    Something that I've really come to realise is that I've never changed or tweaked anything on my own strength, it has always been the heavenly Father. Without Him I am nothing. To God be the glory ⚘️🪻🌷🐦🙏🕊✝️❤️

      I have health issues as does my husband. Every day that I can do what I have to do I tell God-- well I absolutely know that was you because I could not do that in my own strength. I can do nothing without him and I don't want to do anything without him.

    🌹 “Jesus does not demand great action from us, but simply surrender and gratitude. Our Lord’s love shines out just as much through a little soul who yields completely to His Grace as it does through the greatest. Little things done out of love, are those that charm the Heart of Christ. To be His, one must remain little - little like a drop of dew! Oh, how few are the souls who aspire to remain little in this way! I rejoice to be little, because only children and those who are like them will be admitted to the heavenly banquet. Jesus, help me to simplify my life by learning what you want me to be and becoming that person.” - St. Thérèse of Lisieux
    🌹🙏🏼 St. Thérèse, help me to always believe as you did, in God’s great love for me, so that I might imitate your “Little Way” each day. Amen.

    Father Goring , I love your homilies. So good! I used to be a weeder too. My husband and I have a landscaping business. It was hard work, but I loved being outside in God’s creations of flowers and shrubs and trees, and seeing the beauty when done. Such a good comparison about uprooting the bad things in your life and making micro changes in your life with the help of God’s Grace and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. You said, I don’t like to use the word hell, I like to use positive language and cheer people up..- (and that helps me so much). “ Who here wants to go to heaven, oh yeah, we all do, Amen. If we need a kind of little CLEAN UP before we go to heaven, we call that Purgatory. Don’t aim for Purgatory , because if you miss, you know we…. We all want to go to heaven, maybe we have to do a little cleanup in Purgatory , don’t aim for that, but none of us wants to go “to the other place”. Make it your goal in life to go to heaven. And” To long for Heaven is the same thing as to long for Me”, what beautiful Words that God told a mystic!
    Long for Heaven, long for God because you don’t want to go to”the other place”. You were saying such important things, but the way you said them WAS so positive, but you also had me laughing with the kind of humorous way you say things.
    I must spend more time in Scripture. I love when you read from the Scriptures every video.
    Your face was so funny and your mouth dropped when you told us they said, “We would like you , Father Mark , to play a song on your ukulele and for Father Ken to accompany you. They said “One song, GREAT! And Father Ken said, I can do an interpretive dance to your song! “ This was the best video and you had me laughing again. You GO FATHER MARK on your ukulele! I always learn a lot from you Father Mark. I used to think, you have to go to purgatory, it’s to hard to go straight to heaven. But now I will try! Thank you Father Mark. 😊🙏💕

      Simplicity, Holiness, Purity, Essentialism, Focus, PEACE, The ease of His burden and living in the Holy Spirit. Weeding out the noise and distractions from my purpose. These are the messages from God for the season of my life right now, and I think for the world as well. Perhaps we (the world and me) are in the late autumn of our lives. He has been telling me to get on board with these. I have lived a distracted, complex, greedy, wanting it all, contaminated, noisy life. I’m always in a hurry to get things done. The good news is I am taking small steps to be still and know that he is God. I try to discern correct action and thought by trying to avoid things that do not bring me peace. Your quotes here are helpful - I will keep them in my heart and on my sparkly star page! Please keep them coming! Thank you and God bless you ZionLion. 💐

      For the love of God and in appreciation of His perfect sacrifice on the cross, be serious ! The thief and the prodigal son were above all repentant. I never said that the one who willingly did evil was similarly under grace !!! If you believe you can earn your salvation through your own performances, your faith is not on the right track at all. Here is what the WORD says: (Isaiah 64:6) But we are all as an unclean thing, and
      ALL OUR RIGHTEOUSNESSES ARE AS FILTHY RAGS;
      and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. (Ephesians 2: 9) Not of works, lest any man should boast.

    Good tips on welcoming people. Most protestant churches have a parishoner on duty inside the front door to greet people and hand out the bulletin as they arrive (not when they leave). Catholics cd use a tip or two from protestants in this regard.

    Titus 3:3 KJV "For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers (many different) lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. 4 But after that the Kindness and Love of GOD our SAVIOR toward man appeared 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to HIS Mercy HE saved us (through HIS real shed Blood/Justification), by the washing of regeneration (born again spiritually/cleansed as by Water/Sanctification), and renewing of the HOLY GHOST (restoring our soul not sacrificing CHRIST over and over again in the unbloody sacrifice of the mass); 6 which HE shed on us abundantly through JESUS CHRIST our SAVIOR; 7 that being justified by HIS grace (GOD's free gift of salvation), we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life."

    I appreciate the positive energy but we Catholics need to stop watering down the very clear message that Jesus repeatedly tells us in the Bible. If His warnings about hell scare us then good!!! Some of us need that wake up call to change our ways and humble ourselves before the Lord.

    • @chomperthefirst533
      @chomperthefirst533 Місяць тому +5

      I hear what you’re saying. But we also need to be working towards something good rather than running from what is bad. It is no good to pluck the weeds without sowing the virtues. The virtues are the goal, not the plucking. We are to fear the Lord. He wants everything good for us. It’s called ‘Saving Justice’ and it brings His peace.

    And please, if you decide to say "hello" to someone you don't know, that's great. But please, have your conversations outside of Church.
