Becoming What We Receive

I will admit it, I'm not perfect. I'm a struggling sinner trying to be a Saint. I'm also a cradle Catholic with a big heart. And recently that heart has gotten in the way.
I've been in a rather trying relationship with someone who has inspired and affected my faith. I feel that part of faith is honesty. And that is the last thing I've been. I've hid my feelings. I've not said so many things. I've been hurt, and have not said anything. I've felt unloved and different. Yet, I care. Yet, I ask God for His grace. Yet I have a big heart and want to love despite being so hurt.
Yesterday I sat at Adoration staring at Jesus. I felt His love and His mercy despite being a sinner. I also know and have faith that He is giving me what I need to be truthful and honest. He will be with me when I need to do what is right. It was Jesus who said that He is the truth. He wants us to know the truth, to speak the truth, and spread that truth. I know being so dishonest was wrong, and now I know the power of the truth, and the power of doing what is right.
