Trial of a mass murderer
The trial of George Tiller, the most notorious abortionist in the country, starts today. Tiller has a practice in Wichita, Kansas which specializes in late-term abortions. The trial revolves around whether Tiller received the proper sign-off from a second doctor before performing late-term abortions, which is required by Kansas state law.
Pray that this man receives justice, but more importantly, pray for his soul that the Lord would bring him to salvation. No one is outside the Lord’s infinite mercy.
“I did not come to call the righteous but sinners.” (Matthew 9:13)
“There will be rejoicing among the angels of God over one sinner who repents” (Luke 15:10)
It is truly a struggle for me to think of this man without hatred. However, if God’s mercy is great enough to forgive, heal, convert, and love this man, how pitiful of me not to strive for that same love. Contemplating this I realize how true it is that we have not even begun to conceive of the love of God and what He has in store for those who are His.
