    "Yes, you have to live the life you're living." And do so with God's love in our heart.

    What stood out to me is when the Priest said DO NOT ELIMINATE CHOICES OUT OF FEAR and GOD DOES NOT SPEAK To Us Through Fear.
    I’m going to be paying more attention to that bc I think I do that! I’m very anxious at time.

    I never understood what that meant. I tried reading about Luisa Picarreta Divine will but I found it more confusing. Father did an excellent job at explaining it in practical terms that we can all understand. Simply to choose the path that doesn't go against God's commandments and most importantly do everything out of love for God and your neighbor. Excellent teaching! Thank you Ken!

    TY for mentioning 'the menu.' My loved one seemingly expects me to KNOW WHERE I'd like to eat out and to know ahead of time what I'll order, when ALL I care about is being thankful we can still afford to eat out, sit & talk, then ultimately share a meal together...✝️

    Probably the most informative video I have watched on this subject. I’ve been struggling to find God’s will in a petition I have been waiting for an answer for. I’m at a crossroads where I’m scared to pray more about it since I fear it may be disobedient or against God’s will. I don’t want to trick myself into believing in a false hope, but I have seen how immense faith pays off in the Bible. Now I understand that we don’t have perfect knowledge, and God will help bring the best out of my prayers even if I still don’t know how he will answer me.

    I heard someone say that God writes straight with our crooked lines, and that really helped me to understand that even if I do make or have made a different decision than what God planned for my life, if I surrender everything to Him, and I'm trying my best, I'm at peace.

    I'm a 28 year-old practicing Catholic still living at home with no kids and not married yet although there is a beautiful woman in my life that I pray I can marry one day because she's been an absolute blessing in my life. I'm also repeating my first semester in nursing school. Feeling down in the dumps and feeling crushed because I seem to be facing more setbacks and frustration than fulfillment enjoy. I find myself struggling in the very same class that I am repeating and have given myself the ultimatum that if I fail another exam I'm going to take the hint and do something else, withdrawing from the program taking the hint that this is not what God wants for me. This video resonated with me so much and father brought up so many amazing points I cannot thank you enough. God bless you

    I'm so grateful for these videos Ken. It's like having a small spiritual direction session with father Christino, he's always so calm and gentle. It helps me enormously...
    Could you perhaps one day talk about bereavement? being widowed at a young age with children under 16? what should be the role of the surviving parent? How to fully accept God's Will? Is it possible to feel happiness/joy again? I'd love to hear father's advice.
    God bless!

    I think the confusion is not only that we don’t believe God loves us but that we don’t know what love is. And we moreso question if we are truly loving God. Most of us doubt we are loving God because we’re sinners so then we also doubt that we are lovable or deserving of love from God and/or others. We are taught by society that love is a “feeling “ or a tangible thing. This is not true love. Feelings are a fruit of love but true love is a decision and much like faith it’s not necessarily something we can “see” or sense (feel) except for the joy that is derived from true love. So simply put, we KNOW God loves us or else He would not have created us or given His Son on the Cross to save us. Jesus died on the Cross knowing we would continue to sin and also knowing that we can NEVER pay Him back for what He’s done. But He did it anyway because He loves us with unconditional (Agape) love! So whether we “feel” the love or not, we can have FAITH in God’s Love for us. We in turn should seek to love Him unconditionally as best we can. But how? Simply by desiring to do so and telling Him often. Love is a choice/a decision. So decide today to love Jesus and tell Him by saying, “I open my heart to You Jesus. I give You Jesus this day because I love You.” And as you go about your day: “I do my job today for You because I love You, I drive today for love of You, I eat with and for You out of Love for You, I make this decision because I love You…..etc” And God will never be outdone in love. Before you know it you will instinctively KNOW that you ARE loved because the fruit of love is joy and peace of soul! Then in everything you do you will WANT to do it to please God and serve others. It becomes part of you and your decisions will be geared towards the same-pleasing God=joy! This will eradicate all fear and hesitation in making decisions and in everything you do. It’s beautiful!

    I am so grateful to Jesus for bringing me to this talk.I have been trying to do what I think is God's will and at times I am disappointed with myself,especially today because I felt I am letting Jesus down because of my negative actions.
    I completed my evening prayer today and was thinking why I do what I do that hurts Jesus who have always loved me.
    Then I happen to see this talk.Somehow something in me wants me to listen to it.
    I am glad I did.
    Jesus has been so kind through the Holy Spirit to allow me to hear your explaination of what I use to ask myself .
    Thankyou Father through Jesus Christ.

    This has been very helpful. Many times because who I am will not allow me to do otherwise. Example, God has given me everything I have, we have money saved for our retirement. Someone in my family asks to borrow some. I loan it to them, but they don’t pay it back. I have learned to be fine with that. God will provide, he has in the past and I believe he will now and in the future.

      The people of the Bible are very lucky
      to have had angels come with direct orders from the Lord, simply because there wasn’t much confusion about what to do. But May we all strive to love the Lord in everything we do.

  • @theresedomladovac7649
    @theresedomladovac7649 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Loved the video. Perfect timing for me. I always felt that Gods will was not what I wanted, not because he didn’t love me but because I wouldn’t be the saint he wants me to be if I got to do what I desired. One day something came to me and it was that I could strive to be a saint no matter what vacation I was in even if it was the one I desired.

  • @lauriewichman5082
    @lauriewichman5082 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you SO MUCH!!!🙏🙏♥️This program helped me so much, My husband and I are devout Catholics and we have been really stuck for the past several years, trying to discern God,s Will about moving. Each of two prospects seemed that we could serve the Lord at either place. I felt that when I thought about where my husband and I felt happiest, that God would not want me to not choose that, but one that would involve more hardship 😔it was making me feel very sad and depressed. Our mission is to serve God and others no matter where we are. Thank you , this clarified my questions and in not believing the lie that God would,t want me to also be Happy in our choices, when our goal is to serve and to Love Him ♥️🙏 I pray as my husband and I move forward we will feel The peace of The Holy Spirit, Jesus is The Prince of Peace.Amen.♥️

    • @patallenhurst3043
      @patallenhurst3043 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Laurie I felt the same way you did. I felt that being happy with my choices was somehow sinful and doesn't lead you closer to sanctification. But now I realized that's not the case as long as you are following God's commandments and doing everything out of love for God. This teaching really helped me to understand.

    What if (Like Father Said here) you have known that you should not have done something and because you ignored your conscience that was screaming at you, and you by doing this committed a mortal sin, now have went to confession but if we at the point of doing it was NOT DOING THE WILL OF GOD FOR OURSELVES, how do we rectify this? How do we forgive ourselves? How do we get back into the Will of God for our Life? 😢🙏🙏😢😢

    • @rosiehannigan6767

    Jesus explained this to the Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta. God is longing to give His Divine Will as a gift to us which Adam enjoyed until he willed to give primacy to his human will over the Divine Will. So, now, you have the chance to "possess" God's Divine Will as a "gift". This is so real and how the Blessed Mother possessed God in a continuous mode even while She was on Earth. In the Wedding at Cana, Jesus's response to Mary did not indicate that He is going to "do" something, but Mary turned to the stewards and told them "Do whatever He tells you". How did She know that Jesus is going to "do" something? The answer is simple; She possessed the gift of the Divine Will. Also, how do you know if the Saints in Heaven are going to give you a shortcut path to get your prayers answered? The answer is simple again; The Saints in Heaven possess the "Will of God" (Well, not independently of their own will but precisely inside of it). We are not engineered to figure out God's Will by the power of our freewill, but as a Son who perpetually lives in the House of the Father uses the gifts of the Father to give Him "Perfect Glory". Perfect glory can only be given by a creature to the Creator when the Creature possesses the perfect Will of God. Since this topic deserves a much greater learning, God chose the "Little Daughter of the Divine Will" to educate us and to return this gift to Humanity. Please research more and please don't give up. John 12:28 - Father, glorify Your name!” Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”

    What about discerning between two extremely hard options, non of which is sinful, but both can be possibly traumatic in effect? People find themselves in such situations as well, where their decisions have hard effect on others, and themselves. This situations can and don't have to be result of previous sinful actions that led them in that place.

    Im having trouble understanding logically how God knows our future from the moment he makes us. If God knew, for instance, how would he permit the soul to be infused if he knew the baby would be aborted? Please dont hate me, I am recently reverted Catholic and im curious. I just want to understand properly
