RE: We are Fighting a Battle That Has Already Been Won
https://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/dec/08122408.html
I just wanted to make a comment about the article written by Tim Waggoner.
All I’ve got to say is…Wow! Give that guy a raise!
Honestly, that article was one of the best I’ve read in a long time. I am planning to attend the March for Life event for the first time this year in Washington DC and I really found Tim’s article to be especially encouraging during these troubled times.
I am brand new to Life Site news and Tim’s article was the first thing I’ve ever read on the website, but I’m not sure that I could find anything better. Maybe it was just a word in due season for me personally, but regardless, it was certainly one of the best gifts I received this Christmas. Thanks Tim and LifeSiteNews.

Please thank Tim Waggoner for the most hopeful and insightful message about ‘Fighting a Battle that has Already Been Won’. Perhaps a better way to put it is that we are going to fight battles that we will perhaps lose but ultimately the war has been won, and we can rest in that thought. After all we have Truth on our side and He will never, ever leave us nor forsake us. Amen!
Keep up the great work!

Tim Waggoner,
What a wonderful tribute to the pro-life efforts. Believe me Tim, we can do more through prayer than this world dreams of. Keep up your noble efforts.
May God bless you in the coming New Year. You are truly filled with the Spirit of Jesus in your writings. Prayer, prayer and more prayer by the little, the lowly, the humble of this world will surely turn the tide of this battle which Jesus Himself has basically won for all of us.

The Silence of Christmas

Thank you for taking time out to generate these Christmas reflections.
Steve, I was especially moved by your testimony to the personal cost and yet blessed assurance that you’re doing the work God gave you. And I’m sure you’re very proud of John for his wise reflection on the need for silence and contemplation.

RE: With Seven Children in Narnia – Trying to Capture the Real Meaning of Christmas
https://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/dec/08122403.html
Dear John-Henry,
It’s been great to speak with you personally over the last year regarding news items. But what a treat to be introduced to your whole family through your Narnia/Christmas article!
We’ll say a prayer for your dad and family. I agree with you that sometimes the closeness between parent and child deepens – rather than diminishes – as one precedes the other to Eternity.
Our Advent tradition (which we carried off better this year than in most!) is to light the Advent candle (or candles), have my husband read from one of a few choices of Advent literature that is out there and easy to find in church supply stores or the backs of Catholic churches, and then have us all sing, “O Come, O come, Emmanuel.” I have never heard my children sing so beautifully.
