These comments really encouraged me and I hope did the same for others. I pray we will bring Him glory in all that we say and do. :-)Mary Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04107504165449607702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8781753636089506134.post-28566692683951020072009-08-11T12:30:17.956-04:002009-08-11T12:30:17.956-04:00We are called to live our faith; in every thing we...We are called to live our faith; in every thing we do, think and say. Fighting evil can be as simple as saying, "Blessed be the name of God" every time you hear the Lord's name taken in vain. It can be telling your friends who are shacking up that you believe that marriage is a better option. It can be teaching your children the Catechism, and giving them a solid base of faith to fall back on when they get older and have to make their own decisions. <br />If you live your faith you aren't being apathetic. But to go outside our own comfort zone, and stand up publicly and make our voices heard can be done in many ways; we must all discern what God is calling us to do; and remember that He always calls us to prayer.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15454110560303310751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8781753636089506134.post-80266199501874801152009-08-10T21:55:55.764-04:002009-08-10T21:55:55.764-04:00Pray and work.

We are to work against injustice - you just have to discern how God is calling you to do that.<br /><br />I used to think that Catholics in America would suffer only white martyrdom. I now believe that red martyrdom is becoming more plausible with every passing day. It may not happen for decades, but I'm sure it will happen.Larry Denningerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06015803653090711740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8781753636089506134.post-3271781987433589322009-08-10T16:09:40.004-04:002009-08-10T16:09:40.004-04:00Nice blog...will put up a link..Nice blog...will put up a link..Jackie Parkes MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16693505024823229152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8781753636089506134.post-82458234323622407042009-08-10T11:23:03.014-04:002009-08-10T11:23:03.014-04:00I definitely agree with Mrs. B. about prayer befor...I definitely agree with Mrs. B. about prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, but I also think it is up to all of us to also be aware of what is happening and then discern, as you seem to have done, as to what God is calling you specifically to do. Not all of us are called to be the activists in everything- some of us- myself included are better prayer warriors. That is definitely not apathy.<br />I admit this is a tough issue because our very lives may be at stake if things progress in the manner they seem to be progressing.<br />Sorry for going on so long on this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15124468084334204166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8781753636089506134.post-59327790071714525502009-08-10T10:57:59.916-04:002009-08-10T10:57:59.916-04:00Prayer before The Blessed Sacrament is the best we...Prayer before The Blessed Sacrament is the best weapon against the evils of our times.<br /><br />God Bless.Mr. Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10941821721851945726noreply@blogger.com
