I received and interesting grace from God today in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. First my sins where forgiven, Praise the Lord, Hallelujah! Second I was able to come to the realization that when you server your family you not only are serving them you are serving Christ in them.
I think most people tend to look at their family differently than they do completely strangers, or is it just me. Somehow I can give my time to serve others in charity but then resent giving my time to help those in my own family with their needs. I’ve realized that when it comes to serving others I’ve made myself ready willing and able whenever possible but when it comes to serving my own family I have been selfish with my time. I need to see that when I serve them I am indeed serving Christ.
Now I pray for a third grace, I pray for the grace to charitably and joyfully do what I’ve come to understand. Pray for me to receive this grace, and I will pray for it for you as well.
