Greetings!
My wife and I were talking in the kitchen just now. The issue of Roe v. Wade, etc. came up. We hear about it more this time of year because of the march on Washingtion, etc. It is true it (abortion) is the horrible end to a human life, a life not given a chance to be as created by God. Our discussion touched on why priests often will not or can not speak on the issue at mass, etc. Our bishop wants us to pray for them who have a hard time speaking to their parishes about it (the abortion issue). Well indeed, but we've had this problem for so long, this fear for so long, that we have to address truthfully the scourge that is abortion. Abortion needs to stop, we need to say so. And when we say so, or any other truth as our Lord Jesus taught us, we hopefully say it as humbly as He would. Just as important is that we listen humbly too.
God, we pray we know the difference betweeen fear and humility. YOU told us to fear not! Help us to humbly tell the truth and do Your will. Help us to protect the innocent. Warm our hearts and enlighten our minds. Amen.
