More than One Way to Kill Innocents/Innocence

Ave Maria Meditations

As terrible as was the murder of the babies of Bethlehem when the wicked king sought to kill the baby Jesus, the “murder” of the innocence of children in this day and age is no less heinous.  Let us pray for the protection of our young people and the conversion of those who wish to damage them in many ways including physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.

PRAYER:

We remember today, O God, the slaughter of the Holy Innocents of Bethlehem by King Herod. Receive, we pray, into the arms of Your mercy all innocent victims; and by Your great might frustrate the designs of evil tyrants and establish Your rule of justice, love and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Our Lady found this unworthy lukewarm person and obtained for her the grace to enter the Third Order of the Franciscans of the Immaculate. May this person spend all eternity in showing her gratitude.
