Terri Schiavo, Jeb Bush, and Chalk One Up for the Good Guys

Dear Lord,

When evil seems so rampant,
and wickedness seems the way of the world,
thank you, Lord,
that we see men and women of good will
trying to do the right thing.

Lord, we hold up not just Terri,
but all the poor incapacitated people
whose caregivers think
that giving care
means giving death.

Lord, help us who know
that you are the giver of life
speak when we see evil,
shout instead of whisper,
and call evil for what it is.
