In the darkness of the womb it is conceived.
In an intimate moment, according to God’s plan and within his sight, life begins. There is more than just another body that has been created. It is a precious soul that will exist
forever. It is a precious soul, given by God, and it is a soul that will need to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ and be brought to water of Holy Baptism.
David wrote, “Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.” And yet, by the grace and power of God, he also
wrote: “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and
wonderfully make; your works are wonderful. I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was
woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body.” In America today, the future of that child, given by God, is dependent
upon the choice of the mother. She can, according to law, choose to end that life which has been entrusted to her by the creator of all things.

LORD who created you... “Fear not: for I have redeemed you, I have called you by your name; you are mine.” You are no different, before the light of day
shined on your face, God knew your name.
