“I bring my troubles to God”

Pat McDowell

When things in my life are going great, I relax in the knowledge that the Trinity is guiding me. When things are not going great in my life, I bring my troubles to God in Eucharistic adoration and listen. 

I have experienced a deeper desire to learn more about my religion and pass it on to others. I consider it a gift that I can leave my home and go to Mass and Communion daily and be with Jesus. 

When I focus on the Eucharist I feel a connection with Jesus and feel His presence. It’s a human experience and in times of trouble or hardship, I can focus on a passage in my journal or Bible or inspirational book or thought of a past event that I know was Jesus guiding me.
