Sunday Snippets--A Catholic Carnival is a weekly meme hosted by RAnn at This That and The Other Thing where bloggers can share their favorite posts with others. If you would like to read these posts or join in ,please visit RAnn's blog. It's also a great way for new bloggers to get their blogs launched into the blogosphere. During this week devoted to ending abortion in our world I have decided to share these posts:

I know some of these posts sound harsh, but please understand how wounded America has been through the sin of abortion. The Land of the Free has failed in their duty to protect the most innocent of all, the unborn, who are unable to protect themselves. Apathy has invaded the hearts of many in our country.

Father of all, in your immense mercy, I ask you to free the hearts of all your children caught in the grip of apathy. May the voices you have given us rise true and strong in the defense of the unborn and the oppressed. Forgive us, O Author of Life, for allowing the sin of abortion to scar our country and world. Heal us, O Lord, and free us in the name of Jesus, who died  for us that we might live. I offer you the wounded Heart of Your Beloved Son in reparation for our sins. Pour the fire of Your Holy Spirit into our hearts, that our nation may be lifted out of it's apathetic stance toward abortion and once again be proud defenders of life, with LIBERTY and JUSTICE for ALL. Amen
