Proud to be a Catholic ping!

I choose sanity. I choose the Catholic Church. Forever.

I choose the BOOK Rome assembled: long, long ago. I choose Jesus - not His mom. I reject the added necessities that Rome has inflicted upon it's members.

Micah 6:8

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

John 6:28-29
Then they asked him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?

Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent."

1 John 3:21-23
Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him.
And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.

James 1:27

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

I thank our good Lord every day for being born Catholic.
What a JOY it is.
I go to Mass six days a week. There is a rosary right before Mass. How could I get through a day without the rosary, Mass and Holy Communion?

Our blessed and good Lord has blessed me (and you) VERY much.

ALLELUIA!

As am I!

O Christ Jesus
When all is darkness
And we feel our weakness and helplessness,
Give us the sense of Your Presence,
Your Love and Your Strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
In Your protecting love
And strengthening power,
So that nothing may frighten or worry us,
For, living close to You,
We shall see Your Hand,
Your Purpose, Your Will through all things.

St. Ignatius of Loyola

Thank you for posting this. Beautiful. I somehow missed it when originally posted.

I suppose I should be thankful for the rancor it generated (simply for being an affirmation of the Church apparently). Without the rancor by the usual suspects though, I never would have seen it.

Funny how that works. So thanks also to all who wish to only denegrate Catholicism. You helped me (and others) see the OP tonight. And be blessed.
