Hearing scripture alone is very powerful. Without so much added to it. Very refreshing

I want to testify to something that just happened while my daughter and I were about half way through listening, enthralled by this magnificent sermon, she was holding a cup and the handle simply fell off spilling the remains of it's contents all over her! I stopped the video to see what had happened and we were astonished by it. What are the chances of such a thing happening randomly? I told her, "That, my daughter, is the evil one trying to interfere with us hearing God's word to us ALL. You can be assured you are hearing and doing the correct thing, when something like this occurs. The evil one and his minions will do whatever they can to distract us and subvert our attentions from goodness. Please remember this for discernment in the future." I may be wrong, but my soul says otherwise.

The Beatitudes Focus On: Humility - Meekness - Right Relationships - Mercy - Purity of Heart & Peacemaking which are all Positive Qualities. But Jesus Includes the Possibility of Persecution For Righteousness Sake. We As Christians Must Keep These Beatitudes Into Our Hearts & Minds and Apply Them Into Our Lives And Let Your Light Shine And Energize Our Hungry Church To Seek The Truth Which Sets Us Free. Read The Bible Every Day Especially Keeping In Mind The Parables Of Our Lord Jesus Christ And The Acts Of The Apostles And Pray For The Catholic Church & The U.S.A.
Thank You Rev. Mike O'Connor For Your Excellent Homily...

Wow! Another brilliant enlightened inspired sermon by Father Michael O'Connor from the Gulf of Mexico in Mississipi USA. As a cradle Catholic now in my 76th year i have never heard any sermons like this. That has made such a deep connection with me. I am so blessed by the Father His son Jesus and the Holy Spirit to have heard this powerful sermon. The words of the New Testament that i have heard before in a truncated version of small disjointed disconnected snippets. Now i have heard it whole i have been made whole. Deo gratias. With gratitude from the other side of the world. Downunder. Australia. 🇦🇺
