I either believe your church or I don’t for me there is no middle ground. Either 2+2 = 4 and Catholicism = the faith of God‘s people - or it doesn’t, and if I’m not all in - I am lost
So because I believe you my God. And I believe you are the one guiding the church, you have decided what the statutes, rules, seasons, liturgies, customs and Bible versions are for this time in your history. Some things do change through the ages so I know this is not abnormal many customs liturgies and even statutes of when and how to take the Eucharist has developed over time.
Because of my faith in YOU and your ability to guide all minds and hearts so your will can’t be thwarted; I believe all that you have given the Catholic Church to guide us to your truth.
I know evil people are also in the church but just because Judas was in the church hierarchy does not negate what you have given us as the faith. And maybe you chose Judas for just this reason - so we don’t disbelieve your church.
All man is evil and just because some fathers do obscene harm to their kids does not mean we stop having families. It means we hold tighter to the truth of what families and fatherhood should be - preaching the truth. Same with the church we should hold tighter to what the church should be and hold the leadership accountable.
I believe you can do all things! I know Your will is being done. I believe your church. Help me to be one who does my part to become holy through your grace, to make it what you made it to be
AMEN
