Father Pat I used to listen to your cassette tapes in the 1990’s. They had a profound impact on me as a teenager. I am now nearly 50 years old!! My mum was a devout catholic and left this earth way too soon. Her faith was extraordinary and she lived according to the word of scripture. She always told me that “the desire to know God is enough for God”. I know in my soul that she went straight to heaven the night she passed and entered into the presence of Gods love. At the moment it feels like I am hanging on to life by a cotton thread. The pressures of life, the temptations and the spiritual fight are a challenge right now. I pray for personal forgiveness and healing. Please pray for my soul and the strength to go back to church.🙏. God bless my son and guide his every step. Be in the hearts and minds of all those that I love. Be in our brokenness and never give up on us. 🙏❤️.x
I love what you have wrote and I strongly believe your beautiful mother is by your side. When we feel totally isolated and under pressure it is almost impossible to see how God is helping us this is when we must learn to trust even though we may feel nothing. God is with you. God bless you. John Emmanuel
@@johnemmanuelmusic Thank you for your kind words. I was in Dublin last year and received a blessing from father Pat Collins. A lovely gracious man. I guess all we can do is hold on to good until the end. Life is a mystery and a gift for sure, even with the challenges it presents. You got a great voice by the way. Singing/music is a gift so keep on keeping on with that. 🙏❤️.x
