"Life is always a good. ...Why is life a good?... The life which God gives man is ...a manifestation of God in the world, a sign of his presence, a trace of his glory" (John Paul II, The Gospel of Life, n.34).
Reflection: Abortion advocates say that the embryo or fetus is "just a collection of cells." But this is no argument at all. The same can be said of you and me. If someone does not see the dignity of the human person, their view of people is just reduced to cells.
Prayer: Fill us with wonder, Lord, at your glory shining through every human life. Amen.
