Time to Pray and Get to Work

It looks as if some in the majority of voters who chose to grant immunity and a windfall to the embryonic stem cell researchers have yet to learn the truth. As will become obvious in the coming weeks and months, there should be a shift back towards an actual cloning ban rather than an "implantation" ban.

While it would be easy to lament the apparent defeats we have witnessed and suffered, much more is now required of us. Many eyes which have been closed will be opened and more light will shine on the truth, which for a great number, has been hidden.

This is not the time to quit praying, it is a time to pray even more fervently, and ask that this period of chastisement and punishment be of short duration. We must continue to work for the protection of those who are least able to defend themselves.

Our work lies ahead of us. Our Lord wishes us to be His instruments in bringing others to Him...Faith, Hope and Charity are the virtues by which we are to be reinvigorated. The evil one has placed obstacles before us. Our Lord beckons us to follow Him. Our Lady will guide us to her Son, through the traps sets before us.

So, rather than feeling down and despondent, we should rejoice that we have lived to see another day knowing that from these trials and tribulations, good will triumph and we will receive all the grace necessary to persevere.
