Heather, your honesty and vulnerability is so humbling. You are such a beautiful wife and mother💐. May the good St. Joseph protect your marriage. For everyone else, GO TO ST. JOSEPH, he is awesome! 🙏
Wow. I immediately said “thank you Jesus” when you started your video saying “this video is going to be about marriage”. Thank you so much for being so vulnerable about this subject. Lord knows how much I needed to hear this! This was beautifully said. Thank you thank you thank you ❤
I think it’s difficult in marriages where one spouse, husband or wife, is trying to be true to their faith when the other is not and may be pulling them in the wrong direction. It really puts a strain on the person. I think St Rita also had a difficult marriage but he converted in the end I believe. Thank you for this video.
I am not currently married, but this is still good to hear! I am trying to get back into my Catholic faith (baptised Catholic here, I wasn't practicing for a long time, I am ashamed a little, but glad to be back).
Wow! I am new to your channel and also new to going to Catholic Church I've only been Baptize as a Catholic but I wasn't introduced to the religion. Crazy how I was looking for videos about this and praying to God on this subject and here you go posting this video! Thank you very much
I would recommend all viewers to watch videos by Bishop Barren and The Word on Fire Ministry; they will teach you all you need to know about our Catholic faith starting with the basics. I guarantee you will love those videos too!
Before I came back to the Catholic Church, about a decade ago God was pulling on my heart. My husband and I weren’t in the best place. Our marriage was “okay” but not ideal. I didn’t like how we treated each other with such disregard. Something turned within my heart and I remember thinking that I needed to treat him better. Needed to talk to him nicer and not talk down to him. Encourage him and let him know daily how much I love him. It turned our marriage around. It wasn’t an instant thing, but I noticed that as I kept working at it, he was also changing toward me. He started to tell me he loved me more, began encouraging me and being a rock when I needed him. It’s amazing what happens when you listen to that still small voice and make changes in your life. We are in such a great place now.
I needed to hear this. I've been married 50 years, three adult children who came late, two adopted, one homegrown and one georgous grandson. We've had a rough time in the recent past and yes I have felt like leaving but you have given me some tips thank you and God bless .
Heather the Holy Spirit definitely spoke thru you. It is so refreshing to listen to a young woman so dedicated to serving in this ministry while tending to your family As an elder couple (God willing 59 yrs this yr in July) it gives us hope for our 4 children who ate away from the church. God continue to bless you (and your family) as you reach out and help others 🙏🕊 Judy/Bob 🌞
I needed this . Yesterday my husband and I went to confession for the first time after three years I cried and promised myself to honor him, respect him and appreciate him . Hoping we put god first within our marriage 🙏🏼
I am practicing Catholic. My wife got married 2006 . Catholic Church. I left the Catholic Church .even though my wife did not like it when I left the Catholic Church, we stayed married .I we t to another church .before, I did not know the Catholic Church believed even though I had the classes .I am returning Catholic. I did all my confessions .I have been going to mass every Sunday, and holy days, I go to mass .I been taken holy Communion. Even though I did all my confessions, my wife would not come to mass. It was my fault. Regardless, I let my wife do what she wants she stays home, and I go to mass .I think in time she would come together to mass .every sunday is she my wife is sleeping in stayed home .I go to mass by myself .
I'm Catholic and my husband is Anglican but we have always felt our holy commitment to marriage, despite our slightly different faith systems. Next week will be our 36th wedding anniversary. We've had lots of ups and downs but it feels so wonderful to be in a relationship with someone committed to the stability and sanctity of marriage and our two adult children often remark on it.
Thank you for reminding me why I love the Catholic faith and how to build a beautiful marriage. I feel blessed to find and hear this beautiful presentation. Please pray for us as your followers.
Love this! So helpful. Admit we all divorce our husbands in our minds sometimes 😂😂😂 🤦♀️ Another reason why I love Catholicism, it’s taught me what marriage really is supposed to be. We choose love over more brokenness. ❤
Talk to a priest and a Christian therapist to get help. I was told by my former priest in confession to talk to someone including a therapist for my ongoing mental health and addiction. It’s never to late to turn your life around every day, to pray for forgiveness, find happiness in life and having self-care. Thanks, Heather. I enjoy your videos all the time. God bless. ❤
Marriage is hard work and constant forgiveness. This is our way to holiness. Monthly confessions helps very much. Thanks God we celebrated 45th wedding anniversary of our marriage last year.
It is amazing to me how every time I’m going through a situation I pray to God about it and then I look up a video on UA-cam and he always takes me to wonderful people like yourself who literally say everything I needed to hear at the moment❤ thank you and God bless you and your marriage
Beautiful video Heather. Thank you for this. I definitely feel like I am being attacked spiritually with thoughts against my marriage. I literally had that moment today when I had to snap out of my thinking and be like “NO”. I can’t speak for every woman but it seems like women in general are prone to feeling like a victim in many situations within marriage. It’s tough. It’s easy to feel isolated and alone, especially as a stay at home mother. One thing that helps me is to remember that I am not alone. We are all in this together, helping to raise and form young minds and hearts. God bless everyone here. Keep God close and He will guide you.
Sometimes I forget that my job as my husband’s wife is to help him (and myself) get to heaven. Thank you for the reminder. My goodness at 11:58 I got soo emotional. God bless you for this message
Heather, I am a Catholic Christian and a marriage and family therapist and your video can not be improved upon. Wow! It was exactly what we as couples need to hear! You and your channel are STELLAR in knowledge, compassion and reflecting Our Lord. Thank you, Deirdre
Marriage is a vocation just like priesthood is a vocation. Feelings are a choice. We have to make a choice to be happy. I have been with my husband 32 years and I am more in love with him today than I was 10 year's ago. Yes we get annoyed and frustrated but go pray on it ask for guidance and then sit down and communicate with your spouse. St Rita is my favorite saint. She had issues in her marriage but she got through it and that gives me hope.
Thank you, this is a very beautiful video. My husband and I have been married for 28 years. The date night is a must if you can go do it at least once a month. We go to the grocery store and buy our favorite sandwiches, drink, and side dish. Then we go to the beach and sit in our car and eat after a walk on the beach. It is the best time ever!!! I love your beautiful video on marriage. It is so difficult nowadays. I have been there many times I want to leave but I stay. I look back now on the times I wanted to leave and it was a difficult phase in our lives and the devil is trying to hard. God and love always wins!
Thank you so much for this video. I’m watching this as a Catholic girlfriend and what I have to say is that the Bible says that He who finds a wife finds a good thing. Sometimes when praying for my future husband I think I’m doing too much but that’s the enemy! We need to pray for our future husbands.
This is by far the best message I’ve heard on marriage and our part as a wife!! Thank you. The minister who married us told us that “two imperfect people don’t make a perfect marriage”. He also said that the husband is to meet his wife’s needs and the wife to meet her husband’s needs and then both partners needs are met. (That is selfless love and humility in action). Feelings are fleeting. My friends sister filed for divorce to the surprise of her family. Her sister asked her why. She said, “he just gets on my nerves”. She responded, “if that was a reason, everyone would be divorced!” Thank you for speaking truth and in such a respectful way. God bless you!
You speak the truth. Thank you so much Heather. I wish someone had told me this. No one ever did try to help us, my husband and I. No one from our family or friends. I cannot understand why no one tried to helped us, not even in a little way, so that we would stay together. My husband and I went to therapy but no one catholic. Our children, and we ourselves, have suffered immensely because of our divorce. It is still painful. Ever since then (25 years ago) I have always tried to speak to others to stay together. This was even before I became catholic. I converted 4,5 years ago. God permitted all of this. I pray I do His will always and my ex husband and I can get Gods help to repair from the deep suffering we all have gone through. The suffering has been like I could imagine Hell is for real. To all of you who are married and to those of you who have marriage to look forward to, find yourselves very blessed to encounter Heathers words and be encouraged by them and never allow the Evil one to get in between you and your husband and family. God bless you and your husband Heather and your children. ❤🙏
This has been on my heart lately as well as I am seeing marriages around me ending because people have bought into the lies of Satan in our culture. As a working outside the home wife and mom I am really trying to pray for understanding when it comes to being obedient to my husband. Thank you for the bravery to put out this video in a time where we here that it is OK to be selfish and do what feels good in the moment.
Thank you Heather for your honesty. You are exactly right, it is spiritual warfare! After 40 yrs of knowing each other and 33 yrs of marriage full of ups and down, there’s always something pulling at us of our attention. Keeping the focus on God by prayer, going to Mass and confession, & being an example gives me the strength. My husband doesn’t always do what I would like for him to do as a Catholic, but we both have our own journey in faith. With love, respect, and faithfulness to each other, we are reminded that “With God, nothing is impossible.”❤️
My husband and I have been married almost 30 years, and he hadn't gone to Mass for years when we first met and for the first few years of our marriage. He now attends Mass every week, prays the Rosary every day, and went to confession recently for the first time in 35 years. I never, ever nagged him but, instead, prayed for him. Thank you for your beautiful videos ❤.
I love this. My hubby and I just had our 30th anniversary. He became Catholic around year 7 of our marriage. He is one of the most devout Catholics I've ever seen. He also prays the rosary daily and loves our faith. I never once pushed him, just prayed for him and the Holy Spirit did the rest! God bless you ❤
My high school sweetheart and I have been married for 34 yrs. If you're going to marry someone, you better be serious about it (divorce should never be your backup). There have been a few times when I have thought he was selfish, and I thought about leaving after some big arguments. After I calmed down each time, I realized how much I really wanted him to come home safe after work and how he really was a good man, and therefore, realized how much I really loved him. No one knows us like we do. Marriage is not easy, but it is worth the work (& it's really not that much work after some years). You start to see the little things he does to show how much he cares about you, like washing your car or starting it for you when it's very cold. Men have their ways to show love, and so do women. They aren't necessarily the same. We have friends who gave up on their marriages and have regretted it. Grass is usually not greener on the other side.
Thank you for your inspiration, I found your channel when my husband leave the house, thanks God and his mercy he is back, I still praying for him, I am in a Catholic group to pray for conversion and for the husband JSMYF that is the name, We know that even the husband dont want to save the marriage, God's Plans are differents, Regards
Refreshing to finally see a Catholic woman talking about marriage in the way God intended. Thank you for this! You might get some hate but you are 100% right.
Thank you for this video Heather! I appreciate your content so much. This video was especially valuable and relatable. Especially the piece of wisdom about how doubts/hard times in marriage is spiritual warfare-that makes total sense! Thank you for the work you do 💗
Well done Heather. Much needed video. I would have saved myself so much of misery if I had this word presented to me 3 years ago. God bless you. Content idea : please could you guide us/ me on how carry the burden of not being a financial contributor to my home. I am a stay at home mum and I know that it is my calling My husband is amazing, he never complains about the burden of financial provision but I see the stress. It hurts me to know that I am no longer helping financially but being a stay at home mum truly is the joy of my heart
Such a great video, thank you! I have been having difficulties in my marriage and am going down the road of conversion from Anglican to Catholicism so this is great to serve as a reminder to preserve my marriage as much as possible.
Thank you for this and very timely video as I was just reading Three to Get Married. Also, not what I expected by the title but better as it was what I and everyone needs to hear, especially these days when marriage has not been a popular option.
What a gift you bring to the world. You are as beautiful on the inside as the outside. May God continue to bless you in your ministry and always give you the courage to speak His truth so eloquently.
God bless you, for this video. The topic is great, and it will help many people. God is using you, to do this. God bless you, again and again. I am so touched by what you r saying, and thanks again. 🙏🥰👍❤️⭐️💫👏✨🌟✝️
Thank you for this. I needed this. Please don’t stop doing videos like this. You are so right that marriage is under spiritual attack. Thank you for all you do
Thank you so much for this video's message. I've entered a hard time in my marriage, but there's still so much love between us. Knowing my husband is my path to sanctity truly helps my heart and spirit so much.
Dear Heather (I’m the one that NEVER comments and here I am commenting on one of your vídeos AGAIN 😅) This was such a blessing! You are very brave and the Holy Spirit does work through you in a wonderful way!!! God bless you and your husband and kids!!!❤ Please pray for us!!💪🙏🏼
Thank you for this!! This is my life and it's so challenging, especially with the nuances of being a wife and staying out of sin when your "head" is strongly opposed to anything Catholic or even recognizing sin. And thank you for PRACTICAL advice on affirming a husband. Side note, because I LOVE her story, Elizabeth Leseur's husband even went on to become Fulton Sheen's spiritual advisor. 🤯 He diary is all about sacrificial suffering and she offered up all her pains and even then illness that took her life to God for her intentions (especially her husband's conversion).
This is really great, Heather. I have a copy if Elizabeth Leseur’s diary, and I couldn’t agree with you more on these points. Thank you for your honesty about the fight with your husband. I pray this helps young wives who are struggling with society telling them to leave their husbands.
For the longest time I wanted to be the center of attention and wanted to be loved. I was thinking about me and my needs but never considered my husband's needs or what he wanted out of the marriage. The realization hit me a few months ago that I have been selfish and have started making amends and seeing him and our marriage from a different perspective
Amazing reminders and perspective! Thank you so much for covering this topic, I feel like it was perfect timing and just what I needed to hear this morning. I so appreciate you and your wisdom.
❤ from 🇱🇰 . Every word so true. So hard but so true. It works. In fact the only thing that will work in a hard marriage is your 50%. But God is moving the pieces and in control all the time. Love every word. You are so in tune with Holy spirit. Thanks so much.
Thank you for reaffirming some practices that I need to stick to and to also be light hearted. I often resent and feel angry. Thank you for sharing this and also connecting to the Saints.
First of all, you have a beautiful shirt/dress and look Gorgeous and full of Joy! Thank you for sharing this video. I appreciate the reminder that there are saints who did not have husbands who had faith in God. There are other women who prayed for their husbands and the conversation happened in God's time. . perhaps not the timing they had hoped for. May the Lord bless and keep you and your husband, prayers 🙏
This video is just so beautiful and perfect!!! Thanks thanks thanks, you can't imagine how much I needed this in this period. It's one of my favorite at all! Thanks a lot dear Heather ❤️
Heather, your honesty and vulnerability is so humbling. You are such a beautiful wife and mother💐. May the good St. Joseph protect your marriage.
For everyone else, GO TO ST. JOSEPH, he is awesome! 🙏

Thank you for this and very timely video as I was just reading Three to Get Married. Also, not what I expected by the title but better as it was what I and everyone needs to hear, especially these days when marriage has not been a popular option.
What a gift you bring to the world. You are as beautiful on the inside as the outside. May God continue to bless you in your ministry and always give you the courage to speak His truth so eloquently.
What a beautiful video! Your mother and mother~in~law give me great hope!🙂✝️
Thank you for this video. I really needed this
God bless you for your gentle, but true words of love!! Your best video to date in my opinion! Thank you!!
God bless you, for this video.
The topic is great, and it will help many people.
God is using you, to do this.
God bless you, again and again.
I am so touched by what you r saying, and thanks again. 🙏🥰👍❤️⭐️💫👏✨🌟✝️
More marriage advice from you, please! ❤❤
Best best best video everrrr!!! Thank You Jesus for speaking thru beautiful Heather. This was a total inspiration. Thank you sooo much!!
Thank you for this. I needed this. Please don’t stop doing videos like this. You are so right that marriage is under spiritual attack. Thank you for all you do
I like how you turned around and the did the opposite of leaving to Minnesota. Inspiring 🙏
Thank you so much for this video's message. I've entered a hard time in my marriage, but there's still so much love between us. Knowing my husband is my path to sanctity truly helps my heart and spirit so much.
Dear Heather (I’m the one that NEVER comments and here I am commenting on one of your vídeos AGAIN 😅)
This was such a blessing! You are very brave and the Holy Spirit does work through you in a wonderful way!!!
God bless you and your husband and kids!!!❤
Please pray for us!!💪🙏🏼
Beautiful! The Saint you reference is Servant of God Elisabeth LeSeur- her story is amazing.
Just wow. Im new to your channel i really need to hear this it was like slap on my face wich i need it thank you so much blessings.
Thank you, Heather. I appreciate your honesty and vulnerability in this video. I really needed to hear everything you said.
I just came across this video and it’s exactly what I needed with what I’m going through right now 😭
Wonderful advice, Heather! Thank you for sharing.🙏✝️💟🕊️🎆
As a wife who has been married 31 years, these are good reminders
I am considering converting to Catholicism but my wife wants to remain Protestant. Thank you for this video. God bless.
One of your best videos, Heather. Thank you. ❤
Thank you for this!! This is my life and it's so challenging, especially with the nuances of being a wife and staying out of sin when your "head" is strongly opposed to anything Catholic or even recognizing sin. And thank you for PRACTICAL advice on affirming a husband.
Side note, because I LOVE her story, Elizabeth Leseur's husband even went on to become Fulton Sheen's spiritual advisor. 🤯 He diary is all about sacrificial suffering and she offered up all her pains and even then illness that took her life to God for her intentions (especially her husband's conversion).
Excellent insights, thank you Heather! 🙏❤️
This video is very timely! You have no idea how many people you are helping, Heather. The Holy Spirit is working through you!
I want to say THANK YOU! I needed to hear this today ❤
Heather, I love your heart, it is so good. Thank you for correcting that it was Peter not John. God bless you and your family always
Thank you so much for this. I am struggling so much with prayer.
This was lovely, Heather! Will offer up my rosary today for you and your husband. God bless!
This is really great, Heather. I have a copy if Elizabeth Leseur’s diary, and I couldn’t agree with you more on these points. Thank you for your honesty about the fight with your husband. I pray this helps young wives who are struggling with society telling them to leave their husbands.
Wow, you're magnificent. Thank you for this amazing video. Best regards from Poland ❤🇵🇱
ONE of THE BEST VIDEOS here on UA-cam EVER MADE ❤🎉THANK YOU
Thank You ❤ it’s beautiful. I needed to hear this today..May God bless you ❤️ and your family.
Beautiful! Thank you! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I loved this ❤️ thank you!
For the longest time I wanted to be the center of attention and wanted to be loved. I was thinking about me and my needs but never considered my husband's needs or what he wanted out of the marriage. The realization hit me a few months ago that I have been selfish and have started making amends and seeing him and our marriage from a different perspective
Thank you for sharing this & encouraging others.
I appreciate you keeping us company !
Wonderful and so insightful. Thank you!
Amazing reminders and perspective! Thank you so much for covering this topic, I feel like it was perfect timing and just what I needed to hear this morning. I so appreciate you and your wisdom.
❤ from 🇱🇰 . Every word so true. So hard but so true. It works. In fact the only thing that will work in a hard marriage is your 50%. But God is moving the pieces and in control all the time. Love every word. You are so in tune with Holy spirit. Thanks so much.
Thank you for reaffirming some practices that I need to stick to and to also be light hearted. I often resent and feel angry. Thank you for sharing this and also connecting to the Saints.
Thank you for doing this video, it was so nice to hear this.
Thank you Heather ❤️ your words and encouragement are not gone unheard.
So needed for our culture. Thank you.
First of all, you have a beautiful shirt/dress and look Gorgeous and full of Joy!
Thank you for sharing this video. I appreciate the reminder that there are saints who did not have husbands who had faith in God. There are other women who prayed for their husbands and the conversation happened in God's time. . perhaps not the timing they had hoped for.
May the Lord bless and keep you and your husband, prayers 🙏
Thank you for doing what you do ❤ what a great video. God bless you!
Awesome recommendations !Thank you !

This video is just so beautiful and perfect!!! Thanks thanks thanks, you can't imagine how much I needed this in this period. It's one of my favorite at all! Thanks a lot dear Heather ❤️
