I don't know why but I thanked God today while I washed my face. This year was filled with regret and self pity for me. I increased my sins instead of praying more and trusting in God more. I thought I had it figured out but destiny came back biting harder and I lost. Even through all that mess I'm still following Christ and today has been an eye opener that God has blessed me with the fruit of my works and I'm going to enjoy my day and not worry about my stupid ugly thoughts. I'm gonna drink a cold beer and enjoy a nice tasty meal and buy myself some cookies. I even plan on going to confession and beginning again to a better life. I will love my God and I will worship God more than ever. Merry Christmas to anyone who is feeling like they lost the battle. Remember God is faithful if you confess and he hasn't abandoned us.

It's funny. I was so preoccupied by uncertainty earlier today. I've been Google-ing and reading articles and other sites concerning a multitude of my worries. Housing, income, relationships, etc. Then, this video comes along. I'm still anxious about the future and it's definitely uncertain, but those worries are a bit muted now. This is by far the best Christmas gift I've received today. Thank you, Fr. Mike. God bless you all in Ascension Presents and have an amazing Christmas!

josh portie I’m sorry you’re hurting so deeply that you thought the day after *Christmas* was a good time to troll Fr. Mike’s channel. I pray that Our Lord will heal what ever brokenness you have that would possess you to lash out and show who 🖤you really are. I love the Lord and *I believe EVERY word He said*. Unlike Protestants, I don’t pick and choose what I like and don’t to accommodate *my own interpretation* of what He meant. If you truly believed ALL that He said you wouldn’t be a heretic and you’d be pointing people in the right direction. I pray that you will eventually learn the truth and stop attempting to use hate to claim you’re a disciple of Christ Jesus. I follow Jesus Christ and because of my profound love of Him ...I will wish you peace. See that’s how it’s done. 🖤Romans 16:17-18 Pax Christi, Deena

Thank you for this video. This is literally the saddest day of the year for me for the last six years of my life. I appreciate the encouragement because I have no one to share it with and to celebrate with. And this year is one of the most uncertain years of my life approaching. In fact last night at 1 in the morning after Mass I asked the priest about rcia classes for the first time in my. Not sure where this going to lead but I know that things in my life have to change and I know that that scares me because the future is uncertain. And I have no one in my life I can walk with through this. Again thank you for this video unless very lonely day of where I have a family who does not want anything to do it has disowned me and I can't go home. Thank you God bless you and your team over an assention presents

No one came to visit. I took some flowers to my next door neighbor, but noticed that they are gone for the week. I cannot go home, either, since there is no one there anymore. Please, please join with me to place your heart at the foot of the cross, and offer to Jesus. That very act takes the grief off your shoulders. Give it a try, please, and let me know how it works. Uncertainty can be rewarding,

You have no idea how much I needed this video! My pillow was soaked in tears from crying so much the other night over the worry and fear I've been consumed with about the future. My husband was hit by a drunk driver back in October and thank God he's alive but he's been out of work and has neck, and back pain. Plus my 23 yr old son suffers from a rare, painful vascular malformation in his left leg. I'm worried about his future, I don't know if he'll be able to work, have a family and have a normal full life. I don't understand why he was born with this. It's been so hard seeing any joy or hope. God led me to this video. Thank you for this gift. God bless you Fr Mike!

GOD put HIS words on you, father Mike. Like "A Catholic Wife" in the comment below. I have been through a physical "attack (fever and deprive of sleep two days due to cramps at night)" This was from Friday 20 to Sunday 22. I missed Sunday´s Holy Mass. Today I felt a lot better, but as soon as I took the car, I went completely overwhelmed by weakness and shakes. The Holy MASS was just before Consecration. I stayed. I Had Communion and went to another church despite the "shaking & trembling" and I heard the complete Holy Mass and had Communion again. I Came back home and "Fight Back" trying to calm myself by praying "The Liturgy Of The Hours" and some distractions in between but Sunken in the uncertainty of what was going to happen to me Now that I Feel So High Spiritually but physically "Cracking Up Heavily". So OUR LORD JESUS put HIS Answer on You. PRAISE To JESUS. Merry Christmas Blessed Father Mike.

Such a beautiful message. Thank you. This holy season of God's birth, I reflect on the glorious blessings I received in the past when God gave me my husband, Gene, and his unconditional love. Now, Gene has died, and I am left here in a void. I pray for his soul and face an uncertain future. Yes, I have lost much, but now, I realize the certainty of God's love and I feel his presence more acutely. Mary's obedience is an example for me of how to live the rest of my life doing God's will. I have no need for certainty about future events here on earth when I have the promise of eternal salvation purchased by the blood of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

I just got interested in Christianity, Bible and religion this year, I find it very intetesting. Just reading the Bible on my own, a few pages everyday, started on summer with an app, and bought my first paper one yesterday (an interconfessional one, fruit of a common ground agreed between catholics and protestants, it seemed a good first approach for a first timer like I). I enjoy it along watching videos like yours. I wanna say thanks. P.S.: for anyone wondering, the other 2 youtubers are Jordan Peterson (professor) and The Beat (that is a protestant channel)

You're right, I and many other people are facing and suffering from uncertainty but today, like everday, is Christmas. Everyday is another day in which we can acknowledge the presence of God on this earth, through the Holy spirit. each day is a blessing because God allowed his son to sacrifice himself for us. I hope God forgives us for embracing uncertainty and our lack of faith in him. He has a plan and has given us this plan for our lives through the bible. Until I master the teachings of the bible I have no right to be uncertain. Until I have done all the things our heavenly father has asked, I should not say I am lost.

Benedictia Bovas - it’s a catholic apostolic Marian movement. It’s quite recent, just celebrated the first 100years in 2014. There can be so much said about Schoenstatt... Ok, first and foremost, a family where everyone in their life state strives to be saint and this ideal guides and shapes their life. So you find groups of men, families, mothers, single women, priests, pilgrims,... and even hermits. The point is that everyone’s charisma and gifts have a place in this family, just as in the Mother Church. It’s a family of families (those named groups) in the bigger family, the Church. God led this movement life, through its founder - Father Jospeh Kentenich- to offer our beloved Church a secure way to His arms in these challenging times. Schoenstatt, in its spirituality specificities, has concrete answers to our times. I would encourage you to find more information about Schoenstatt’s spirituality. Nevertheless anything on the life of Father Kentenich is a great reading and stimulus. Ok, I will stop now because it’s quite long already. Hope it helped. I’ll try to find some helpful link and leave it here. May God bless 🙏🏼 ❤️

Well I saw this a couple of days after Christmas! But that is okay, I really think God planned it that way, because I was able to reflect on this Christmas and the past, and really soak in your words, Father Mike! Joy in uncertainty, powerful words! I pray for joy this year even in uncertainty. Thank you, God bless you!
