For 7 years, this has been a dream for me - to be an owner of the book, "Come be my light", which talks about Blessed Mother Theresa's 40 years spiritual darkness. And for the past 7 years, the closest I came to, was to only dream about having this book. This was because, everytime I had the finances to purchase this, I'd forget to but the book. And everytime, my heart longed for this beautiful book, it would be a moment where there was too much stuff that my finances to had to proceed to. But as I reflect deeper into this, I realise that it wasn't about the price of the book. But rather it was the longing of my heart & soul that just laid as a secret and to a very large extent, God only knew about this longing. Its something that wasn't even aware to me.
But this realisation was made so aware when I received this absolutely PRICELESS gift from an angel whom I'd say knows my heart the most. And in a very worldly sense, it may seem like a very normal & simple gift. But this becomes a moment where my heart just bursts out into rejoicing being so blessed & humbled to receive this gift. Its a feeling that I, myself find so difficult to express in words. But its such a heavenly feeling!
Well it all started after 9am mass when this angel passed me my birthday present which I was totally taken aback by, because this angel had already given me a birthday present. But this was only the start of how beautiful this sunday morning would turn out to be! And thank God that this angel told me to open the present before session started. And as I read this angel's birthday card to me, my heart was filled with very humbling love resting within me! And as I read it even more, I felt so humbled & in awe of what this angel thought of me! But then I headed to the lift area at the 2nd floor of the parish centre, where I was alone.
And as I opened the present, I couldn't believe what was in my hands. It was a book that I could only dream about and the closest I came, was to actually hold the book at read what was on the covers! It really meant the world for me to hold this beautiful book in my hands! And it really was a moment where my heart felt so touched & in awe of God and this angel! And it really just means so much to me! And I'd say that this gift is the greatest & best gift I've ever received in my 22 years of life! And i mean it from the very depths of my heart! Its a gift that speaks so much of my heart and soul!
And its really makes my heart get to a great level of excitement when I read it. You can surely expect some post on this book I've started reading today!
Praise be unto God who knows me so well. I pray that this angel will receive the Love of God and also be so aware of how proud Jesus is of this angel! I pray that God grants you the desires of your heart and that he will lead you to perfect peace as you search to discover and do his will for you in your life!
