Which proves that you are attempting to please God with your good works. What a shame that you don’t understand that you can have a sureness of where your soul will spend eternity.
I pray that the Lord will open your eyes to the fact that all your so-called rightenousness is as filthy rags in his sight. He desires an intimate relationship with each and every one of us, not just good works, for works cannot save your eternal soul.
I avoid being righteous, truth be told. I may do "works", but a lot of times, not always joyfully (like this morning when I got up in the dark because I have to be at Church early to go over a specific anthem. This isn't just for the poor or the physically ill, but for everyone). We Catholics do good works because Christ asked it of us. We do it for love of Him, not necessarily the Church herself. And, no, if you do not have faith, works alone will not save you, but neither will faith alone. What is done, or not done, in the flesh counts and frankly I have no idea if I've done enough.
