40 Days for Life this week: Unfilled hours

"Never underestimate what God can do when we just do the basics.  We can show up in spite of the busyness of our lives.  We can take an hour or a few hours once or twice a week during a 40 Days for Life Campaign to go out and pray.  We could easily list a hundred other things we could be doing due to our many other important obligations or due to any of the other responsibilities that constrain us every single day.  But we choose to stand for life for a few precious hours.

That's not an act that requires heroics.  The hundreds of thousands who have taken the step to volunteer discover that it really takes only a small effort to do a huge thing - to stand and pray as a witness to someone whose whole world is crashing down on them to the extent that they feel abortion is their only option.

And though our part is small, we must never downplay God's huge part - that he uses our presence to demonstrate his love.  God can get inside these abortion facilities.  He can speak to the hearts and minds of those who have come for abortions, as well as of those who work there.  We can't know their backgrounds - but he does.  We don't know the situations surrounding their pregnancies - but he does!"
