Start Wanting what he wants.

This week I've been doing a lot of thinking. I've been thinking about the future and dwelling in the past. The school is almost over for this school year that makes me excited! but it also means I have to start planning. I like to plan things, but I don't like to think about my future because of it so unsure.
"What do I want to do with my life?" That's the question most people ask, that's is the question I've asked. I know the answer. I want to become a Catholic priest! There is NOTHING in the world that I want more than that. But in doing a lot of thinking... I asked what do I want. "I" That is not the question I/We should be asking. This can be a hard question to ask, But "What does he want?" by he I mean God, that is what we should be asking. In asking this, I have come to realize that God may not want me to become a Catholic Priest. Now like I said there nothing else I'd rather do. It has been a hard thing to realize. But in realizing that I also have figured out that want I really want is to want what God wants me to do. I'm not there yet, I still very much want what I want.  So Before you make your plans ask. "What do you want, but also what does he want". "True Happiness come in fulfilling the Lords Plane for your life."Remember as hard as it gets in this life, This life is not forever! It's going to end! When it's done will you be able to tell God that you did what he wanted, or what you wanted?.

Set the world on fire

“Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.” - Catherine of Siena Catherine of Siena was the 23rd child of Jacopo and Lapa Benincasa and grew up as an intelligent, cheerful, and intensely religious person. St. Catherine was truly who God was calling her to be despite what her parents wanted her to be. Her parents wanted her to get married, but she protested by cutting her hair so guys would not find her as attractive.  Recently, I was talking to a good friend of mine. He told me that he was excited and happy with where he was right now because he realized something. He said, “I am finally really focusing on who God wants me to be, and not who I or who others want me to be.”  I had been thinking about this since last semester because something that I have always done was compare myself to others. I used to pray that God would give me a certain person’s faith or that he would help me become more like them. This is really a bad thing, especially when it

Greatness

“The world promises you comfort, but you were not made for comfort. You were made for greatness. ” — Pope Benedict XVI Greatness. What is it? Before I can talk about this I think we need to look at the word. “ Greatness is a concept of a state of superiority affecting a person or object. Greatness can also be referred to individuals who possess a natural ability to be better than all others.” This is one of the definitions you can find online. There are so many things I think are truly great in this world. Music! Some music is clearly superior to other music. Places—I think Assisi Italy is the greatest place on earth! These are Great things.  How many truly great people do you know? People with  “ The natural ability to be better than others.”   I know a few. I think we all have greatness in us. We all have the ability to become great, but for some, it comes easier than others. Everyone is great at something whether that be playing video games, school, your job, or anythin

We Only Have Today

Stop dwelling in the past! Recently I was talking to a friend and we were thinking about the past and decisions we made (or didn't make), about the way we treated some people, and the things we may have missed out on because of it. This conversation reminded me of a quote from that same friend. “Find a goal or something that inspires you! (Heaven is that goal) And strive towards it with your whole being. When you find that something you will want to run through a wall, and not only will you not break stride, but you will accelerate on and beg for the next barrier to stand in your way so you can strive past that one and accelerate further to the next, and continue on like this until you reach the peak! When you reach that peak you can look down at the rubble of all the obstacles you broke through to get where you are, and You will thank them for their attempt to stop you. You will then look to the horizon and realize that you're not finished yet! GOD will place another mou
