To What Does Your Heart Belong? - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.พ. 2022
- Friends, when our heart belongs to anything in this world, we live in an empty and lifeless spiritual space. But when our heart belongs to the Lord, the rest of our life falls into right order around that center. Our readings this week raise a crucial question: To whom-or to what-does your heart belong?

In whom the god of this world hath BLINDED THE MINDS of them which BELIEVE NOT, lest the light of the glorious GOSPEL OF CHRIST, who is THE IMAGE of God, should shine unto them.
Luke 4:15-23
King James Version
15 And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.
16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,
18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath ANOINTED me to preach the GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to THE BLIND, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.
22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?
23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, HEAL THYSELF: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.

Eid Mubarak brother. Thank you for your example of prayer, faithfulness, fasting, and charity.
Michael, very courageous of you to say this. See ya on the High Ground!
@@MRizzio why? And where is the high ground?
Even after realizing that only by giving our hearts to God we can be truly fulfilled, we're still being dragged constantly away by the lures of this world and the occasional frustrations of life. Thank you for the consistent and regular spiritual reminders Bishop, that only by putting God first and foremost we are truly alive.
I loved this sermon
If I give my heart to God my life is fulfil. Good thing to meditate on.
Yes, great sermon and much to reflect on. The Christian life is not an easy road, as warned by Jesus. We must pray for endurence to finnish the race.
Very true john
The life of J.O.Y. Jesus 1st .. Others 2nd .. You (self) 3rd (last) ... Love your teachings Bishop you are such a blessing to so many of us.
I want my heart to belong to God alone but I am oftentimes distracted. Help me O Lord to offer my entire heart and soul to you. Amen.
Amen!
Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you, Bishop Barron. I am constantly dumbfounded by how clearly and gently the Holy Spirit speaks through you. I truly pray that the Lord continue to bless and protect you.

Bp. Barron is to evangelical catechesis as Dave Ramsey is to personal finance. Practical, knowledgeable, analytical, prescriptive, empathetic.
To paraphrase Jesus' words in Matthew 19, giving your heart to God is impossible for man but for God everything is possible. Even Jesus' own apostles knew they couldn't do it on their own.
Amen
Bless you Bishop Barron ❤
💟..from Indonesia..Praise to LORD JESUS..😇🙏
Bishop I’m doing my BEST. it is all I got. I trust God will take it and do the needful to make it what He intends.
Amen 🙏
Love of the Lord our God is the purest love, not dependant on wordly goods, not transitory, not up and down as suits our fancy but steadfast, revered anf full of the purest unchanging love, love of God is eternal, everlasting, it is an unending search and fulfillment.
Couldn’t be more perfect
Père céleste, nous vous louons, nous vous aimons, nous vous faisons confiance 🙏🏻💜🕊
Dear Lord let nothing else come before you.
My Lord and my God...come Holy Spirit come. Please give me a sinner a undivided heart. Bishop Barron praying for please continue to pray for us...

Thank you bishop Barron for all words in Christ how become flesh and blood..Wellcome too Sweden!! Mvh Birgitta Brandström Nurse and catolik.
Great message!
Thank you so much Bishop for this homily. Sometimes I don’t realize that the deepest centre of the heart has to be entirely for the Lord… no tiny bit for anything or anyone else
Thank you Bishop
Bishop Barron, you are a gift from God! Your gift for sharing your wisdom is an inspiration for all.
We look forward to your Sunday sermons every week. Truly giving our hearts to God is a lifelong struggle
since we are human, constantly being lured by the temptations of the world.
Thank you!
Bishop Barron I love your sermons, they speak to my heart. Thank you so much.
Only God will change this troubled World. If we don't let him we will all finish... IN HEL
To our lord Jesus christ, and our father-god my heart belongs too

The best sermon I had ever heard. Brilliant and beautiful.
Thank you! Thank you.
Needed this today. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Bishop Barron.It’s indeed true, our hearts dry up if we place our hearts and trust in men. I don’t want to be stuck in the desert.
God bless you too Bishop !
Amen, Thank you Lord. From Bangladesh.
Praised and blessed be Jesus Christ forever and ever. 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you again for a beautiful sermon which comforts us all. We can all hope and trust in our blessed Lord, because He alone will never leave us 🙏🏻❤️ My heart belongs to the Lord 😊
Dear Bishop Baron,
God bless you.
Through your words God was talking to me.
Specifically today I need to hear it.
Thank you Bishop Barton for being you. Your words help bring the direction and focus to the Lord's message. God bless you and all.
I needed this, especially today. Yesterday I had the opportunity to be like Jesus and completely to the right thing and be truly and fully kind to someone. Yes, I did help, but what I realized afterward, the thru my own selfishness, I failed to completely follow thru the way I should have. And only afterward did I realize I missed the opportunity to please the Lord by being the person he would have preferred me to be.
Yes, I was kind, but nowhere near what could have been. Please forgive me lord.
I love this man. Bless him. He has helped turn my life around.
Wonderful, so I move without fear and my Heart is rooted deep in my God, and guided by the Holy Spirit gifted from the love of Jesus.
Bishop Barron,
Your words are life
Please don't ever change, 😘
My heart belongs to the Lord. To dear Bishop Barron, thank you for your wisdom, it enlightens me to hear your homily. May God bless you always.
wow that tree parable shakes my entire soul
Thank You Bishop, I adore your enthusiasm as you bring to life scripture and the message of Christ, our Lord. It’s now apart of my daily devotional, to which I thank you! God Bless
Brilliant. Thank you Bishop Barron.
Amen.
Thank you Bishop B. 🙏🏿
Deep faith and facts of life are brought out in your preaching.
Im from germany and love your videos! Please go on. And a big thank you!
Amen
Thats all I need to hear.
Yes!
Thank you. Your homilies give me greater faith.
My heart belongs to God ❤️
It is so easy to get caught up in all things of society, but I must constantly pray to keep grounded in the Lord.
May we desire a
‘single-heart’ that belongs to God.
Then through His Grace,
all other associations will center around our LORD 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Well said! The 1st Commandment has not been rewritten.
Good one thank you
Thank you so much, Bishop Barron, for such a wonderful homily. You are so right; it’s all about where our focus is and about what is most important to us in the depths of our heart and our soul. May God bless you always, Bishop. I love hearing your homily every Sunday and always look forward to it. 💖💕🌷🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
O789 no

Yes!! Thank you. 🙏
Jesus and my family 🙂
Thank you so much Bishop Barron. I know it is hard to continuously keep us pointed in the right direction, which is completely counter to our present world--but please keep fighting for our salvation. God bless you always.
👉 Bishop Barron 👈 He knows it 🔥
My 💖 belongs 100% to my Lord and God Jesus Christ.
Powerful and profound, Bishop Barron! I needed to hear this today. I don't want to be a dried up trie in a salty, empty earth. God bless you, I thank you for your ministry.
Nothing seems so difficult and so effortless at the same time.
God Bless Bishop Barron!
Beautiful reflection Dear Lordship. Continue to enlighten us with the Spirit filled Reflection
I pray to them when I'm troubled
Viva Cristo Rey!
This sermon couldnt come at a better time. I have committed a sin which i know very well stem from my overt love and adoration toward my boyfriend. This sermon is a very strong reminder in a time when i feel the most unfit to stand in front of The Lord. Even praying these days make me cringe. It is really hard to connect with Him when my heart is divided and untrue. I am trying to pray and hope for strenght and salvation.
Pray! Pray from the heart! Trust in Him! And don't worry!! He loves you in a way incomprehensible to all of us!! Place your open heart before Christ on the Cross. Once you do, allow his mercy to penetrate your whole being. Be patient with him as he is with you!! I'll pray for you!! ❤✝️
Go to reconciliation and be restored to the state of grace. Remember that love at its root is to will the good for the other. True love seeks to keep the beloved far away from sin and idolatry.
Tell God the truth about what it is your heart. Repent and never feel disconnected from God because He always listen to you and will cleanse you
It's not a sin to love you're boyfriend as long as it's grounded in the love of God first and formost
@@annedouglas5308 I don't want to assume or read between lines. But some people dudes and gals. At times feel so in love that they made things they know they shouldn't. Things in many cases are contrary to the word of God all because of this love to the other person.
I'm saying that because I know I have failed in similar ways.
I needed this today and I didn't even know it. Thank you
MAY GOD REVIVE US ONCE AGAIN
The best remedy to REVIVE US AGAIN is to partake in as often as posible in the holy Eucharist & other sacraments✝️👍🏼
I read this: «And he said to me: Prophesy concerning these bones; and say to them: Ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus saith the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will send spirit into you, and you shall live.And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to grow over you, and will cover you with skin: and I will give you spirit and you shall live, and you shall know that I am the Lord.» Ezekiel 37.
Thank you so much Bishop Barron for your sermon on Where Does My Heart Belong ? My heart has and always will belong to God.. I agree that one has to put away all those evil desires that keeps one from keeping their heart clean and let good things keep the heart clean. May God Bless you Bishop Barron. I love your sermons..
Please pray for my daughter Claira who is struggling with drug addiction and definitely needs a change of heart ❤
Prayers for your daughter. Trust and pray. God cannot let you down.
Thank you so much Mary for reminding me to trust in a reliable God!
Blessed are we that are engaged with your homilies and act on them.
I have heard a lot of homilies on the Beatitudes, but no one had ever pointed it out as to my personal choices and consequences of them. Our hearts and first choice should be God.
Bless you Bishop Barron.
Thank you for sharing, Bishop 🙏
Thanks to your team as well.
Every Sunday I hear two Sermons. One where I attend the Mass and the Second is always Bp Barron. I hardly miss his Homily. Thank you Your Grace👌😇😇
Same here 😁
Our priest will sometimes tell us to check out Bishop Barron's sermon. 😀
Ditto. I try and listen to Bishop Barron first. It is a great centering of myself for Mass.
@@rhwinner
That's really great, awesome in fact☆
Bishop's Barron's comments remind me of this very moving statement from Vatican II: "All the faithful of Christ are invited to strive for the holiness and perfection of their own proper state. Indeed they have an obligation to so strive. Let all then have care that they guide aright their own deepest sentiments of soul. Let neither the use of the things of this world nor attachment to riches, which is against the spirit of evangelical poverty, hinder them in their quest for perfect love. " (Article 42, Lumen Gentium)
Thankyou for being so easily available for us . God Bless. I ove hearing your profound interpretations of just about everything. It feeds my soul.
Hallelujah Praise God in our hearts Ty Bishop Barron🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼♥️✌️🦋
Nothing feels like God. I’m yours My Lord, you hold my heart in your Heart, it’s yours. Its always you inside me. All I do that is good is all you, Its not me, it’s you thorough me. I bow only to you and your Love. “Blessed are the single hearted” a true state of being. “Lifting his eyes to us”so overwhelming, help me be worthy Father. We are the instruments of your love. May I share your heart with everyone in my path. Amen Thank you bishop Barron, so much hope, we are swimming in His love. Thank you for watering us, for we are thirsty for wisdom.
If i was god I'd tell you to stop being such a ass licking wet fart
Bishop Barron your sermons touch my being, clearly inspired by the Holy Spirit. Thank you for nourishing my heart and mind.
Amen🙏 I really enjoy your sermons. They always reinforce my patience with both myself and society. Your sermons are the flame in my torch as I walk through the shadows that tempt my heart to go astray. They sharpen my sword's blade as I chose rightousness over fear when enemies are close.
Thank you Bishop Barron for such an enlightening and inspiring message.
to my GOD
This must be my all-time favorite Bishop Barron sermon. Just what my heart needed. I will keep coming back to this. I want to give my heart to God, it’s so difficult but I want it. 🙏🏼 I’ll try to be conscious of where my heart belongs for the whole 2022. God bless everyone going thru the same.

Thank you for a very thought provoking homily
Toronto Ontario Canada
May say that we're all flesh of this world and needs to be born of the holy spirit by opening our hearts to Jesus in order to be of God?
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you !!
One of the most enigmatic passages has been made understandable by Bishop Barren. Almost like Jesus explaining to his disciples what his parables mean.
Place my heart in Your heart Jesus.
So powerful and true! Thank you Bishop 🙏♥️

I never understood the Beatitudes so well as now.
