Word In Progress Karen Michaela Tan
My father, finding himself alone in his so-called golden years, became bitter and a little reclusive, which saw me having to deploy my shrinking time and emotional resources to be around for him. The pandemic and the new financial burden of my mother’s nursing home fees had eaten so savagely into my savings that at one point, I was down to RM3,000 in my bank account.
I’m able to still write this not because an angel appeared to berate me for the folly of my ways, but rather, because my relationship with God is multidimensional. My faith is one which I chose. Unbaptised at birth, born to a Catholic mother, and non-Catholic father, I was convent-schooled, and Mass-brought, but unable to fully participate in the Eucharistic feast until I took the decision into my own hands and attended RCIA.
Many Catholics live with a belief of unworthiness. It may have come from years of “Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof,” or hymns that remind us that “I am not worthy, that thou should come to me,” but this narrative of unworthiness sometimes belittles the great love God bears mankind.
