A Choice
I am supposed to be in this monastery for the summer getting holy. Maureen said it would never happen. I think she is right. Instead of getting holy, I seem to keep writing these "Growing Up With Maureen" stories. Now blog readers, which do you want? Stories or my holiness? My big sister said that if I did not get holy, I would burn. You don't want me to burn do you? Is it possible to get holy while writing these stories? Could Maureen stories and holiness be in the same direction? This is not possible. Pray more and write less? What do the blog readers say?

Every Maureen story possible. I feel like you are safe.
ReplyDeleteA while ago we decided to take our family (kids & g grandkids) to see Joseph and the amazing Technicolor dreamcoat. I decided it would be more meaningful if they knew the story, so I sent the whole story in a series of emails (short so the would read them). I received no replies or comments & decided no one was reading them & stopped before the end. As we were in line at the door I was chastised by pretty much everybody for stopping.
ReplyDeleteI start my prayer time each day with your blog.

One definition of Holy: exalted or worthy of complete devotion as one perfect in goodness and righteousness. Something which to aspire but doubtful to achieve. Just do your best and let the Lord to the rest.
