This time, I want to write about the National Right to Life
Convention we attended in Washington DC. Pro-lifers from all around the
country gather once a year to share their ideas and experiences. I had
the oppotunity to meet and learn from pro-life leaders, and the
testimony of Bobby Schindler really made me think about the depth of the
life issue.
He told us an encouraging story. "An old man was picking up starfishes and throwing them back to the sea. A little boy asked him why he was doing it, as he would not be able to save all the starfishes in the sand. Picking up a strafish and giving it back to the sea, he answered: I have saved this one."
I realised there is a lot of people fighting for life and defending the rights of the ones who cant speak for themselves. Even when it gets hard, we have to keep in mind that a small gesture can make a big difference.
