Is it just me or are these weeks flying by?! I was reading our book in the Adoration chapel yesterday afternoon and it brought me to tears yet again. Such a beautiful, inspiring story that makes the saints come alive and the reality of their friendship so powerful. I'm so sad we only have one more chapter! Here are the reflection questions for this week's chapter:
Chapter 5: Into the Darkness
Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta wrote about the overwhelming darkness she experienced, even though her entire life was dedicated to God. Despite her depression, though, she never faltered in her good work. Is this frightening or reassuring? Why? When speaking of her infertility and waiting to know whether she would ever be a mother, Colleen’s mother told her that the waiting itself was her cross to bear. What crosses have you had to bear? Which are you currently bearing? How is God seeing you through? When has God made you wait for something you really wanted? How did the waiting stretch your faith?
Catching up or looking back? Here are the rest of the weeks' links:
