"The Father Works in Quiet"

“I need to tell you something: I think the Father works in the quiet at least this has been my experience. We are sometimes waiting on this sensational healing, this one-and-done type of thing. I know some people who have had that, and I do not doubt their experience. For me, the Father has been quiet, slow, and gradual with me, because he knows it is what I need. Quietly sending the Son, sending the Spirit, sending Mary, sending Joseph. But always to him, always toward him, always his will and his dream for us, his daughters.”

“Opening My Heart”

This small decision to create more space for silence was a big shift for me. I am more grateful. Every morning as I open my eyes, I thank God for another day of life on this earth and invite the Spirit to help order my day. I am opening my heart in ways I never thought possible.

"He Knows My Heart"

“I believe I can place all my wants in His hands, with the hope that He knows my heart more than I do. This ongoing process of learning to detach from my own ways while placing my trust and hope in the Lord is painful. But, I’m comforted by the words of St. Paul: The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us, Romans 8:18. Sisters, no matter what lies ahead, we have reason to hope.”

"Keep Your Eyes On Jesus"

If you find yourself avoiding or wrestling with God; if you’re suffering, doubting, deeply hurt, lost or feel alone, pick up a Bible. Start with the Psalms or the Gospels. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you. Keep opening yourself up to God, and keep your eyes on Jesus no matter how many waves surround you. I promise you He will not let you fall.
