Why is it so hard to be Catholic..?

Sacraments… Contraception, Abortions, Apostasy, Heresy, Excommunication… Going to Church every week. Hardly having that personal relationship with God. Clergy men… It is ritualistic.

I have received many blessings, but I don’t know… There are just some matters wherein I think this Faith is losing its connection with proper worship and forgiveness.

I need someone to help me bring myself back to my Faith - to strengthen my belief in the Catholic Church and the Canon Law.

From one Catholic to another,

being Catholic is perfectly easy! It’s about giving your life to God, and in return God will bless you with His grace. Sometimes we fall, but the sacraments help us carry on especially Confession. The mass every week is a beautiful experience, we need help from God, and if I could I would go every day.

If you think being a Catholic is hard, you should try being a Baptist.

When you question your faith, one of the better things to do is look into other faiths. Just see what the other options are. Maybe your religion isn’t right for you, maybe your doubt is a sign that you’re doing it wrong, you never know. I’m not telling you what to believe or what not to believe, I’m just saying that it’s possible you could be happier with something else. There are thousands of religions out there, and each of those have smaller sects. You can find something that you feel right following, I’m sure.
