2 Chronicles 24:22
King Joash did not remember the kindness Zechariah's father Jehoiada had shown him but killed his son, who said as he lay dying, "May the Lord see this and call you to account."

I chose this verse because the issue of abortion weighs heavy on my heart. I look back at Genesis 4: 9-11: Here God asked Cain "Where is your brother Abel?" In vs. 10 God says that Abel's blood call to Him from the ground. and because of what Cain had done he was under a curse.
Now in this verse King Joash forgot the kindness Jehoiada had shown him but killed his son. As this son lay dying he says: "May the Lord see this and call you to account."
It is very sobering to think of all the innocent babes who have been and are being aborted. I have no doubt that their blood also calls out to God. I know that many times I have felt so helpless, because I want this Holocaust to end. Yet I don't know what I can do to make it stop.
I wonder why way back in the 70's when the signing of Roe vs Way (not sure if that is spelled correctly) that the churches did not immediately band together in protest against this inhuman action. I wonder if they had all stood up and cried out together day after day. Weather it would have turned out much different?
