Hi, noria,
Why don't you want to be forgiven? I am sure you know the price you would pay if you aren't.
God WANTS to forgive you. He has ALREADY paid the price for your sin. All you have to do is experience genuine sorrow for what you did, and repent, and ask for His forgiveness. He gives it freely. You don't have to DO anything, because Jesus did it all. He said, "It is finished." What was finished? Your salvation! Once you have received God's forgiveness, then you will need to forgive yourself. It sounds like you don't want to. But you need to take God's word for it that your sin is paid for, and that you are forgiven. If you don't forgive yourself, you are telling God that He is a liar, and you don't accept what He plainly told you about forgiveness. Salvation and forgiveness are by grace, which is unmerited favor from God, and it's not a matter of works, lest any man should boast. It isn't something you can earn. That's the whole point! Don't be a second victim of your abortion, but ACCEPT Jesus' forgiveness with gratitude.
There are programs for women in your position. Go to your nearest crisis pregnancy agency. Almost all of them have programs to help a woman heal emotionally and spiritually. Let us know if you need any help finding one, but you can go here: www.pregnancycenters.org and find one in your area.
May God pour out His blessing on you and assurance of His salvation.
Hugs,
Pat
