 Blessed is the Sidewalk Counselor

Pro-Life drbonebrake writes "

OPINION – The work of a sidewalk counselor outside of Planned Parenthood is challenging. They wait in vigil, hoping they will have the opportunity to speak with a pregnant mother before the woman finds her way into a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic. By Planned Parenthood's statistics, 98% of pregnant women who enter Planned Parenthood's clinics will allow the life of the child growing within the women's womb to be taken.



As pro-life counselors stand in vigil, waiting in the hopes to save a life, they are also faced with those who deride them for what they do. In the report of one sidewalk counselor who stands at the corner of the street leading to the Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in Colorado Springs, CO, she recounted that an elderly couple in a bright red car pulled up to the sidewalk and rolled down their window to ask, "So you want to just throw these women over a cliff?" The statement equated saving the life of a child conceived, but not yet born, as throwing the mother over a cliff because she would be encouraged to have her baby. The counselor suggested that some people think killing babies at any age is wrong, to which the elderly woman replied, “You're nuts!” and drove off.

When faced with all a side walk counselor witnesses, one might wonder how they face the challenge? The answer can be found when a woman stops to talk or stops to relate she has decided not to give the life of her baby over to the abortionist. In a recent report of a Colorado Springs sidewalk counselor, he related how a blue car drove past him into the Planned Parenthood parking lot. The two women who got out entered and remained inside Planned Parenthood for at least 45 minutes, but when they came out, they stopped by where he was standing with his signs and told him, “I didn't do it. I'm not going to have the abortion. I'm not going to kill my baby.”

While he could not say for certain what caused the woman to choose life for her child, he knew she saw, as she drove past, the pro-life signs. The fact that she stopped to tell the sidewalk counselor that she would not let Planned Parenthood take her baby is perhaps an indication that a child was saved because someone cared enough to be standing there.

While there are challenges for being a sidewalk counselor, how blessed they must feel when they come to realize lives are being saved through them. It is not just the child in the womb, but the children of that child as well. Generations will come from that moment which could have been ended if a sidewalk counselor was not standing there. Blessed too are those who pray and advocate each day so that lives are not forever lost in these clinics before these children ever have a chance to experience the world external to the womb of their mother.
