Abortion at 15

I had an abortion at 15, at 23 I had a baby boy. Without realizing why and with no certain things to cause it, I could look at my son when I would get sad about something and feel the pain of my abortion all over again as well as a feeling like I didn't deserve the second chance at a family.

After completing this study I no longer feel the pain. I feel free like I've never felt before in my life. God took a huge weight off my shoulders once I repented and asked him for his forgiveness that I once feared he would never give to me.

I feel like I'm not only a better person for finally opening my eyes to God's grace but also as a mother to my child. I couldn't have done this without Becky. May God bless her and every counselor who helps to guide each of us through this study and show us what God's grace can do for each of us if only we open our hearts
