Two Abortions. Two Decades of Silence. One Savior Who Heals.

Hi, my name is TJ, and more than 20 years ago, I made the painful decision to have two abortions. On the outside, life seemed normal, but inside I was weighed down by shame, guilt, and post abortion regret. That hidden pain gnawed at my identity, value, and self-worth.

What I didn’t know at the time was that I was struggling with undiagnosed PTSD, anxiety, and depression from those abortions. I carried the heavy burden of this secret alone as it tormented me for decades with no sense of hope or relief in sight.

But twelve years ago, Jesus stepped in. He began gently uncovering and tending to the wounds I had spent years trying to avoid and hide. One by one, He brought them into the light of truth—not to shame me, but to heal me.

Eventually, He led me to SFHG, where I encountered a deeper measure of healing and more freedom than I could have ever imagined. God used the truth of His Word to untangle the lies that had me bound for years. Chapter by chapter, He began rewriting my story by silencing lies, breaking chains, and redeeming what I thought was lost forever.

One of the most sacred parts of this journey was naming the children I had aborted with God. Then weeks later, at their memorial service, I was finally able to honor and celebrate their lives with the dignity and respect they deserved.

SFHG will always hold a special place in my heart, and today, I can say with complete confidence that I am forgiven and set free.

Scripture:

John‬ ‭8‬:‭32‬ ‭

“You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free!”
