WORD 2day: 28th December, 2013

The Feast of the Holy Innocents


The innocents die, even today!
Due to the malice of minds and the avarice of various kinds, innocents die even today.
At the hands of the oppressive forces with heartless greed for power and dominance, innocents die even today.
By the selfish acts of the conniving perverts and the corrupt bigwigs, innocents die even today.
The authentic culture of a society can be understood by the way it treats its children, its elders, its weak and its helpless members, they say. That is why the Holy Father Pope Francis keeps insisting on our care for the children, the elders, the sick and the weak. Let not just our prayers be raised today but our commitment too towards protecting the rights and the well being of the helpless innocents!
