I work in a large hospital. Unfortunately, some patients are often ignored. These patients may be considered the "least. among us," or those who cannot speak for themselves: those with a mental illness, a developmental challenge, or those with dementia. Im no saint, but it's easy to be kind to these folks; they are children of God. Every day, I pray as I walk into work that people will see Jesus in me. I hope they do.

“If someone knows the good they ought to do, and does not do it. For him it is sin. James.

Jesus, hear my prayers because I am weak. As a single parent things are hard on me both of my sons are autistic and my hours to work are limited because I’m now homeschooling them. I’m constantly struggling to provide the basic necessities for them I’m so ashamed. I suffered an heart attack and I’m battling lupus I’m overwhelmed. Father God hear my prayers. I constantly struggle to pay my bills and struggle to provide groceries. BUT I KEEP FAITH. Even though I want to give up. Jesus please take the fear from my heart. Father God it is you that gives me the strength to keep going. I praise you Father even as I fear homelessness please continue to give me strength.

You may feel weak with the weight of all you are going through and have endured but you are not weak, you are strong. There's no way you would have kept it together for so long, if you wasn't strong. I 🙏 life becomes easier for you and you feel the weight of all you are going through lifted. A big hug and may God bless you and your family 💗🙏🕊️

Wow! Thank for your Witness to Love. Each drop of your Mercy you are adding to the Ocean of His Mercy. As Mother Teresa once said in response to comment 'what is a drop in an ocean' she said..."but each drop makes that ocean bigger..." Thank you for sharing. 🙏

"Every time when you take a moral decision, you are standing in a self-defining way in the presence of God."

Dear Lord I pray for this single mom who is battling illness and challenges with her children; Lord we pray that this situation will be met by your Presence and Divine Guidance, we lift her to your Supernatural Power and as you always promise, to reward her faith in Jesus Name

"Each moral choice defines what your character will become". Thought provoking.

Thank you Bishop. In an age of hate and a season of contention, your lesson is soul nourishing.

Today we are being told, one is not even responsible for one's own Sins!

Dearest Bishop Robert Barron, I pray for you every day to lead us with wisdom, clarity, and a sense of unity, and for all delegates of the international Synod on Synodality meeting with Pope Francis to listen carefully to one another with the guidance and leading of the Spirit, and for God’s will to be done (church people). Also, I have prayed for Bishop Joseph Strickland and all the Bishops for peace, mercy, and forgiveness through our Lord Jesus Christ (word on fire). Bishop, I know I am weak and sinful but I don't promote disorder and conflict and I don't let ignorance lead me down into the wrong lane. God bless you all! Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us. Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us. Mary Queen of Heaven over Earth, pray for us. Faithfully yours, Cecilia Dreger and family (🌳Loyalty increases sweat passion and endurance) Wilbur Sacred Heart Parishioners (💦 Bishop Thomas Daly and FATHER RAJ).

IMO the best Bishop Barron has ever offered

Jesus saves. Thanks Bishop Robert Barron.

Oh, what kind of person would I be now if I had worked on building that moral wall so many years ago. I thank God for waiting for me now as I rebuild that wall, brick by brick. God Bless you Bishop Barron!!

THANK YOU, Bishop Barron, for this sermon w/these observations & reflections from Ezekial 18. In a current culture that subscribes to the notion that "most everything is the fault of society or someone else", GOD tells us that we do have moral PERSONAL choices for which each of us is responsible. May GOD bless you, those you represent, & all other attendees at the Synod in Rome, & open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

The moral choice.Very clearly explained. It affects me, my family and all around me. So blending in isn’t a choice.Thanks Bishop Barron!

Thank you Bishop Barron for this lovely interesting sermon. May GOD bless and protect you always. ➕️ ♥️

Thank you for everything you do, please pray for me to find a spiritual director, I'm feeling lost and confused, sorounded by distractions and a thousand options and I don't know what to do.

Thanks Bishop Barron. You are the water that bring our trees of Faith back to life in God's Love. Your work is the Foreigner Cruisine at the beginning. It takes time to digesst, to like it, to enjoy it, to love it....to be addicted to it. So now...We are Brought back and Submerged into God's Mercy ! Please pray for US !

Knowing Bishop Barron is participating currently in the Synod on Synodality gives me great spiritual confidence and comfort that all will be well with our beloved Holy Mother Church during this time of seeming confusion and error. God bless you, Bishop! Be the voice of Christ for Him, for us, for souls! Little Flower, please pray for Bishop Barron and all at this gathering in Rome! Amen!

Father Steve Grunow asks this from us on behalf of Word on Fire: Please join the Word on Fire team in praying for the Church, our Holy Father, and all those who have been elected or invited to participate in the Synod on Synodality that is taking place in the month of October. In particular, I ask all of you for special prayers for Bishop Barron, who will be attending this synod as an elected delegate. He has been entrusted to represent his brother bishops from the United States and, by extension, the people of God. The work of the synod will be important. Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has stressed how prayer is integral to the synod. This emphasis should strike us as significant because prayer reminds us not only of the Church’s but also our own dependence on God in Christ and instills in us a surrender of our will to him, the purpose of which is to assist us in becoming receptive to what God wants us to see and to do. Rezemos pelo Bispo Robert Barron na Missão de equilíbrio que irá desempenhar neste tão importante e complexo Sínodo.

I stand on my own two feet in the presence of God, me, and God. Amen.

Your family does matter more than you, and I am benefiting from the works of my grandfather.

You never fail to enlighten and deepen my faith. Thank you, Bp. Barron. To God be the glory.❤

I appreciate how Bishop Barron draws out an important idea from this text, that we are judged by our own decisions. It's illuminating to hear him describe how St. Thomas More stood for what he recognized, by faith, was right, even when the world suggested otherwise.

Absolutely correct! We define the person we are becoming by each moral act. We are building up, or tearing down. Man was made in God’s image. Consider yourself a three dimensional image, like a statue. Each wrong choice, each morally negative action, chips a bit away from your statue. Keep living that kind of life, and sooner or later you will have chipped enough away from your own image that it would be difficult or even impossible to recognize God in it. How sad that would be!

I really appreciate that you anchor everything in Scripture. Too many wild opinions in our culture. Thank you.

Powerful sermon Bishop Barron~ thank you for continuing to bless us with these profound insights

Wonderful again! Be safe and well at the Synod. Many praying for you, Bishop Barron, and the others. Peace and love always.

I appreciate so much your focus on the Old Testament, but also more importantly your invitation to “take out our Bibles” (as you often say!😀) and read for ourselves more than just what’s read on a Sunday. Reading the Scripture, the whole Bible, is so liberating and, for me at least, it gives so much more meaning to the Sacraments, especially the Eucharist and Confession. May the Lord continue to bless you Bishop Barron!🙏

Excellent. The perfect homily for the moment I find myself in, with deep gratitude…. perfect timing Bishop!

Note from “The Protestant” - This guy!!!! Could there exist a more exceptional man of God? You Catholics will simply have to share Father B with me. Incredible insight.

A very important message for our World today! Thank you Bishop Barron, for your amazing ability to guide everyone in the right direction. God is with us in every moment we should always be mindful of His Holy presence that way we will be sure to behave and make good moral decisions. Having a close relationship with God and making Him the center of one's life is the only way to live a good and moral life. ✝

I'm pretty sure north Korea still lives by that first proverb, and you can see what terrible conditions it's led to for the people of the country.

Then come blessings and real LOVE and Jobs and heritage

Wow! So much! Thank you, Bishop Barron. 😀❤️

Bishop Barron, thank you for this homily! You do such an excellent job of making the scriptures understandable and relevant to our lives. When we understand the scriptures, we are able to live them out more effectively. God bless you!

Think deeply and truly, and your tree will be fruitful .

Beautiful sermon. What great human beings we have had and have in history, Ezekiel, Saint Thomas Moore, John Paul II and Bishop Robert Barron. This makes me think of the passage in the bible where the rich man who's in hell who begged Abraham to have somebody tell his five brothers of what would await them in hell if they didn't change their ways. Thank you Bishop Robert Barron.

Dear Bishop, we enjoy your sermons. However, we wished that you continue to give us new ones. God Bless you.

I used to have fictional faith arguments with Bishop Barron as an image of the issues I have with my faith not excluding an epic fictional JRE with all my gotcha’s and then I watched his content expecting to collect my imaginary debate points, now I’m closer to Jesus than I have every been and back attending church and praying the rosary daily I humbly thank and apologise to you Bishop Barron. God bless you and keep you.

If we are not ‘cloaked’ in the sins of our fathers why then do we all have the stain of original sin for all of eternity. We suffer from the sin of our parents Adam and Eve. Love Bishop Barron. Your sermons and work deeply touch my life!

And the Sacred words from God for that ever shine in the Hearts of all family

The primary goal of Christianity is the acquisition of the holy spirit of God, but the modern world incentives is mediocrity. Our actions changes who we are. You were born to fight for truth and Justice. Living in the wildest Love with everyone.

Exceptionally thought provoking teaching. Thank you. I praise Almighty God.

Thank you Bishop Barron for guiding us in these difficult and confusing times. God bless you !

Bishop Barron - you are a focal point of morality in this troubled world. Thank you for your words, always.

“If you love Me, keep My commandments. - John 14:15 NKJV

As i learnt is the Best LOVE the Nature of Creation as is not as we want must be

Thank you Father, Amen. I started a painting on Sept 2023, just a few days ago with watercolour, it made me feel the silhouette and many stones places as bricks, I thought that it looks as if it could be laying down in an ancient pavement but no. I could see the importance of every circle around as it constructs together with solemn seriousness and respect. The body is looking down with reverence or nodding, or with a bow towards witch it cannot see. It humbles me to paint without thinking, we need to stand strong and firm, stronger than ever together. Thank you Father. I don't know what act to do anymore, and yet yes, to define my character would be a meditation. Amen 🙏🏼 💐💐💐

God bless Bishop Barron and Word on Fire ministries 🙏❤️✝️

Excellent message, Bishop, and immediately applicable.

God bless you, Bishop Barron, for reminding us of so many importants things every week. The things that really matter. Thank you!

Thank you Bishop Barron 🙏 great sermon ❤

Excellent teaching as always. Thank you 🙏!!! Peace be with you all this happy Sunday 10/1/23 God bless🕊💜🕊

"Let me say that again:..." Yes, please, again, and again! ❤️🌹👑

Thank you, Bishop! God Bless you on your trip to Rome and may He bless your participation in the Synod!

You are a blessing in my life Bishop Barron

God Bless. Thank you, thanks to the Holy Spirit. Dr Robert W Baran

All in all… our moral choices are all just bricks in the wall.

Dear Bishop Barron Thank-you for all these Sermons they have great blessed me with knowledge every single time. All that is left now is Grace to actually put into action these moral decisions. I pray that God Bless & protect you our Shepherd and help you grow in knowledge and holyness.

Thinking of every moral act as a brick in the wall, very helpful in visualizing the body of work.

Your Grace I have stopped sinning all over the place and have stopped physically, mentally and spiritually speaking so I now have more grace. God won't punish me because he loves me and I love him too. I love God and he loves me. Your sermons are just so cool. I really like you. God bless Frances

I think every decision is a moral decision. This wasn't a main point of this Sermon, but from a moral philosophy perspective, it seems more likely that decisions lie on a scale of moral effect instead of some line beyond sandwich choice where decisions suddenly become moral. Also, there are saints who focuses on small actions with great love.

Thank you Bishop Barron. Your sermons are a lifeline for me.

.~❤🫂✨ another wonderful Sermon Brother Bishop! Please keep up the Spiritual Ministry! Hallelujah, amen! ❤🧎❤️‍🔥📖🕊️👍💯💯💯💯

Wonderful sermon Bishop Barron! You have beautifully laid out how moral decision is throughout our daily lives! Thank you.

Thank you Bishop Barron ❤

Thank you! God Bless you Bishop Barron 🙏

Let go and let GOD❤

Dietrich VonHildebrand should be promoted as a Saint, I think. He was German Bishop who sought to teach others exactly what you said about him, Bishop Barron. VonHildebrand sought to show others the supremacy of Good. I am giving myself a homework assignment: to read and learn more about Bishop Dietrich VonHildebrand. God Bless you Bishop.

My favorite thing to learn about of his is Beauty to the second Power

The most essential! You can be very unhappy, but if you are moraly whole or 《wholing》the heart of your heart becomes as the sun that shines on the other side of the clouds; it creates a division of perspectif and the higher one will transform your life in all it's aspects even if a division remains in the heart.. As Ezechiel broke the false tradition baked in the minds of the people, you'll ses everything in a new, far more subtle Light. But as my father told me, knowing more is suffering more. It's subtle and demands perseverance, the drug of Wisdom is 《 freedom》 of social pressure. It is unhealthy for your image, but it is godly for your soul. Ezechiel leads us out of the trap of unhealthy conformity.

Thank you for responding to the Father God's call. Your wisdom and discernment are quite stunning and so helpful. I'm praying hard for you as you prepare for the Synod tomorrow.

I'm just here in the comments to say thanks. Thanks to God for give you the wisdom to predicate the gospel and the way to reach the real meaning of our life. But thank you Robert for have said yes to God and therefore be a blessing for us.

Thank you Bishop Barron! It reminds me of a quote from Spiderman, "It's the choices that make us who we are, and we can always choose to do what's right". God's truly the one who makes us who we are but as you said, our choices define our character and who we become. God Bless!

My friends I see a very interesting dialoque between bishop Robert Barron and pastor Vlad Savchuk - in spirit and truth 😇

Thank you Bishop Barron! All is well that ends well!!

Probably one of his best sermons, fantastic.

Thanks bishop .

Hallelujah praise the Lord

I really enjoyed you sharing actus hominis and actus humanus. I suffer a lot through spiritual oppression and even though I resist I almost always end up in some rant about some random subject that I know very little about and through a personal revelation I had been told that my participation in the evil is mostly just a response to their attack and not of my own free will. So responding to something isn’t the same as participating in something, I like how I can now identify it as either actus hominis or actus humanus. Thank you.

Thank you and God bless you Bishop Barron !❤🙏

Ezk 18, Thank you so much! Be an Angel for others! 😇

Honestly both convicting and a relief to hear.

Thank you Bishop Barron! God Bless you too. 🙏

Brick by brick!

This is an amazing sermon; thank you for sharing your wisdom, insights and integrity with the world. I wish every person on this planet would hear this and pay heed to this vitality important message as it is undeniably true. Dear God, please help me to internalize this message and to make the morally correct choice each time I am faced with such a choice, so that, as Bishop Barron eloquently explains, I will be creating my character to be what You and I both want it to be. I pray the same prayer for each and every person on this planet. May we all make the morally correct choice each and every time we are faced with such a choice, and may we encourage one another to be morally courageous and correct, no matter the opposition we face or how challenging that might be, so that when we each stand on our own before our Lord and Savior on the day of our final judgment, we will each be the person God created us to be, pleasing in our Lord’s eyes, and peacefully content with how we lived our lives.

Thank you for sharing these classic sermons for the next 7 weeks.

Thanks bishop

Every time you make a choice you are turning the central part of you, the part of you that chooses, into something a little different from what it was before...you are slowly turning this central thing either into a heavenly creature or a hellish creature. C S Lewis

And bless you too❤🙏

Stunningly beautiful.

Thank you !!! Always enlightening with the Sermons. God bless you!

What a Blessing❤

Thank you Bishop

Beautiful reflection

Truly humanistic values. Even though I know this quote is from a book somewhere "Your daily ethical decisions are determining who you will become." Bishop❣ Spoke excellently
