"From the Diocese of Providence, Rhode Island: Statement from Bishop Thomas J. Tobin - Supreme Court and "Same-Sex Marriage"

A thousand courts may rule otherwise, but the very notion of "same-sex marriage" is morally wrong and a blatant rejection of God’s plan for the human family. As Pope Francis taught while serving as Archbishop in Argentina: "Same-sex marriage is not simply a political struggle, but it is an attempt to destroy God’s plan. It is a move of the ‘father of lies’ who seeks to confuse and deceive the children of God."

Despite the current trends of our society, or perhaps because of them, the Church must redouble its commitment to proclaim and defend authentic concepts of marriage and family as we have received them from God. We will always do so, however, in a respectful, charitable and constructive manner."

Don't live trying to make the best of each day, let each day make the best of you

Each day gives us the opportunity to be our best if we let it. In each moment what is God saying to us through another person, event, nature, music or whatever it may be. Are we cooperating with his grace in it? Did we recognize him in it? Did we respond to it? If we really become constantly aware of who we are and who we are not, then we can let each day make us our best.
