Would vote for you to be our leader however we have one, Pope Francis. I suspect he often feels the same.

Each writer has dealt with struggles,doubts and fear.Each one speaks to me as an imperfect human being that is trying to live out the gospel teachings and often falls short.
We’re all in this together Analise and we can all support one another with prayers and intercession.You’re an inspiration to so many.God Bless you.🙏🏻

I should add that I look forward to Fr Eke’s Monday reflection and learn so much from him.

I see by reading your reflection I have a kindred sister somewhere else. 😊. Thank you for sharing. I’ll add your name to my daily rosary. 😊🙏🏼 God Bless

We have to give our lives over to the Lord on a DAILY basis. I love how Fred includes God in everything “wee, I just made a mess”. One thing I have learned is when I let go of my pride and allow/ ask God to work through me (which I definitely need to do way more of) He can and will change things. The first time (as an adult anyway) that I asked Jesus to truly be in my life I noticed that road rage had left me. That’s not to say that I still don’t have moments of aggravation or anger, but when I do, it’s because I’m not clinging to Jesus. He will give you the gift and the means to overcome the sin…. and we’ll never perfect it but can always grown in it. Keep growing!

I think this struggle is part of the Christian life.. I know I struggle with the same things you listed. I learned somewhere to keep our eyes on the lives on the saints. They themselves would tell us they felt the same way you described…and they did so much for God! They still felt like they had not done enough for Him because they loved God so much. May God bless you my sister! And all of us at ACM.

God Bless
