Christ had compassion on the hungry and performed a miracle of love for them. Mindful of this, let us pray:
Show us your love, Lord.
Lord, we recognize that all the favors we have received today come through your generosity,
— do not let them return to you empty, but let them bear fruit.
Show us your love, Lord.
Light and salvation of all nations, protect the missionaries you have sent into the world,
— enkindle in them the fire of your Spirit.
Show us your love, Lord.
Grant that man may shape the world in keeping with human dignity,
— and respond generously to the needs of our time.
Show us your love, Lord.
Healer of body and spirit, comfort the sick and be present to the dying,
— in your mercy visit and refresh us.
Show us your love, Lord.
May the faithful departed be numbered among the saints,
— whose names are in the Book of Life.
Show us your love, Lord.

Reflection: My Take on Being Pro-Life as a Filipino Catholic
This is a day of prayer for the unborn and of penance for the sins committed through acts of abortion. Here is a 2019 Post I wrote about the fight against abortion. My Reflection narrates how I became Pro-Life, and why I care about the Pro-Life updates and issues in the United States, even I’m a Filipino. You, too, must care. Whether you’re from the US or whichever part of the world, I encourage you to take a look back at this article to better understand what being ‘Pro-Life Catholic’ truly means.
This first Post to start off the 20’s offers an absorbing My Reflection. I’m sharing with you my heartfelt personal advice on how to let go of the past… the way I did. Many “practicing” Catholics are still carrying the heavy baggages of the past—hurts, wounds, bad choices, wrong decisions, mistakes, regrets. Here is a Catholic perspective on why letting go of the past will enable you to move on, with God, to have a present and a future. I guarantee that there is so much to reflect on and learn in my piece. Happy New Year 2020!
