I thought, \u2018Please God, not that. Anything but that! I just wouldn\u2019t know what to do!\u2019 And the immediate response in my mind was, \u2018Actually, it\u2019s precisely that you will have to face. One day.\u2019 I pushed that thought far back in my mind. Until now.<\/p>\n<p>I am told to go to St. Monica. And I do. I am told to have Faith. And Hope. And that it\u2019s not too late as long as my daughter is alive. And I do, and I know, and I agree. However, what I have come to realize is that God\u2019s timeline is not mine. It doesn\u2019t matter how many times someone says to me \u2013 and I have to say, usually a well-meaning soul who has young children \u2013 \u201cIt will be okay. She\u2019ll come back\u201d there is the very real possibility that I may never see it. None of us may. It may end up being just between her and God and I may not even be in this life to see it. God didn\u2019t give me that guarantee, to witness her return to her faith, to her family, to her very self. No. I realize more and more that he is asking me to be faithful. Simple. And difficult. Extremely difficult. Because no matter how many novenas I do or extra rosaries or votive masses, there\u2019s a touch of pride, even there! Of course I want my daughter to come back to her faith and be fulfilled by the only One who can truly fill her heart; but I want this wound to be gone! I want to not hurt any longer. And that\u2019s my pride. Ego is everywhere! Moreover, if I am to believe that God is all-loving, that he knows what is best for me and those that I love and have committed to him, that he will only do what is best for all of us, then aren\u2019t I supposed to accept this wound? Not only that, but aren\u2019t I supposed to will this wound?<\/p>\n<p>I am reminded that in this suffering, I am following in Our Lord\u2019s path. I am learning that I may carry this ache my entire life. There is no guarantee it will be healed before I die. God never said He would heal all our suffering in this life. He does ask us however to persevere. That\u2019s all. To keep marching. Fidelity. And if I believe that He is an all-loving God, then somehow, I must bend my will to desire what He desires. Not grudgingly so, but joyfully. I must be joyful to suffer in this way. For my daughter. For my other children. For my husband, and family, my mother and father, the Church. Whatever He wants. I just live out this faith. Not check boxes and expect a ribbon at the finish line. Christ didn\u2019t check boxes. I pray I can be Mary to others. To be compassion to my brothers and sisters in Christ when they walk the road of suffering.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus asked, \u2018Who do you say I am?\u2019 If we say He is the Son of the Living God, he simply responds:<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Then pick up your cross.
