I got up this morning and did my usual thing wasted time on the computer and from there later on took a shower, shave, brush my teeth and got ready to go to Confession and Holy Mass. I got to confession did my penance. I feel 100% better now, and because that I know I'm walking in a state of Grace so it was with a good conscience that I could go and receive the body, blood, soul and divinity of Christ in Holy Communion. And it has now become a practice almost a habit. I am receiving communion. Well kneeling with my mouth open and always receiving it on the tongue.
My last few times that mouse. It has seemed like that I'm just totally self-absorbed and I do not mean that in a negative way. I mean that in a purely positive spiritual way. I just isolate everything out except me and Christ. And that is just a wonderful feeling that I cannot describe in mere words. I wish and pray that everyone could feel as complete as I do when I'm in that state. After mass I spoke with a brother from the Brothers of St. Patrick and he has given me the same advice everybody else gives me pray but; he also offered another piece of advice when I told him that God called me 10 years ago and I kind of "brushed him off,"10 years ago, I did not listen to God's call. I wanted to but I was just not meant to listen and now I am listening very intently!
I've been listening to a lot of the venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen audio recordings and some of the YouTube videos and I'm finding them very inspirational. My favorite ones so far:
Are the retreat on priesthood series specifically meaning of being a priest and why God chose you.
And also on St. Teresa of Lisieux those are entitled our cartel holiness and the path to holiness.

Trying to get some inspiration for the presentation/proposal for the Apologetics study At Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church. Unsure on how I plan to do this but then again, I just have to let the Holy Spirit.
