Yesterday, I was reading, and I use cards or napkins well anything
really to bookmark the page I am on and as I was reading a card fell out and
this card, I got from my mum on one of my birthdays says the following.
“A wish for my daughter I wish for
you to always be true to yourself, to be strong and stand up for what you believe
in. Be bold, be brave, follow your dreams, and shine your magnificent light on
the world.”
Author Adele Basheer.
In life we grow up move out and start our own families or we find
people we call family but now and then it is nice to have a reminder especially
from your mum to keep you on the right track. Sometimes, on our journey through
life we may face adversities there are difficulties, fear, and heartache. As we
navigate through life, we always seek to find someone who will guide, teach, direct,
and go through our hardships, trials, and tribulations with us. For me that is
God, he never strays he is always making me a better disciple who can be a missionary.
We all have different experiences in life and we all can bring something to the
game or to the table because I have a burning desire to preach or to share my
thoughts on God’s words with you all and with my children and to lead and guide
you in your faith, Also over the years I have come to yearn the celebration of
the Eucharist and that has come through maturing and growing in my own faith.
Although I feel as though I am asked to enter but I am made to crawl
on my hands and knees to be counted and accepted as a daughter, a mother, and a
woman of faith, hope and love. Apart of me wants to enter and walk in as a
child, a sister, and a daughter of God’s. I am a Catholic who yearns to grow in
her faith and who hungers for knowledge and truth about God, Jesus, and The
Holy Spirit. I don’t know why I am never enough or excluded and rejected for my
heart and soul where awaken by the Good News of Jesus Christ and I now not only
believe in Jesus, but I am also in love with him, and he is in love with me. I
want to mention and finish here with a verse from 1 John 4:18-21, Saint John
has changed my life and has helped me to understand God’s love and that is my
mission to go, make others believe in the love of God and this year Women of
Faith and Hope by Mother Rose we have done that we are learning and growing in
the fine art of love.
‘In love there can be no fear, but
fear is driven out by perfect love; because to fear is to expect punishment,
and anyone who is afraid is still imperfect in love. We are to love then
because he loved us first. Anyone who says, ‘I love God,’ and hates his
brother, is a liar, since a man who does not love the brother that he can see
cannot love God, who he has never seen. So, this is the commandment that he has
given us, that anyone who loves God must also love his brother. Whoever believe
that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten by God; and whoever loves the Father
that begot him loves the child whom he begets.’
