Sr. Miriam, I love you! You are the reason for my personal conversion back to the Catholic Church. You speak to my heart and I am so humbly grateful for your ministry. 💖

[@madelinedavis6570]

I love how you laid out the steps building on each other-- daughter (learning how to trust, how to play, how to obey, how to listen) sister, (how to challenge one another, belong, get along) wife, (how to be chaste, love well, rightly-ordered, loving in a receiving, blessing way, ) and mother (refuge, place where people can go and be safely loved). And confidence, trust about receiving--very beautifully put... That Fr. Richar Rohr quote: "Suffering that is not transformed is transmitted." And so much more... gives me such hope.

This sister's heart is beautiful, we can see it as she speaks.

[@paxvobiscum9859]

She is such a joy to listen to. 💙

"What the world needs now more than any other time in history is an encounter with the living God". A -MEN. Put this on a t-shirt because this may become my life motto. Sr Miriam, we thank God for the healing love and light you are allowing Him to pour out into the world through you. God bless the work.

@@epart513 probably from that video of the Christian preacher who said a prayer in a room of U.S. politicians…he made the prayer to a Hindu (?) god and ended with “A-MEN” and “A-WOMAN” to be “inclusive.” It was bizarre…

Never is my soul so at peace as when listening to Sr. Miriam! Thank you, Jesus, for the gift that she is. That by your grace, she has overcome such awful things and is now the most radiant and joyful soul I have ever seen.

[@peace4serenity]

Thank you so much for your message Sr. Miriam. It hurts to let go of the deep sense of unworthiness even when my heart yearns for it. I’ve become increasingly receptive to Christ’s profound love for me, I feel it deeply, especially in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrement. Many things you said reached my soul today.

[@GIVENInstitute]

Beautiful, thank you for sharing!

[@b.felicisimo5937]

I just discovered Sr. Miriam via her keynote at this weekend's Virtual Catholic Conference. What a wonderful speaker.

[@GIVENInstitute]

She is wonderful! Thanks for watching!

[@ritagoes7403]

God bless and protect you sister. Thank you sister saving and healing many souls. 😅I❤

[@JM-xq1vz]

Sister Miriam you are a beautiful soul, and you are a sister to everyone. Christ’s love pours out of you and it shows 💕.

[@lsjt8924]

Wow. I’m not Catholic but that was a beautiful prayer, really moved me to pray and not to take God’s presence and love for granted as I so often do.

[@GIVENInstitute]

Praise God! We are so happy you were inspired.

[@sheilamurry9875]

I went to a spiritual mentor in a devastating part of my life and being opened and aware to get positive input and feedback....and the spiritual mentor sent me on my way after two sessions. The church where he resided was for more prominent people and I knew that and always thought maybe it could overlooked by him for my needs to learn but no he sent me away. So....I am happy for you sister Miriam that you received such great love from your spiritual mentor. I'm going to listen what he told you and hopefully I can apply it to my life

[@markhenryramsey9132]

There are many aspects to faith and the church I appreciate to a deeper degree as I mature. One of them is how catholic’s think of one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. You are all loved as you are.

[@rachelapodaca9063]

Sister I love you! I’m so blessed to listen to you, you’ve helped me heal and get closer to God 🙏 God Bless You💗

I didn't know the structure of the laying our hearts in accordance to the foundation of the rosary. I just gave my heart and thoughts at the time/s during masses as the priest lift up the body and blood of Christ in consecration

You are an inspiration ❤️💐🙏

[@Ochepeochpe085-gu4hm]

Amen Thank you God bless ✝️❤️

[@margokupelian344]

Sister Miriam, you are an inspiration to me and I’m sure to a LOT of people. You have a unique way of touching people’s hearts and filling them with God’s love. You have a genuine love and devotion to Jesus as His bride. And I would think that a lot of people would say what you said to the Indian priest before your conversion: “I want to have that...” referring to the peace and the serenity that you saw on his face. God bless you, you’re in my prayers. P.S. Like your mother I also pray for my daughter’s conversion and even for her to be a nun... If you happen to read my comment please pray for her.

Sr Miriam, you are amazing! What an awesome insite into femininity. I am happy to be a woman and to have given birth to three wonderful children who are amazing adults and have families of there own and have gifted us a total of 8 gorgeous grandchildren. I pray for you Sr Miriam you are a true role model for women and our faith. Watching you it is obvious that the Holy Spirit is working within you as you share your heart and soul, God Bless much love.

[@sonianorbert7582]

Thanking God for the gift of Sr. Miriam James. Thank you Jesus for speaking to me today through Sr.Miriam. Sister thank you so much for wonderful message. Love you so much. Thank you for touching many by your words and life witness in Christ.

[@danielhoven570]

That was beautiful. I have been studying the psychodrama of “the death of Mary” in the Protestant world, analogous to the death of God in the secular world.

Sister Miriam can you please recommend podcasts for young men? My son is single and 29. He could use some spiritual encouragement.

[@epbook610]

I am not St. Miriam but being a 29 year old male figured I was fairly qualified :). The Catholic Talk Show, Pints with Aquinas, and any video from ascension presents (specifically with Father Mike Schmitz). God Bless

[@epbook610]

[@lupsy54]

@@epbook610 great recommendations, I agree! 🙏🏼I also recommend the KZbin channel “called to be more” by a Franciscan Friar, Fr. Mary. Also for younger guys, I recommend “breaking the habit” by a very young priest Fr. Casey. 👍🏼

Is your son a thinking man? Check out Bishop Barron on You Tube. Even non Catholics get excited with his words.

[@sylviarodrigues1588]

Sr. your teaching/preaching is very good but one has to strain the ears to listen and how long can a human being do that. So my humble request to you is to increase the volume of your mike.

[@AngelBien]

She sounded alright to me, maybe turn up your volume?

[@lenorecatalogna9752]

Oh Excuse me world. I lied. St. Agustine is not 40 years younger. He is 20 years younger.

[@karenertl5065]

When you need to earn whatever you get, how do you develop "receptivity"? BTW, I'm working class, working poor, whatever you want to call the people who are not middle class.

[@GIVENInstitute]

It's tough and definitely something to bring to prayer! Something to pray about is how everything, especially your life and ability to love, is a gift from God out of his love for you. Take comfort in the fact that Jesus has special care for the poor, and you have a unique gift that only you can give. We thank you for being here and watching this video and wish you well!

[@philalcoceli6328]

Sister Miriam Heidland, what an example of holy femininity, the only REAL one and not limited to women Religious and such an example to us men so we strive relentlessly to be REAL men, both women and men submitted to Christ!! Sister Miriam worships the True Holy Trinity and not the unholy trinity of the extreme feminists: Arrogant Pride, Lust For Control and Worship Of Feelings, which has brough such enormous darkness and evil to the world and to the Church. It's the REAL women that the world and the Church need so badly!!

[@EmilyEsserman]

Venerable Dr. Phil 😂

[@katelijnevanmegen6559]

Isn't the gift of femininity the possibility of becoming a mother? And do as our Creator has done?

[@GIVENInstitute]

Motherhood (physical and/or spiritual) is certainly a beautiful outpouring of the fullness of feminine identity. And we can see that the journey "to" motherhood and "of" motherhood is not always a smooth one - it's not always complete. We need a constant receiving of God's love as His daughters, and a relationship to allow him to speak into and heal our identities of sister, bride and mother as well. Thank you for being here! We hope you enjoyed Sister Miriam's talk.
