in 2015 Pope Francis has proclaimed a Year of Consecrated Life. Regarding to fulfil this year, through several article, we can get several questions about it. One of the reflection reviews that really came in my thought "the worst crisis of religious life is that we did not really know our own identity". On the other word I can say, "Who Am I?' We heard this question for many times, in any level of formation; this question is still actual asked today.
In the real situation of religious life today, I fully agree with this question. Personally this question brings me back to deeply reflect and to purify my motivation, my calling, my own personal identity and my identity as member of Sister of Our Lady of Amersfoort. We cannot make a renew when we did not know well who and how we are at this moment. Dealing with concrete situation in the society and dealing with the real situation in my congregation, I can ask some critical thoughts to myself:
Who am I as Sister of Our Lady of Amersfoort? Did I really know, understand the identity of my congregation well? The spirituality and its charisma?
In the realization of the year of consecrated life, for me it is a year of reflecting, re-examining and re-known our own identity and time for reconciliation in responding God's calling in my life; it means that I give and create room for God as centre of my life.
