Life In Hidden Light

- Video of life inside an enclosed Carmelite community, including short excerpts of interviews with some of the Sisters. The Discalced Carmelites of Wolverhampton, UK, would like to thank Miranda Tasker and Marcus Nield, who made this film, for their hard work and professional skill. With only basic equipment, they did the filming and put together the presentation with sensitivity and understanding.
To all the people who can't understand why they want to stay away from the world, think about it like this: when you fall in love with someone, I bet you want to spend all your time with them. They are the centre of your life right? These nuns are in love with god. They want to talk to him. Be with him. Read works on him. His voice is clearest when they are in silent contemplation away from the world. They have a desire to know God, speak to him, to understand him. I think to a certain extent, most intorverts will be able to relate to the idea of being by yourself in the quietness. Some people enjoy it. It doesn't feel like a punishment.
True, when you have a relationship with God, the one who is the source of everything, you have everything in the castle of your heart as Saint Teresa of Ávila used to say.
My late wife was a Carmelite in her youth. It was a life devoted to grueling work and prayer, meditation and silence. After two years as a Novitiate, she declined her final vows. But as long as I knew her, my beloved wife embodied the teachings of the The Little Flower and was a blessing to all who knew her. She did not gossip, kept secrets, was loyal and in spite of failing health, always eager to help and work hard. She remains my only devotion to this day. Bless those that carry on and bless her eternal soul.
PS: These Carmelites are fortunate, they make noise! In my wife's time you were frowned upon if you made noise while eating or if you were working. No idle chatter and TV and Radio were strictly rationed as were newspapers or magazines. Scrubbing floors on your knees and cooking with huge pots starting right after prayers and before Dawn.
Did you have children?
So beautiful. Very moving!
Amen

I was raised in the convent by the Dominican Nuns. I cannot compare my life there with others who were raised in a "normal" home, but I can say that I was truly loved and cared for by them. I was educated by them and went on to receive my degree in medicine. I have never missed or wanted what I never had ... Parents. I consider myself lucky and very special to have been loved by these truly wonderful and caring people💕
Nicky Keightley, hello and greetings. May the good God continue to bless you the rest of your days, as indeed he has hitherto. Under his guiding hand may you be Great, Loving and caring in your medicine and your application thereof. Peace.
Do not underestimate the academic achievements of these women. They are sent to the best catholic universities in Europe, they need to master a minimum of 3 languages, they have to finish an academic degree before final vow. They have to study philosophy, theology, and biblical studies like priest before admittance to the professorium. They are not enslaved, ignorant of brainwashed. Monastic people like these women saved our western civilization together with monks.
How if they do not leave the convent?
Thank you for this information. These women are amazing.
Yes! I wish I could be this accomplished in my faith.
Robin Garrett..."before their admittance"
Norlito Concepcion COULD NOT AGREE MORE!!! Except for the child In Africa who never heard of your god . He goes to eternal hell .. and the child who got molested by the monks he probly will be scared from the religon with severe ptsd and will have to go to enternall hell also for leaving other than that spot on!
My daughter is a nun and I am so proud of her and her love for God 🙏🏻
What a luck! God must be so un love with her
Congrats on wasting her youth
You must be very proud. I thank God for her and you.
David Banks...wonderful!
A classmate of mine went to join the Carmelite sisters after we graduated from high school. I never really talked to her a lot but she was pleasant to hang around with whenever I got the chance. She was always so quiet and was never really quick to anger when something went wrong. Most of the time in our classes she would be reading a book quietly to herself while everyone else was busy being noisy. She was a very strong Catholic. She’s always wanted to become a nun especially a Carmelite one. I may not be a strong believer in God but I know that she’ll find true peace and happiness in the sisterhood. I also know that she’s praying for me in there. She sacrificed a normal life to live this one. I hope to someday see her again. 🙂❤️
Deion Passi That is so cool!!!
this is beautiful she’s definitely praying for you. also God loves you :) your life is precious take care of it in whatever you do
I'm not catholic, im an evangelical Christian, but I respect these womens way of life and I can understand the choice to live a life set apart from the world devoted to God. Many might call it boring or pointless but it's not, not when you know Jesus, what a blessing it would be to grow closer to God without having to battle with the world holding you back.
James N Because evangelicals are still human beings who naturally want partnership and companionship with another person. As an atheist who studies science, unless the person is asexual/aromantic, it's a natural human instinct to be social. That's why most don't choose the nun lifestyle.
Neeve Dd urgh God Bless your soul for understanding it 😩❤️
I'm not a very religious person but I admire people like these nuns who devote their lives to something they whole heartedly believe in.
I think it's horrible that so many people have such mean things to say. To live in such a way that brings pure joy to your heart and peace to your mind is a beautiful thing in this crazy and chaotic time we live in! May the Lord bless others through your devotion to Him in love and prayer! I got the calling when I was young but life took me on another path and now, as a married person I am falling in love with Jesus and contemplative prayer all over again!
The elderly nun towards the end talking really touched my heart! Bless the women who devote their lives to pray for the world. 🙏🙏
Im an atheist but this was really calming and informative. Bless y’all and have a good day everyone!
❤
After a crazy, long, hard day this brings me peace, and reminds me of God's love. Peace be with you, and all those who left hateful commets - peace be with you
A friend of mine joined the Carmelite Order recently and I must say; the Sisters are the most beautiful, fulfilled, God-minded, miraculous people you will ever meet - if you get the opportunity to meet them. Praise God for them!
They have more joy, more hope and more faith than anyone living on the outside.
It's an strange and wonderful mystery - how God reveals Himself to a person in Secret.
Thank you sisters for hearing your calling from God to a contemplative prayer life. You are a part of the fabric that holds the world together. The only pity is that they're are not more cloisters over the globe doing these heroic acts of prayer. A sincere Thank You!
KoKeeKola we have a caramilite monastery 2 min from home. They are awesome ☺.
I just loved the Nun who kept saying the world is a mess.
I remember going to visit some sisters in a carmelite convent a few years ago. It was my first time. They were beautiful. The light (Holy Spirit) shinning from their faces was incredible.
as long as these ppl continue praying for the entire humanity, we are still safe and blessed
I just want to thank you Carmelite sisters for all your sacrifices and prayers for all the people in the world. May God bless you sisters. Much love from Philippines ♥️
I had always wanted to be a nun. Im not catholic, but was struck by the devotion. When i was in first grade i would fast and read my bible during meal time to focus. I am so happy to find this...
Embracing such kind of life is trully the grace from God cause no one could stay long to sacrifice of oneself for JESUS, it’s an extra ordinary gift which really i loved to those who are called with this kind of simple and holy life...God bless you Sisters continue to be the prayer warrior of the whole world ❤️🙏
Wow. What a sweet and simple life. Bless them. I can't believe the negative comments here.
The elderly nun’s laugh is priceless, so full of pure innocence, joy and contentment. I’m hoping that the Lord will protect her and put her in safe hands, and when the time comes for her to meet him, that he and all the angels and saints will keep her in their loving arms forever. Amen
What an incredible blessing she is.
Anna Barham it
Beautiful and I have no doubt this lady will be looked after as she has s now.
I think many of you are forgetting that this is their choice. They want to do this. They have answered God’s call. I truly admire their sacrifice and dedication.
Gods call to do what
@@dominiqued5509 To be religious sisters - a transcendent sign of the Church's love for Christ
This is not a call.. This is dogma .
@@onetrippyhippy3170 this is a call to prayer.
Honestly I feel better when I actually pray or attend church to actually listen and pray, it's like a meditation really.
It's not people behind phone and computer screens to judge what is a waste of life, and what is not. Thank you for providing insight into a different way of life.
"There's only one thing worth staying in mind, and that is that God loves you." Beautiful. Amen.
A life of love and peace. The nuns do their very best, their faith is strong and they are to be admired. A non intrusive look at the Carmelite nuns and their lives within the cloisters of the abbey. It takes a very special type of person to become a nun,
and I envy their tranquility and the pure love they have for God. In return, God blesses and supports them in their journey of life. God Bless these gentle ladies.
Because of their prayers, Jesus is showering his mercy on us.. Thank you Jesus... Praise the Lord🙏🙏
Not what I expected at all. Actually quite touching and really beautiful.
So beautiful! I'm thinking about becoming a nun but I'm not sure if it's my path, so I'll just keep praying until it's clear what path God wants me to take.😊
Ask to join them for a little bit. Sometimes God just wants you to take action and Trust Him. Don’t get stuck in your head “thinking”.
Living the life can make things clearer and you will quickly discover whether the life brings you joy.
ill pray for you
i hope you find your path soon.
Try one of there spiritual retreats.Monasteries hold them every year just find the one nearest to you and go and decide for yourself.
You would’ve be able to watch Lord of the Rings! ;-)
You could always be one of the non-cloistered nuns though, that out in the world. It may be less hard on you
Prayer isn't something you do. It's something that God does that you're open to.
So beautifully explained. Please pray for me sisters.
Their life seems so calm, peaceful and without any stress
A simple prayer life brings closer to God. Thx to all these sisters who pray and sacrifice for our world. I wish I could pray with them.
Why criticize, it is their personal choice for their own personal feelings of a greater good. Never had an insight on their lives. Much respect to these nuns.
The elderly nun, what a character and what precision of thought! Profoundly deaf and immobile yet intellectually sparkling. You feel that she has lived to the full. No surprise that her young colleague sat at her feet, so to speak . . .
The deaf nun at the end...wise lovely lady..God loves us and wants to be loved back ❤❤❤❤
I love the sisters, they are a shining light in an ever darkening world. I will pray for them as they pray for us. GOD keep them and protect their precious souls...+++
To me, these nuns are all saints. We all need to live like them. I am a Buddhist. I can't help myself crying to see these beautiful souls.
Their life is a constant prayer to God, they are the perfect example of contemplation and holiness
All of these nuns will shine like the stars in Heaven. God bless all of you and I love all of you.
Etuale Malelega Amen!
this is the worst comment section i have ever seen. i am, in fact, sort of surprised to see so many hateful athiests/agnostics. these women are perfectly happy with what they are doing, and why are yall so bothered by it? im agnostic too, but i dont badger others happiness. just because it’s not YOUR type of lifestyle, doesn’t mean others dont find contentment and happiness in it. get your head out of your asses and earn the respect you declare for.
shoji it makes me want to cry.. I’ve never been very religious. But I at least respect others and I wish others would do the same.. these ladies seem genuine and good people from what I’ve seen. Yet nothing but hateful comments towards them... it’s sad....
uninstall your genomes
Sal C. did that one make u feel big n bad? jealousy is a disease bitch, get better soon xx
The comment sections on "save your soul from satan" and "atheist questions" videos are 100% arguments. I don't recommend it unless you want debates but that's about 25%.
They hate those who have proven to have lived a life of peace, serenenity, and camaraderie in the light of Christ because they themselves can't have it. So they debase those who do.
I am personally not Catholic but these ladies are beautiful. When the sweet old lady with the hearing impairment said there’s only one thing we need to remember and that is that God loves you and wants you to love him back... truly one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever witnessed.
Honestly, this looks like an extremely peaceful, lovely existence. No children, no debts, no stress. Just spend the entire day getting close to God without distraction:-) I think more parents should be saints.
The sisters are laughing and talking to one another is the best part , they are people who choose to pray and loving god . By watching this video. i find peace in my heart!!
Some really meanspirited comments here. This was a really lovely little film
I agree It is sad and distressing that so many have nothing but nastiness to spew on a otherwise beautiful and inspiring film.
@An Easy-Bake Oven Atheists would be better to listen to than these judgmental supposed Christians
I don’t know how anyone could make horrid comments about these women. They are right that our world is a mess. They share their lives once in nearly 100 and they are insulted and slandered!
They are praying, living very simple lives in the name of their God.
Why that attracts insults is beyond my comprehension.
The film was lovely and peaceful- thank you nuns for the insight.
people with no heart or soul to understand
Haters hate. Pray for them.
They pray extra for those in need of it.
I'm sure I don't have to say more.🙏🏻
+Dottor B l agree whith you whole heartadly
The elderly nun just melted my heart. What a beautiful video. God bless them all.
Wow.
Why does their seem to be so much hate and judgments for how they are living?
This is very much how I would like life in a home to be.
It isn't depressing. It is simple.
And as St. Therese of Liseaux said, God loves simplicity and the simple.
Please pray for me. I am discerning to join a traditional order in France!
Wherever God leads you is where you can find the fullness of life that Jesus promises in John 10 . God bless sister!
becca 🙏
Bless You❤️
I will.
Surely u will be blessed only in the name
Of Jesus.... I love u Jesus....
Such a beautiful calling and life. Love the older Nun at the end, pure truth.
Dear Sisters, I serve the poorest people with special needs in Sri Lanka. May I request your prayers for God's abundant blessings. Love & Peace to All.
Even im poor in spirit hope for getting better , and please pray for me to overcome my disbelieve and sin , please pray for me 😞
The older I get i find these people more valuable..
They have no idea about reddit, google, RUclips, politics... It's refreshing listening to people outside of it all..
I wanted to be nun when I was 14 and I started to live with nuns learning My spiritual life was was so beautiful🙏❤️ but I left because I was missing my family so much !
I am an atheist who is touched by the innocence and deep devotion of these women. The elderly nun is so cute.
This was one of the most beautiful documentaries I've seen. Brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful. Thank you so much.
Same...
Such beautiful women. God bless every single one of them.
16 years of Catholic schools (inc
bs degree). I never knew a mean nun or pediphiel priest. Sorry for those who say they did. I loved them all!
People have to remember there are so many wonderful priests and nuns. Dont bash them all as each one is different just like people in general.
Demons penetrating The Church. To Give Nuns and Real Priests A Bad Name. Pray for The Real Nuns and Priests That Help Humanity With Peace. God Bless🙏🏼
Gk mkay but there is clearly a problem at the centre of the Church that does need to be addressed. Although obviously not every priest is a pedophile, there is a serious problem with enabling and hierarchy. I've always been at Catholic school, and firsthand known no pedophiles- but priests etc could still be doing a whole lot more to stop the problem
Same! I've been in a Catholic school all my primary and secondary education! All of the nuns there were lovely, strict.yet kind women.
I went to college in Loretto, Pennsylvania. US. It was a Franciscan coed college with a Carmelite Monastery nearby. I am thankful for this closer look at the institution and pray for the sisters there . God Bless you for showing us your world.
God bless these ladies!! true inspirations 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love the Carmalites, was raised around them. It was an honor👏
me too..I studied in a school run by Carmelite sisters!
I am not Catholic but I am a Christian and enjoyed this very much. I have a good friend that is Catholic and have attended novenas by our local Carmelite nuns.
"I am not Catholic but I am Christian"...
Aren't Catholics Christians?
What is making you hesitant to become a Catholic? Just curious. :)
janice w you should become Catholic. I was Protestant and becoming Catholic is the best thing the Holy Spirit ever led me to do
Thanks for appreciating something different than what you may otherwise experience or know.
God bless all these beautiful sisters for their hard work and dedication toward God and people. 💓🌻
This is a freaking cult, there is nothing in the bible that God needs women in cults for his glory.
dedication to being a nurse in a hospital ? or singing ?
thank you Carmelite nuns for all your sacrifices along with all your prayers inside the monastery ❤️
i have 3 carmelite aunts and i appreciate all that you do. Godbless us all.
This was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. God bless these beautiful women.
My mother is 72 years of age now, and in her existence she never absent going to the Catholic church, and during 6am and 6 in the evening we all knelt down to do the Holy Rosary ,,,this is how our parents build us,and I am so thankful to my mama and papa for they did their best to guide us in Godly ways, and I believe that we don't need to under intimate or judge any religious groups,just to bring our self up and put down the others,perhaps we should respect each other as the way we spread the love by our understanding and respect , after all God sees our heart not our religion. God bless us all...🙏
She didn't build you. She just taught you. Catholicism isnt for God and jesus. It's for the devil himself.
@@youtubeuser1432 In your belief and mind that's what you think about catholic, who are you to criticize us, any religion can't save us from sin, can't make u a saint, but in your strong faith and devotion, living in Godly ways sharing the love and blessings to one another it is. I think you know better who speaks the evil words and evil ways. God bless to you...
@Masferlamb 7 thanks 💗 I'm from The Philippines, Christianity here is going stronger,the devotions and church activities are all active, Glory to God that most of the youth are very responsible to the church activities, My the Power of the Lord Jesus will Reign To everyone. GOD BLESS 🙏
have you thoughts about the rampant sexual abuse scandals that happened by catholic clergy throughout the highest ranks? and is still covered up? with nothing substantial done about it? abuse that is most likely still taking place today.. and will continue.. because Catholics aren't supposed to question their religious leaders???
@@laus9953 we do.....all the time you think Catholics celebrate the disgusting paedophiles in the church?????????
"simplicity gives you truth". I love that
Beautiful sisters! With love and respect!
I hope that those with a misunderstanding of our faith can realize the beauty and simplicity of true life. God loves us. That’s powerful
I am a non-Catholic, but I have nothing but respect for these sisters.
Maggie Sue you’re always welcomed home to the Catholic Church.
My family and I have always asked the Carmelite Sisters in our neighbourhood to pray for certain intentions for the longest time. Their prayers never fail. ❤️
JM Kardashian Their prayers have no more merit with God than yours do.
I once went to school across the road from a Carmelite brotherhood building and I never thought of them. I used to sit early each morning in another building next to them (on the same side of the street) and never thought of them, but here I am nearing forty seven years of age (some thirty two years later) having failed at all I have turned my life towards and only now am I beginning to ask for guidance. I am thankful my ignorance and the ignorance of so many others (distracted by the mechanisms of society) does not have a negative effect upon such quiet and unimposing society, else they of commerce’s wheel with their ability to refuse us inclusion would mean an end to our inclusion in life’s path.
Thank you for your remaining presence in our lives,
even though we at times forget to pay you the proper attention.
God bless

Your words are filled with humility and inspiration. Much respect to you;
and God bless.
I love Carmelite Nuns.❤❤❤ I'm from the Philippines. Please include me in your daily prayer for my total healing and complete recovery may arrive on me. I am a paraplegic patient.♿
Just an observation, there's a few bad comments below...now here's the good news, these Nuns are still praying for your soul, enough though you speak ill of them....Hopefully their prayer will be answered.
Life of prayer and service. If only more of us were like this.
They are our Prayer Warriors. God Bless you, dear sisters!
I'm an Athiest. I may be on the wrong channel. But I truly, truly appreciate your glimpse into your lives and strong commitment to your faith.
Fellow Protestants, if you hate nuns and Catholics so much, why even watch this video? There are millions and millions of videos on RUclips, I'm sure there are a few out there that will fit nicely into your narrow world view. Or, perhaps on the other hand, you might consider the fact that "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved"--and I'm pretty sure that covers most sincere Catholics quite nicely. These are women who have devoted their lives to Christ; and whether or not you agree with their method, you have to admire their dedication and love for Him. Jesus said everyone would know His disciples by their love, and yet what I see in this comment section doesn't look at all like love in comparison to what these women are doing. I'm not calling you unsaved, but encouraging you to search your own heart and ask: who is behaving like the true Christian here?
Having now finished watching the documentary all I can say is: if you're a Christian, and you can't see love for God and Christ pouring out of these beautiful women, I don't know what to say to you.
Lets just pray for those people who curse and persecute us, Because we all knew the true Christianity is not just using a lots of words but it is by action accordingly.. Catholic beliefs represent of God's love, to be holy and saints as what the apostles of Jesus did, and i saw in this video having humbled heart and deeply in love to Jesus,in other term this is the way to remain in his love and to remain in HIM...Viva Kristo!🙏
The elderly nun towards the end starts off sounding confused, then talks of God made us to be loved and to love him! She does a better job preaching than anyone I've heard before! 👍👍👍
This is very graceful and beautiful to watch, thanks for this documentary. It brings peace to me, and it doesn't matter which religion you come from, the concept of having strong faith upon something much much more superior and benevolent than us and our knowledge will always bring comfort as an answer and something to grasp of the unknown.
I wasn't sure what to expect watching this but I was most struck by the humour and liveliness of these nuns-as well as their insightful commentaries on life and God. Somehow one imagines them living a life of unending silence and solemnity, and there was some silence and solemnity, but also much laughter. Some of them seemed almost aglow with happiness.
It is because they've found true happiness in prayer and silence.
You know it's a strange world when folks comment they are offended by nuns doing nothing more then living their life in prayer and service. It's their lives to live and if it makes them happy who are we to judge.
i didnt watch the whole video but the starting 2 mins feels very clam to me..it feels good when people follow their own religion..i belong to sikh religion and m not christian..but i really respect these sisters from core of my heart! 🤗
GametillGrave hair is Holy especially pubic hair
Regardless of your beliefs, you can’t help but admire the love, dedication, and sacrifice these beautiful souls give for their god, so beautiful ❤️
This life is not for everyone, so no judgements on who choses this path.🙏
Bless you, Sisters, for your life of humility, self-sacrifice, and devotion. Thank you for your prayers on our behalf, and for your example of faithful service to Christ.
My Dad's sister was a Poor Clair Nun in Manchester; yrs ago. They used to take when I was young to visit. We could only see through a wooden grate or cage. But they always made us refreshments with wonderful apple pies.
I think its beautiful that these women are dedicating their lives to the Lord. I really believe that only those who can't comprehend the spiritual significance of what they are doing are those who come and bash them and others. They are literally crucifying the flesh and emulating modesty, honesty, and humility. Someone apart of the carnal world wouldn't understand the things nuns do. Being a nun is definitely a calling and everyone chooses to dedicate their lives to the Lord differently. So be careful when you judge them because you will surely reap what you sow. God is the true judge of humanity.
❤
Well said!
As I was taking some nursing courses for renewal of my RN license, this video caught my attention and as I started to watch it, it filled me with such a peace, I can totally say I left "my reality" for a moment and was in such a beautiful place filled with God's peace. I lived with the Salesian Sisters of St. John Bosco for almost a year as I was their nurse for the convent (total of 80 nuns). I have visited nursing homes so many times and trust me, there is a big difference. Many nursing home residents seem so lonely, sad and depressed compared to elderly nuns. I think the reason for this is not only prayer, but most importantly, the fact that they are constantly active and they are always surrounded by people that care so much about them. Many (not all) nursing home elderly need
accompaniment, they need their family, friends and people that care for them to spend more time with them.
Nuns are very hard-working people (I was impressed at how much they do for others), they also pray a lot and seem SO happy all the time, never alone or sad and those in their 70s, 80s & 90s are so active. Such a beautiful life when you choose to live that way. The Carmelite nuns in this video also do a lot besides prayer, which is so valuable for our world.
Romans 12:1 does not say thay one should live in confinement. Monasticism is not holy, not if you know what happened in convents in the XVIIe in France.
But in some way, I would love to be able to live this turburlent world to live like they do. But then, how could I talk about Jesus to people, how could I testify, how could I offer Bibles, etc...?
beautiful, beautiful kind of life. Dedicated only for what really matters, God.
These women are an inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing this special and intimate part of your life with the world. God Bless each and every single one of you. You will always be in my prayers. I encourage you to continue on this journey of commitment to God. It must be such a gift to be able to spend so much time with the Lord and devote your entire being to Him.
Gretchen B R- Men to that x
Respect and love ,from a Muslim brother, for these honourable sisters❤
Bless you!
Instead of arguing, why don't you all just accept this video for what it is--a rare and beautiful glimpse of a community life of total self-offering to God.
I watch this video at least 3 times a day. It has helped me so much with my discernment. Life at Carmel is truly beautiful! It's amazing to see God work through these wonderful women!
That sweet old Nun in the bed... she is so pure... she is like a child.. we should all be able to
Explain. God like that... she made me cry
Ch She’s just as sinful as anybody else. Don’t be deceived. Paul said there are none that do good no not one.
Are your tears from laughter!!!!
I admire them and could feel entirely homely in a place such as that, some people really don’t understand. Living a full life doesn’t have to be wild nor out there but simply living doing what makes you feel completed and whole. For some that is going out, having tons of friends, vacations, the nuclear family scenario. But as with these women, they found passion in their faith and I think frankly it’s amazing how they found it in themselves to live this way in how I wish I could.
Sisters, Thank you for your prayers.the whole world needs our prayers more than ever God bless you, I Love so much
I find this relaxing and calming!
The Nuns are happy enough it's their choice and they can leave the order any time.. they are not prisoners.
Nuns helped raise me. I’m forever grateful to them.
I'm not religious by all means but I do respect these women and how dedicated they are to their faith. Must be a very peaceful life in there.
Gwen Thomas greetings. I do not believe you are not "religious by all means". I'll bet you're religious about some pop star, some movie star, some footballer, certain foods or drinks, boys and or girls, maybe even drugs and gambling and so on and so on. As indeed is most of the world, we are all "religious" about something. It is that these have chosen the right path, they have entered by the narrow gate as Christ teaches and their reward is going to be above all human comprehension. Peace.
Allan Lindsay well that is quite judgemental.
@@allanlindsay8369 You are disgusting. You're not a true catholic/christian. The Bible teaches that we should not be judgemental. Let people believe in what they believe. Don't expect everyone to be exactly like you.
There are so many cancerous people in this world.....
I'm not religious at all, but I agree with the old lady - The world is a mess! And sometimes I wish a could live like them. Many comments here make clear that the world is full of stupid, ignorant and intolerant people. Live behind walls of a monastery is in my opinion better than deal with rude fools every day.
Well then let these foolish ppl live there, less idiots in the rest of the world
we live in a sick world. there lives are full of peace, love, simplicity, happiness and i think thats beautiful. thank you for sharing this 💓💓💓💓💓💓
Bless you Aprille
Their life is so cozy and calm.
I mean the fact that they have cats just made their situation seem 100000 better
Melissa Castro Right!!! When I saw the cats I was like.. ok now I get it. This is totally doable. Lbvs
I know! Earned mega kudos from me too!!!
