Well yes this has been my latest desire which came from God, "Prayer". In the past, I kinda disliked prayer so much because it was so quiet and so boring especially when I had to pray the rosary. But over recent weeks, I had the chance to come to know God much better, Prayer has been more of a chance to be in the presence of God and especially receiving grace & humility.
As I've been immersing myself as much as possible in prayer, I really have been able to received alot of strength to get through my days much better. And prayer has particularly been really helpful at times where I have been made fun of. In these times, I've been able to be more receptive to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit has really been guiding me so much especially in times when I feel like returning negetive comments at the people who make fun of me or those who keep irritating me. But what the Holy Spirit has done has really been amazing, where he has guided me to love them instead of hating them.
Now through the guidance of the Holy Spirit and praying the rosary, I have been able to not only to love the ones who keep disturbing me but also to very importantly pray for their well-being & safety. Its been quite weird I must say that, when I lift them up during my prayers but I affirmed at how praying for them makes me love them more and as well as learn to accept them for who they are. But though accepting them for who they are, God has guided me not to conform to their ways but to actually accept them and ensure to continuously live a life of holiness.
Although this will continue to remain to be a struggle, I am feeling much better these days and trying to get back to a Joyful Mark whom i miss dearly. But I praise God for giving me the desire for prayer as I seek him more and more each day! May you be able to experience the true grace and humility of Prayer!
