I've been beyond freaking out lately for various reasons and I was reminded recently that it has nothing to do with me being "inexperienced" and only on #2 but that its um, well, labor? Yeah. So thanks for reinforcing that. Ok not the point of your post... but yes to all the prayer and muscle confusion and everything. So good.kate @ be merry, katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12267497102097890814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-50329269661673737382014-01-22T11:56:07.620-05:002014-01-22T11:56:07.620-05:00So much truth in this post...I can definitely rela...So much truth in this post...I can definitely relate, Colleen.

And you actually heard it? <br /><br />Beautiful.<br /><br />My goal this year is to try to see Jesus as many times as possible each week, daily Mass, Adoration, (even just short visits)....so far, it keeps me yearning for more. Hmmmmm...muscle confusion...workout done. Love that.

I'm probably not the first to tell you about Fr. Jacques Phillipe and his books, but I can't recommend his book "Searching for and Maintaining Peace" enough. It's really brief, but I go through it slowly since each page is something I want to read over and over again.

When I find myself worrying, I immediately ask forgiveness and then repeat "I trust you, Jesus". That seems to help ease my worried mind.

In fact, I was hoping to write something soon about the sin of Pride, which relates to what you were saying. (no offense) I did find a good prayer called the Litany of Humility, which I'm going to print out and pray. It's a good one.

He was so sweet and kind…telling me not to get so stressed over this…that a new job outside the home would take adjustments…for my husband…for my kids…and for me. He reminded me that God was big enough and could handle it…and then when the time was right I could ease back into it. <br /><br />And Father was right. While I've still struggled a bit with rising earlier than others to get some quiet prayer/Scripture time in…I've slowly found a new rhythm to life. <br /><br />I really love your Pastor's idea of making Spiritual resolutions, though! I might have to challenge myself in this area. I love Adoration, but I do not go the extra mile to carve out time for Jesus… :(<br /><br />Hugs!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01044515293667186404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-8511751236933492512014-01-21T17:02:33.776-05:002014-01-21T17:02:33.776-05:00Thank you for the reminder.
