She realized she couldn't do it anymore:
"I just thought I can't do this anymore, and it was just like a flash that hit me and I thought that's it," said Jonhson.This must have been a huge blessing to all those who have been praying outside the abortion clinic. They saw the hand of God in this woman's actions.She handed in her resignation October 6. Johnson worked as the Bryan Planned Parenthood Director for two years.
According to Johnson, the non-profit was struggling under the weight of a tough economy, and changing it's business model from one that pushed prevention, to one that focused on abortion.
"It seemed like maybe that's not what a lot of people were believing any more because that's not where the money was. The money wasn't in family planning, the money wasn't in prevention, the money was in abortion and so I had a problem with that," said Johnson.

changing it's [sic] business model
I agree with Chall8987 that the article gives more than one reason for Johnson's departure. If the mission of Planned Parenthood has changed due to economic challenges, well, Johnson is free to rethink her participation in that.
It's a job, not indenture.
So many in this current culture have become so callused toward the respect for life. It is refreshing to see someone that followed their conscience, concerning abortion and the miracle of life. People will cheer for someone to jump from a bridge. Cowards will drive by in a vehicle and shoot someone for wearing the wrong color, or some other insane reason. People will walk by, as someone is being brutally beaten in the streets, and might even video tape it to show it on the internet for people's sick thrill. A person will kill their entire family and themselves, because of a broken relationship, or a bad economic situation. Life is becoming more dishonored and less precious in a society that is moving at light speed as far as technological progress, but descending rapidly from moral absolutes.
Well, I would say there is a turning point in everyones life and this one is for her. God bless her!
I agree to the above comment. There is a time in life when everyone undergoes serious changes.

I changed my view on abortion when I saw the movie The Silent Scream.
And yes, almost all abortion advocates DO NOT see what is inside the woman. They (we), convince themselves to believe the lie that it is just a mass of cells and go on with our lives.
