A 2 1/2 minute video from Andrea Bocelli, internationally acclaimed tenor and blind since the age of 12, on a choice his mother faced.
I am glad to use this famous singer’s testimony about his mother to encourage more women “in those moments when life is complicated” to let their babies live.
Of course, things have turned out pretty well for Mr. Bocelli. Most of us won’t experience that, or even close to it. Doctors know that. Mothers-to-be know that.
So we should cling to something better – the righteousness of Jesus Christ:
May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent.
Colossians 1:11-18
Yes, disability is included in the ‘all things!’
The Works of God 
WOW Andrea Bocelli! Do the doctors not get it yet that extermination of any life is the destruction of the image bearers of God and that wether they can achieve the status of an Andrea Bocelli or not, image bearing happens in everyone. In the laugh of a little girl in the voice of an opera singer, in the smile of a person with cerebral palsy, in the hands of a blind autistic cavante playing any piece of music flawlessly, in the child with Down syndrome saying her name for the first time in her four year old life(personally my favorite)! Image bearing happens everywhere we look where there are people becasue God has made us in his image. Genesis 1:27 syas, “So God created human beings in His own image. In the image of God He created them; male and female he created them…Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was very good”. When we look only at the things that people CAN’T do we miss the glory of God in what they CAN do! God’s great blessings on you as you continue to be a voice for the voiceless, a mouth for the mute, eyes for the blind, and help for the hurting and oppressed.
