“Our faith needs to be the North Star of our lives. Our behavior needs to match our words.” –Archbishop Charles Chaput

So let’s work to change it!

I just did…
go to Feminists for Life and become a member. And check out their store. I love the “pro-woman, pro-life” bumper sticker. That might have to be coming to my house.

“We can do no great things, only small things with great love.” –Mother Teresa

My patron saint, St. Therese of Lisieux, said essentially the same thing in her “Little Way.” It’s by touching one life at a time, living a life of witness and devotion to Jesus and His Church, that we can make a difference. And of course, the Rosary is a very powerful prayer, one that I don’t think we use often enough. I’m as guilty of this as anyone else, although I have made a concerted effort to say a full set of mysteries daily. Some days I’m successful, other days, not. But I believe that no matter how “imperfectly” we may say it, Mary won’t reject any prayers said in a devout spirit. She’s our mom! How many mothers would take a child’s fingerpainting that was done especially for her and criticize it? Not many! Instead it would go on the refrigerator in a place of pride. Let’s pray to Mary that she exert her motherly influence on women who are considering abortion, to let them know there are so many of us out there who are willing to support, but spiritually and corporally, through this difficult time in their lives.
