Where You Lead

The Unknown

Not to forget the lessons of the past week, I’ve kept up with my prayers. Of course, I’ve been in dire need of God’s blessings. I suppose the question is, Will I continue praying faithfully if He answers my prayer? Oh, I do hope I will.

For now, I’m trying to find the strength and the faith to say, “Not my will but Thy will be done.” I talked with my son today about the faith to do that, the acceptance of what is and the belief that God will tend to us in His own time.

And yet, I fear. It’s the unknown that totally wipes me out. If God would send me a sign indicating exactly when my prayer will be answered, highlighting a path that I must take to get to His answer, I could handle the waiting. Yes, I realize that I’m talking in circles. It’s the unknown – and acceptance of it – that brings grace to my life. It’s remaining at peace and trusting His love in spite of not knowing that is the true testament of my faith.

I’ve been praying the Rosary every day. When you pray, please remember me and my family in your prayers.
