For who is able to give judgment&nbsp;for this vast people of yours?\u201d (1 Kings 3: 7,9)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A well known&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/bible.usccb.org\/bible\/1kings\/3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Old Testament story<\/a>&nbsp;involves two mothers fighting over a newborn baby and each claiming to be the rightful mother. The women went to the king in order for justice to be served.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThen the king said: \u201cOne woman claims, \u2018This, the living one, is my son, the dead one is yours.\u2019 The other answers, \u2018No! The dead one is your son, the living one is mine.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The king continued, \u201cGet me a sword.\u201d When they brought the sword before the king,<a><\/a>&nbsp;he said, \u201cCut the living child in two, and give&nbsp;<strong><em>HALF<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;to one woman and&nbsp;<strong><em>HALF&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong>to the other.\u201d (1Kings 3: 23-25)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course we know the rightful mother begged for the child not to be cut in&nbsp;<strong><em>HALF&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong>and she was willing to sacrifice her own motherhood in order for the child to be saved. King Solomon then declared the proper mother upon witnessing this love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen all Israel heard the judgment the king had given, they were in awe of him, because they saw that the king had in him the wisdom of God for giving right judgment.\u201d (1Kings 3: 27)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here we are, two and a half months post Roe, and this case was just now brought before a lower court judge after sitting in Ohio\u2019s Supreme Court with no movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon this ruling from Judge Jenkins, Ohio abortion champions are celebrating being able to cut a baby in&nbsp;<strong><em>HALF.<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;We prolifers cry and pray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cry over the injustice of our American and Ohio way of electing officials and enacting laws in the proper process, only for laws to be overturned through an activist judge\u2019s interpretation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cry that people actually believe this type of violence is needed in our great nation, or anywhere in the world for that matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cry that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/news\/65-million-bodies-industry-disposes-aborted-children\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">over 65 million<\/a>&nbsp;mothers have been sold the lie of abortion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cry for the mother that chose life last week, but then changed her mind after this ruling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cry that her child is now dead and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sistersoflife.org\/healing-after-abortion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">she will carry a heavy heart<\/a>&nbsp;from this loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But just as King Solomon prayed before he began his time as a judge, we continue to pray as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We pray for our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/cincinnatirighttolife.org\/candidates-general-election-november-8-2022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">elected officials<\/a>, that the wisdom of King Solomon may shine down on their law making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We pray for our upcoming election, most especially that only judges that respect life fill our courts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We pray for an end to abortion in our laws and in the minds of Americans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We pray for all women&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/optionline.org\/center-locator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">facing a pregnancy<\/a>&nbsp;decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We pray mothers choose life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A full-term pregnancy for mothers is\u00a040 weeks gestation.
