Hi, Good Morning, I’m Sister Angelina. What part I treasure most. For me, it’s something, the whole person. So God is always in the present time, is that right? So the part I most treasure, is being a religious, always in the present time. Because God is a God of now, not in the past, not in the future. So I treasure my sixty years in religious life, every part of it. Because I believe that God had given me grace, walk by my side, tenderly helping me, holding me, cautioning me, and always. Otherwise, in a human way of speaking is sixty years, for God has no years, just present, now. I treasure this because God has called me and I look back, it seems to be yesterday. I’m not sure what is ahead of me, but I’m only sure God is with me. But I believe God is still, as before, holding me in His hand, walking with me, until one day I see him face to face. There’s no words that can explain, God actually achieved everything for me, I do nothing. So I think from now on, I should be living every day in gratitude.
