Thoughts of Peace: On Trust & Patience

About this sermon

“I think thoughts of peace and not of affliction.” On the 23rd Sunday after Pentecost, this powerful traditional Catholic homily reflects on the consoling words of the Introit and the deep peace Christ desires for every soul—even in the midst of confusion, trials, temptations, and daily human weaknesses. Father reminds us that Christ looks upon us with patience, mercy, and tenderness, even when we fall, even when our pride gets wounded, and even when we struggle with our passions. Through the lens of Scripture—especially the healing of the woman suffering for twelve years in Matthew 9—we are reminded that Jesus invites us not only to “touch His garment,” but to receive Him truly in the Holy Eucharist, where healing, strength, and peace overflow. This sermon offers encouragement for: • Those discouraged by personal faults • Religious and laypeople striving for virtue • Families struggling with spiritual wounds • Anyone seeking peace in chaotic times • Catholics devoted to the Traditional Latin Mass Christ tells every soul: “I think thoughts of peace… be at peace. I have overcome the world.” ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Opening invocation 00:13 – Introduction to the 23rd Sunday After Pentecost 00:23 – “Thoughts of peace, not affliction” 00:36 – Confusion and discouragement in modern times 00:47 – How daily frustrations and pride disturb our peace 01:11 – Facing weakness and setbacks in spiritual life 02:00 – How Christ receives us despite our struggles 02:26 – Encouragement from the Introit 03:00 – Seminary story on rooting for both teams 04:02 – Small moments of pride in daily life 04:40 – St. Paul on resisting grace and earthly thinking 05:01 – Christ reforming our lowly bodies 05:22 – Importance of patience and heavenly focus 05:41 – Christ’s love & presence in the tabernacle 06:10 – Healing of the woman with the hemorrhage (Matthew 9) 06:35 – The power of Holy Communion 06:49 – Praying for healing: personal, family, community 07:19 – Christ’s final message: “Be at peace—I have conquered the world.” For more please visit http://reginaecclesiae.com & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
