EXACTLY just like marriage-----EVERY day is not a bed of roses or completely being "googly eyed all in love with your spouse". Doesn't mean if it isn't perfect today that I need to leave marriage. It's about the long haul. It's a marathon not a sprint. There are days when it is ALL work and not much joy. But then there are days when it is much more joy then work. Time tells.

Friend, my favorite definition of the word "JOY" was one I got from a parish priest. It was "the conscious possession of a gift". When I use that as my definition, I can see how something difficult, or even painful, can still have joy. Faith is a Gift, Life is a gift, Love is a gift... (etc) so in the midst of a trial if i focus on gratitude for the things I already possess, it takes the edge off of the inadequacies that I have.

If my life has taught me one thing it's this, you can always choose another path if the one you are on isn't giving you fulfilment, but if you expect to be fulfilled simply by changing paths you will almost always be disappointed. My point is this, changing your situation, position, or trade really isn't that difficult. I'm a bit of gypsy so I know that. But no matter where you go you take yourself with you and unless and until you change your heart and give it over to God your soul will always be hungry and nothing you feed it will bring you any level of satisfaction. It took me longer than it should have to learn that simple lesson because I was letting the wrong things determine my success. Trust in God and avoid a life of fear and you will be okay.

I have those thoughts often. When my classes don't go well certain days, or relationships don't go well at times, I often think "welp, time for me to start thinking about becoming a priest or a friar". Like I just took a test recently and did poorly and I thought "welp this must be a sign to become a priest". These "signs" often come with anger and frustration, so THAT gives me a clue that becoming a priest is probably not something to think about when I'm angry and frustrated, like how some heroes in the Old Testament were angry and frustrated and wished for death, and God says instead "I have a better idea"

When I was young, I made this same prayer over the men I dated. I would ask Jesus to quickly reveal to me if I needed to move on. I did this till I met my now husband. God blessed me with a devout Catholic man! In retrospect, I wish that I would have asked God to prepare me to receive my future spouse. I truly believe I would have met him sooner. So if you're not doing so already, ask God to make your heart, mind, and soul ready for your husband. God already knows who he is, now you need to prepare for the day you meet!

Unless someone is holding up a sign, it's most likely not a sign of anything but that's just how our minds work at times. The mind wants to make everything a pattern thus we are pattern seeking creatures.

This is very true about life as a missionary. There are predictable peaks and valleys, particularly in the first year. There are triumphant moments where you find yourself thinking, "Holy cow; I'm actually doing this!"; discouraging moments where you wonder what ever made you think you COULD do this - and intimidating moments where you can feel almost paralyzed by the overwhelming strangeness of your new country. And you have to be willing to be extremely flexible toward the unexpected (like power that is on only half the time or discovering your local grocery store is always closed on Wednesdays - when that's the only day you had to shop) - while staying committed to the and the work you discerned. It is a joyful, painful, stretching, blessing, exhausting, overwhelming, beautiful - and, at times, ugly - process. And it's the best thing I've ever done!

At times I feel in the morning like I shouldn’t be here and I would love to go back, but I’m giving myself another few months here until I decide to stay or go back. I’m a soccer player in Europe so it’s hard moving teams and leaving people you love, but I know God is always with me.

Brilliant! Not letting our emotions rule over us but rather fall back into the arms of the Lord.

Your message is so relevant to marriages today. If you knew it was the right course in good times, when you get to bad ones, stick with your spouse.

Thank you father. I was just thinking this last night. On your video about reading the Bible and you explained how we play Russian roulette with it and take it as a sign that our father God has that message for us on that particular moment. I read in the beginning pages of the bible where it says that our father God never committed himself to communicate with us through the “russian roulette” method that we used in the beginning. When i returned to my faith Catholicism i took many things as a sign from God that probably wernt signs. But it’s time to change that. Thank you father for touching on this subject and giving us clarity.

Thank you Father, that was such a relevant message...that really describes our entire faith journey, to remember the times of consolation when it seems your faith or purpose does not seem as clear cut or dull. Stay the course, consolation will come back. God is good all the time and all the time God is good. (that last sentence was a saying one of my favorite priest would say every time at Mass.)

Never change your course in desolation when you knew that this was your course in times of consolation. That really spoke to me. Stay your course in times of desolation... wow.
