It has been quite sometime since I have really desired within myself the religious life. Suddenly today, I feel such a strong desire. It is almost flame like, engulfing my heart in love. I feel it may have to do with reading Showings by Julian of Norwich. It is such a simple and straightforward text, but at the same time filled to the brim with such a rich and deep love of God. It is beautiful. I am not quite through it all and I have more than half of it to finish, but it is just so beautiful in the way that the love of God shines forth so brilliantly.
I feel such a desire for God although it has been sometime since it feels like I have had a sincere desire for Him. There have been times where I have broken down into tears just telling Jesus, I know I need You, but I can't hold on to You! I want You but I need to do better and stay closer to You.
Jesus I need You.
Lord, Thy Will Be Done.
About Me
- Angela Louise
- Illinois, United States
- Hello. My name is Angela. I am seeking to enter the religious life as a Poor Clare Colettine. Things have changed over the past several years. I am also an unemployed college graduate and I sometimes have the occasional profound thought. I am not a well of knowledge, but I can suffice just being a puddle of some wit and a little wisdom. God bless you all abundantly!
