I worry for my sons who know right from wrong but don’t delve into the essence of our lord’s teaching… I was like that for a long time and wasted many precious years sinning my life away even though I knew better… I have a long purgatory awaiting me and now wish I could go back to their childhood and try harder to instil the love of God into them… I now pray unceasingly for my family 🙏🏻🙏🏻💕✝️📿❤️ May the love of God surround us every minute of the day 🔥💕🙏🏻
This friar’s lectures are totally eye opening ,the manner of preaching is raw and real ,very easy to grasp ,especially for nearly converted like me .May God Almighty use him to help other souls even more . God bless Marian Friars Minor and Steve as well 🙏
Food for the soul. Thank God for these priests. 1. Pray for those whom you find obnoxious, difficult. The devil hates this act of charity because it hurts, it is humiliation just as our Lord is humiliated yet prays for his persecutors. 2. You can do nothing, save Jesus does it. Vine, Branch. We must be active in charity. Firstly love God. Let God work in us. This is life long, a hard struggle with self.
We must offer everything up to God, work out our own salvation, complain to Him alone, pray for everyone, instead of condemning those who are disagreeable to you, practice the opposite virtue that you do not likee in others.. If you have negative thoughts about your neighbour, do not entertain them at all, if you hear bad things about your neighbour, be sure to let it die within you and never repeat it to others. Give yourself to Jesus at the foot of the cross, suffer willingly, and Our Blessed Mother will love you if you console her, have compassion on Jesus and Mary and pray always and you will see a dramatic change in your spiritual life
I was never able to reconcile the dictate to fear God until you explained that to fear God is to fear offending him. That was a big light bulb movement for me.
Bless! You made me laugh about the journal thing and someone finding it. Our private life (holy) vs outside life (normal)… lol. ! Yes, we need to TRUST God. 💜
Often I find there is always that ONE person who makes it so hard to truly love them. I just pray for that person. The more they annoy me, or make me struggle internally , the more I concentrate on praying for them. I would pull them from a burning vehicle, or pray for them in times of sorrow. I will not however spend a lot of time around them. I will not invite them to my home. I don’t have to. That’s not refusing to “love” them. I love them enough to desire good for them, and are willing to give my life, time, and material goods for them. Doesn’t mean I must like them, or desire to be their friend. Jesus never said we have to LIKE our enemies. Only LOVE them enough to desire their salvation.
Im almost the opposite. Im much better and holier in private. I have great contrition pf my sins when im home. Then i go out into the world and theres people out there. They drive me nuts. God help me love others like you do
PART of the Jewish people rejected Christ; but a good many of them did not - they became the FIRST members of the Church - by the hundreds and by the thousands they converted.
They couldn't keep the Law because they didn't have the Law inside of them. Now, read 1John, Now we have His seed within us as we are to walk JUST as Jesus walked, be As Pure as Jesus is, and there is nothing in us to stumble, because He is in us. If you sin, you do not know Him nor have seen Him and are not born again, because there is NO sin in Him, He cannot sin and if He is in you that means You Cannot sin either! Otherwise you do not bera the image of Christ and you are not a heavenly being and are not seated with Him in heavenly places. The darkness cannot comprehend the light. Thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Otherwise, why did He die for you? If you continue to sin (I repent ace) you truly do not know Him or abide in Him and you better get on your hands and knees face to the floor and cry and weep out to the Lord. 2cor15
Sorry, but I could not get beyond nine minutes. You’re jumping all around with different subjects. You need a guideline, an outline to keep you organized and on point for your talk and I’m sure there’s a lot of good information that can be presented.
This. Is. Total. 🔥! Period. Full Stop! God bless all who listen and believe! Blessed Mother pray for us and God Bless this Friar and all priests!

If we don’t have good men and fathers to set a good example, our young boys will be lost.
Very helpful, thank you.

We need to read St Thomas Aquinas volumes. They contain the Catholic laws. Please correct me if i'm wrong.
what is the thumbnail from? I love that image but I cant find who painted it
Kiss of Judas by Giotto
Sorry wrong picture. I don't know what that thumbnail is of either
@Jack Sobocinski Search for St. Lawrence of Brindisi. That should help.
@A Simple Crusader That's it! You found it!
that is the painting of Luca Giordano “Expulsion of the Money-Changers From the Temple”
