My story is long so I'll spare you the details but I'm now 2 years removed from the catholic church. I counted the cost prior to leaving and sure enough I've lost everthing accept my husband and home. Though not all have completely abandoned us the relationships will never be the same. On this journey God has been faithfully working to unravel and remove the people, things, mindsets and habits of church and religion that were woven into my being since birth and all I can do is trust that he knows what's best for me. God alone is my strength and my portion. I count on nothing and no one else other then God to sustain me but I too miss the fellowship with like hearted believers. Writing music is my therapy.

Its amazing how you convince yourself to keep those bridges open for traffic, even though you gladly recieved the box of matches from the Holy Ghost.

Having a personality type that enjoys peace and solitude definitely helps : ) My only link also to like thinkers is through different internet sites along with books. My husband is a Christian, but not on the same page as me as far as how he is growing. I hope one day at least he and I can share more together in Christ, but would not trade that hope for knowing Him and walking alone.

Boy has it been lonely for a few years now. My only link to brethren of like faith is the internet at this time and season. God Bless you!
