My Jesus,
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.

God bless✝️I’m facing surgery Thursday and praying for Jesus to watch over me and guide my surgeon and anesthesiologist ✝️✝️please pray for me
This homily really hit home for me. I’m Polish/Ukranian on moms side and Hebrew on dads side and grew up hearing stories of WW2. Many of our family members on both sides died Jewish and Catholic. It has always been hard for me to accept those who commit severe atrocities receive mercy and not what they deserve. Your Sunday sermon answered my questions to God regarding mercy and justice
This could very well be the most profound homily you've ever delivered. Through God's grace, Divine Mercy, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, you've illuminated for me the depths of this unfathomable mystery. Delving into the trifecta of revelation over the past three days-the profound mysteries of Jesus' Sacred Heart, Mary's Immaculate Heart, and the boundless Divine Mercy of Jesus-reminds me of the incredible richness of our Catholic faith. How truly awesome it is to be part of this profound tradition.

Again thank you Father Mike for such profound Homily. I am asking for prayers for my children to become humble and learn to be merciful. It pains me to see them so judgemental and unforgivable of each other. Thank you for your prayers. Amen,Amen. Hallelujah to you Jesus Christ!!

Better to be a born again Christian. 1 Timothy 2:5 “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;” Luke 1:46-47 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, 47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 1 Corinthians 10:4 “And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.” 1 Samuel 2:2 “There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God. Mark 7:7. “Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.” 2 Timothy 2:15 “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
Thank you Fr Mike 🌟 Happy Feast of Divine Mercy 💐 Living in trust is to praise and thank God in every moment of our life. Sometimes bad things happen in our life to teach us how to look at the good things in a whole new light✨️ "I asked God for strength ...and God gave me difficulties to make me strong I asked for wisdom...and God gave me problems to solve I asked for courage...and God gave me dangers to overcome I asked for love...and God gave me troubled people to help I asked for everything I wanted in life...Instead, he gave me life so I could experience all these moments and know that he is with us in every season and in every moment of our life. "Trust In God"🌻
Thank You, Most Holy Trinity. Thank You Our Queen Mother Mary, St. Joseph, St. Faustina, all angels & saints. Father Mike, thank you so much. You are truly like a father to me. Thanks for helping me realize, as much as I can, the gravity of God's love & mercy. Mercy I don't deserve for my many sins but the mercy I need. Thanks again & prayers🙏
Lamb of God grant us peace 🕊️
Father Mike, thank you for all you do for Jesus, God and us all! May God bless you always!
Beautiful mass. Thank you Father.
WOW Father Mike, this is truly awesome. Your homilies touch my heart in such a way that no one else can. You have a way of explaining the Bible to us that we can understand. The Holy Spirit is definitely with you at Mass. Thank you!

Thank you Father
When you mentioned Rudolf Hess, i held my breath when you said they could not find a priest to come. And I realized. We really expect a lot from each other. Then a great sense of relief when that priest was found. And it occurs to me, yes, we expect a lot from each other, because of this God that we have. We learn by example. Praise be our Lord Jesus Christ.
Thank you Fr Mike for this beautiful Mass 🙏✝️🙏♥️🙏
Thank you for the Mass. I attended morning Mass at my church but wanted to hear the readings and your homily.

That was a deep and powerful homily. Thank you Father Mike
I thoroughly enjoyed this Holy mass. The Homily touched my soul. Thank you Father Mike
Lord help me forgive the ppl that say my testimony isn’t real. I know it’s just lies from the devil. Because he wants me to lose my faith and Lord it’s working. I’m losing faith. Only God knows the burdens I face. I won’t give up but I’m so tired of fighting. I’m a single mom and it is hard to have everything on my shoulders. Especially because both of my sons are special needs but despite the challenges I face. I keep faith in Jesus even as I struggle to pay rent and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. As a christian that’s all I can do. Praise God and thank him because he will provide a blessing is always on the way in Jesus name.

Thank you for the prayers. God bless you all. I was so troubled who told me there is no dignity when a loved one (my dad) is close to death. He is in skilled nursing, and I received two snide remarks from nurses who could not understand the true teaching of the Catholic Church. Because of Jesus’s Divine Mercy, I was able to bear witness about the teachings of the Holy Church. Basically, two caregivers told me that they could not understand why I was crying over my dad. He was worthless in their eyes because he is 96 and has end stage dementia. Through your prayers and God Devine mercy, I was able to receive the mercy to advocate for my dad and tell his hospice team that we view suffering as a gift. God. Bess you all. Sorry for the typos.
We all are in need of God's mercy. Give your life to him, and he will heal all wounds❤🙏✝️🕯️🕊️
Praise the Lord
Thank you so much for the Holy Mass and Homily this Feast day of Divine Mercy, God bless always Father Mike . Kindly include in your prayers my family for we suffering hard cough, thank your prayers Father Mike 🙏❤️🙏

Thanks be to God for Ascension, for Hallo, for Fr. Mike, and most of all for sending Jesus save the whole world. It's strainge as I watched and listened I could smell the smoke they use at mass.
I believe this might or possibly be your best homily ever. By God’s grace and Divine Mercy and through His Holy Spirit you have connected for me this unfathomable mystery. On this trifecta mystery of the last three days of revelation that opens the mystery of the Good news, Jesus’ Sacred Heart, Mary’s Immaculate Heart and Jesus’ Divine Mercy How awesomely good it is to be Catholic.

Side effects from anti-psychotics prevented me from going in person, but here I am!
Such an important reminder about mercy and suffering. Especially in the context of the World War II, Rudolf Höss the head of the A-witz camp, and the horrible things done to children and the people in the camps. The worst time in the human history and yet there were people who hoped and prayed for the best. People still treated Rudolf with kindness due to God's mercy showing in people. The priest who listened to his confession must have been heavy after it. I guess it was a great first step for both- to hear confession of such a sinner and also to be willing to confess all the sins. I guess this tells us that even if someone deserves justice, that person should also be given a chance to confess and pray. Because humans should exercise human laws but also allow God to exercise God's law. The message is great. Choose God and get God. You get what you choose. Loved hearing about Nun St. Maria Fraustina of Poland. Mercy is the love of God we need the most and deserve the least. The greater the sinner, the greater the right to mercy- the power of repentance, baptism and prayer. The chaplet of Devine Mercy is indeed about mercy- Have mercy on us, a sinner. Thank you for recommending Book 33 Days to Merciful Love by Fr. Michael Gaitley -- Praise and love God- that's how to live in trust. Sacrament of confession. three ways of exercising mercy- deed (Giving), word (Speak), and prayer. Thank you so much for your work and homily, Fr. Mike, Pew Crew and Team Ascension. God bless you all and the fellow listeners
I need God’s Mercy
God heals ALL of our wounds, but out of His immeasurable wisdom, mercy. grace and love He might do not heal us the ways that we anticipated.
We must trust God when we can't get to Mass
I praise and thank You for all Your graces and blessings especially now in my pain help me be like you 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Finally. Really soothes my heart to gaze up on wonderful lady Lauren. I missed you.
Some of us can't attend at anything other than the altar of work. True Love is work and Mercy. And that's the Truth! ❤ Thank God!
Jesus, have mercy on us and on the whole world🙏
Beautiful & And healing on Divine Mercy Sunday🙏♥️
I offer up this mass as a testament of trust to our Lord Jesus Christ
Inwas moved to tears by this homily.
Amen,Amen.Thank you
That was a fulminant homily, thank you Father Mike!!! 💚🙏🏼 I am actually going to watch it again because there is so much in it that I need to hear again. Thank you so much! Forgiveness is actually something I struggle with the most and it I think that's true for many, many people. One thing I would like to add from the experience of trauma healing - God does not punish. Ever. The only thing God gives to us is love. So Jesus didn't buy forgiveness or anything, He just showed it and probably even more than that, which we don't yet fully understand. Mercy is probably the thing we don't merit but we somehow still deserve and that is so difficult as mentioned in this homily. But I think forgiveness of sins does not mean erasure of deeds. Maybe it means more something like what might come of this soul if his or her actions were driven by love, not by punishment. God bless us all and thank you so much for this Sunday Mass! 💖

It’s the same as a murder victim’s family forgiving the murderer. He has been forgiven, but must still serve his time. We are forgiven, but must still spend time in purgatory.

Father Mike, I loved your homily. Thank you today for the mass, I am home with 2 sick children and unable to attend my church. I pray for my children, all 4 of them. My oldest 26 just entered the army and I pray for him to be strong and courageous. I pray for my 19 year old living with Autism that he find his way and knows that after I pass that God will be there for him. I pray for my 18 year old that he stop fighting for what God wants for him, that he stops looking in the world to fill his heart and looks to what God has for him. I pray for my 8 year old that he forgive me for being so tired and short tempered and for the anxiety I have given him, I pray he has peace. Please pray for them Thank you and God Bless

I, like watching the mass online on KZread Because it’s very quiet and, I, also like praying in my home : Where I can have a quiet place to Be with God : because he did say , go into a quiet room; we’re no one will see you. To be alone with God .

Please be assured of my prayers for you.🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, Father Mike, I was starting to wonder towards the end of your homily if a priest did come in the end for Rudolf Hess.
I forgive. I feel better pray at home ❤
Lord have mercy🙏
praise the Lord
Whoa, homily was *Amazing*!!! Here's how i digested this: Like it or not, the sacrifice made by Christ is strong enough EVEN 4 HESS. YUP. We kinda have to ... just eat it! But at the same time, if the truism of "Sin is Sin" holds blood, then we ought to be grateful for that strength & depth... as none of us know if any of our sins is really lesser in gravity, to God. ... Gravity is an aspect of mass, while Heaven & it's denizens... are non-corporeal 😂 LOVE THIS & YOU, THIS RAWKED!!! - one Protestant circus peanut in yr peanut gallery!! 😍😄🥰🤪// Viewd via App!!
When we follow Jesus we will be betrayed. Forgive them they know what they do
Wow ! 🙏🙏🙏💕
IMO, we are suppose to trust God and love one another, holy love, of course. People, all, fail at times. God never fails, Jesus proved that with the supreme test to rise out of death. His love does not fail. We just must strive to be obedient, confess our sins, and show mercy to others, to reach the habit unto the life of goodwill!😇
