11 Apr Change us (Jn 8:31) by Ed Heigl
Jesus said to those Jews who believed in Him, ‘If you remain in My word, you will truly be My disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.’ ~ Jn 8:31

Reflection: I lost my one and only older sister to abortion. My mother had no choice, and the pain of this loss remained with her the entire 96 years of her life. I had uncles and cousins who went into the Nazi concentration camps as prisoners because they stood up for life. I know how a society treats “non-persons” and how a Christian Germany and much of Europe turned their back on the reality that was occurring with the Nazis. In the same way, much of our media, many of our leaders, and many of the people accept the toxic scourge of abortion in our nation which has become a holocaust larger then what happened in Nazi Germany. To this very day in many places around the world nothing has changed with regard to the lack of respect for the human person. In North Korea, China and in many other nations, including the U.S., abuses on people and personhood continue. The time is now and it is up to us to change U.S., beginning with our own families, churches and neighborhoods. By letting God work through us, we can protect the least of these and set the captives free.

Challenge: Stand up, speak up, and run or walk… for life! Wear your “REMEMBER The Unborn – Jer 1:5” jersey as a public witness, raising awareness of the truth of abortion and letting this truth set our world free.
.
Pray LIFE Runners Creed to end abortion. Add Prayers.

Inspiration: “Blessed are you, O Lord, the God of our fathers, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever.” ~ Dn 3:52
