As someone with 3 sisters, definitely agree with Beth! Unconditional love doesn’t necessarily come with the sisters. I actually wonder if that’s possible for anyone other than God. Beth, I’m also one who didn’t feel love in childhood but feel God’s love so strongly, I loved that you brought that up that it might be a grace because how would we know that feeling having never felt it before? Regarding the service/support role, as a mom, I know that when I spent a lot of time serving and supporting outside of the home, I was very whiny AT home about having to do more. When I refocused that energy to my husband and kids, I realized we only have a certain capacity and as mothers, our support and service should primarily be with our family when it’s young and as they mature, we’ll have more time for people outside the home. Lastly, I read this in Frankenstein yesterday and it struck me as so relevant to this conversation: “But I have one want which I have never yet been able to satisfy; and the absence of the object of which I now feel as a most severe evil. I have no friend, Margaret: when I am glowing with the enthusiasm of success, there will be none to participate my joy; if I am assailed by disappointment, no one will endeavour to sustain me in dejection. I shall commit my thoughts to paper, it is true; but that is a poor medium for the communication of feeling. I desire the company of a man who could sympathise with me; whose eyes would reply to mine. You may deem me romantic, my dear sister, but I bitterly feel the want of a friend. I have no one near me, gentle yet courageous, possessed of a cultivated as well as of a capacious mind, whose tastes are like my own, to approve or amend my plans. How would such a friend repair the faults of your poor brother!” I too am praying for a good faith-filled female friend to walk alongside. 🙏🏻 Thank you for your beautiful ministry and podcast! My girls and I got good laugh out of the opening, that’s how our conversations go, including time homeschooling! 😂
Thank you so much for sharing your heart with us, sister. We're so glad you got a good laugh out of the intro! Such beautiful insights. 🥹 Never alone with Him!
Wow, such a powerful message! When we come to the realization that God was with us in our darkest moments and kept us from further harm is mind blowing. I can look back over my life and see this over and over and it brings tears to my eyes. Beautiful episode, thank you ❤🙏
Yes! This was 100% my experience at a retreat back in 2019 with y’all and Fr Parks bringing our Eucharistic Lord in the monstrance right up to each of us -it was absolutely the moment that has changed me forever ❤️🔥🙏
I’ve been to one Eucharistic procession/blessing (not a BIS one), and the main thing I came away with was that feeling of “I see you.” Something about the way the Host was angled in the monstrance reminded me of a face looking down at me, and I knew that Jesus was there looking at me specifically, not the whole congregation in general. ❤
I can say the Eucharist is THE reason I'm converting right now! Jesus opened my eyes and heart to His True Presence and that was soooo generous a gift to give me. He knew that would be the open door to my conversion. Praise the Lord. <3 What a special episode, I love you ladies.
So many things I could say! Believe what ever you want to it your choice. But your parents made you and if it's taken you so long to open your eyes as to what is going on around yourself you must have been so self centred and uncaring. Before you see yourself through the eyes of your God look at yourself through your own eyes first
I had to watch twice. The first time, I was just staring at your beautiful face 🥰. Your beauty shine from within. And I love your haircut. Okay, back to what you said 😄
True. It sometimes surprises me that I am still healing from an event from 45 years ago. I'll think I'm all good, then years later something will hit me. If I take it to Christ and ask "why? What am I missing?" I'll sometimes find a deeper, more nuanced injury that I needed to hand over to him to heal.
Returning to the Catholic Church after over 12 years after walking the Camino de Santiago in June! Any book recommendations for someone returning to the Catholic faith? I would really like to start praying the Rosary.
I am so glad that I found Blessed is She! Making the journey back to the Catholic Church after being away for over 12 years and BIS seems like it will be an amazing resource. I live in Phoenix and am going to attend the retreat in November. Haven't bought my ticket yet, but already reserved a hotel in the Tempe area for the weekend! Excited to get the planner for next year!
Wow, being almost afraid of his will really sat with me. Why do I say "Lord this is my hope, but your will be done" and expect his will to be less than???
She is correct. We were eggs in our mother, when she was an embryo inside her mother, who was an egg in her mother, when she was an embryo in her mother.... That's how far back our Heavenly Father's plan of Salvation goes that we can prove here in our human existence in our Spiritual journey through eternity. 🧡
Only halfway through this podcast but just had to comment and say how much I love listening to the 2 of you. Such simple wisdom yet in a fun and relatable way. And I feel closer to God. I am so grateful for both of you and Blessed is She. It has been a huge help in my faith!
I enjoy and look forward to these podcasts. They make me laugh, make me emotional and also give me a new perspective of life. I am grateful for BIS. God bless you 🙏
