But what about those that don't know what to believe? These are the people that question or doubt that there is a God. Then you have those that do believe in God but they can't totally agree with any one religion. Many times these are the people that feel they should go to a church but can't because in each religion there are things they agree with and then there are those things they don't agree with and again these are the people I want to reach out to this morning.</span></b></div><div style="text-align:left;"><b><span style="font-size:large;"> </span></b></div><div style="text-align:left;"><b><span style="font-size:large;">The Universe to me is the church. It doesn't take much when you look at things like the picture up there to start to believe that yes there is a God and he is a good God. When you look at this picture how else can you explain the wonders in the Universe other than a supreme being? Regardless of what different religions call their (God), the ultimate wonder of our Universe tells your soul there is an Alpha and Omega. Hundreds of thousands of years ago people did not have these pictures or even have a clue there was something beyond the place they lived yet they believed. Now we are privy to what is far from Earth and still some don't believe. This baffles me that one can look at the beauties of the Universe and have any question at all of there being a God.</span></b></div><div style="text-align:left;"><b><span style="font-size:large;"> </span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear:both;text-align:center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WC3YZPUsXGA/WkjviI7IvCI/AAAAAAAAKXU/PsNk3a4ItYcribs-eF5tJShHVl8OdAJwACLcBGAs/s1600/Worlds-Most-Beautiful-Places-1.jpg" style="margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WC3YZPUsXGA/WkjviI7IvCI/AAAAAAAAKXU/PsNk3a4ItYcribs-eF5tJShHVl8OdAJwACLcBGAs/s320/Worlds-Most-Beautiful-Places-1.jpg" width="320" alt="Worlds-Most-Beautiful-Places-1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear:both;text-align:center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-H8FUgMOr93Q/WkjvohlP_5I/AAAAAAAAKXY/zztFZrSldlwUNpwiOzIJnHS4WJWaSWJdACLcBGAs/s1600/the-most-beautiful-gardens-all-over-the-world-wallpapers-1920x1080.jpg" style="margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-H8FUgMOr93Q/WkjvohlP_5I/AAAAAAAAKXY/zztFZrSldlwUNpwiOzIJnHS4WJWaSWJdACLcBGAs/s320/the-most-beautiful-gardens-all-over-the-world-wallpapers-1920x1080.jpg" width="320" alt="the-most-beautiful-gardens-all-over-the-world-wallpapers-1920x1080.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align:center;"></div><div style="text-align:left;"><b><span style="font-size:large;">If you are one of the people that I am seeking this morning and you at times feel you should be in church on Sundays and Wednesdays but can't find the right religion for you I suggest you look to the World around you and above you for all that you see is the spiritual wonder that is your religion.

I noticed as I got out of<br />my car that fellow church members were whispering among themselves as they<br />walked to the church. As I got closer, I saw a man leaned up against the wall<br />outside the church. He was almost lying down as if he was asleep.<br /><br /><br /><br />He had on a long trench coat that was almost in shreds, and a hat topped his<br />head, pulled down so you could not see his face. He wore shoes that looked 30<br />years old, too small for his feet, with holes all over them. His toes stuck<br />out.<br /><br /><br /><br />I assumed this man was homeless and asleep, so I walked on by through the doors<br />of the church. We all gathered for fellowship for a few minutes, and someone<br />brought up the man lying outside. People snickered and gossiped, but no one<br />bothered to ask him to come in, including me.<br /><br /><br /><br />A few moments later, church began. We all waited for the preacher to take his<br />place and to give us the Word, when the doors to the church opened. In came the<br />homeless man walking down the aisle with his head down.<br /><br /><br /><br />People gasped and whispered and made faces. He made his way down the aisle and<br />up onto the pulpit. He took off his hat and coat.<br /><br /><br /><br />My heart <i>sank.</i><br /><br /><br /><br />There stood our preacher... he was the "homeless man."<br /><br /><br /><br />No one said a word.<br /><br /><br /><br />The preacher took his Bible and laid it on the stand...<br /><br /><br /><br />"Folks, I don't think I have to tell you what I am preaching about<br />today."</p><p></p><p><b><i>– Author Unknown and Greatly Appreciated!</i></b></p><p></p><p><b><i><br /><br /></i></b></p><p></p><p><i>Know Jesus with the mind -<br />the study of the Catechism: know Jesus with the heart - in prayer, in dialogue<br />with Him.
