The Wholly Innocent


Prayer For The Wholly Innocent




"A voice is heard in Ramah,lamentation and bitter weeping. Rachel is weeping for her children; she refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are not" (Jeremiah 31:15).


Lord Jesus, Giver of life, I entrust to your hands all aborted babies who have been robbed of life. I commend to You especially those aborted by the brutal and violent partial-birth procedure. With You, I lament and weep over their helplessness, their pain, and the injustice of this barbaric destruction of life.

Jesus answer their cry for help. Heal each baby from the trauma and pain of such a gruesome execution. Aware of what was taking place during their dying, heal their memories of all fear, rejection, pain and loss.

Give peace to any restless souls, wholeness to their little severed bodies, joy to their fearful memories, and love to their innocent and sensitive hearts.

Take them Lord Jesus into the fullness of Your Kingdom where they can experience Your love and tenderness. Amen.
