Before Christ Our Lord

As I knelt there below the statue of the Virgin Mary, I prayed for peace. I had the whole chapel to myself; I loved the silence and serenity. I prayed for peace whether it be by the granting of my desire or the abolishment of it from both heart and mind.

I NEVER USED TO PRAY. I GREW UP KNOWING COMMANDMENTS AND SERVING THROUGH WORK, BUT NEVER DID I BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF PRAYER. I ALWAYS THOUGHT "SPIRITUALITY" WAS OVERRATED. YOU TRUST IN GOD BY DOING WHAT HE SAYS AND NOT DOING WHAT HE CONDEMNS. I'VE COME TO FIND OUT THAT THERE IS MORE TO THE PICTURE, THE BIG PICTURE. GOD IS MORE THAN A DIETY OF LAWS AND WORKS, BUT HE'S ALSO FATHERLY IN DESIRING COMMUNICATION BETWEEN HIM AND HIS CHILDREN.

As I struggled to pray my rosary, I had this vision in my head........ There I was kneeling down on one knee. Everything around me was white. There was nothing else present. My back was arched forward and my face was starring at the floor. I was small. I was basically crumpled over as if in a shell. I see then see myself pick up my head......I was smiling and my face looked joyful. I looked young............I stepped up and opened my arms wide as if to embrace someone. I then see Christ before me. It was HE that I was to embrace. He hugs me back. My vision ends........

As I said in my profile, there are no lies here. This is no exception. I wonder if this scene will come to fulfillment? I hope it does. In fact, the reason why it ended was because I began to tear up. I momentarily had to stop praying.

What has gone on since the end of January is beyond me!!!
