September 20 - The Meditations of the last 2 weeks have been by priests who gave the invocations at the Democratic and Republican conventions. They didn't vilify or label the others as being evil. They prayed that we might be one nation under God. As tempers flare, a few fringe clergy will try to tell you who to vote for. And yet, the Church has struggled for centuries to avoid being engaged in partisan politics. It damages the Church and takes away your role as mature adults. The Church will educate on moral issues and help you to form your consciences. But in the end, the vote is yours. Now pray to the Holy Spirit for humility and wisdom.
