Thoughts...

Today I'm thinking about the Church again. Where should I go? Where should I lead my family? I feel somewhat pulled toward the Catholic Church but at the same time I feel a certain apprehension. My thoughts are scattered. Nothing new there. Sometimes I think I should just stay where I am in the PCA Church. This Church is a definite blessing from God. The people are great. They love Jesus. They want to do the works of Christ. We love the music. Donnie is great Pastor. We are very compatible with the people. They want to follow Christ. The Church is somewhat close to our house. I haven't given them the opportunity to know me and I haven't made the effort to know them or get involved in any activities in the Church. Lord I feel that I should wait until I hear from you more clearly. I know those some lame reasons for wanting to leave or stay with a Church but these are just thoughts running through my numb skull. They aren't the deciding factors that will keep me in the protestant Church.

These were some of my thoughts today. The Church is divided but it is divided and Jesus is still head of the Church. The protestant reformation was a catastrophic event in the Church. The Church will reunite when Christ fixes the mess that men have caused in the Church. The controversies that divide the Church are so far above my head that I can't possibly figure out how to reconcile the divisions. Lord, I sometimes feel that you have put me in this place and I need to make the best of the situation where I am. At the same time I feel a strong curiousity and an attraction toward the Catholic Church and I'm waiting on some kind of confirmation from You.
