Thank you Father, 🙏🏻 God bless you

[@michelemcdermott75]

Father Michael - I can almost “see” what you’re teaching us. I’ve never seen a place where Day Laborers congregate- but my mind’s eye can envision it….because of your words🙏 it’s always hard to think that God truly loves ‘me’ - that’s my struggle. 🙏

[@HumilityisaVirtue]

"I can do a better job than God." ("What ma'am would you do?") That ranks right up there with, "How could God let that happen?" (How could we let it happen?") or "Why didn't God save them?" (So, who should God save and not save? Everyone or no one?) Asking the right questions makes people realize they have no idea Who God is at all. You always hit the nail on the head Father... thank you.

Doug, Not only did Father Mike hit the nail on the head but you did also with your reply. God bless you Sir. Jezu Ufam Tobie...

From New Mexico: you are a Master Teacher of the word of God. Bless you for sharing.

[@irenedsouza794]

Very bad what that lady said fr Mike may you receive great blessing from above. Amen.

We LIVE in a FALLEN world. People don't need to be blaming God. They need to KNOW Him through accepting what Jesus did for them on the cross and his resurrection.

[@lourdescardoz5055]

" I can do better than God" these sort of blasphemous words are heard from the proud and the successful... who think they are the best and can do anything... they forget there is some one above who has helped them... without His mercy and love... nothing is possible... that our very breath, our existence comes from Him.... I've witnessed these sort of blasphemous words... may their eyes open... to the truth...🙏🙏🙏
