One year, and still can't keep it together.

It has been one year since I became a Roman Catholic and a member of the church Christ established through Peter to carry on his message until his return.

I bow and receive the body and blood of my savior in my mouth. His Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity fill me inside and out with his presence. As my community move in a steady flow to one by one receive the same gift, the eternal gift of our savior.

It has been over a year and I still can not keep myself from crying. As a mater of fact, I don't think I have cried as much as I did on this Easter any other time other than Vigil last year.

As I was walking down the isle I was thinking about how I have not been as appreciative of the gift of conversion that God gave me as I should be. But, once I received the Eucharist I felt a flood of emotion come over me, as if God had hugged me and told me that it was all ok. "I still Love You, and My body is proof of My forgiveness", I felt him say to me.

You may not believe that the Catholic Church is the "One Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church." You may not believe that Peter was "The Rock" that Jesus made the leader of his church. But I pray that you will research, study, pray, and believe that the Eucharist is the true and whole Body of Christ. Not just in spirit but in flesh and blood.

If you truly believe this, it will change your life forever!

To God be the Glory,
Amen and Amen

This is most encouraging! May God bless you in your life in Christ, for we are partakers of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4). I was utterly amazed when I first heard that we partake in Christ's divinity through the Eucharist. What a privilege! =)

My friend I hate to say this because I was once much like you, but you are miss guided and incorrect about many of the things in your posts. I would encourage you to read The Gospel according to John, the sixth chapter very carefully. When you get to the part about the flesh being "of no avail" I want you to research what was actually being said from the Greek and Hebrew. Christ was not saying that his teaching was limited to a spiritual truth. He was saying that this very hard, very powerful teaching did not come from his fleshly authority or understanding, but that I was through his spirit tha the taught these things.

Food to chew on.

Okay, so you don't update very often. I was an ordained baptist youth pastor until I was received into the church on Easter. I love it too!
