Pray Like Jesus Prayed This Holy Week

- Опубликовано: 30 мар 2021
- During Holy Week, as we contemplate the last hours of Jesus’ life, we get an intimate look at how Jesus prays to his Father.
Starting with our Lord’s prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane, we hear Jesus talking to God the Father about the upcoming moments of his life. He continues to pray through his Passion all the way until his last breath-a model that we as sons and daughters of God can follow as well. But what does Jesus show us about what it means to truly pray “Abba, Father”?

This Gloria Saturday, I make first communion, so thrilled!🥳
Congrats! God Bless
Congratulations
I’m so happy for you
You’ll receive Jesus in your heart ♥️
God bless you ☺️
Congrats! Im getting confirmed
What a blessing!! 😃
@@zacharyp10 wow what a blessing
God bless you
Please pray for my son Steven who has cancer. He does not want to get treatment. I pray God will change his heart.
Thank you Fr Mike..
Thank you all who prayed for him. God answers pray🙏 His cancer is so minimal they will be monitoring it but no treatment as of now. God bless you all❤️
Praying for you
Prayed and sorry to hear that. God Willing your son gets healed ☝️🙏✝️
I am praying for both of you, sending healing, peace, and strength to you.
Smart kid. Cancer treatment is a scam, no treatment 24% survival, with treatment 4% survival rate. Drink lots of extra filtered high quality water and lots of vitamin C.
There is also a plant, u can literally just search cancer healing plant and it comes up, I cant remember the name but it grows locally in US, find ways to cook it.
Summary:
1) Relationship with God (like a father and child)
2) Honesty
3) Trust in God (God’s will be done)
Please pray for me as I discern my vocation
Read the ignatian rules for discernment, might help you. God bless
That's wonderful...I most certainly will pray for you!🙏🌹
Being a child , honesty and trust are such powerful terms in praying to our FATHER. Thank you Fr. Mike👍. God bless.
I absolutely love Father Mike Schmitz, and how he has helped me, I wish he knew how much he has helped people
He knows;) 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
+2 I know he helps me everytime I click on his smiling funny face! 😊 ❤ and there is no such thing is "truly provable" coincidence is there?!?! 🧐🤔
This is beautiful teaching! Thank you so much!
I wish I could have a chat with Him!
@@Martina_E That would be something, man
Lord Jesus, we love You. Have mercy on us and on the whole world.
“Thy will be done..” that is soooo difficult yet i know it is right
@@stingingnettle9726 You know, Ive got this question before and yes there is. God wants to share His creation with us and wants us to rely on Him and take part in it. His Will be done, but we also have free will. What will bring us to Heaven is when our will and His Will are the same.
@@stingingnettle9726 , God's will is what He wants us to do in our life. Each of us have a vocation - a mission to fulfil which is why God has made each and every person. we can chose to do His will, which is what fills the human heart with joy. It can be hard because we are only humans which is why we ask God for His grace to help us.
@@stingingnettle9726 , to know what God asks of you, pray and tell Him you want to do His will. He has a plan for you and me, but also remember that God asks you to do the little things in each moment like help someone with their work, give them your time, talk to people that feel lonely etc. Try to live making these small tasks you spot in everyday life. When you do these things, you say 'yes' to God's will. You see, God talks to us through our conscience and through other people and through the Bible.
I'm sorry that you haven't felt joy in a long time but don't worry, soon things will be different. Remember that Jesus died for you and for all people and He did that because He loves us more than we can imagine. As fr Mike said, he's our Dad that will love us no matter what. Whenever I feel sad I find comfort in telling Him my sorrows because I know He listens. Thinking of how much He loves us and how happy we'll be when we finally see Him in heaven fills my heart with joy. Although many people look for joy in other places, God is the only source of true Joy and it is amazing!
There are videos on vocation and God's will in Ascension Presents that talk about this more btw
I'll pray for you 😉
The absolute JOY of the father pours out of you. Thank you.
Being initiated into the church this weekend, Baptized, Confirmed, First Communion! Praise The Lord!
Welcome home!! I'll be praying for you!🙏🌹
Fr. Mike, I’ve been bedridden the past 2 weeks because of an unexpected surgery...and I’ve got to say, all this time staring at the ceiling and listening more intently to your videos has really enriched my faith. This video immensely blessed me as I always speak the words, “Abba, Abba” after the Fraction rite in the Mass. It has always consoled me to imagine myself again as a little girl with messy ponytails running to the altar, to God the Father - wobble, crawl, or limp if I have to. It is amazing to experience how God can take a surgery to remind me of what it means to be a dependent child of God, and how in the Mass we are called to celebrate with the uttermost joy. Thank you Fr. Mike for blessing me, for your ministry, and for your incredible love for the Lord!
Thankyou dear sister for sharing....at the Our Father, after the Consecration I try to hold the cloak of Our Lady, or her hand, and offer the Our Father with her from the foot of the Cross. Pax Christi.
How can one possibly pray like the Lord Jesus prayed. He was alone, on the cross being made the sacrifice for sin and bearing the wrath for our sins in His body. Though He was God in His person, He was suffering as man for mankind. He was forsaken of God during those hours. He shouted FINISHED. The work of redemption was done. Christ then said 'Father into thy hands I commend my Spirit'. Then He dismissed His Spirit and entered into Death. God was satisfied. He raised Christ from among the dead by His glory and Christ now sits at the right hand of the throne of God, with the expression of that Glory on His face.
What a Man. What a Saviour is Jesus Christ my Lord.
Sometimes it is difficult to imagine what’s a Father’s love when you grew up without a father. 😌

That one verse is the most excruciatingly painful passage to read.
Our saviour expressing a very human response to a terrible event that, in that moment, he dreads to go to. How real, how we understand that distress he feels.
Although the payment by blood was essential for our salvation, it's still a very painful event to meditate on.
We cannot take away his pain - yet he takes away all of our pain, misery & suffering.
Hosanna in the Highest.
Worthy is the Lamb.
Being in the choir since 4th grade makes me think Abba as “Abba, father 🎶 you are the potter, we are the clay”. I really like the way you explain it as dad. After all we have our Mother Mary, now we have Dad our one true God. 💗
We used to watch his videos all the time in high school and I just am starting to watch it independently ever since churches would close cause of corona. I didn't realize how he really makes you think about the faith in a whole different way. I've gone to church all my life with different priests and out of all of them. I think I learn more about the faith through Father Mike. I honestly wish I can see his mass not virtually. Tbh if everyone got the time to know Father Mike, everyone would want to learn more about the Lord
Hope you can go to Duluth, Minessota. I dont live in USA so I have to make videos do for me.
@@grababundoberni I have an aunt and cousins that just moved to Minnesota actually. Idk where but that would be cool!
You watch Father Mike's video at school? :O
You are so right! I feel exactly the same about Fr. Mike. He’s a gift!
@@aireaivy9266 I went to a catholic school a majority of my achedemic career and most of his videos would be in prayer services so..yeah
I am a new Christian, and your videos help whenever I have a question! God bless
Lord Jesus Christ son of the living God have mercy on me a sinner
Awesome. Thank you Father.
I still don’t understand what God is trying to do with my life but I know that all I have to do is to trust in Him
Trust Jesus, not Mary or the saints. Jesus did not say to pray to Mary
Thank u Father Mike 😊
Pray like Jesus to our Abba Father with honesty and completely trust God like Jesus "Abba Father not my will but your will be done"
True the heart of holiness is Father thy will be done.
"Trusting God is Wisdom
Knowing God is Peace
Loving God is Strength
Faith in God is Courage"
I’m going to implement this in my prayer. ‘Dad’ - love it
Amen ! ✝️❤️ ! God Bless Everyone & You ! Fr.Mike
Thank you Father Mike! God bless everyone!
I'm at home with COVID-19 on the Holy Week. Feeling depressed... thank you for this video... I think I might sit and talk to my dad about it 😊🙏🏽🙌
I well pray for you to get better soon, I am A chirstian cathoilc, remember god is with you,
I’m at home with COVID-19 this Holy Week as well... weirdly enough, it brings me so much strength to know I’m not the only Christian/Catholic going through this! Thank you for sharing. Praying for you and your health
Found this video on my screen this morning. Exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you for sending blessed knowledge into the world via internet .
I needed this. I don’t have an earthly father who loves me. Blessings to all this Holy Week ✝️💕🇨🇦
It is the same for me. Once I converted, my family won't acknowledge me. This message brought me to tears. Just what I needed today.
My prayer has changed from detailed to just "Do what you think is best"
Calling God "Father," "Dad" and so on .... is difficult for those of us who could never rely on our earthly father or dad. It wouldn't (and doesn't) move me to call Him Father or dad. It is hard to trust my heavenly Father when I could never trust or rely on my earthy one. I have never had a positive male role model on earth so it's difficult to feel like my Heavenly father cares for me. I keep trying, though. I pray all the time in the hopes He will hear me and provide some emotional healing. I do know that God is love ... I just feels He loves everyone but me. I have yet to have a man truly love me without leaving me, and I'm 47. This is a great, but difficult, topic for me. Thank you for tackling these topics. I hope it helps many. God bless you all
There were good reasons for Christ to go to all the trouble of being Incarnate for 33 years... some people have awesome fathers, many don’t. Holy Mother of God, please lead this woman to the Heart of your Divine Son.
Thank you for this Father! God Bless you and the team! :)
Thanks father Mike
Thank u thank u thank u
God bless you! God bless everyone!
Thank you Fr Mike for this powerful word.
Thank you Father Mike.
I usually pray “Father, help me be a worthy son to you.”
Amen!
JESUS I Trust in You✝️💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝✝️
Thank you, Father Mike! You bring us close to God with this message. God bless you. 🙏🏻
Father is a trusting term to use to God. Thank you Father Mike.
Thank you.

Thank you Fr. God bless
Thank you father mike 🙏🙏
Thank you!
Wonderful!❤
AMEN!! So powerful!
Thank you, Father Mike. 😇🙏
My best friend has always told me to be honest and vulnerable during prayer. I am so afraid because I'm imperfect. I feel so weak.
Keep asking Jesus to "un-stick" your tongue. He will power boost you in prayer and get whatever's embarrassing in your heart out! He already knows what you are going to say. Ask his Mom---Mama Mary to help you. I do and she helps me a lot.
2 Corinthians 12: 10
" . .. For when I am weak, then I am strong... That's why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ.... He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak...."
Don't worry man, we're all imperfect. Acknowledging your imperfection will lead you to humility, but don't stay at the stage of just seeing your weaknesses. When you accept that imperfection is a part of you and you are humble, you can grow closer to God and His perfection. Being vulnerable during prayer is great! God is the one person you can literally share ANYTHING with. I pray for all the best with your spiritual journey :D
@@aidangonsalves9933 Dude, it feels like I'll never overcome my weaknesses. I wish I could see my strengths. I'm feeling very down. Falling into despair.
@@IONov990 Christ is your strength. That is the joy of being weak. You always can and should rely on Jesus. Read about Saint Therese of Lisieux.
Bless you Fr Mike
Thank you Father
Thank You Father Mike. God Bless You!
Tqvm Fr. Mike. Amen. Have a blessed Holy Week and Easter. GBU.
God bless you Father Mike I love this video so much.
Amen.
Great video! Thanks for this video. Switching to calling God the Father, Dad just hit different right now. I felt that shift in the heart.
Metropolitan Anthony Bloom wrote two small volumes on prayer. Splendid.
Thank you for this video ✝️♥️
Thank you Fr. Mike for your encouragement and for the time you spend with us each day opening our eyes to the love of God through your videos, like this one, and through the Bible in a year podcast and yes, I pray for you and all listeners, every day. May God bless you and protect you. Debbie, Ottawa, Ontario. Canada
Great homily, a blessed Easter Father, thank you!
Thank you for this video, Fr Mike.
Thank you for your videos...they are so informative and helpful 😊🕊🌿💟✝️
Amen
What a meaningful synchronicity! I started call Him Dad a few months ago and there was a shift! God bless you. And your podcast has been awesome.
Again excellent spiritual boost to have a deeper loving open trust in God
Happy joyful priesthood
YOU ARE A GIFT TO THIS NEEDY THIRSTY WORLD AND IT IS MAKING A DIFFERENCE
THANK YOU BLESSED HOLY WEEK
.
VIVA CRISTO REY
Sending you hugs galore. Praying for you. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Woow palabras muy profundas
Father Mike, I almost have an issue with you stressing the ADOPTIVE father part. Of course God is my Father, our Father, and I see Jesus like a caring loving older brother, and the Holy Spirit as infinitely pure source of wisdom, love, divinity. God bless you for all your work and these videos, you're one of the major things influencing my road back to Catholicism, which I was born into but separated from. Have a great, blessed Easter.
Thank you for sharing. God bless you.
When I ask God for help, I ask Him for the best possible outcome according to thy will. I will change the last part to thy will be done.
Thank you, i needed this.
Amen 🙏
Yes! Sister Dulce 🙏🏼✝️🛐 hello from Baton Rouge
AMEN..
Reminds me of the mindset of Saint Therese of Lisieux!
Great!
Father Mike, pls continue to pray for me and my family, especially that we may be receptive to the Holy Spirit and be forgiven and made holy, in the footsteps of Jesus.
Also pray for the conversation of my enemies, especially those that messed with my live and made me loose confidence in humanity.
Somebody again messed with my Intagram account. When I saw two app on the display i deleted one and suddenly some page popped up and deleted. Now I font have an account to communicate.
well said
Why if all videos did I get emotional on this one? Great video
This Holy Thursday perhaps consider reading John 17 when John speaks of Jesus praying to the Father for his disciples & the Church. Our Church needs a lot of prayer.
🙏🙏🙏
Father, Jesus is not a fearful double minded son of God! He loved suffering to a folly! He is still suffering at this minute, imprisoned in the eucharist around the world. Those words had nothing to do with trust. The words regarding the chalice was the cry of the whole human family that echoed in Jesus' humanity. He was speaking in the name of all to give us strength. The reason we carry a cross is because our will is not the Father's will (since the fall of Adam). If we allow God's will to be our will, there is no cross. Hence the 'our father' prayer.
Happy Holy Week, #Rockstar 💫💫💫
Love your Videos! Greetings from catholic Croatia
At the hour of his fate of life and the future of the entire mankind, Jesus Christ in the silent garden that night prays to his father asking him for relief from the intolerable injustice to the truth that holds firm in God.
Likewise praying to the father in heaven, shows the way to the truth and light.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Nice
💗💗💗
♥️♥️♥️

#askfatherschmitz please pray for my friend Sante who was homeless and died alone in a park. I am sure the angels and saints were with him at the time so he wasn't so lonely spiritually
Hi! I don’t think you’ll ever see this but I’m a huge fan from Minnetonka, Minnesota and I had a quick question for you that’s been nagging at me lately.... what is the difference between a mistake and a sin? I know it may seem like a silly question but for me sometimes mistakes can seem more sinful than some sins and I can still feel really guilty about them. Just curious! Making a video about it would be great or just a simple answer too :) getting a response from you would make my year! I love your bible in a year podcast and throughout quarantine you’re what truly changed my spiritual life so thank you💕
Can you please make a video on intrusive thoughts please?
Best video you’ve made in my opinion
