I could only chuckle to myself. It is so true how human it is to want praise. But then again it gives us a chance to praise God and be thankful for those in our lives who remind us of what is truly important.<br />I too feel like Anne and God has led me by way of the Practice of the Presence of God by brother Lawrence. Life is too complex to be trying to figure out if I am doing God's will or not but too accept that each moment whether at prayer or work I am in God's presence and all to bring him glory.<br />You are in my prayers Sister,<br />God bless,<br />LindaLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03679128824542229646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-694733281909491975.post-63687391912589491432009-07-22T20:05:13.252-04:002009-07-22T20:05:13.252-04:00I don't mind at all.

Lord willing, I will be offering more selections from this book. There are so many spiritually nourishing books that people don't know about... If there's a particular book you'd like to see featured (e.g., you can't get it at a bookstore or library), please let me know via e-mail. I may be able to offer some selections at some point if we have the book in our library. Preference given to Carmelitana, of course. :)<br /><br />I'd like to ask all of you to please pray for me and my community. Actually, please pray for all religious. It is very easy to say, "Oh, this is nice. I'll type it up." May I (and all of us) come to learn and grow from the things I blog. All priests and religious are in great need of the prayerful support of the faithful. <br /><br />Please be patient with me. I blog in little minutes here and there. In the cloister, Mass, the Office, and obedience take precedence over everything else. Also, keep in mind that I purposely present the selections at random. I may miss a memorial of the Church here and there. So please forgive the oversight.<br /><br />Please pray for me.

It is very beautiful and speaks to the human heart that longs for "Truth." Only when we really place our Lord first and foremost in our lives will we really see the transformation taking place. In the midst of so much suffering, problems eg. personal or otherwise I cannot understand how one doesn't see the need for God in their lives. Jesus is the one that sees us thru EVERYTHING and He is their waiting ever so patiently in the Tabernacle for our visit. To console Him and to give Him our love and our lives. May I learn to quiet the noise of the world and listen ever so intently to the voice of the Good Shepherd that loves us so. Jesus teach me to be a simple and humble servant to you and my brothers and sisters. Thank you dear Sister for this apostolate you so tirelessly and lovingly share with us. A blessed day to you and all who visit. The Child Jesus and His Holy Mother shower their love upon the world!

I think that for me the challenge to discovering God's presence in everyone and every situation lies in remaining calm and interiorly peaceful. When my emotions run on high I can't see what He has set before me. Always striving for that purity of heart!

Prayer is non-negotiable. I love the easy advice of Brother Lawrence, I try to turn everything I am doing all day long into a prayer, with my mind constantly on Jesus, my thoughts a never-ending conversation with Him.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06195528409761980551noreply@blogger.com
