God moved me half way across the country to find my loving wife! We are alike in so many ways, Jesus kept telling me “Come see me” and I knew this was Eucharistic adoration and so I did. Guess who I met there? My future wife. God is good, but we must listen to him!! Adoration is so important and if we spend time with God, amend our lives, confess our sins, He will answer in powerful ways!! Do not lose hope, your spouse is out there!! Believe in Gods mercy and put Him first and he will lead the way to your spouse.

@@CameronRiecker Is hard to say, we met online so we spent over 3 years discovering about one another and also more about what catholicism means. We never called it dating even though we were in love. Maybe suprisingly, I would be the LAST person to tell someone to go date person of other religion or an atheist. I have prayed about the decision to give myself to him for years, knowing I would have to accept him as he was. In the same time I saw he was getting closer to God month by month which gave me hope. Also, time to time I got small personal reassurances from God during this journey. I must say when we got in touch, neither of us did it with romantic interest at first.
4:15 "God, I want what You want more than what I want..." Beautiful. Perfect. "Thy Will, not mine, be done." Prayers are answered in marvelous ways when we give everything to GOD. 🔥

@@glennherron9499 I don't know what you mean about no one in the New Testament being saved, but the Catholic Church's teaching is a bit more nuanced than you allege. While there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church, some people will find, to their surprise, that they WERE Catholics all along. Here's how it works: (1) In the case of people adhering to a heretical or schismatic sect, their baptisms are valid (and some other sacraments, in certain cases), so they are members of the Catholic Church. They may hold incorrect beliefs, but if they hold them through unconquerable ignorance, they are excused. (2) In the case of unbaptized persons, that is, infidels or pagans, there may be cases of baptism of desire. That is, the person receives the sanctifying grace of baptism directly from God. If someone has told you something else, then that person is mistaken. I attended Catholic schools K-12 and also studied theology and philosophy for two years at the university level. I feel that I am reasonably well-informed about these matters.

Finding your spouse is only the beginning. Staying married for a lifetime, as one flesh, united with Christ is the challenge because there will be struggles that, as a young person, you can't yet know what your future holds. You may have it together while you're young with two good, well-paying jobs, perfect health, no debt, a nice home, happy, healthy children...but there will come a time when Christ begins pruning so that you will bear fruit and that's when it gets hard. I don't mean to sound like a downer, but the fact is that for most people, we face years and years of struggle and uncertainty. But if we're taking that journey with our loving spouses, walking hand in hand with Christ, it's all worth it. I really commend the people that are earnestly seeking marriage. I pray for all of them that if that is the vocation Christ has for you, that you will find your mate.

Hello. I really agree with what you said. I've been married to the man God planned for me for almost 15 years. We agreed as soon as we began to date that we wanted to marry and raise the children God would send to us. It didn't kill the romance and those 15 years weren't always easy. But they're the best years of my life (even if I cherish my childhood). Your advice is good. Obviously, there are some exceptions but if you're a single Catholic out there and God calls you to marriage: pray, pray, pray and visit the good places!

@@CameronRiecker I’m headed to Mexico over the summer to beat the heat! Thank you for sharing the Latin Mass Finder, I’ll be sure to check out St. Edward for their Spanish Mass. It is unfortunate Mater Misericordiae doesn’t have a Mass in Spanish as that one is closer for me. I grew up going to Mass in Spanish with my family and it feels off going to Mass in English. I recently connected with my Catholic Faith again and I have been attending St. Vincent De Paul on 51st Ave and Osborn Rd (the church my family attends). However, like you mentioned in your video, the importance of going to a good liturgy. I don’t know how to tell if my current church has a good liturgy or not which is why I’m open to exploring and visiting other churches. My journey took a meaningful turn when I discovered a Christian blog called Simple Men, tailored specifically for developing Masculine Christian Men. simplemen.substack.com/ After reading Christian Vitality: Reclaiming Masculine Faith, it reignited my inner fire and helped me reconcile my ambition with Christian principles. I’m looking for a church that can align with this as well. It showed me that striving for personal growth-physically, spiritually, mentally, financially, and socially-is indeed compatible with Christianity. I am dedicated to growing in my faith and becoming a strong, courageous, and successful Christian man who remains true to the path of sanctity and salvation in Jesus Christ. I’ll be joining your Daily Rosary for Men Community to support my goal becoming a better man to better protect, provide for, and lead my future family. Reading the Bible has always been a challenge for me, but the Simple Men blog has significantly improved my understanding of scripture. I would greatly appreciate any specific Bible recommendations that include commentary and annotations to guide me in my reading and enhance my faith journey?

Even though we pray to marry another Catholic and we meet one, one of them could be lukewarm in the faith, still go to mass but doesn’t fully believe in the Lord’s teaching, etc. This can be so painful bc immediately the thought of “Another Catholic woohoo” but really it’s not just about finding another Catholic to marry when he may be living in the world/has influences that are un-Godly let alone non-Catholic.

Eastern Catholicism secures children in the Sacraments from infancy. It's a point that the TLM/West is seriously lacking in. There's also a recognizable absence of warmth and affection in men toward women even between spouses who are attending the TLM and even if the men are helping with the children. There's a culturally-reinforced coldness.

As a former Catholic I’m praying for you to come out of traditions of men and the doctrine of the devil 1Timothy 1:3-4. All denominations is unbiblical and not of the Lord. No where does the Bible tell us to pray to Mary or use the rosary this is added by the denomination. Revelation 22:18-19 is clear. 1 Timothy 4:1. Find a church that teaches straight from the Bible.

I need more time to succeed. I need future generations to know the atheist logical fallacy. Am I asking much or too much? I don't want the greatest knowledge to be lost because nobody or almost nobody cares about the knowledge that saves most lives. I am talking about psychology and a different understanding of reality. The truth, is not the truth what you want?, is not the truth what you say you want?, the divine truth is atheism is a logical fallacy that assumes God is the religious idea of the creator of the creation to conclude wrongly no creator exists because a particular idea of God doesn’t exist. God is necessary and Spinoza was right, reality is eternal and created the universe from self. All is the same substance transforming. I need time to explain Spinoza's God. Humanity don't want to learn and censor the knowledge that saves their own children's lives. What are future generations going to think about how I was treated? I am mistreated like Spinoza was mistreated. History repeats self with the same protagonists trying to do the same for God's sake. Spinoza and I tried to end atheism and religion and we are censored. Spinoza is me. Regardless of when the universe was created God existed always before. I am talking about logic. Either the universe is eternal or what created the universe is eternal. You choose and your life is forever, like Spinoza's life. I am tired and I need to rest. Thank you.
