biden and the pope

biden says that personally he's against abortion, but he doesn't believe that he has the right to ban abortion. the pope says that biden is "a good catholic". some catholics, including clergy and higher-ups, believe otherwise.

biden has it right--so does the pope. those who think otherwise are wrong. 

you know the story. God created man. God gave man free will. It's our choice to choose good or evil. Each of us makes good choices and bad choices. How we choose is between each of us and God alone. No person should interfere with our sacred God-given right to choose. 

furthermore, think about it. have laws banning murder, including God's laws (e.g. the ten commandments), stopped murders? all of the condemnations by lawmakers, activists, do-gooders, clergy and even God's laws haven't stopped murders. evil will exist for as long as God wills for it to exist. 

God have mercy on us. Thank you for sending Your Son to save us. Amen.

“He who has ears to hear, let him hear” (Luke 8:8).

can we hear the presider when people talk out loud during a church service? at other times when people are silently praying, can they hear God speaking to them when others are talking out loud? 

1 Kings 19:12 says that God whispered to Elijah. Neither Elijah nor anyone else can hear God in the din that occurs in many church sanctuaries today. 

what has happened to our churches? where has reverence for God gone? respect for others? 

why has this desecration been allowed to continue?  

“O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore Thee profoundly. I offer Thee the most precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifferences by which He is offended. By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary I beg the conversion of poor sinners.”

Lily's 11:15 prayer

Blessed are you, Father of Life, source of goodness and peace, in whom all creation has its origin and by whom every person is loved.

In Father Bill Atkinson your mercy and compassion were made manifest as he brought solace to the suffering and hope to the needy.

By carrying the cross of life faithfully he proclaimed confidence in your love and conformity to your will, and so drew others to you and to the generous gift of your grace.

Hear our prayers which we offer through his intercession so that as your work continues to unfold among us it may bring honor to you, comfort to your people, and, according to your will, glory to your servant. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
