I spoke with Sr. Mary John today. I'm encouraged that this will be the right path for me. Balance was a recurring theme in our conversation. Since I struggle with keeping my balance every day, this is something that I look forward to working on with her. We will have a retreat July 19 - 21. It will be nice to see the convent again.
The main emphasis of the oblate prayer life is the Church's Liturgy of the Hours. It will feel odd to pray that again. It will be worth it if I can deepen my relationship with God. I write that as though I dislike the Liturgy, but I was always comfortable with it.What I meant was praying the Liturgy in preference to the Rosary. I'll bet that it isn't an either/or situation.
