A note to one in their 90s who is tired an weary an wants to go to God. Often the case for those in their 90s especially those ill an those poorly supported by family an friends. The danger comes wen they may rush God's Hand instead of waiting for His Perfect Time . But this person is wrestling with whether she is still Catholic...an so my response...
"It is with great Love that I write this note to you. I remember you vividly. A woman of great strength..praise God. a leader of your family. And although our church leaders and members often show they're uglier sides as in many places of worship an society today, we remain Catholic because we fortunately have Truth in Fullness. We r The Church, sinners an saints. You were baptized, made Confession, Holy Communion and Confirmation. You are a sacramental Catholic and that makes you a part of our church. Your Love of the Blessed Mother, your parents & godparents intervention and example to you says you are Catholic no matter what words you use, you are ours. That doesn't mean a perfect Church that doesn't mean a perfect life it means that you can't undo the wonderful Miracles God has done in your life. And the fact that you sacrificed greatly to give your children faith & an education in Catholic schools speaks Worlds 2 me and I know to God. So please stand proudly and Proclaim your being Catholic again, please receive the gifts of the church of healing in confession, anointing of the sick an Holy Communion and the Apostolic Pardon. You deserve these gifts , the sacraments of strength to help you continue to walk through your life until the moment God says come home. Death is like walking through a doorway, you close your eyes to this world and then open them to the Face of God. How beautiful this transition will be for all of us. Praying for u. Courage. Live cause neither ur doctors, u, nor hospice can predict that moment an it is not our place to rush.
God has deigned to have u alive for a purpose...you still have work to do...luv on those u c...pray for a world in great suffering..beg God to become the saint u were created to b. After death many souls wished they had one more minute to Luv on God an make a contribution. Let God worry about the wen an how...trust Him...dont let mere humans dictate their theories wen God Almighty is The Greatest..All Powerful Father Who loves u an calls u His Own. Live....live well...an then wenever death comes u will b ready...peaceful..knowing Heaven will b urs. I luv u. I promise u my prayers an support. Feel free to call me anytime if u would like to talk ...
B proud of a job well done an still being done ...because u live...u share...u bless...an ur mission is still not done yet..continue to b everyone's teacher...dont rush God....b encouraged an hopeful...
We trust God to handle everything! God bless!"
Plz keep this woman an her family an all those in similar situations with their elders close in ur prayers!
