A Second Chance



A SECOND CHANCE
by Sister Mary Rose Christy


When Ionica was found in a desolate area of woods, he appeared to be about three years old.  The story told was that he had been raised by wolves.  Unable to talk, he communicated with sounds - growls and barks - much the way a pup would.  Some loose hair on his body was examined and determined to be from wolves.

We will never know for sure if Ionica was really raised by wolves, but we do know that he was born in Romania during the time of great hardship.  The economy was poor.  In order to build a large workforce, the president issued an edict that any woman with fewer than five children would be heavily taxed.  Many parents struggling to feed large families abandoned their children, believing they would be better off in an orphanage.

Soon after Ionica was found, he was brought to Riul Vadului, an orphanage in a remote area of Transylvania.  Given a second chance in life, he has flourished.  He speaks well and has become the peacemaker at the orphanage.  Hidden deep within his mind is the story of his first three years of life, but, thank God, that unusual start has left not a trace of an imprint on the tall, handsome man of today.

O LORD, TAKE MY LOVE

O Lord, take my love, and let it flow in fullness of devotion to Thee;
O Lord, take my hands, and let them work incessantly for Thee;
O Lord, take my soul, and let it be merged in One with Thee;
O Lord, take my mind and thoughts, and let them be in tune with Thee;
O Lord, take my everything, and let me be an instrument to work for Thee.
