Consider It

Think about Mary’s biography from the Christmas story in the Bible. She was a young teenage virgin that was engaged to be married. Through no fault of her own, she finds herself pregnant with a special needs Child (the Son of God). Mary have been confused and frightened about what was going to happen to her body in the near future. (She also could have been in a state of complete peace.) Her fiancée was not happy with her about this newest change in their future. Maybe her family was upset, and the community around her was not in favor of this pregnancy.

From a male viewpoint, whether you are pro-life (or pro-choice) when it comes to the topic of pregnancy, we can all agree that a young female teenager getting pregnant with unsupportive parents (and a boyfriend that’s decided to be uninvolved) could be a very confusing choice for someone emotionally immature. Abortion might seem like the quick choice to eradicate this challenge so as few people as possible would know about it.

If the above story is I described is yours, remember there are thousands of couples who are unable to conceive (for whatever the reason may be). Your baby would be a gift from God. A couple in this situation would provide a loving home for your child. Before making any choice, please consider all your options. You are not the only one who will be affected by this decision. Choose what you can live with.
