Hey, are you a good listener? This one is for you. So, praying is the first thing somebody decides when entering religious life. As you pray, you seek advice. Don’t keep it to yourself. I repeat, don’t keep it to yourself. Samuel, he had this call. He wasn’t sure, but he thought he was guessing. “Maybe it is Eli.” Eli told Samuel, saying, “Speak, Lord; your servant is listening.” And that’s when we pray, asking the Lord what you want of me. Are you calling me to this life? So, if you are guessing that the Lord is calling you, go to those who can direct you. And when you’re seeking advice, seek advice from those who know. And when they give you the advice, you follow it. Keep praying and asking for discernment, and things may be more straightforward. Follow the direction of the Holy Spirit. Now, start praying.

Well, the question we are treating today is, what do you value most? I value my Master, Lord, Spouse, Redeemer, and Creator more than everything else. What is it that He cannot do for you? He’s the alpha, He’s the omega, He knows…

Speaking Out Of Love
If I speak in the tongues of men, and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong, or a clashing symbol. This sounds old, ancient, but it is new. You have heard people who speak very nicely, some may say, oh, this person is speaking like an angel. But eventually, you notice that that person has grudges, that person has hatred…
