I have a duck named Francis.....I still don't know if it is a girl or a boy yet.....but it is gonna be a big duck though... Anyway....she/he has a lil black around her eyes and head. There is a lil black on his/her wing feathers and the rest of his/her body. Also she/he is mostly gray and has white on her/his chest and belly.

OnlySunshine Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 [quote name='Lil'Monster' timestamp='1341884372' post='2454203'] Sweetness! [/quote] Yes! I love the Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal dearly. So much so that I would pray that God would call me to them. It's only when I actually went to their convent on a Vocations retreat did I understand that it wasn't His will. It made me sad at first because I loved them and was drawn to them. Now I know that simply because you are fond of a religious order, it doesn't mean you are called there 100% of the time. Now, I've become accepting of God's will and I am super happy to be discerning the order that I am right now. I'm going in there "blind" and allowing God to lead the way -- no expectations or demands of what kind of apostolate or anything. Only He knows what will truly make me happy. I never EVER considered that it might be as a missionary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
