This was a timely message. I was wracking my heart and brain about a decision I'm supposed to make. It's comforting to know that I can take some time to make the decision over days and not have to force myself to decide one day. God is patient, and persevering, and loving. I feel at peace knowing this.
I'm beginning to see the mindset of make a decision now right now or something bad will happen is influenced by TV and movie plots. I'm happy to hear true discernment isn't so dramatic.
Full disclosure, when he said Subway, I thought sandwich shop. 😂 This gives me such peace. I need to remember to take time to listen but remember He will repeat it if I need it. And to remember that God has a will and its good.
So timely, but the timing for this subject hardly doesn't come by. Just by listening, my heavy heart was lifted and I got some insights. Thank you, Fr. Mark-Mary and Br. Lawrence
Excellent, Excellent, Excellent, what I have learned is the Lord will affirm that you hear His Voice correctly, and yes, a trusted friend who can recognize the Word of the Lord really helps. If I may add, and not to detract from your excellent message here which is true. The real will of God for your life is that you do hear the Word of God because the Word of God is the Life He has given you through and in His Beloved Son, Jesus. And that you acknowledge His Word in the believing and trusting, as you say that it is good and good for you, the truth is the Word of God to you and the fulfillment thereof, is your Life that is of God.
This is so enlightening! I often wonder if I make my decisions on my own or if God is telling me this is what he wants for me. I ask him to help me make my decisions according to his will and wait on his timing.
Thank you Fr MM And Br Lawrence this comes at a crucial time. The word discernment seems not a fit for me until now,when I think it over . I'm having so much confusion and no direction.with God's constant help I'm not alone . I need to understand my life according To His will. Please pray for me, my poor health is the cause of a lot of tension..
What you have depression. Definitely . Go talk to therapist . Life is miserable god is understanding , faith do positive things , things in Christ . Faith in everything you as for the lord you god . If you are man ,or woman wear goat milk soap to help you skin, dress modest , visit park with precautions , , talk positive people and technology , use it as if you help people what cole from the heart to help out people too . God is good .
Pretty much anything I might want - even if it’s good - is a no go. Pray 🙏 unceasingly, even if I’m left full of nothing. I’m willing. Where else am I to turn anyway? Ahhhhh well. Carry on. I’m Praying for heart of gratitude to be well formed.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! It brought so much clarity and peace to me. Can you also make another video on how to discern whether or not God wants me to enter religious life or the priesthood despite the desire for marriage?
I always pray that I become a successful Catholic Social Media Influencer to spread the teachings and Revelations of the Catholic Church and the entire Christendom. I hope and pray the Devotion to the Eucharist and the Holy Souls in Purgatory helps me. Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary, pray for us Chaste Heart of St. Joseph, pray for us St. Clelia Barbieri, pray for us
Lectio Divina is useful in trying to discern God's will after writing the dreams, signs, and omens that we experience, but we must also keep Sirach 34 in mind as they can be of our own imaginings.
Excuse me for using your podcast but I noticed on Day 1 of the Surrender Novena on the Hallow app the word "products" is used should that word be "produces"🙏❤
Idk what the will of God is for me all I know is none of the life I have rn is what I want and I’m constantly miserable, anxious and depressed. I can’t move forward and I don’t wanna be here anymore
I know when that still small voice in my head says do or don't do this. My problem is not only listening but hearing. I fail too many times re don't hear.
Let's assume a man wanted some other kind of job. He applied and was rejected. How can he know if he's either supposed to not apply to be a manager anymore (maybe he could mistreat otehr workers when he is in power?) or maybe he is supposed to raise his competences and qualifications first and stilly try to apply?
I want to get married but I am afraid of being called to the priesthood because I still havent met a good woman at 26. Countless bad women I have talked to in the past have never worked out for me and I want to meet the right one. I want to be a family man and provide for a family, but worry I have a calling to the priesthood or religious life because my dating attempts havent gone anywhere. I have no inclinations to the priesthood or religious life and that lifestyle seems lonely and unappealing to me.
@@Mistah_Boombastic_BiggieCheese I cannot be 100% sure. I can, however, speak from my own experience. I also think I might be called to priesthood but, similarly to you, also want the joy of being married. The big difference between us that I can see is that you described the priesthood as seemingly lonely and unappealing, whereas I do not see it that way. I see it as a potentially fulfilling way to serve God with my life, changing people’s lives and leading and participating in a Christian/Catholic revival. This is a very serious matter since it will decide the course of our lives. For this reason I would say to pray about this and ask the saints to pray for you about this. I will pray for you, brother, and I ask that you pray for me too. Hope this helped and God bless.
@@Spugizakom do you think God call me against my wishes and thats why I am still single? So what do you think about that big difference between you and me? What should I even ask the saints?
I have a question. On Holy Trinity my husband who s got some personaliti desorders and was on exorcisns had argue with his mother who is bad person she rejected him. He came home and was moving and just desapeared eithout anythibg. Two monts left he didn t come home he is bot well again he hates me and is worse then vefore exorcism. Is it God s Will or evel. When he is fine he is goog man and i love him a lot. What do you thibk? Have to tell you my only child died i have no family and bo property and i m 55. God bless you.
@bluesky12-c1o some people He seems to work up to it, many fewer he just all of a sudden tells to go do it. I still don't want to, but trying to do His will.
Where is it said and what does it matter if God's will is good for us personally? God's will seems to continually and routinely require our preferences to be sidelined making our definitions of good effectively irrelevant.
I keep getting a vibe that there's something seriously morally wrong with Lawrence . There's a duplicity that is buried under a lot of distraction in his verbage and body language.
That's interesting that you read his behavior that way! I read it as he is earnest in what he is saying but he was anxious because he could feel Father Mark-Mary's eyes on him and FMM had a pretty stoic and flat expression on his face. We humans are very sensitive to the microexpressions of those around us (especially those in authority) and I wouldn't be surprised if the restlessness that you sensed was a result of that! Also I feel like this was the first AP video I've seen Lawrence in so he may have felt extra pressure to not disappoint. Whichever is true, it's nice to know that the solution is to pray for true peace in his spirit and greater dependence on/reverence to God 😊
Its comforting to know that we wont miss it and he will repeat it. Such a timely video thank you Fr. Mark Mary and Fr.Lawrence

Love that you guys seem down to earth and outgoing. The catholic church needs this...
Thank you so much! Best video on discernment - trusting Him that He wants us to know His Will and it is good for us...

Attentiveness is a great blessing and virtue-many thanks.

Thank you for these words of wisdom
It is a practice... walking humbly with our GOD. But when you hear HIM, YOU. WILL.KNOW!!!
I guess I’ve never heard Him because my life is miserable and I have no Will to live anymore
What you have depression. Definitely . Go talk to therapist .

Thank you so much, God bless you Fr and Br. Peace and blessings ☀️🙏🏻
Brother Lawrence, thank you for that explanation. Very helpful! ❤️
Thank you, I’ve always wondered if I choose the wrong thing, what happens. I’m glad the message can be repeated.
Pretty much anything I might want - even if it’s good - is a no go.
Pray 🙏 unceasingly, even if I’m left full of nothing. I’m willing. Where else am I to turn anyway?
Ahhhhh well. Carry on.
I’m Praying for heart of gratitude to be well formed.
Remember, when Jonah did not heed God's message and decided on a different path, God did not just give up.
I like the last analogy.. thank you.
Thank you Brother!

How do you know he is speaking to you?

I feel so lost in life :(

Sometimes he just tells you while your praying to go be a priest. You never asked, but he tells you... And you really don't want to do it.

I still don't want to, but trying to do His will.

Before you ask what is god's will for us, what is your evidence for the god you imagine.
This video was way too short! Come on guys do better!😅
You don't.
