How do you live your day? Do you just go to mass on sundays,pray a set of Mysteries every day,maybe a little EWTN before bed?

Are you HOT/LUKEwarm/cold?

Is your faith a Belief or a Action?

Do you Evangelize whenever the oppurtunity arises? Do you use words AND Actions to preach the Gospel?

How on "FIRE" are you?
What is the level of your devotion to the Lord?
Is it Fanatical?

When you see pro-choice pro-abortionist,do you go to them and rebuke them or do you walk right by?
When you see a protestant or a Jehovah witness (Jehovah witnesses are Arians,A heresy 1000 yrs prior to the Protestantism heresy) do you Correct them?
When you see people praying by a church,do you pray with them?
Are you willing to DIE for God today? If so,do you try to avoid it or are you more like Ignatius of Antioch,who was thrilled to die for the Lord.
Tell me,Is your life more important then God,or your ways more important then his?

I am a sinner,I am slothful,Let us rise up a Catholics and Do more! Encoruage eachother to be on fire with the Holy Spirit.Please,I can't do this alone,lend me your eyes and then lend me your arms!

God bless you,
Mark

Thank you for the encouragement. How fitting for Advent!
However, I just want to remind you that perfection is to obey God in everything He asks of us, in total surrender, and He does not necessarily ask each of us to do all of the things you listed. Our willingness to is important, of course, but one can't assume that a Catholic not correcting JWs at the metro is disobeying God. Perhaps Our Lord has better plans for that person at that moment. Just sayin'! God bless you.

So not as much as I should be. I pray every day, through out the day, but Im not consistent with the important things, like confession and the rosary. I do go to Mass every Sunday, my husband works almost every day and school 3 nights a week, so getting there with all my kids can be difficult, so Sunday is always, but not more then that...
Thanx for the thought...

It has been getting better in the last couple of days . Frequent Confession for me and more daily prayer is getting me there more and more. Reading the Bible daily is also part of the life blood keeping me alive. Without it, it all starts going south.

Speaking of keeping your faith alive, Internet addiction does not help at all. With this in mind, we should not spend so many hours on-line. See you all another day.

Ja, I'm "AWAKE" enough to realize that you just stole my siggy? What gives? At least you could've told me.  [In reality, I don't really mind; as I find imitation, as the saying goeth, the "highest form of flattery." I'm just kind of shocked that anyone would see find to "imitate" me?! Crazy]

Nota Bene: If I ask for Catholic catechical information or help: Please cite Pre-Vatican II texts; I will not accept information from the New Catechism. I have it already; I know what it says: I wished to know what the Church has traditionally believe not what Vatican II has watered-down of the faith.  I want the faith, pure and simple.
