I have a broken, unmended, seriously battered heart. When the pains come of brokenness I offer them up to God with Jesus on the cross...I offer my suffering up to God as a sacrifice sometimes ... sometimes in reparation... sometimes in just love for Christ. I never ask God to take my suffering. It won't happen I already know. I can't get the years back I lost with my son. I embrace this wound as an opportunity to get closer to Christ. Suffering is what purifies our love for God. I thank him for the chance to suffer. With him. I just learned how to do this recently. I turned a corner. It's been a long 7 years. I was suicidal over this a couple years ago. I thank Jesus I didn't succeed. God saved me. Since I came back to the holy catholic church I haven't had one suicidal thought. Praise be to God! Amen
I asked Jesus a few years ago to teach me total trust. He certainly placed situations in my life so that I could learn. Was it hard? Yes! Was it worth it? YES!! I am so thankful, trust is so needed in these times!! I go to Adoration every Thursday from 5 to 6. Have been doing this for years. Would not miss my time with Him!! Excellent homily Father....thank you so much!!
WHAT A GIFT!! This young priest is brilliant. Please share more of his homilies. He was engaging, cogent and extremely relevant. My heart was touched as I believe the Holy Spirit led me to hear this today as I face some very challenging elements in my life. My boat is very very shaky but hearing this wonderful young priest I was filled with hope and renewed trust in our Lord and our Blessed Mother. Thank you, Thank you.
Great quote from St Bruno, that’s practically been keeping me afloat even before the plandemic. Those church closures last year wrecked my one on one time with the Sacrament outside of the Mass. I think the time spent doing that prior to the mess was helpful in keeping my sanity, along with daily Mass readings and rosaries
Thank you very much Father! Our Lord and Our Lady are our sure anchor in this present turmoil in our world. No one in this world has the solution except Our Merciful and Loving God! He is in charge! Therefore our hope must rest in Him alone and Our Lady is the surest way to lead us all to Her Son. The Eucharist and the Rosary are the best weapons! May God be praised!
In my experience, trusting Jesus is “ hard work”. Saying I trust Jesus is easy. Praying fervently is easy. But everything is hard work if you ever gain the blessings of trusting Jesus!
Alone, we cannot trust in Jesus. But by God's grace we can trust in him every second of our life, especially when things happen the way we don't desire. There, the power of God's grace in us will show its strength. The closer we grow to God, the easier we find it to please him all the time, the easier we find it to win all temptations immediately and always. Thank you.
Trying and working hard at it is what is important. Below is a part of Jesus' message to Sister Faustina: "I do not reward for good results but for the patience and hardship undergone for My sake." (86) I remind myself of that message when I feel life is tough. So when you, too, feel the same way, continue with your "hard work."
@@famj4860 Yes. You're right. Take suffering. God does not like suffering, except for his Son. So what does he want from us? To suffer because suffering is part of life as it is now after sin, he gives us his help in our suffering, and what he wants from us is patience in suffering. So much so that God is more pleased with the crosses that come upon us without our will than with the suffering that we choose to make ourselves. Patience is a great virtue that can save us also from Purgatory.
Adoration in your chapel every single day ❤thank you for this homily Fr.JOSEPH.. so strengthened and inspired and 'fed' by your teaching ... so affirmed 🙏❤
I learned of the Father's of Mercy on EWTN. They are a wonderful order of priests true to the orthodoxy of the Catholic Church. You can't go wrong listening to their preaching and teaching. They very reverently offer the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. GOD BLESS AND MARY KEEP THESE HOLY PRIESTS. Thank you Fathers of Mercy for your fiat!
As the text of the 1949 beautiful Catholic hymn to Our Lady entitled "Mother of Christ" reads: "Mother of Christ, Mother of Christ, I toss on a stormy sea, O lift thy Child as a Beacon Light to the port where I fain would be. And Mother of Christ, Mother of Christ, this do I ask of thee: when the voyage is o'er, O stand on the shore, and show Him at last to me!" [ 3rd verse from: The Catholic Chapel Hymnal c. 1949 McLaughlin & Reilly p. 49].
Very good! You have expressed so many beautiful thoughts on Mary, our heavenly Mother. The litany is full of praises to Mary. One of them is: Help of Christians. St John Bosco was very devout to Mary under this title. He performed many miracles obtained from God through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. I'm trying to spread far and wide the great power Mary has before God. She performed many miracles through St John Bosco. My RU-vid videos: ST JOHN BOSCO by JOE ZAMMIT. Mary is mentioned in every video Thank you.
Whenever I listen to this holy Priest and those like him, it gives me great hope and confidence for the future of our Holy Mother Church and Her Teachings. JESUS, through these holy and faithful Priests, confirms His Promise to be with us always and that the gates of hell will not prevail against our Catholic Church.❤
I did not realize that I had responded to this (I'd listened before) in the past. I NEED THE GOSPEL!!! He is all I have, and I need to know what is me and what is Him.......
Adoration truly can stop war sickness etc. 25 years ago I received my answer on how to educate my then 4 year old daughter who couldn’t read. I put her in front of him a d asked even demanded I told him you created her you know what I need to know. I never asked him to change her just give me the directions. Jesus rewards acts of faith especially in adoration.
Fr. I like the way you explain the word of God, i hope you always in Ewtn that way , i can wTch everyday. God bless you & your bro. Fr jewel. We love you fr.joseph.
Please TURN UP the VOLUME!!! Pray the Rosary! Stella Maris our Lady the Virgin Mary will Pray it with you….if you ask her. Put you to sleep without “Sleeping Pills”. Me after 30 years of using them. No kidding! After the first night! If you fall asleep after 1 or 2 decades…continue and finish the Holy Rosary when you wake up…SHE WILL KNOW WHERE YOU LEFT OFF and drifted of to sleep. So finish reciting it when you start waking up. No kidding, she is your Mother. I LOVE YOU….The Mother of the Universe. PAX et BONUM. 🙏💗🙏
Great message!I have a question my daughter is a student at UCLA this is her last year and she needs to get vaccinated or she can’t go back,she does not want to get vaccinated and does not know what she should do.
She can try just about everything @ her disposal to get an exception, & she should, but in the end, if she's not able to succeed on getting exception, it'll come to this Q: Is it worth it? I hope that by now she should have it clear the multiple risks that come w/ the experimental transgenic "therapy" jab entails, especially for women. So, when push comes to shove, it is NOT WORTHY IT -- health wise, moral wise & spiritual wise. If she has a well formed moral conscience, seeks good moral & orthodox spiritual direction, it'll be fairly easy to discern the right thing to do. God will provide.
@@SaintCharbelMiracleworker virtual learning is unacceptable. No one should be graduating using virtual "learning". I would not hire any who " graduated these past two years.
This' my Eucharistic prayer: "Lord I NEED YOUR LOVE, UR HEART, UR WILL, UR GRACE, UR SPIRIT! Pls grace me perseverance till death. BLESS my 2sons with ur spiritual &material providence. I offer up my heart, soul, & my entire will in reparations for all my sins & the sins of the whole world!"
Yes, Father......Even the Didiche, the oldest teaching of the Apostles, the Eucharist....is the main focus. as is the Our Father prayer to be said three times Morning, Noon and Night. The Apostles taught The Way of Life and The Way of Death. To be a follower of the Apostles how can you not take this as a basic of true faith.
We are in the greatest spiritual warfare, destitution and mass destructions in all of human history. How does this match up with what you are hearing in Church?
All Christians, churches, leaders and religions not knowing and doing spiritual warfare and deliverance will be destroyed in these times of terrible spiritual warfare.
Receiving Holy Communion twice in a day is a form of spiritual gluttony, comparable to the Israelites wandering in the dessert in regard to the mamma which the collected every morning more than they needed.
Then I'm a spiritual glutton and praise God for the gift of His UNLIMITED LOVE WHICH CAN NOT BE MEASURED. No way can we understand completely this mystery of our God, therefore we are guided by The Catholic Church and trust in His Wisdom.
I love the grounded reality of this channel!!! Retirement took a toll on my finances, but with my involvement in the digital market, $27,000 weekly returns has been life changing. AWESOME GOD ❤️
