Jumping off the ride

The need to be able to rest and have time to be alone is a great thing. Yet, one that seems to be hard to find. One way or another I'll be able to find some of this. Being able to seek after what it is I'm being called to is not easy. When it feels that I'm being pulled in so many ways. At some point all of us need to jump of the ride and walk away to just be. What ever it is at that moment to be present to God. No matter what we might be feeling or thinking about. He already knows and wants us to come to Him any way.

Making the point

Know a week later I keep going back to the all that was talked about over the weekend. The unmistakable bound that has been made over the weekend. Without a second thought the Holy Spirit was defiantly at work with all us. Also, there is no mistaking, that God has His way of making sure a point hits home.

As we made out down to the lake (picture is of Lake Michigan and not of the lake at Holy Family) dark clouds started to drift over us. While we were making our way to the shore line to reflect on baptism. Either we were to come back together in ten minutes. Well, you may have guessed, it started to rain for about ten minutes. This is, at least for me, just one of many moments that the point has been made. In many ways, as I am seeking out what it is I am being called to. I know that the Holy Spirit is moving and confirming the way I'm going.

Understanding

How can I help those understand the way I have been choising the path I am going down? I don't know that anyone can really understand. Unless, one is also going though a simlar journy. Allowing the Holy Spirit to work with in the hearts of those who are supportive. Yet, seemingly at a distance. I would love for those I care for to really understand. I can not make them understand. It is not up to me for them to be able see or understand.
