JUST BETWEEN YOU & ME
FALL 2017
VOLUME 39, NUMBER 3
“Whosoever shall
not receive the
kingdom of God
as a child, shall
not enter into it.”
—Luke 18:17
CHRIST SPOKE THESE words to
His disciples, reminding them
that the world does not look at
Him Who is Truth through the
eyes of a child but rather in a
jaded way that is influenced by
hatred of His saving power.
He was referring to the
Pharisees of His day who publicly
claimed to obey the laws of their
tradition but in their hearts harbored
attitudes of disdain toward
all that Christ taught among
them. This was so then, and it is
so now in our own time.
And this is one reason why we
are called to love our enemies
and pray for them. It is why we
are servants of a loving Father
Who expects us to imitate Christ
and never count the cost.
As we defend the vulnerable from the many tools of death
among the enemies of life, we trust in God’s providence, for we know
that alone we can do nothing, but in Him all things are possible.
So, when we read, for example, of the horrific propaganda that is
being taught to our children in the school systems of America, we do
not curse the darkness. We shed light on the truths of properly educating
our children through our ALL Culture of Life Studies Program.
When we hear members of the media praise the deadly ways of
Planned Parenthood and decry those among us who strive to end
their taxpayer funding, we do not scream as they do. Rather, we
employ the tools of our ALL Stop Planned Parenthood arsenal and
spread the truth as far and wide as we can, with your help.
Why? Because we have heeded the profound simplicity of
Christ’s words. We know that if we do not receive His truth and
spread it with childlike love for our fellow human beings, we will fail.
We are His feet and His Hands; in Him is the glory and the healing
of this ailing land. Praise Him always.
