"Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord."
This verse really got me. I admit that lately, I have been lacking in zeal. Its almost a year ago already since I last conducted our Legion of Mary in our chapel.
Lately, I have been kinda.. I can't really explain but my zeal is just not that strong as it was before. I pray, yes. But I think that my actions are too weak to be called a faithful servant. :(
There was even a time when I wasn't able to attend the mass for a reason that I can't even remember. I guess I lack fellowship. I haven't even attended my our group's Bible study yet for the whole term. Good thing that there's an alumni BS where I can still attend every other Saturdays, I attended only two, btw.
I realized that the lack of fellowship is possibly the reason why my zeal got weak. :| I need to be around people who will make my drive and passion for serving become like a flaming fire again.
As of now, I am trying to find ways that will make my faith stronger and my zeal burning.
I miss the kids. :( I've met three new Brothers from Ateneo. They told me that they are willing to help me teach the kids and assist me in our legion. I'm really willing to grab this opportunity because in my heart I actually knew that I really want to do this, I miss being with and teaching the kids. Its as if my Sundays are incomplete when we don't do legion.
For me, legion is like making sacrifices and offering to God and Mama Mary my time, effort and passion. Not only that I get to pray the rosary even once every week but I also get to teach the kids how to pray and we bond together. I am also finding ways on how to make our gatherings become more exciting for them. To make it more fun, interesting and make them get to know Christ even more.
