Temptations And Trials

gracelinesheader

“My son, when you come to serveTemptation Sign of the Cross the Lord, prepare yourself for trials.”

                                  ~Sirach 2: 1

 

 

 

For Reflection:

This passage from Scripture indicates that as I seek to fulfill God’s will for me, I will encounter trials, and it encourages me to be prepared for them. One way in which we experience spiritual trial is through temptation. What are the temptations which most entice me now? Am I prepared to face them? (See tomorrow’s Grace Line to see why preparation for temptation is so important.)

Abandoned: The Untold Story of the Abortion Wars by Monica Miller: H C, 336 pages Click Here For More Information                  AUTHOR'S NOTE Only one person who appears in this book has asked for anonymity and out of respect for that wish the author has used a pseudonym.  The author also took the liberty of not using the true names of the owners of "Pet Haven" cemetery--nor the true name of the cemetery--to spare these persons any further public scandal that involved their business.  Other than these few changes, the author has tried to be as historically faithful as possible to the conversations and episodes as they occurred.
