I was born a Catholic. And up until now, I still consider myself as one. Maybe I'm not 100% Catholic but it's the religion that works for me the most. I believe most of its teachings and how it has provided me with the faith that I have right now. I have a few things that may or may not follow being a Catholic but I call it, freewill.
This past month have been a grueling, if not, hypocritical for me. I have been juggling my Sundays, my worship days, with 2 religions. I attend the Catholic mass in the morning and then I go to a born-again Sunday worship in the afternoon. Before I did this, I consulted myself, my family (who are ALL Catholics) and God (of course). My reason for doing this is that I was invited by my mother-in-law, who is a (renewed) devotee of the born-again Christian fellowship. The children and I were left in her care by my dear husband when he left for his work abroad. And being a doting daughter-in-law and a "law"-abiding citizen (plus the fact that my faith teaches me to "Honor thy father and mother."), I obliged and followed.
Call me whatever you want to call me. I may do so as well if I had your point-of-view. But I know what I want and I know my own faith. I know what I believe in. As my husband says, everything will fall into their right places SOON. I trust that will happen. The Lord has never given me anything I could not handle. I trust that too.
*** I will probably make another blog post about this when things have changed... or not.
