Water...

Here are two analogies for how I was feeling walking out of the PFE session on Saturday night:

I was trying to take a drink from a fire hose...
OR
I was a beginning swimmer getting thrown into the deep end without a life jacket...

Either way...I was drowning!

I went to bed Sat. night not sure what was going on and how I was going to accomplish all that was being thrown at us...Knowing we would have a full day on Sunday about RCIA as well.
Can I even do this?!? Should I even do this?!? Am I "really" being called or is this just a want?!? It has been a great experience so far, maybe I should just be done and call it good?!?

I know the thoughts in my head were coming from the adversary!

I asked my Guardian Angel to take care of that...As I slept, my Holy Guardian Angel must have been working overtime, because I woke up refreshed, hope-filled and peaceful... Morning Prayer and Holy Mass were excellent and charged me up even more...Man, the words to that last song...Powerful!!!

Sunday's session on RCIA was really informative and positive...

My ride home was peaceful and joy-filled! Just a calmness over me as I drove home and then this came to my mind:
"Cast yourself into the arms of God and be very sure that if He wants anything of you,
He will fit you for the work and give you the strength." 
~ St. Philip Neri ~

which brings me to another little quote/saying:
fortes in fide ~ latin for strong in faith

St. Philip Neri...pray for us!
