Have you seen or heard of the awesome Pro-Life film - October Baby? I saw it three times in theaters and now own it on DVD and still am not tired of it. It's one you definitely want in your collection. It shows the value of human LIFE, shows the healing one can have after an abortion, and stirs people to action. I love this movie so much that I'm going to give a copy of it away to one of you lovely people. All you have to do to enter this contest is "like" my page and then comment here saying you did so. I will randomly choose a winner (from the facebook and blog entries) once I reach 300 facebook "likes!" Also, please share my page and help me spread the message of LIFE!

In honor of Lily Katherine's 2nd Heavenly birthday, I am hosting a blog giveaway. The prize is a copy of the Pro-Life movie, Sarah's Choice. This movie has been such a blessing to me and I am sure it will bless you too. Whether you win or not, it is a movie worth purchasing. It came out in November 2009, when I was around five months pregnant. I literally got it the day it came out. It's a movie that echoes much of what I was experiencing in my own life at that very time. One of the first posts I wrote on this blog was about this movie. You can read that by clicking here.
One of my all-time favorite songs is from this movie. It is called Little One by Rebecca St. James. My roommate at Ellerslie, Bonnie, and I would listen to it on repeat. Faith liked it too and had it memorized in no time :) I actually hadn't heard it in a long time because it wasn't available for purchase on iTunes until recently. Bonnie played it and right away the tears came. It reminded me of the time I carried her and all the dreams I had for her life. It reminded me that she will never grow up. It made me wonder if she might be a voice for unborn life had she lived. The Lord has gently reminded me that she is a voice for the voiceless, even without speaking a word or taking a breath. What a legacy. I first heard it at the end of the movie and my heart was gripped by the words. I would just weep and weep. The one particular line that got me the most was: I can't believe that I could ever think that you were not to be. I had an appointment at Planned Parenthood set up to abort Lily. Then God radically transformed my life and placed a love within me for my tiny babe that I never dreamed possible...
Here is a trailer:

I have always liked the idea of hosting a blog giveaway and have just never gotten around to doing it. So, I actually have a couple giveaways lined up that I'm pretty excited about. This first giveaway is in honor of Lily's birthday...a little late, I know. But, I thought doing it on the 16th of this month was appropriate for her. :)
The prize is....the book Choosing to SEE, by Mary Beth Chapman. Reading this book blessed me so much and I found it very encouraging in working through my loss. My aunt gave me Steven Curtis Chapman's Beauty Will Rise cd last year and it is filled with songs that show both the sorrow, the hope, and the joy that come in losing a child, when we choose to SEE. I hope to give that cd away sometime soon because it has meant so much to me.
"Covering her courtship and marriage to Steven Curtis Chapman, struggles for emotional balance, and living with grief, Mary Beth's story is our story--wondering where God is when the worst happens. InChoosing to SEE, she shows how she wrestles with God even as she has allowed him to write her story--both during times of happiness and those of tragedy. Readers will hear firsthand about the loss of her daughter, the struggle to heal, and the unexpected path God has placed her on. Even as difficult as life can be, Mary Beth ChapmanChooses to SEE."
Because the book is about the loss of a child, this giveaway is for anyone who has lost a baby and you must live in the United States.
How to enter:
1. Follow this blog. 2. Post about the giveaway on your blog. 3. Leave a comment sharing the book that has helped you the most on this grief journey.
This giveaway will remain open until next Saturday, April 23. I will announce the randomly picked winner the following day. If you already own this book, please do not enter the giveaway. Thanks. :)
