The catholic Church

Most of my life I went to Catholic churches. I always knew there was more and I searched for it through bible studies and many christian friends. For the last couple of years I have been in a non denominational christian church. I respect the Catholic church as I do all churches that worship Jesus as their savior. I figured out why the catholic church is not for me. I was invited to a catholic wedding service yesterday. As I sat there I just kept thinking to myself, such a pretty church, such a nice service, familiar and full of rituals. But why would they keep Jesus in this pretty package and not let him envelope the place. It was as if they just touched the surface of what a relationship with Jesus could be. I couldn't wait to leave church so I could be "with him". All of my focus during the mass was on what to say and do next. Only during communion did I feel like one with Jesus.
