There is a mass scheduled every Monday at the chapel in our office building. While the priests officiating the Monday mass vary, it’s always the same people who attend it. I was able to attend the mass today. The Chinese priest who gave the sermon talked about faith and how people should never let it get out of our system.
He gave example of a friend who had been looking for a boyfriend for a long time. She continuously prayed for it while serving God as member of the Legion of Mary and doing volunteer work on the side. One day she met her soul mate in the US during a volunteer work she was participating in. They’re going to get married in May. Her deep faith in God led her to the man of his dreams. The power of faith is really amazing and immeasurable. It applies to so many things other than finding love.
Somehow, I can relate to the priest’s sermon on faith. It’s not because I’m a faithful servant of God (I don’t think I’m one) but because I’m trying to strengthen my Christian faith to lead a life of meaning and purpose. It’s also the reason why I don’t want to give up on my dreams. Sooner or later, these dreams will come true. My faith says so.
How has your faith changed your life?
