8 For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, for it is the gift of God; 9 Not of works, that no man may glory. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus in good works, which God hath prepared that we should walk in them.
What a moving witness they are to the worthiness and value of the unborn child, not just to the mother but to society itself.

The Black Eye Challenge.
The Eye Black Challenge: Whether you are an army of one, a large group, or something in between, our challenge is for you to don your own eye black and make a difference in someone else's life.
Help a neighbor,
baby sit for a single parent or young couple,
take a kid to a sporting event,
coach a team,
volunteer at your local soup kitchen,
donate to your favorite charity,
send a package to our armed services serving overseas,
lead a support group,
foster or adopt a child in need,
give someone a hug or needed word of encouragement,
or simply put your cart away at the grocery store.
Whatever it is, do something you enjoy!
Be creative.
Small things become large things when added one by one. And whether you realize it or not, someone is watching, and that makes us all leaders. Great and small.
Again, our challenge to you is to don your eye black (with your favorite verse, loved one's name, area code, or whatever is most important to you), and get out there and do something to make a positive difference in the lives of those around you.
Send us your stories and photos, and we'll post them as inspiration for others.
I was disappointed that Obama used his feet to object to Tebow at the National Prayer Breakfast. If he cannot join us in a compelling and uplifting message about how life can turn out in the "alternatives" to abortion, the sincerity of his calls for "civility" remains questionable.
Planned Parenthood's response is intriguing, isn't it.
The group released an online public service announcement with former NFL player Sean James and Olympic gold medalist Al Joyner directly addressing the Tebow spot slated to air during CBS's telecast of Super Bowl XLIV on Feb. 7.
I'll be interested to hear what these people, whose mothers gave birth to them, have to say.
Where do you go with it?
One thing we can be assured of, the number of women who regret their abortion won't be part of their "rebuttal".
We can all take a lesson from Tebow's black eye for Senior Bowl:
James 1:2-4 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
