Now, today has been an interesting day. During Mass I was sitting looking across at the Dominican brother on the other side of the church and I suddenly realized that I really wanted to be a sister. As I realized this I started crying and I’m not sure why. I wasn’t sad, shocked or even they type of joyous happiness that would bring one to tears. I’d say the feeling would have to be described as giddy, but in the good sort of way; I felt like laughing!
When the brother came up to the pulpit to beg for money he described the Dominican life and listed several parts; unfortunately I do not think I remember them all. Those I do remember are prayer, community, study, and teaching against heresies. Everything he said seemed to click, I realized more and more that I want to become a Dominican sister. I think I practically danced out of Mass. :dancing:
So I’ve been called…I never expected it to be like this. How odd I should be called first slowly, then so suddenly it takes my breath away! It’s exciting! Now I only need to…hmmm…Find a community, get accepted, sell everything and get rid of my college debt. But if the Lord wills this like I feel he does, then I’m sure He’ll find a way!
…This is just a short blurb from my blog, if anyone wants to read the rest of the (perhaps boring ) details it’s The Northern Cross
