Dear God - Oh My God - My Sweet Lord

Dear God,
My girlfriend had an abortion last month. We talked about it, cried over it and came to a conclusion that its best we lose it. She was devastated after the ordeal as she felt she had lost a little part of herself during this incident. We are both young, desperately searching for better things in life. I am not financially stable or mentally ready to have a kid yet. I was told no one is ever ready.

So dear God, can you give me the courage to forgive myself, be a better man and move on?

Why didnt practice safe sex in the first place??

Accept that it was a mistake. If you keep trying to force yourself into the idea that it was ok, you will never feel better. And get help, people act like you get an abortion and its over and everything okay dokey, but many even commit suicide after a loss like that.

Safe sex doesnt always work, but no matter what people tell you abortion obviously isnt the solution. Talk to a doctor, because mentally, I belive abortion is completly unsafe. Im sorry, may God bless you and your child.
