Pregnant at 19..christian advice?
I am 19, unmarried, and pregnant. I grew up in a christian household, but I guess I have never been a strong christian. I do believe that God exists, but I don't live by christian standards as I should and want to. Lately I've been thinking what God would want me to do since I am unmarried. Obviously having sex before marriage is a sin. I understand nobody can make this decision for me, but i'm just curious on other people's opinions on this topic. I am 30 weeks and haven't thought about adoption this whole pregnancy until recently. My cousin and his wife can't have children and talked to my mom about possibly taking my child to raise. I was angry that someone would even suggest this considering I have only talked to this family once in my life and I never told anyone I was considering adoption...since I wasn't. I don't want them to take my baby girl I love her so much and she isn't even born yet. I want to do whatever I can to raise her, but what if God wants a married couple who are more financially stable and just ready in general to have a child? I am willing to work and work and work for my baby, but I feel so guilty for saying no to them. Should a child who was conceived from a sin go to a christian, married family? Once again, I know nobody can make this decision for me and it's between me and God, but I was just wondering what other people's opinions or viewpoints were from a Christian standpoint. Thank you.
