St Catherine of Sienna, pray for us !

Wow...how very touching- " we are not made of this world, we are made for heaven-for God"

I love the topic in Heaven. We don’t talk about it enough. Thanks for making the video.

Lord only you know the burdens I face give me strength to get through this Christmas. I am a single mom and it can be hard to have everything on your shoulders and receive very little support. Both of my sons are autistic they require so much from me. God help me because I’m struggling to provide for them. I keep faith even as I struggle to pay rent every month and as I struggle to buy groceries. I’m fearful of losing my home. My health is also fading due to heart disease and lupus. Please help me Jesus. Please help me to find strength when I am weak, hope when I am struggling, and peace in the midst of chaos. 😢❤

Pray the Holy Face Chaplet, Eternal Father I offer you the Holy Face of Jesus covered with dust and spittle blood sweat and tears bruised and shamed in reparation for the sins of Blasphemy against thy Holy name and profanation of Sunday's and Holy Days of obligation to combat Communism and Atheism and for the triumph of your Holy Church. Within weeks of praying the Chaplet 3 huge miracles in my Adult children's lives. Look it up, "Prayers for the settlement of all our needs" one of the promises that nothing whatsoever will be refused us who come before the throne of God. Many of us struggle everyday and we know how it feels, everytime we print our circumstances we are reinforcing them physically, I don't know if you are aware of this but it is very important to not keep writing your vulnerabilities, the enemy prowls the earth looking for vulnerable souls to attack. By your Baptism you have authority to bind and cast to the foot of the cross in Jesus name, the Spirit of FEAR, of Doubt, of Anxiety. Oh most Sacred Heart of Jesus I offer you through the Sorrowful Immaculate heart of Mary all my prayers works joys and sufferings of this day. (Let no pain be wasted, God can use it all for good. I know you probably don't want to hear that but it is something. In the Bible we are told to knock at the door, to persist in prayer asking God in Jesus name and to act as if we have already received, that is what Faith is. Tiffany sweetheart, I wish I could hug you, all I know is the more we pray, the more graces come to us. I pray the St Gertrude prayer between each decade of the Holy Rosary to release 1,000 souls from purgatory if prayed reverantly. These souls are so grateful they will pray for you if asked. That's 5,000 souls to pray for your needs every 5 decades. I know we need all the help we can get so it's time to build Army's of prayer Warriors. It is good to ask for prayers, people have no idea what a gift it is to have others pray for you. It's also a blessing to thank others when they do this for us. Gratitude is Key to unlocking many heavenly graces.I hope I haven't offended you with anything I have said, because truly that is not my intention. Godbless you and protect you and your family. Holy Love and prayers❤🙏🙏🙏💕💖

So many good things to meditate upon today! Thank you, and St. Catherine too looking forward to Thursday’s thoughts!

Oh my goodness Ken. I am so glad I watched this video. "Your gift" as you know it will be such with God. Oh my...

Ken I think I will show this to my children. I have difficulty explaining God’s Love and Mercy, the fires of hell, and the joys of heaven. Thank you for this.

Thank you for this video. I teally appreciate the analogy of the fish So very true Yes, i agree with what St Katherine says what heaven is Makes good sense

I wish that she would make a video of singing and then having videos while she's singing showing your beautiful family just like you do at the end of these but more and singing these songs absolutely would love that❤

This was sobering… but hopeful. Thank you. I’m grateful to have heard this. 🙏

I liked the analogies you used........they really helped in understanding the concepts you were describing. Thank you so much for helping us to truly understand our Catholic faith. 🙏

Tears as you shared your sons loving goodnight to you "Thanks dad for being a good dad" You are so blessed ❤❤❤

Very beautiful video and sharing! Thank you! May we give our Lord everything now and love Him more and more by His grace! God bless, Fiat.

Thank you so much🙏 I pray that my faithfulness to Lord will grow more deeper so I can experience to beauty of heaven when the times comes 🙏

I love your analogy of the fish bowl

Thank you Ken great video wow need to think about this, need to grow now more in virtues and love for God 🙏

Wow thank you so much. I loved everything you said but it touched me most what you said about our experience of heaven is dependant on the now and what we do in this life.❤

Cant wait until thursday!!!! I will be watching this again to make sure i did not miss anything!!! Thanks Ken!!!!

This gives great clarity to a subject that has always been a bit unclear. I look forward to part 2.

I would love it if you and Janelle would do a series on the virtues(and their opposing vices) and how to develop them. And just a thought, do it as a Study Series that could be downloaded or available on DVD(our parish wifi connection isn’t great). I love your short daily reflections but something that digs a little deeper would be fantastic for group study…just planting a seed! 😉

Aquinas points out that God doesn't love all creatures equally. It's grace that perfects us - but God doesn't give the same amount of grace to everyone. And it's impossible to get ahead of grace because we would be the source our own goodness! Catherine of Siena got a lot more grace than I did. And the Virgin Mary got more than anyone. Next in line were John the Baptist, born though not conceived without original sin. ("Greater man has not been born of woman") Or possibly St. Joseph.

This is so good Ken! It only makes sense to me that heaven will have some of the same order as here on earth, only perfectly ordered. I've often shared with others that I would never believe that I'd be shoulder to shoulder, so to speak, with some of the great Saints. That's ok, because as God's Word says, the mansion in heaven has many rooms, and I'd be ok with the basement or even a closet.😉 I really like your examples because it makes it relatable. Most cringe worthy to me is when others like to talk about their deceased loved ones being in heaven doing their favorite hobbies there. 😕 The pleasure will be immense in a way we can't imagine. It will be so immense that the things that give us pleasure here such as hobbies won't Matter. The degree of Love experienced will be beyond our comprehension. You are soooo right! No Time To Waste. Better get going. Thank Janelle for her lovely voice for our God pleasure🙌 Love to you and the family. 🙏🙌🙏💕💞💝

So glad I decided to listen to this as I never knew

Thank you so much Ken . Love the analogy...God bless you @family❤

So hopeful Ken! Looking forward to next one❣️

Thank you Ken I now understand why I keep praying at different times, like at Mass during the Consecration or during Adoration I pray a pray of desire to love Jesus more. Salve Maria, Viva Cristo Rey and God bless. Looking forward to part 2 🙏🙏

oh boy my favorite saint 💐🌤💒

This was very well done - I love the fish bowl analogy!

God loves us all uniquely.

Amen, it’s a gift to Love our Savior, I p’ray we all can love Him more, so to gaze on Him in heaven.

Thank you Ken.

Thank you

Heaven is gorgeous 🥰😍

🙏🙏🙏.Thank you Ken

God ĺove us Beyond our😂understanding love Him Unconditionally and experience His Mercy 🙏🏻❤️😇

Jesus it's hard to rejoice my heart is so heavy because of the situation of my son...I pray for a miraculous deliverance from a wrong relationship

Love this!!

My favorite comparison of life on Heaven and Earth is a child in a womb. That child is alive and growing and feels safe and warm, but it is aware of the outside world only in the measure of what one can see or hear in the present moment. It cannot even imagine what is going on in the outside world untill it comes out. And just because it cannot see or feel anything, that doesn't mean that nothing exist outside of womb. The point of Heaven expirience level really knocked me out! Thank you!

I love Janelle singing voice

🙏🙏

Cool, advanced Very Merry Christmas & a Very New Year. God bless, Rev. 21:4

St. Catherine of Siena please pray to God For my family to win all our court cases and also pray for our good health and thank God for blessing us mightily. Please thank Him for us. For Jesus sacrificing so much for our salvation. Jesus we love you. Pray for us my dear st. Catherine my namesake that I may get closer to God as He created me to be. Amen 🙏🏾

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

GOD will speak to you if you call unto HIM HE will answer you. HE said so and there is no lie in HIM.

Saint Catherine's vision of the tree of life perfectly matches the Prophet Lehi's vision of the tree of life as found in the Book of Mormon.

Clean up the comments section brother... Keep up the great work.

Will we have a personal relationship in heaven where we can be in communion with God as intimately as is us receiving him on earth?

From what book did you take the citations of Catherine of Sienna? Thank you and God bless!

Thinking of the logic but not literal. There is more to the love of God than what we know or what we think we know. We build our own boundaries by seeking answers but without open hearts "fish bowl".

Great content, you speak with a ‘whisper tone’ that sounds too much like a parody of those ‘late night’ inspirational messages. Can you use your regular speaking voice rather than a ‘breathy tone’? It weakens the value of the message.

I get what you're saying, but I think he speaks like that. His eyes match the tone. He probably does these videos late at night. He is likely tired. Maybe he needs some vitamins and minerals. His wife too looks tired. Large family is a very big responsibility and it can be very tiring. 🤔They do great work though. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

That fish would still go round and round because it is conditioned to do so.

i see satellites

Try and find a verse that states ANYONE is going to heaven after they die, you won't find even one verse as that is NOT what happens.. You've been lied to by those wearing black robes and sporting upside down crosses..

Why do you guys make this stuff up. It's so wrong to mislead people.
