If you didn’t watch the news last month, there were a lot of women in Washington, DC on January 19, 2018.  The March for Life is an annual protest against the macabre decision to legalize the murder of children. This march began in 1973, which was the year Roe (v) Wade legalized abortion throughout the United States. The organizers of the march described the history of the pro-life movement to the reporter. As I listened it occurred to me that the pro-life movement didn’t start in 1973. It actually started in ancient times.

“Don’t call me Naomi,” she responded. “Instead, call me Mara, for the Almighty has made life very bitter for me. I went away full, but the LORD has brought me home empty. Why call me Naomi when the LORD has caused me to suffer and the Almighty has sent such tragedy upon me” (Ruth 1: 20-21 NLT)?

Do you ever have an attitude like Naomi? Do you feel like God answers other prayers, but not yours? That God blesses other people more than you?
