3/23/04 - A Comment about the MacFarlane Post

I just want to mention that I did not post the news about Bud and Bai Macfarlane on 3/22 to gossip or bash Bud M. Rather, I am hoping we can join in prayer not only for Bud, Bai, their kids, and the apostolates but for all Catholic couples and marriage in general.

It goes to show that we are all prone to sin and Satan will work overtime to knock down Catholics who are an example to others. In this way he damages not only the individual but all those around them. All our sin damages the body of Christ but some sin is a lot more visible and a lot more damaging. Whether our lives are public or private we have to pray and work dilligently to stay united to Christ and do do all we can to help other do the same.

This is such sad news, Bobbi - those poor little boys! My heart goes out to them. Prayers that God's grace will break through in their marriage and bring healing and reconciliation.

Love and God bless,
Mary

+ No one could imagine that this is meant as gossip. Marriage is a public sacrament and the health of society will depend on the strength of its families. We are all praying for this family and families everywhere who are in need of graces. How few have people to pray for them!
