An Angel With Red Tape

By Ian Kelly

Bound4LIFE’s impact is not only being felt in our Nations capitol but in neighborhoods all across the country. The following story was sent to us from, Natalie, our Chapter Leader in Birmingham, AL.

She writes, “This man walked into the Planned Parenthood with his girlfriend and stared at me as he went. His glance shook me and tears streamed down as I prayed for Him in my spirit-- my heart was breaking from his desperate stare. Moments later he came out and broke down as he locked eyes with me again. He went behind the abortion clinic. His girlfriend came out looking for him and only saw me- she looked at me hopelessly not knowing where to find him. I took off my tape to tell her where he had gone. After talking she returned into the abortion clinic and he stayed out by the garbage bins beside the abortion clinic. I kept praying for him. Later, to my shock, he came out to the sidewalk where I was-- just staring at me. I felt the Holy Spirit wanting me to speak. I came up to him to pray over him and encourage him…He said he didn't want to do this- He was praying that God's hand would stop it from happening. He drove 90 miles an hour so that a policeman would pull him over-- but no police pulled him over. I got to minister to him for an hour and half. He said the prayers already were giving him more peace and hope. I gave him my bound4life email and he gave me his so that I could check in after praying for a week. (She was going in to schedule the abortion that day and would be getting the abortion the next week) This is what He wrote me Sunday night!

…I remember the day I saw an angel, she had red tape covering her mouth SCREAMING LIFE!!! God’s eyes were upon me when she looked at me. I was fighting my guilty conscience. I felt her yes breaking through the ice of my fear. Not with condemnation, but with a spiritual voice, whispered to my heart… there is hope.” 

The abortion was scheduled for the Tuesday after we talked and prayed; I did not talk to her (the mother) …(I) just prayed and asked the Lord to put his hand on this cause I was defeated… Last Friday I got a message from her saying that the baby was fine! She went to the doctor and had a (sonogram). She was sorry for the wrong approach she took on this situation.  THANK YOU! GOD IS USING YOU IN SUCH AWSOME WAY... “

    Praise Jesus!!!! This is encouraging and gives me hope. Every siege I have held has felt like such a failure, but this gives me hope that someday I will make a difference through the work of the Holy Spirit and lives will be saved! -Amy B4L in TN
