Heal my heart and make it clean,
Today, I had not one, but two lines stick out to me. And neither of them made much sense on their own, until I put them together. The above line always reminds me of going to confession. But I just went on Thursday, and I’ve really been pretty good since, so I didn’t really feel that God was calling me to go to confession again. Then I heard this line...
Everything I am for Your Kingdom's cause,
And it reminded me of my penance - meditating on the vine and the branches. It reminded me of my resolution that I made to become more aware of that connection and to try and keep it strong so that God would be made known through my ministry, not me. And I realized, my intention of praying throughout my work day - asking God if this was what He wanted, if this is how He thought things should go - that hasn’t really happened. I’ve so easily gone back to my ways of working on it all by myself, then coming home and talking to God, telling Him how I want things. And today, being the 3rd day I have blogged on this topic, I hope by now it will finally get into my brain. Dear Jesus, help me tomorrow to constantly keep You in my plans.
