Responsibility!

    Thank you father Brendan,I feel the Lord sent this storm to give us a warning that nothing, nobody has any power only God. If we don't mend our ways there is more to come unfortunately. The Bishop's and priests never spoke to the people afterwards, why are they silent? Who are they afraid of? Irelands people needs to wake up when they are voting. The ordinary people like farmers,volunteers community centers, took charge of the country while our elected representatives went on holidays. Thanks very much to them. Thanks also to Electric lreland and the help from abroad shows how we need our neighbours when things get rough

    Thank you fr. Brendan. Very incitefull as usual. I have to say I love that passage in St. Marks Gospel on the calming of the storm and the image of Jesus standing in the boat with his hand rsised saying "quiet now, be still"...our parish priest was so concerned for his parish that he prayed many rosaries during the storm for the safety of his flock...the calling of every priest to offer the Holy sacrifice of the mass and to constantly intercede for his people...God is truly awesome and storms should reming us of this...

    Timely reminder as always that the God who created and who sustains the entire Universe, can command all to obey.
    Each of us needs to try to lean into that omniscience - in good times, to give thanks and in tough times to ask for help. He will listen. He is always there
    We may not get a solution that we want but He will sustain us, if we ask.
    That meteorological storm caused huge reparational damage.

In the past 2 storms I availed of Radio Maria once there was power and the full Rosary with Fr Peyton and a CD featuring Dana, via a battery operated CD player in Storm Eowyn, very beneficial and peaceful as the focus was on the Good God rather than the storm. My daughter 28 yrs affected with severe intellectual and physical disability exhibits signs of stress when wind is howling, yet she slept thru till 5 am with the recent storm and our location is close to the sea with Loop Head across the water.

    We shared the following, said our prayers, blessed the house, trusted in God, and never flinched as the storm raged beyond our wee fortress, thanks be to God 🙏🏻
    Par 1731 from the Diary of St. Faustina*
    "Today I was awakened by a great storm. The wind was raging, and it was raining in torrents, thunderbolts striking again and again. I began to pray that the storm would do no harm, when I heard the words: *Say the chaplet I have taught you, and the storm will cease* . I began immediately to say the chaplet and hadn't even finished it when the storm suddenly ceased, and I heard the words: *Through the chaplet you will obtain everything, if what you ask for is compatible with My will*".

    @johnjon1823 4 дня назад +2

    I had no idea you had a storm over there. But then, you know when they marched Jesus off to crucify Him, most of the world had no clue it was happening, let alone to whom it was happening. In that I take hope God is in even the trivia of my life, and that every life, and all its troubles are noted by Him, while the world may remain oblivious to it all. It's the birds of the air not one falling He doesn't know about. Hard to imagine how He knows each person and all situations intimately so. But it makes each life and each death very profound no matter the wealth or fame. Littleness is okay. Like my Rosary said so poorly, but I see it as a poor stick figure drawing one gives to his mother, she puts it up for all to see, around here we put it on the front of the front of the refrigerator. Stick figure prayers I think are appreciated from children, young or old. For God nothing his children do is small. At least that's how I take it. Always good to ask the help of the saints. I think Our Lady has a large fridge.

    Hi, new to this channel. Can I ask you to cover? I mean, do a video on the genocide in Gaza. Going to mass on Sundays I see the priests can't mention the name Palestine or Gaza. They'll pray for peace in the Middle East, theyll pray for peace in the Ukrain but not Palestine or Gaza . That, for me, is very puzzling. Even the Pope has mentioned Gaza and Palestine, but for some reason, priests in Ireland are silent. Especially now when the orange man has suggested ethnic cleansing of the Gaza strip, I'm wondering if that will prompt a priest to open his mouth on the subject. I think we'll survive the storm here, but will the world survive the evil that has happened over the last year and a half in Gaza in the name of the Bible or will evil win again. It's time now for the church to step up to the plate and do something. I'm eagerly awaiting your response.

Priests speak out against evil, whether it be here in Ireland, or around the world. As human beings and humanitarian people all over the world, Christians , Muslims, and Jews have spoken out against the slaughter of these human beings. How some people have not been affected by the images of slaughtered children is beyond belief. What's your point. Is it turn away and pretend you don't see. ???
