But here I am, at age 63 - happily and proudly proclaiming the life and liberty that only Jesus can provide! I allowed Jesus to grab a hold of me and set me free from my sin in November of 1998. In the 23 years since that decision: • I’ve taught Sunday School for over 15 years. • I was a teacher for Children’s Church. • I became a Vacation Bible School director and coordinator for the acting portion of VBS. • I led the Women’s Ministry and taught Bible studies. • And I have been a volunteer with my local pregnancy resource center since 2018 as a peer counselor and an After Abortion Care Bible Study facilitator. • I’ve written a book and am helping women recognize and acknowledge their value and worth to our Abba Father. • Personally I have been happily married to a godly man for over 36 years. • We have raised and home schooled two sons who are serving, worshiping and following Christ. This past year both of them married beautiful, God-fearing, Proverbs 31 women. And I am now experiencing the grandma pangs as I wait for the Lord to expand our family! I said all of these things not because I want or need man’s applause or recognition. That “resume” is all for the glory of God. He took a woman mired in sin and redeemed her for His purpose. I have been on both sides of the abortion debate. I understand the feeling of “no other choice.” And I understand the feeling of possibly never having existed. What if my mother had aborted me? The chain reaction of not having been plays in the theater of my mind like a retelling of “It’s A Wonderful Life.” Teary eyed I look at my sons and I can not imagine a world without them. continued on page 34... “But God. I love those words… But God was at work in the mother’s heart and she did not go. In February of 1959 their daughter was born. Me.” Saundra L.
