Born and raised in Buffalo New York, a Catholic child instilled with the fear of God. Going to mass, being told of God's wrath on sinners and believing I would never "make it to heaven".
Catholic education, no encouragement to read the Bible.....Just look at the priest as the closest thing to God Himself. And, fear.....lots of fear.
This is how I "believed" for 48 years of my life. In fear.
This blog will journal my journey through faith. The way I have grown to know God. How I have learned and am learning about my Saviour, Jesus Christ. But mostly about the love and grace and forgiveness that my God extends out to me each and every day.
His blessings and comfort, His never ending forgiveness and the unconditional love He gives me....
I no longer am a believer because of fear, I am a believer because of goodness, grace and love.
I hope you take this journey with me and share your inspiring stories.
