My precious Lord...Saint Padre Pio...Dad....I discovered that the greatest strength of God, is readily available to everyone who desires great silence . A silent prayerful life has taken its hold over me. It is increasing my faith, enriching my values, and molding me into the woman I have always desired to be. I am so very thankful to have the daily support of my creator, guiding my spiritual growth. Inspiring me to study the life of the saints, the history of my religion, and the opportunity to share it with my family of podcasters. The history of yesterday is equally as important to the history of today. There are Saints greatly respected during my life time, as there are equally saints who were born and served Christ centuries ago. God had given them each a purpose and many were true to their calling. I believe you and I as Christians have that same invitation. We are invited to take part in this wonderful mystery of faith with God, even though we cannot see Him, he is there, he is present and alive leading us righteously towards heaven. That same God lives in everyone we love. If only we could take the initiative and share the same God we know and love with everyone who has yet to discover the importance of living which includes Christ living at the helm of every life. If only we could talk to one another about the daily experiences happening to us where Gods hand interjected and made everything better. That is what I love the most about sharing this important apostolate. God is revealing himself over and over again, and I recognize that every breadth, every step, He allows. I could not be with you at this moment writing, editing, recording, without God present because I believe He is doing everything through me. I can never take the credit of something of this great. I wake up every morning because of his grace and for the great work He wants for me to accomplish for his own. That's it. If we could die to the desires of the self we would all see more clearly the truth about our self in every single situation. We would benefit greatly to set aside our pride in exchange of humility. We have to desire Christ first, so that we are emptied out of our foolish nature. And when we see ourselves for who and what we really are, it is there the work begins and a sort of detox takes place and God purifies us and makes us realize we are nothing and that He is everything. This takes a mature mindset. This takes real strength and we get there if we become serious about our self, our life, and where we are all heading. Sure, we can live an entire life without recognizing Christ, and on our death bed desire to know him. But why wait that long when we have the ability to know Him and meet Him everyday. For those who deny Christ, I want to invite you to think about why it is you have chosen to separate yourself from a lifetime more incredible than any other life you will ever live?
We must pray more so for one another. That prayer will bring the greatest unity this universe has ever experienced. We must never give up on each other. We must help each other in every situation. It is then we will bridge the gap and unify. I believe prayer will unify this division, prayer will enlighten the darkness that overshadows the greatness of every man and every woman deserving what Christ himself believes to be the truth, the way, and the life, for the one that is lived in Him, will live forever!
