God truly has a sense of humor!

I was laughing to myself today about my acceptance of God's call to me to the Carmelites. Not that I do not want to do it, but I just spoke to God the way I usually do, God are sure you're talking to me? Are you sure you want me for this? Didn't you see what I did yesterday or how impatient I was today? So I truly believe He has a wonderful sense of Humor, why else would He choose the most incapable and incompetant people for certain duties, it's beyond me, but I know because I realize this, anything He wants me to do, He'll have to do it through me because I am not capable on my own! Agghh! The very thought of myself without Him frightens me!

Then I cam across this entry in the book put together with St. Pio's letters:

He (God) chooses some souls. From among these, despite all my faults, he has also chosen my soul to help him in the great project of saving humanity. The more these chosen souls suffer without any comfort,the more the sufferings of our good Jesus are lightened.
Well, that's the reason I wish to suffer unceasingly, and to suffer without comfort; and from this I derive all my joy. This I can testify through the long experienceI have had of it, provided the one does not cease to cry out to Him.(304)_ From "Words of Light".

Then I opened the bible to this passage:

"Do you not know or have you not heard? The Lord is the eternal God, creator of the ends of the earth.He does not faint nor grow weary, and his knowledge is beyond scrutiny.
He gives strength to the fainting;for the weak He makes vigor abound. Though young men faint and grow weary, and youths stagger and fall, They that hope in the Lord will renew their strength,
they will soar as with eagles' wings; they will run and not grow weary, walk and not grow faint." Isaiah 40:28-31


Wow! That's all I have to say for today, what else could possibly be said other than I get the message loud and clear!?

Have a Wonderful evening!
