Dont compare yourself to anyone, just be the best person you can possibly be for God with what you have!
I had way more guilt when I was Protestant…. because I didn’t understand certain truths and I felt the absence of that fullness. I agree…Catholic guilt isn’t a thing. Guilt is. It’s a guide…an invitation to seek truth. To seek God. ❤
When I was a Catholic-in-name-only (not practicing my Catholic Faith) I used to think I was such a good person. I swore up and down I was a good person. Eventhough I was living in sin up to my eyeballs and was not repenting of my sins. Looking back, I was NOT a good person. I was delusional. Now, that I am back in the Faith and practicing the Catholic Faith I have improved a lot BUT there is still room for much more improvement.
Some people who has been abused in childhood and told that they were doing bad things constantly , screamed at or beaten up, they grow up to be adults who constantly feel guilty for no reason.
I told a friend recently that I am converting to Catholicism and they prompt said ‘get ready for all the misery and guilt’, but I feel joyful and excited.
God really loves me? So God loves me. I just have to trust in Jesus. Thank you Fr. Mike.
Can’t put in words how much I needed this video today! God’s Providence is amazing!
Thank you. I struggle with the truth that God loves me and I have anxiety and scrupulosity. These videos always help me.
6:22 Thank you Fr Mike for always sharing your wisdom. You don’t even know how many souls you reach with your beautiful, motivational and inspiring messages that without a doubt come straight from God through the Holy Spirit… thank you ♥️ God bless
I am a good person because I receive holy Penance every week. I’m a very good, faithful Catholic and a person..
Amen glory to God Najib Christ follower and ex Muslim from Afghanistan!🙏🙏🕊️
God bless you Fr. Mike, I can’t say enough how much I needed to hear this today!!! 🙏🏻 Glory to Jesus Christ!!
I’ve waited my whole life for someone to explain this to me. I think I finally got.
Thank You so much for this video! Here I am sitting in my apartment, fighting for sobriety and every day is a struggle. I go to Adoration every Tuesday and there hasn't been a time where I don't start crying; because I feel His Love and its indescribable! 😭💐 I say my Rosary every day and do the Bible in a Year podcast. St Faustina's Diary was one of the best things I've ever read! 😭😭💛 we Love You Too Jesus!
"Let God's love penetrate the cracks of my heart." I love this so much...
Спасибо отец, я решил вернуться в католическую Церковь! Благодаря вашим проповедям. ❤️
I feel like I was MEANT to see this. Lately I've been regretting every little thing and for no reason. There are evil spirits truly among us.
