Save Us from Ourselves

It must be an incredibly numb world that a woman would film her abortion. It is all about her vantage point but nary a child's.

What if the child in the womb films his/her story as the abortion goes. The struggle for survival. The horror of being invaded and cut into pieces. The silent cry of "mommy!"

We all have the capacity to save others from other people's attack, from natural disasters, from accidents; But only God can save us from ourselves. Our concupiscence that masked itself in freedom but is actually leading us to self-destruction, a self that is not just a physical being but with a soul. Lord, save us.
