  • Friends, the readings for today are really magnificent, and they are all about something central to the spiritual life-namely, fear. Years ago, I was on a retreat, and the retreat director said that there are two basic questions always to ask. First; Deep down, what do you want? Second: Ultimately, what are you afraid of? In a way, answering those two questions will tell you everything you need to know about yourself, spiritually speaking.

    Peace, Bishop Barron. Deep down, I am afraid of abandonment. I only wanted to be a wife and a mom when I was young. I went to school and got a master's degree to humor my Dad, so that I wouldn't be left without being able to get a good paying job. Now I'm poor again, a working disabled woman, and I get to go to school again. I still fear abandonment. People will do that-- abandon you, but God will never abandon you. That's what I have learned so far in my life. I hope that I will succeed in school-- getting my paramedic certification and renewed CDL; finding a job while I work on my Doctorate. Then hopefully teaching Psychology and Education in a college. I pray for myself and my family members -- that we all have healthy fear of hurting God. Thank you.

    Beautiful sermon, Bishop Barron. There is much to be fearful of, and for me, the ONE thing I am afraid of is losing my soul. I am endeavoring to strengthen that part of me through prayer, detachment and learning. I know, unfortunately, how easy it is to fall so that your soul is in danger. Thank you for this reflection and for the reminder that there are men and women who have made that courageous choice to not lose contact with the Almighty by disregarding the danger to their flesh and appropriately safeguarding their souls. God bless you, Excellency.

    A lot of my calm temperament comes from being faithful during my hardest times, prayers can go a long way but just knowing he’s there for me brings me peace on the daily. I like the metaphor of the castle of safety and peace. Thanks for the amazing message as always!

Despite not having any support from my family, my loved ones and not yet being part of a close community of believers within the Catholic Church. Also not yet participating in service for those who are in need for our Lord. To overcome the obstacles, the challenges I face within and those outside. To persevere regardless of the thoughts and the senses, that are trying to distance me from my God given Faith, to our Eternal Loving Father God, to our Loving Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, to our Lord the Giver of Life, our Great Advocate, the Holy Spirit, and to the Catholic Church!!! Thank you Bishop Barron for this very important Sermon, and these questions we need to ask ourselves...And to TRUST our Lord Jesus Christ's WORDS...TO NOT FEAR what can kill the body BUT FEAR THE ONE WHO CAN KILL THE BODY AND SOUL!!! Our spirit, where God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit ABIDES and my spirit ABIDES IN GOD!!! I pray to the Lord God to keep me CLOSE TO HIM. Could you please pray with me too Bishop Barron?

    Dearest Bishop Robert Barron,
    Good morning!
    A few weeks ago, I was struggling, and I eventually started to sense that fear inside of me was an attack by Satan meant to cripple my faith. And his attack was working because I was beginning to believe in Satan's agent. Whenever fear would assail me to distract my relationship with serving God, I tried to read the bible verses, but the fear didn't go away; since then, I have realized that many Christians experience similar challenges. Through the Sunday sermon, I find peace. I praise the Lord that I haven't doubted His saving work for turning my weaknesses into strengths and making it possible for me to live with Him and my family forever. Bishop, I pray that Jesus Christ continues to help me overcome fearful thoughts. Thank you for the Sunday sermon today and for praying for my family. God bless you all.
    St. pray for us.
    St. Faustina, pray for us.
    Our lady of Lourdes, pray for us.
    Sincerely yours,
    Cecilia Dreger and family (📖❤)Wilbur Sacred Heart Parishioner( Bishop Thomas Daly and retired priest )

    Bishop Barron,this video is so timely. It's the fear of losing, of, in part of having lost, my 'fear of the Lord' that I fear most just now. If that makes sense. I know that even when I can't feel his presence,he is still here, with me through everything. But I feel, and have felt, for so long, so wretched from this sense of abandonment, of loss; like I have forsaken him or am despairing of my own self. To paraphrase St.Mary Magdalene: "that 'i' have 'taken' my Lord away, and I don't know where I have put him." Then I think, who are you to expect that awareness so strongly of God's presence when so many others throughout time,and now; so much more worthy of; who served God so much more than I have, did so through worse trials than I could imagine. I don't think I have ever felt, not so much afraid of, as, overwhelmed by, the things that 'can kill the body'. But too, Bishop, I still feel a stirring of one of the three things which abide: hope. Partly so I think through just writing this down. Who indeed am I to be afraid? God bless you Bishop Barron. Your videos are always so encouraging. And God bless too, dear sister Ella for recommending them to me. Please pray for me Bishop Barron, and thank you.

    Hearing that Jeremiah reading, I interpreted "the one that could kill the body and the soul" as Satan, who will take the soul if you allow. So be afraid of Satan's temptations that can steal your soul. Do the opposite - always remain in the Lord who always saves my soul.

    Bishop Barrons uses powerful examples of saints to demonstrate those who had fear of the Lord and could truly proclaim by their lives, "Be not afraid" in the midst of a world that gave reasons to fear.
    There is something sobering about how we can suffer eternal punishment if we deny God, even as we marvel that God has made a way for us to Eternal Life to strengthen us in the midst of whatever evil can come at us in this world. Yet all the world can do is kill our bodies, not our souls.

    “….for such a time as this” (Esther 4:14). Very fitting homily especially these days. This sermon’s wisdom combined with Bishop Barron’s video, The Mass, has been an unbelievable spiritual gift the past week. The latter was so riveting, I went back frequently to absorb its rich explanations, even took notes (never, ever do this) & shall revisit again. May blessings return 100 fold to you, Bishop Barron!

    This may sound silly but one of my biggest fears is fear of becoming anxious or deeply upset inside because of what others might do to me. I don't even care what happens to me, that's God's business and he knows best, but I fear the way it may make me feel. I fear my feelings really, I seem to have such little control over them and I can get these anxiety attacks that really aren't nice. I don't know where this all comes from but it is a hindrance to me and even just tonight I've been pleading with the Holy Mother of God to save me from all of this.
    Aside from that, my biggest fear in all the world is intentionally sinning against God and offending him. I am flesh and spirit.
