My friend told me today that she is pregnant. She is 17.
I know that's young to have a child, but there is always adoption if you can't take care of it. Her ex-boyfriend is trying to convince her to get an abortion.
She does not know what to do! :(
I don't want her to get an abortion! She told me that she didn't want to get one, but her ex is really persistent.
Please pray for her so that she makes the right decision! :prayer:


P.S. If you have any suggestions of what i should tell her, please tell me!

Welcome to CF :wave:
I would encourage her to go to her parents with this, so that she will get the proper prenatal care and counseling from them, and also her doctor or a Christian pregnancy center if there is one near her.
I will keep her in my prayers :angel:

Tell her that if she gives in and get an abortion all her life she'll be sorry, to give a life is a privelege, to give a death is a curse. Besides after an abortion there is a high risk to stay infertile, she should know about that. Our dearest Lord may help you.

P.S. I'll pray for you and your friend.

JC, I will be praying for your friend.

I would suggest her reading:
"A Voice in the Wind",
book 1 of Mark of the Lion series
by : Francine Rivers
(Christian book).

It has a similar situation.
The Father says he doesn't want it &
the girl is convinced by a supposed friend to have an obortion.

Then later, the girl has another ...
The Father says he doesn't want it &
the girl is convinced by a supposed friend to have the baby taken away.

The book deals with the physical & emotional of both instances.

God bless your kind heart, JC girl. But even if she did it she badly needs comfort now, show your care and compassion to her.

"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. " - 1John 1:9

Show her this verse to her and tell her that there is always a way out, the Lord loves her even now and if she opens her heart to Him He will carry her through this terrible situation.

I've talked to my friend now and she did the abortion.
I was a little sad but still supportive. I can't force the baby on her.
But then she started joking about it! Who jokes about killing a baby?
I'm really mad at her now, but I didn't say that to her.

I hate hearing news about abortions :(:( Such a tragedy.. although, your friend didn't have many options

Having a sense of humor about it is a way of covering up underlying feelings which are probably unbearable for her right now, thus the humor. I will continue to pray for her. God bless you for caring so much.

Just keep praying for her and she'll understand that it's a real tragedy, now she needs God even more that before the abortion. Nothing can wipe her sin off but just the blood of Lord Jesus. You do perfectly well - don't blame her even if you want to. Just pray, and don't be mad, just look at her this way - she is a sinner, miserable sinner, but for these sinners Lord Jesus gave His own life, so even now she needs compassion in prayers. Lord be merciful to her. please, enter her life and show that You're the most precious One.Our Heavenly Father bless your kind and loving heart and suport you in prayer.

Agreed.

Also, hate does NOT draw the lost to Christ, LOVE is the answer.

Praying for you both. :prayer:

It's a tough scene. May God give you an opening, strength, and wisdom to say the right thing at the right time.

My heartfelt prayers for that and that your friend gets the help she so needs during this crucial time. Also praying for the life of this unborn child. :prayer:
