In the past week, there's this nun whose been staying with my family. She's actually been very close to my family for many years. She and my mum are the best of friends. And in the weeks before she came, I've been doubting god and his works quite alot. Time and again god reveals to me that its him who is here. It was just the perfect timing that the nun was here cause the doubts were all cleared and I think it was god's way of instilling conviction in my faith as I continue to grow with god. But this wasn't the end of our wonderful god and his suprises.
The nun actually brought this up. You know how alot of us are actually think about what people would think of ourselves by the things we do or say or even the things we believe in. Well the nun said, "Why do alot of Catholics fear making the sign of the cross so visibilly before we eat? or "why do so many Catholics fear having more conversations abt god and their walk with god?" And so after all these questions, I started to think to myself that actually I'm also very concern about what others think of me. But over the past week, the main msg has been about standing up in faith. Standing up for what we believe in and most of our teachings are in the bible. Actually this morning, while walking to the bus-stop, I was talking to god and then I was so happy with god that I started in some sense continue to reaffirm myself that it is god who is here. I guess alot of it was about not just praise god but doing it with real conviction! I personally believe conviction is so important in our journey cause it sustains us especially when we're down. Ultimately, today is about Standing up in faith and also guarding it! Praise god!
