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.

I am eighty six years old,I am living in an assisted living facility. I have never felt more discouraged, lonely, horrible arthritic pain , need almost99% care. 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.
You are in my thoughts and prayers🙏
🙏 prayers for you! Thanks for asking.
Prayers for you. 🙏
Absolutely. God bless you!
Thank you yes I'm a widow they say " take care of yourself". Great sermon I'll keep giving
A year later and this is exactly what I needed to hear… I went to World Youth Day with a spiritual dryness and left Lisbon with spiritual dryness. The reminder to trust in Him is prominent, so thank you for your amazing work Bishop 🙏
❤ one of the most beautiful and also practical feature of religion is, that it can take the unbearable and unlogical (place with no power) and give it some sense (start to add the power again). Thank you for what you do for people!
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!
“Your being increases in the measure as you give it away. “ what a beautiful idea as we live each day. I offered a man payment for some help he gave me when my car broke down. He simply said we all can do good. Just pay it forward my friend. Modern day reminder of the Bishops great homily!!!
What a wonderful saying.Your measure increases when you give it away..
*"Your being increases in the measure that you give it away."* - BISHOP BARRON
Thank you Bishop Barron. 😊
Many Thanks Merilyn for being here☆ God bless you heaps☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
“Your being increases in the measure that you give it away” Law of the Gift.
@@sallyvlosich9115 Big God Bless for your valuable presence☆
"Your being increases in the measure that you give it away. "BISHOP BARRON🙏
"When you're in your greatest distress, give --- in love --- even the little that you have, and you're going to find that the resources don't dry up. In fact, they multiply." I love this line so much. It encourages me today. Thank you.
Hello how are you doing today
Fantastic
I have king felt this paradox to be true. Now I understand.
Hello fellow Catholics .. has anyone had any apparition from our blessed mother. pls share with me
Thank you for this most encouraging story and the advice. Hust what I needed to hear right now in my 79th year and worried that my resources are dwindling fast. You have given me hope . Thanks and God bless you for sharing this life-giving wisdom 💟🙏✝️
My coworkers and myself are going through a drought right now,our company closed without notice.I pray Lord we all find gainful employment soon.I miss the people I worked with.I hand it all over to you Lord.Amen.
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.
Thankyou Carol for your kind words.I believe that you are someone God has sent me to give me encouragement ,I really feel touched with gratitude.
My grandmother always said, "The only thing you can take with you, is what you've given away."
I've been a Secular Carmelite for 40+ years and I know this story well. This is the first time it moved me to tears. I'll certainly take this to prayer today. Thank You.
Hello
I thought I was just being emotional here🙈. Thank you Bishop Barron
Hello fellow Catholics .. has anyone had any apparition from our blessed mother. pls share with me
@@jacobgray7007 An APPARITION! surely you mean a DELUSION. Perhaps you might want to have a TRUTHFUL conversation, that is one that does not depend on biblical FAIRY TALES.
You have been doing it your whole life!
“Put your trust in the Lord before any man”, Psalm 118.8, the center of the Bible. Thank you for reminding me of this most important way to live my life. I pray to be a sheep and not a goat.
Marvelous!
Bishop Barron, keep cracking that laughter and smiles, it's quite infectious in a positive and delightful way! We love Bishop, keep us soaked in God’s word. God be with you always 🙏
Joy is a gift of the Holy Spirit. Our Bishop Barron is full of joy…which means…he is full of the Holy Spirit. He’s a blessing to us all!
@@juliemarquez92 thank you, yes I agree, bishop is filled with the Holy Spirit, may God continue to bless us through him in Jesus name amen and amen
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.
Thank you Bishop Robert Barron. Once again we are comforted and inspired by your homily. I can now see what the Lord is doing around me ….
Thank you Bishop! Don’t forget to pray for our Bishops everybody! God bless!
Wow. Tremendous, powerful, and practical. Thank you, Lord for guiding me to hear the sermon. Thank you for talking to me. Thank you Jesus.
“ who God sends to you”, Bishop Barron was sent to me. Thank you my Lord, my God.
Hi Annie
Hello fellow Catholics .. has anyone had any apparition from our blessed mother. pls share with me
"God responds, sometimes in mysterious and unexpected ways, when we're in dire need."
He forgot to include the phrase "... that are indistinguishable from random chance ...". Also the use of the word "mysterious" makes a mockery of 1 Corinthians 14:33.
Aaron McNally, Stay blessed as always☆
Here’s an answer, I am here to humble the spirit, I am here to show you a path, I am here to be Jesus and to proclaim Michael Jordan es Cristo.
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.
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.
I have a son going through the same issues as far as work and also with a more minor medical issue. Just know that you can make it through keep pushing never give up hope, trust in Christ seek his will. As an aside I am reading a tremendous book called “He Leadeth Me “ I recommend you read it’s inspiring and can help make you find purpose during these tough times your going through. God bless you and all in similar situations.
Bishop Barron, you will always remain one of God's BEST Storytellers and it seems that he has picked you to tell all his BEST Stories to his children in Faith☆
very true ,
I agree stories are all he has nothing like real-life just the stories
@@chrisyoung5929 Any idea whose story he just told? It's seven hours (2.30 am IST, 8th Nov.) since he spoke and a whopping 60,000 cared to listen already. Don't miss those that telling things about Bishop's story right here with you in the Comments section. Do look up. *You seem to be saying that you are among the few handfuls with real life and a BRAIN.*
@@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.
@@chrisyoung5929 I only compared you. You are merely confirming your incompetence, even your dullness.
Od srca hvala! Lijepo Vas je slušati i iskusiti kako Bog proviđa kad imamo u njega vjere i povjerenja. ❤🙏
Bishop Barron this is the second time today you have spoken just the right thing for me. I spent the afternoon preparing. Now I am giving. Thank you.
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!
The more you share what God give you the more you received trusting in the Lord
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.
Thumbs down because people see good words and good sermons and no help at parish level or study group level.
O Lord, may we have the heart to listen.. O Lord, may we trust in You to leave our ‘comfort zone’ so that You may be glorified 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Thank You I went to mass , and I left thinking I did not understand. You always explain the Gospel so well! You are a gift from God! We are called to be generous with our time, finances, Love.
Hello fellow Catholics .. has anyone had any apparition from our blessed mother. pls share with me
Thank you, Bishop Barron. Never has this been more timely for so many.
👍 Being angry, disappointed ...it wears you down... I'm trying...really trying.
Let us pray for the 6 people who gave truth a thumbs down. Bishop Barron keep up the good work.
@Dillon Leaf out of 68k views, it's not shabby. Some folks would give their mother a 👎. For these we pray.
Thank you 🙏🏻 Bishop Barrón . God send you this morning to speak to me . I was crying when I open my phone and you pop up . God bless you 🙏🏻
God Bless you Bishop, thank you.
Thank you Bishop for this beautiful video. May God Bless You Bishop.
I believe in the multiplying of the food... God is merciful! ❤
Please pray for me. I not generous. My God forgive me and give me grace to love others. Amen.
God is revealing the supernatural laws that can be made operational in this world of ours for our advantage. For this we need to trust in Gods Word
Glory be to God .amen
My parish priest recommended I listen to bishop Barron & I can’t get enough of his wisdom & the way he explains things. Bishop Barron thank you
Thank you, Thank you , THANK YOU 🙏
Thank you dear. Bishop Barron for you teachings and the Rosary. 🥰🙏🏻🕊🌹
Thank you father Barron. Jesus I trust in you, Jesus I trust in you, Jesus I trust in you .🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️
The miracle of the loaves and fishes. Bounty comes, not because of our logic, but from the hand of God.
What! We are getting an Old Testament gem that's usually talked about in retreats. Nice
I have proved this my whole life. I am 81 this year,
Thank you dear bishop Barron. God bless you.
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. Hasn’t sent me anyone. I keep hearing about all these miracles. I have never seen one. I don’t know anyone who has seen one. I don’t know anyone who knows anyone whose seen one.
Wow what an incredible message from Bishop Barron! Just exactly what I need it to hear during these forty days of Lent. I need to break my habits of dependency, I have to look for the water of the Divine Grace and I won’t thirst again. Thanks BB for a great homily. Message sent from Guatemala 🇬🇹
Connection to God equals Life! Trust, in the Right Power proves True, God. God is sending Catholic Priests from India as our Vice President is India blood tribe.
Having faith in God is knowing that He will always be with you no matter how thick or thin 💖💖💖
Thank you Bishop. The Lord has spoken to me through you. I thank you. God Bless You ✝️✝️🙏🏼🙏🏼
When you are going through the worst drought in your life trust in God trust in his Providence. Thank you Bishop Baron I needed to hear that today pray for me and my family please
Hello fellow Catholics .. has anyone had any apparition from our blessed mother. pls share with me
10:20. “Your being increases in the measure that you give it away”
Peace be with you. Amen.
God has a serious sense of humor.
I needed to hear this. Praise the Lord.
Let's FEAST on LOVE ❤️ and Fast on Evil. "Love One Another As I Have Loved You" Jn13:34. Let's DO the Right ✅️ thing even when no one is watching.
God bless you and love you.❤
❤️🙏 Beautiful. Thank you. ❤️🙏
An old Arabic saying, "What you give you keep, what you keep you lose forever." Wonderful sermon, Bishop Robert! Taken in deep.
We really need to trusted in our lord lord..
Best storyteller in the business !!
Thank You Lord for Bishop Robert Barron’s podcast which reminds me of “Luke 6: 36-38” which I write in memo section of personal checks. Praise God! ✝️🕊❤️🤗🙏🏻
☦️🙇♂🙏Godbless Father AmeN🙏🙇♂☦️
My family and I are going to live in a desert state to give our kids a better quality of life and hopefully a solid Christian community which we don’t have where we currently are. This meditation is very helpful.
Ihave personaly thanks about you my passion increase suchas seen all God bless you Bishop sahib.
Much love all xxx
Thank you so much Bishop Robert Barron.
What a sensitive unpicking of that Elijah story! Thank you.
Dear Bishop Barron, this message is meant for me today. Thank you for being an instrument of God. The law of the gift is what we need to remember always. Everything is for a reason; not our reasons but God's. Thank you.
Thank you Bishop Barron!
Thank you ...thank you, Bishop.
Praise God who gives us our daily bread, even in a famine!!! Give and it will be given to you in FULL MEASURE!
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"
"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.
Be consumed by God's love.
God bless all of you and your families and I pray that God watches over you and you know that your loved by the lord God so always remember to trust in the lord no matter what even if your believes are tested and have a blessed day in Jesus name Amen 🙏
'Your being increases in the measure you give away' - Thank you BB!
Your being increases in the measure that you give it away. I am blessed.
Yes, everything has dried up and in turmoil.
Thank God for your Gospel 🙏
I am single no wife or children something made me to listen to you this morning yes I lost everything but there have been people that been helping me and I gave the only position that I have was my father watch to my cousin it's so funny that this surmont reflects on me this Sunday
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.
What a Blessing you are Bishop Barron, may our Lord continue to speak to us through you! God bless you and your ministry!!🙏🏻
Dear Bishop Robert Barron - I am literally being sent to a foreign country to drink from a dried up wadi! I am half way there and have already suffered many ills on the way and really did not want to continue. I am not sure I will be fed by ravens but I am already meeting people on the way who have been a great help to me. Your message today is as timely as ever and has given me the courage to go on. May God bless you richly in your vocation.
Thank you Bishop Robert Barron on preaching this sermon.
Thank you. God will provide!
Beautiful, “ the Law of the Gift” explained in words to live by. Amen🙏🏽
I find Bishop Barron exceptionally gifted ad a preacher. No idle moment when I listen to him. I get glued. May the Lord continue to bless him in his work of sharing Gods words.

Powerful sermon 🌹Thanks So Much! And I love your interpretation of the readings. Mel Brooks for sure🤣😂🤣😂God bless you. You have Truly been Sent😉😉 Blessings 😌
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. God wants us to move in total faith, its when we believe and move in faith that miracles and wonders happen, increasing our faith in him.
And also with you Bishop Baron, Peace be with you
Thanks Bishop Baron 🙏 😊.
The literal level of this story is hard for me to relate to, like so much in the Bible. But the way Bishop Barron breaks it down, does help a little, a little. I'm worried about the eighty-six year-old below, "living in an assisted living facility." And there are those who may not be so lucky...
Praise The Lord! It's much better to give than to receive. JEHOVAH JARIAH LORD I TRUST IN YOUR WORDS
Foreshadowing the Eucharist.🍃
And so, my tortuously slow Damascene conversion continues. I'm not quite there, yet. But BB's sermons help a lot.
If your conversion seems slow, it may be better to think of it as a 'road to Emmaus' thing rather than a 'road to Damascus' thing. It's all in Luke 24, and has helped me a lot in my own journey.
@@Hellyers thanks, friend. I'll seek it out.
I can’t do much for you (in comparison to Bishop Barren knowledge regarding the scriptures), but I can recommend reading Mere Christianity when you get the time (I recall BB praising that book in another video). That one helped me understand the finer details of the Christian life. Other than that, I can promise to pray that God makes your road to Him clear; God be with you.
Dear building better world's pray to the holy spirit to enlighten and open your spiritual eyes and soften your heart. I pray the holy spirit will lead you into all truth.
@@precisi0n86 niggling doubts, having been immersed secular rationalism my whole life.
Praying🙏🙏
EXACTLY what I needed to hear right now. Praise the LORD! And thank you Bishop Barron!
Thank You Bishop. Love is the First Gift from the Father, and our ability to share it with others is the second.
My God! ... a saving grace this morning. thank you !!!
Thank Bishop Barron and, May God Bless you always 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
