A lot has happened in the last couple of weeks!!
My good friend and brother Knight Mike Murphy, owner of Production West, Inc. in Grand Junction, CO filmed and produced a 9 minute long DVD of the Unborn Innocence story. It is my hope that the DVD will be used as a promotional tool, for the purpose of placing more Unborn Innocence Memorials to the Unborn into Churches, Homes, Schools, ~ anywhere!!,... around the world!
The most amazing thing happened on the night we gathered to film the video footage.... I was Blessed with another visit from Our Lord, and He gave me some further direction to fulfill his will. Actually, what He did, was talk to me about the need for me to do more than just make Memorials... I need to TALK more about the reason for the Memorial... share with everyone who will listen, the story that only Unborn Innocence can tell.
Naturally, I question my ability to do this. I mean with pro-life speakers of the Fr. Frank Pavone, and Shawn Carney caliber out there....just what does a hick farm kid/cowboy/truck driver/auctioneer/cabinetmaker have to offer? Would anyone find me credible? What exactly, do I say? And, just who would ever invite me to speak to them anyway??
OK, so I had more than one question!
The Lord places all sorts of people into your life, and the timing is more than just coincidence too!
The more I just "let go, and let God", the more obvious His plan becomes. It's just too bad that God created men to just flat NOT ask for directions! Not all men I'm sure, but THIS one certainly fits the category.
So, as I take baby steps to explore this newest directive, I find help there, just for the asking! I visit with my Spiritual Director, and he tells me about the witness he has seen me perform... my good cajun friend "Doc" Bergeron and his sweetheart wife call last night to tell me that I need to "tell the story more!" ..."don't be bashful Jim,...you are the only one who can tell this story....it's your story to tell" And to make matters worse, the Pastor at the Church where the latest Memorial is going has asked me to speak at every Mass on the weekend he wishes to dedicate his Parishes Unborn Innocence Memorial.
OK Lord, ...alright,... I get it....you are directing my path. As my very talented Country/Gospel Music singer/song writer-friend, Debbie Montgomery sings in one of her many inspirational sound tracks ~ "I surrender Lord,...be it done to me, according to your will". I listened to that song today, as I was driving through the beautiful Western Colorado Mountains, and it finally sank in....if the Lord wants something for me, then it will happen, and if something that I want doesn't happen,... well then, He is just protecting me from myself...
You know,....there's just a lot of comfort in knowing that!
Thank you Lord, for being my friend. I really will try to do this for you.
Ave Maria, Vivat Jesus!!..............Jim
