Lil'Monster Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Less than a Month away!! I think I [s]will be going [/s] [b]I AM CRAZY [/b] because I have been going through alot lately. This will be my third dsmme retreat and people are probably thinking "I hope lilmon will just enter already" Sorry folks it is not that easy. As I said earlier I have been going through alot of things right now and I feel like I am on a rollarcoaster with up's and down's....and even upside downs too! And please continue to pray for my discernment and that I will get the chance to speak with Sr. Joseph Andrew to discuss some things with her. I will not tell you what I wished to talk with her about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egidio Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Be Brave. God does not trick us with the inspirations He gives us! Remember, once you enter the convent, you have many years before you make a final commitment. It is sort of a long engagement, with plenty of time to see if it really is what God wants. I will continue to pray for you, so that all obstacles might be removed between you and the Holy Will of God.

emmaberry101 Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 [quote name='Lil'Monster' timestamp='1350017933' post='2492637'] I didn't say I was going to enter the convent.............. [/quote] I think he was assessing your situation plus your OP and gently nudging you towards entering. Hope I am not putting words in Egidio's mouth.

Mary's Margaret Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 God bless you, Mon. You are in my prayers as you find your way through this time. God will light the way (but only one step at a time!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Maybe you should! Honestly I too think that you're you're young, so you haven't anything to loose if you enter the convent and then see it is not your way of life.

Egidio Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Discernment can definitely be the most painful thing to go through. It is extremely personal and often seems just like a "roller coaster" ride, going in all directions with no sight of a ending point! It took me 4 times before I finally entered. It became extremely complex. I thought that entering would mean the end of all things (well not quite). But after about a month, I couldn't understand why I had been so concerned, and even afraid. I will pray that what ever it is that God is asking of you, and offering to you, that you will with great peace and courage accept and embrace it. In any case, even if you are not called, you can never have too many retreats. [color=#000080][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]AVE MARIA![/font][/size][/color] PS. This is my 100th post.

I don't want to waste my precious time by doing it though...... If I was in the boat of really knowing that this is what God called me.....I wouldn't be able to enter anyways. I got too much in my life as it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
