Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.
 
**Holy Mother, please intercede for us.
Hold the sorrowful, strengthen the fearful,
give aid to all needing help or healing,
assist those who are sick, in pain or suffering,
be with those needing peace, console the lonely,
comfort the lost or hopeless, guard the unborn,
pray for those who are dying or who have died,
soften those with hardened hearts,
enlighten those who do not yet see truth,
help us be brave enough to let our hurt and anger go,
show us the way to do the right thing,
protect those who are in danger,
and guide us from every evil.
May all who keep your sacred commemoration
experience the might of your assistance.
Amen **

Thanks for all the prayers. Sorry it’s taken so long for me to follow up on this, but to be honest, the more I think of it, I don’t really know what else needs to be said. I could go into my life story (at least for the past 8 years) but that would take forever. I don’t really know if it’s laziness or a fear to commit my life to it or perhaps worrying what my family would think or if it’s a combination of those things, but whatever the reason, as mentioned, I’m just a bit reluctant to actually convert, even though I’m starting to believe the Catholic church is the real Church. I guess I just need a softer, more obedient heart.

Again, thanks for all the prayers. Please keep them up.

After 10 years of helping in RCIA, and 16 years as a Catholic convert from secular philosophy and relativism, I can honestly say that this part of your journey is absolutely normal.

I’ve come to know this. That satan never bothers, annoys or harasses his friends. As long as you are lukewarm, in doubt or trying to walk away, he is silent. However, You are moving closer and closer to the truth and you are under attack. This is spiritual warfare. Look into your scripture and it will be very clear.

Recognizing that you are in the battle is the first step to overcoming these fears, anxieties and doubts. Stay constant in prayer, do not miss Mass, ask for prayer from as many people you know who will pray for you as you journey closer to home.

As our wonderful Pope JP II says, “BE NOT AFRAID”.
