life I always knew God was there but didn’t know how to look within.
I became obsessed with my feelings and my concerns. I thought I
was the only one suffering and being rejected. It was not until God’s
loving grace came to me and changed my focus from me to God. I
turned my life over to God. He is the center of the universe, my uni-
verse. God did for me what I could not do for myself. Seek and you
will find, ask and you will receive… words that kept going through my
mind. I will not go off or run in pursuit of images. I look for the
knowledge of God from within my soul. The peace and serenity that I
so long for and the wisdom to know that the word of the Lord endures
forever; it is firm as the heavens.
This epiphany brought me to Holy Family and to RCIA in 2009 when I
was in great need of God’s loving grace. Through RCIA, the revela-
tion of God’s words shed light, giving understanding to my simple
soul. Your word oh Lord endures forever. Great is the wisdom of the
Lord.
Prayer
I pray oh Lord that the Kingdom of God will always be within me.
Please guide me to follow you faithfully. May my modest contribution
in life be to help build the knowledge of Christ within to all. We ask
this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
