Dear Father Mike; I don't know how you do it. Thank you for a message that is what I needed to hear at this exact time. Thank you for helping so many people see the light in their lives. You are such are God send. Great job.
Wonderful and timely homily. I asked for prayers for my husband Steve last Sunday and received 35 prayer intentions from you. We were overwhelmed by your outpouring of love and sharing this season of life with us. Life is bearable when we are not alone and knowing God is with us. Thanks to all of you. ❤❤ This first week following cancer treatment went well.
Losing hope. Jesus please give me strength I seem to bear the weight of the world on my shoulders as a single mom, I often face challenges that can seem insurmountable especially with raising two children with special needs. I won’t give up but Lord I’m so discouraged. I’m trying to balance everything but Lord I’m struggling to make ends meet, to pay bills, and to put food on the table for my children. Jesus hear my prayers and please continue to give me strength.❤️💕
I wanted to let you know I’m sorry that you’re facing such a tough time. I also was a single mom, but I had a lot of help from my mom and my dad. I want you to know that on this day I am saying prayers for you and your children I hope that you feel a touch of God, God may not change your situation, but he can help you get through it. Praise God.
Praying for you! I know we'll the struggles of raising 3 children with special needs....financially, physically, emotionally and spiritually. You can't do it alone. But thankfully God's grace is always there and it is enough. He will provide all that you need and He will never leave you. God is good all the time.
I just got over a bad case of Covid, spending a week in the hospital. In the midst of the 3 weeks -at times I thought I would never recover. And afterwards I was very depressed. Finally I feel better and even went to mass yesterday. Thank you, God, for healing me.
Fr. Mike, you nailed it!! Thank you! I was feeling defeated and hopeless this morning ….after receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation, celebrating Mass,receiving Jesus and listening to your homily….I’m just in the desert, and Lord you are with me♥️
@sallymcraestrength when God talks to you by mentioning your favorite thing and favorite runner to teach you to not quit in the middle!!! Such a special homily ❤️
I just finished half of the video but had to pause and type here before finishing up the video. Fr. Mike, you are amazing. Your speech is always good. Thanks God for giving you to us!
Really needed to hear this today. Thank you Fr Mike. Thank you Abba Father. God did not lead us here to die. Don’t quit halfway. God is here, God is good. The only way out is through. HE will lead us through 🙏🏻
Lord bless me with Insight - so I can see you guiding and guarding me every moment ❤ Lord bless me with Grace to help those who needed You, those who cannot see beyond their pain and sorrows My Lord and My God I Trust in You 🙏
Oh Father Mike, I really needed to hear this homily today. I'm standing in the middle of the desert again and I know God brought me here and will walk me out. He's brought me to the desert before many times, but each time is a little more difficult (health). Each time this happens I feel my relationship with God is deeper. This time I've called out many times for him to help me. One thing I do know is that he is with me and for that, I am blessed and grateful
My highlights, thank you father: "Trust that sees isn't trust. Hope that has what it hopes for, isn't hope". "Exodus is a macro cosmo of life". "The only way out is through" 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🙌. And God IS with us ❤️🥺🙏🙏💪💪💪 🙏AMEN🙏
Wow! How timely that your reading would be exactly where I am in my morning Bible study, Exodus chapter 16, and how perfectly succinct your msg comes to me this day (thank You Holy Spirit). After the death of my marriage I almost perished; resided in the valley thereafter for over a year, and now am finding my way through its confusing wilderness of my life, alone. Thank you Father for your guiding light msg of hope this morning. Together with a visiting pastor’s sermon msg today at a local church I am attending, which was holding on to the past, instead of releasing it to GOD in faith, for a promising future ahead together with Him, and through Christ our Lord ( amen). Be blesses Fr. Mike, and thank you again.
Thank you for this very helpful homily! When I was a child we were taught to "do our best and trust God to do the rest". I am still learning that lesson, especially in the difficult times. Thank you!
Thank you Father Mikefor being a great light in our darkness, for praying for us and filling our hearts with sacred scripture. May God continue to bless you and your priesthood praying for you every single day as well as my rosary🙏✝️🙏
Thank you father Mike. I Always listen to you every day. You're amaze priest, God bless you. Thank you to dedicate totally your life to God in the church. I'm living in Rome. I pray for you. Gid bless you my brother.
Father Mike, My Faith and Trust in God help me see my path. My current path is filled with many challenges. Nevertheless, I am grateful for God's resources. I try my best to be a good stewart for His gifts. I agree with you, God has not abandoned me. I know He is with me. Thank you for your message.❤
Jesus I trust in You. It has to mean something or its empty words. When a parent stands in the pool and their child stands on the edge, staring at those waiting outstretched arms, the parent has this little ache in their heart when the child just cant jump, cant trust that it will be OK. Imagine Gods ache when we dont trust. Yes, think things through, use our brains, but there will be times we get to the edge of the pool and the only way forward is that scary leap into Gods open arms. That's when "Jesus I trust in You" means something.
It PLEASED GOD to create us and to save us by HIS free grace through faith not of works (Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV) Revelation 4:11 KJV "YOU are worthy, O LORD, to receive glory and honor and power: for YOU have created all things, and for YOUR PLEASURE they are and were created." Ephesians 1:3 KJV "Blessed be the GOD and FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, WHO has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in Heavenly places in CHRIST: 4 according as HE has chosen us (true believers) in HIM before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before HIM in love: 5 having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by JESUS CHRIST to HIMSELF, according to the good PLEASURE of HIS will, 6 to the praise of the glory of HIS grace, wherein HE has made us accepted in the beloved. 7 in WHOM we have redemption through HIS blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of HIS grace." In case you didn't notice...all things are of GOD...not the sinner.
Father Mike, you always seem to come through when I need it most. My journey into the desert began on June 5th 1991. My journey from there to here confirms the truth in what you have said. To hear your words is one thing but to have been and continue to be where I am has even more meaning. I’ve wanted to do many times what you say not to do. To quit the race. I’ve wanted so many time to do exactly that. I know I can’t return to “Egypt” and that the only direction is forward. When I look back I see how many times God showed up the next day with miracles, I know how blessed I am. I was a police officer when this began so I think I have a different perspective of how crazy and unjust this world can be. If anyone doubts your words then I can say without reservation that what you speak is the truth and not just some empty words to get us through the day. I thank God for you and many others who do the difficult and often thankless job of saving souls. God bless you and your ministry
I got lens replacement surgery instead of lasik. It’s amazing to see so clearly after a life of “thinking” I was seeing. Get lens replacement; much better than lasik.
I was homeless, did drugs, went into prison, where I got to know God. He changed my life. Now I have a home, a wife and a lovely year old daughter (zoe), and a stream of income that gats me $47,000 weekly. Plus a new identity - a child of God, Hallelujah!!!🇺🇲❣️♥️❤️
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Kate Elizabeth Becherer) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
I've always wanted to trade Crypto for a long time but the volatility in the price has been very confusing to me although I have watched a lot of TH-cam videos about it but I still find it hard to understand.

Thank you Fr. Mike, what a joy it is to hear your insight into God. I truly feel closer to God.
Thank you Fr Mike, your homilys gives a sense of Peace 🙏❤️
Please pray for Venezuela, they are going through the desert these days 🙏🙏
Fr.Mike...Your homilies are the best. You are the best. May the Lord bless you abundantly in your priestly ministry services. ❤🙏
Thank you Fr. Mike for another inspiring homily; God has not abandoned me...a message of hope, and never quit in the middle.
Thanks Mike😊

Jesus is the light at the end of the tunnel. Offer your sacrifices to him to join it to his passion and keep getting closer to his light. ❤
Thank you Father Mike! I’m in the middle and going thru!!❤
I just got over a bad case of Covid, spending a week in the hospital. In the midst of the 3 weeks -at times I thought I would never recover. And afterwards I was very depressed. Finally I feel better and even went to mass yesterday. Thank you, God, for healing me.
I am so happy that you are better! I will pray for you.

thank you .... setting today a point in my life.... finally in my 70's
Always on time!
@sallymcraestrength when God talks to you by mentioning your favorite thing and favorite runner to teach you to not quit in the middle!!! Such a special homily ❤️
I needed this encouragement today. I am 'in the middle.' I don't know where I am being led, but I'm trusting that it will be worth the trial.
Same. Praying for you ❤
I just finished half of the video but had to pause and type here before finishing up the video. Fr. Mike, you are amazing. Your speech is always good. Thanks God for giving you to us!

Thank you Fr. Mike, I really needed this message! God Bless.
Really needed to hear this today. Thank you Fr Mike. Thank you Abba Father.
God did not lead us here to die.
Don’t quit halfway.

My Lord and My God I Trust in You 🙏
Thank you Fr. That's the truth I needed to hear, TRUST.
Thank you Lord for you mercy and patience with me
Every time Father Mike sighs in pause, what I hear in him is 'If only you knew how much God loves you, specifically you."
Always good. Thank you for the reminders
One of my favorite Robert Frost quotes, used in childbirth multiple times. Thank you.
Thank you! 🙏🏻
I needed this. Thank you, Father Mike.
Thank you Fr. Mike, you have no idea how much you have inspired myself and everyone around me with your homily. Thank you once again and God bless!
Amen!
Sight and mobility are two gifts we should be grateful to be given.
This changed me ❤
Thanks Fr Mike. Words I needed to hear this morning.
Father Mike,
Today’s homily was what I need it to keep going. God bless you for everything you do for the church.
Oh Father Mike, I really needed to hear this homily today. I'm standing in the middle of the desert again and I know God brought me here and will walk me out.

My highlights, thank you father:

"Exodus is a macro cosmo of life".
"The only way out is through" 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🙌. And God IS with us ❤️🥺🙏🙏💪💪💪
🙏AMEN🙏
wow God just spoke to me
Killed it with this one Father Mike
Amen ❤
Love it Fr. Mike. We are truly lead by the Father because he has a good plan for us. Jer 29:11.
I needed to hear this message today. ❤
Thanks Fr Mike, and all who make this Sunday Mass possible. Thanks for the encouragement, I'm facing eye surgery this coming year. God Bless. Claire.
Wow! How timely that your reading would be exactly where I am in my morning Bible study, Exodus chapter 16, and how perfectly succinct your msg comes to me this day (thank You Holy Spirit).

Jesus loves you and is with you
As w the men of Exodus 90 prepare to read the book of Tobit for St. Michael’s Lent, this homily on sight and suffering is apropos. Thank you Fr. Mike.
I really needed this reminder
Wow ❤🥹
Thank you for this very helpful homily! When I was a child we were taught to "do our best and trust God to do the rest". I am still learning that lesson, especially in the difficult times. Thank you!
Thank you for your words! ❤
God Bless!

Amazing homily. Bless be our amazing God
Thank you Father, I needed to hear your words.
One day at a time this works very well.
💙 God bless us all 💙
When Father said, God, give me foresight so that I don't have to trust, my mind just lost its grip on anxiety.
Thank you, Father. I need to hear this. Your homilies are so powerful
Father Mike Wishing you a Blessed week ahead ❤
AMEN!!!
I’ve had SLE with CNS for more 3 5 years… we had 3 children…we have had to live … trusting Christ Jesus… we faltered…it’s easy to want thethank you

I really need this message.
This was a great way to teach about true trust and hope in the Lord. Well said!
Thank you Fr. Mike for this beautiful message I needed to hear this today. Love you and God Bless 🙏♥️

That's when "Jesus I trust in You" means something.
Thank you Fr.Schmitz 🙏🏼

Thank you Father Mike Schmitz, God bless you Father

Was so meant to hear this today...what you said Father Mike has given me enormous clarity...Bless you!

Love you, Father Mike!

I remember being where you are, I did go to doctors and lawyers medicine medication at some stage, I just wanted to be left alone,
Thanks!
More about not wasting time than worry. Imagine investing in or doing something for decades and turns out it’s the wrong direction all along 😵💫
Old man Father Mike? God bless you...
I got lens replacement surgery instead of lasik. It’s amazing to see so clearly after a life of “thinking” I was seeing. Get lens replacement; much better than lasik.

@WilliamHangyThanks to Kate Elizabeth Becherer
I always appreciate God for his kindness upon my life
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Kate Elizabeth Becherer) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
I have heard a lot of wonderful things about Kate Elizabeth Becherer on the news but didn't believe it until now. I'm definitely trying her out
I've always wanted to trade Crypto for a long time but the volatility in the price has been very confusing to me although I have watched a lot of TH-cam videos about it but I still find it hard to understand.

You can be doing God's will right now, so long as you desire it. The present moment is correct for your spiritual healing. You might not like it.
