He is almost Risen! Let's all keep the RCIA candidates in our prayers since they will be fully received into the Church this evening during the Easter Vigil this evening!
Here's are last set of Week 2 questions:
Ch 16 - What do you think of when you hear the word "water"? Where do I need this water and for what?
Ch 17 - "This is part of the beauty of faith, that God's waters are offered, they're ready for us, ready to fill our thirst, but never forced on us." pg 92; What does this statement mean to you or how has it applied to your life?
Ch 18 - "Sometimes hope comes in the form of a million faces you have yet to meet." pg 100 What are some ways that you can imagine hope coming to you in the form of a face you have yet to meet?
Happy day before Easter!
Ch 16 - When I hear the word "water" I think of being refreshed from heat and thirst, being clean, growth, and drought (guess that last one is a result of living in CA!). I think that I need this water to renew me in my vocation as a wife. I have so many things pulling at me from being a mom, participating in church, preparing for next baby, and working, that my vocation of a wife often gets put on the back burner when it really should be at the forefront, right behind my relationship with God.
ReplyDeleteCh 17 - This statement just reminds me that God is always there for me (and for all) just waiting for us to let him flow into us. I especially need to remember this when it comes to family members who have not yet let that door open. I need to realize that it can't be forced, but just remember that living by example and letting God work is the best way for God's waters fill them.
Ch 18 - This statement is a reminder to me that God places people in our lives who are there to help us along our journey. As I encounter things in the future, I'm sure there will be people I will meet who will provide just what I need at the time. I hope that I will be present and in touch with God enough to actually recognize this when it is happening!
