At the conference over the weekend, I had the pleasure of meeting the creator of this short animated film about a baby's life in the womb before abortion. It is powerful, emotive and extremely beautiful. Zac Bavas has with great care and thoughtfulness created a visual masterpiece that gives a very different view of pregnancy from the baby's perspective. You get to see the baby grow and change. You get to hear what the baby hears as she grows-the good and the bad. And then you get to see the terrible truth of abortion- light entering the womb, a frightened baby, and then nothing. Zach and the film team have woven this film together without being gory and unreal. It is truthful and I can tell you, I cried uncontrollably. I cried because this is the future that was offered to us for Sam and many other babies on a day to day basis. Did you know that in Victoria it is legal to kill babies up until birth and if they survive the birth they can just be left to die? That law was passed in October 2008, 10 days after Sam's birth. In the very state and city where he was given the chance to live. And yet our government recently stopped the ban on all live cattle exports because of animal cruelty. God help us.
I have included the link to where you can buy the movie for only $10. It may not be something you will watch every day but I can guarantee it once you see it, you will never be the same again. If you are interested in saving the lives of unborn babies and also supporting and loving their mums, I would encourage you to have a look. Please pray for Australia's mothers and babies and also for our government.
“And he will answer, ‘I tell you the truth, when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me.’(Matthew 25:45)
