I heard tonight that when Vincent de Paul was in a very easy position (as a priest) his faith suffered. But when he volunteered for a very poor post and started to serve the poor his faith blossomed.
I would love to know what our non-Catholic bubbas and sissies report. I am confident that it is good, because all my trust is in God’s generosity. Still I would love to hear the blessings He has given to all of us when we responded to His Son’s call to serve the poor.
I’ll bet a dime that xzins has some miracles to report. God moves in the most unlikely ways, among the most unlikely people.
It may be an acquired taste, but I have come to love it when God says, “You are SUCH a DOPE, Mad Dawg! My ways are SO not your ways. Hold my beer and watch this!”
May I please die with His praise on my lips!
This is a tad elliptical -- maybe you want to clarify that you're not implying xzins is among "the most unlikely people," on account of he's definitely not, IMO! ;-)
