Today I read a small article, which stated that pro-lifers are the "minority" in the abortion debate. I felt disheartened as I certainly don't feel as a minority in this situation, but God is certainly on our side. He gave us life - Life in His divine image. The Word of God, the Bible, testify to the truth of the sanctity of each human life from conception to natural death. The Church, which has been protected by Christ, has taught this from the beginning!
The truth is that we will all fail in our lives. For sin is always around us, but "Be not afraid"! It is through God's grace that we have Confession and the Sacraments. I recommend weekly Confession and daily Communion, though, once a week for either is all some can possibly do. But, don't let the other 6 days be days of sin. No, let the light shine through! This is the Light of Christ in our lives.
Once such instance happened recently when a student at a high school was told he could not wear a pro-life T-shirt. I just read that a Federal court has overruled that; a victory is spreading the pro-life message! We are certainly not in the darkness here for we follow the Church - Jesus Christ's institution on earth. We believe in life, a life for each human person. How can one ever justify a death? Let us not every justify abortion because by doing that we become pro-death.
