If you want nothing from me, but me (INDIA 2018)

<<< 09/30/2018 This year has been a year of changes, disappointments, new beginnings, and without a doubt, a year in which I have drawn closer to God. The fact that Hakuna was born in the city where I study, certain conversations, and without a doubt, God's providence, made it possible for me to participate in this volunteer work, and I couldn't be more grateful for it. At first, I went to India with a clear goal: to find an answer to something that had been on my mind for months: "What does God want from me?" The first masses and the first Holy Hours arrived, I kept asking: "God, what do you want from me?", "Jesus help me to know what you want," "How do I know what you are asking of me?" I asked and asked, and more than wanting an answer, I demanded an answer. In my rigid mind, there was no room for the idea that my heart could feel more than my mind could handle. After all, I didn't realize that HE is the only one who can guide my life, and that I don't need to understand the situations that happen in my life, that HE doesn't put things in my path for me to understand them, but for me to live through the stages. And how important it is to know how to live each stage of our life. And it was there, in the middle of the talk by the nun from Madrid, in her constant struggle with God, when I realized: "If you want nothing from me, but me." HE wants me, He wants me completely, my whole being, because nothing is mine, I am entirely His. I understood that I didn't need to give God a concrete answer, that it was enough to give Him my whole being, that it was enough to lose the fear of surrendering, that it was enough to let HIM take the reins of my life. "I want to do your will, Lord, I want to please you, I want to always give you the first place" To this day, I still don't know exactly what God is asking of me, but I have discovered that when you trust God blindly and leave everything in His hands, you are enveloped by a feeling of peace and total security. >>>
