"And God will look at us and say not, 'Did you succeed?' but 'Did you try?'

Heather shares some of her thoughts and prayers from Adoration yesterday. It is well worth reading, as is her whole blog for that matter.

I was so happy to see that she was there at the same time that I was. It is odd how you can have known someone for such a short time and yet feel closer to them that one would think. I felt as if I were greeting a long-time pal but then realized we only knew each other from the Pro-Life March. Truly, a friend is a gift from God ...

As Heather did, I felt very familiar feelings from Adoration, though mine almost always are of an overwhelming peace, that peace which "passeth all understanding" and this has carried on into today which is, of course, very welcome. I also felt it quite appropriate that the preschool children were brought in for their Friday "church time" while we were there in adoration to pray for an end to abortion. My thoughts were so much with the abortion providers and, especially, those zealous and hard-faced "escorts" who we saw outside the abortion clinic when we were there praying not so long ago. Prayers for a change of heart, for clear sight, for the truth to penetrate.
