How the Devil Uses Your Gifts and Talents Against You

[@jeffreyscottbrock]

Oh I am going to call my Priest and schedule confession. I am guilty, very guilty, of being intolerant of others and not being grateful for the gifts I have received. Thank You Fr.Mark

@@toddthomas3226 thats not what Jesus says.. the catholic church was founded by him he gave us the sacraments he works through the priest..

[@agnieszkalewandowska6026]

@@toddthomas3226 to do that you would have to directly disobey Jesus who instituted the church and said to his apostles that whomever they forgave their sins, they would be forgiven and whomever they retained their sins they would be retained. (I'm Polish so forgive me if I'm not quoting the fragment according to a proper translation). I like to thonk of it in terms of trusting Him: Jesus obviously knew our human nature better than we can ever understand it and if He decided we needed to hear His message of forgiveness spoken through the mouth of his apostles (and their successors) then shouldn't we trust Him on that? What do you think?

Sacramentals, (scapular, medals, etc) if worn in humility and faith , leading us to a more devout prayer life while carrying our cross and walking with Jesus daily, are very powerful!!!

Wow, I ran across this video quite by accident, though I've been subscribed to this channel for awhile. The title of the talk caught my eye and intrigued as to how this subject was going to be addressed, and although my adult coming-to-faith occurred for me about 37 years ago, this one hit me between the eyes. Thank you, Father, for addressing this. If it was for no one else, it was for me.

[@pelawren]

THANK YOU LORD for this great message.

[@franciscogerardohernandezr4788]

I hear God's message through your understanding, and I get comforted and motivated to stand up and keep fighting. As a sinner, I continuously fall from Grace and eventually repent from my selfish actions. This lock-down has made me aware of the spiritual battle within me. Sometimes sin leaves me numb and bitter before all the good life I have been blessed with. I cannot thank you enough for your efforts.

[@gerarddesilva5193]

I so needed to hear this. It just opened my eyes to a sin I was taking for granted. Bless you Fr.

[@rose4490]

I'm excited to see this one, because I started praying for Humility in the beginning of August, after doing a Bible study on Zoom with a dear friend who will be joining a convent, and after the first couple of weeks I've felt like Satan has been attacking me. I'm 50 years old, and although I have been a Catholic all my life, and this is the first time I've ever specifically prayed for Humility

[@stevie1166]

Thank you, Father. This was a message I needed to hear. I’m a recent convert and was baptised at the Easter Vigil. I have fallen foul of that accusatory nature a few times throughout my conversion. Fortunately it’s been spotted before it’s been able to take strong root within me. You make an excellent point about the church seeming unattractive as a result of the negative qualities someone like myself displays. Very helpful insight, thanks again

[@jellybelly7629]

How awesome this is something I’ve been praying abt for the gifts He found me worthy to bestow upon me. I do let people know I’m a sinner and I’m not proud of that by any means. But when I try to share my gift with others it sometimes comes across as bragging. Which is something I don’t like. I let them know that this gift is not from me but from God. Also each of us have gifts given to us mine just happens to be different than theirs. I thank God 24/7. I’m in constant prayer which I love Him for conversing with me. I ask on a regular basis for Him to keep my sins before me as to not fall into pride. Which I hate to admit I do sometimes. The grace of humility is very precious. And the devil will and does work that much harder to trip you. Someone said The closer you get to God the devil works harder to pull you back down the mountain. So thank you for always having great insights. God Bless

[@lgb5661]

Wow so good! I have a relative who got bitten by the nasties as faith grew within. Ugh! Horrible to be around that person and made the faith sooo unattractive!

Now I am vigilant and pray often for help in staying humble, gracious and sensitive to others.

Thank you for this video, Fr. Mark Mary. Your message really spoke to me and helped me to be conscious of how guilty I am of falling into this very temptation (from the devil) to turn God's gifts into a tool for condemning those without those gifts. I am actively trying to catch and stop myself from doing this to others around me. Please pray for us (myself included) who are struggling with this issue. God bless you, Father!

[@tradcatpat2385]

Thank you, Fr. Mark-Mary. Some enormously timely guidance, both for myself personally as I heard much of myself in what you were saying, and for Holy Mother Church on the larger scale. So much mud being slung back and forth, and it robs us of focus on the Lord and serving Him. Also, thank you for talking about the devil in our lives. We are pummeled by the world into forgetting, no, ignoring, that the devil is real and ever active in the lives of each of us. I find I blame myself for my actual sins when perhaps I should be blaming myself for not seeking strength from our Lord and protection from the Blessed Virgin when the devil attacks. Anyway, such a vital message and very well delivered. God bless you, all the faithful, and Holy Mother Church.

[@carevv]

Beautifull explaining Father, that is what I've realized since I started to pray the Rosary at the Perpetual Adoration.

[@LeGrandeCappucinna]

Fr Mark-Mary, thank you for your teaching. I truly believe that I was meant to find this particular sermon of yours and thoroughly comprehend it. I felt God’s calling after almost 20 years of not having been to church or confession. I was even altar serving during primary and some of high school. I was raised Catholic, and turned my back on God, and true to his love and mercy for his children, he called me back, and I responded. After this epiphany of realising God’s calling, I have already, literally within a few days of re-finding my faith, experienced the Devil in my thoughts. I now understand the true meaning, that I have to let go of the hurt caused by others unto me (as per the Our Father). Fr I now understand how cunning the enemy can be, he slips in through an emotion, or thought, then buries himself, and it turns into a full blown conscious decision to think bad thoughts against others. The most dangerous part of the enemy’s strategy, is that you don’t even realise he’s done it, as it seems just like a normal emotion or thought. I recently had a severe anxiety attack, caused by a lie a colleague told me, and speaking to my manager, it seems the enemy caused her to lie! My manager confirmed it wasn’t true. This caused me to think and say things I shouldn’t have. It was in my depression and anxiety that God came to me, offering me his mercy and relief from my despair. As soon as I accepted, the majority of my anxiety emotion was lifted, and I was reprieved. I still suffer with it, but it’s not as bad as it was a few weeks ago. My experience at work I think was a way of God allowing me to hurt, so that I would run back to him, and it worked, I did! God really does work in mysterious ways! He knew exactly how to get the better of me😅 LOL! I was sitting outside work one day, wallowing on my self-anguish, smoking a cigarette while focusing on the mysteries of life/God, as I knew that I had felt God calling me back. I said to him in my mind, ‘Ok God, you win, I’ll do whatever you want… fine, we’ll do it your way, I give up, I’m done fighting, you win’. I must admit, I had an idea that he was calling me back for a few months before, but the pull wasn’t so strong, that I felt I had to respond. I think this saga with my anxiety was his ‘tough love’ strategy for me to come back. I am pretty stubborn😅. I now pray the Holy Rosary every night, which is something I’ve literally almost never done, prayed every night, and I continue to ask God’s guidance in all things. May Our Father and all the Saints Bless you, and our Brothers and Sisters in their faith, and to re-connect to it, if they have lost it.

I’m not catholic and have not gone to a physical church in a long while. I was raised SDA. From age 5 to 14 I would fall asleep to the Bible on audio tape. At about age 10 is when I saw discrepancies in teachings while in church. So naturally I would ask those questions and it was either gaslighting or redirecting. So went to church more to conform to what my parents wanted. As an adult that lasted about a year. I have tried several churches never felt comfortable and had a pit in my stomach while sitting in the pews. so on days of worship now I do on my own. I listen to a service from one of my favorite pastors. And I do the studying on my own. And spend the day in prayer.

I think sometimes the biggest problem is worrying about other people and where they are at, and it comes off as being "judgmental." You want so badly for others to see the light but they prefer the darkness and it's painful to watch. "Pray, hope and don't worry" is easier said than done.
