Thank you.

I too was a cradle Catholic…and it wasn’t until I was an adult, that I truly grasped the gift of my faith, and studied scripture. Your words challenge me to be a better Catholic Christian witness to my family and all I come in contact. Thank you for those two great quotes as well.
God bless you in your ministry and your work!

There are many ways to do this, but often hard to do with a smile because of our own preoccupations. I am going to try harder.

Thank you for your lovely message today, Doctor.

We need more people living out their faith, including myself. God is constantly calling us closer to Him and, I agree, we need His strength to live that out with our families and people we come in contract with every day.

I am not a cradle Catholic. I was baptized as a baby but that was as far as my childhood religion went. My father was agnostic and my mother a non-practicing Catholic. However, my mother lived her faith. I learned from her how to be a good Christian. It was through her illness and subsequent death that I found the Lord. What a difference it makes in one’s life. No matter how I tried I couldn’t make my father a believer. He said once he wished he could believe, but you can’t just say “I believe. It is so.” Our faith is truly a gift. God bless you, and all the writers, for sharing your faith with us.

Thank you Dr A. This is a reminder and sort of a catechism in itself. Brilliant! Love this CM!!!
