Why You're Telling Little Lies and How to Stop
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 июл 2023
- You probably don't outright lie on a regular basis. But, do you exaggerate? Do you give half truths sometimes, or leave things unclear on purpose? Do you hide some facts in order to smooth things over?
Today, Fr. Mike shows us the very-human reasons we all struggle with these "white lies", and how to tell the "full" truth more often.
"Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil." -Jesus in Matthew 5:37

Father Mike Schmitz, It must be very hard to openly admit these flaws to preach this video, but I want to let everyone know that this transparency is very brave and should be encouraged for the good things it does and the lessons that you teach be clear to live by. You really know what to say to get us thinking and reflecting, and this is yet another great example!
@Sniper08 Thanks. I hate typos especially from myself, haha
So true!
I think it's very brave
This Also means No Man Puts Any Name Before Jesus Christ No Name This Means Moses, , Paul. , Mary 👍🙏
@@sungcho2217Just read Revelation 11:19.......! The Ark is invisible, significant and Everlasting just like the Son of God stands in Heaven right now. If you don't believe that the invisible Covenant Ark is in the Temple in heaven right now......then you don't believe in Yahushua the Messiah either●(period)
Thanks for this video. I'm trying to be a better Catholic and this sermon has given me tools to work with.
I too am working to bump up my faith and found this and the comments very thoughtful for my growth!
@@Call_Upon_YAH we pray to Jesus through his mother. This is evidenced in how we pray. We ask our Lord for Mercy and ask the Blessed Virgin Mary to pray for us. All our prayers and litanies are written in this way. The commandments tell us to honour our parents. Jesus made Mary our Mother as one of his final acts on the Holy Cross. It is right therefor that we show her respect and honour but Catholics do not worship her. God bless you and thank you for sharing Scripture extracts. I hope my simple explanation above helps you understand the way we Catholics give honour and adore the Lord Our God.
@@katherinehickey6915Amen! You said what & why we Catholics seek the Virgin Mother Mary; to intercede for us. We do not ignore our faith or love for God, we want more of God! ❤

I think sometimes we tell these little lies out of a sense of insecurity. We are not enough as we are so we have to create an alternative sense of ourselves. I think the biggest lie is that we are not deserving of God's love as we are- all lies stem from this.
So well said
It’s usually **easier** to beg forgiveness than to ask permission, but it’s usually not **better**.
There's one situation in which it may not be so culpable to lie, and that is when it's a safety or survival issue. If you're in an abusive situation and the truth could get you injured or worse.....and I can tell you many people are in such situations.
I have a journal where I work out my confession. I started giving a page to each sin I commit and then write what reason I felt I had for committing the sin. Helps me figure out what I seem to think I'm getting out of them.
Good
Thats so good! I should do this!
I love that! Great idea
Please pray for my conversion
That’s so helpful 🤗
Sometimes i lie to not hurt someone.. or to not stress someone 🙏🏼🙏🏼 and i know it’s wrong
Would it be better to hurt or stress them?
@@clairestevens3194changing the subject is the answer. No lies involved.😮
When you are tempted to lie to protect a third party's reputation, you can honestly say that you're trying to gossip less and ask to change the subject. You could alternatively suggest the person you're speaking with get the news directly from the third party in question.
@OfficialProJustice it’s sometimes easier said than done esp dealing with a person who easily offended and you want to protect feelings i just try and say nothing it’s complicated but i keep praying 🙏🏼
@OfficialProJusticeI can tell you’re very young. It is not loving to hurt people by giving a blunt truth, rather than couching it in loving language or avoiding certain topics. In addition, one’s opinion is rarely the truth. Facts are truth.
This was something the Holy Spirit convicted me of recently!
Two Ironman Triathlons - absolutely awesome!!! It IS a really big deal and an accomplishment to be proud of!! You rock, Father Mike!!!
And if I miss one day not listening to one of your messages, I feel a strong sense that something is missing. ❤️🙏✝️
I have never done any because I was never athletic or competitive. People who do those always amaze me.
@@stageluvr91 And he said it was a family thing. They sound like a very athletic and interesting family!
I love you Father Mike simply because. You speak in high volume… it’s so true. All those little white lies nips at our soul in time. I don’t know what hurts more the lies or the truth.. healing hurts, vulnerability hurts but being without God hurts way more .
This is such a timely video for me! I've caught myself telling "white lies" some recently without even thinking until my mouth is opened and speaking and it is so frustrating. Thank you for your honesty. Just so no one feels alone... I lie to my Dad about how many cats I have. I'm embarrassed to admit I have 3 inside and 2 outside. He thinks I can't afford to feed them all (or its a waste of money) but they came as stray kittens and I've gotten 3 of them spayed and it barely costs anything to feed them. But i just dont want to hear about it. They bring me joy. And it feels really good to admit that even if it's in RUclips Comments. 😂 Thank you Father Mike. Your candor helps others. ❤
And I pray to just let my "yes be yes and my no be no".
It is sometimes difficult to be honest with people without being rude. “I gotta go” is kinder than adding “because I don’t want to continue this conversation” or “because you are depressing me” or “because I want to read a book now”. The other person doesn’t necessarily have a right to know the details of your life.
Changing the subject is totally legit, though.
@@granmabern5283 Changing the subject just continues the conversation instead of ending it. I guess you could just say “I have plans”.
Yes, but it is perfectly fine to say something like, “Well, I’m going to take off now. It was great chatting with you.” (Unless, of course you don’t mean it. Lol).
A kinder way too is..."I'm going to let ye go now"...sometimes there are those who just need to talk as they are lonely..so after friendly banter..."ahh..I'm going to let ye go now"...(polite way)
Thank you Fr Michael for clearing up questions I always had but to embarrassed to say out loud...even in the confessional..as I thought..well God knows my mind!! 😳
...or because "I want to be by myself."
Well Fr Mike, youve done 2 more triathlons than me. Always wanted to do a triathlon, but deep, open water scares me.
I can’t tell you how inspirational your message is to me. I feel so happy to hear you share openly about something that we all engage in but don’t want to confront. Just like you, I am working on this one. Thank you so much!

I've reinforced a stack of untruths to my son: Santa Claus, Easter bunny, tooth fairy etc. I had to tell him the truth about Santa when my son was 12. He was so upset.
Luckily he had worked out the Easter bunny and tooth fairy on his own by the age of 8.
I know that my 'little white lies' tend to be: protect someone's feelings - "Do you like my outfit? etc" or to protect myself, in the sense of not wanting to be an 'open book' with people who aren't in my inner circle.
Hi, my name is Robin Lee and this is Your viewer. 😂. God bless you fr mike.
I heard what you said at the end. “Was that a weird video? I think that was a weird video.”
Hahahaha
And I say NO it was not weird. I can’t speak for anyone else but I’ve told many little untruths just to make myself look better when it probably doesn’t matter to the person I’m talking to. As you reminded us, Jesus said, “let your yes be your yes and your no be your no anything other is from the evil one.”
Next time you say how many triathlons you have done, tell them 2 and a 1/3. Anyone would ask about the 1/3. Or simply tell them 2 and trained for 3rd but was injured. You deserve credit for that (almost 3rd).
Thank you Fr. Mike, you have given me a lot to think about. Being as honest as we can possibly be is a freeing feeling.
Besides, it means more that people like me for exactly who I am. I hope this is a feeling for many others as well. Amen.
Awesome video, really helpful! These "white lies" almost always become gateway sins to even bigger sins too. Better to shoot high in telling the whole truth and nothing but truth and end up doing an average job of it, than to be less than clear and factual and fall low into the territory of lies and false witness. Lots of people have this struggle and those that don't are blessed. Also it must be summer in the north at last - you have a tan!
Father Mike that totally make sense Father Mike the Holy Spirit uses you in big loving amazing ways 🙏 you are such a blessing thank you for saying yes to your calling maybe if is God's willing you could teach new young priests. God bless you 😇
One goo thing to remember is that silence can also be a good way to avoid white lies in some situations. Not everything needs to be talked about with everyone. Especially when it's something that could lead to the sin of gossip if it's talked about too much.
Thanks for this, Fr. Mike - I’ve confessed little white lies before - the kind that you are talking about - the ones that slip out without you giving any forethought. it is very embarrassing and humbling to realise how small I am at 63 years old ! Your talk provided clarity though - pointing to the reasons why we might do these things. No wonder a lot of the saints didn’t speak unnecessarily!
My life would be easier if I shut my mouth
There's a time to be truthful and a time out of love to lie. My mom has Alzheimers and her only grandson was shot down by the police. I would never lay the truth on her because the anxiety of her frail mind; because I love her. She may repeat, "How's Eddie?" ten times and I'll answer, "Yes, Mom he's fine," and maybe say, "I haven't heard from him in a while but I'm sure he's fine--no news is good news--they say." I'll bring it up in confession and I think the priest just blows it off like killing mosquitoes, flies and ants.
Elder care worker here. You just don't tell hard truths to someone with dementia, because they do not have the cognitive ability to process it. If you tell them a loved one has died, and they forget what you said, and you tell them again.....they have no way to process grief and its just as terrible and raw and traumatic every single time you tell it. It's cruel to put them through that pain.
@@christinebutler7630Amen. That's exactly right.
Also, if he's in heaven, or even purgatory, he IS alright. Maybe you could tell her, "Yeah, I wish he were here right now, too. Let's say a quick prayer for him together."
Father.. thank you for this video. I loved it. Your honesty and clarity truly helped me a lot. You have such amazing common sense..and humility.
Please never stop making these wonderful videos 🙏🏻✝️🌹

My OCD has now been kicked into overdrive since watching this. I’m constantly on the lookout for being hyperbolic & oversharing details so I’m sure to be transparent.🙄🤦🏼♀️😆
Sunburn, Fr. Mike?
I have some things in my past that I don't want to be open about, but also don't want to lie about. I've reached the conclusion that the only right thing is to avoid any outright lying, while carefully picking my words to convey the truth where it matters, and doing my best to avoid deception while remembering that ambiguity is OK as long as you can honestly justify withholding the bare and total truth.
You could also say it's none of their business, or probably more politely say you don't want to talk about it.
Jesus See's everything so i have no reason to not be honest, The truth will set you free(sometimes or in trouble) God Bless you Fr:Mike🙏
1st. Unfortunately I tell
sometimes lies and it hurts me 💔 but the truth is better. But when it comes to people I really care about and I tell them the truth, why do they say things that hurt. I do care about them 100%! And I have someone in my heart that I can’t unlove. It’s hard for me😔
So they say hurtful things in response to you telling them truthful things? Some truths don’t need to be known by others. Ask yourself this: are the truthful things you tell them **likely** to cause their negative response, and is it necessary to tell them?
@@timopper5488really wise answer, THANKY0U. Silence is golden....😅
@@timopper5488 ITS WORSE WHEN THE TRUTH FINALLY COMES OUT. If you read my post; something in my life expounded; I am always in situations; because you are damned if you do; and damned if you don't.
Thank you for bringing this topic up. I've been "chewing" on this for a while, & you put it into perspective 😊
Totally agree with you have felt the same
Thanks Fr. Mike for this message. I appreciate these little hints as they have hit on some of my own what I call white lies.🙏
That citation about Jesus.. Let your “Yes” be Yes, Your “No” be No… everything else is from the Evil One.. Geez! Brilliance! 🙏🏻
makes all the sense father!! i really have a problem with the little lies, thank you for give us these three questions for ourselves
Thank you Father
Thank you so much! I was just telling my daughter this exact stuff tonight and then your video was miraculously posted at exactly the same time. That was God!
Nice priest 👍
To finish my earlier comment./ Pls also pray gor Chris A. In hospital, also, in so California. Also a challenge of huge proportions.God pls heal these young men and pls fof Your Glory deer Lord that we ask. Let ir be💓🙏Amen
Great message Father, for everyone!
Praise be to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, our Lord our God. Holy is Your Name Lord God
May God bless y’all prayers out for y’all. We humbly pray and wish all of this in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior’s Holy Name, Amen.
Your the best God bless you Father Mike
Especially liked the bit about looking to others for approval.
Hi Padre. This video was not weird at all. It was great and so true. Thank you.
Father Mike, as always, this was an amazing and inspiring video. I always appreciate your honesty and how you just tell it like it is. Its very refreshing, and you're an awesome person and an even more awesome Priest. Thank you for all the videos youre always pumping out. I hope you realize how many people you inspire!

I am a culprit of this unfortunately. I do it when I don’t want to go somewhere and pretend I have other plans not to hurt someone’s feelings! I just don’t feel like going. :(
I would say staying home and doing nothing should count as other plans. As an introvert, I frequently feel misunderstood by extroverts who don't understand my need for time on the calendar that doesn't involve social plans. For me, 2020 was a good year, absolutely amazing. I finally felt like I could keep up with life, but unfortunately it's back to the races.
I think it’s easier to say, “I have to leave,” instead of “I want to leave,” because “have to” allows for a multitude of reasons outside of yourself, and not just your desire to get away from that person. Pretty hard to NOT insult someone by saying “I want to leave,” and giving NO reason why. Always have plenty of legitimate reasons to not be where you currently are.
Or you could just say "I'll go" and leave it open.
Just be honest. You should say I want to get away from you now. It was fun but you are starting to annoy me so I want to leave while we are still friends.
I would also recommend "it's time for me to go."
@@augusto8632
And they will obviously ask you, “Oh, why?”
@@HomesteadRanger
Then you would literally sound like a rather low-functioning Autistic person. I mean, if that’s what you’re going for, by all means, but that would, again, be giving a false impression.
I'm new to the Catholic faith and your channel has been so helpful.
welcome home🙏
Father Mike Schmitz is a really cool person. I love his funny intros from the beginning they are cool. The reason I liked him because my family and I watched his Mass videos on RUclips and is cool as well so that’s how I got into this.
Father Mike. This wasn't a weird video. It was exactly what I needed. I need to be mindful with my words. I tell white lies all the time or I exaggerate a little bit to get my point across x I need to stop this. I also find myself maybe exaggerating a story to comfort people. I'll find another way cos all lies big or small are negative x
I see that ascension has upped their editing game recently and I appreciate it: editors, you are seen :)
God is Truth.
I agree with your assessment on why we lie, even little lies like your example. But one reason I do this is because I have always been a people pleaser, so I put a good "face" on something. Even if it something stupidly simple. I also agree that we lie about small things because we do want to look good/talented/smart etc. to others.
I am working on changing this to BE more authentic.
Having said all of that, I also agree that everyone doesn't need to know everything you think, at the moment when you think it.
Jesus I love you. All I have is yours. Yours I am yours I want to be. Do with me whatever you will.
Honesty is the best policy. Especially being honest with yourself. And honesty with others keeps us accountable for our actions.
Yes, you made a lot of sense Fr Mike!
Thank you for speaking truth to us
God bless you
I am struggling a lot with lying. This video will go a long way in helping me work on my weakness. God bless you!
I always say I weigh 135 lbs. definitely tweaking the truth ever so slightly
Dude! I mean Fr. Mike! I can’t believe you even did “1” off those!!! HUGE Kudos to You!!!! 🤩👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I think the lies that society expects for the sake of politeness don't count, like "I gotta go," or when someone asks, "How are you?" and you say, "Fine," instead of venting all the bad stuff that happened to you that day.
Still, if it bothers you, people might be okay with, "I am going to go now," or even better, "I am going to let you go."
🙏🙏🙏.Thank you
Father Mike, spot on spiritual psychoanalysis. Boy, you nailed it with the internal self-awareness. I think you could give Dr. Phil a run for his money.
Are you ok, Fr? Looks like you're in the struggle, Champion. Bless you, mighty man of God.
I just got my great adventure bible in the mail today and am super excited to get it blessed and start following the Bible in a year ! Thank you Father Mike!

Thank you this was great. Straight from the heart. I would love to see more like this
Absolutely PHENOMENAL video!! Thank you for covering this topic!!!
Thans Fr. Mike!
Isn’t it funny that we accept complete honesty from children, we smile and move on, but as we get older honesty slips to a place behind so the white lie becomes the norm. I really try to be honest in my speech, it’s not easy. Thanks 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Excellent video. It is something I struggle with, even this very day. I pray for and love Father Mike.
Thank you so much for this, Father Mike! I caught myself recently when I was shopping with my mom (she asked) and told her I spend $20, instead of $37. 😕 It's shameful because I struggle with makeup purchases, like a shopaholic. But, I will keep my honesty from now on and do my best to not overspend on stuff I already have.
oh this reminds me of my mum and the truth I covered up, but why was she so nosey anyway lol!
I am the same with overbuying 😭 sometimes it feels like I can’t stop myself. I’ll pray for you!

@@BlessedLifeLoveandFaith no- she was just nosey! I was earning money and free to spend a little on myself! I never ask my daughter how much she spends on clothes.

Thank you so much for this honest video! It came at the right moment for me... I’m more aware now of how the enemy takes advantage of these apparently insignificant evil acts to win his battle... keep up with your incredible work Father!
😂 I heard you, "Was that just a weird video" A little vague, that's all. It's called "I think it's called "stretching the truth". My bigger fault is saying too much on FB and not commenting what, I think the speaker/writer wants to see but heh, I welcome anyone who wants to PERSONALLY call me out on whatever they think of whatever I say or post. We're still loving BIAY Fr. Mike. It's different the second time with my husband than it was the first time myself. Yet, and this is the HONEST TRUTH.🖐 I know now as I never have. God's Word IS Living and along with your summary speaks to each/both of us and to our day, daily. Thank you.
Excellent!
Thank you Father Mike for sharing.
Thank you for this video. Holy Spirit inspired really, needed this
Thank you!
It wasn’t a weird video, itwas honest and I’ll bet hit home for everyone. You are simply the best!
Thank you.
Thank you -
You’re the best, Father Mike ❤
We are all human… so brave of you Father. Learning from this… 👍
Thank you, you are very inspiring. You reflect Jesus.
FYI - I’ve never done a triathlon. 😄 Be humbly proud of your accomplishments.
And, I understand what you are saying, but I think it is so important to put love before the hammer of the truth. The three questions are a great litmus test for self reflection.
Thanks so much Fr. Mike for this video and all you do for us to help lead us on the right path in life towards Heaven. You are truly full of the Holy Spirit. God bless you 🙏 ✝ 🕊 🌹 ❤
It makes sense Fr. Mike! I’ve been doing it for too long. Let my yes be yes and no be no, amen!
