As I am saying my Rosary this morning...I cant help to stop thinking about a visitor I had yesterday morning while I was here, it was my uncle whom I havent seen in quite a while. Hes baptist, and graciously came and visited me in My Chapel ...lol. I call this my place now cause I love it soo much. We didnt get to visit very long because I had to go to work. But my mind has been so courious. Why did he visit me here. He went to Catholic school, but said he was never a practicing Catholic and I asked him if he believed in this and showed him my rosary. He said no. Then he asked me what the 1st commandment was. I wasnt sure. So he told me. It was something like put no other god before me. I am the only God. I am not praying to Mary as a GOD. I pray to her to help and protect my family. My boys need her guidance, i cant be with them all the time. I didnt question anything, cause I believe what I believe and he believes what he believes. Im fine with that and love my aunt and uncle to death. But one thing he said I just dont get...( not saying it is wrong of them, so please dont miss understand ) how can anyone say they are SAVED? Im not questioning anyones beliefs, just trying to understand. I dont ever feel saved. And I wont be until...and hopefully I get through those pearly gates. To me you have to constantly be a work in progress. Everyone sins...we are all human. I have often heard that the Catholic Church h is currupt...somebody please tell me a church or organization that is not currupt! All I know is that I am where I belong. My journey has been a crazy one and most of you wouldnt believe me if I told you some of my experiences. You would think I had lost my mind. I have had amazing experiences. I think God I have Leukemia, he blessed me more than anyone could ever imagine. I never knew my faith could be this strong. Miracles happen every day if you just stop and take a moment to see them and realize what they truly are. This was not to discount anyones faith or beliefs. I just wanted to share my thoughts. And yes, I do and will continue to pray to Mary. After all she is our mother. Im praying I didnt offend anyone here. Its National Happy Day! Love and Peace.
