Do you feel like your past abortion has made you more afraid? Do you find yourself having a lot more anxiety when you think about certain scenarios? Does this affect your daily life?

Fear is a really big deal, and it’s hard to live with. You are not alone in feeling this way. With 1 in 4 women having had at least one abortion by the age of 45, and a large percentage of these women experiencing negative mental health effects afterward, fear is extremely common after an abortion.

Just because it’s common, though, doesn’t mean that it’s ok, and it doesn’t mean that we have to live like this forever. Today, I’m going to go over 3 common fears that post-abortive women face and how to heal from them. I pray that this episode blesses you and brings you peace!

Have you heard someone say “God planned for me to have an abortion so I could help others in the future?” I think this is a belief that some of us want to have, but there are some concerns associated with this type of thinking. It’s hard though, because we know that God knows everything - so if He knew we were going to do this, did that make it a part of His plan?

We’re going to look at what scripture says to help us have a full understanding of how our abortion and other circumstances in our lives affect God’s plans for us. I pray this blesses you!

Have you been considering sharing your abortion testimony? Has God placed it on your heart to go and tell? Have you had a desire to help out in the pro-life movement, but feel alone and terrified at the thought of having to share all of the messy parts of your story?

More than once this week, I have heard Revelation 12:11 and I believe that God has intentionally placed that scripture on my heart at this specific time for a reason. Perhaps it’s this episode?

Regardless of your answers to the questions I just asked, I pray you’ll listen to this episode with an open heart to hear how God can use your story for His good, no matter what capacity in which you share it.

Life is a series of choices, isn’t it? We could dive down a deep rabbit hole thinking about all of these past choices we have made and what would have happened if we had done something different. From less serious things to our abortion decision, there is a huge spectrum of circumstances that could be different if we had taken a different path, and it’s totally natural to think about what life would have looked like if we had done something different.

However, sometimes staying in that place can keep us stuck. I pray that this episode helps you remember that it's ok to feel the feels, but it's also ok to let go of our pain and accept God's peace.

Each of us has different circumstances surrounding our abortions. Some of us were choosing to do this to hide a lifestyle choice, others of us were afraid we couldn’t financially afford our children, others of us may have been coerced by the father or one of our parents. Whatever the reason you chose abortion, my guess is that there were others involved somehow. Others that you went to to seek guidance and advice on what to do.

It's highly possible that some of those people are unapologetic for their involvement in your experience. If that's so, it must be really difficult for you to not only live with, but to try to forgive. How do we forgive when people aren't even the least bit sorry?

I pray today's episode helps you so that you can get one step closer to the peace that God has for you!
