Paving the way to live more fully the life God has given.  I am working very hard on perfecting the spirit living within my soul.  We all have an identity.  We all need to identify that identity with Christ.  I am in that exact crossroad.  Today I am moments away from the interviewing process that takes place prior to receiving my temporary promise as a third order Dominican.  I am sharing this moment with you personally because I want to specifically ask you for your prayers.  This is an important request that I feel comfortable in sharing with you my podcast family.  I am hoping to do great things in the future for my faith, and at the same time, be encouraging and inspiring others to immitate the Christ, the God Man that we all know and love so much.  So I thank  you from the bottom of my heart as I have emptied myself of self to focus more on the eternal future that awaits us all.  We cant see it but it does exist. And I want to be engaged and prepared for the journey by stepping up in blind faith to God, and our holy mother Mary, trusting fully in her personal intercession that will eventually lead me directly to her son.  I will be praying also for all of you at this time.  May the will of God be the choice you prefer in this lifetime and well into the next.  He has great plans for you and I, above and beyond what we know, what we see, and what we have done.  We trust, in faith, that our creator created us for a perfection that we cannot obtain without him.  And in love, and in self surrender, we get there, guided by the Holy Spirit.  Who knows all things, and is in all things, he has ever created.  We are so small, so miniscule, nothing, on our own, but in Christ, we are heirs to a king and that makes us exceptional in the eyes of God. We need to think more like this, in order to obtain the gifts of grace that were meant for all of his children.  And only then, we can tap into that great big well of grace and see the face of God smiling upon us in everything we do.  Because we do it all for him.  That is what makes life so worth living, when we distinctively choose to live it in Him.  It is then we find our way and our path is made straight and our sorrow turns to joy and we understand ourselves through this relationship with our heavenly creator and everything finally makes perfect sense.  For I was once lost, but now I am found.  There is no doubt, only trust in the Lord that loves us and created us for moments like this.  May you too desire to seek and find Jesus in your own moment of telling.  And be sure to share it with the world.  The world needs to know Christ exists in every heart, in every soul, in everyone he has ever created.  It is then we have a better understanding of life, of love, of joy, of faith, and living our best life out serving the one true God that loves us all, even to the end of time!
