    Peace, Bishop Barron. Deep down, I am afraid of abandonment. I only wanted to be a wife and a mom when I was young. I went to school and got a master's degree to humor my Dad, so that I wouldn't be left without being able to get a good paying job. Now I'm poor again, a working disabled woman, and I get to go to school again. I still fear abandonment. People will do that-- abandon you, but God will never abandon you. That's what I have learned so far in my life. I hope that I will succeed in school-- getting my paramedic certification and renewed CDL; finding a job while I work on my Doctorate. Then hopefully teaching Psychology and Education in a college. I pray for myself and my family members -- that we all have healthy fear of hurting God. Thank you.

      You are absolutely correct. Many people Will disappoint and abandon you but God never will. Amen! Thanks be to God. Congrats on getting your degrees. Nobody can take those away from you. With God on your side, no one can stop you now! Keep trusting and obeying God and you will be content. ❤🎉

    Dearest Bishop Robert Barron,
    Good morning!
    A few weeks ago, I was struggling, and I eventually started to sense that fear inside of me was an attack by Satan meant to cripple my faith. And his attack was working because I was beginning to believe in Satan's agent. Whenever fear would assail me to distract my relationship with serving God, I tried to read the bible verses, but the fear didn't go away; since then, I have realized that many Christians experience similar challenges. Through the Sunday sermon, I find peace. I praise the Lord that I haven't doubted His saving work for turning my weaknesses into strengths and making it possible for me to live with Him and my family forever. Bishop, I pray that Jesus Christ continues to help me overcome fearful thoughts. Thank you for the Sunday sermon today and for praying for my family. God bless you all.
    St. pray for us.
    St. Faustina, pray for us.
    Our lady of Lourdes, pray for us.

    Beautiful sermon, Bishop Barron. There is much to be fearful of, and for me, the ONE thing I am afraid of is losing my soul. I am endeavoring to strengthen that part of me through prayer, detachment and learning. I know, unfortunately, how easy it is to fall so that your soul is in danger. Thank you for this reflection and for the reminder that there are men and women who have made that courageous choice to not lose contact with the Almighty by disregarding the danger to their flesh and appropriately safeguarding their souls. God bless you, Excellency.

I have never been Catholic, but I have a rosary and the other night I thought of it and held it in my hand all night and it comforted me. I feel drawn to the Catholic faith and I’m wondering if it’s the anchor I need.

    Bishop Barrons uses powerful examples of saints to demonstrate those who had fear of the Lord and could truly proclaim by their lives, "Be not afraid" in the midst of a world that gave reasons to fear.
    There is something sobering about how we can suffer eternal punishment if we deny God, even as we marvel that God has made a way for us to Eternal Life to strengthen us in the midst of whatever evil can come at us in this world. Yet all the world can do is kill our bodies, not our souls.

Kudos to you for making the Lord relevant to people of all ages in the here and now. ❤God bless all who hear this. Never fear, God is here. Always ready to forgive and love us forever. ❤❤❤

    Thank you Bishop Barron. I tune in from Kenya and I am so proud of our brothers the Ugandans, our neighbours to the west and their great Saint Lwanga and 22 companions. They gave a resounding "no" to homosexual sin and their actions reverberate the world over especially in these perilous times. Thank you Sir.

    Another wonderful sermon, really can relate to a lot of the topics mentioned as I’m going through so many things at the moment. Lately have been having such a hard time with things and people and this one hits home.
    A lot of my calm temperament comes from being faithful during my hardest times, prayers can go a long way but just knowing he’s there for me brings me peace on the daily. I like the metaphor of the castle of safety and peace. Thanks for the amazing message as always!

    “….for such a time as this” (Esther 4:14). Very fitting homily especially these days. This sermon’s wisdom combined with Bishop Barron’s video, The Mass, has been an unbelievable spiritual gift the past week. The latter was so riveting, I went back frequently to absorb its rich explanations, even took notes (never, ever do this) & shall revisit again. May blessings return 100 fold to you, Bishop Barron!

      They with ears to hear, let them hear:
      Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit!
      Hear me when I say, ye that are Catholic have been deceived and know not God. Ye worship Mary, praying to her; when God tells his to worship none other than him. It is idolatry.
      Catholicism has its own Bible and teachings, which are blasphemous to the word of God: the Holy Bible. As ye follow the teachings of man and not God; ye hear the pope, but not Jesus, yet ye claim to be his disciples!
      These are but a few things I named ye dwell within; there are many more. I tell you now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father!
      There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you!
      They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God...
      Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask:
      "Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen."
      Revelation 22:8-9 KJV
      8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
      9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
      Acts 2:38 KJV
      38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      Luke 11:13 KJV
      13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
      John 14:21-24 KJV
      21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.*
      22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
      23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.*
      24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*
      3 John 1:11 KJV
      11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. *He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.*
      1 John 3:6-10 KJV
      6 *Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.*
      7 Little children, let no man deceive you: *he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.*
      8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
      9 *Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.*
      10 *In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,* neither he that loveth not his brother.

      1) Please pay attention to the prayers said at the Mass.
      2) This Sunday, Psalm 69 was read. A verse in it is
      This is my prayer to you, my prayer for your favour. In your great love, answer me, O God, with your help that never fails.
      3)Prayer for peace at Mass asking the Lord, who gives peace, to look not on our sins and grant the Church peace
      Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your Apostles: Peace I leave you, my peace I give you;
      look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church, and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will.
      4) Ask any priest about the above things.

    I do not want to fall away from our Loving God Bishop Barron!!! Despite not having any support from my family, my loved ones and not yet being part of a close community of believers within the Catholic Church. Also not yet participating in service for those who are in need for our Lord. To overcome the obstacles, the challenges I face within and those outside. To persevere regardless of the thoughts and the senses, that are trying to distance me from my God given Faith, to our Eternal Loving Father God, to our Loving Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, to our Lord the Giver of Life, our Great Advocate, the Holy Spirit, and to the Catholic Church!!! Thank you Bishop Barron for this very important Sermon, and these questions we need to ask ourselves...And to TRUST our Lord Jesus Christ's WORDS...TO NOT FEAR what can kill the body BUT FEAR THE ONE WHO CAN KILL THE BODY AND SOUL!!! Our spirit, where God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit ABIDES and my spirit ABIDES IN GOD!!! I pray to the Lord God to keep me CLOSE TO HIM. Could you please pray with me too Bishop Barron?

    I will admit I could not get through Interior Castle, and have been reading The Life of St. Theresa of Avila. But that one remark of yours, Bishop Barron, that is how she would’ve thought about a castle. Not like a Disneyfied version, but a defensive structure, a rampart. That sheds a whole new light on what she was talking about. I will have to give it another try. Thank you.

      We can respect different opinions but in the end we must follow our conscience. To go against our conscience is neither safe or right .
      Bishop Strickland is a good and sincere man but he is not always correct and the same can be said about any Bishop.
      Don't ever follow any person blindly as you will fall into a ditch and get so disappointed . Simply follow Christ alone who is the true Light
      of the world and you will never walk in darkness and reach " The promised land " where God dwells eternally.
