I thirst...

Wandering

As I woke up this morning... I found myself spiritually somewhere rather shocking. I can't really place my finger on how and why I got here... but I am here. I will embrace the path God has me on and not run from it. Where would could I go, anyway?

Spiritual Direction

I have never had a spiritual director. I have never really had any formal Catechetical formation. (I had three months of once a week RCIA & 3 years of Catholic law school.) I honestly have learned most of my faith from my wife, her family, my family (who were not practicing Catholics), and the Catholic Blog-o-phere. I am not joking.

God's Will

I am at one of those points in life where it seems as if God said: "I'll call you right back..." and you just sit there "waiting by the phone." I know He is going to call, and I know when He does, there is going to be some awesome news forthcoming, but the minutes turn to hours. (In this case the days are turning to months).  I know that God's will should be done, and not my own. That isn't the matter. It is the patience that is the matter... and I am not well trained in this virtue.

Friends and Family

I am lucky... I have people praying for me. My family and friends are dear in this regard. I know that this wandering is temporary. I plan to learn from it. I plan to grow. I am trying to accept this as a learning opportunity and not as punishment.
