Spiritual, Religious Notes When I Was With the Third Order Camelites Of The Holy Catholic Church

2000-2003 Notes Of When I Was Studying With Third Order Carmelites

Indwelling is spiritual marriage of God’s love for our souls

And souls are supposed to be transformed into the likeness ofo God possessing.

It is the same qualities as God, a closer relationship with God in love.

He expects our cooperation. He asks for small deeds done with great love.

We are supposed to possess enough humility to realize the power of God

At work within us.

Carmel is solitude. That we are to face our inner stirrings and God will

Espouse us to Him. We are to leave non-essentials behind and experience

Silence and solitude so that we can know God. The Holy Spirit of the desert

Is of interior silence and solitude. Carmel bears witness without compromise

To the transcendence of God. It is prophetic.

Carmel represents super-eminence of the life of intimacy with God.

The main characteristic of Teresian Carmelite prayer stresses interior

Communion; intimate friendship with God. We will not judge and will accept

With childlike simplicity. We will more readily enjoy simple things and wonder of beauty

With God’s creation. The world reflects its Creator.

Maybe you need to look at the fact, you will be more disciplined

When you get over spending all that time with your friends.

God becomes one with our lowliness, transferring us into Himself

And He causes union of the Creator with the creature. And we surrender our will

To His Will and God is able to use us as His instruments. I am a daughter of the church.

Our prayer life, our knowledge Of God is our growing in the pascal mystery.

The gospel of John tells us about the nature and life of the church and how

The church took birth in the pascal mystery.

The spirit is to be everything to us, the disciples after

The ascension that Christ was to them before. Assistance to us

Is when the Holy Spirit is of contemplative prayer and causes unity

Of relationships. The Holy Spirit is the subsistent relationship of the Father

And Son. He is the bond uniting us to Christ and one another.

Prayers, fasts and mortifications for advocating and causing the church

To grow and particularly for the sanctification of priests and theologians

And captians of the church.

God requires works. He requires a combination of work and prayers. Active

And contemplative lives. Saint Teresa of Avila proposed that we should have faith

In the authority of the church. For care and healing wounds of our family and the church.. Respecting our proper places in the church. Respecting authority like the Pope,

Our bishops and the priests.

You can back up what you do rather more importantly

Than what you say. Actions speak louder than words.

You can be disciplined enough to show others by action of prayers.
