i guess Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
I just found father Mike tonight I am not Catholic but God led me to this I have no doubt father Mike i thank you and may God bless you, you don't know me but you just saved my life I can not thank you enough
I wasn't Catholic either, but studied Scott Hahn's works and was so informed that I made the switch. I used to be a Protestant, and I respect them, but I believe Catholics are closer to the truth. God bless you!
Prayer: Help me in my hour of helplessness Dear Jesus, help me in my hour of helplessness. Free me from sin and open my eyes, my heart and my soul to the deceit of the devil and his wicked ways. Fill me with Your Love when I feel hatred in my heart. Fill me with Your Peace when I feel grief. Fill me with Your Strength when I am weak. Save me from the prison within which I find myself, so that I can be free and be held safely in Your Sacred Arms. Amen.
He saved my life recently, as well. Same thing. Out of the blue one of his videos appeared on my RUclips I watched it. Then all the rest. Ended up going to confession for the first time in 30 years. Made peace with my God. Went back to church and received communion. Haven’t looked back since. I watch father Mike everyday. In addition to others on Ascension Presents.
Father, I know you can't read the comments ,especially of much older videos. I still wanna let you know you gave me an extra reason to exhale and smile. It's like not even knowing me, you're in my head and know exactly what I'm going through. Many, many, many times, you have been the spiritual director I've so separately sought and not found. God truly is Great and Awsome that really does AND makes Wonders. God bless you. I will be praying 3 Hail Marys for you today.
I was scrolling through your channel, my phone fell on my face and this video played. Took it as a message from God cause this is what I'm going through.
I needed this. I've never entirely accepted being a widow. I have felt helpless and that's partly fueled by self-pity. Thanks for this. It was a wake up call that I needed. Yes, I can do better and ... will!!
Father Mike, I was literally sitting here at my computer feeling completely helpless about a situation that I need to remove myself from. I've been planning to do this for a long time but each time I try to follow through I feel so stuck and helpless to actually execute the things that need to happen. I feel immense overwhelm. I was browsing through RUclips and I wasn't searching for any topic in particular but somehow I just felt worse with everything I saw. Finally, I closed my eyes and prayed an Our Father and asked to see something that would soothe me. I refreshed (again with no search) and the FIRST video was this one. This video addressed exactly what I'm going through! At this point in time, this video is 5 years old but it came up first on my feed! Make what you will of it but I do believe this was God's answer to that particular prayer. Thank you, Father Mike. Now I'll listen again. God bless you.
Thank you God, for sending us wonderful priests like Fr. Mike who have the courage to speak the truth and bear witness to the message of Jesus Christ. May God bless you for the work you are doing for his Church.
The baby elephant growing up with the rope attached to a peg is my favorite analogy in clinics. Patients' eyes open wide when the imagery hits them... especially when they are told that an adult elephant with the same thickness of rope on a puny stake keeps them from moving. Really powerful. And then I work with them from there. :-) I will now add the other things you outlined here, Father. Thank you!
That's wonderful, Father. Mike, Like St. Therese, The Little Way! That really applies to me because I have no talents and I can't do much but I've started to do all that I can I do with love❤
I am. During a pandemic I am sending out applications for employment. I am volunteering at church. I am preparing to go back to school again too. 18 months after being in a roll over car accident as a passenger during which a tail pipe poked through the seat which I was sitting on and in which gasoline started then spewing out all over the inside of the car. I had to find my glasses and convince my daughter who was driving that we both had to exit the vehicle instead of waiting for help. We both managed to pull ourselves out of that wreck despite the fact there is 39 years age difference between myself and her. While continuing to save myself from helplessness I am being told to stay home, not apply for work, and that there is no use me going back to school because according to my post secondary school records I am not a good enough student to succeed in post secondary education anyway. There is one thing I cannot do. I cannot change the world on how it perceives us female human beings.
You're never helpless. Even when you're condemned and in a scenario where you're stripped of all your strength, you are always 100% guaranteed to have the strength to endure!
Realism as the helpful view cutting between the 2 extremes: (unrealistic) optimism and (over) pessimism. Hope is the way out of depression counting on God's assurance of comfort along the way, through the arduous struggle. 'Not easy, but it's the right track (there's strength, there's growth). I'm just keeping at it, always on the lookout for little things to be grateful for everyday and telling Jesus about it. ❤
I feel like I am in a place in my life where I want to give up. I am only 18 years old, and I know this is a big problem. I struggle with ADD, and I have gotten really lazy lately, not doing anything but watching RUclips videos and going on Facebook and the Internet. My prayer life is nonexistent, and I just have no motivation to actually do anything in my spiritual life. I go to Mass every Sunday with my family, and I really do love it. I have been a Catholic all my life, and I love the religious traditions and everything about it. I also believe that everything the Church teaches is true; however, I don't seem to have the desire to translate that into changing my life. I think I just don't want to put forth the effort to make the changes that I want to happen. I am just struggling, and I hate it, but I don't know what to do about it. I think I have just come to a place where I think that it is easier to just sink deeper into my sin than make the effort to change and grow in holiness. I know that I can't do it all by myself and that I need God to help me, but I can't just let him do all the work. I have to make some sort of effort. I just feel like I don't really have a relationship with God right now, and I want it to change. Please pray for me, and any advice you have would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Elizabeth. I read your comment and I felt your pain because I too struggled with ADHD. It's absolutely, 100% by no fault of your own that you feel this way. I don't think you should feel guilty for "sinking deeper into sin". Perhaps there's a reason for your current state, perhaps your mind wants better answers, ones which Christianity/Catholicism isn't able to answer well. My advice to you would be to see a psychiatrist who can help assess your problems and give you the appropriate treatments or therapy. I know these may not seem like great options now, but I assure you - your life will change. I know this because mine did. Please consider giving medicine and science a chance. Question everything! Prayer can only help you so much, but medication and treatment from people who study and know how the brain works may be just what you're looking for. Message me if you need any further advice or help, or have any questions :) I'm always open. Love and light.
Elizabeth, you do not believe. It's simply like that. you're just saying, maybe you want to believe, but you don't. If you would.. then that question wouldn't be there. pray, Elizabeth, pray, through Prayer, Struggle, Suffering and Cross we are finding Jesus, God. Also 'REPENT AND BELIEVE IN A GOSPEL', also excercise charity, love, mercy. Do not skip any of these words written here to you in this particular answer. i prayed for you and that answer came to me. Àt first I thought about sufferings. FINDING CHRIST - IS THROUGH SUFFERNIGS. BUT DO NOT FORGET CHRIST, THERE IS NO CROSS WITHOUT CHRIST, AND THERE IS NO CHRIST WITHOUT CROSS. But then I p came to understand that in order for you to understand it, you must believe. Just excercise all Lord's Teachings, and you'll come to Faith through God's Grace. And those a pre not just words. SUCH THING AS GOD'S GRACE REALLY EXISTS. Now why do i give an advice to you? - it's simple. The answer: hello, i'm Ana, and i was just like you. And nothing turned me away from the evil ways i went. But then ... was a lot. ... And now, ican give you an advice. Please, go away from the internet and RUclips and other such things. There are violence, immorality, impurity and sins in this world. we are in the days of the flood. Instead of drops of water - the Wrath of God. Our Ark of the Covenant is The Immaculate Heart of Mary. check this site please holylove.org
Elizabeth Buerke I’m going to pray for you. I also will tell you what I wish I’d known a few years ago: when you are feeling like this, find someone to help. Volunteer. Give a friendly smile and have a simple conversation with the people in the street who carry worries in their eyes, and see what you can do just by being yourself. I have ADD and I really related to everything you wrote. Just remember that it’s as much a blessing as it is a disorder. We have an easier time with some aspects of life which are undervalued in our culture, but which are vital to being good people. We live in the moment too much, which is a thing many people can’t do at all. The hazard is that we are so absorbed in silly things we miss important ones. Use your ADD superpowers wisely. There’s a channel called how to adhd ; if you haven’t watched it give it a look because it really gives a lot of practical life skills advice to help apply your faith and get things done in general. I hope this helps (and I hope you are better now since it was a year ago)
I just said a prayer for you, friend. I can relate. What you’ve got to do is start small. Don’t expect to become a saint overnight. Start with an our father or a Hail Mary. And then ask God to help you grow your prayer life. Eventually you’ll find yourself praying small prayers throughout your day & have a relationship with God. Don’t be afraid to tell God how you feel in prayer and to ask for His help. Also, remember to thank Him for your blessings & you will grow your relationship with Him and find joy & peace. God bless, I’m praying for you. 🙂
Wow... This has really hit home for me. This was incredibly helpful Fr. Mike. Thank you thank you so much! May the Lord always and continue to bless you and your ministry abundantly!
"So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light. Let us walk properly as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in quarreling and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires." (Romans 13:12-14)
Love this. Still: rely on God for everything, remember he can do supernatural things, he can do what our minds believe it’s impossible, he healed blind people, paralyzed people... he’s the all mighty God. He defies realism. Ask ask ask. And IF IT IS HIS WILL, it will be done.
I’m going through a hard time and watching as many of these videos as I can. Thank you for this Father Mike, these videos are life changing and life saving.
Dear Fr Mike, thank you with all my heart. Your words in this video have brought me to tears but I pray I'll receive the same hope that St Augustine had with this reading from Romans. God bless you so very much, Fr Mike 🙏🙏🙏🕊
Thank-You, God. Thank you for this particular topic because I was once the elephant but now through Jesus Christ I walk among the living sharing his word.
Fr mike thank you so much ive been so darn depressed , i moved from san diego to midwest and all alone , been here for 2 years and i feel so alone , and its very hard , thank you !
One of the best perk of being subscribed to this channel is how that one video I need in just the right time and place would be the first to be suggested to me as soon as I open this app. I love Jesus.
Thank you Father Mike. For 33 years I've just been that elephant tied to the stick.. I never stopped struggling but the stick remained in place.. Lately, due to external circumstances, I was ready to give up already.. Or give in.. Thanks to your video I've regained my famous, stubbornness and fighting spirit!!!
Great message, i feel hopeless and helpless most of the time, when i see that i fail doing something that i want to do, to see things i was counting suddenly collapse, maybe this is the way God teach me to count only on His Love and Mercy?
Thanks Father Mike! What great examples of helplessness followed by perseverance and strength. You are an inspired and thoughtful teacher. Please keep doing what you do. God bless you!
I'm dyslexic....ive been helpless for 35 years... Failed at everything in my life, even lost the woman I loved....and am battling lupus, heart failure, tinnitus and weaker vision......
My son died suddenly 4 wks ago I miss him Fight for the life God has allowed you to have! So you have things that are tough But UR looking down instead off out! That person wasnt for you But your down not out! Keep going! God Bless U!
You're awsome father mike!!! You have become one of my role models and I just ran in to your videos a couple months ago, I wasn't a believer much like I was and wasn't. I was more of a fool walking around this beautiful earth with my eyes closed but reading a little of the bible and and watching your videos and just taking in the word of Jesus christ has slapped some sense and knowledge in to my mind and heart. I'm truly grateful for your service to the world and I know Jesus is very proud of your awsome work, God bless. And keep it going if im having a bad day I come and watch some of your videos and its such a positive impact in my day that its like medicine that cures everything. Thank you much.
Even though I don't have everything I've hoped for I do have much to be thankful for. Thank you Fr. Mike for today's reflection and all of the other videos. I wait each week for the next one with great anticipation. Your words of wisdom touch my heart and inspire me to be a better person. God Bless you.
I've felt very helpless for a long time. I'm in my twenties. I lost my childhood and my loved ones to addiction. I was neglected and abused. I've been disinherited. All of the consequential "adults" throughout my life have let me down. I've often blamed myself for it, and I have always put others before myself to my detriment. I'm struggling in my relationship with God because I don't understand why I would be put in this situation. I was raised without religion. I aspire to spirituality if only to help me grapple with my struggles. I am feeling so lost and defeated. All I want is to be happy, satisfied, taken care of, in control, and loved.
Father Mike , I so needed to hear this message today! I need this message everyday. I live in chronic pain and sometimes just feel useless. I can do things, just not what I used to do. Thank you Father I pray for you please pray for me.
oh! When is it going to happen? I beg thee, O Lord, to release me from this helplessness...... I'd live in the present than dwell in the past and learn from it. Remember that big faith by Job.
Thank you for your quality content in this channel. This content help to have an understanding: "I might not be able to do everything, but is doesn't mean I can't do anything." Yes, I believe, many good things must be done as long as we live on the world.
I am spiritually struggling right now. But because of the videos and learnings you're patiently uploading here on u tube ut helps me a lot and God bless u Fr

@@dianebalch5369 Welcome home. We are church military, now we pray for the suffering church so that we can gain access to the glorious church. Amen.
Prayers for you
@@dianebalch5369 Scott Hahn only cares about a male dominated view and women don't count unless their husband believes like him
Another good one is father Mark-Mary. He wears a light robe I think, and he has a mountain man beard.
Prayer: Help me in my hour of helplessness
Dear Jesus, help me in my hour of helplessness.
Free me from sin and open my eyes, my heart and my soul to the deceit of the devil and his wicked ways.
Fill me with Your Love when I feel hatred in my heart.
Fill me with Your Peace when I feel grief.
Fill me with Your Strength when I am weak.
Save me from the prison within which I find myself, so that I can be free and be held safely in Your Sacred Arms. Amen.
That is beautiful

God is great. He works through Father Mike. God knows of your comment.
I was scrolling through your channel, my phone fell on my face and this video played. Took it as a message from God cause this is what I'm going through.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
I needed this. I've never entirely accepted being a widow. I have felt helpless and that's partly fueled by self-pity. Thanks for this. It was a wake up call that I needed. Yes, I can do better and ... will!!
Yet another timely message. Father Mike is an instrument of the Lord🙏🏻
Father Mike, I was literally sitting here at my computer feeling completely helpless about a situation that I need to remove myself from.

Key phrase, "with God's grace"
Thank you God, for sending us wonderful priests like Fr. Mike who have the courage to speak the truth and bear witness to the message of Jesus Christ. May God bless you for the work you are doing for his Church.
This is a message for addicts everywhere. And anyone else who is feeling a lack of hope. Thanks Father Mike.
God bless you, Fr. Mike!
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ 🙏 Mother Mary Pray For Us 🙏Abba Father Bless us and we Adore You 🙏
The baby elephant growing up with the rope attached to a peg is my favorite analogy in clinics. Patients' eyes open wide when the imagery hits them... especially when they are told that an adult elephant with the same thickness of rope on a puny stake keeps them from moving. Really powerful. And then I work with them from there. :-) I will now add the other things you outlined here, Father. Thank you!
That's wonderful, Father. Mike, Like St. Therese, The Little Way!
That really applies to me because I have no talents and I can't do much but I've started to do all that I can I do with love❤
Everyone always says I'm negative and I say I'm not I'm realistic. I've said that for years before I saw this video. Thanks so much
God is better than a therapist. Father Mike delivers a message for God. Thanks, I agree! AMEN
I am. During a pandemic I am sending out applications for employment. I am volunteering at church. I am preparing to go back to school again too. 18 months after being in a roll over car accident as a passenger during which a tail pipe poked through the seat which I was sitting on and in which gasoline started then spewing out all over the inside of the car. I had to find my glasses and convince my daughter who was driving that we both had to exit the vehicle instead of waiting for help.

I found my self in a state of helplessness years ago and in that desolation I found God who is always there for us we just need to ask x
You have no idea how grateful I am to listening to your words....thank you!
Just because i can't do everything, doesn't mean i can't do something~Fr.Mike
I certainly should listen and tune into life more.
You're never helpless. Even when you're condemned and in a scenario where you're stripped of all your strength, you are always 100% guaranteed to have the strength to endure!
God sent this video t ome and answered my prayers. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Father Mike.
Oh, my goodness. This video is good for adults suffering with ADHD, who experience chronic failure.

Man oh Man, that Dr. must be a Saint!
Thank you father for giving us hope.
Thanks Fr Mike from a brazilian young catholic. You're a wise man. God bless you.
Wow... This has really hit home for me. This was incredibly helpful Fr. Mike. Thank you thank you so much! May the Lord always and continue to bless you and your ministry abundantly!
I agree with the father especially on this one.
Thank you, needed a good honest talk! The Lord is my salvation!
This is how it is right now, but it can change, it doesn't have to stay this year - Yes Lord, I believe 🙏

Thank you Father Mike. For 33 years I've just been that elephant tied to the stick.. I never stopped struggling but the stick remained in place.. Lately, due to external circumstances, I was ready to give up already.. Or give in.. Thanks to your video I've regained my famous, stubbornness and fighting spirit!!!
Be careful they don’t like that.
Great message, i feel hopeless and helpless most of the time, when i see that i fail doing something that i want to do, to see things i was counting suddenly collapse, maybe this is the way God teach me to count only on His Love and Mercy?
Fr.Mike i just wanna say THANK YOU. God bless you
I'm grateful for the way God uses you, Father Mike. God bless you. I'll pray for you. Please, pray for me too🙏🏼.
Thanks Father Mike! What great examples of helplessness followed by perseverance and strength. You are an inspired and thoughtful teacher. Please keep doing what you do. God bless you!

Thank you, Father Mike! I really needed to hear this!
You're awsome father mike!!!
You have become one of my role models and I just ran in to your videos a couple months ago, I wasn't a believer much like I was and wasn't. I was more of a fool walking around this beautiful earth with my eyes closed but reading a little of the bible and and watching your videos and just taking in the word of Jesus christ has slapped some sense and knowledge in to my mind and heart. I'm truly grateful for your service to the world and I know Jesus is very proud of your awsome work, God bless. And keep it going if im having a bad day I come and watch some of your videos and its such a positive impact in my day that its like medicine that cures everything. Thank you much.
Even though I don't have everything I've hoped for I do have much to be thankful for. Thank you Fr. Mike for today's reflection and all of the other videos. I wait each week for the next one with great anticipation. Your words of wisdom touch my heart and inspire me to be a better person. God Bless you.
Never give up hope☺🦋
I've felt very helpless for a long time. I'm in my twenties. I lost my childhood and my loved ones to addiction. I was neglected and abused. I've been disinherited. All of the consequential "adults" throughout my life have let me down. I've often blamed myself for it, and I have always put others before myself to my detriment. I'm struggling in my relationship with God because I don't understand why I would be put in this situation. I was raised without religion. I aspire to spirituality if only to help me grapple with my struggles. I am feeling so lost and defeated. All I want is to be happy, satisfied, taken care of, in control, and loved.
How are you doing now?
Thank you! for explaining things in a way I could not only understand, but also relate.
Father Mike , I so needed to hear this message today! I need this message everyday. I live in chronic pain and sometimes just feel useless. I can do things, just not what I used to do. Thank you Father I pray for you please pray for me.
Thank you Father Mike I really needed this ☺️
I’m SO BLESSED to have heard this message. Thank you for being a vessel of God’s work/word. 🙏🏻
This makes absolutely a whole lot of sense. God bless you Fr. Mike now and always.
This was a very wonderful video thank you dear Fr Mike!
Thank you so much. I needed this. God bless you.
Thank you Father! Indeed our hope is in Christ!
oh! When is it going to happen? I beg thee, O Lord, to release me from this helplessness...... I'd live in the present than dwell in the past and learn from it. Remember that big faith by Job.
What a great lesson from jobe
Thank you Father Mike
This video helped me so much today - and the analogy with the elephant is spot on. God bless you Fr. Mike!
Thank you for your quality content in this channel. This content help to have an understanding: "I might not be able to do everything, but is doesn't mean I can't do anything."
Yes, I believe, many good things must be done as long as we live on the world.
