When we know, who walks beside us, on this path we have chosen, our fears fall from us.

THE CONSECRATED LIFE
If we have turned our will and life over to the care of God, then we have chosen the consecrated life. Our only job is to see the Presence of God everywhere, in everything and everyone and to express our understanding of spiritual principles to the best of your ability, however limited that may be at this time, and to practice those principles in every aspect of our life. Simple but not easy, a price has to be paid and that price is the surrender of self. It is a simple equation, the more time we spend thinking about ourselves, the less comfortable we become, opening the door to restlessness, irritability and discontentment. Conversely, the more time we spend focusing on the Presence of God, practicing the principles we know to be true, leaving the results to God, the more comfortable, at peace, we become, living the consecrated life. Simple, but not easy.
