To accept myself

In times when things are difficult, I had this temptation to 'not-like-the-way-God-created-me'. However, long long time ago, when every fall was always followed by tears and frustration *and crying in confessional was common - oh maaaan..poor father...*, Fr Mario told me this:

Tell Our Lord, 
"Lord, you created me this way. Please help me."

I think this is the most beautiful reminder in difficult times :)

This reminded me of what Sharmini told me about imagining our life without spiritual direction. It's really God who is talking to us through spiritual director! You will be surprised how big the impact of going for spiritual director (even though you feel fine without one now).

Well, accepting my weaknesses doesn't mean that I have excuses to stop struggling =P
