May God help us. There was no other reason for this synod than to wink at sins of the flesh. All at Francis' initiative.
Keep praying. You may be surprised by the Holy Spirit pulling something out of His hat here. Something similar to +Paul VI appointing all those pro-contraceptors to his Birth Control Study Commission, and then reaffirming the true and perennial (no-contraceptives) teaching of the Church in Humanae Vitae.
I get discouraged too, but I read somewhere recently (was it in one of the prayers at Mass? I sang at our Latin Mass yesterday) that what we ask of God, we ask in joyful confidence which comes from our trust in his infinite goodness.
That was, and is always, quite a challenge to me.
**May God help us.**
Amen.
Pray the Rosary for the Synod.
