Church

Growing up in a strict Catholic household I try my best to uphold my religion in my everyday lifestyle. I was the young girl whom would go to church all by myself on some Sundays. Not for any other reason but to listen to the word of God. I see myself doing the same today. I go to church as much as I can and encourage others to as well. In Georgia churches are everywhere. I have a Catholic Church one block away from me in every direction. Every denomination is represented within a half mile radius of my home.

It's funny but you can ignore God for so long but when your in trouble or need direction he's always the first person everyone turns to. I went to mass in College during midterms and finals and sometimes could not get in the door. During Easter Sunday and Lent people come out in drones and it bothers me.  I know people can praise the Lord in their home because I do but why should a religious holiday change that?

I am not perfect. I do call on God when I'm in trouble or times of uncertainty but time has shown me that God sees the people we are. Whether we faithfully pray or try to live life with the  best intentions he sees that. People whom go to church every Sunday and then don't live their life with God in their heart and mind, to me are not fulfilling his wishes (but again it's not for me to judge).

I watch Church television and Joel Osteen is the best preacher I've listened to. I'm into inspirational speakers  and every week he empowers me. It is because of God and him that I have a straight forward mindset. If anyone has any down time and is feeling like they need a progressive spirit, listen to Joel Osteen on Sunday.Here's a clip of one of his great sermons:
