God made you for a reason, he also decided when you would be born and how long you would live. He planned the days of your life in advance, choosing the exact time of your birth and death. The Bible says, "You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe. Every day was recorded in your book!" [Psalm 139:16]
God plans abortions and rape pregnancy victims is also part of Gods plan- right?

I understand where you are coming from. If God planned our lives out, then isn't it safe to say that he planned the end of our lives as well- including if we had our lives ended by abortion? This is a tricky question and, despite the trouble where thinking it may lead, it is actually quite simple to understand.
Scripturally speaking, God does KNOW of our outcomes per Psalm 139. The version you are quoting from throws out the dangerous word "scheduled" as if God planned all of our actions. If He did so, he would undermine the entire purpose of free will. In the original texts, the word "scheduled" or "planned" never makes an appearance. God did not create our futures, He just KNOWS them. As in Jeremiah 1:5, we are told that God KNEW Jeremiah :"Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations." God knew of us and knew of our lives- He has known them before we even took our first breath, but this is inherently assuming that we do indeed get a chance to breathe.
It is not merely assumption that when abortion occurs, the will of another person has interfered with a life. If you look at it literally, God knows what we should be, not what we get to be. If someone cut our lives short by abortion, they have ended a life and ended what God had foreseen. Take a look at Exodus 21:22-23: "If men strive, and hurt a woman with child so that her fruit depart from her and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life." If the abortion were part of God's plan, would he require punishment for carrying out His plan? I think not!
Surely, there is reason to believe that God did not plan, nor will he tolerate, abortion.
God bless!

Because God knows the number of our days doesn't mean He ended them. He allowed them to be ended. There is a distinct difference. Yes, He did create me for a reason, you too. Are we fulfilling our purpose? Often times we choose to walk our own paths rather than the one God has chosen for us. This is called free will. It saddens Him when we do not choose His way. Neither murder nor rape are ever part of God's plan. Man chooses these things as does Satan. Never God.

You got me. There should be abortion clinics made mandatory and the Bible banned. Now what? Are we saved yet?
BTW Rapists cause rapes, not God.

Never mock God or his word, unless you want to endure the consequences. Murder is murder and abortion is murder. We have the free will to make our own choices and he wants us to make correct choices. He knows how our lives will turn out, but he gives us the option of making our own decisions that can affect what happens to us. Try reading the book of Job chapters 38-42.
