Journey of an Unknown Soul
Home again - to the United states I find myself...and here in my father's home - in Biglake, MN. Praise God! How He blessed my journey home and brought me, forever grateful into the arms of His sweet Mother.
St. Louis deMontfort, pray for me.
I have come to realize that I am so unworthy to be even in the seeking of God, yet in His Divine Mercy - He calls me "Daughter...Beloved"...and I am forever blessed, that our great God - may even look my way.
St. Therese, pray for me.
So many things are on my heart, and I know that this summer has to much in store for me. I turn to the throne of grace, as a beggar - only hoping to be pleasing to Him. Even though I am not sure exactly what this future of mine holds, I am so pleased that I may come to grasp the hand of all those around me, in love of them and in love of Christ.
St. Augustine, pray for me.
"Trust the past to the mercy of God, the present to His Divine Love and the future to His Divine Providence." - St. Augustine
In my afternoon walk today, God gave me the grace to turn to Thomas Kempis', Imitation of Christ. There I found words that spoke to my soul and to my mind - further setting my heart ablaze.
Opening my bible earlier today, I found a letter from my sweet friend Maria Luczak. Her sweetest affirmations and heartfelt words about the last semester and our friendship, bring me to an even greater gratefulness before the throne. We know our friendships are good when they bring us to the Cross of Christ - in thanksgiving, joy, suffering and "Alleluia!"
Yellow flowers turned white between the pages of my Bible, further confirm a strong draw for even greater purity of heart. Purity of body is so necessary and wonderful, but we must also strive further - for what it means to purity of heart.
"Blessed are the pure of heart, for they shall see God..." - Matthew 5
Life in the States is just so different then life in Europe. I find myself so thankful for both...but overwhelmingly exclaiming, "Home is where the heart is" and my heart is with my loved ones...that's for sure. There is just so much for me to meditate on from the past semester...
Some poetry...
Chaste Lover
By: Lindsey Larson
Chaste wedlock, pure in thy name.
St. Joseph you honor has given you fame.
Come to me, Protector of Life
And pour your prayers over my strife.
Forget me not as you pray
And guide me to your Queen one day.
That too should draw near, as I long for her love without fear.
Blessed be the Heart of God
Which guides my life and leads me trod.
Blessed be the Heart of Truth
Which shines me hope in Solitude.
Peaceful Suffering
By: Lindsey Larson
Underneath, there is more than you meet
Underneath, there are vast valleys
And flowering rivers deep
Underneath, all this joy and laughter - is a suffering servant.
In my life,
There are things people can't stand to hear.
Experiences in my routine life,
Are often so unreal.
And this is no glory of my own,
No sorrow I alone own -
Out all is for the King.
The King taught me how to laugh
And He taught me how to run
He taught me melody
And he taught me love.
So I will run with the King
I will laugh and I will give
I will love and I will bring
To the table all that I have
I will praise and I will dance
Join this Sacred Romance
As I am moved from wing to wing.
Peaceful Suffering.
"Restore, confirm, strengthen and establish you after you have suffered a little."
- St. Peter (2 Peter 5:10)
