Second trimester abortion is an abortion done between 13 to 24 weeks of pregnancy. There are reasons why more women decide to do this. The process of second trimester abortion may need more days to perform…An average of 2 to 3 days because of the requirement of the procedure.
For a second trimester abortion, they use a process call dilation and evacuation, which includes a combination of vacuum and surgical instruments. Read more here about the process of a second trimester abortion. Now it is know in the second trimester of pregnancy, all the virtual organs of thebabies are developed. At this point they can feel pain. It’s hard to imagine the baby going through this process.
But since abortion is legal in U.S, women have the right to terminate a baby she carries at anytime during her pregnancy for any reason. And a lot more women choose to abort babies for social reasons (not ready or unexpected). It is hard to say social reason is a good enough reason to kill. It is simply hard to justify taking life for that reason.

Teenage Abortion in U.S
In the United States, teenage abortion is legal in all 50 states. Some require parental consent while others does not. So far, there are more than 20 states that require no parental permission for a teen to go through abortion, a number too high for kids at that age to make decision something that big.
However, many have fought for states to enact a parental permission law because parent want to protect their children by choosing to allow their teen to go with birthing their babies instate of choosing to allow their teens to go along with abortion. There are now over 29 states that have made parental constant laws. And among them, there shown to be declines in teenage abortion.
Effect of teen abortion
Teenage abortion has long lasting effects. Risks rang from physical to emotional to psychological. And the greatest risk of abortion is death. Ultimately, however, the decision of abortion falls on you. That’s why it is important to educate yourself about abortion. Because whether you choose to give birth to your baby or abort is a decision that is not short lived. It’ll affects affect you life time, because you have to live with the decision until you die.
Educate yourself with abortion
The hardest thing with the decision to choose to give your baby a chance to live or not is not an easy one. Because regardless of your decision—whether it’s birth or not—will people around you will both be supported and condemn you. You won’t be able to please everyone. The best thing to do is educate yourself about this issue so your decision can be informed. You need informed decision to make the right and the best choice for you and your baby. It is difficult because there is no turning back. Once it’s done, its’ done. There is no turning back, whatever you decide to do, that you will live with.
Other options
Two of the most popular reasons for teen abortion is not being able to afford a baby, and not feeling mature or responsible enough to raise a child. If you are stressing with these two issues, there is hope. You have other options—believe it or not—besides abortion. You can give your baby up for adoption. Adoption is a great option in fact, if you don’t want or don’t think you are ready for a baby. They will thank you later (greatly) for giving them a chance to life. So consider your options.

Abortion Costs
What determines abortion cost is the stage of pregnancy at which abortion is preformed. It is determine that earlier abortion is less complicate so it cost less. And later abortion has more complication so the cost is proportional to expected complication. In 1995, it was estimate that the cost of abortion was $200 to $400 for early abortion; and for late abortion, the cost is between $ 400. After the 16th week, however, the price jumps up $ 100 a week.
[Source: "Susan Dudley, Ph.D. "Economics of Abortion" National Abortion Federation 1996]
Another things that determines the cost of abortion is the procedure and clinic that provides the service. Surgical abortion seems to cost more, and a lot more after the certain time frame (later) do to more complication. Now first trimester procedures cost ranges from$ 500 to $ 1000. The second trimester cost range from $ 600 to $ 10,000 dollars. And some insurance plan covers this.
There are also some subsidies available for abortion costs. In 2001, Guttmacher Institute conducted a study to determine the average cost for abortion in the U.S. They determine that the average cost to be $468. This number has most likely increased due to inflation. But when subsidies were included, the average cost for abortion in the U.S drops to $372.
Adoption Costs
In compression, adoption and abortion cost are susbtantionally different. Though adoption has variety of facts that determines costs just like abortion, it is significantly more expansive that abortion. This is sad when you consider what each side is doing; almost twist when you think about it really. According to cost, it seems abortion is being rewarded while adoption is not.
Before the federal tax credit, average adoption cost in the U.S is between 25,000 to $35,000.

Abortion is an ongoing issue which will eventually affect everyone in some way. I write about it because I’m against abortion, and I believe I can raise awareness this way. Not to mention I have the right to do so. In a way I’m protesting. It makes no sense to see abortion taking place while I do nothing about it even though I’m against it. I’m aware of other methods to fight this issue, but I believe I’m supposed to take this approach.
There are three goals I’m trying to accomplish by doing this. I want to raise abortion awareness, have information for those wanting to educate themselves about abortion or at least point them to the information, and I want to have a place for those who are against this same issue to express their views as to why they feel that way.
I have passion for this issue, so when I write about it, my passion will be express in my words. No matter how I come across, however, I’m not condemning a person. My beef is with abortion not people. Even if you’re pro-choice, I have nothing against you but everything against abortion. And it is possible to condemn an issue without condemning a person doing it.
For example, I’m a sinner yet loved by God. Though He hates sin He love sinners (me). That’s how I go about this, and that’s how I see this issue. The same way He can love me and condemn my sin is how I view the issue of abortion. Not people. An abortion for social reason (not ready, unplanned) is unjustifiable. You cannot justify taking a life in that way. And I simply write to make that known.

A friend and I were talking about destiny the other day. We were discussing destiny, pertaining to whether it is already made or one makes it. I thought this would be a good topic to discus and get others view on. Because, I honestly believe that growth can sometimes come from disagreement.
When the thing you believe and deem as right is challenged, it forces you to ponder and review it; it also make you weight what the other person is saying. This in my opinion is a good ground for growth.
So what is your take on destiny? Do you think your destiny is already made and you are here to discover it, or do you believe you make your destiny by decisions you make and your everyday choice? Because as we were discussing the matter, both sides of the argument became seems to be right when were supported.
Explain why you believe one or the other. And some might even believe it is both ways. But why do you believe that?

Just because a song is label as “Worship Song” doesn’t mean it’s anointed.
What makes an anointed song different from the any worship song is that anointed songs are written in a secret place. It’s reveal from the knowledge of the Anointed one and His holy presence. It is written in a holy place from an encounter with the Holy one. It is release from the secret and intimate bedroom of the Lover (The King) and the Loved (receiver of the song).
Anointed song is far more than a worship song; Not all Christian songs are anointed, and only few worship songs are anointed. Anointed songs are released by the Holy God to those whose hearts are touched and ruin by the holy being. The words are a fable description of their experience with the living Jesus.
The songs are not regurgitated nor are they received from another man‘s revelation. It is unique and different, one of a kind to be exact. It never entered this atmosphere. Its origin is the originator, the uncreated King Himself. It is not rehearsed, and it can’t be rehearse with intention to carry the same uncompromised anointing.
Anointed songs are different from any other worship song because they are not written by artist nor their talents; they’re produce from a heart that is rapture by unexplainable experience. You spirit knows and can testify when it hears one.
When anointed songs are redo by different artists, they’re meaning and splendors glory and rupturing affect on the heart is compromised. They simply become a ruin. This is because the artist redoing it can only rehearse the sound that he/she takes in by their natural ear. So as sincere as their heart may be, it can’t produce the original song. That’s because anointed songs are not meant to be reproduce.
When you hear it redone by another artist, your spirit can sense it. And to be honest, it displeases me greatly. This is because it discredits the original song and brings it to a common worship song, stripping it of its anointing and glory, its uncompromised purity and holiness.
So I wish artist would stop doing it; there has never been justice done by doing so.
This is the difference between anointed song and any regular worship song. And just because a song is a worship song, it doesn’t mean it’s anointed. And when artist rehears anointed song and redo it, it becomes just like any other worship song.

Worship is.?
I just want to know what worship is from your understanding. Share what you know worship to be with the world. At least help me with my dilemma.
Here it is…
I use to know what to do when I come in front of the Father. It was like voluntary body part; I could function without thinking and without mediated action. It was like I had a formula subconsciously, that showed me how to act in front of the King. But lately, it seems that I’m lost, and without any form of recollection. It’s like I don’t know what to do.
Is this normal when you come in front of the King to worship Him? What is worship really? I read what the definition says but it didn’t help me.
Your thoughts please

What can I say to Him that has not already been said? At times I found my worship to be inadequate yet there in it is glory, otherwise why would he require it. True He even demand praise from the mouth of babes. “From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.” –Psalm 8:2
How about you? Have you ever felt your worship is Insufficient?
Here is one of the moments I found my praise and worship to be insufficient. Feel free to share your thoughts….

Inadequate in Giving God worship
The pain of my human limitation has finally dawned on me, or should I say, my mind is now capable of perceiving it. My inadequacy was revealed to me in worship. It occurred to me that no matter how hard I try, I can never give my God the glory that is “due” Him. I’m not capable or able to give him what He truly deserves. The thought that He is the Lord of all existence itself makes me tremble.
Before time, He was able to acquire everything He needed and wanted. By His mighty hand, He brought honor to himself; so what can I give him? He has created me, and as His creation, I can’t understand Him. Even now, in my inability to fathom, articulate and understand the things of God, He considers this mystery worship. Hum…Nicely phrased by Paul in Roman 11:33, “Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!”
My mediation is an endless pit of thoughts without depth. It shatters me. But yet, in this brokenness, He’s receiving glory because it is His inconceivable nature that causes me to be speechless. And this is worship to Him at its inception. That’s the depth of my God. Glory Be His Name!

Abortion Process, Procedures and Risks
What’s abortion?
Abortion is the physical execution of the fetus in an attempt to end pregnancy; it is also any of various surgical methods for terminating a pregnancy during the first six months, although some procedures are done well over that period. The reasons to undergo abortion vary within individuals, usually from unwanted or unexpected pregnancy (social reasons) to rape; insects, health, to any other reason a woman decides to undergo abortion.
Abortion Procedures
Options of procedure depend on the stage of pregnancy. There are two main procedures widely used: Abortion by Medical and abortion by Surgery. No matter the procedures used, there is always risk that comes with abortion. Being informed and understanding the procedure will benefit you. It might even help you make the right choice for you and your baby.
Medical Abortion
Medical Abortion is a non-surgical form of abortion. It first became available in the early 1970s. “There is little, if any, difference between medical and surgical abortion in terms of safety and efficacy. Thus, both methods are similar from a medical point of view and there are only very few situations where a recommendation for one or the other method for medical reasons can be given” To learn in more details about the process and the risks check out Medical Abortion Procedures.
Surgical abortion
Surgical abortion is an abortion done using surgery procedure. Surgical abortion has many optional procedures than medical abortion. They are Suction Aspiration, Dilation & Curettage, Dilation & Evacuation; Induction Abortion, Dilation and Extraction. Side affect and risks are associate with all of the procedures. To learn in details about all these procedures and risks, visit Surgical Abortion Procedures
Risk of procedures
You can’t remove risk from abortion. There is always a risk. Abortion risks range from physical, physiological to emotional problems. Few things are done to minimize the risk, but the only way to do away with the risk is to not have one. The more knowledge you have about the process and procedures the better. Because it will help you make the right decision for both you and the baby.

Salvation was in the Law
First it was the law. The hope of mankind rested on the power of men because our strength to fulfill the law was our only hope of salvation. Knowing we weren’t able, we tried anyway. We tried to achieve this unrealistic and impossible task of fulfilling the law. It wasn’t that we didn’t know it can’t be done, but if there were any kind of hope for us, it laid in trying. However, it turned out that hope was slimmer than we thought. Trying to fulfill the law end up looking more like choosing the location of death; and the choice was dying here or there, either way we’ll have to die.
Hope became less impossible
All in the mean time God was up to something. He was mixing and creating a better hope, the joy of salvation. After the law, hope came in the form of a promise, which was good at the time. But as time went on, flaw could be seen because the promise involved children of men. Not to mention it looked one sided. God was offering something to mankind, but mankind has nothing in return. Is this how covenant is establish?
Though it could have been better, at least the promise was much more reliable. Its strength no longer relied on men. This is good because men strength can take you so far. So then our hope rested on a promise…promise of God’s word and not strength of men. The problem with this lay on trusting the word of God. How could you trust God, a being you could not see? And all He had as a testimony is His word.
Salvation became a guarantee
Then Jesus came to the scene…and hope became tangible. Hope went from resting on men’s strength to a promise, and from a promise to Jesus, the living hope. It went from a law to a promise, and ultimately to a promise with a form. Though His words are true, he gave me more tangible proof to His words. He placed the Holy Spirit inside me, the down payment and a proof of what has been done. And when the Spirit testifies, to label what my soul feels as security is under statement.
