Although the pain of loneliness can be exhausting, by it there is a certain advantage afforded in the service to God and others, but it is not for everyone. Everyone I love, who I feel a commitment to care for, who I know depends on and cares for me, becomes a rush of hesitation in those fleeting moments of decision when self sacrifice may be required. If I had no one who loved me then in that moment I risk my life to help or save others, I do so fully committed without hesitation, willing without regret to give my life for another. In those moments of decision the slightest doubt, the smallest hesitation can mean the difference between saving others or not. In advance I tell all those who come to love me that in a moment I might have to risk my life for another I will do it. I tell myself that and I pray before it happens the Lord give me strength and courage to do it. If I do not I will have shamed myself as a hypocrite and doubted my own faith. If I do I trust my loved ones will understand, that I will do so swiftly, that my sacrifice will save or inspire others and that my Lord will be with me.
