Kenny,

I'm sorry about this whole thing. Kris gave you some good links.

Examine each of the things you did that led to this event and seek God's forgiveness and healing. He will give it to you. He doesn't want you to harm yourself, and He's not ready to take you Home. He has a purpose for your life.

It is normal to hate the person who does something like this to you. Most relationships are destroyed by abortion. I have no idea what got into her, but it sounds really bizarre. It doesn't sound normal to me. She may well be hurting, but you are in no position to help her at this time. Concentrate first on restoring your relationship with God.

You were that baby's father, and it is natural for you to want to protect him or her. I don't find your reaction surprising. I am gratified that you haven't suppressed how you feel, because your openness will lead to healing and forgiveness.

Look for a woman who is worthy of you, and make a commitment to her before starting a family. Cherish your wife and your children. God will redeem the situation for you.

Remember how God forgave David and Paul for their egregious sins. Jesus died for ALL your sins, including the ones that led up to this. Accept His forgiveness, and then His word, and forgive yourself.

We will be praying for you. Please keep in touch and let us know what happens.

Take care,
Pat
