Belonging

Hey All!
So on Monday a FOP (Festival of Praise) came to Pittsburgh and so did Sr. Michelle (my vocation director)! There is nothing like spending an evening with close friends and our Lord in the Eucharist, singing and praising His name with hands raised high. Nothing ever reenergizes me like a good FOP! I always seem to come to a new understanding after praying in this way. One of the things I came away with this time was that, in Christ's presence is where I belong. I belong to Christ because He made it so, no matter where I am or who I am with. For Christ, "though he was rich, for your sake he became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich. Not that others should have relief while you are burdened, but that as a matter of equality your abundance at the present time should supply their needs, so that their abundance may also supply your needs, that there may be equality." We all belong ... in Christ.
Keep the Faith,
Betsy
P.S. I should update you all since I have not posted in some time. I am applying to the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth! Much to say about that and yet so little time. So you will have to wait for more later. Hopefully it will be sooner rather than later.
