finally I hear Him
So i haven't been calling out in vain. I think God is also trying as desperately to reach me but I'm just too blinded by all my troubles. Been subscribing to this daily mass readings. yesterday it was the importance of prayer and talking to God instead of being overwhelmed by daily things. and this is today's:
Healing : Many of us pray for physical healing of an illness; psychological healing of a depression, but seldom spiritual healing of our anger and rejection of God etc. Our “spiritual health” is most important because without it everything in our life crumbles; with it and with God , we can withstand any crises.
so true.. i really have been neglecting my faith a lot and now that i'm in such a turbulent time, as i had told a few people the past few days - i feel like i'm crumbling. and yea.. there you go. God is finally reaching through to me. whew. i'm happy and at the same time.. thankful that i bothered to open it and read it today instead of deleting it because i get too many emails and there isn't time to read it.
today's reading:
"A leper came to Jesus and pleaded on his knees saying, ‘If you are willing, you can cleanse me.’ Feeling sorry for him, Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him and said to him, ‘I am willing. Be cleansed.’ And at once the skin-disease left him and he was cleansed.
And at once Jesus sternly sent him away and said to him, ‘Mind you tell no one anything, but go and show yourself to the priest, and make the offering for your cleansing prescribed by Moses as evidence to them.’ The man went away, but then started freely proclaiming and telling the story everywhere, so that Jesus could no longer go openly into any town, but stayed outside in deserted places. Even so, people from all around kept coming to him." Mark 1: 40-45
yea.. i will slowly but surely climb out of this mess. then i'll arrange everything nicely so that i can handle them one at a time and deal with it properly. then i'll move along with life! with God. ok... took a little break from school stuff today. going to write my german friend a letterr. pictures from exchange soon. (when i'm more stable and less emo!) AND HELLO FRIENDS LET'S GO OUT!!!!! =D
