Some people have a hard time speaking up. When it comes to the pro-life issue, committed believers need to ask: I. What Am I Made of? A. Blunt warning: Life is hard and there are challenges we need to be up for (Ps. 86:7; Phil. 4:13; Deut. 31:6) 1. Standing strong in adversity can reinforce our faith (I Pet. 1:7; Jam. 1:2-4) II. Am I Willing to Do Something? A. For those innocents facing death, we must step up to help and rescue them if possible (Ex. 23:7) 1. Despite getting involved in controversy and backlash, we can find strength from wisdom (Prov. 31:8; 24:5) a. Our tools in confronting illogical indignation are science and reason (Ps. 139:13-16; I Cor. 14:20; Isa. 1:18) III. Who Is Aware of Our Excuses? A. Discretion is important, but the God Who knows us intimately knows we’re aware of the atrocities (Prov. 2:11; Heb. 4:13) 1. We can’t plead ignorance of the incredible gift of human life with its unknown potential (Ps. 8:5) 2. For the believer, there’s no room for indifference and cowardice (Rom. 12:9; Heb. 10:38; Jam. 4:17) We need to pray fervently for direction and then do what’s right- for God’s sake (Matt. 25:21)
