Greetings my dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
I am excited to share how my life has been changing and how I have been tasting victory in Christ Jesus. I thought that if I associated myself with victory, then it leads to a life of richness and hence not to living a life of carrying my cross, as called by Catholic virtues. But in fact I have just started realizing how much the Father would like us to be victorious in everything we do and at the same time carry our cross for His mission.
Previously, though I knew the power of God and prayer, I thought praying before any activity was like showing off and thought that Bible asked us not to act pious which would lead to pride, instead of being humble. Just now I realized that was another lie I succumbed to. So, of recent times, I have started praying before activities.
During meetings at office I pray and not just for me but for all who are present there. I pray that the Spirits power and wisdom pours upon us so that we discuss for the benefit of all. And of late, there is great victory at these office meetings and the good Father gives me great victory in every conversion I am engaged.
Yesterday however, I experienced great victory. I wanted to accomplish a challenging coding task. I started work, and though I had some idea of how to do it no code was flowing out as expected. I stopped and began to pray. At my desk I closed my ideas and started asking for the Holy Spirits guidance. And I could suddenly feel great heat in my body. I was excited and did not know how long I had to pray :), however in a minute after experiencing the sweetness of our Father in the mighty Holy Spirit, I went back to work. And things started working perfectly. In a couple of hours my entire idea was fully accomplished. The last line of code was finished just seconds before 6pm, just before I left work.
I left work rejoicing & thanking our Sweetest Jesus for being besides me and guiding me.
How wonderful to be Catholic for we are victorious in all. For IN Jesus was all creation made and FOR Jesus were all creations made for eternity. And How wonderful to be called Brother or Sister of this Mighty Son of God, Our Savior Jesus.
