things NOT to tell God

[theculturewarrior]

Sometimes, when I'm having a hard time finding a place to park, I see a handicapped parking place and I think, "I wish I was handicapped!" God's reading this though, so just let me clear the air. I DO NOT wish I was handicapped!

What silly things have you said to God?

At least you don't fake being handicapped to get the space...

Sometimes (especially when I get bad grades or do something really stupid) I "wish" I was dead.

"I wish I were an Oscar Meyer weiner."

I didn't really say that, but still, something you don't want to tell God.

When I was a kid watching the Red Sox, I would pray "please let them win this game and every one after it". I was serious too, lol.

Baseball is good, the Red Sox aren't.

"I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller, I wish I had a girl who looked fine, I would call her."

ummm.... I wish I could have grown up in an orthodox Jewish household, and I could have gone to Hebrew School and learned something useful, instead of growing up in a lukewarm, unorthodox "catholic" family in a liberal parish. I love my family to death, but if I went to hebrew school when I was little, I'd be able to read the Bible in Hebrew and chant in Hebrew and do cool stuff like that. They didn't teach us that in CCD, they just taught us about sunsets and flowers and daffodils and jesus loves you.

Then I could go through RCIA in my 20's, get real catechesis and I wouldn't have to learn the hard way Plus going through RCIA means you get all kinds of free stuff. So I'd get the free stuff, AND I'd know Old Testament Hebrew. What could be better? Plus I'd get to come into the Church @ Easter Vigil and I would know what was going on.

this probably all sounds really stupid. but being a re-vert is dumb and you miss out on all the good stuff

You don't have to not be Catholic to go through RCIA. (And it's not always real catechesis! : )

[theculturewarrior]

BTW: I definitely learned every thing in life the hard way, even the Truth of the Church! :

you don't *have* to be non-Catholic to do RCIA but it's a little late for me I've already been an active practicing Catholic for about 3 years and I have the basics down. RCIA is a communal experience that you're never really part of unless you're becoming Catholic or a sponsor going through the process.

[theculturewarrior]

It wasn't for me! But I guess it is for most. Even then, there are lukewarm converts.

I feel like I want to die right now, but that is a feeling, not a prayer. Or even a want.

don't die! I would miss you!!!!
are you ok?

[Proud2BCatholic139]

I said, I want to die and I never want to come back to earth again.
I said I wanted a person dead.
I said I wanted to kill a person and wished they were dead.

Oh, brother, I am a fool.

[philothea]

I am occasionally distressed about eternity, because I can't imagine putting up with myself for... ...ever. I don't quite know how to ask to stop existing, though.

I only really go "whoops, did I say that?" after I ask for certain virtues I lack, when I know gaining them is going to hurt.

[ardillacid]

I wish i weren't so perfect
