Father, I’m so glad you eventually found your way home. And thank you for prompting me to write down where I just parked my car in long-term parking at the airport! Thank you above all for your ministry, your joy, and your sacrifice. God bless you!
Another gift from Father Mike. He continually speaks to our hearts with the exact words at the exact time we need them. God has placed him here for times such as these, please pray for him as he battles daily fir us and the Kingdom. ❤❤❤❤
I was just thinking how I wish you were my priest and then realized you are everyone's priest who tunes in. Thank you and God bless you ❤ (and God bless all clergy)
I really like Fr Mike's videos (altho' he doesn't get close to Bishop Robert Barron.) But I can't help but be a tad circumspect about a priest who is so extraordinarily well-groomed
Father Mike I know I’m not alone in saying you have a gift. I learn and grow so very much from you 🎉 thank you That being said, all glory and honor is Yours Almighty Father 🙏🙏 ✝️
So much more edifying than my Protestant church i going to still because I am living with my anti Catholic parents. The pastor misrepresented Catholics for the 5th week in a row. This time bashing the Catholic Church on Indulgences and they didn't fix their errors on selling them. Then bashed the Catholic Church again on the concert of purgatory and how their is temporal punishment for sin. Then bashed how Jesus' atonement for our sins wasn't like a random payment and how that is wrong because it's a Catholic stance. When I listen to Father Mike (any other Catholic priest for that matter) not once do they bash Protestants (even though they have every right too) Please pray that I will persevere. I would join the Catholic once i move out of my anti Catholic parents house. Their is a lot of bad things that has happened and questionable things that the Catholic Church does now but i will only convert because I know this is (with all it's faults because we're all sinners) that this is the church Christ established and that Christ is truly present in the Eucharist
Dear friend, I am praying for you. I grew up with an anti-Catholic mother and it took me years to have the courage to convert officially to Catholicism even though I was convicted by my studies of the faith pretty early on. I pray that our parents will come to understand and possibly even convert themselves. If you are joyous and faithful, they’ll see you have found something real. By joy I don’t mean laughing all the time, but rather that you have an abiding sense of well-being under everything. God bless.
What a blessing you are being led! Be not afraid! Go to mass whenever you can! I was so afraid to tell my parents I had become Catholic but it’s the greatest decision I ever made. God bless you!
Fr Thanks for the message for this week homily, " between the promise to our promised land, every step we take will take us closer to the person we are meant to be". So, like the Israelite wandering in the wilderness, we are not lost, but we are being led to pick up the necessary skills for the next steps, the next steps until we reach our promised land.
God is good!!!! Glory to Jesus Who teaches us even through what others experience step by step in their Christian pathways. May He remain our God forevermore!
“Even when led by God, we can still panic “. Wow! So true!!! Very blessed by this homily 🙏🏽 thank you Father Mike. May our Lord bless, protect and keep leading you to teach and bless us through your teachings!! Amen!
Amen!!! Thank you Father Mike for this homily. Listening middle of the week and so thankful for your words of wisdom. Praise be to God. Jeremiah 29:11. Keep hoping and doing good regardless of the circumstances!!
I am so happy when I listen to your homilies Between the Promise and the Promised Land is such a beautiful expression- it reminds me of Martin Luther King You have restored my dreams!
Fr.Mike...Thankyou for the powerful beautiful inspiring homily...You are amazing..am always inspired and touched by your sermons..This is the one message that I need at this time..Will listen again and again and take notes..Lord thankyou for Fr.Mike..bless him ..give him good health Thankyou Fr.Mike. ..you are the best...Praying for you...PTL.
Thank you father! I'm in the season between the promise and the promised land (I never saw it that way), I was starting to lose heart and your sermon really helped me today to keep walking. God bless you!
Wonderful homily Father, very insightful for those of us trying hard to be good Christians with many missteps along the way. I have said to the Lord many times, can't I just be your puppet? Then I won't have to go the wrong way. But that's not what life is about, its about learning and growing, while still staying on the path. Often I get caught up in thorns or feel despair and just sit down on the path. Then with the help of Jesus I am lifted and back on the path to the promised land.💖
Padre, hoy le hablo en español porque quiero decirle lo que siento desde lo más profundo. GRACIAS GRACIAS GRACIAS, Dios lo siga guiando y que la Virgen lo cubra con su santo manto. Abrazo gigante!
Very beautiful homily Fr. It really resonated me in such deep level. I was lost as to what is the purpose of my life. Infact I have been jobless and feeling hopeless for the last 2 years as I was continuing to find my purpose I found out that it is to be a teacher. And immediately I m pursuing that career path and this homily is just at the time I found my purpose and just as David was anointed but had a long path to reach. LORD is asking me to be patient as this new purpose unfolds in my life. THANK YOU JESUS, thank you Fr, for this message from God.
In life, the fun is in the chase and not so much about the destination. Notice how we are being trained very well on earth each day through going through challenges and hardships as if we are being prepared very well for the promised land. So, think of the promised land is just the beginning. Life is very rich, so we have to pay attention to details, location, sceneries, various events, lessons learned, and enriching our relationships with God while we are living on Earth, a Paradise in itself.
I don't know how to do this. I have obvious and affirmed gifts. I am respected. But every opportunity I've tried has come to nothing. I'm 53, and I am finding that the best thing for me is to let go of hope altogether. No optimism, no expectancy, because if I continue to hope-except for heaven-I just live devastated at the lost potential as time passes and at the continual failure to "get there". I know that God is trustworthy with all things. Trusting God that it's all for my best is a genuine act of faith, because it's certainly not what I'm led to feel by experience. Trusting Him for heaven is easier-and I assume my experience is fitting me for heaven, since it's not about good things for me here. Either way, putting an end to my hope in this life is what is helping me most, helping with some peace. I'd like to have joy some day. And this direction that I'm choosing in order to curb my depression doesn't sound Christian.
I am so very directionally challenged. I have coined the phrase “spatial dyslexia “ to describe my condition. It can be funny but also kind of scary to get so easily lost.
Too funny! I had friends that couldn’t believe how directional challenged I am! I told them if I could go to the library and LEARN a “sense of direction “ I would! But it just isn’t there! My husband says I’m the only person he knows that he can put me in the backyard, turn me around 3 times, and I couldn’t find my way to the front! (It would make me mad…but it’s true😮
I'm turning 30 next week and I've accomplished nothing thus far. I've been pursuing nursing for 5 years. I failed out of the first school. And now that I'm 2 months away from achieving a nursing degree, I was forced to withdraw. I've been extremely down this week, and this really helped. Thank you!

Twice I found parallels to Tolkien in your homily: "A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to" - Gandalf; J.R.R. Tolkien "Not all who wander are lost." -Also J.R.R Tolkien
GOD’S POWER AND SPIRIT: THE FATHER, JESUS, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT ARE ALL SEPARATE BEINGS. BUT WHAT MAKES JESUS ONE WITH THE FATHER (GOD)? GOD SHARES HIS POWER AND SPIRIT WITH ALL WHO LOVES AND OBEYS HIM, INCLUDING JESUS AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. JESUS PROVES THIS BY SAYING “HE CAN DO NOTHING OF HIMSELF” (JOHN 5:30). JESUS TELLS US IN JOHN 5:26 THAT THE FATHER HAS GIVEN HIM LIFE, AND THAT GOD IS “THE ONLY TRUE GOD” (JOHN 17:3). THE WORDS OF GOD THROUGH JESUS ARE FINAL AND CANNOT BE CHANGED. JESUS SPEAKS WHATSOEVER THE FATHER COMMANDS OF HIM (JOHN 12:48-50). THOSE WHO SAY JESUS IS GOD ARE GOING AGAINST GOD AND HIS WORDS THROUGH JESUS, AND THEY WILL DEAL WITH THE REVELATION (REVELATION 22:18-19).
Bro, a ripple went further then my boundaries, and I don’t like it. Obedience makes good men open doors that bad men walk through. Most important, love covers a multitude of sins. Agape, bro.
...about the homily, yeah man I know the destination, it’s the treading stagnate water that I get tired of.... but just know that that’s what I’ve been doing... and don’t be surprised if that’s what I continue to do in new water. I’ll try any but I am a slow learner. God save His Fatherhood and all of His children.
So the big decision is Priesthood or marriage?. Would be better if it were Priesthood or doctor, lawyer, teacher, engineer, rancher, farmer, chef....No wonder there is a shortage of Priests......
Of course there are certain ethical principles that are good to follow, mainly ecological principles for today, such as not driving a car and using trains and buses, buying only clothes that I will wear for a long time and rejecting the pressure of fast fashion (I am terribly unsuccessful at this), eating with regard to ethics, especially when it comes to meat and animal products (I try to eat a plant-based diet and refuse to eat cows and pigs because they are too intelligent and life on big farms must be suffering for them and no Christian is bothered by it, so weird. Muslims/Jews have strict rules for meat (halal/kashrut). But even avocados can be unethical, so one must choose carefully. Sometimes I feel that Christian rules are only about sex and they don't care about anything else in the world too much :D
Rubbish. From personal experience growing up in Catholic Church has taught me about everything. The 10 commandments is God's instructions on how to behave.

Basic human kindness is what Jesus showed me. It's all about how we treat each other. I can't remember ever getting instructions from the Church about sex. It was never mentioned. I learned from my parents.
wrong direction, yeah :) sometimes I feel that the whole thing is wrong and the very idea of a human mediator between God and people is crazy and the Jews or Muslims are ultimately right. Sometimes it lacks logic. but for now, where I am, there I am, what I pray, I pray. I can do the whole rosary and try adoration, but I have to turn off my critical thinking a little bit every time, why the trinity when only one God is enough, why some human image when no image is enough.
@@MrsAngelala sentimentality is not truth. I'm afraid I sometimes see trinity as Ptolemaic epicycles - too complicated, because wrong. Someone could find them beautiful, but they don't exist
You totally did it wrong. You used logic rather than spiritual hearing. Next time, stop and ask Christ (not El) which way to go then listen to your thoughts and intuition.

Man oh man 😂 you are the funnyest priest i have ever heard. I love that you use humor and personal strories that make God revelent and relatable. ❤🙏🏽
In Jesus name Amen ❤❤❤Thank you ❤
So many times, we worry about getting it wrong with God. This homily is a reminder that with God, every step matters, even that which seems wrong....
Father Mike I know I’m not alone in saying you have a gift. I learn and grow so very much from you 🎉 thank you
That being said, all glory and honor is Yours Almighty Father 🙏🙏

Thank you father! I'm in the season between the promise and the promised land (I never saw it that way), I was starting to lose heart and your sermon really helped me today to keep walking. God bless you!
I believe that Our Lord is preparing me for my future. I have to wait on the Lord. The Lord is a God of perfect timings.
How lovely to know I’m not the only one who lose themselves
Me too!😊

Morning
Father Mike, this has been a difficult year but your voice carrying out God's will has helped me through it. God bless!
Thanks!
I'm going to replay this a few more times in the coming days. I can't thank you enough Fr. Mike!
So fantastic!!! Thank you so much, Father Mike!!! 💙💙💙

Father I understand about being directionally challenged. the struggle is real
Thank you, Father. 🙏

Omg David: hey you are treating me like UberEats 😂
but it was everything, henceforth...
Do you have a message every week ? I'm looking for a good Christain podcast/devotion
If there is terror, is it time to dissociated yourself from them, about being multiracial or whatever,
We've been through this a few times,
I’ve had doctors tell me to slow down in speaking so why does Father get to speed speak?
Can you speak faster Father Mike?😅
But eould he still cheat me?
Hes so happy about loyalty, but eould he stab me in the back?
what happened to you, fr Mike?
I was just wondering the same! Looks sore! Take care Fr Mike hope you are not doing too much and not getting burned out❤️🙏
@d.o.6014
He explained at the beginning of Mass.
Its not what it is to be a friend so why would you exect the friendship?
Bro, a ripple went further then my boundaries, and I don’t like it. Obedience makes good men open doors that bad men walk through. Most important, love covers a multitude of sins. Agape, bro.

Sometimes it lacks logic. but for now, where I am, there I am, what I pray, I pray.

@@MrsAngelala sentimentality is not truth. I'm afraid I sometimes see trinity as Ptolemaic epicycles - too complicated, because wrong. Someone could find them beautiful, but they don't exist
he got punched in the eye
Father. U. Better. Go. To Confession. For
Lying. To. Us. 🤣
You totally did it wrong. You used logic rather than spiritual hearing.
Next time, stop and ask Christ (not El) which way to go then listen to your thoughts and intuition.
That inherent fear of making the wrong move is exactly why you need to figure out who El is and who he is not.
Having two gods is the same as having a split mind, a displaced heart, and a discordant path.
Aah was meshed with Heh to make Yah-weh, son of El. El was son of Uranus and Ge...although...I've found a more realistic origination point for him but I won't bother to go into that here.
Christ lived a life of sacrifice, giving, teaching, and proveying hope. He wasn't out doing war training in the field;, preparing to lop off heads and sling arrows into eyeballs for usurping rule and gaining land mass, smh. I mean, totally different means and end-point strategies happening here. The OT god is a warring bull who is garbed out in a beard, wings, and swings pendulant boobies.
I'm not sure how this is not viewed as a big deal to us as Catholic followers of Christ, smh.
I'm over here like, "seriously"?
Maybe we do live in a simulation and I'm stuck in a "I can't believe this crap" skin.
This is friggin' insane. I always used to worry that I might choose the wrong guy and accidently marry Satan like whoever that woman was my dad used to tell me stories about when I was little...but now I'm having to worry about my entire religion being half Satan, half Christ worshippers and not even knowing which side is which cause they're counted as one in the same, smh.
Thank you Father.🙏✝️
Amen🙏
Thanks!
