Pro-Life Reflections for Every Day

by Frank Pavone

Friends, please return to this page every day for a new reflection that will enrich your daily prayer life and give you new vigor to stand up for the unborn.

These reflections are taken from a book written by Frank Pavone.

April 21

"Let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth" (1 John 3:18).

Reflection: There is an axiom in psychiatry that says, "Believe behavior." See what the speaker does. We are not just supposed to talk about how we care. The "pro-choice" movement, for all its rhetoric, leaves women alone with the pain of abortion. The pro-life movement, through thousands of pregnancy resource centers, offers women real help in their need, and the gifts of life and peace.

Prayer: Holy Spirit, free us from a superficial commitment to goodness. Continue to turn our good words into good actions, that life may flourish. Amen.
