God's Grace

"If you really want to love Jesus, first learn to suffer, because suffering teaches you to love..."

ROUGH ONE: I cant even begin to describe how rough this week has been for me. Not that Im sitting here trying to say, 'woe is me, life sucks.' It really is through the grace of God that allows me to continue to keep on keepin' on. I was taken back by the picture on banne's bog where it had the picture of leliani holding a rock that said 'pray.' Ahh yes, it was such a simple picture but with such a strong conviction that captured me. It was the perfect reminder God was pushing me to do. Pray. I gotta get back on prayer mode track again. I've been to caught up in frustration and impatience, that I'm forgetting to let God's will be done, and not my own. I read on fred's blog that last week during mass the priest at Our Lady of Refuge said, 'You can better see God, if you have an active prayer life.' Rob offered me a deal to try and not complain for juss one day. Talk bout offering errthang up! Maan...that's something I'm going to try and work on. Yesterday at work I was talking to one of my coworkers and we were talking bout St. Therese on how she had a rough life yet did and offered errthang she had with a smile. Praise God for the Saints who teach us how to become better people.

SUNRISES: I went back to listening to that song God's with us and it means so much in so many ways. The lyrics of the song juss soothes my soul, helping me to realize God really is with us. Going back to the passing of my lolo when the first thing father said in his homily was, 'God never abandons us.' Through each difficult moment in my life, big or small God was there. Tuesday was comforting after some time resting in front of the Blessed Sacrament during Adoration. It was as if God's hand was touching my shoulder letting me know things were going to be alright. Catching up w/Allen was great, even though we may not talk as much as last year, I'm still grateful that we can talk. He cracks me up. The funny thing about this week is that all the crazy stuff had nothing to do w/work ha. God bless that broken road...



It's time for a change!

"Those who aren't afraid to show what their souls expose..."im done, im out God bless!
