CHOOSE LIFE – On this Respect Life Sunday, the prophet Habakkuk speaks directly to those involved in the struggle to promote respect for human life: “destruction and violence are before me, there is strife, and clamorous discord,” the Lord replies, “write down the vision clearly upon the tablets…for the vision still has its time, presses on to fulfillment, and will not disappoint…” (Habakkuk, 1: 2-3)
