Do You Feel Left Behind?
Have you ever felt like the people around you–family, friends, coworkers–were all moving forward in their lives while you were lagging behind? Boy, I sure have.
Sometimes it can feel like God has left us behind. That we’re alone in our challenges or boring, mundane life. It can feel like He has no purpose for us, and that can quickly slide into rejection and sometimes de

“I discovered later, and I'm still discovering right up to this moment, that is it only by living completely in this world that one learns to have faith.

“Destruction of the embryo in the mother's womb is a violation of the right to live which God has bestowed upon this nascent life.
