Walking up these steps into a world that I don’t understand they say it’s part of a plan they lead and I follow they tell me that this will be the answer to all my sorrow but I’m not too sure
Open up that heavy door smell of that smoke they call incense but it never really made sense to me, and there’s somebody called saint stained on this glass but I keep my eyes down, don’t wanna cause any trouble for if I’m too loud I’ll pop the bubble, why is everybody so quiet!?
Why do I sit here in silence until they tell me what to say, “and with your Spirit,” but all I see is a man dressed up and it becomes too tough to sit still fillin up with boredom and confusion cuz I don’t really know whats going on. And it seems that the pastor preaches to everybody but me see my friends church got music and dancing but we mumble the same words every Sunday! Why?
I’ve got a question but I’m too embarrassed to ask it cuz they look at me like, “You should really know that by now.” Then the next minute they speaking about how our Faith contains mystery this Trinity, Salvation History, bread becomes BODY wine becomes BLOOD, Did Noah really survive that flood?! How am I supposed to know all that?
See I got these questions and I’m tryin live right, I wanna be good and do what I should but I‘ve got these concerns pulling me back and forth, got me contemplating my worth, where do I fit in? How do I know what to believe?
Then I was given some wise advice that its only when you stop reading that you begin conceding defeat and I was half asleep in that seat with all questions and no answers. I’m trying to practice what they preach but without anybody to teach me it’s like searching for the door in the dark. Somebody please turn on a light!
Then I finally stood up and spoke. Asked that question that was pulling at my heart startin to face my doubt and learn what the Faith is really about. Oh what a world I began to see how good it tasted to be free. So I search and I speak cuz I long for something greata but lata is just too late. Nah now!
And who would of thought that the world I misunderstood would be the life giving waters that put the Christ back in Christian finally found what I was missin, joy, peace, life in this Church that we call the body of Christ.
You can’t love what you don’t know and you can’t know what you don’t love. So if you’ve got a question go head and ask it cuz we are here for you at YouCatholic.
Live the Faith my young Christians. Be strong, and search on.
