My account of how I became a postulant and what happened after I left. #carmelites #monastic #prayer #religiouslife #nuns #rscm #carmelitespirituality #church #churchmusic #bohemianrhapsody
I listen to your witness and i am taken back to the moment when I knew that for me, it was Carmel or nothing. There is no way of describing that lightning bolt moment, except to say that the soul knows. Thank you for sharing your story with us. The world needs witnesses to this call, to this vocation. God bless you!
Thank you. Ithink you have explained this beautifully, but God’s inner workings on us I think are almost impossible to describe! However, others who have heard His call will understand perfectly. You are right that words cannot “measure up” to it. Your attempt is your truest video I think. Thank you….it is brave of you. In Jesus,+
Caroline, you can do it, that image you had in the video of the cross, reminds me of a dream or vision i had many years ago, i walking down an old English country road with gas lamps or oil lamps, and as i walked in the peaceful still of the night, i reached a crossroad, and saw a signpost, but it had no writing or words on it to say what road to take, i thought it so strange, as i looked around, i saw an old building what looked like an old barn or very old country church, and next to it was a field, i saw a cross, so i walk towards the field, and climbed the fence and went over to the fence, as got closer to the cross, i saw a figure on the cross, it was Jesus on the cross, my heart sank, i looked around to see if i could find something to climb up to the cross, and found an old ladder type it was very old, so placed it on the cross and stepped up to be closer to Jesus, tear flowed from my eyes, He still had the crown of thorns on His head, and the blood look very fresh, took the thorns from His head, and placed them on the ground, then went back up and reached over to His hand, and with all my might taken the nail from that hand, then reached over to the other hand, and pulled with all my might and strength on that other nail, then He rested on my shoulder, as i reached gently down at His feet, i strained at the nail on His feet and i pulled with what strength i had left to pull it out, i gently stepped down the old ladder and placed Jesus on the ground with His back resting on the cross base, and we both held each other so very close, i looked into His eyes and He looked at me, we cried together and He smiled at me, later He stood up and walked across the field, so i followed after Him, and it came to a gate, Jesus opened the gate and walked onto the road, i said to Jesus, there is a crossroad sign at the bottom of the road, but there is no writing on what road to take, and Jesus said "Are you lost" then He walked away and then turned His head towards me and said "Would you follow Me" i said "Yes" and we both walked together on this road, as we walked He began to fade away, the message was in that vision or dream, if we feel lost in this life, remember we can choose what road or path if we just reach out. God Bless.
Thanks for describing how your life changed it an amazing, inspiring way. I have found all your videos very interesting. You are doing such amazing work with spiritual and musical gifts.
