By His Grace Alone Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 [quote name='zunshynn' post='1888416' date='Jun 11 2009, 10:16 AM']Hi everyone... Just wanted to post a little update that I left OLAM on Tuesday... I am at peace... amazingly! Thank you, Jesus! But, of course, I still am very, very sad. It's bittersweet I guess. I'm heartbroken, but I really believe that was what He wanted, and so... yeah... whatever He wants. Thank you for all your prayers the past... almost 3 years. And please keep praying for me. I'm really overwhelmed right now... Just by the change, and anxiety, etc. Pax et Bonum![/quote] Yes, it is difficult to leave. I also left the Visitation Monastery in Tyringham two months ago. It was awhile before I could even speak of it and so hard to leave, but while I loved the life, I found that the community was not a good fit for me. May you find peace....everything really will be okay because God really, really does love us! I will also pray for you. God Bless!
DiscerningSoul Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 (edited) I tried Lockport a few times, until it was clear, that community was not where God wanted me. I am sure God will put you on the path that he wishes you to be on. You are in my prayers. Edited June 13, 2009 by DiscerningSoul

I thought you were kind and eloquent and so brave for responding to His call then, and I definitely think so now. I can't imagine how difficult it must be for you, but I know you are so wonderful for doing what He wants and He loves you no matter what. I will pray for you!
