Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Thursday, February 10, 2011

Why does evil exist?...Only Christian faith as a whole constitutes the answer to this question....There is not a single aspect of the Christian message that is not in part an answer to the question of evil.
- CCC No. 309

Reflection:
Many ask, "How can there be a God with so much evil in the world?" Christianity asks a different question: "If there is no God, how does one explain virtue, love, and all the good they have inspired?"



Prayer: Jesus, you sweat blood meditating on the evil of the world; help us to understand the true consequences of our actions.
