00:00:00,434 --> 00:00:03,391
Well, I have chosen
2
00:00:03,391 --> 00:00:08,255
to make these three vows voluntarily,
3
00:00:08,255 --> 00:00:10,466
because I know myself,
4
00:00:10,466 --> 00:00:15,392
before I had any inclining of God's call or whatever
5
00:00:15,392 --> 00:00:19,224
I've been running away from God all the time
6
00:00:19,224 --> 00:00:23,215
even though He had try again and again
7
00:00:23,215 --> 00:00:26,071
to bring me back to Him.
8
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:28,842
So I found out that
9
00:00:28,842 --> 00:00:31,893
even though I'm drawn by the
10
00:00:31,893 --> 00:00:38,000
beauty of prayer life and closer relationship with God,
11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,319
human witness is such that is not easy to
12
00:00:43,319 --> 00:00:45,889
conquer the greatest enemy itself.
13
00:00:46,418 --> 00:00:50,871
So I welcome and I'm glad
14
00:00:50,871 --> 00:00:56,234
to put myself in the situation where
15
00:00:56,234 --> 00:01:01,565
God would find me there if I give myself totally to Him.
16
00:01:02,086 --> 00:01:03,743
It's through His grace.
17
00:01:04,271 --> 00:01:06,877
At that time when I had decided to
18
00:01:06,877 --> 00:01:09,077
enter the convent and make the vows
19
00:01:09,077 --> 00:01:11,521
that time I had already been
20
00:01:11,521 --> 00:01:17,534
in the Legion of Mary for a long time
and some of my fellow legionaries said,
21
00:01:17,534 --> 00:01:20,250
oh they would also have some
22
00:01:20,250 --> 00:01:22,720
liking for the religious life,
23
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,480
but they said, it's to difficult, well they asked me, but I said,
24
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,920
it's not by my own
25
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,354
power or initiative,
26
00:01:33,354 --> 00:01:37,645
I have to rely on God and then I don't need to worry about the rest.
27
00:01:38,213 --> 00:01:41,162
So it's just like
28
00:01:41,162 --> 00:01:44,519
jumping into the unknown,
29
00:01:44,519 --> 00:01:48,461
but the unknown in a way I know,
30
00:01:48,461 --> 00:01:52,068
because the God who called me is always faithful.
