Rincón de Raquel Sanar las Heridas del Aborto Provocado “Me he despojado(a) de la carga que me abrumaba y mi corazón ahora se siente renovado y lleno de vida. Mi promesa a Dios es de no volver a caminar nuevamente por ese camino de autodestrucción.” -Tes'monio ¿La decisión de abortar le hizo sen'rse entumecido (a) emocional e interiormente destruido (a) que se preguntaba cómo es que todo eso le había afectado tanto?
