Still need prayers against the RH bill

[Ma.Eugenia]

As from my previous post, I would like to ask for continuous prayer against the Reproductive Health Bill (RH Bill) that is poised to be foisted on the people of my country, the Philippines. Kindly see site below.

I would like to thank those who are praying for my country. Please continue with your prayers.

The fight is not over yet!

There is the third reading in congress and the senate vote to be decided…before it it signed by the President. It has been tagged as a “Priority Bill” …for reasons I and many other Filipinos do not understand.

Although the third reading is usually but a formality…I believe that there is that chance, though some say is slim, for our dear congressmen and women to dig deeper for the truth and find it in themselves to see their actions in the light of eternity and through God’s eyes.

I just watched part of the movie, A Man for All Seasons about the life of St. Thomas More. I was really touched when I heard him say,

" I am the King’s good servant, but God’s first."

Our good congressmen and women would do well to learn from his story, I think.

I am thankful for those congressmen and women who voted “Nay” in the bill. I am hopeful that those who were absent but believe that this bill shouldn’t pass to find the courage to stand up and vote for the truth. Stand up and be counted for truth and for God.

Mama Mary of Guadalupe, Papa Jospeph, St. Thomas More…please pray for my country that the RH bill will not pass.

Joining you in praying hard for the defeat of the RH Bill; and entrusting the issue to Our Lord and Our Lady:

*Lord Jesus. We trust in You!

We take refuge under thy protection,
O Holy Mother of God;
despise not our prayers for the Philippines
in its necessities,
in particular, in its fight against contraception,
but deliver it always
from all dangers,
O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.*
(Adapted from the Sub Tuum prayer to Our Lady.)

uch: Ok…RH bill got passed by both chanbers (congress and senate)

What to do next?

Should I cry?
Nope…that will mean that I lost hope. I believe that God will correct this wrong in His time and in His way…and His ways and plans for us, are always far more beautiful that we can ever imagine.

Just like the stories in the Bible (Ex: Moses, Tobit and Job, etc.)…God allows some bad to happen…but always for us to learn something and become closer to HIm, Eventually…He will not allow evil to triumph over good.

Should I get angry at our government leaders?
Nope…I think that its a big mistake on their part but I know that as human beings— like unborn babies and mothers who will detrimentally affected by this law they just voted for —these pro-choice government officials, are also loved by God. I would pray for them instead… that they will have the grace to know the truth about what I see and I believe many other people also see as a “bill from hell”.

Prayer that is the way I will go. Violence is never the answer. Only the devil likes violence. We should never ever go through that path.

Should I accept it as final and just agree with the winners? …NOOOOOOOO! I still disagree. I still think it is wrong.

One of my favorite quotes from Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, I think, best sums up what I believe just occured in my country regarding this RH bill.

“Moral principles do not depend on a majority vote. Wrong is wrong , even if everybody is wrong. Right is right even if nobody is right.”

Please continue to pray for my country and for those who disagree with this bill to still have HOPE and to continue to have the COURAGE to still speak out on the truth about this bill…even when it is signed into law.

Hail Mary…

That’s the spirit, Ma. Eugenia. We’ll keep on praying … In the end, Our Lord will have the final say - in His time.
