Since I first wrote...You and me both, Sister! :-)<br /><br />Since I first wrote this post, things have changed dramatically for me. I have discerned a call to a more contemplative order and have been accepted. My entrance date is April 29th, and it seems that the school loan obstacle is falling away since I began following God in this direction. It has not happened yet, but some miraculous things have fallen into place, and I expect to be writing about them soon. It is an exciting time, and I never would have realized that I was called to a more contemplative life, but honestly, it makes PERFECT sense, now that I see it through the eyes of Blessed Mother. Please pray for me.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09458704334823225646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164823159516078003.post-43296972204066140292011-10-23T11:16:08.216-04:002011-10-23T11:16:08.216-04:00Thank you, HB!

I can not begin to tell you how blessed I was by it! I have not experienced such peace and such tangible love of Christ since I made my own cursillo in 2004! What an incredible gift!<br /><br />So am I ever gonna see you again, dear sister o' mine? I can't believe you read the blog...I thought hardly anyone was reading it! When the weather breaks and there is a school of leaders at St Gabe's, I will probably make the trek out for it just to see people. Can't wait!

I was driving to work a few days ago with such similar thoughts :) I literally begged Him to take over completely. It's good to know how miserably I can fail when I'm navigating on my own! LOL! Our Father is so patient, loving, and forgiving. I find such peace when I slow down and pay attention. I just wish I didn't make it so hard for Him to get my attention!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15151665947539731329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164823159516078003.post-77186441093875793502011-03-01T16:35:18.242-05:002011-03-01T16:35:18.242-05:00Aloha Sylvia!

In prayer, I gave thanks to all things I thought were impossible that the Father made possible...and to please give us all faith and always believe, that in Him, nothing is impossible. I pray to keep my sesnses heightened for the miracles big and small that He gives us everyday---I don't want to miss any one of them! Love to you, Christina. Joy, I carry in my heart and you are a big part of it too. I thank God for you. =)arsec26noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-164823159516078003.post-42015343817943265082010-05-26T12:46:32.920-04:002010-05-26T12:46:32.920-04:00Thank you so much for your prayers!
