- This is a homily for the 3rd week of Easter, Year A. Jesus appears to the disciples on the way to Emmaus, but it is only in the breaking of the bread that they truly see him. Meals are a means of encountering one another, and so I exhort you this week to see the body of Christ in your midst.

Currently it's 1:19AM , .... Sometimes it just scares me being alone , but just now a thought came into my mind "JESUS IS WITH ME" . and 2 minutes later I found this video , :)
Love from India
Thx for your transparency and humility.
I'm Protestant and am always amazed at how Christ unites all through wisdom and love. There is something truly special about sitting at the table and breaking bread with your loved ones. God Bless you and your ministry
I use to share my sack lunch when I was homeless with others, And we talk about the Sermon we had just heard does that count?
@Ellen C I didn't make that up either . Thats what my life was like 15 years ago. It was over 20 years ago I be came a Christian . But I didn't get rich and famous. I didn't get the good job or the house in right zip code. I didn't get anything from Jesus, He took everything away from me . And praise him for it everyday. All I got was love, redemption , forgiveness and salvation.
How blessed we are💕🔥🔥🥰
if yer a Prot on here, then don't come pandering for catholics to run up to like you ,..they won't even pray for u buddy
@@roboparks oh ,..so i see u live in calif ,..and now there are 8 illegals dwelling in your apartment today paying 2300 $ per month now for it,..
Father Casey had a healthy up bringing . Praise God.
I recently said yes to coming to fellowship with young adults in our diocese. I have never felt so at ease. Christ is truly within us when we spend time in community. We are not meant to journey alone. 💓
I value table time. I'm in household where we are all adults. It's rare we sit n eat with each other. Watch a movie together. Read Bible together. We all have different schedules as adults. I value rare times we Share
Father Casey I am from India. I've learned a lot from you. Thanks.🙏
So wonderful.we did that and it was always a joy beyond words.
Father Cole, you are indeed a gifted and inspired homilist; a Godsend during this uncertain and unsettling time. May Our Lord continue to bless you and your ministry, and that of the brothers of your order.
he's not gifted or anything, he's some young kid born in 1998 , whose 'expert" on all the scriptures ,.
@fender guitars he has not claimed to be an expert..He is being himself , the way he presents it is very interesting but its catholic teachings according to the magisterium. Dont be quick to judge or condemn, just listen,if the message he says is not for you, that's ok.God bless you
Great homily, Fr. Casey! I pray that God will bless you always and keep you in His peace.
Thanks!
I was similarly reminded of what a christian should be, something I should have done to a needy stranger but didn't. Instead it was done by a another. I am ashamed till this day.
Jeremiah, I'm sure God forgives you. Now forgive yourself. And look for opportunities to make amends.
@@LongTimeNoPuck Thanks Gary. Appreciate your comments. It served as a lesson to me that I wont forget and sensitized me to future opportunities that I shouldn't miss again.
@@jeremiahong248 Lesson learned. You are AMAZING!
@@LongTimeNoPuck in my country, Christians (Protestants and Catholics) make up only 20% of the population. This makes my lesson even more stark as the one who did the charitable act has a 80% chance of being a non Christian. Not to say people of other religion dont do charity, but a person of God didn't.
@@jeremiahong248 But you will from now on! Christianity is a lifetime learning process... for all of us! We will only reach perfection in Heaven.
You our so right
Father
I am an atheist, but I enjoy this channel.
Fr you are a perfect AD for the Franciscan Friars .our life too is so similar prayer. Work joyful atmosphere. Community life etc etc try to be Pauline saints
Fr Caseyyou are a breath of fresh air. Thank you
Thank you Father.
Thank you Fr. Casey. You have put a new and essential meaning to the dinner table in my home.
Thank you Father Casey for your beautiful and positive words. You are truly a gift to us right now. Have a beautiful day!🙏🏼❤️🌍💪🏻🕊
A beautiful homily!
Thanks!
Thanks Father.
FEB 09, 2022 - I think God is talking to me thru you, i havent been eating with my Family or anyone every meal. I always eat after them/alone..
Thank you for this! I've always had trouble helping people... For example I see a beggar who is needy. Sometimes I give money, sometimes I don't. But in my heart I want to do more than just that but I'm too scared to try and everyday I pray for courage and motivation to do good. This video helped me a lot. Thank you father!
Dear Akith you might rather than helping individually try volunteering at a centre for the homeless or a shelter. Once you become more familiar with some homeless people you might be more confident if you encounter people on the street.
@@andrewhollingsworth3137 I can do this... Thank you for the advice. I will go for it when I'm able to! But it amazes me that there are ppl out there that have an automatic drive to do that though🤩
Thank you Father Casey. Godbless.
Yours is my favorite christian channel in the whole youtube!!
I love how true you are,and how truly you serve Jesus!!
God bless you🙏
Fellow brazilian? 😄
Your right Father, yes our own dinner table is a sacred place. Its not only a place to eat the food infront of you, but more importantly its a place of fellowship.
I pray that God helps open my eyes and heart and I see.
I don't think I can do it on my own, I've tried out of pure will, I want to make myself believe? But it never feels like it's enough.
Thank You.
HI GOOD MORNING FR CASEY COLE....I NEED THE ASSURANCE THAT JESUS IS WITH US ALL THE TIME
HE IS THERE WITH US TO PROTECT AND RESTORE AND DELIVER US
JESUS PRECIOUS BLOOD IS MOST POWERFUL AND JESUS IS MORE POWERFUL THAN THE DEVIL
JESUS HIS GRACE AND MERCY AND LOVE EVERLASTING HE WONT FAIL US....🙏🏻
*Glory to God 🙏❣️ Shalom from Kerala India 💕🔥🙏*
Thank you so much for the opportunity to listen to your teachings Father Casey. God bless you and keep you safe. 🙏🙏😇👼❤️❤️
God is always with us. We sinners are the ones who walk away from Him. Yeshua/ Jesus. #Yehaweh #Shalom 😇👼
Hey Father Casey love watching your videos keep up the great work!
thank you Father wee need you
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ
Thank you for the inspiring message. Almost makes me wish I was that beggar being invited.
A truly geat message we should all adhere too. It spoke to my heart and reminded how we should treat our family and strangers with love and compassion like Christ does to all.
This is beautiful. Thank you so much, Father.
Thank you, truly! I've been struggling to recongnise Jesus in my life and your words gave me strenght :)
The Church is starting to come alive again more than ever! Praise the Lord!
He is in our homes now , on the streeets and hospitals . God with us
It depends on who you're sitting with. Your friends and family may conduct yourselves this way. But it's very rare. For most it ranges from silence to empty to painful.
I love your programme
I love these videos.
You are one of the dear blessings of my day. Thank you for sharing how you see the world and Gods grace.
I absolutely agree with you. In this period of quarantine I rediscovered the gift of my family. And I did it around the table during lunch and dinner!
Lord Jesus Christ bless us. Amen
Love your honesty, Father - thank you for everything you do
Jesus my Lord my God please visit me at home, but please forgive us because we are sinners
Well done. Interesting that the mass evolved out of the passover seder - when the door is left open to welcome the stranger to the meal.
Michael Kalish - As long as they're Jewish.
I m of from Pakistan and member of a Presbyterian church. I love to watch your videos for the messages of wisdom.
Have you looked into the Catholic faith?
@@210SAi yes, but for the basics. We are all from Catholics. We have received bible from Catholics. We even have learnt the basic of holy communion from Catholics but; it's another topic of transubstantiation. We all belong to church of Antioch where followers of Christ were first time called Christian. Don't forget that literacy and education comes only in these last two centuries otherwise people learnt religion through oral tradition. And in oral tradition, pictures helps alot to keep close to the scenery of days of the Christ.
Doctor Dhakan sure but Presbyterians have only been around a few hundred years so there’s been lots of modifications and reinterpretation of the one true Church founded by Jesus and his apostles. Some of which you clearly brought up.
@@210SAi theological differences always happen. We must respect each other and remain strong in our faith of salvation through Jesus Christ by guidance of holy spirit in our daily life to deal with day to day work of life.
Wonderful words!! Very beautiful! I had tears in my eyes 😢 you are a good priest, really. It’s not the first time I listen to your homilies. Thanks a lot father Casey. God bless you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Amen🙏✝🙏.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you Fr., for sharing your own lesson in humility. You are a beautiful soul and keep up the good work of spreading the Gospel! Pax at bonum
Fr Casey that was beautiful and true God bless you praying that you find where you are going to be happy at🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
I also love spending time with my family around the table but they do not always want to do this.
And first of all, sometimes being with myself and others is really difficult.
thank you Fr. Casey:) God bless you:) thank you for sharing the wisdom:) pls. pray for my siblings;)
Interesting that the very first person you encounter upon becoming a priest was a homeless man. It was a powerful lesson that homeless man. Jesus shows up when we least expect him and the least that we encounter. Open our hearts O Lord, to see you where we least expect you to be.
Thanks Father Casey for the great story/advice it truly touch my heart.🙏🏼
Jesus gave us his flesh and blood now take it
I like. Don't even need 2 or 3 others. Jesus is with me always at my meals. Encourage many more persons. Jehova God is not The "Old God" while referring to Jesus our Redeemer as "The Young God"
Thank you frater.....JESUS n HEAVEN love you 😊🙏
Thank you Father for the daily reminders of God's greatness in our lives.God bless you more.
A beautiful homily!
Thank you very much
Thank God for the technology that allows me to watch videos from around the world here in the Holy Land
תודה רבה
Thank you Fr Casey.You inspire me to be a better Christian. May God bless you.
Learning so much and rediscovering humility and gratitude through your RUclips ministry Fr. Casey. God Bless you my friend.
Such a beautiful story and explanation,this made me emotional!!
Very eye opening! Thnk you Father! 🙏
Can't help but wonder who those that disliked this video are
That’s what I am afraid of or worried of,scared of to sit with him and I didn’t know it was Him.
If you treat everyone as if they are Christ himself, you will never miss the chance - and you will also feel him in your heart like never before.
This made me cry and think about how I messed up and stray away from God.
If you have not yet reconciled, come back home!
Love your humor Fr.
great video , the bishop part made my laugh
Thank You Father Casey !
Its nice to know that even priest get a pop quiz by the boss upstairs
Trust me, being a priest doesn't give you social treatment. We get a lot more "pop quizzes."
When was the first time you were allowed to bless the bread and wine? Also can pastors bless them as well?
Father Cole you could be a future Pope.
I loved this! Can you live stream a mass?
One tip I got a while ago was to get the names of homeless people I give money to on the street. (A number of homeless people near my office now know my name. They are quick to say hello in the morning.)
well i try do do the right things but I usually fail.
Greetings from Germany 💌
Please brother...if possible do us a favour for adding subtitles in ur videos.Especially for us who take English as second lang
Hi Baraka. All of my scripted videos have subtitles. The only ones that don't are the homilies, as they are not written out word-for-word.
@@BreakingInTheHabit I think they're auto captions that aren't correct 100% of the time
Baraka Mhagama - Click on the three dots at the top right of the screen, then click on "Captions", then click on "English (auto-generated)".
@@virvisquevir3320 Thank you!
@@BreakingInTheHabit Thanks Br.Stay Blessed!
In his Easter Homily, our bishop-elect put it as a "mutation" of Christ, from his body of flesh and blood into the bod of the Church...
That's okay. Some of the early Church Fathers used that terminology.
Actually. Sacred Scripture states that the disciples' eyes were prevented from recognizing Jesus. Also, it's not true that they were just being polite to Jesus. They said, were not our hearts burning within us while he spoke? That prompted them to say stay with us, for evening draws near. They didn't want Jesus to leave them.
Jesus, Herr, erbarme dich uns daß wir euch nicht gesehen haben!
of course, Rob vanished after the meal. he didn't have any money and would have felt bad that he couldn't contribute toward the bill.
@Breaking In The Habit I was wondering what you think of the Latin Mass and the orders surrounding them? Maybe you could make a video on it?
So, what happened to Rob, the homeless man? I don't have money yet, but when I do, I'll build little igloo-shaped shelters for homeless men and ask Franciscan orders to help run them, help these men get back on their feet and become proud, productive members of society.
I love the Franciscans! I am a baptised and confirmed Catholic and studied at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem - Hebrew language, Arabic language, World Religions, Philosophy, Psychology, History, etc. - and amid all the turmoil, fear and loathing, paranoia and rounds of terrible vengeance, found peace and solace at the libraries and gardens of the Franciscans. I enjoyed many open and honest, clear and candid dialogues with the Franciscan monks present. Thank you, Franciscans!
Since 9/11 - with dubious providence - the US has spent $8 TRILLION on their so-called "War on Terror" on behalf of Israel - thousands of US troop casualties, millions of innocent civilians dead, 22 US Vet suicides every 24 hours, beautiful ancient cities destroyed, millions left homeless and orphaned - and yet the US cannot conjure the money to help the homeless and the PTSD Vets who fought and suffered for their country. Disgusting. I also studied at Columbia in New York City and Berkeley near San Francisco and both campuses had rows of homeless men just outside the gates begging and basking for loose change. I wasn't rich and couldn't help many. But I couldn't square the great wealth all around with the wretched poverty of the homeless citizens. I pray my international environmental enterprises succeed so that I may be in a better position to help the homeless. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.
John 8: 29 And He who sent Me is with Me; He [a]has not left Me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him.”
John 14: 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.” 22 Judas (not Iscariot) *said to Him, “Lord, what then has happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me.
Romans 6: 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Sola fide, Sola gratia, Sola scriptura.
Jesus himself sanctified the table, maybe because he was a carpenter? He made them, and drew us together around them.
Thank you for the video but what do I do when my family doesn’t want to sit and eat at the table with me :/
not everyone is that lucky like you
You can sit around the table but maintain social distance.
Franciscans are the😊 bomb...just saying
Thanks!
So true.
you get a gentle "gifted' thumbs down
@@fenderguitars6050 bless you
Father, there have been recently appereaning many videos on RUclips were people say that they had a dream from God that Jesus is coming soon and that we should tell about it others. What do you think about that?
Lol it feels weird to hear him say that we've been in quarantine for a month... now it's 7.
Sad to say that some christians are blinded by their own interpretations and beliefs and beliefs and never recognised Jesus like the two folks walking with him in the road of Emmaus not until Jesus broke the bread.
What do you say to those who ordinarily live in isolation?
An outstanding discussion. You should listen to the song Come to the Table by Anthem Lights.
Please father I want to contact you.
I am an aspirant
Have you seen Rob since, Father?
I have not been back to that city since. My ordination was not where I live now.
Hi brother
How do you know these things that you are saying ?
