I elected to peruse the website of a local television station with the intention of ascertaining the day’s news. One of the most prominent stories on the website announced the area’s newest additions: the first babies to be born in the new year.
The images of the young children were indeed a source of great joy and conveyed the hope inherent in the beginning of January. It is a time of promise and possibility, when everything is new. The arrival of these infants is a source of immense joy not only for their families but also for the wider community.
It is the responsibility of the pro-life movement to demonstrate that there exists a superior alternative to abortion, one that respects the humanity of the unborn child and the unique gift of motherhood. It is incumbent upon us to demonstrate compassion towards pregnant women who are facing challenging circumstances and to offer them loving support. It is imperative that we demonstrate to them the love that may otherwise be absent from their lives.
As the first week of January progresses, I take joy in the new lives that have been born into the human family. Concurrently, I am saddened by the fact that some individuals were denied their right to life in the frigid atmosphere of an abortion clinic.
By working together, we can make 2024 the Year of the Unborn Child. In that child lies our greatest hope. It is impossible to predict the number of future artists, scientists, athletes, and doctors who will be born this year. The potential outcomes are as numerous as the aspirations of humankind.
Daniel Miller is responsible for nearly all of National Right to Life News' political writing.
With the election of Donald Trump to the U.S. presidency, Daniel Miller developed a deep obsession with U.S. politics that has never let go of the political scientist. Whether it's the election of Joe Biden, the midterm elections in Congress, the abortion rights debate in the Supreme Court or the mudslinging in the primaries - Daniel Miller is happy to stay up late for you.
Daniel was born and raised in New York. After living in China, working for a news agency and another stint at a major news network, he now lives in Arizona with his two daughters.
