“I saw that every flower He has created has a beauty of its own, that the splendor of the rose and the lily’s whiteness do not deprive the violet of its scent nor make less ravishing the daisy’s charm. I saw that if every little flower wished to be a rose, Nature would lose her spring adornments, and the fields would be no longer enameled with their varied flowers.” - Story of a Soul, autobiography of St. Therese of Lisieux

Rule 11: let one who is consoled seek to humble himself and lower himself as much as he can, thinking of how little he is capable in the time of desolation without such grace or consolation. On the contrary, let one who is in desolation think that he can do much with God's sufficient grace to resist all his enemies, taking strength in his Creator and Lord.

“The entire life of a good Christian is in fact an exercise of holy desire. You do not yet see what you long for, but the very act of desiring prepares you, so that when he comes you may see and be utterly satisfied. Suppose you are going to fill some holder or container, and you know you will be given a large amount. Then you set about stretching your sack or wineskin or whatever it is. Why? Because you know the quantity you will have to put in it and your eyes tell you there is not enough room. By stretching it, therefore, you increase the capacity of the sack. And this is how God deals with us. Simply by making us wait he increases our desire, which in turn enlarges the capacity of our soul, making it able to receive what is to be given to us. So, my brethren, let us continue to desire, for we shall be filled!” - Saint Augustine

“If we refuse this gift of hope, we stray into presumption or its opposite, despair. In the sin of presumption, we think we will be saved without any personal commitment to the moral life. In the sin of despair, we lose hope in God’s mercy and believe we cannot be saved.” - United States Catholic Catechism for Adults, p. 343 (from Chapter 25. First Commandment: Believe in the True God)
St. Josemaría Escrivá, pray for us!
“Don’t say: “That person bothers me.” Think: “That person sanctifies me.”” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“A Saint is a sinner that keeps trying.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“To reform. Every day a little. This has to be your constant task if you really want to become a saint.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Great holiness consists in carrying out the little duties of each moment.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Don't judge without having heard both sides. Even persons who think themselves virtuous very easily forget this elementary rule of prudence.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“If you have so many defects, why are you surprised to find defects in others?” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Compromise is a word found only in the vocabulary of those who have no will to fight.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Christian optimism is not a sugary optimism, nor is it a mere human confidence that everything will turn out all right. It is an optimism that sinks its roots into an awareness of our freedom, and the sure knowledge of the power of grace. It is an optimism that leads us to make demands on ourselves, to struggle to respond at every moment to God's call.” -St. Josemaría Escrivá
St. Charles Borromeo, pray for us!

A Prayer in Praise of Christ's Humanity (Taken from: https://www.catholic.org/prayers/prayer.php?p=2523):
O risen Lord, Your body was part of Your power, rather than You a part in its weakness. For this reason You could not but rise again, if You were to die, because Your body, once taken by You, never was or could be separated from You even in the grave. I keep Your most Holy Body before me as the pledge of my own resurrection. Though I die, as I certainly shall die, it only means that my life is changed, for I shall rise again. Teach me so to live as one who believes the great dignity and sanctity of the material frame in which I am lodged. Amen.

“The presence of the Devil is on the first page of the Bible, and the Bible ends as well with the presence of the Devil, with the victory of God over the Devil.” – Pope Francis
“He who does not believe in the devil does not believe in the Gospel.” – St. Pope John Paul II
“[In] a dream I had [as a child.] … I saw … two hideous little devils dancing with surprising agility … in spite of the heavy irons attached to their feet. At first they cast fiery glances at me; then, as though suddenly terrified, [they… threw] themselves down … only to run and hide themselves in the laundry… overcoming my fears, I went to the window. The wretched little creatures were there, running about, …not knowing how to hide themselves from my gaze. From time to time they came nearer, peering through the windows with an uneasy air, then, seeing that I was still there, they began to run about again looking quite desperate. Of course this dream was nothing extraordinary; yet I think Our Lord made use of it to show me that a soul in the state of grace has nothing to fear from the devil, who is a coward, and will even fly from the gaze of a little child.” - St. Therese of Lisieux

"If, by love and right living, you wash off the filth that has become stuck to your heart, the divine beauty will shine forth in you. Think of iron, which at one moment is dark and tarnished and the next, once the rust has been scraped off, shines and glistens brightly in the sun. It is the same with the inner core of man, which the Lord calls the heart. It has been in damp and foul places and is covered in patches of rust; but once the rust has been scraped off, it will recover itself and once more resemble its ‘original design’ . And whoever is pure in heart is blessed because, seeing his own purity, he sees the ‘original designer’ reflected in the image" -St. Gregory of Nyssa
“Filthy talk makes us feel comfortable with filthy action. But the one who knows how to control the tongue is prepared to resist the attacks of lust.” - St. Clement
“To defend his purity, St. Francis of Assisi rolled in the snow, St. Benedict threw himself into a thorn bush, St. Bernard plunged into an icy pond…You…what have you done" -St. Josemaria Escriva

"There is no sin or wrong that gives a man a foretaste of hell in this life as anger and impatience." -St. Catherine of Sienna
"If, when stung by slander or ill-nature, we wax proud and swell with anger, it is a proof that our gentleness and humility are unreal, and mere artificial show." - St. Francis de Sales
”Dismiss all anger, and look a little into yourself. Remember that he of whom you are speaking is your brother, and, as he is in the way of salvation, God can make him a Saint, notwithstanding his present weaknesses. You may fall into the same faults or perhaps into a worse fault. But supposing that you remain upright, to whom are you indebted for it, if not to the pure mercy of God?” - St. Thomas of Villanova

"Humility is the only thing that no devil can imitate." - St John Climacus
"God refuses only the person who does not admit his own weakness; He sends away only the unhappy proud person. You must "hold him" well and strongly, with a poor spirit, with a poor heart, with a life entirely poor..." -Saint Raphael Kalinowski

SHOW NOTES:
UNITED NATIONS DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS: The UN’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights [2] highlights this in Article 3: “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and the security of person.” And in Article 6 it says, “Everyone has the right to recognition everywhere as a person before the law.”
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE states, “…that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
The question of what is a human life? Comes into play then:
Many people will say “no one knows when human life begins” or “begins when there is a heart beat” or “begins when you can distinguish physically that it is human”, “life begins when the baby comes into the world”
-
Scientific journals and texts and SCIENCE has defined life beginning at Conception, we will talk about that more
-
A heart beat can be detected at 6 weeks
Week 6: The neural tube closes Embryo four weeks after conception Fetal development four weeks after conception Growth is rapid this week. Just four weeks after conception, the neural tube along your baby's back is closing. The baby's brain and spinal cord will develop from the neural tube. The heart and other organs also are starting to form. Structures necessary to the development of the eyes and ears develop. Small buds appear that will soon become arms. Your baby's body begins to take on a C-shaped curvature. 3. A baby begins to look human around 8-9 weeks
Week 9: Baby's toes appear In the ninth week of pregnancy your baby's arms grow and elbows appear. Toes are visible and eyelids form. Your baby's head is large but still has a poorly formed chin. By the end of this week, your baby might be a little less than 3/4 inch (16 to 18 millimeters) long from crown to rump — the diameter of a penny. A human life, is not defined by how it looks, if a burn victim came into an ER and was not recognizable as “human” they wouldn’t stop treating them because it wasn’t a human 4. Life is not determined by location. We call a single cell of bacteria found in space life. A human in a house is the same human when they walk out of a house or a hospital or a place that people think that they should be.
So how do we define human life and can it be defined of when it begins:
"Human development begins after the union of male and female gametes or germ cells during a process known as fertilization (conception)."
"Fertilization is a sequence of events that begins with the contact of a sperm (spermatozoon) with a secondary oocyte (ovum) and ends with the fusion of their pronuclei (the haploid nuclei of the sperm and ovum) and the mingling of their chromosomes to form a new cell. This fertilized ovum, known as a zygote, is a large diploid cell that is the beginning, or primordium, of a human being." [Moore, Keith L. Essentials of Human Embryology. Toronto: B.C. Decker Inc, 1988, p.2]
“The predominance of human biological research confirms that human life begins at conception—fertilization. At fertilization, the human being emerges as a whole, genetically distinct, individuated zygotic living human organism, a member of the species Homo sapiens, needing only the proper environment in order to grow and develop. The difference between the individual in its adult stage and in its zygotic stage is one of form, not nature. This statement focuses on the scientific evidence of when an individual human life begins.” -When Human Life Begins. American College of Pediatricians – March 2017
“An organism is defined as “(1) a complex structure of interdependent and subordinate elements whose relations and properties are largely determined by their function in the whole, and (2) an individual constituted to carry on the activities of life by means of organs separate in function but mutually dependent: a living being.” - Dr. Maureen L. Condic, a Berkeley-educated neurobiologist and professor at the University of Utah School of Medicine
“It is clear that from the time of cell fusion, the embryo consists of elements (from both maternal and paternal origin) which function interdependently in a coordinated manner to carry on the function of the development of the human organism. From this definition, the single-celled embryo is not just a cell, but an organism, a living being, a human being.”- American College of Pediatricians – March 2017
A baby is not an organ that is causing harm that needs to be removed due to the inconvenience that it is going to cause the women. It is an “organism” that was created and placed where it is supposed to grow and develop over the next 9 months.
Location and age of a human does not negate their human rights
Medical Abortion: Abortion Pill (RU-486)
The abortion pill is given at the abortion clinic and blocks the pregnancy hormones that maintain the embryo (embryo is the early stage of a baby). It can only be used in very early pregnancy. It is recommended by the drug manufacturers that the patient make 3 visits to the clinic after taking the drug. However, most abortion clinics combine visits and often, the woman has returned home when the cramping and bleeding begin with no medical supervision. Being alone (or at the least, without medical help), can put the woman in a frightening situation, leaving her with no one to ask if the amount of bleeding is normal or not. One in 100 women require surgery to stop the bleeding after taking the abortion pill. As many as 8 out of 100 times, RU-486 does not end the pregnancy, leading the woman to require an additional procedure to end it.
Surgical Abortion:
Aspiration is a surgical abortion procedure performed during the first 6 to 16 weeks gestation.
Dilation & Curettage (D&C): Dilation and curettage is a surgical abortion procedure performed after 16 weeks gestation. They insert something 24 hours prior to dilate. The they go in, give the baby a shot to ensure its death, then they scrape away, use forceps to take larger parts out and suction
Dilation and Extraction: The dilation and extraction procedure is used after 21 weeks gestation. The procedure is also known as D & X, Intact D & X, Intrauterine Cranial Decompression, and Partial Birth Abortion. Two days before the procedure, laminaria is inserted vaginally to dilate the cervix. Your water should break on the third day and you should return to the clinic. The fetus is rotated and forceps are used to grasp and pull the legs, shoulders, and arms through the birth canal. A small incision is made at the base of the skull to allow a suction catheter inside. The catheter removes the cerebral material until the skull collapses. The fetus is then completely removed. The availability of any procedure used in the third trimester is based on the laws of that state.
Physical effects: “In a series of 1,182 abortions which occurred under closely regulated hospital conditions, 27 percent of the patients acquired post-abortion infection lasting 3 days or longer.” Stallworthy, “Legal Abortion, A Critical Assessment of Its Risks”, The Lancet (December 4, 1971), pp. 1245-1249.
While the immediate complications of abortion are usually treatable, these complications frequently lead to long-term reproductive damage of much more serious nature.
“Whether microscopic or macroscopic in nature, the cervical damage which results during abortion frequently results in a permanent weakening of the cervix. This weakening may result in an “incompetent cervix” which, unable to carry the weight of a later “wanted” pregnancy, opens prematurely, resulting in miscarriage or premature birth. According to one study, symptoms related to cervical incompetence were found among 75% of women who undergo forced dilation for abortion.” Wren, “Cervical Incompetence—Aetiology and Management”, Medical Journal of Australia (December 29, 1973), vol. 60.
“A major study of first pregnancy abortions found that 48% of women experienced abortion-related complications in later pregnancies. Women in this group experienced 2.3 miscarriages for every one live birth. [20] Yet another researcher found that among teenagers who aborted their first pregnancies, 66% subsequently experienced miscarriages or premature birth of their second, “wanted” pregnancies.” Russel, “Sexual Activity and Its Consequences in the Teenager”, Clinics in Ob&Gyn, (Dec. 1974). vol. 1, no. 3, pp. 683-698.
Psychological effects:
1. Relief, “get it over with”, temporary goes away quickly
2. Then “numbness”
3. Studies within the first few weeks after the abortion have found that between 40 and 60 percent of women questioned report negative reactions. [4] [25] [26] Within 8 weeks after their abortions, 55% expressed guilt, 44% complained of nervous disorders, 36% had experienced sleep disturbances, 31% had regrets about their decision, and 11% had been prescribed psychotropic medicine by their family doctor. [25] Ashton, “The Psychosocial Outcome of Induced Abortion”, British Journal of Ob&Gyn. (1980), vol. 87, pp. 1115-1122. Zimmerman, Passage Through Abortion, New York: Praeger Publishers, 1977.
4. “The results revealed that at least one-third of the respondents have experienced psychological side effects. Depression, worrying about not being able to conceive again and abnormal eating behaviors were reported as dominant psychological consequences of abortion among the respondents. Decreased self-esteem, nightmare, guilt, and regret with 43.7%, 39.5%, 37.5%, and 33.3% prevalence rates have been placed in the lower status, respectively.

Why be Pro Life?: 60,236,165 AMERICAN LIVES LOST TO ABORTION SINCE 1973.*
"Instead of helping women in Roe v. Wade, I brought destruction to me and millions of women throughout the nation," Norma McCorvey (Roe)
“I saw filthy conditions in abortion clinics even when ‘Roe’ was supposed to clean up ‘back alley’ abortions. I saw the low regard for women from abortion doctors.”
McCorvey’s case went to the Supreme Court which issued the Roe decision, legalizing abortion in all 50 states. Since 1973 there have been over 50 million abortions in the U.S.
Yet as in the other abortion case Doe v. Bolton – decided the same day as Roe – neither plaintiff had an abortion, and both women eventually “had this radical conversion to the truth and dedicated their lives to really protecting the inherent dignity of the human person,” Mancini said.
If we make abortion illegal how will we care for women:
We need to look at why women are getting abortions Do they feel like they can’t support their child: Create a place for pregnant women to go and get the support that they need in order to have this child Are they afraid that they wont get a promotion at work because they are pregnant? We need to look at how businesses are run Are they afraid they wont be successful? What are we teaching women about their success Abortion promotes the idea that humans are disposable Promotes that a women reproductive system needs to be fixed Promotes that you do not need to be responsible for your actions St. Gianna Beretta Molla, pray for us!

“This is the gift with which the HolySpirit helps us make decisions in our concrete lives… God enlightens our hearts and directs our thoughts, words, and actions in accordance with his saving will.” Pope Francis
“This was my own spiritual initiation, so I can understand all these charisms. They are all part of the richness of the Lord. I am convinced that this movement is a sign of his action.” - Pope John Paul II
“At the heart of a world imbued with a rationalistic skepticism, a new experience of the Holy Spirit suddenly burst forth. And, since then, that experience has assumed a breadth of a worldwide Renewal movement. What the New Testament tells us about the charisms - which were seen as visible signs of the coming of the Spirit - is not just ancient history, over and done with, for it is once again becoming extremely topical.” - Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI)
SAINT PADRE PIO “Pray, hope and don’t worry.”
"The person who meditates and turns his mind to God, who is the mirror of his soul, seeks to know his faults, tries to correct them, moderates his impulses, and puts his conscience in order."
"After my death I will do more. My real mission will begin after my death."

THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
On the Holy Rosary, Pope St. John Paul “No one has ever devoted himself to the contemplation of the face of Christ as faithfully as Mary.

Mary lived with her eyes fixed on Christ, treasuring his every word” (On the Most Holy Rosary, nos. 10 & 11).

“My whole strength lies in prayer and sacrifice, these are my invincible arms; they can move hearts far better than words, I know it by experience."
“I have not the courage to force myself to seek beautiful prayers in books; not knowing which to choose I act as children do who cannot read; I say quite simply to the good God what I want to tell Him, and He always understands me.”

SHOW NOTES
“It is estimated that only 23 percent of U.S. Catholics attend Mass each week. Those 77 percent absent from the eucharistic feast each week are not strangers: they are our parents, siblings, spouses, children, and friends.” The Disciples Call to Witness The New Evangelization
1 Peter 3:1
Five steps to Evangelize like Christ:
Humility: Philippians 2:7 Have a willingness to listen and to be present to people: John 4 Not manipulative or seeking control: John 6:66 Trust in God and in others: Joshua 1:9 An attitude of joy: “There are Christians whose lives seem like Lent without Easter. I realize of course that joy is not expressed the same way at all times in life, especially at moments of great difficulty. Joy adapts and changes, but it always endures, even as a flicker of light born of our personal certainty that, when everything is said and done, we are infinitely loved.” - Evangelii Gaudium, Pope Francis SAINT JOHN BOSCO
“It is not enough to love the young; they must know that they are loved.”
“Do not lose any time, do good, do all the good you can and you will never regret doing it.”
“Give me souls, take away the rest.”
"First tell the devil to rest, and then I'll rest too."
Saint John Bosco, pray for us!

Psalm 13, CCC 2088.
Anxiety from the past. Fear & Depression from sin (1 Corinthians 6:11) & suffering (2 Corinthians 11:24-28)
“Go forth in peace, for you have followed the good road. Go forth without fear, for he who created you has made you holy, has always protected you, and loves you as a mother. Blessed be you, my God, for having created me.” – St. Clare of Assisi
Anxiety in the present: Genesis 1:1-4, Matthew 14:22-33, Mark 4:35-41, Proverbs 12:25
Gaudium Et Spes: 1. The joys and the hopes, the griefs and the anxieties of the people of this age, especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these are the joys and hopes, the griefs and anxieties of the followers of Christ.
“And of what should we be afraid? Our captain on this battlefield is Christ Jesus. We have discovered what we have to do. Christ has bound our enemies for us and weakened them that they cannot overcome us unless we so choose to let them. So we must fight courageously and mark ourselves with the sign of the most Holy Cross.” – St. Catherine of Sienna
Anxiety about the future: Matthew 6:25, 34, Phil 4:6-7, 1 Cor 10:13.

Matt Zemanek and Jenna DiBernardo introduce themselves in their new podcast Manna: Food For Thought, set to premiere on Saturday, November 4th, the Feast of St. Charles Borromeo. They share about their own experience in ministry, their faith as passionate Catholics, and the mission of this podcast: to encourage and inspire others as we all seek to grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ and live out the Catholic faith.
Each podcast will have a hilarious Dad/Mom joke, a mutual sharing of Joy/Junk/Jesus moments, a discussion on a Catholic topic or answering a listener's question, and a Saint segment.
