This talk is so heartfelt- and I don’t want Father’s talk to end. It’s like a life-line🙏😢
Being aware & to better understanding our 7 human desires to be Heard & Understood, Safe, Touched, Affirmed, Blessed, Chosen, Included/Belong, can help us better appreciate the parables Jesus shared in the Gospel, and use them to overcome our addictions & sins when we turn to Jesus to meet & fulfill our deepest needs & desires.
I am addicted to Focus/Seek22. I am binging.
This is so beautiful, so real, not preachy does not come across as a sermon read off a script. We need to be hungry for more of Jesus. He has to be, we need him to dwell completely on the throne of our hearts. He stretched out his arms on that cross and said this is how much I love you. ❤
I was thinking about those changes like cutting off constant being in the Internet (no scrolling), cutting of comfort foods, comedy shows, and comforting little useless chats etc...
... and so many people thought I am crazy, too radical, I am not a person that can live in the society. I felt I was made weird, but THANK YOU for helping me to come back to my clear vision.
How precious is life, that it is not meant to be wasted on little pleasures that keep us from reaching to the big goals and fulfilling our destination. I am thankful for pointing out that cutting something that is not considered a grave sin can be truely liberating. Even by the church people or our relatives it can be called extremism, which is not true. Sinking into all pleasures possible in order to regulate our nervous system is really blocking us from growth, change and happiness. Being serious with those things is being serious with ourselves and our lives.
*Hello everyone... How nice to believe in God he protects you if you believe in God give me a thumbs up👍 I'm not forcing you and I can only see that we believe in God it's not hard for you to give him a thumbs up👍 it's less hard for you to praise God because praising God costs nothing*
I wish I could know what it's like to live "life more abundantly" or "to the full." It seems very very very much like the real definition of abundant life is more like, "remember, it could be worse." Life is a drudgery and my only hope for improved existence seems to be heaven. It has made my vision for life a bit like - just persevere in the faith, just "make it" until I die. That's not like joy, to me. I want joy in the Lord.
Stunning...Thank you, Fr. Kilcawley. God bless your steps forward.
I still have to remind myself on a regular basis to behave when it comes to overeating. Whenever I want to have too much of something, i remember "I'm doing this with Jesus. Does He really want me to do this? Eat that? Say this?" And so on. Thanks, Father Kilcawley. ❤
I have the same exact struggle. I feel so isolated and overwhelmed by it, but Father Kilcawley’s advice is so helpful. We all have struggles, but Jesus is always with us.
"Does Jesus really want me to do this?" Love that thought. I'm going to use it from now on. Respect bro 💪
@@matty301 I'm a woman. Thanks for the respect, Matty28. "Bro!"
My Jesus Mercy help me have a truthful desire for Life in You
Bless you Father for this!
This stopped me in my tracks. Wow. Thank you, Father!
This video changed my life. Thank you! ❤🙏🏽✝️💕 God Bless Father.
God bless you, Father. I am battling social media addiction. I'm making slow progress. But I am grateful for progress.
Thank you Fr.Sean Kilcawley: Clearly, your talk was JESUS' Doing exactly what U have so well explained, as what JESUS Does in Fulfilling The Desires of One's Heart...in the context of the reality of my own Life!!
Coincidentally perhaps🤔, my YouVersion Scripture Verse for today is: Prov.4:23...guess the crux is: Giving One's❤ To The Lord JESUS💯, in order to enable What JESUS Promises in (St.)John's Gospel happen in our Life (Jn.14: 23)...Thank You Father!!!...'N Thank You, JESUS!!!...My Lord And My GOD🙇♂️
Thank you, Father.
Thank you Fr..your talk was encouraging and honest. God bless you.
I needed to hear this today Fr,
God Bless you always.
This is good. Actually helpful.
I am struggling with an addition -masterbation....and it comes when I FEEL not enough or I am angry with the world.....I thank you for this message Lord....I beg for forgiveness
EXCELLENT!!!
Beautiful talk and blessed priest. The Lord Jesus has set me free from so many addictions. It would have happened sooner in my life , but I was a complete mess.
When I try to confess massive overeating the priest says food alone is not a sin and that it is only gluttony if alcohol is involved according to st Thomas Aquinas. Maybe he meant not a mortal sin but still venial? Hard to believe something so destructive could not be a sin.
that can't possibly be right, and I have never seen Aquinas say the like
I don’t think they understand food addiction and using food like a drug. I think that overeating has been normalised.
I confessed the same and the priest didn't take me serious. Unless you're a slave to bingeing on food, you won't understand how much it robs a person of the abundant life and a desire to live. Sugary carbs are so soothing, they give me wings...but take away the sky. TERRIBLE addiction
We never stop sinning but we can certainly grow and perhaps sin less.
teach that your colleague!!! many of those Bishop or Padre can't stop going out with men or children!!!
We are trying but it’s a huge organization
the sinner points to a sinner we do not leave Jesus because of Judas … be a John not a Judas Gustavoabalos be faithful go seek the Eucharist, for every priest that has failed God there are thousands of Holy ones everywhere around the world
@@v5314 the only holy is Jesus!!!! the only good person is Jesus!!! those are weak man they are thinking living that way are following Jesus and that is wrong, they are following Lucifer, and you must wake up and live that "church" asap.The real church of Jesus Christ is right now on this earth in other way the kingdom of God is here right now, you must pray and ask God and he will answer you and he will show you the way!!!
Why does this preist repeat everything twice it's insane
If you don't like it dont watch or quit complaining.
@@christopherbright1048 asking questions isn't complaining if you don't like my comment quit complaining about it and keep scrolling, perhaps it's cos my comment contained truth that's what ruffled your feathers
@@caolainhession notice Fr is speaking sans notes, off the cuff you might say. Try that some time before a large crowd
@@christopherbright1048 I would have enough self awareness to not repeat literally every second sentence
Priest need to work on how to bless himself. that was sloppy
