Vulnerable post, here I come.
I didn’t use to believe in God… I was raised Catholic and when my parents divorced we were basically told we weren’t welcome in the Catholic church anymore. I thought as a child, I did all the right things to be in God’s arms. I was baptized, I did confirmation, I could take the Eucharist.. I went to church every Sunday- what more could you ask for from a child of Christ?
SO, I stopped believing. God didn’t seem like he loved me anymore. I WAS SO WRONG.
God has a way with timing. People say “timing is everything” in terms of relationships or careers, etc.; well it could not be more true than in your walk with God. “His timing is everything.”
Loving someone that I couldn’t see or touch was so delusional to me, for so many years. God had a different plan for me. Having faith again got me through some really rough times in 2018. I am forever thankful. So, so grateful. He made me believe again. Believe he has a greater plan for me than I didn’t know was even possible. I may be weak- he gives me strength.
*Serenity Prayer *:
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
As it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
If I surrender to His Will;
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life
And supremely happy with Him
Forever and ever in the next.
Amen.

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
