Trust and Surrender: CarmelCast Episode 7

Our lives are often clouded with anxiety, frustration, and shame. Despite these difficulties, the saints were able to surrender to God's will and abandon themselves into His loving arms. Like them, we must accept the words of Jesus, "Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid." (John 14:27). But how? In this episode, we explore the themes of trust and surrender under the guidance of Saint Thérèse and the other Carmelite saints.

I love this, " He knows all things. He can do all things and He loves me". Thank you.

I love the way you open every episode: “Praised be Jesus Christ! “ Perfect!

Ah music to my soul! The Little Flower is my beloved Saint. She choose me while I was searching for a Confirmation Saint decades ago. I am I believe being called to Carmel. For God's Glory and my Sanctification. Thanks for helping me to understand that surrender is a grace from God. Blessings

2/1/24 TY, Carmelites, for these series. The explanation of the great saints are simple, sincere and understandable. Plz consider a series on the origins of Carmelites.

Finally I heard with clarity what I always believed, presented better than I encountered before. Maybe I was not ready before to hear it so well.

Palm Sunday; 2021, the Lord brought me here: Beautiful!!

[@annmarievalenti9264]

Thank you for all your wonderful nourishment. I liked these topics at this time with a difficult person, that God knows all as its for preparation, as well as chronic illness. Very well put together. God bless you 🙏🏻

[@annmarievalenti9264]

Loves to hear how to let go of betrayal. Jesus felt betrayed. It hurts so terribly over & over that it interferes staying focused with Jesus. My brain goes back & forth during adoration. It is frustrating. I know only God can make things right, yet it still creeps in.

Thank you for the spiritual gifts you have bestowed upon us with these Carmel Casts. I have derived much fruit from them and intend to watch them over again. Praying you will be able to bring us more of these, so helpful on the spiritual journey. For the future ones, there are so many wonderful topics; Mary, Joseph, our Carmelite saints, Carmelite spirituality in the secular world, and we can never hear too much about prayer. I am in formation in a secular Carmelite community, I think these podcasts could be used for Conferences (we, like many communities, are without a friar for the time being), I think you may want to make sure Presidents of the secular communities are aware of these treasures. May God bless you and return the gifts you have shared. Prayers for you and all the Carmelite friars and your ministry.

Beautiful! And the way you end with a reading from a carmelite saint, st Therese of Lisieux. God bless you.

[@ICSPublications]

Thank you. God bless you too!

Mary had to stand at the foot of the cross like Eve stood at the tree. This year when we are shut out of Easter liturgy and sacraments by the diabolic, I only have hope in the fact that Dismas, who didn't have the sacraments but believed in his suffering, is in Paradise. Thanks.

I’m late to the podcast. But I love it so much. I’m getting all caught up! Keep going ❤️

[@mikebohemia1947]

Thanks. This had a profound effect on me. God bless you both.

Magnificent!

[@jeffseng6385]

I really love Big T and Little t. That last two sentences in the closing comment are a great meditation. Thank you brothers!

[@AlejandroGarcia-ek3uy]

I can relate to what they are saying from my own experience.

[@christinewolfteigen7581]

Love this

Happy Feast today, July 4th, to Br. Pier Giorgio on the Feast Day of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati.

[@anitaeubanks5978]

Thank you so much for these CarmelCasts. They have brought a lot of encouragement and spiritual joy to my husband and myself and we look forward to them every Wednesday. Please do more! God bless you both

[@jen1963]

Definitely needed to hear that we can have peace with our intellect but may not have peace with our will. That explains so much of my current situation. Thank you, Brothers.

[@cathryndarcy6447]

Thank you for the very spiritual and comforting journey that the Carmelcast provided. God Bless you both and Happy Easter!

[@conniekriewaldt6373]
