What are some essentials for Catholic Christian living you eventually discovered but wish you had been made aware of much sooner in your faith walk?
Thank you ❤️
 
The reality of God. I think - I hope - that if I had heard someone speak of God in a way worthy of Him, as if He really, actually, at this moment IS, I might have heard it. I might have believed it. I might have come to life much, much sooner…
 
That masturbation and pornography are addictive and grave, potentially mortal sins. Also that confession isn’t about embarrassment but about mercy 🙂
 
How profitable the reading of writings of the apostolic fathers, the Imitation of Christ and other books that I became aware of lately. From Sunday school to mass pamphlets they should be recommended more.

Indulgence practice. I might have reformed my bad self much quicker if I had known that doing so could help me to help others. Sometimes just helping oneself is not motivation enough to get one off the dime.
 
@Dan_Defender,

Bless you for mentioning “The Imitation Of Christ”. I read that in the 1980’s as a seperated bretheren believer. I backslid from faith for 30 years and am returning by God’s grace with the help of the holy Catholic Church. I will read this before Monday.
Peace
