Yesterday and today I set up my prayer table... it was my desk with the tele on it and junk, but I moved that onto my new TV cabinet. I have a picture that folds open of Mary on one side, Jesus on the other. Statues of the Seven Archangels, NJB Bible, Catechism, crucifix and small picture of the Icon of Our Lady. On the wall above I have my Columban calendar, a few posters of Pope Ben, a Holy Spirit wooden wall hang thingo I received for my First Communion and Confirmation. There's the famous picture of Jesus by Leo Da Vinci, a cross, and three sets of rosary beads - special wooden WYD08 ones, very large, chunky, monk-style black ones, and a nice, smaller, fashionable type, which is also black.
Now I have this and I am sorting through my stuff, I can turn toward God... get off my track of thought "God Loves You!" and more God-fearing... Sure, God loves us, but when it goes to your head (like me) it's not healthy. I see things at the moment as I do what I want and if God doesn't like it, I'll have a beef with him when I get up there! But I want to change to actually go to Mass once again, go to reconciliation, see my priest, start going to the young adults group again.
I think the best thing for my mental and social life I need a change of scene... but where? And how?
