Let all of that going to mass, reading the bible, praying before each meal, etc. I encourage you to make His Word a part of your everyday actions and choices you make. And then you might start to wonder, “Why do I feel a bit disconnected from you God? Especially when I am doing all of this stuff?” Now don’t get me wrong, doing all of those things is encouraged! Please keep doing them! They help a lot! I am just trying to encourage you to do a little bit more. You can go to mass every Sunday or even every day, you can read the bible every night, pray before every meal, but if you don’t live to be in His image, all of those things are just turning into a routine and it becomes a cycle.
LET IT SHINE ME AND YOU FREE
And it’s hard because we are human and we have free will.

They’re so many distractions and temptations in this world that it makes being like Jesus hard. We are all called to be more like Jesus but I will be the first to admit, it’s easier said than done. I am YOUR HANDS, help me do the things you want me to do on this earth.” There was one part of the mass where I just looked up at Jesus on the cross, and in my head I prayed, “God, let me be your servant. Every word the priest said, I listened, and I mean I LISTENED.
LET IT SHINE ME AND YOU FULL
I’m talking about a feeling where I was just full of God’s grace and I just took in everything that mass had to offer. Almost as if I was about to experience something new that God was about to offer to me. As mass began, I had a weird yet calm feeling. Two weeks ago, I attended a Sunday mass that really impacted me.
