I'm born a catholic and raised through catholic school, though I only went to church when I had to as a student and later on in years for weddings and funerals. In fact, I despise the catholic church more and more as time passes (we all know why). But there is something about what is going on that makes me feel that I need to reconcile with God. Not as a catholic, but as a person who truly believes God is why we are what we are. Why we are here, at this point in time. Sadly, I'm starting to believe that religions segregate us and keep us away from the real relationship that we should have with God. I know in my heart of hearts that if I drop to my knees, the answer will be there. At the same time, I'm scared to learn just how far away I've drifted from the truth! We all deserve a relationship with our true creator, and HE deserves the same. I'm ready to establish, re-establish, and even exhaust my effort to do so. I hope many of you are ready to do the same! We deserve it! HE deserves it!

I never speak. But today sir... I reply and call you brother.
I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. His Grace frees us all. To stumble along with Jesus in your heart, is difficult, then painful (the mirror of our own sin), then peaceful and free.
I read here daily, never speak.. feel compelled.
Religion has many faults and it has success. To walk with Jesus Christ in you heart, that is flawless. Many will disagree on doctrine and social construct. Walking with Him means Trusting in Him and in Trusting Him He will teach you. Peace.. real peace. In all time and all places. You will be crucified by the social world. Yet, know that millions of followers do so out of churches and when you meet us you will know a brother or sister as that is the Grace of His Spirit.
With that I will go back to silently reading post and mowing my lawn.
May Jesus walk with all of you! Even those who may not know Him.
I know I'm on the right path and I appreciate you for speaking to me!. Thank you
My pleasure.
Please comment more often fren. I enjoyed reading it.
Thank you, I appreciate your comment. I find I learn alot when I speak less and hear more. This board is my only social media. I learn alot here.
Did you know that the reason God gave us 2 ears and 1 mouth, we are supposed to listen twice as much as we talk.
Amen... well played
