St. Marcellin Champagnat, who lived in a time of turmoil, from the Revolution of 1789, and through the revolution of 1830, in the clutches of poverty, borrowing and begging, would constantly remind the brothers to fear nothing for we have God as our defender. In that same light, Jesus admonished his followers there was nothing fear, even though the temple be destroyed, nations rise against nations, famines, earthquakes, and plagues ravish the world. (Lk 21:5-11). The important thing is to trust and keep focused on him. How true for us in the age of unrest and division in which we live.. God is faithful and ever remains our defender.
