American Idol Contestant Kimberly Henderson Tells Touching Story of Abortion and How God Changed Her Mind at the Last Minute [+video]

kimberly-hendersonAmerican Idol contestant Kimberly Henderson hasn’t let three rejections from the show’s auditions break her spirit, but a recent story she shared on her Facebook page has gained her more respect from Christians than a win on the show ever could.

“Two years ago today I was sitting in an abortion clinic thinking not having Vaida was best for me,” Henderson wrote about her now-two-year-old daughter. “Well this date is forever burned in my brain. … I think that is God’s way of showing me that HIS plan is and will always be greater and bigger than anything and everything I’ve ever known”. . .

In the post, Kimberly shares another message she originally wrote on the day that she decided not to have the abortion. She describes being upset at her boyfriend at the time for cheating on her, and she made up her mind that she wouldn’t have his child.

But a string of events happened on her way to the abortion clinic that worked toward convincing Kimberly that God was trying to speak to her. Her other daughter was sick so she had to find a sitter last-minute, she got lost, and then her car broke down for 15 minutes, making her late for her appointment. But ultimately, it was a card that fell out of her purse as she searched for her driver’s license that changed her mind once and for all.

The card was given to her by a Christian couple and on the back was a powerful Bible verse: “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.” – Isaiah 41:10.
