Faith is a funny thing. There are times in our lives that we feel that we are fully aware of our faith and then times when we wish we had a lot more of it. Over my last semester I went through this struggle for faith over and over again.
Starting over at this point in my life has been very humbling. I have begun a fresh start and that means starting again from the bottom. This has been something I have wrestled with over and over again. I am quite sure that this struggle will remain constant throughout my seminary experience. However, it is faith that has gotten me this far and I know it is only through faith that I will be able to rebuild my new life as a priest. God has a plan for us all and faith is the anchor which keeps us grounded.
The semester has just begun and already I am overwhelmed with the amount of work that is being thrust upon us. It is like seeing a huge storm heading for your city and you know that you will be in thick of the storm in a few hours. So you batten down the hatches and just try and hang on. For me it is best to just take it day by day. Faith is what will carry me through these trying times and strengthen me when I am in need. -B
