      It's true. I had a incurable health problem. It was absorbing me so much I was without hope. Then, my Father got very ill. He developed several serious problems at once, and I needed to take care of him. Then my Mother got ill and I needed to care for her too. I forgot about my illness, because I had to serve them. It was a Blessing in disguise. Yes, it was difficult. But in order to forget your troubles, serving others will remedy depression and loneliness. Thank God for Archbishop Fulton J Sheen. May he rest in eternal peace. Amen.

    So beautifully said.🕊️Realizing what our God went through for us here on earth in a human body, our King Who gave His last drop of blood and Who stumbled to the throne. Thus showing us the depth of our own humanity in Him and through Him. Showing us in every way possible how deep and wide and high the love of God is for us..While we were and are unworthy. In this way he overcame, and so we can do through Him. So we must overcome this world through Him if we are to love like Him.🤍

    • @joytotheworld9109
      @joytotheworld9109 Год назад +5

      I think that was a gag for the most part, he seemed serious and honest when he spoke of his time becoming a professor and not being lonely again after giving to the very poor and forming a sort of guardianship over them, helping them find their feet with work etc.
      Most priests will not admit doubts and many negative feelings publicly, they are called to serve not scandalize, so when some of them go through hard times, lonliness etc. they have support and help
      from other priests and organizations that understand their unique difficulties.
      Doubts are another matter, I agree with the Bishop that Christ Jesus new what doubt was, understood the desolation of the athiest and skeptic - but I would say Jesus, our Blessed Lord, like Bishop Fulton Sheen, did not doubt God's existance, did not fail to trust in him even when their cross might have seemed too much to bear.

  • @WesternMalaise
    @WesternMalaise Месяц назад +2

    It is amazing how someone speaking such truth does not animate a whole country behind him. All the good Jesus accomplished did not prevent him from being put to death by men. All the good words spoken by Revd Fulton Sheen has not prevented the once Christian countries from losing the Faith.
    It seems that although God so loved the World that he gave his only Son, God did so that those who believed in his Son might live. A disturbing and terrible paradox. The World is loved by God enough to give his only son, but in the giving, the World is thereby condemned through its rejection of the Son. The seed once given, however, finds life in the hearts of those individuals who believe, and thus the kingdom of God grows despite all the mockery and rejection.
    These words of Sheen are for the hearts of all those individual souls who wish to be one with our Lord Jesus, the Christ, and through him, with God, despite whatever the condemned World now thinks or does.

    Venerable Fulton J Sheen is a very inspirational person from Heaven because he inspired me to become a Champion of the Holy Rosary and it's not just him but also my great grandmother because she was also devoted to the Holy Rosary as well and the reason why she was devoted because she went through hard times in her life when she lost her parents and had to raise her younger siblings and the Holy Rosary and the Catholic faith helped her get through hard times and unfortunately she died before I was born but I have a strong feeling that she's in Heaven with Venerable Fulton J Sheen.

    Loneliness always emerges
    Causes of loneliness:
    - 05:36 lonely people's desire to be loved only themselves-> they receive less love -> they become less loveable -> they are less capable of loving others
    - 10:20 people who do not give love or do not listen to people.
    Cure:
    - 10:30 Love the ones who need it the most. Listen to other people. God loves you, because he put love in you. Pray to God, and listen! You don't go to a doctor, spout off all your symptomps and then leave without hearing his answer.
    - 13:58 Go out and serve
    Misconceptions in this age:
    - 17:10 We should never feel tension -> body and spirit go in opposite direction // I think he's talking mainly about sexual urges, but you might need to learn how to incorporate body and spirit instead of enduring tension.
    - 17:50 Metaphysical longing for perfection -> nothing on this earth can fully satisfy you. You look for God, but what does he know about loneliness? Imagine a captain that came to us and refused to immunize himself against loneliness and took all the loneliness of the world, all the tragedy and did not get overcome by it but conquered it all. That's a captain who stumbled up to his throne and earned it. I will fall sometimes, but I will endure it for my captain

    Here are the main points from Bishop Fulton Sheen's lecture on loneliness, organized in bullet points for easy reading:
    *Causes of Loneliness:*
    - Excessive desire for love and attention
    - Egotism and self-centeredness
    - Refusal to listen to others
    - Not showing love and attention to those in need
    *Examples of Unhealthy Behavior:*
    - A mother who calls her daughter excessively and protests that she's not appreciated
    - A fiancée who writes anonymous letters to herself to get attention
    - A wife who demands her husband's attention and causes him to lose his job
    *Cure for Loneliness:*
    - Caring for others and serving those in need
    - Showing love and attention to those who are often overlooked or marginalized
    - Focusing on others to shift away from one's own loneliness
    - Creating a sense of connection and purpose through service to others
    *Additional Insights:*
    - Listening is a therapeutic and can help cure loneliness
    - Refusal to listen intensifies loneliness
    - Serving others can help us overcome our own loneliness
    Let me know if this helps!
