Will the Son of Man Find Faith on Earth?

J.M.J +
Dear Friends of the Unborn,
Thank you so much to all of you who have committed to an hour for this Saturday the 24th from 8am until 12 pm noon. If you have not already please do respond to take an hour in prayer.
God’s grace remains apparent at Planned Parenthood New Haven. Despite the evil which takes place in that building, the unthinkable horror God’s little ones endure; Our Blessed Mother remains faithful to hearing and interceding for us in response to our unceasing prayer. Despite the huge sign on the building and the immensity of its 35,000 square feet woman walking to go inside seem to find their way to one of us peacefully praying on the sidewalk. I am often touched by the very young and scared faces who ask me if I am a staff member at PP. I am also amazed by how during the 24 Hour Vigil two woman came looking for abortions after hours only to find us there on the sidewalk with the information the needed for a crisis pregnancy center. We have lifted these young ladies up in prayer and given them into the care of Our Most Holy Mother’s hands. We may never know how many women, babies, and families we will help to choose LIFE through our efforts standing vigil for the unborn; however we do know in faith that God is always faithful in hearing our desperate prayer.

Pope John Paul II described the assassination attempt by Mehmet Ali Agca as just missing his central aorta by a fraction of an inch. He stated, “One hand fired, and another hand guided the bullet.” He attributed the miracle to our Lady of Fatima as this attempt took place on the feast day of May the 13th. We standing out at PP feel also that one hand is firing the women to seek abortion through this facility and another Hand is faithfully guiding them into our path.

In Jesus’ parable of the persistent widow He urges us about the great importance for us to pray always without becoming weary.
Then he told them a parable about the necessity for them to pray always without becoming weary. He said “There was a judge in a certain town who neither feared God nor respected and human being. And a widow in that town used to come to him and say, ‘render a just decision for me against my adversary.’ For a long time the judge was unwilling, but eventually he thought, ‘While it is true that I neither fear God nor respect any human being, because this widow keeps bothering me I shall deliver a just decision for her lest she finally come and strike me.’ ” The Lord said, “Pay attention to what the dishonest judge says. Will not God then secure the rights of his chosen ones who call out to him day and night? Will he be slow to answer them? I tell you, he will see to it that justice is done for them speedily. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?” Luke 18:1-8

As we draw close to the end of another week and ever closer to Sunday, we are yet again reminded of the glorious triumph of our Lord over death and sin. Living in a society plagued by a culture of death, especially evident in the evil of abortion, we as God’s people have the privilege to witness to Jesus’ great act of love and sacrifice on the glorious cross by standing vigil and persistently praying for the unborn. Our prayer must not cease. It is a blessing and grace that we have come to understand that through Him who is Life can only come life. It is through following Him and the Gospel message that will bring us from a culture of death to a culture of life.
“…But when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?” Luke 18:8

God bless you,
