What Does God Want Me to Do?

- Father Mike Schmitz offers some clarity regarding God’s will in our lives. He directs us to the story of Israel’s desert wanderings in the Old Testament and the Annunciation to Mary in the Gospels, describing how even the tribes of Israel and Mary had to be content with the uncertainty of God’s will at times. Father Mike also teaches how we can discern God’s will even in the silence.

"God's never going to ask you to make decisions based off what you don't know." THANK YOU. I needed to hear this so bad. I keep thinking of myself in all these different careers and going after different vocations in my life, but some of the things are things that I really have no knowledge about. Knowing that I'm right where I need to be and that God will introduce to me anything that He wills for me is like a load off of my chest.
I also found this line very powerful. Sometimes I fear the lessons of god, who where quite painful for me. Yet to be delivered and to trust is the definition of faith. Very helpful.
im not even a christian or religious at all, but really enjoy these videos for some reason...
Same
Hmm
Perhaps they are speaking to a part of you which you don't believe you have. 🙂
Fr. Mike really has a calming presence.
Cause Fr. Mike is a great person and priest!
Hello father I'm new to cristianity and I live in an Islamic country. I am hiding my faith please do a video about us the people who live with two faces and find themselves obliged to fast and pray in Ramadan just to be safe.
and I want to convince my atheist father ,who is very stubborn and sometimes intolerant. Please help me!
I just find your chanel thanks to a sister who suggested your sermons to me father.
Thank you so much!
Rim Bel Are you saved? I'm asking because you can only go to heaven if you are saved
Jesus Is Lord yes I'm saved, but I don't know how to pray, and I don't go to church because in the city where I live there is no church,and I didn't get baptised so I feel like I'm far from God.
I want some advices on how to be close to god in my situation. Thank you!
Rim Bel Prayer is more of a way to talk to God. There isn't a specific way to pray to God. Everyone communicates differently. You can pray to him out loud, in your head, or through a journal. If you pray out loud, the devil can hear your prayers, so it's important to keep that in mind. You don't have to talk to him in a fancy Elizabethan or Shakespeare English. Talk to him like you would talk to a father. You can vent out your feelings to God. Like for example, if you ever feel sad, lonely, or anxious. You can tell God how you are feeling and tell him why you are feeling this way. If you want to ask God for something then always end the prayer with "In Jesus name, Amen" because anything you ask in the name of Jesus, God the father will give it to you if it's his will. For example, let's say you want a new pair of shoes.
You can pray like this: Dear God, I love you so much. Can you please give me money to buy me a new pair of shoes? In Jesus name, Amen.
If you seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness. Meaning if you have been reading the bible and praying to God and it's Gods will for you to get these shoes, he will give you the money through someone else so you can buy a new pair of shoes.
By the way, I noticed you mentioned that you live in an Islamic country and that you are hiding your faith. I will recommend for you to pray to God everyday and ask him to protect you and keep you safe but remember to ask it in the name of Jesus. You should also ask God to not make anyone in your country find out that you are a Christian so you can be safe.
As for the church thing. Since there aren't any churches in your area. You can watch church sermons on TH-cam or on a podcast. I will recommend for you to watch Elevation Church. They upload church sermons on TH-cam and on podcasts. You should look them up. You should also watch TD Jakes on TH-cam as well.
Lastly, I will like to recommend for you to watch these youtubers, they can teach you a lot about the bible and God in general. You should watch Ieva F, Heather Lindsey, and Girl Defined on TH-cam.
Rim Bel , I told God how I love African parrot and asked him if I can have one in heaven because it's very expensive here. It's around $2000 and two weeks later a African parrot flew to my house and stay with me. I bought a huge cage for it to stay in and I made a mistake by giving it away because my dad died and I got depressed. Until this day I still heart broken over it.
bummer beavis No this guy is not pagan. He is a believer in Christ, he just chooses to be apart of the Catholic denomination. Christians need to stop being so caught up on Protestant vs. Catholic. God doesn't care about the denomination, he cares about the relationship. He showed me that it's the relationship with him that you can only get through salvation that matters, not what denomination someone is. Everyone in the body of Christ (meaning everyone who is saved in general) need to stick together regardless of our denomination. Don't let the devil divide us! Especially in these last days!
BTW I'll like to add that Catholics call the priest "father" out of respect. They are not calling the priest "father" to compare him to God who is our Heavenly Father. Obviously they know that God is above the priest and any human being in general.
A little over a year ago, after watching this video, I faced my fears and told my mother that I wanted to become catholic. She wept bitterly, but as any good mother does, she picked up the phone and started calling people. It’s thanks to her, and the providence of God that I found my priest and was able to become catholic. She herself has now pondered often on become catholic herself. So please pray for her; a mother who supported her daughter, despite the sacrifice it cost her.
Jesus Christ be Praised ☺️🌹🌹🌹
Jesus wasn't a catholic, you don't need to follow it, just HIM and read the new testament, you don't need a religion jesus was against religion, it was religious people that sent him to be assassinated, Jesus is the end of religion thats why the religious leaders were threatened.
@@GrantJolanta “I came not to abolish the law but to fulfill it.” (Words from Jesus Christ). Also it was not religious people but all of our sins that crucified Christ. Which includes you as well as me. We all are responsible for His death. Look at the early church fathers. You’ll see that they put the New Testament together. Before the New Testament existed the church had oral tradition. You are falling pray to scrupulosity towards words such as “catholic”. You are letting it become a stumbling black the same way the Sabbath was a stumbling block for the sinful Pharisees. Catholic means “ universal church” that’s all. It means “Christians from all nations” if you will. Every Christian is in danger of spiritual pride. It’s not exclusive to Catholics.
Also, look into the Eucharist. Jesus clearly states in John chapter 6 that He is not being symbolic. It’s because of Christ’s true presence in the Holy Eucharist that I became catholic. Look into Eucharistic miracles. You’ll see that what I say is true.
I know you wrote me with love & the intention of helping my soul. Know that I write to you in the same manner. Before you dismiss what I’ve written, I beg, that in the spirit of charity, you’d look into the church fathers & information on the Eucharist, especially Eucharistic miracles. Do it with prayer & fasting. Let your research be led by the Holy Spirit, not your emotions, since Satan can manipulate our feelings.
May the precious blood of Jesus shield you from the enemy & draw you ever closer to His most Sacred Heart ♥️.
Gratulerer! You should stick with your conversion. All of Scandinavia was once Catholic until Luther upset everything. If you explain to your mother that Protestant theology is defective because they're missing 6 books of the bible and that the Book of James was badly hacked about, she might be more comfortable with the idea.
@@GrantJolanta Jesus established the Catholic Church. It was the only church actually that's why it means universal. (Katholikos) from the Greek which the New Testament was first written in. The Old Testament is one half of the bible and Jesus himself referenced it and fulfilled it many times. You can't understand the NT properly unless you also know the OT.
@@gerhardsrensen6815 my mother converted about 2 years ago 🙏🏽☺️♥️. She prays the divine mercy chaplet every night ♥️. Thank you anyways for your advice.
when i was in Bible college the big question was "who should I marry?" one of the profs said, "until someone asks you the answer is easy: NOBODY!" :-) so true. thank you for this timely insight, Fr. Mike.
Thank you :) I needed to read it today.
This helped me a lot! Thanks!
He's a little hyper...less caffeine...🙏
Well yeah. You’re a woman so that would be the right answer. Seriously?
this is so profound father. i shed a tear. i suffer from mental disorder and my mind is constantly overwhelmed by all these uncertainties. glad to have seen this. so thankful to the Lord for having led me to your youtube channel. may God always bless you father. hope you can do a video on anxiety and how it affects going to mass, receiving the eucharist, and going to confession.
Praise God.
The Holy Spirit guide you!
You are not alone, nor will you ever be!
Stay strong! You’re never alone if God be for us than who is against us?
I will keep you in my prayers 🙏
Pray the rosary
It can't be anymore clear than this...
Matthew 25:35-40
35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you?39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
Joseph Radd This is one of my favorite passages next to when the children coming to Him under the tree. Thanks for your post it is fitting for all of us. God Bless
@@jellybelly7629 But for all the other nations and cultures involved? Plus, why did Satan retain any powers, exactly, upon exile?
chris sonofpear1 I don’t understand the question you are trying to ask. Also why God allowed satan to retain his powers was up to God. And we are not God so how would we know the answer to that part of your question. Remember God thinks differently than we do. IDK maybe you can ask Him yourself some day when you look upon His glorious face. I know for me I hope I get to see Him. I won’t care at all why He did what He does. I believe our judgment is given instantly upon death. However His time is different than how we measure time here. God Bless p.s. I love Him so much I look forward to my own death. But I certainly am not trying to push His hand either.
@@jellybelly7629 Nevertheless - I am asking. Because I care for many humans down here, and they often seem divided, rebuffed, or confused - and I already note CONSIDERABLE historical body counts, schisms, confusions, and curiously prolonged and worrying practices... including the vague definition and opposition to slavery.
Also, if impure, imperfect or sinful beings cannot be directly in YHWH's personal Presence, then was any exception made, for Satan, as defined in the Job story, at that time...?
I got teary eyed listening to this. I’ve been freaking out about what my vocation is supposed to be for two years and even more so since I’ll be starting college this year. I’m just so afraid that I’m going to mess up whatever my vocation is supposed to be, and the more time I spend with God, the more I think about how bad I am at discerning and so I’ve kind of been avoiding God because of that. I don’t know how to stop being afraid. It seems like everywhere I turn there’s always a fear keeping me from continuing
Helena, I feel you, chica. This was me for the past two years. please know that God is not going to make you do anything you don't want to do. You have free will! You have a choice! Something that has really helped me is viewing my relationship with God as an adventure. You know how you might make plans with friends or family to go on a road trip, but unexpected things come up that might not be the most fun? Despite those unexpected hiccups, when you get home, you can ultimately conclude that those hiccups probably made the ride even more worth it. God wants us. No matter what. You're not going to mess up your vocation, and it's more likely than not that God is not going to reveal to you what your entire life will look like overnight. Give it all to God no matter what.and let Him use you for whatever He needs. Bless you!
Jessica Rutkowski thank you, I’m trying to do better everyday, sometimes God feels distant, but I know that he’s there❤️
May I please ask you, does God ever not feel distant to you?
Sometimes theoretical knowledge is confusing. Go for a practical training to understand God and directly connect with Him. Meditate and raise your vibration. You can join some spiritual organization which can prepare you to decode God's words. God is love and peace. There is nothing to be afraid of as long as we stay humble and love Him unconditionally. God is our secret lover and guide.
@@jessicarutkowski1855 how are you doing now 2 years later?
I've always felt God in my heart. After my mother got sick I started to question everything. I couldn't understand why God let so many things happen. I wanted to deny Him and thought it was all one big lie to keep us under control however there was a part of me that no matter how bitter I was I still loved God. Today I woke up not feeling very happy and guilty so I went through youtube and found your channel and I just wanted to say thank you for renewing my faith and clearing up my confusion. I feel strong again. I dont feel lost and afraid. God bless.
Hoping and praying your doing well and that the LORD BLESS AND KEEP YOU ❤🙏🏼🫶🏼😊
I needed this so much I actually almost cried.. Thankssssss
John Smock LOL, like... why was this even necessary??
John Smock May I ask who hurt you so much that to ease the pain you feel the need to insult innocent people on beautiful, random youtube videos? :)
Paulina Ramírez he's just being edgy.
John Smock God is the one that decides when to take me, if I'm still here is bc He wants me to be here. But again, who hurt you so badly?
John Smock Well I'm sure that whatever happened to you, as horrible as it was, God wasn't responsible, He loves you and wants you to be in heaven with Him someday. I pray that you get to see that.
2:12 “God is never going to ask you to make decisions based off what you don’t know” 5:25
4:59 God’s certainty is “I will be with you”
Literally just prayed, telling God that I didn't know what to do with my time today. At the top of TH-cam home page was this clip.
Is he the coolest priest ever?! I really like him. I am a turkidh exmuslim convert to catholicism but there are few christians here so priests are never really turkish. Our priest only knows 2 words in english and 1 word in turkish 😂😂😂
Hi and welcome to the Faith :-) try youtube videos by Bishop Robert Barron too. They are very good as well. God bless!
dönecek başka din mi kalmadı ? katholiklik garip geldi bana..
Perhaps you could be a Turkish Priest for others?
Hey Ertan...I saw your comments on so many other Christian videos and now I see you here. My husband is turkish too.But we both were born and raised in Germany. He doesn‘t really believe in God and keeps distance from Religion. It‘s hard to talk about it with him. Maybe you could pray for him. Stay blessed brother.Cok tesekkürler
When you say you're a former Muslim, what do you mean? What you believe in and make you a Muslim. Sorry but I really want to make sure you understand that Islam is not a race .
My God, he is the spitting image of my earthly father. Even his steely ice blue eyes. My earthly father passed in 1999, and seeing this is very comforting and reassuring. As if my earthly father is talking to me. Not to mention my heavenly father.
Mine too! Isn't that something
I have so much struggle in life with the temptations of sin and that I need to pray to remind me that He will grant us the blessing, mercy, grace, and forgiveness through the body and blood of Jesus Christ our Lord. Heavenly Father I pray that we never be separated, send us your holy spirit and guide us towards a life without sin, amen.
Faith without action is dead. Go to confession and make sure you write all your sins on the paper so you wont forget anything. Go to mass every sunday and pray the rosary everyday and Trust in Jesus always that he will change you to be born again in spirit and truth.
Whoa. I just found out about Fr. Mike today from Redeemed Online, and I binge watch all of his videos in this channel. I've never met a priest this witty in my country (at least in my nearest parishes) who can deliver so much for such topics. Thanks Ascension Presents, thanks Fr. Mike for this very simple yet thorough explanation esp.on topics of vocation. God bless.
+Yenny Lestari matthew 23 9 9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. king james version. beware of these kinds
Eleven Oeight, I call my father "father" is it ok?
Call your father dad instead
“ Our certainty is that God is with us”! Such a gift!!! Thank you Father Mike, I so needed to hear that today, out loud! ✝️🙋🏻♀️😊
I am 60 and continue to pray for Lord Jesus in my life. Amen
I wish more priests were like Father Mike when I was growing up (warm, compassionate, easy to understand), maybe I'd still be a practicing christian today despite my own major differences of opinion with the Church.
+Dart B i know what you mean. i had some bad experiences with multiple priests so irl, i go out of my way to avoid them. online, i'm subbed to one on youtube, haha.
If I may say something, don't give up on your faith just because some people in the church were not good Christian examples to you. Please remember that the church is not a museum of saints, but a hospital of sinners.
i've been lost nearly all my life, i never really knew what i wanted, but God has always answered my prayers from getting to school, college, grad school, and a dream job. and now that things kinda got harder, i actually really dunno what i want to do in life (again) but i'll try to be still for i know God is walking together with me.
i needed that, and im 16 and drowning in homework. I feel like that the homework is what God wants me to do, overcome this trial for God.
"Our certainty is not that He tells us what to do every step, our certainty is that He is with us"
Beautiful message.
(Idk how I'm coming across this videos 8yrs later, but that's just what God does)
God lead me to your videos that's for sure
I am so glad that our priests are making videos like this. Thank you father Mike for taking your time to do this. its really helpful. Please pray for us. Stay blessed.
Thank you God for giving me peace and clarity with this video and Fr. Mike for being the messenger. I'm been worried for so many years that I'm going to chose the wrong vocation. I just have to trust in God, he will lead me.
The Lord talks to us if we just listen ❤
One thing we can be absolutely certain about in following the Lord’s will….it’s Glorifying Him, no matter what.
God wanted me to listen to father Mike Schmitz today. So here I am🙏😊🕊👋
I absolutely love his energy and spark.
God wants you to be happy, you could have been so many things, God does not tell you what you should be, we all make choices with the paths that we choose!😊
After 60 years of torment, abuse and trials beyond my ability to cope, the message rings weak though I believe it to be sensible and true.
William Gratchic please do not give up! The lord is with you, even when we are suffering. Here are 2 videos from father Mike as well, talking about why bad things occur in our lives, and the meaning of suffering:
Why does God allows bad things to happen
th-cam.com/video/0NOTU1g0Z8w/w-d-xo.html
The meaning of suffering
th-cam.com/video/tR25hk8NVio/w-d-xo.html
I hope these videos will be of help to you. And by the way, I think it is better for you to find help from your local priest, or other people you trust if you are being abused, because that seems to be very serious😰 God bless
MAY YOUR SUFFERING BE OVER
We love you, Faher Mike and Ascension Presents. God in Heaven, help us all.
This was so simple yet so profound. I love it. I've often felt I'm not doing enough or I'm disappointing God and often ask what should I be doing. This was just what I needed to hear today. Amen.
This video popped up on my feed. It is an answer to prayer.
THANK YOU..!
Word.
That's the greatest news: God is always with you.
VIOLA!!! When we continue to walk in uncertainty that is when we truly TRUST! ***********
Raise your hand if you straight up NEEDED this!!!🙋♂️
Amen 🙏🏻 , God bless you Fr. Mike and everyone here ..
You always impress me. You are a beautiful person. Love from Egypt brother. Your a good one.
Hello From India 😃Thank you so much sharing all these videos. It really did help me to know God better. God Bless you. keep up the good work 😂
Beautiful! And God is most certainly with you Father Mike. Be Blessed!!!!!
Thank you Father Mike. May God bless you always. 🙏 Praying for you.
Great video, Fr. Mike! I have strongly felt God leading me down the path to become a pilot this past year, and am currently wrapping up training for my Private's, but after the first week or so I discerned that I wasn't cut out for this kind of career. Since then, training has been very hard because I feel like I don't know what do do next after I leave home. Your video opened my eyes up to the very simple truth that we just have to wait for God and be content with uncertainty, regardless of how disconcerting it may feel. God bless you and your ministry!
So glad this has helped, Gregory! Please know of our prayers for you!
I realize this is an old video but it came up today at the perfect time.
Father Mike, I remember watching this is 2015. And now today, again. I have to tell you that this video is anointed. I felt as though you were looking right at me and that we were sitting having a visit. Thank you so much for reminding me that all through these years and now and in the future, that very truly God is here, with me and deep down, I KNOW what He is saying to me. Follow, just follow. I have got this.
one important thing God wants us to learn is to be patient. Patience is very crucial in our lives because He does the "right thing" not whenever but on the "right time". Do good. Wait for His command. Follow Him in little things that He might use you for greater things.
THis really helped today, right now. At this very moment... THis is what I needed!
tHANK YOU GOD! Thank You Fr. Mike! Thank you YOuTUbe!
"God will not ask you to answer a question He has not asked of you yet." So profound...more food for thought!!
Took me a long time to figure this out and you just confirmed it for me. Praise be to Jesus Christ 😊🙏❤️
Thank you
I was so confused but the end of the video got me understanding. Thank you and god bless in Jesus Christ name amen 🙏🏼
This one presentation confirms the simple brilliance of Christianity and the Body of Christ that is the Catholic Church.
I only watch one video per day, 5 minutes gives me enough to meditate the rest of my day. Thank you God!
Wow, this comes at a time when I feel like I am in the dark. Don't know what's going to happen here at work with my job (if I even have one in the near future). Thanks, Father Mike, for this powerful reminder!
Never will i leave you, never will i forsake you - hebrews 13:5
Thank you so much for this video Father Mike!
Wow! This is very powerful. Thank you Fr. Mike and the whole Ascension Presents team 🙏
I simply need to hear this today. Thank you, Father.
"I will be with you!" 😭 Amen
Thank you Fr. Mike. Your message was very helpful at a very difficult time of my life. I can use all the guidance and prayers I can get...
These videos on discerning God's will and one's vocation are a true blessing, indeed!
Thank you, Fr. Mike Schmitz, and thank you, Ascension Presents!
Thank you Father!
GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!! I NEEDED TO HEAR THIS TODAY! GOING TO MASS TOMORROW FOR THE FIRST TIME IN LIKE A YR ! ❤ PRAY FOR ME PLEASE
This helped me so much Father! Thank you so much. I feel like I've been wandering in the desert for 40 years! Literally!
Every time I go to another consulting assignment, I’d realize that from the previous assignment or even from 2 assignments ago, I will need to use the knowledge that God had allowed me to learn then at the present assignment. He prepares me! I’ve always been amazed. When we pay attention, we learn God’s pattern in our life. ❤
Fr. Mike, could you make a video on exorcisms? That would be interesting
No need. There are more than enough demonic people around anyway.
that was amazing word. also, HOW BEAUTIFUL IS FR.MIKE?!?!?!?
This came at the perfect time, I feel like I've been called to do something. I know what I have to do with my life. Thank you for this. God bless.
Jesus is with you God is for you God bless
Hi Fr Mike, video request -- can you please speak on attachment to sin? Particularly identifying attachments we may not be aware of and how to break free from said attachments? Thank you!
Thanks for the suggestions, Jeni!
I'll give you the short answer, first answer attachment to sin is when we allow ourselves to entertain the thought of whatever the sin is and then we act on it.
To break from it and this is the only way is to build your life around prayer because the enemy can stand it and it will leave you.
Purchase the Book: Sermons of Saint Alphonsus Liguori.....read the chapter on re-curring mortal sinners. Also you should be praying the 15 decade rosary EVERY DAY.
You are definitely tapped in, tuned in, and turned on to the joy and love of God! Not only can I see the joy in your presence but I can feel it my heart. Bravo 👏🏻!
God Bless you Father Mike - I really needed to hear this TODAY!! of all days - perfect timing - Thank You!!!!
As a woman who has struggled with the question of what I should do this helped. Thank you.
I needed to hear this message today. Thank you Father Mike! God bless you!
Fr. Schmitz, You make me laugh, you make me think, you help me pray better. May God continue to bless you! May God forever bless you and help us to continue to learn and grow more faithful to Jesus through our thoughts and actions!
I watched this video at just the right moment. I was recently questioning why the post-exodus Israelites kept challenging and questioning God when He was right there, visible to them.
God bless all of you and Mama Mary pray for us Amen
thank you father
Thank you, Father Mike!!!!
Excellent Father! Thank you!
~💜 ✝️ 💜~ thank you for this message.
Thanks Fr Mike,God bless you and everyone.
Oh, I have no words. God spoke through you to me. Thank you, Father Mike.
Father Mike I love your videos. They really were helpful during my conversion, thank you!
👏👏👏Thank you Fr. Mike!!!💕
I was ready for this message today. Whew! It's so true, I have been "told" when to move, and when to turn. I just was getting antsy. "Sit puppy, stay!" Yup, strengthening the roots of faith and trust. 🙏
I've been watching Fr. Mike's videos for more than a year now. How is it that I just saw this? I totally needed to see this but I'm still soooo confused and I'm so scared. :(
so glad you are enjoying! Do not be afraid!
Thank you so much! Isn't it nice to know that we aren't alone? Praying for you too!
Pray for me too guys
from a penticostal this is good ...i so glad the lord led me to you
this was some truly inspired advice and guidance. it was exactly what i needed to hear, and i’ll remember it when i’m feeling those pressures and anxieties about the future. thanks fr. mike!
Father Mike, I love the way you explain things 🙏💕🙏😇
Well worded! I love the comparison with the tents and Moses in Exodus.
This was lovely!
Thank you so much.
THANK YOU JESUS! This was so good! 🔥🔥🔥🙏🏾
Thanks for this video Father!! :)
God bless everyone and have a good day ❤
Yr definitely a really cool man of God. Thanks man!
This helped so much, Fr Mike. Thank you. I’ve converted recently and all that really was revealed to me and I’m so eager to do more, I have so many God-given gifts… but there is nothing. All I hear is silence. Nothing tugs. Even things I thought I would want after baptism. I had a beautiful vision, I felt a gods presence all the time and after baptism, everything quieted down. He has heard my prayers, I’ve seen things happen, but it’s so quiet. I read the psalms, some of them asking if God will hide forever… I feel this incredible longing to be with Him… to do his work and walk with him never faltering. But sometimes I even feel my faith slipping. I didn’t think it would be this hard. But I have decided to be faithful regardless. I’m nothing without him. I lived in the world as an atheist… drinking, foul language, disregard for people, disregard for religion, disregard for Gods law, thinking I was the end all, be all… I was a fool and there was nothing there. By Gods grace and patience alone I survived. I wish he would pick me up like The Little Flower, and take me, but I also want to honor Him here.
Sorry about tolhe long ramble… don’t even know if anyone will read this. But, this helped a lot.
This is so amazing! Waw, I only discovered this channel two days ago and I'm amazed every time again of the beauty of all this!
This video helped to my epiphany moment, God wanted me to see this 4 Years later because i wasn't ready to move on yet but I guess now is the time when I can say Jesus is Lord!!
Do good ,love justice , and walk humbly with thy God. Hope I can remember that. Maybe print a T-shirt with that logo.
I think I know my calling, only the path is not so clear to me.
I wish for the Lord to give me the courage needed for my journey.
