"Lost: You Are Here" | 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Fr. Mike's Homily)  

I will pray, please stay strong, don’t give up, you are being called to the one, true faith 🙏🏼

@@anitarespondek2356 thanks I need all I can get. Shook my faith a bit

Talk to a priest, make Catholic friends....your parents will be Ok.

Praying for you! I am an adult convert to Catholicism and I know your situation. Wishing you peace and strength. All will be well.

Prayers

I am an artist. Started my journey in 2004 after graduation. Pace yourself. God asks us to reciprocate patience because our understanding of everything is limited. In the mean time, grab a job and keep doing your art. You have to build over time. Life will throw curve balls. Steady yourself in God not art, for with that love He will have an outlet for you. May I entreat you to seek out Thomas Merton and his wisdom on art.

Indeed, it reminds me of quote from Saint Theresa, the "little flower!"

Amen! But don't forget to pray for the homeless, the sick, the poor, the needy, the brokenhearted, the sinners, and the nonbelievers as well. ♥️🙏🤲🏼

*These words are not mine.* These are the words the Ruach HaKodesh (YAHUAH's Set-Apart Spirit) uttered through me when I prayed to YAHUAH; asking him what *he wants* me to say, knowing the truth. Blessed are they who keep YAHUAH's word: "Know that YAHUAH is the name of the Most High and YAHUsha is the name of The Son. Come out of her, my people, who have fallen to the deceit of Constantine. Who know not my name and say they love me. I have made myself known. I have heard you and I am here. There are many who are yours to be saved. I am he who knows all that you are. Come to me, here are they who are mine. Make haste to come, here are we. Give in to them who speak of me, they are yours. I am here for you. Know that all is for them, here are we. Give not to them that are against me. I am he who sees all you do. Come to me out of her, all are here for me. Do what I say. Out of her, come. All are here." Exodus 3:13-15 KJV 13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you. 15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations. John 5:43 KJV 43 *I am come in my Father's name,* and ye receive me not: *if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.* 2 Corinthians 6:17 KJV 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and *touch not the unclean thing;* *and I will receive you.* Isaiah 52:6-7 KJV 6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I. 7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! 2 Corinthians 6:1-2 KJV 1 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) Romans 10:1-3 KJV 1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. Romans 10:13-17 KJV 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 *How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?* 15 *And how shall they preach, except they be sent?* as it is written, *How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!* 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. *For Esaias saith,* Lord, *who hath believed our report?* 17 *So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.* Nahum 1:7 KJV 7 The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and *he knoweth them that trust in him.* Hebrews 3:15 KJV 15 *While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.* Isaiah 52:11 KJV 11 *Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing;* go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the Lord. John 14:15 KJV 15 *If ye love me, keep my commandments.*

I was there too 😁😁 it was amazing!!

How did you know he was going to be there? I would have loved to go. I’m in the New York area.

With you 😇

One thing that keeps me moving forward is the phrase, Don’t worry. I love you. Or perhaps, Do not be afraid I am with you.

But this isn't about you, dear one. Are those who are blind, to smart? Are those who are confused, or struggling...not smart? Be gentle and empathetic please. Buying online isn't always smart :)

@@Jennifer-gr7hn :D I bet, blind ppl can't also see the You Are Here point :D Please exercise your brain, this is horrible

@@Jennifer-gr7hn and this is about a homily, not about malls. So, I don't see this pater to be blind, but maybe he isn't smart enough. Agree?

Watch Fr Mikes bible in a year! He makes it super easy to understand :)

I am wondering as well.

@brendamyc3173 I guess the mass isn't live, it's prerecorded.

The Mass is pre-recorded

On the east coast, it was 5pm when this was put out. Saturday vigils start at 4pm. Ergo, he was working on his homily FOR Sunday, and/or Saturday vigil. Only criticism on this vs the content?

I thought the Sunday mass was live on sundays and not recorded during Saturday vigils
