Dylan Harper is a rookie in name only.
At 20 years, 100 days old, he became the youngest player in NBA Finals history to score 20+ points in a game, passing Tyler Herro, Magic Johnson, and Tony Parker.
The stage isn't too big for him. Let him run the offense.
There's a reason muscles only grow under resistance, why diamonds only form under pressure, why the deepest faith almost always emerges from the hardest seasons. Hardship isn't a detour from God's plan — sometimes it's the very classroom He uses to shape us.
That doesn't make it easy. It doesn't make the heartache lighter or the waiting shorter. But it does mean nothing is wasted. Every difficult step you've taken, every prayer prayed through tears, every morning you got up when staying down felt easier — God sees it. And He's building something in you that will honor Him for years to come.
I read that the baby aborted for having Down syndrome by the YouTuber and his wife yesterday was done so when she was half way through her pregnancy, so I am going to describe in graphic detail what aborting a second trimester baby looks like. Read on at your own discretion.
At 21 weeks the baby is a fully formed miniature human being roughly 10 to 11 inches long from crown to rump weighing about three quarters to one pound. His skin is thin and translucent but covered in fine lanugo hair. He has distinct fingerprints eyelids that can open and close and functioning senses. He can hear your voice and external sounds taste the amniotic fluid and respond to touch. His heart beats strongly. You could feel it if you pressed a hand to the mothers belly. Lungs are developing with practice breaths and he kicks stretches turns and sucks his thumb in the womb. Viability outside the womb is possible with intensive neonatal care in modern hospitals. Many 21 week preemies survive with medical intervention.
A typical 21 week abortion is performed via dilation and evacuation. The process begins by forcibly dilating the mothers cervix over hours or days using laminaria or medications which causes cramping and pain as the body is prepared to expel the child. Then under ultrasound guidance in many cases the abortionist inserts forceps through the birth canal into the uterus.
The baby often still alive and moving is grasped limb by limb. The abortionist twists and pulls tearing off arms and legs one at a time while the child recoils and struggles inside the womb. The smaller bones snap like twigs the joints dislocate with audible pops under the instruments. Blood and amniotic fluid mix as the torso is wrenched apart. The spine is crushed or snapped. Finally the skull is gripped collapsed with the forceps sometimes after being pierced and the brain suctioned out to make removal easier and the remains are extracted piece by piece. The abortionist then reassembles the body parts on a tray to ensure nothing hands feet torso fragments is left inside to cause infection. The mother’s uterus is scraped clean with a curette.
This is not a procedure on tissue. It is the deliberate piecemeal dismemberment of a baby who can feel pain. Fetal pain receptors and neural pathways are active by this stage who reacts defensively to the invasion and whose only crime is existing. The mother carrying this child in her body for nearly five months feeling his movements, knowing his sex, and seeing his ultrasounds chooses to have him torn apart inside her. And in this disgusting case of psychopathic narcissism “for his own good”. She schedules the appointment consents to the crushing and extraction, rests peacefully while her baby is tortured to death because he wasn’t perfect enough for her, and she walks away while the baby’s tiny mutilated body is discarded in a “medical waste” sink to be sent for incineration.
Many women later describe the visceral aftermath. The sudden cessation of kicks the hormonal crash the haunting knowledge that they authorized the destruction of their own baby’s body. It is an act of profound betrayal by the very person biologically wired to protect that life. If the image of a tiny writhing child being methodically ripped apart limb from limb by cold metal tools then sucked or scraped from its mother’s womb does not disgust you regarding the “woman’s choice”, then the propaganda worked on your weak, pathetic soul.
No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. – Romans 8:39 NLT #verseoftheday

A girl who was raped by two teenage boys has told the BBC that a judge's decision to spare them jail sentences was like a "rock straight in my face".
The attorney general is to review the sentence given by Judge Nicholas Rowland, who had said on Thursday he wanted to avoid "criminalising" the "very young" boys.
