When your mind is focused on God and on God only, you can’t focus on other’s defects. Sometimes it’s other people’s imperfections that highlights your vices. As an anxious introvert, spending time with my very loud and sinful family is a cross, and I realized I wasn’t patient enough. I have chosen to stay calm, accept their defaults, pray for them and spend more time with them while preaching and now they’re better catholics, praise the Lord. Or this one day I was deeply in adoration in front of the tabernacle and this lady came « whispering » her rosary super loud right next to me, I knew my patience was being tempted because I couldn’t focus well. So I have chosen to stay calm, especially in front of the tabernacle, and went back to my sit even though I would have loved to stay in the presence of my Lord a little more. Things like that, where I am being tested, make me a better catholic. I’m trying to be a saint, so I see temptation as a gift. You can’t wait for others to be perfect to be a saint. You have to accept their defaults and be patient. That’s how you change your vices into virtues. It’s always your will, your choice to overcome temptation and it only makes you spiritually stronger. Also, I’ve realized that I sin only when I am not thinking of Jesus. This is why contemplation is important. Think of Him all the time, especially when you’re tempted, and you won’t fall.

I have the same problem with my family, but what am I supposed to do when one of them is so blatantly sinful and agressive ?
@spicyrosie24 жыл бұрын
gitsum some of the members of my middle eastern family are agressive as well and it’s a lot of suffering. Back then, when I would not accept it, I ended up suffering from 7 years of depression. But now I think of the saints (St Thérèse of Lisieux, St Gemma) and how they asked to suffer because it purifies/sanctifies your soul. It can be a reparation for your past sins. For Thérèse of Lisieux, suffering is a gift. It’s collecting treasures for eternity because in heaven these sacrifices turn into joy you enjoy for eternity. More suffering on earth more joy in heaven (remember the 8 beatitudes). St Teresa of Calcutta said the true way to humility is accepting injustice. My parents are very severe and everything they say would make anyone angry. Sometimes it looks as if they act this way only to make me go crazy. But I just laugh and even ask for more of their unjust reprimands while trying to enjoy these like St Thérèse. Plus, they’re the family God gave me, I have to deal with it with respect and patience in order to help them become saints too. God is just and He will reward us for all these efforts. Finally, remember following Christ is following Him on the cross. An agressive family like St Rita’s husband, is a cross. Take it and embrace it, you’ll be rewarded. Think of saints, read their stories, most of them suffered and had multiple crosses.

I am hyper aware of my kids' behavior in church. Several people have told me they enjoy seeing my family. However, 20+ years ago, I apologized to the elderly man behind me for the kids being rowdy. He chewed me out as if I was doing nothing to curb the wiggles. It has caused me to be more defiant about remaining in the church with my kids, and when I see other parents struggle, it causes me to offer up prayers for them to retain their patience and peace. And I have gone up to them to encourage them to keep bringing the kids. Eventually they learn.

It helps me to see it from my annoyed coworker's point of view, and it reminds me to rise above it and not allow it to take away peace. And I'm hopeful that it'll help sanctify me to move past it and continue to love my annoyed coworker. Great advice to carry in our daily lives! Thanks for making this video!

Makes me think of a really interesting experience from a silent retreat. I'm pretty sensitive when it comes to receiving 'vibes' from others, and I don't know how much of that is kind of real chemistry and how much it's "just me". However, at this retreat there was another person who really got under my skin. Being on a retreat, I brought this up with God, and tried to transform the disturbance into a prayer for that person. But after a few days I almost began feeling stalked. It's like no matter where I went to pray, they'd show up soon after. So I began staying in my room to pray. The other person wasn't noisy or anything, their presence just got to me in a way that made it hard to me to focus. And I couldn't really bring it up, because it was a silent retreat and it would also be rude. Staying in my room was just the best option. But then the last full morning I noticed the other person arriving to breakfast just as I was leaving. So I immediately went to my favorite praying spot of the retreat center. A few minutes later, the other person was there, too, and at that point I really got annoyed. I saw them arrive to have breakfast but then they'd obviously changed their mind. Well, so I prayed a lot for that other person - again - to keep myself from getting all negative about it. And then, when the silence ended the next day, that person came to me and told me that they were so happy to see me again that morning that they'd decided to postpone breakfast to pray close to me: "You were nowhere to be found for several days, but I noticed the first days when we where always praying at the same places, that my prayers were so peaceful and rewarding. I really missed that and tried to find you, so I'm happy I finally did. I'm sure that God was leading me to you. Did you have the same experience?" That was a difficult question to answer because I didn't want to tell them that I got close to the point of feeling stalked and violated. I was relieved that I wasn't sending them "f*ck off"-vibes but it was a bit scary to learn that they'd followed me because I somehow enhanced their prayers while I basically just felt disturbed. So I guess that although I agree that we can choose how to react, we can't just choose how we feel - only how we deal with what we feel. And when we can feel annoyed by one person and not another one doing the same it might not be just a matter of our own choices but also some differences in these "vibes" between people.

Dear Father Mike! Thank you for this great video. Your point of having a choice to take a decision to not to be annoyed is really helpful for me. I missed one point though, and this is that we have a sponsor in heaven our best friend JC who we can ask for help in prayer to give us the strength to decide not to be annoyed. I think this helps with two things: (1) we get help in challenging moments and (2) we learn that it is not by our strength (alone) that we become saints. Maybe you said it and I missed it. I'm pretty sure you know that and live like that, but maybe not all of your viewers do. Greetings from Austria. Many blessings and keep up the great work. Really love your program.

Can totally relate...I suffer from misophonia disorder. It was only triggered really by a certain way my mom would pronounce certain words. It absolutely killed me and I never told her because I didn't want her to feel uncomfortable around me, I loved her too much. Sometimes I couldn't help but express some kind of annoyance and I felt so horrible about it because I could tell she would notice. She never said anything about it. My mom passed away a month ago so I figure now she knows why and I've said sorry to her during my prayers for her soul on a few occasions. It is a horrible thing to have. Sometimes I wish she was still alive, well I wish she was still alive regardless, but I also wish she was still here to say certain words that triggered me so I could offer up the suffering I was feeling for something good. I think I wasted a lot of those opportunities. But I agree annoyance can be a choice, but having misophonia makes it EXTREMELY difficult. But yes, choosing not to be annoyed can be done at the end of the day.

Annoying things are also a signal to be aware of dangerous situations . Annoyance is hard to ignore. But I will try to remember this

Hahahahahaha I have so felt that way about mouth smacking or whispering too!!😂😂😂 Also annoys me when ppl play with their pens clicking them in and out a billion times! This is such a great way to change my perspective!

I'm sorry I often mouth words while praying but now I feel very self conscious 😂😂 I have some trouble keeping attention and it helps a lot, otherwise my thoughts will just fly and I can't focus. But I'll try to be 100% quiet guys lol

The person or things that annoy us sanctify us. Let me remember this most times✨👍
