As some of you may know I'm expecting baby # 8 in June.

Due to my advanced age :blink: I have to have certain test done to ensure the health of my child.

Yesterday the doctor's office called me to scheduel a 2nd degree ultra sound. The first hospital they called for an appointment couldn't set an appointment until the end of February. My doctor informed me that was too far away, because if the test came back positive for these deseases I needed time to terminate my pregnancy. :(

I let the doctor know in uncertain terms that that is not even a concideration no matter what the test results were!!!!!

How could parents, who are having a baby, take care of the mother and baby, seek health care, and go thru that far in a pregnancy, then say "kill my baby because something MAY be wrong"

How disgusting, disturbed, and selfish is that!!!!

:blink: I'm SO with you there. I would question whether you even HAVE to have this testing done...I mean, if all they're doing is checking to see whether THEY think you should terminate, it seems a little silly to me. Why wouldn't they just be happy with a standard 20-week U/S to check on baby's overall health, the placenta's position and such?

ok, for one, I did not know that 39 was advanced age, lol.

can you not just tell them that you will not do the test? they can't refuse youany other service if you do not have the test, can they? they obviously don't realize that you would never terminate the life of your child. (wow, number 8)

I'm with you there. I don't think they can force me. But my husband and I decided to do it anyways for over all health of the little one, and to see if its a boy or girl.

Well Iguess when it comes to having babies 39 is OOOLLLLLDDDD :( , The doctor certainly knows I wouldn't terminate now after I got done telling him. :blink:

But it is cool having ultra sounds. I wanna see my little one.

Grace to you,

My wife and I were a bit older when we had our last child and they asked us the same thing. I looked the Doctor square in the eye and said," it doesn't matter what condition this child will be in, it will be a gift from God and He will gain all the Glory. We aren't interested in the tests, our Faith is in Jesus." Then my wife nodded and agreed. The only tests we took were the ones that tested for bacteria and such that might cause problems with the delivery. Those tests are incredibly error prone and I know of many women who have tested false positive for a whole rack of maladies.

Stand your ground beloved of God and let them know who the Lord is. :blink:

You should also read our fearless Leader at Worthy's testimony. George and his wife were told to abort their baby because he was going to be born with a malady. However, after George peeled his wife Rivka's fist off of the Doctors forehead, :( (just kidding) they put their Faith in God and prayer.

The child was born perfectly healthy and normal and is one doggon' handsome kid. He is a sincere blessing and I know because I got to hold him when he was a wee little baby.I also had the deepest honor one can have in this life, partnering with the Faithhful and God in praying for a child like this.

May the Lord Himself watch over your child and fearfullly forming him/her in the image of our alltogether Lovely Savior Jesus, in complete health so that God may gain all the Glory, Amen! :laugh:

Peace,

Dave

He is, indeed. Think of the absolute tragedy of ending a life that was sent by God....think of how sad He must be that people do these things. But we know He is there to receive these rejected souls into His Kingdom.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
