There was a period in my life when i searched and hungered to know more about God. I attended a Bible study given by a non-catholic teacher. I made it very clear to the pastor that I love my catholic faith but I just wanted to learn more about the Lord. The pastor understood and respect my stand.
In the following months, my faith soared like never before and God began to reveal Himself to me like I was Abraham. i learned a lot from my pastor and I began living in authentic Christian life. One day, my pastor told me, " If you will seek the truth,it will lead you out of the Catholic church." That statement disturbed me. The Lord knew that all i ever wanted was to know the truth.
I began to pray for wisdom and guidance for me to know the truth. I thought I was so sure of my Catholic faith but now I was wavering. I chanced upon a documentary on the life of Pope John Paul II. I wept at the holiness of this man,how God raised Him up to be the servant of the servants of God. I realized I have found the truth. I searched for the truth and it led me back to the catholic Church.

I do agree with the pastor. Our Chistian faith will become fully truth when we bring it out of our church as a witness of the truth that comes from our Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord be with us, my friend, wherever we are...
