Saying Goodbye, Starting Over, and Transitioning
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 фев 2025
- Change is always hard. Transitions in life are difficult. Goodbyes are never easy. Endings are rarely joyful. But today, Fr. Mike suggests that beginnings are even more crucial. He encourages us to take 3 steps whenever we start over, and to let each one of ourselves “be a beginner.”
Be patient with yourself.
Don’t freak out.
And be willing to ask for help.
Fr. Mike has way more to say about trusting God, and a great place to start is his book Untroubled by the Unknown: Trusting God in Every Moment (tinyurl.com/25.... We hope it's a blessing to you!

Purification versus poisoning.... Such an important distinction.
Well shoot, you had to go and make me cry at the end, Father. My ex and I thought we were going to get married. However, he felt a strong call to the priesthood. We broke up a little over a month ago, and next week, he is leaving for seminary. Tomorrow will be the last time I see him one-on-one in person until maybe Easter. Saying goodbye is hard. But praying that we both remain strong. May the trials be purifying, not destructive. May we both be gentle with ourselves - we've left that home, and it's OK to still be a beginner after a month away from it. May the journey follow God's path, whatever it may be.
Praying for you both 🙏
I don't believe God wants men to be alone. Sex is the greatest thing in life and these poor men who are told that they can't have it...and it's biologically needed for them...it's so sad. I just feel so bad for priests. They get screwed by religion.
@@Kathrynlove I'm sorry you have such a worldly selfish view. I'm pretty sure you have never gotten very deep with religion or read the Bible or try to understand why priests do what they do. Your comment literally comes from the devil himself and is nothing but a lot of bs. Do yourself a favor and go talk to a priest and get clean and confess. If your not religious then why are you here? God help you.
@@Kathrynlove why are you on this video.. lol. odd. men make a choice, God doesn't make them do anything. They are awarded in heaven for that. It isn't easy and most priests know this going in and I'm sure have discussions about it. We all carry crosses in our lives and priests carry one of the heaviest
@@Kathrynlove Hahaha why do you think sex is the greatest thing in life?
I can definitely relate. My husband of 34 years died. So here I am now a widow living alone. I had to sell my house and downsize to a much smaller place, besides the overwhelming grief I was going through. Now, nearly a year and a half later, I have finally transitioned to a new life on my own. I still miss my husband every day, but thanks to prayers and support from family and friends and thanks to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I am able to look forward to each new day. Patience is definitely the key. 🙏✝️🙏
I'm sorry for your loss. My wife of 31 years passed away almost 6 years ago. It was more devastating than I would have imagined, such a difficult transition. I miss her every day but keep looking to God and moving forward. Transitions/disappointments in my earlier life usually turned into unexpected blessings which helps me to move forward with faith. I hope you find the same.
Same boat, Lost my husband of 19 years, the pain is beyond words, my life changed forever. God is the only one can help me to keep up-going, He will 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I just moved with my entire family from the US to Italy about 2 months ago, this really helps me.
The best thing abt Fr. Schmitz is that hes not only a great priest but also a great life coach😄
Do you know Fr. Mike?
@@GabeJoePiti does she need to? I believe what she is saying is that aside from a positive spiritual guidance, he is very relatable as a human being in our day-to-day lives… A bridge of sorts
I want to leave my hometown and toxic work environment, worked there for over 12 years, it's a bar where employees are barely sober, and I've decided to stop drinking. Been sober almost 1 month now! I know the move will be scary but I'm trusting Him completely with my home, finances.
Awesome! You can do it, Jesus is so proud of you. I will keep you in my prayers
I hope you are doing well. God bless.
Fr. Mike makes me think. Thank you.
I sent in my resignation to my company because of toxic work environment. I was doubting myself for so long, but after last week's Reading from Ecclesiastes 1:2, I submitted it. Fr Mike your video couldn't have come at a more perfect time 🙏🏼❤️
Prayers for you in your fresh start, toxic is never good.
Happy for you!! 🙏♥️
Yesssssss hi Ariane! I separated from mine 10 months ago because of same….. and have accepted that the decision I made was certainty not abrupt and I felt and it all came to pass (each contributing event prior to the resignation), everything was with the Holy Spirit’s guidance… FOR I KNOW THE PLANS I HVE FOR YOU SAYS THE LORD….. 🤍🕯🕊
I'm experiencing a change...trying to go with it.
At my son's..family in a different state..routine is SO not as it used be....how appropriate for me, Fr. Mike
Me too! Amen!
Oh my goodness! I was just about to type EXACTLY what you typed, Arianne! I too resigned my from company because of a toxic work environment; I too doubted myself; and last week's reading fro Ecclesiastes and this video from Father Mike were very timely and very comforting. I will pray for your in your new start, Arianne. Please pray for me.
SO HARD! I don't know what I'm doing!!! I lost Paul after 70 yrs of being together- 68 yrs married.
Not just difficult!! I am very old!! No choices. I try every single moment to give it to God. My priest said it was alright to be mad at God. I'm not. Just hurt and more than change and so much grief ! I invite God in. No words.
Sounded like I don't believe God can take this away- but I do not ever believe that. I wonder what God is wanting me to learn with this time of so much grief and change.
My dear Shirley I am so so sorry for your loss. I am praying for you, I wish I could just give you a big hug.
I pray with all my soul that God comforts you in this painful time. He will. Somehow, some way he will.
God bless you.
Dear Shirley, my heart is full of emotion for you. I watched my Mother fight through this same pain and change. Let others help and ask for help. Prayers bringing you closer to God help bring comfort.
I have since lost both parents. Life changing as they were my best friends. My Mom’s strength and learning those 2 things from her have helped me too. I listen to Fr Mike’s Bible in a Year pod cast. Learning more everyday day and growing closer to God brings peace and happiness even when I am grieving.
Hugs and prayers my friend.
I’m sorry to read this- you must have lived a faithful life together and lived your duty as a married couple- your life has been a testimony to faithfulness and good example to others going through tough times. My mother also went though this and her faithfulness has a continuing powerful influence on all her family years later. Take all the help you can get as the Lord works through other good people❤️🙏☘️
I’m a teenager going through something big right now and trying to get through a sinful habit. I’ve been trying for so long and I just need you guys to please pray for me lots and storm heaven with prayers so I can get over my habit. Thank you very much.
keep saying this , Jesus I Surrender myself to you, take care of everything, Lord.
I pray Our Blessed Mother Mary covers you with her mantle and St Michael protect you and cut the cords with his might sword and release them to Heaven for healing 🙏 ❤

My thoughts and prayers are with you 🙏.
Dr.Trish Leigh on RUclips. See if her stuff helps.
Turn off the TECH
Of course! Lord Jesus Christ be there for this wonderful sister. 🙏
Be kind with yourself. I got rid of my habit by committing it to God every Lent for 3 years. After the 1st year, I thought , yay, back to my habit. But now, I'm like, no, no, not going there. Now I'm working on another habit that needs to go. Take care!!!!
I just came across this vid and its timing is impeccable. Thank you. I will be patient with myself. I will not (try) freak out. I will let myself be a beginner.
Recently, my spouse died, and I had to say goodbye to my old life and I am beginning a brand new personal life. My life is now lonely, painful, confusing, and my family and friends think it’s all kinda funny because I’m not supposed to need anyone anymore. It’s not funny or cute. I’m praying often, relying on God completely and surrendering my life.
Thank you Father Mike!
I pray you are doing better now ❤🙏🏼
Im sorry youre going through that friend. Here's to you, i'll be wishing for better days for you to enjoy.
Jesus & Mary, I love you. Save souls.
Amen 🙏 thank you Lord!
I am a 64-year-old man and want to say that you are a beautiful person and priest, Fr. Mike. Thank you for your videos. You bring me so much peace through your messages-and I love your sense of humor. May God abundantly bless you, as you have blessed me.
Nice words Mike. Godbless you in your new directions. We are in Flux all our lives!
A very timely video for me because I will start a new job tomorrow. Even though this video was released a year ago. God provides what we need when we need it
Retired at the start of the year. Moving to the other side of the world next month. Really appreciate the pep talk, even at my age. Never stop learning. Never stop growing. Never EVER stop praying. ALWAYS trust in the Lord.
All the best with your move 😀
You are brave to make such a huge change Good for you👍🏻👍🏻
@@dianeguinan2114 Thank you.
Praying for you, Paul. Things happen when we get out of the boat (note to self, lol). Probably a similar age. Feel both scared and exhilarated but looking forward to the next stage in my life. God bless you and guide you.
Safe travels and may you be blessed on your new journey.
¡Gracias!
Thank you so much for your generous gift! 💛
I left my job the day this video came out. Everything happens for a reason.

Thanks a lot.
God's timing is too good. I'm just starting a new job, and Father Mike's gave great advice about being humble as a new beginner even if you have expertise. I needed this.
best of luck :-) ah, and the reminder to be patient with yourself (I so needed that)
As others have said, I needed to hear this. Leaving behind toxic people or things after more than 10 years can be hard bc it feels comfortably uncomfortable. But hold on, stay put, let go and let God...even if the answer is being alone. Alone is better than miserable.
This brings to mind the saying about if you are holding onto an object so tightly with your hand into a tight fist, no matter what, that hand can never freely give or take the next opportunity it has. Release your fingers.....Prayers. ❤
@Bi-polar Bear Keep your eyes on the Cross friend, eyes to the Cross... ✝
@Bi-polar Bear It is. Don't listen. I stayed way to close for too long to someone who is extremely toxic. I stayed longer bc I knew that I would be alone if I removed this person from my life. But during this "alone" time you can find yourself again. You may not be the same person, and have to confront that. You might have a lot of work to do to rebuild you, or just move on, but don't go back. I went back many times, and all it was was a waste of time, heart, and soul.
@Bi-polar Bear no you wouldn’t. The devil is telling you that. You deserve so much better
Agreed
Very timely…🥹
I remember being so trapped and I said to God ok you win lead me and I will do what you want me to do and I have met a girl just recently and I took it as a sign that everything was going to be ok.and that this was just the starting point for me that I can be with somone who actually sees me for me and I just want to give a huge shoutout to fr.Mike for this because he once told me to let my anger go and let god take the wheel I am so happy its a miracle thank you Fr.Mike
Well said Father.
Retirement is another life event that is so challenging. Leaving friends, a scheduled routine, a job you believed in, duties and responsibilities -- and seeing your house duties in a new way 😱 aren't easy shifts! Learning how to allow yourself to be retired is so difficult and humbling, but it will happen!
Thanks be to God for this wonderful life challenge and beautiful blessing!
God has made the path all you do is follow him any footsteps it takes are left behind. Footsteps fav. prayer of my dad. Somehow God saves us even after we fall but I am satisfied with supreme ignorance of divinity
You're messages are so CLEARLY GOD'S TIMING . That in itself makes me cry. What a gift to the World you are Father. ❤
Beautiful video Father Mike! God bless you and the ministry here ❤
I am muslim and I have to sas thank you sir this was so helpfull. Soon I will need to left all and eversone behind ane move to a new city for new job and career and I felt so scared . This video gave me hope and faith and calmness and like someone really underatand.
Hello father Mike. We ♥️ you
Thank you!😊
Needed to hear this one today- starting a brand new job in a new area in about 3 weeks- leaning on my trust in Him to keep going
Change happens to us, transition happens through us 🦋
Thank you Father Mike! I’m a teacher and this the the time of the summer where my anxiety starts, worrying about the new school year and all my new school kids.
I can already tell you're a great teacher
@@Veritas1234 thank you...God Bless
God will bless you. You're amazing already.
Fr. Mike, I'm a protestant Christian, but I know that God pointed me to this video. I'm starting college in a few days and the advice you gave is just what I needed! God's timing is amazing. God bless you!

@@uikmnhj4me Thanks for checking in. It's been good so far! I'm entering the junior year grind though! Lol!
Reminds me of becoming a parent. You can't wait until you are 'ready.' You are never going to be totally ready. If you believe it is The Good Lord's will to go in a certain direction, just go and pray for His peace, direction, and strength.
I am transitioning into a new life of new job, married, new friends, new religion as a Catholic at the age of 40. I am looking forward, and I pray Lord Jesus to guide me.
That is amazing! Welcome home! I will pray for you and your job, and your relationships with your husband and friends. May God bless you
Thank you for your positive words. I just left a toxic work environment and you just affirmed that I made the right decision.Thank you and God Bless!
Usually beginings are like a honey moon feeling of something new. For me it is more difficult after on the first year. It is no longer new and you're still learning.
LEAN into Jesus! Beautiful message- give yourself GRACE and LEAN on GOD
I am Grateful for You Fr. Mike the Fact that You are On Fire for Gods Messages for the World to Know Love and Trust God is a Breath of Fresh Air ! God Bless You Fr Mike 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Oh my. Such a timely message. I lost my beloved brother, best friend and soulmate the end of April 2024. The end of a 74 year relationship. I am a Beginner and am struggling to find my way and redefine who I am in life without my mainstay. But I absolutely DO understand about leaning into the Lord, something that became immediately apparent when I lost my brother. Thank you, Fr. Mike.
I've been struggling so hard at my new job for all the reasons you've mentioned. Very timely as always Fr. Praying for you.
When I find that I am struggling with how to best help my aging parents, to adjust to needing help for somethings they could manage previously. My husband was diagnosed with a rare syndrome which led to the discovery of a stage 1 pancreatic malignant tumor. He had to almost die to remind him about the precious nature of life. During the interminable wait for surgery to remove the mass (1 year) we lost a close family friend, a long time neighbor and shortly after the surgery my husband's aunt to cancer. Still he has held on to his rediscovered faith following all of this. He inspires me to strive to match him step for step as we face life's challenges together. God bless
I need this so bad . Having a very hard time letting go and moving on. Even when God is telling me I need to and confirming it over and over . I need help letting go . Praying to Mary for help 🙏
Great TOPIC - there are elders dealing with loneliness, death or divorce, some sad, some happy.
This year I woke up to see all the atrocities being committed for “the good of mankind.” I lost all my friends. My secular life is just barely alive, if not, almost dead. After being told by the Holy Ghost approximately 2 and a half weeks in advance about a miracle I would see and lo and behold, the miracle did happen, I am back to walking in God’s faith. I don’t ever want to deny God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost again. I thank Him every day for being so patient for letting me come back to Him on my own time. Jesus is King!
Wonderful to hear. Keep walking that narrow path with Christ.
Don’t mean to pry but can you share what the miracle was specifically?
Thanks Father Mike for being you.🎉
Huge life change,grief, my beautiful husband,the best of the best, was called home to Jesus Christ……Thank you for your kind words, God Bless….much Christian love to you Father Mike….
Fr mike
Yur homilies
I listen all the time
They are truly inspiring
God bless yu always
🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 Amen
This is great. I transitioned from a relationship that I thought they were "the one" to not speaking to them for a few weeks now. However, I know that it is important like father said to 'be patient with myself' and trust the process of beginning a new stage of life. Thanks, father and Ascension :)
I'm still trying to reach the point of fully and totally letting go.... We work in the same building, now we sort of speak, we hung out recently, I know I shouldn't have, but they were insisting and k always liked his company, but I want to truly move on and let go and leave him in the life he chose. I want to let go entirely to see GOD'S Promises flow for me, but I want that full healing 1st, I need it.
what a gift it is to be a lifelong student of myself ♡
@Gibby Cash Il keep you in my prayers do aswell and have faith, the diference between ,whos gonna be ok with whatver comes, and those who will be desparate not knowing what to do , stays in youre persoanl conection, to the holy spirit, wich is being built , true often prayers and bible study! if you dont have a bible ,get one asap, theres nothing more important for you than to get youre sword and shield against evil! the bible is not a book, the bible is gods word! its literaly everything worthy and meanigfull: faith, wisdom, love ,shelter,forgiveness, joy, meaning, asurence,security,-its literaly gods private chanel to the siner, true faithful prayers, and bible study, the siner stays in conetion to god, wich abolished him of all sins and second death, true faith in jesuses! no one will be in heavens , due to his deeds, or because he is a sevenbth day adventist! only by faith in jesuses hrist, and consistency in prayers!
This is a big this for me,getting back to god was the best thing ever happened to my life went through a lot,I questioned the existence of him and all of a sudden because of his grace he revealed himself now I'm trying to quit my bad habits and become a son of my all mighty fathet,he is real and he's there for us
Thank you Father 🙏 Because not saying goodbye it’s the continuation of something without that person but the memories kept alive , it’s to be Stuck in the past! “I say Goodbye to every past memory 🙏”
Aug. 2023. I will be starting a new job that I will need to be trained in because it is a position change.
My personal life with change drastically. This is the message I needed to hear. Thank you father Mike.
Exactly a year ago this week, I transited into a new job. It was scary and not easy. I experienced so many doubts and wanted to quit so many times. But somehow by Grace, I stayed. It feels now that it was a stage of being patient with myself and the situation that helped me. Transition and change are never easy but prayer and working with Grace helped a lot.

Dear Fr Mike, Thank you for this amazing reminder, that I need to embrace a new beginning. At 50 yrs old, I moved to WI from CO, Sept '19, and just experienced a house fire, a week after that I lost my job. I know God is working in my life, but this is a very precarious time in my life. Please, if you can take a moment and pray for me, that I see God's will for my life, that I can embrace the new struggles, trust, and surrender completely my will for God's will for my life and permit him to lead me. I rest in peace and discerment in this moment, I am looking for a home ... or will my life always be moving from place to place on mission of service to Our Lord, and help others on their path of conversation or reversion into the Catholic Faith, which I love with all my heart.
You are in my prayers daily JMJ pray for us. Blessings and Peace, Amy
Thank you Father Mike for making these videos!
Fr Mike has a great little book...Untroubled By The Unknown...from Ascension Press. Very good!
Father thank you for Sunday sauce... Ha ha you are so real to the task and profound joy of speaking to us that somehow we are all around the table the virtual last supper with Jesus. Thanks for inviting us.
💙 bravo fr.mike, , beginnings are more challenging! 💙
God bless your soul ☆☆☆
Great wording Father Mike. In order to succeed in life with ew challenges is to face them directly and not avoid it. You will make mistakes, it the mistakes will built you and will be lessons that can serve you your whole life. And will he’ll build you into the successful human being you deserve. Don’t give up, but give in to and take the step forward and face the challenge
This is perfect timing. I’m a nurse and our entire hospital has a new charting system. It is so overwhelming not knowing what to do. Everyone is on edge and it’s total craziness… Trying to care for our patients is my priority but man oh man is is hard.
Fr Mike I'm a huge fan of your videos and have learned so much ,I'm in the process of converting to catholism and your videos have really helped me understand what it is to be a Catholic ,I will be forever grateful for finding your videos God bless
Thank you Father Mike. My beloved mom passed away six weeks ago and the transition to life without her is so difficult. Thank you for your thoughts.

This is so good. We’re military family so we’ve moved often. I gave up a job that I absolutely loved for the next assignment. We’ve had 8 churches in 18 years. I’ll tell you when you move that often you may feel a bit of detachment towards your next community, always the outsider looking in. I completely agree that the beginning is the hardest. It’s hard because you’re lonely and isolated. It’s hard because as a mom you tend to put the needs of your kids and family first. It is in those times that I try to give myself a little grace, I try to remember my foundation in Christ.
Laurianne, I totally can relate. We were in the military 26 years and raised 3 sons around the world and back again. Being new was our middle name. It is so lonely at first; took us about 7 months, at least to feel like we fit in. First thing was church or trying to find one. Sometimes we didn't even really make friends, just work acquaintances; we just traveled, went to church, work and school.
Thank you Father Mike, I’m going through a hard breakup right now and this video came at a good time :)
Echo every word you said. The timing of this video was perfect.
I'm so sorry
Yea
Thank you father me and my girlfriend recently broke up. We had been together for almost 7 years at the least it's a goodbye for now and at the most its goodbye to that life with her. It's something we both need we were together since I was 17 and she was 15 it's hard but it's something that's needed. May God bless you Father Mike!
same here man, not quite as long as 7 years but painful nonetheless. keep the faith that God’s working for your good :) praying for ya brother
May God bless you young man, you are so young yet and if you talk to parents/ grandparents/ faithful older people they could reassure you that the adventure is just beginning, take heart, have courage and trust in Him.
Thank you brother I will now be discerning the call to priesthood I would really enjoy your prayers I will be praying for you and your transition as well! God bless 🙌

40 and ancient? No way. I had to relocate because there not jobs where I used to live. I was in my late 50s. I was blessed to get the job I am at now. You will do fine. Trust the Lord.
GRACIAS Father Mike, GOD Bless You ☝️💯💯
It's so unreal! Just going through a crazy beginning at work and here it is, exactly what I needed to hear!❤️
Thank you Fr. Mike 🙏🏼
I love you, Father Mike! Praying for you!

Seeing people who are new is a frightening experience, I’ve had that feeling often since I graduated high school. The beginner’s jitters don’t go away even when you are in your 30’s.
I just went through a really rough last month. Seeing the notification for this video reminds me that God is always there for us. Thank you
Thanks Fr Mike, for the inspiration, and encouragement. God Bless. Claire.
I cried, it’s hard but I want to persevere. Thank you Fr. Mike 💛
These talks are so valueable to me and thousands more people. Thank you so much, Father. You are a wonderful person.
Glad this wasn't about the first kind of 'transitioning' that came to mind
How these videos are released at the right time is just... WOW. God's timing and mercy is incredible!

thanks to Fr. Mike for preaching the sermon.
God is so good! I just left a 6 year long cohabitation relationship with my fiance and have two little girls. After becoming Catholic last year my faith became so alive and important. I've been struggling with this decision even as a protestant, I finally stepped out with the strength of the Lord. So many times I'm afraid it's the wrong choice, but I know I want a faith filled marriage and family.

Father Mike, you are a very good person. I’ve worked in environments where no one would help a beginner- quite the opposite! But that’s not you, and that’s not me - we are the salt and we are the light! Thanks for an encouraging message today. ✝️⚓️❤️
I love you Father Mike tell me the truth 🎉🎉🎉😊😊
I'm leaving my current, protestant church and coming back to the Catholic Church, my childhood one to be specific. Really beautiful one. I believe God is leading me back. I want to learn everything I didn't know before conversion. I want to know Mary. I want the Eucharist, take it for the first time being truly aware. I want it all. And these videos are extremely helpful!
God Bless!
Look up the nine holy Fridays x
