A Message From The Womb

All who see me mock me; they make mouths at me; they wag their heads; He trusts in the LORD; let him deliver him; let him rescue him, for he delights in him!

Yet you are he who took me from the womb; you made me trust you at my mother's breasts. On you was I cast from my birth, and from my mother's womb you have been my God. Be not far from me, for trouble is near, and there is none to help.
-Psalm 22:7-11

About 7 years ago, God chose Samuel Armas to deliver one of the most powerful messages the world has ever heard. Paradigms were, and continue to be shattered. Lives were, and continue to be changed. It is very rare that a message is used to move souls in such a way; to cause us to HOPE in such a manner that the foundations of hell are shaken; to create a movement.

Who is Samuel Armas? Is he a well-known political figure? No. Is he highly educated? Not so much as a high school diploma. Is he a gifted orator? His vocabulary is small and he can barely read and write. Is he a famous athlete? He struggles to make a layup.

I would be thinking the same thing, if I were you: "How is it possible that a man like Samuel Armas could deliver such a revolutionary message? Shouldn't he be in grade school learning how to speak and write?" Yes, he very well should be. Actually, he is doing just that. Samuel Armas is 7 years old.

Your next objection: "So how could he possibly deliver this message 7 years ago? He was not even born yet!" Exactly.

Sometimes, our actions speak louder than our words. Sometimes, our actions melt hearts. Sometimes, our actions educate others. Sometimes, our actions create hope. Our world is changed in the process.

"Samuel Armas made more of an impact on this world before he was born than most of us make in a lifetime" (Michael Clancy). Please read this article NOW in order to gain further understanding. It is to your great disadvantage if you do not.

It can be easy to lose hope in the midst of darkness. We are surrounded by evil. We are assaulted by nightmarish realities every time we watch, or read the news. War. Rape. Kidnappings. School shootings. Terrorism. The Holocaust. Nuclear weaponry. Aids. Genocide.

Abortion often gets swept under the rug. It is apparently not as serious. It is definitely not a crime. In fact, it is an individual right, isn't it? We are only talking about a fetus, right? "It" isn't alive. "It" cannot speak for itself, can it?

Or, can it?? Hear now the message of Samuel...

"Where there is life, there is hope." This is a fairly common assertion. Yet I am under the conviction that the heroic message of Samuel Armas is much more accurate:

"Where there is Hope, there is life."

Indeed. May we cling to our Hope this day, for He will surely prevail. And there will be no more tears. Please check out this powerful video clip. Note that neither the picture, nor this video clip are of abortions. They are premature births. The picture is real. The video clip was taken from the television series, House.
