Italy’s new far right Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni:
"Why is the family an enemy? Why is the family so frightening. Everything that defines us is now an enemy for those who would like us to no longer have an identity and to simply be perfect consumer slaves. They attack national identity and religious identity, they attack gender identity and family identity. I must be a number. Because when I am only a number, when I no longer have an identity or roots, then I will be the perfect slave at the mercy of financial speculators. That’s why we inspire so much fear—because we do not want to be numbers. We will defend the value of every single human being. Because each of us has a unique genetic code that is unrepeatable. That is sacred. We will defend it. We will defend God, country, and family. Chesterton wrote, more than a century ago: "Fires will be kindled to testify that two and two make four. Swords will be drawn to prove that leaves are green in summer." That time has ARRIVED. We are ready. Thank you."
Night Prayer
(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
Inspiration
Our ability to manage a household reflects our strength in governing our church home. We need our spiritual affairs to be in order as we conduct business within our homes. We must show spiritual leadership when managing finances, making plans, or disciplining our children; because we attribute these same skills in the way we manage our church budget, coordinate events, or discipline those who wander away from the Word.
Prayer
Dear Lord, Thank You for the gift of a church home. We love our personal and spiritual family and will take the necessary steps to manage both areas of our lives. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
