"O Lord, do not withhold your mercy from me...my sins have so engulfed me that I cannot see...and my heart sinks within me" (Psalm 40:12-13).
Reflection: A woman who had an abortion wrote, "I was deceived by all I had read or heard ... It was a rough procedure. I knew as soon as my uterus was violated that I had participated in a murder. My spirit fragmented and the evil that was in that clinic came in all around me. I lost my mind."
Prayer: I lift up to you, Lord, all those enduring mental anguish from their abortion. Send your Spirit to heal them. Amen.
