Woman Praises God For Changing Mind On Abortion

Psalm 127:3 NCV Children are a gift from the Lord; babies are a reward.

A British woman has been telling everyone that God is great after Christians gave her the hope to save the life of her child rather than going through with an abortion.

Suzan Briggs, 27, named her now 8-month-old daughter Miracle.

Briggs told the BBC that she had scheduled an abortion because she already had three children and didn’t think she could handle a fourth child.  She arrived at the appointment only to be met by members of the pro-life group Abort 67.

“They started preaching the word of God and telling me abortions aren’t good,” she told the BBC. “They told me God would help me and give me strength.  I tried not to listen to them, but they were praying for me and I was crying and shaking.  The way they talked to me gave me faith and their encouragement made me decide to keep the baby.”

But the group didn’t just talk her out of the abortion and leave her hanging.  The group stayed in touch with Briggs, bringing her clothes for the baby and other supplies she needed to get through her pregnancy.

“When I finally saw my daughter, I thought, ‘How could I have wanted to terminate this baby?’” she explained. “Everybody says she’s so cute. When they say that, I thank God I didn’t do it.”
