The Clay

There was a time
 I was a clay
I felt no love
I breathe no life
I had no mind

But then one day
He came to me and
took me gently by His hands
He molded me like a work of art

He breathe me with His life
He clothe me with His love
Embraced me by His light
And adopted me as His Child

IN DEFENSE FOR LIFE: Why we should fight abortion

The first thing that comes to mind whenever we speak of abortion is a human embryo, or a fetus and placenta being removed from the uterus inside the mother's womb. Often we forgot to think that abortion impedes life or the wondrous creation of God in man as His greatest creation. And when certain situation arises such as saving the life of a pregnant woman, or in most cases saving the future of young people who in curiosity indulged in a premarital sex. And later developed into pregnancy, we cannot just simply avoid the questions of morality.

For the past centuries,  the concept of life and its origin has always been the subject of scribbling among great thinkers, educators, theologians and philosophers. Mostly the world luminaries of religion and philosophy attributed life to God as its primordial source, that is the creative origin of the human race. Such people agreed on the sanctity of life, its nature and its significance to God, to creation, and to the entire human race. But when we speak of life in the light of abortion noticeably the world is somehow divided between those who are in favor of abortion and those who are against it. The average man knows that life is precious. It is sacred in the eyes of its Maker. Yet, when a man and his woman are confronted with the problem of unwanted pregnancy more often they tend to  forget the sanctity of life and carelessly resort into thinking of annihilating life to easily avoid responsibility. This usually happens among young people in general, who indulge in premarital sex.

"All things are created twice," Stephen Covey wrote in his best selling book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.  Firstly, an object is created in the mind or in the ideal world as Plato would philosophized, where the object takes its ideal form. Secondly, the object is manifested into the real world taking its material form. Contrarily,  human life can be classified into two aspects -- that life which pertains to  the spirit (e.g. the spiritual) and the other is that which pertains to the flesh (e.g. the material). Moreover, the life of the spirit pertains to  the human soul while the life of the flesh pertains to the human body. This is very true in the cycle of life between birth and death.  During birth the spirit is incarnated into the human flesh while taking its material form. While upon death the human body is extinguished and the human spirit goes back to its ideal form. Worthy of interest, something significant to the human spirit or the human soul happens in the cycle of life between birth and death. The creation of the human spirit is not completed in the ideal or the spiritual world. It necessitated the material world for its completion where the spirit takes the human flesh and later extinguished through death, thus achieving its own perfection. Therefore, in the first creation the human spirit is imperfect and achieves its perfection only after the second creation. Notwithstanding the fact that there are certain levels of perfection in God's creation. Furthermore, during the second creation, the human spirit who owns and governs the flesh experiences the material world gaining significant knowledge and information about the cosmos, the world and human life and its relation to God and the universe. 

Thus, the spirits of the unborn children who were victims of abortion are crying to God for justice because they were not given a chance to live a human life which is necessary for spiritual perfection. God set the rule and gave the law to mankind through his only begotten Son Jesus Christ as the concrete expression of his love - the perfect example of Jesus  that the world should emulate. Where God who is infinitely the most perfect being in heaven came down to earth not as God but as a servant  in the nature and likeness of men in order to show the Way - the way to holiness and perfection, and everlasting life. Hence, for the human soul to gain spiritual perfection and eternal life it needs to have a human body and experience how to live a human life strictly through the teachings and examples of our Lord Jesus Christ. Finally, human beings have an utmost obligation to God and humanity for caring life as a gift. And it is for  this reason that we should fight against abortion.
