I don’t typically like to get political with my content, because Lord knows we are ALL politically exhausted. Still, given the second anniversary of Dobbs vs Jackson, I thought it might be good to share what life looks like now and how we can continue the fight to end abortion in our country. Two years ago, on June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that the United States Constitution does not confer a right to abortion, hence overturning both Roe V Wade and Planned Parenthood V Casey. What this means, is that abortion is now regulated by the states instead of federally. States are now able to make their own laws on abortion.
I’m sure you probably didn’t need that quick lesson, but some people still get confused – “If we don’t have Roe, why do we still have abortion?” While the Dobbs decision did overturn Roe and Casey, it did not end abortion completely, or make it illegal.
Looking back, as a woman who has experienced the true cost of abortion, I celebrated that day. This was a huge accomplishment for life. However, the Supreme Court’s decision did bring a lot of emotions, as there were so many people fighting on social media, as well as people spreading misinformation about treatment for miscarriage and ectopic pregnancies. It was a tough time emotionally, but it was a thing to celebrate, a step in the right direction.
While that remains true, I think it’s important to talk about what life is really like post-roe. In my mind, overturning Roe was going to solve a ton of problems and save a ton of lives. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case.
I want to share some facts with you that show the reality of the war we continue to face against abortion.
What we can conclude from these two facts alone is this: the fight against abortion is far from over, and even with abortion bans there is not a single state in this nation that is truly abortion free.
Overturning Roe V. Wade was a step in the right direction, but the fight is far from over. What this tells me is that educating the public NEEDS to be a priority. We need to educate the public on embryology, development, on the true cost of abortion for the baby and also for the mother.
We all need to be doing something to end abortion for good.
Healing from abortion is the backdoor approach to ending abortion because when we heal from this pain and share it with others, we are spreading the truth about abortion.
If you would like to start your healing journey alongside someone who has been there too, I invite you to book a 1:1 Abortion Recovery Breakthrough Call with me. In this call, we will learn how to partner with God, uncover the areas of your life where you need healing, and break free from those chains of abortion once and for all. If you’re ready to get started, you can book a session with me at brittanypoppe.com/coaching. I can’t wait to see what God does in your life!
Dear Heavenly Father, I pray for the woman reading this today. I pray that you will comfort her and guide her in this hostile world. We thank you for allowing Roe V. Wade to be overturned, but we know that the work is not over. I want to ask you to lead and guide our lawmakers to understand the true cost of abortion so that we can end abortion once and for all. I pray that you will comfort these women and lead them to peace despite the headlines. Thank you for your goodness and mercy. In Jesus name, Amen.
I would love to invite you to join our free Facebook community of women who have all walked the journey of abortion and are seeking healing and wholeness. You can join us at bit.ly/DGFAGroup.
Praying for peace and protection for all of you!
XO, Brittany
