Have you done Bible in a Year John? If not, get at it! It was a jump start for me. Actually, I was an atheist for well over a decade, started BiY, and months later enrolled in RCIA, April had my first communion.
Heaven is rejoicing 💗 ! Be patient with yourself. Spend silent time in front of the Holy Eucharist , read the Holy Bible, but if you start to talk negatively to yourself- get up and help feed the homeless, clean your local church , volunteer 🙏🏼 You are not alone in this walk 💗 God bless
Struck by the idea that Jesus is a humble person. He just listens when I speak to Him. He is always interested in us. He is truth/honesty. He models gratitude in prayer to the Father. He is love. Praise His Holy, Humble Name!
Yes i take notes, too. Every monday i listen to several homilies of different priests in the internet on the Sunday gospel and take notes. Amazing to hear the richness of the gospel. Food for our soul indeed.
@@glennherron9499 because in his videos he gives you things you can really think about, so much that you could come back to it again and learn something else
@@veradux5580 Really? What I have learned over the past few months is that the catholic church claims to have been the only church in existence until the protestants broke away yet as the Apostles and Disciples criss crossed the regions they built thousands of churches proclaiming Jesus resurrected! In Acts they are first called Christians, not catholics. So Christian churches predate catholicism and has existed before, during, and after. The "protestant" movement happened when many realized that the catholic church was practicing false teachings, so many returned to Christianity. The catholic church claims they wrote the Bible, yet they proclaim that us "ordinary", "uneducated" aren't smart enough to interpret it! So apparently John 3:16 is is over our heads and so we can't read what's in the Bible, we have to have it explained to us at Mass. If the catholic church wrote the Bible, brag about writing the Bible, why don't they practice what's in the Bible? The catholic church teaches that's it's ok to have graven images. Odd that they refused to list that warning in their 10 Commandments but warn against wanting your neighbor's stuff! Jesus said there is but one Father, yet aren't we taught to call the priest "Father"? In scripture when Jesus was asked how we should pray He said, "Our Father....", not once did Jesus pray to anyone except God. The catholic church teaches us to pray to Mary and yet cannot provide scripture showing us that she was taken to heaven and isn't asleep in Christ like other Christians. They proclaim that Mary is a perpetual virgin, that she not once had relations with Joseph but in Matthew 1:25 we are told that Joseph waited until Mary had Jesus before he knew her, had relations with her. In Matthew 12:46 Jesus is told His mother and brothers are outside and He pointed to the believers in front of Him and said, "Here are My mother and brothers"! In Matthew 13:55-56 we are told that He is the son of Joseph, son of Mary, and it lists by name all of His brothers and even mentions that He has sisters! Three solid scriptures showing us Mary did not remain a virgin. Name on verse that tells us she remained a virgin... Yet the church would have you stop praying to God and pray to her! In scripture where are we told to pray to anyone except for God? In Matthew the catholic church teaches that when Jesus said "Peter, I will build My Church upon "this" rock" they explain it as Jesus is telling Peter since Peter means "rock" I am going to put all of My hopes on you to carry everything I am doing into the future. Nevermind in verse 23 Jesus destroys Peter and calls him, "Satan"! Nevermind that Peter denied Jesus three times! Nevermind that Paul chastized him for his false teachings! Nevermind that in all of Peter's writings he refers to Jesus the Rock, the Cornerstone! Not once mentioning that he (Peter) is the rock and that he is creating the catholic church. Scripture tells us there is one Mediator, Christ Jesus! The catholic church teaches us to pray to Mary, to the saints.,. On and on, verse after verse of scripture is ignored as church doctrine is pushed. Stop bragging about creating the Bible if you refuse to acknowledge what's in it. Stop demanding people don't read it and wait for your explanation of what's in it! The message of the cross is a simple one, Jesus came to be the Lamb of God, to endure the cross for our sins! The catholic church teaches doctrine that does it's best to make the gospel harder to understand so that the congregation will accept what's taught as the truth and give it more weight than actual scripture! How about instead of coming back to his videos again and again you take that time and read your Bible, again and again? Take that time on your knees praying to God, again and again?
I hear JPII had that super power, treated people as if they were the only other person in the world...in spite of all the people he met on a daily basis.
"Live in the eulogy virtue of humility. Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.. The mark of true humility is to just pay attention. To who? To someone who can't pay you back. Just pay attention and listen. Be honest. At the end of our lives, all we have left are the eulogy virtues." Thank you so much, Fr. Mike! God bless you and may you teach more people with humility, fun, honesty. 😊🙏
Eye contact in a conversation with your parents, spouse, children, friends, people you work with, grocery clerk, a homeless person is so important. It shows them they matter.
Thanks for another great homily Fr. Mike. I find myself to have always been humble and growing that when I was younger. I always wanted to give back and throughout my life I volunteered and ended up getting a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with my own practice. Now I can use my time to volunteer at the church and in my community. Jesus is lord and savior and has always been there to guide me. Even if I faltered, he gave me strength and I’m thankful everyday at the blessings he has given me. ❤
Great video, Fr Mike Schmitz! I found it really helpful :) So to be humble is to... 1. Be honest 2. Be grateful 3. Pay attention to others (think of yourself less and NOT less of yourself).
Coming back ? Start by going to a mass during week - and go again during the week - and again and see where the Holy Spirit leads you next. Sunday Mass was overwhelming at my return after 30 years, but dipping my toes for awhile at the smaller masses during the week, I felt God/Jesus/Holy Spirit giving me direction or inspiration. Don’t give up. Don’t stay outside the restaurant reading the menu, come inside and eventually enjoy the banquet and feast again with Our Lord in Holy Communion.
Fr. Mike Thanks for your teaching Humility is a work in progress for many of us. I hope to remember and live the words always Pay attention to the person in front of me . 🙏🙏
Wow!! I am 70 years old and I learned so much from this homily on how to be humble. I am a retired social worker so I am a good listener but I lack something……….I am resentful when it is not reciprocated…….thank you, Father….. you always say it perfectly…..
My Father, now in Coma, gave to much attention even won’t asked for, he made it know with music chosen or each individual, now we each pretty much remember how he would play it over and over the whole day for the individual. People take elders for granted while alive until it’s no longer there. A Father, a grandfather, a friend, a businessman, a. Brother always making the time to say “Hello, is there anything you need” to his kids. He was the perfect sample and teacher to humility. He gave the little retirement $ to help as much he could for others needs, he just wanted to help even though he was left broke and nothing to eat.
Another great lesson. Thank you Fr. Mark. References about humility were enlightening. Real world applications resonate between my ears well. Rick Warren is quite a warrior. Attention is a basic form of love, so true!
"The person who thinks of themselves less is free to pay attention to whoever is in front of them." I absolutely love this. I realized the same about the gift of being present by being free of unnecessary distractions. Thank you Fr. Mike Always be humble, gentle, and patient, bearing with one another in love. Ephesians 4:2
This teaching on Humility! I have 3 books on Humility, and I still struggle! I love Fr. Dubay. He was wonderful. Thx for sharing the story about him. Oh, and I owned a nordatrack MANY years ago. 😂
I woke up with this parable of Jesus on my mind! Every single person has value and a story. We have to look for opportunities to listen and guess what? We are the ones who will be blessed.
Thank you father, your talk helps me a lot to keep praying for humility among my continuous prayers . I’ll keep that in mind (pay attention! Pay attention!)
Thank you so much for this.. I have had it all wrong. Or more so, I had the definition of Humility, but not the whole thing. I struggle with self image, and I used to be so bad that it literally caused me physical pain to be complimented. Back in High School through my young adulthood. Thank God, he sent me people that helped me get over that. Even with that help I was still missing understanding of true humility. I was still struggling with that self image... Until now. After all these years I finally heard what makes perfect sense. Thank you Father Mike. Because you are right, the other way.. the way I was doing it was not it. No wonder I still felt lost. I have truly taken this to heart.. Thank you. God Bless you and all your Works. Viva Cristo Rey
After 51 years away from my French Catholic 18 years of Schooling, I am in the process of seeing if I belong to this church, again. I am a recent widow of a non Catholic atheist.

Definitely needed this today! First day in New York City and it’s been overwhelming to say the least. It’s so funny how a homily about humility brightens my spirit more than anything else all day!

Amen. Such are the folks who are like sheep dogs in the Military, First Reaponder, and Law Enforcement communities. It is a nobel profession to guard the Shepherd's sheep.
Humility is knowing and acknowledging our shortcomings. Humility is knowing that God is our creator and we are His creation. We don't have anything that we didn't receive. The seeds of yesterday is the fruit of today. The seeds of today is the fruit of tomorrow.🙏❤😊
I really, really like this video Father Mike Schmitz! Please don't misunderstand me I like all the videos that you do! But this video gave me a whole new prospective! It helped see things differently! I totally agree with what you said about humility! You explained everything so well! Thank you for that! Thank you for all that you do! Thank you to the people who help you make the videos! May God bless you all!
I know that I am nothing without God. I can not do anything without His grace and strength. And so through prayers, fasting and praise! Eventhough I am not very good at those. 🥲
What a wonderful homily Fr Mike. I really needed to hear this and it helps me understand my late husband better. He was a truly humble man, a St Joseph kind of man whom I would get up and do things while listening to him and it would upset him even though I could repeat everything he said. I believe that our "undivided attention and our time" is something quite valuable. I need to do more this. Holy Spirit, help me be a better listener.
Thank you Father Mike for your yes to God’s calling - you have been His voice in my ears… I started a new phase in my (humble) journey. Thank you for so many of your insights and questions… I ask our Amado (😊) Jesus to guide and protect you today and always! (And your team!) 🙏
Many years ago, I had the privilege to meet Fr. Joe Martin (of "Chalk Talk" fame). He put it this way: the reason most of us like to visit grandma is because it is likely that she is a "You" person. What would You like to do; what would You like for dinner; what is Your favorite desert; etc . Grandma is all about You! If you want to be complimented for being a wonderful conversationalist, develop your listening skills.
Your grandma sounds like my late mom. Shes so loved and still missed by us and all who knew and felt loved by her warmth, giving and loving nature. God bless her soul and all who worship God our Creator Abba Father and honor Mother Mary our Queen and Mother and all The Heavenly's in Jesus Christ Mighty all Powerful Name Amen. Luke1vs26-38. John3vs16,17,... God is Good, Love and Awesome. 🙏❤️
This is so strange as when I prayed last week the Holy Spirit clearly said to me humility. I pondered about this and then your u tube channel came into my sighting. God is always there we just need to remember to have our quiet 🤫 time and shut out all the turmoil in this wicked world.
*Dear Father Mike, thanks for your passionate preaching. Kindly note , humility can be tested by humiliation. When one can accept a humiliation and could easily get over it, and try to forgive as well love the one who humiliated him, ....at least with a small prayer, then we can smell the blossoming of humility.* Another aspect as you said is being approachable. Considering a person is in a big position, always busy and wears an aura of.... sort of celebrity status speciality in a field -( maybe we can take you as an example Fr.) If another stranger, a nondescript one ,could easily approach him for anything......without appointments or passing through so many protocols and procedures, .....that shows the presence of humility in that big shot person , who is in fact trying to be humble. Thanks Father. God bless you 🙏

Here is a definition of humility I learned in high school: “you know better than me therefore you are in control”. This contradicts pride by saying “I know better than you therefore I’m in control”.
Time is valuable, and when we take the time to pay attention to someone to listen to what they have to say or share, we might learn something new, or seeing their adventures through their eyes, and be amazed of their accomplishments.
Humility is asking God for the “Grace” to run your race and know your place ….we live for the Glory of Jesus Christ and the Mercy God has shown us in Him ❤
Thank you Father Mike. I will work on that more for sure! There are times where I do that, but then I get distracted like “So when is it gonna be my turn to speak?” So that’s a challenge to keep doing this. Thank you for the reminder 🙏🏽
@17:57 "Humility is not thinking less of yourself; it's thinking of yourself less."
Thank you Fr. Mike. Words of wisdom.
I am SUPER impressed that Father Mike quoted Rick Warren.

Your in a great spot right now, Fr. Mike is a great preacher! Go to confession. Then go to Mass. And Pray, Pray, Pray. 🙏

Of course he listens. It's getting him (or anyone else dead) to talk back, that's the trick.
"She held her ideal weight until the very end!" Bless you, Fr Mike, for helping us keep our eyes on the correct goal!
But this made me laugh!!
Laughed but REAL trap to be aware for women of this world!
🤣
this right here made me bust out laughing
As the kids in ballet schools say, "live fast, die young, leave a pretty corpse."
I listened to this 4 times and took notes to ponder further into this week. Great homily! Thanks for sharing it. 🙏🕊😇
Me too.
Yeah, Father Mike has a way of jam packing messages between the messages. I find I have to often listen at least twice.🙏🏻🙏🏻
Yes i take notes, too. Every monday i listen to several homilies of different priests in the internet on the Sunday gospel and take notes. Amazing to hear the richness of the gospel. Food for our soul indeed.

I agree , I actually sit in mass and think of Father Mikes words , I know I have to not do this, but my mind wanders
I am not religious. This brought tears to my eyes
If you can truly say sorry when you hurt others you are humble.
When you listen to someone you’ll see their eyes start to light up as they realize your listening. Especially the children.
I hear JPII had that super power, treated people as if they were the only other person in the world...in spite of all the people he met on a daily basis.

Great video, Fr Mike Schmitz! I found it really helpful :)
So to be humble is to...
1. Be honest
2. Be grateful
3. Pay attention to others (think of yourself less and NOT less of yourself).
Something so simple yet so many times we get it wrong. I get it wrong. Thank you...
Being humble is willing to acknowledge the truth about one’s self.

Fr. Mike you are gift to this world. Thanks for reminding me of how much God loves me and why I can find joy in every situation. God bless you!
Thank you Father Mike 🙏😇 for your passion for loving us so much I have to pray more for you your so precious Father keep feeding us God bless you
Best definition I have heard defining Humility.
I know that I am nothing without God. I can not do anything without His grace and strength. And so through prayers, fasting and praise! Eventhough I am not very good at those. 🥲
I really enjoyed your homily on humility. ❤
God Bless!
Thank you Fr Mike! I payed attention to what u said and will hopefully focus on others better now!
A great saint once said: To walk in humility is to journey in the truth.
Who is that saint?
@@commonsensecatholics I think it was St Therese of Lisieux, but I am not certain of that.
Thank you Father.
I learned a lot .
Blessings
This is so powerful . Thank you for all your lovely clarifications
Especially give God attention. God deserves our praise thanks, love and time...
Prayer and read your Bible every single day!
What a wonderful homily Fr Mike. I really needed to hear this and it helps me understand my late husband better. He was a truly humble man, a St Joseph kind of man whom I would get up and do things while listening to him and it would upset him even though I could repeat everything he said. I believe that our "undivided attention and our time" is something quite valuable. I need to do more this. Holy Spirit, help me be a better listener.
I can't wait to have idle time to listen to my family. Love you Fr. Mike
Fantastic! Never described a sermon as "fantastic" before - but this one is! Thank you, Father Mike!
Thank you Father Mike for your words inspired by the God.
Thank you Father Mike for your yes to God’s calling - you have been His voice in my ears…
I started a new phase in my (humble) journey. Thank you for so many of your insights and questions… I ask our Amado (😊) Jesus to guide and protect you today and always! (And your team!)
🙏
Many years ago, I had the privilege to meet Fr. Joe Martin (of "Chalk Talk" fame). He put it this way: the reason most of us like to visit grandma is because it is likely that she is a "You" person. What would You like to do; what would You like for dinner; what is Your favorite desert; etc . Grandma is all about You!
If you want to be complimented for being a wonderful conversationalist, develop your listening skills.
Your grandma sounds like my late mom. Shes so loved and still missed by us and all who knew and felt loved by her warmth, giving and loving nature. God bless her soul and all who worship God our Creator Abba Father and honor Mother Mary our Queen and Mother and all The Heavenly's in Jesus Christ Mighty all Powerful Name Amen. Luke1vs26-38. John3vs16,17,... God is Good, Love and Awesome. 🙏❤️
Amen. Thank you Father Mike. Caring for others and thinking more for their needs and greeting them with unconditional love.
This is so strange as when I prayed last week the Holy Spirit clearly said to me humility. I pondered about this and then your u tube channel came into my sighting. God is always there we just need to remember to have our quiet 🤫 time and shut out all the turmoil in this wicked world.
I love you, Father Mike.
Love this Fr Mike ❤ May the Holy Spirit continue to strengthen and encourage you ❤️ 🙏 🙌
Wonderful, yes there's a veryyyy good reason Catholics used to spend time contemplating the four last things ✝️🔥
*Dear Father Mike, thanks for your passionate preaching. Kindly note , humility can be tested by humiliation. When one can accept a humiliation and could easily get over it, and try to forgive as well love the one who humiliated him, ....at least with a small prayer, then we can smell the blossoming of humility.*
Another aspect as you said is being approachable. Considering a person is in a big position, always busy and wears an aura of.... sort of celebrity status speciality in a field -( maybe we can take you as an example Fr.) If another stranger, a nondescript one ,could easily approach him for anything......without appointments or passing through so many protocols and procedures, .....that shows the presence of humility in that big shot person , who is in fact trying to be humble.
Thanks Father. God bless you 🙏
Thank you Father, God bless you
Whoa. What a powerful message “ She maintained her ideal weight” I feel called out …in a good way ❤️🙏❤️
Great Homily Coach Padre !
😆 Your on point ☝️
That’s why good moms are always humble 🥹
Catholicism today needs to offer guidance and strength to victims of narcissists.
Thankyou Fr Mike,,what a great lesson for us all amid so many distractions
HERE is Our Savior
YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins, NOT jesus, and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Semitic Scroll:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3)
Ancient Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
Here is a definition of humility I learned in high school: “you know better than me therefore you are in control”. This contradicts pride by saying “I know better than you therefore I’m in control”.
Oh thats so true, thank you for that
I really liked hearing this. Thank You.
Left me crying!😭😭😭
Thank you brother Fr. Mike!
Lord have mercy 🙏🏼👍🏻🌸
Time is valuable, and when we take the time to pay attention to someone to listen to what they have to say or share, we might learn something new, or seeing their adventures through their eyes, and be amazed of their accomplishments.
Thanks, Father Mark.
I enjoy watching you and listening to your good advice.
Your words are so meaningful to me. 😊
preach!!! false humility vs true humility. thank you for speaking the truth, father mike!
This is the best explanation on humility I have ever heard. Father Mike your amazing! God definitely speaks through you. 💜 ✝️
Humility is asking God for the “Grace” to run your race and know your place ….we live for the Glory of Jesus Christ and the Mercy God has shown us in Him ❤
🙏🏻🕊❤️🔥Thank you dear Father❤️🔥🕊🙏🏻that is one beautiful talk on humility, this helps me so much!
+may Jesus bless you and make you holy+
Wow
God help us be humble. It's so simple and liberating
Thank you Father Mike. I will work on that more for sure! There are times where I do that, but then I get distracted like “So when is it gonna be my turn to speak?” So that’s a challenge to keep doing this. Thank you for the reminder 🙏🏽
Thank you, Father. Please pray for me to live humbly.
