Optimism -- and a call for prayer

Some optimism. I think it's very plausible. (h/t Neo-NeoCon)

Don't lose hope, and don't believe the polls! Just go on Tuesday and VOTE for McCain/Palin!!

And keep praying!

"If my people, upon whom my name has been pronounced, humble themselves and pray, and seek my presence and turn from their evil ways, I will hear them from heaven and pardon their sins and revive their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14

My suggestion, humbly submitted for your consideration:

• This weekend, go to confession, if you haven't recently.
• Keep praying the rosary, and the prayer to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal ("Oh Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.")
• Offer up your Masses this weekend for the election, and go to Mass on Monday and Tuesday if you possibly can.
• Keep making little sacrifices of various things and offer them up.
• Some churches are having all night vigils. Contact your local parish to see if they are.
  

The only thing that will save this country is prayer, repentance, sacrifice. Hearts need to be changed: we need to turn away from sin and turn back toward God. We need to beg his mercy for the terrible sin of abortion and all the other immorality, the greed, the corruption, the pride, the sacrilege and heresy.

I am haunted by what Father Corapi (and others) have said: Where there is moral collapse, there is economic collapse, then government and military collapse.

We are on a terrible path.

God have mercy on us all.
