					<description><![CDATA[Thank you for the reflection Analise.  You made some very good points today and (once again) have highlighted our &quot;fallen humanity&quot;.  I often go down the same path you are traveling. Have you ever read the Merton Prayer?  In it, his doubts are put into words. But, he flips his uncertainty by saying &quot;but I believe that the desire to please You does in fact please you.&quot;  God knows we&#039;re not perfect.  Thus, God&#039;s mercy.
Peace ✌️]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Analise, I simply love ALL your reflections because they ooze integrity, immanence and humility. You capture well the struggles to maintain an active faith in the midst of inner and outer turmoil. So today’s gem was an innate hatred of those who have harmed us. My mother just died and she had chosen me to do all her funeral planning and thus evoked warped and twisted jealousy in some of my siblings who attempted to harm me in direct and indirect ways. The funeral has been done but I have lingering feelings of hatred and disgust that I am praying fervently about]]></description>
