Prayers

It's been quite some time since MooMoo diligently goes to mass every week and praying daily consistently.  Since MooMoo have decided to start a new journey of faith with God, she will need to work towards it.  Nothing will come with no effort at all, as it takes both sides to make things work.

Last Sunday morning, MooMoo actually made an effort to wake up for Sunday morning mass.  Hope this will be a consistent routine from now on.  MooMoo's cell group buddies actually buzzed her to remind her on the mass.  Well, she must work towards going on her own without having to be reminded.  But, sometimes it is always good that your buddies gives you a nudge or a push or two just to encourage you to go further, especially when the going gets tough.

MooMoo have bought herself some stuff while at the church bookshop, as she reached a bit earlier.  MooMoo bought a crucifix to stick at her bedside for prayers.
MooMoo have also bought herself a simple prayer book and a rosary prayer book.  The little rosary does not come with it.  Haha.
MooMoo wanted to buy the Daily Gospel prayer book for year 2013 but they do not have it.  Her friend actually gave her a copy from year 2009 for reference.  MooMoo will try to get it when she's back in KL churches.  Guess nowdays, MooMoo can also actually download all these prayer apps in her iPhone but she still like the feeling of reading the actual book instead of online.  Hahaha.
Payers does work wonder.  It could keep one peace at heart.  A prayer a day keeps the devil away?!?  Hahaha.  It is always good to consistently pray everyday but it does take a lot of commitment as well.  Well, if MooMoo can diligently go to gym almost everyday, there's no excuse or reason to say that she can't schedule some prayer time each day.  It is like God is your family member and you need to spare some time for him and not only spend time with him when you have spare time. 
The praying bears are so cute!  The one in white is a birthday gift from a friend while the one in pink, MooMoo just bought on Sunday, as it came with the little rosary in the hands.  Praying together is a great thing, where you can share with each other and keep each other on track.

May God bless MooMoo and help her persevere in her journey of faith with daily consistent prayers.



* Some prayer quotes that MooMoo like...

“Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.” ― Mahatma Gandhi


“Prayer is not asking. Prayer is putting oneself in the hands of God, at His disposition, and listening to His voice in the depth of our hearts.” ― Mother Teresa


“Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one” ― Bruce Lee
