Prompt: Describe a memory or encounter in which you considered your faith, religious spirituality or lack of for the first time? When my husband and I had our house fire, I felt God had let me down. I was thankful he saved my husband, me and my cat but I felt like my life was over. I prayed to God and went to church but my prayers were short and at first I felt resentment towards God but it passed. When others were helping my husband and I and the insurance company paid everything, I know God was there and I was content with God again. He and Jesus still loved me and I still loved them. My new house after the fire was nicer then the last one. With all the world problems, I asked God why but I know he has a back up plan and I am sure someday we will all understand his plan and purpose. When my cat Tigger died, I was disappointed. I has asked God to let me have her another year but he didn't. I found out she was sick at the end of July and she died October 3, 2010. At least she survived the fire, I got ten extra years with her. She was seventeen when she died. Eight months later after she had died, I got a new kitty, Bella. She is onry but God wants me to have her. No one would put up with her and her antics but I love her and she is special to me. I am not Catholic but I went to a small private Catholic College and being around Nuns and seeing the statues of Jesus makes me feel closer to Jesus and God. I hope I never feel resentment towards God ever again. It is not a good feeling. I just wish I would feel closer to God{can we ever feel close enough?} and I will pray, go to church and keep believing. ** Image ID #1901871 Unavailable ** |
