Trust in the Lord - Bishop Barron’s Sunday Sermon
Friends, a connection with God leads to life and flourishing. When we sever that connection, we experience a drought similar to the one in our first reading today. The Lord responds to our needs, so trust in his providence, and he will not abandon you.

Your message today is giving me encouragement. I have no idea why I am still alive. I remember the phrase…when all else fails, trust in God. Please pray for me!!!🙏

God has a purpose and here I am to tell you to repent and accept only Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Believe in what He died in the cross for our sins and on the 3rd day He rose from the dead and now is seated at the right hand of God.

What a wonderful saying.Your measure increases when you give it away..
Bishop Barron, you have a true gift. You let God speak through you and tell a story we have heard for years, you tell it in a way that it actually makes sense to “our own” life and to trust being thrown out of comfort zone. Thank you for all the years of inspiration and guidance. It’s because of you I am back!

God bless you. I had somewhat of the same experience. A few years back, our company closed down. Some of us were wondering how we could find a job with good benefits and pay like the one we had? But a door opened, and so the pieces of the puzzle were gradually put back together. Good luck to you. With God's grace believe in yourself and remember what Bishop Barron spoke about trusting in God and watching for the people he sends your way to help. You will not be disappointed.

I am amazed at the few who rate these spectacular sermons as "thumbs down". Regardless of one's race, creed, color, religion, etc. I cannot understand how Bishop's messages can be received as anything but highly educational and uplifting. We should all raise these troubled, misdirected or lost souls in prayer in hopes that they will see clearly in the future. Thank you Bishop Barron for yet another tremendously edifying and inspirational sermon. I eagerly await next Sunday's installment!

I haven't rated down the Bishop's video and I don't know if my impression of it is in the least bit representative of those that did, but I can't say I find it uplifting. I am just bemused by the way in which it is accepted or recounted as true when tales or examples of it are selectively chosen from a wealth of other cases where it would seem not to be. Not that I would deny the potential value of sharing with others in times of need (or plenty for that matter), but a tenfold, hundredfold material or spiritual return associated with a god is too mysterious a claim for me to accept on trust or say so.

@@marypinakat8594 And a Marvel superhero movie gets 60 million views in a weekend does that make superhero movies true in any way? A few hundred people turned up in Dallas expecting that JFK jr would come back from the dead a couple of days ago. If 60, 000 had turned up would that have made it more likely to happen? Is Noah's flood true because the Bible says so or a made-up story because we have the Geology, Physics, zoology, Genetics, Chemistry, and history that all show it was just a story that did not happen? A story is a story unless you can show it is true. If we just accept stories as true because we want them to be then we are set up to be conned all our lives. Evidence that any of the Bishop's stories is true is what I am asking for.

Needed this. I am epileptic and suffered a seizure this morning. On top of that i have been unemployed for 7 months struggling to find work i can live on. In that time, i started going to Mass and converted to Catholism. I have met good people and a friend who i now live with. I do wish that i knew God's plan for me. Wish that i could get a job and not be so reliant on others. Many people have and are praying for me about the job and nothing. I just don't understand it.

Your being increases in the measures that you give it away.” Even St Francis said it’s better to give than to receive. I believe with all my heart and soul.
Hi. I'm a grad student from Brazil. This video has helped me countless times throughout the months. Most recently, I've been dealing with a heartbreak due to "the one" ending things rather suddenly. Anyway, it's comforting to think God might have a greater purpose for my life and also hers. A big part of the pain comes from the realisation that I haven't been a good judge of character, and so unpleasant things keep happening. God help us all and save us from our ignorance.
"The Lord be with you, may He make His face shine upon you". Pray for His perfect will to be done in your life. Unite in prayer your suffering with Christ's for the conversion of sinners and/or the poor souls in Purgatory.

I have no idea what God wants me to do or what his project is. Praying my whole life and I don’t hear a thing. I had a miserable career, family members afflicted with disease, and unending disasters.

Nice. Just like what we just learned in our Bible study this week, that this trust is the mark of the spiritually mature who through repeated trainings, like an athlete in training, finds that God is worthy of our trust. Hebrews 5: 14: "But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil"

I believe in the multiplying of the food... God is merciful! ❤
In times of need, we have an option to rely on our own wit, our resources, our influence, friends and family. "Well, I have a college degree, got my savings as backup, my family as my safety net." To forego our instincts, but instead go to the Holy Spirit and submitting to His will first... sigh, so hard to do. Asking, "Lord, what is your plan for me?" When you/I believe that we already got a plan (an even better one that God's (yikes!) ). To humble ourselves before God and to first consult in life decisions that we make, in the end will lead to prosperity -- if not the life here on earth, definitely in eternal life. Mother Teresa's life is that blue print. She may not have had the personal riches of the earthly life, but if there is a heaven, she's certainly there. It's amazing how she humbled herself and turned to God to lead the way. Easier said that done. Only with the help of the Holy Spirit that I/we can surrender our lives to God. God Bless you, Bishop.
EXACTLY what I needed to hear right now. Praise the LORD! And thank you Bishop Barron!
We thanks God that this great lesson you taught us today in this great story of old testament in your homily your being increases in the measure as you give away which St John Paul called it as you said the gift of law.This law applies very much in our time of scarcity in particular today's context. Once agine I thank your Lordship as psalm said my mouth shall speak words of wisdom which you teach us in every homily you make. God bless you.

i love how Gods commmand seems so counter intuative to our thinking. It dosent make sense to our minds to ask a widow in poverty for provision when she can barely survive herself.

Thank you dear bishop Barron. God bless you.
This man is amazing... True story - I just finished watching a video where the host was answering questions. Many of the questions centered around saying they are tired of "holding the line" and that they are thinking about giving in because they want something to happen according to when "they" want it. I responded "are you courage or are you simply grey matter?" And " are you sentient beings or sheep"? But then, rather than doing my normal fury; I wrote "trust in the Lord with all your heart, do not really upon your own understandings." We are not in our time, we are in the Lord's time. I suggested they go deep within themselves to hear his voice. That was all I could do; then I was led here. When we/I listen to God, this is what he does for us/me; another piece in my puzzle 🙏
Thank you ...thank you, Bishop.
Much love all xxx
