My grandmother prayed the Rosary everyday. She suffered with being widow in poverty and with continuous physical illnesses for for forty years and then had a terrible death, essentially starved to death in the hospital but she always remained docile and loving always praying for others up until the last moment. When she was passing she saw the Blessed Mother and her human mother who died when she was a child… the last thing she said to my Aunt was, “it’s so beautiful I wish you could see!”.
She’s in Heaven with the Blessed Mother now. What a beautiful person your grandmother was. Life can sometimes seem so sad, but a woman like your grandmother offered her pain to God.
Wow! What a talk. As a convert to Catholicism “the Mary stuff” was difficult for me at the beginning. Your channel helped me understand the truth of our most holy mother. I now pray the rosary and wear her medallion.
I agree. In my later years I came back to my baptized faith. I never understood Mary BUT THE HOLY SPIRIT OPENED MY EYES. It was a flood of knowledge after that. Bible study after bible study about Mary flooded my life. It all maid sense. It makes good reasonable sense and good philosophical sense that Mary is exactly who she is.
@@SoyebAkhtar151 and Jesus said in John 14:6 “I am the way, the Truth and the Life. No-one comes to the Father except through me.” Our Lady is not an idol; we don’t worship her. Rather we revere her as the first among saints.
Gaby, Our Lady keeps leading me in my prayers and every time she does, you drop a video to clarify what she was telling me. I’m literally crying right now. I just prayed the 7 sorrows rosary for the first time tonight because I kept hearing about it and then my priest gave it to me to do as penance for my confession… right after I finished it for the first time, your video pops up out of nowhere. This is not by accident. She uses you all the time to reach me. Thank you 🙏🏻 ❤
“She was like a deer that was struck with an arrow and it was never removed, and she carried the arrow in her heart everywhere she went” I feel that in my soul, how relatable was that part, although I know her grief is more than my own but I know she understands how wounded I am, how hurt I am. I love those quotes about our lady of sorrows
Hi Gabriel, I want to share with you my rosary testimony. It's kind of long but if you want to talk about this more I'd be happy to go to Houston to go further (I'm in the DFW area) I grew up non-catholic. My mom was raised Catholic in the phillipines, but when she came to the United States at the age of 17 for college, she left her faith when she met my dad. My father was baptized lutheran, and growing up we lived more like non-denominational christians, but I would honestly say we acted like agnostics. Everything changed when my Uncle (who is Catholic) got rosaries blessed by St. Pope John Paul II. This was back in 2005. We placed them in our home, and the same week we all had convictions about becoming catholic. - I had a dream that we were all kneeling in a Church. I didn't understand what that meant because I had never knelt in a church before. My whole family was kneeling with me. - My brother had been dealing with a bunch of weird things going on at School, and was given a "random" thought that I should be sent into a Catholic school to avoid it. - My mother suddenly felt sorrow for her sins and wanted to become Catholic again - My father, who was reluctant at first, met the RCIA director who looked like, sounded like, and acted like his mother who had passed away. This woman drew him to the faith. When I first became catholic, I was on fire for the faith. Previously I had been sent to psychologists for anxiety disorders. I had awful nightmares of death and seeing people die. My mom tried to use a dream-catcher (this was before she reverted back to the faith) to try to "ward off" bad dreams, and it would work for a little bit, but then the dreams came back even more intense than before. When I received the sacraments, those dreams stopped. I was so enthusiastic about the Eucharist that even when I wasn't even fully initiated yet I asked to be an altar server. I altar served every Sunday for 3 masses. I even felt a calling to become a priest. However, as soon as I felt this calling, I got massive temptations to sin, particularly against chastity. One thing led to another, and I was massively addicted to p___graphy. This went on for several years, and I grew very cold in my faith. I started reasoning with sin, and making justifications for it. It got particularly bad in college, when I was introduced to evolution and started to have many doubts about the catholic faith. I was very luke-warm, and people had no idea. I went to mass weekly, went to confession occasionally, and hardly prayed unless I needed something. However, there was one thing that never left me: anxiety. I would have random bouts of anxiety and stress, sometimes to the point of tears and so much despair I wanted to end my life. I looked into eastern religion, got therapy, and even dabbled with occult practices like manifestation. This would work sometimes, but in the end it didn't last long. That was until one day I was so down that I begged God to show me how to relieve my anxiety. This time was different though, I asked God to show me how to get rid of it, not to simple take it away but to show me the way. In this moment of prayer in my room, I felt a motherly prescense tell me "pray the rosary". Immediately when I entertained that thought, I felt a swarm of dark emotions, telling me that "it's a waste of time" and "Don't bother, it won't work". At this point, these thoughts were so at conflict with one another it almost felt from outside of me and my intuition knew that it was the devil that was preventing me from saying it. So I said them anyway. I knew I had to pray the rosary to be healed, however, I honestly was bad at being disciplined. So I asked God to give me a sign to help me stay disciplined praying the rosary. A week later, my wife suddently tells me we are getting a dog (My confirmation saint is saint Dominic, you will know, this was not a coincidence). This dog we got came from a shelter, and also suffered massive anxiety and trust issues. That being said, the dog needed to be walked everyday, otherwise she would destroy pillows, make a mess, or not eat. So everyday around noon, I would take the dog, with a rosary in my hand, and pray the rosary. At first, it felt like I was literally pulling something out of my body. It was painful. It hurt to say the words. Until one day the negative voices just stopped. I knew though that this was only the first step towards getting better, so I asked God to keep me open to the next part of his plan. One day I was browsing through amazon to look up something, and in front of my face was a brown scapular. I just remembered that I had lost my brown scapular when I was 12, already had been enrolled and hadn't worn it in over 20 years. So I bought and when I put it on, I felt immediately ashamed. I started to remember all the sins of my past. All the times I took communion in the state of mortal sin. All the people I've misled by my bad behavior. Everything came to me at once. I was so saddened and ashamed that I was scared to go to confession for it. I asked God to give me strength, and went to daily mass. The readings put me to tears. It was the story of the prodigal son and after mass was over I scheduled a general confession with the priest at my parish. Ever since that day, my life has been changed by the Blessed Mother. She always looked out for me and I knew from the beginning she kept me safely in her hands, and led me to her son Jesus Christ. Thank you for all the work you do Gabriel, may God bless you and your ministry!
I saw a video you did on Our Lady of Sorrowers some time ago. That changed my spiritual life, especially as it related to the Sacrament of Penance. I am able to do a more honest self-reflection and even realized there were sins/transgressions I had not confessed in my young adult life (I am 56 years old). I'm trying harder than ever to avoid even the venial sins-- which prior to my devotion I was more lackadaisical about this. I pray for you, your family and your ministry every day because of the profound impact you've made in my life (and most certainly many others).
The devotion to the 7 Sorrows of Our Lady has become the key devotional of my prayer life, especially since falling into depression, it's comforting to know that Our Lady is not a stranger to that sort of suffering
I have long term depression too, and I also find being with Mary during her 7 sorrows to be very comforting. Such a powerful tool for when you are in low spirits and feeling alone 🙏
@@krakoosh1Jesus also said that no one can love the Holy Mother more than He does. Don't let the conspiracy get you. He gave us His Pure Mother as our own Mother's and as our Advocate. And what do we do when praying to Her who is the Holy Mother Church? We beg her for any grace in order to know and love Jesus perfectly, which is to love God more. "No one can go to My Father without going through me," and the same no one can love Jesus properly without going through Mary our Mother. You cannot say you love Jesus without Horner His Holy mammy. "Hail Mary full of grace" means She is "full of God!" How can you not Love Her, she is full of God, she is like a mirror reflecting Holy Trinity!!
A lot of us have depression nowadays. Glad you are on the road to heaven and already able to do mantle prayers. Just remember " in God, we are all being with you all the time! Doesn't matter how lonely you feel! We are with you no matter if you can feel it or not, for we are the Church Militant; all the Saints are with you, for their prayers and the shedding of the blood of the Marthers we are in the Church; all the Holy Souls in purgatory are with you praying for you, they can not pray for themselves, and for they love God so much they love us too. So to be a Catholic you never walk alone. Try to acknowledge Your poor Guardian Angel, for He is at your side, going through everything with you!! Which we do forget some times. God bless you my family, keep going and pray well.❤
@@2girlsfur192 no Jesus never said that. That is not in the Bible. The Bible says Jesus is the only advocate. Jesus also said we are not to call anyone on earth our spiritual father, so why would He command us to have a spiritual mother? There is but one God. Mary is a sinner just like every human ever born. She admits this herself in Luke. She calls God her savior. Only sinners need a savior. The Bible says she found favor from God, not she is holy. She is not a perpetual virgin either. The Bible is clear on that and Roman Catholic apologists even admit this without knowing it. Romans 3, there are none righteous, no not one. You don’t know the scriptures.
This church is so especial to me… I was protestant and because of Jesús mercy…I’ve became catholic 9 years ago…The BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE…I learned I had a mother. I was motherless before…and I knew right in that moment how much I missed my spiritual mother…My life literally changed when I started praying the rosary..Now I love her, because is the mother of my Jesús Christ ❤️
I agree. I began having a devotion to her 7 Sorrows when I couldn’t sleep at night from a broken heart. My marriage is under attack, as solo parenting 6of my 7kids preventing them from the damage , even more keeping our heads above the water as veteran hubby spirals even deeper in his disability and seeks divorce. My anxiety all time high, my eyes hurt from crying. OurLady made me feel intimate with her. Keep playing this devotion even while you sleep. I wake up feeling her close. I never knew her before, but this devotion showed me there’s so er more to this mystery and I’ve been able to surrender to Jesus more.
I done the novena of our lady of sorrows inspired from your channel as a preparation for last Christmas. I am on my way to divorce due to some of my actions betraying trust. But i have saying the our lady of sorrows rosary since last december. It consoles a lot and atleast it give a hope atleast in my spiritual life despite of my miserable addiction and failures. St Joseph and our lady pray for me.
Gabi, Your PASSION in your teaching is so great, so truthful, so fantastic, ..... SO SAINTLY, the Blessed Mother is very PROUD of you. You win over HEARTS & MINDS when you speak. Dude, you truly SAVED MY LIFE!! ❤❤✝✝
I am praying the 7 Sorrows Chaplet for the conversion/reversion of a friend, A.N. to the Catholic faith. Pls pray that he put God first in his life and have a prayer life and relationship with Him. Thank you
This video was an answered prayer. I was asking very recently the meaning of Our Lady of Sorrows and what it meant. When I prayed on a couple of days separately, something bad would happen in my case a discord between family/spouse and traumas coming up. A friend told me later on that it could be something that Our Lady needed me to pray for. It didn’t bring much encouragement. However this video brought a lot of enlightenment and meaning. I’m starting to understand. Pray for me as I uncover more and the spiritual power of this breathing prayer. Thank you so much for explaining in depth, Mother Mary knew I needed to hear the explanation through you as you were the person to have brought me back to my Catholic Faith! Can’t wait for part 2!
The seven sorrows rosary is so powerful, It gave be a job, and now its about to give me my sacrament of matrimony, a thing that really seemed to be Very impossible, but it opened those doors
I honestly have never understood why people have issues with Mary. I have never had an issue having Mary as my Mama. ZERO! NONE! On the contrary! It has always been such a comfort knowing I have a “Loving Mother “ in Heaven! MY LORD! What a gift! Thank you FATHER! Thank you JESUS! For your inconceivable sacrifices and giving us YOUR Mother. Please give us, give me the grace to love YOU as I ought! Please grant me the grace to love Mother Mary with all my heart and soul! Grant me the grace to Love Mary like you love Her. Like the Angels and Saints love Her! Please my LORD! Listen to my poor silly prayers!
My grandmother moved out today to live with an uncle and I feel so sad. She has never fully grieved from her 4 sons tragically passing ... And it effects her spiritual life tremendously.. it has all been weighing heavy on my heart. I gave up KRplus for Lent & this was the first video that I watched fully. I already had a devotion to Our Lady of the 7 Sorrows but stopped praying the rosary... I know our Mother wants me to grieve for my grandmother while I grieve with our Mother by doing the 7 sorrows again.
I think a mother never fully recovers from the death of a child. I feel for her so much to have lost four sons. I lost one son Vincent. he was 19 when he was murdered. I was very angry and hateful about his murderers and my son came to me in a dream and said that he was allowed to come because I had to give up that hate and know that he was with Jesus. He also told me that. he had met his grandmother who died years before it was funny that grandmother, my grandmother prayed the rosary every day, and what he said about her was Bubba and mother Mary are tight. It made me laugh, but it also made me know that he was truly in heaven, and he gave me great peace. I even prayed with him to forgive his murderers as Jesus did on the cross, and it gave me closure. I hope you share this. And perhaps it will help your grandmother. He also told me that there are many who have no one to pray for them, so pray, for the poor souls in purgatory, pray for those who have no one to pray for them
@@2bbossfree my uncle (my grandmother's son) was named Vincent (my oldest brother is named after him). He was 16 when he was murdered with his brother Michael (15 years old) (I actually have a cousin named Vince-Michael). Those were the first 2 sons who she lost... This is where it where it all began... A month ago an incident happened where my uncle Vincent appeared in a family member's dream and a "spiritual occurrence".. Everyone brushed it off as spooky .. but I was like no. He needs our prayers. Even telling my grandmother. I offered my rosaries daily for him if he's in purgatory- I then had a dream the day my grandmother moved out- of a feeling of 4 hugs pulsating from me when I was hugging my grandmother... I knew those were her sons hugging her. I've stopped offering my daily rosary for my uncle... But he came to mind today... And offering my sacrifices to those in purgatory... it came to mind today how I need to devote my rosaries for them again. And then this comment... Thank you so much.... And now my mother is on the phone with my grandmother as I type this comment... Ha. I will pray more on how to go about this. Thank you so much for sharing your story. God bless you and all your loved ones. Truly God used you to help my family and I.
@@ornange I am praying for you and your family. When I read your comment about your grandmother, I felt strongly that I needed to comment and pray. In my dream, years ago, which seems like only yesterday it was so vivid, my son said that because we always said, after daily meal grace, "May the souls of the faithful departed by the mercy of God, rest in peace" when he was murdered he was surrounded by the light of those souls he had prayed for-- now in heaven--just saying that simple prayer from the time he was little was such a blessing both for them and for him. He said never forget to pray for those in purgatory. Very few pray for them anymore and they are so very grateful for our prayers. Vinny said most visitations of "ghosts" or dreams are those in purgatory asking for prayers. I know those who are not Catholic will scoff, but he said, we, the Church are the body of Christ. We are all connected--One in the Father as Jesus said. "When your knee is skinned, doesn't your hand hold the pain?" Those in purgatory ARE saved by Jesus. That is why they are the "faithful departed" Nothing can save those in hell, but (Matthew 5:26) Every penny must be paid--that is purgatory.
I have been praying the Seven Sorrows novena that is in the back of My Sunday Missal from way back in the 1950’s. I also pray the Precious Blood novena and St Joseph novena from the back of this wonderful book. These are wonderful devotions. ❤✝️❤
Thank you for your ministry. The last part where you said that Our Mother Mary chose us for this consecration, that it was not us who chose her.... reminded me that a year ago before taking the bar exams, I was about to back out because I was scared of taking the exams. I asked God if he wanted me to go on. Three days before the bar, I dreamt of her reminding me to do the Consecration, and I woke up and saw the moon shine brightly down me from my window view. I felt her there with me. I never got to do the Consecration, but I would make a daily Consecration to her Miraculous Medal. When you said that last part, I found peace and felt her love for a sinner like me. With your video, I'm looking to do the 33-day Consecration or a new found devotion to our Lady of Sorrows, a perfect devotion this Holy Week. ❤
O mother of God, your lap was the first throne of jesus.you give our lord your blood and flesh... The same we recive in holy communion..grant us the grace to be worthy of yours and christ blood and body..Amen
I love this devotion, only started it about a year ago, together with 15 prayers of St Bridget. For some reason, I was just drawn to it. I love all your talks on the 7 sorrows. A friend made me a beautiful 7 sorrows rosary. This month I have also started the 7 Joys and sorrows of Joseph, it is so beautiful. Thank you for this beautiful talk. I look forward to the next one. 🙏🏻
Immaculee Ilibagiza also has a devotion to the 7 sorrows which has helped her with the grief of losing her whole family in the Rwandan Genocide. Powerful. Can’t imagine…
Thank you for posting so many amazing videos on this channel and for helping so many souls to be closer to God! I must admit though, this is so far your absolute BEST video, I was almost crying when you were explaining the 7 sorrows of Mary, and I wasn't even meditating on them! Definitely a must watch for everyone!
What a talk, you are blessing. I have just completed 54 days Novena to our Lady of Sorrows. I will do my best to say it daily, morning hours like you do.
Mental prayer WORKS. I heard it and gave an honest shot at it and wow! I Imagined that Mary and Jesus were present with me face to face, imagined Jesus's feet pierced, and imagined Mary's hand touching them. TEARS almost immediately, a comforting peace, a sense of gratitude, and a feeling of love and being loved. Then, I asked for clarity on where I need to suffer and asked for help to suffer. I was shown that my girlfriend needs a comforter and someone to hold her. Glory be to God and may more be given to Our Lady. God bless you.
42 minutes worth spent, I was of recent reading the book of St. Catherine of Siena and the Lord was speaking to her about mental prayer and to be honest I did not know what it was until watching this. Thank you very much may God bless you.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I have completed your consecration through Maxmillian Kolbe and have found devotions to Our Lady of Sorrows very profound this Easter season.
Take heart, Mary, she who weeps for Jesus, and for poor sinners. The harvest of thy womb has trampled Death by death. Holy Mary, Mother of Sorrows, grant that we may know and despise our own evil. Amen.
That's was so powerful. Our Lady really loves you Gabi, it's so clear to see and your love for her so clear to see aswell. Everytime I listen to you you bring me closer to Our Lady. I had been praying our lady of sorrows rosary everyday and then I stopped. I'm going to start it again. I can just imagine how Our Lady will turn up for you on the day you die and welcome you into heaven. She's so proud of you. Stay blessed ❤
Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us Amen. Thank you Gabiafterhours for this video, very timely for this Lenten season. I watch your videos and O find them ao inspiring and what I needed to help me grow spiritually. May God bless you and your ministry. Watching from the Philippines ☺️❤️
I have been doing the Our Lady of Sorrows Rosary for exactly a year now (bcuz of you). It has been so helpful & one day in Sept right after TLM..I was helped by Mary in a very amazing way. It was incredible!! This discussion (along with Father Chris Alar’s recent one on just how horrible the suffering of Jesus was in Good Friday…) made me see I have to do so much better with my praying & 7 Sorrows Rosary. One can’t see how this helps until they start doing it. 🙏🏽✝️
Thank you so much for this wonderful content! I was very glad to hear you talk about mental prayer. I have somehow wandered into doing mental prayer over the years. I have sometimes wondered if I overdramatized my prayers imagining being there to witness the sorrows of Jesus and Mary, but this video gives me peaceful reassurance that I have been led here. May God Bless you!
Hello Gabi. After 7 years of being apart from Christ and the church, I’ve came across your videos and the Virgin Mary has been helping me come back to Jesus. Been praying the rosary begging from my conversion and the conversion of my husband who’s a non-practicing catholic. Please pray for his soul, he’s a police officer and I sometimes worry for his life but more importantly his soul. Please pray that we can eventually get married through the church because I long for Jesus in me. I’m exhausted of carrying this mortal sin and I wish my husband can see that life without Christ is meaningless. Please come to WA state where evangelization is needed!
The amount of need that my soul and spirit needed for this video is indescribable. Thank you so much for sharing this, truly. I am going through a hellish custody battle after my children’s father abused them on top of so much more. Since then, he has vengefully destroyed me socially, physically, financially, mentally, and my children and pI have suffered so much. And in the end he is getting the kids back to abuse again, one of them being non verbal and severely autistic. I cannot even imagine the life of our Blessed Mother, and knowing how she remained graceful and loving throughout watching such a beautiful son AND son of God be crucified for us sinners, it is unfathomable. Many days I want to die, I want to give up. But for my children I keep going, and am so immensely grateful that God loved us so much that he not only gave us a savior, but also a perfect Mother to be sorrowful along side us. Thank you so much ❤
Wow! Thank you thank you for this! I told mother that I want to truly propagate my heart to hers while praying the chaplet of 7 sorrows but I’ve been struggling. In a way I feel like she sent me this
Thank you & for sharing the story of Our Blessed Mother's 7 Sorrows. I found out about this from the lady who leads our rosary makers group at church. She had aaked me to make a few of this special rosary in which she would attached the metal at the beginning section. I've included it in my daily prayers, especially for the Blessed Mother's assistance in the conversion of my family. ✝️🙏🛐❣️
'A sword of sorrow your own SOUL shall pierce also that the thoughts of many hearts be revealed.' 'Soul' suggests to the very core, deepest part of Her being, permeating all Her being. I have had those words inscribed in me since childhood. I am now 63 years of age. SOUL.
Thank you for this video. I first discovered the seven sorrows rosary about a year ago, and I find myself really drawn to it, however I lack the discipline to pray both my regular rosaries, and a seven sorrows one each day, although I wish I did. I have a long way to go before I can handle adding that. Until then she will always hold a special place in my heart under the title, Queen of Sorrows. Please pray for me, God bless!
Thank you Gabi for this beautiful, inspiring talk. God bless you, and your family. Your love for Jesus and our Blessed Mother brings me to tears. I have been subscribed to your channel for many years, but this talk and your videos, on Consecration through Maximillian Kolbe have strengthened even more my desire to live in union with Our Lord. I will keep you in my prayers.
Thank you! This was thee most loveliest ways I have ever heard and visualized the Seven Sorrows of Mary- Ever! I pray the rosary daily but I would very much like to also add the Seven Sorrows of Mary to my daily life too. I'm going to save this video and play it repeatedly to listen for other messages in it that I missed the first time. God bless you.
What better day to meditate the Passion of our Lord through the pierced heart of Mary than Good Friday? Thank you for this video. May God bless you always
All praises to Jesus 1 Corinthians 15 1-4 we are saved by his blood not Mary's. It's what he did at the cross because Mary too needed a salvation because she was a sinner... All have fallen short not one is good that why she had to give an offering... Because she took needs salvation.
Wow thank you for the inspiration and the encouragement for us turn to Our Lady of Sorrows especially that I am listening to this on Holy Thursday! Let me walk with you my Most Holy Mother in your sorrows.
thank you for this❤️ i heard one meditation that says "death is so painful " the separation of the body and soul and how Jesus loves His mother so much that He doesn't let her feel that suffering. To Jesus through Mary. pray of us.
Oh how Mary must have felt , every night she must have laid awake after simeons prophecy. When we thought my son was seriously I’ll, waiting for test results , even just those few days… torture. She waited like that… every single night. Not knowing when or how. She never stopped weeping. From that first sword there was no peace 😢
..... yes....... i got to see Her Immaculate Heart and she interceded for me to see Jesus Himself.....this was after Holy Communion .... and telling her about my lifelong sufferings....Our Lady is our Purest Mother who will really Pray for us poor sinners..... oh my Jesus , forgive us our sins, save us from the Fires of hell , Lead all souls to Heaven ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO ARE MOST IN NEED OF YOUR MERCY..... repeat throughout the whole day.... Oh Purest Mother Mary, conceived without Sin, Pray and intercede for us who have recoursed to Thee..... especially those who are wearing your Miraculous Medals around the World......intercede for All the Graces which we do not know how to ask for......Jesus, living in us from Communion to Communion inside us, may we know how to Humble ourselves that YOU increase and take over our lives in every situation..... Padre Pio...St Bartholomew and all Saints ....pray for us.
Dear Brothers and Sisters, I am asking for your prayers. I took the most important examination of my life, which decides my future and career. But I'm not fully satisfied with my performance. Pray for me so a miracle may happen and I can score above 90 percent. This is very important and so are your prayers for me. Please remember me in your daily rosary or say a prayer to the Father or 3 Hail Marys for me. May God bless you. Jesus, I trust in you.
I'm going through the RCIA, but I have a protestant background, and one of the teachings I struggled with was Mother Mary, but I've seen that starting to change sense someone donated miraculous medals to everyone in my RCIA group.
I always wanted a friendship like Mary had with Elizabeth . All my Catholic friends abandoned me. And I am the hundredth sheep but nobody comes to find me. Nobody except Mary and her son. My journey from Protestantism to Catholicism has been filled with loneliness. And I pray that I will always stand beside converts . My heart will always hold their hands and I will talk forever to them about the Mother heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Thank you Gabi. ❤May God bless you.❤ May the Blessed Mother use you more deeply for the glory of God. ❤. An Indian from Oman ❤Please pray for the beautiful country of Oman. ❤
Thank you Gabriel to remind us the perfect love of our Blessed Mother and how to live with her throughout our life. God bless you and each one that is part of this family.
Thank you Gabi! By the grace of God and by the infinite merits of Our Lady of Sorrows you’ve come a long way and are now so well guided and inspired to bring us all along, to Heaven. In such times as ours when evil is proclaimed and even accepted by so many people as good, and everything is upside down, and seems like it’s so near to Our Lord’s second coming, the urgency to repent and to abide completely like Our Blessed Mother, with and in Her Son. Or else it’s game over for eternity for millions of us all! So thank you in the context of this urgency. I’ll keep you and your family in my prayers. I’m from Canada mother of 2 adult sons, the elder being yet not fully into the Love and Grace of God by his free will. Please pray for him and all young adult men and women in such times with their university education and all the brainwashing that diluted their faith so badly. Lord have mercy on ALL our families 🙏🏼God bless.
I made a 7 Sorrows chaplet at the request of a friend. He had it and never prayed it. Then he had a mental breakdown. He still did not pray it. And, then, he said it started screaming at him. I think he tried to say that it was about me, but I think this is all the result of him not praying it. I refused to take it back. I hope he has started praying it.
Loved this video, this is one of my favourite devotions. Could you do a talk that is oriented to hearing the voice of god in mental prayer; how to discern between something made up in the imagination and the actual inspirations of God.
When my infant daughter was dying in the hospital 38 years ago, I was forced out of her room by the Charge nurse, because I had been reading the Books of Romans and Acts over her bed, out loud. I went down to the breezeway and was about half way to the entranceway doors when, VERY loudly, I heard my name. I turned around and saw no one there that I knew. I ran back upstairs, stopping at every nurse's station asking, on the way up, and into every doctor's office, asking if they had called me. I ran into my daughter's room, picked up the Bible, and started reading Roman's, and was again forced out by the Charge nurse. I collapsed on the couch, and I met our Lord and Savior. He held my baby's soul in his arms, was filled with love; a love so great that we will never experience the same feeling on this Earth. You will know. I fell to my knees, finally realizing that I had heard the voice of God. . I was able to hold my baby's soul, and was held in the arms of Jesus. Comforted, even knowing she was willfully going HOME. Jesus said, "I go to prepare a place for you." I'm 60 years old now, and on Heather's birthday, every year, I remember that scene as vividly as if it just happened. You will know when God calls your name.

My grandmother prayed the Rosary everyday. She suffered with being widow in poverty and with continuous physical illnesses for for forty years and then had a terrible death, essentially starved to death in the hospital but she always remained docile and loving always praying for others up until the last moment. When she was passing she saw the Blessed Mother and her human mother who died when she was a child… the last thing she said to my Aunt was, “it’s so beautiful I wish you could see!”.
She’s in Heaven with the Blessed Mother now. What a beautiful person your grandmother was. Life can sometimes seem so sad, but a woman like your grandmother offered her pain to God.
Amen!
God bless her!
Beautiful story. It touched my heart 💗
I'm in tears with your grandma's testimony. ❤
Wow! What a talk. As a convert to Catholicism “the Mary stuff” was difficult for me at the beginning. Your channel helped me understand the truth of our most holy mother. I now pray the rosary and wear her medallion.
Welcome!! 🤗 📿 🥀
🤝
I agree. In my later years I came back to my baptized faith. I never understood Mary BUT THE HOLY SPIRIT OPENED MY EYES. It was a flood of knowledge after that. Bible study after bible study about Mary flooded my life. It all maid sense. It makes good reasonable sense and good philosophical sense that Mary is exactly who she is.
I went through a similar process. Dr Fulton-Brown was helpful too
@@SoyebAkhtar151 and Jesus said in John 14:6 “I am the way, the Truth and the Life. No-one comes to the Father except through me.”
Our Lady is not an idol; we don’t worship her. Rather we revere her as the first among saints.
Gaby, Our Lady keeps leading me in my prayers and every time she does, you drop a video to clarify what she was telling me. I’m literally crying right now. I just prayed the 7 sorrows rosary for the first time tonight because I kept hearing about it and then my priest gave it to me to do as penance for my confession… right after I finished it for the first time, your video pops up out of nowhere. This is not by accident. She uses you all the time to reach me. Thank you 🙏🏻 ❤
This is 100% a divine confirmation.... keep saying yes.
Yes 🙏🏻❤️📿
I love this ❤ thank you ❤❤ I haven’t tried having Mama M lead me in praying the rosary before! Imma give it a shot! Pray for me! ☺️
“She was like a deer that was struck with an arrow and it was never removed, and she carried the arrow in her heart everywhere she went” I feel that in my soul, how relatable was that part, although I know her grief is more than my own but I know she understands how wounded I am, how hurt I am. I love those quotes about our lady of sorrows
Same! I carry my own arrow.
Hi Gabriel, I want to share with you my rosary testimony. It's kind of long but if you want to talk about this more I'd be happy to go to Houston to go further (I'm in the DFW area)
I grew up non-catholic. My mom was raised Catholic in the phillipines, but when she came to the United States at the age of 17 for college, she left her faith when she
met my dad. My father was baptized lutheran, and growing up we lived more like non-denominational christians, but I would honestly say we acted like agnostics.
Everything changed when my Uncle (who is Catholic) got rosaries blessed by St. Pope John Paul II. This was back in 2005. We placed them in our home, and the same week we
all had convictions about becoming catholic.
- I had a dream that we were all kneeling in a Church. I didn't understand what that meant because I had never knelt in a church before. My whole family was kneeling with me.
- My brother had been dealing with a bunch of weird things going on at School, and was given a "random" thought that I should be sent into a Catholic school to avoid it.
- My mother suddenly felt sorrow for her sins and wanted to become Catholic again
- My father, who was reluctant at first, met the RCIA director who looked like, sounded like, and acted like his mother who had passed away. This woman drew him to the faith.
When I first became catholic, I was on fire for the faith. Previously I had been sent to psychologists for anxiety disorders. I had awful nightmares of death and seeing people
die. My mom tried to use a dream-catcher (this was before she reverted back to the faith) to try to "ward off" bad dreams, and it would work for a little bit, but then the
dreams came back even more intense than before.
When I received the sacraments, those dreams stopped. I was so enthusiastic about the Eucharist that even when I wasn't even fully initiated yet I asked to be an altar server.
I altar served every Sunday for 3 masses. I even felt a calling to become a priest.
However, as soon as I felt this calling, I got massive temptations to sin, particularly against chastity. One thing led to another, and I was massively addicted to p___graphy.
This went on for several years, and I grew very cold in my faith. I started reasoning with sin, and making justifications for it. It got particularly bad in college, when I was introduced
to evolution and started to have many doubts about the catholic faith.
I was very luke-warm, and people had no idea. I went to mass weekly, went to confession occasionally, and hardly prayed unless I needed something. However, there was one thing
that never left me: anxiety. I would have random bouts of anxiety and stress, sometimes to the point of tears and so much despair I wanted to end my life.
I looked into eastern religion, got therapy, and even dabbled with occult practices like manifestation. This would work sometimes, but in the end it didn't last long. That
was until one day I was so down that I begged God to show me how to relieve my anxiety. This time was different though, I asked God to show me how to get rid of it, not
to simple take it away but to show me the way.
In this moment of prayer in my room, I felt a motherly prescense tell me "pray the rosary". Immediately when I entertained that thought, I felt a swarm of dark emotions,
telling me that "it's a waste of time" and "Don't bother, it won't work". At this point, these thoughts were so at conflict with one another it almost felt from outside of me
and my intuition knew that it was the devil that was preventing me from saying it. So I said them anyway.
I knew I had to pray the rosary to be healed, however, I honestly was bad at being disciplined. So I asked God to give me a sign to help me stay disciplined praying the rosary. A week later,
my wife suddently tells me we are getting a dog (My confirmation saint is saint Dominic, you will know, this was not a coincidence). This dog we got came from a shelter, and
also suffered massive anxiety and trust issues. That being said, the dog needed to be walked everyday, otherwise she would destroy pillows, make a mess, or not eat.
So everyday around noon, I would take the dog, with a rosary in my hand, and pray the rosary. At first, it felt like I was literally pulling something out of my body. It was
painful. It hurt to say the words. Until one day the negative voices just stopped. I knew though that this was only the first step towards getting better, so I asked God
to keep me open to the next part of his plan.
One day I was browsing through amazon to look up something, and in front of my face was a brown scapular. I just remembered that I had lost my brown scapular when I was 12, already
had been enrolled and hadn't worn it in over 20 years. So I bought and when I put it on, I felt immediately ashamed. I started to remember all the sins of my past. All the times
I took communion in the state of mortal sin. All the people I've misled by my bad behavior. Everything came to me at once.
I was so saddened and ashamed that I was scared to go to confession for it. I asked God to give me strength, and went to daily mass. The readings put me to tears. It was the
story of the prodigal son and after mass was over I scheduled a general confession with the priest at my parish.
Ever since that day, my life has been changed by the Blessed Mother. She always looked out for me and I knew from the beginning she kept me safely in her hands, and led me
to her son Jesus Christ.
Thank you for all the work you do Gabriel, may God bless you and your ministry!
I saw a video you did on Our Lady of Sorrowers some time ago. That changed my spiritual life, especially as it related to the Sacrament of Penance. I am able to do a more honest self-reflection and even realized there were sins/transgressions I had not confessed in my young adult life (I am 56 years old). I'm trying harder than ever to avoid even the venial sins-- which prior to my devotion I was more lackadaisical about this. I pray for you, your family and your ministry every day because of the profound impact you've made in my life (and most certainly many others).
Beautiful. Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us!
I will watch but We are too far down .
Pray for My Family and Me , would You ? 🙏 ❤ 💜
@@Alan-zj5fznothing is unforgivable if you have a true repentant heart
@@Alan-zj5fzI will pray for you. Persevere
The devotion to the 7 Sorrows of Our Lady has become the key devotional of my prayer life, especially since falling into depression, it's comforting to know that Our Lady is not a stranger to that sort of suffering
I have long term depression too, and I also find being with Mary during her 7 sorrows to be very comforting. Such a powerful tool for when you are in low spirits and feeling alone 🙏
The devotion of your prayer life should be God only. God said, He will not share His glory with anyone
@@krakoosh1Jesus also said that no one can love the Holy Mother more than He does. Don't let the conspiracy get you. He gave us His Pure Mother as our own Mother's and as our Advocate. And what do we do when praying to Her who is the Holy Mother Church? We beg her for any grace in order to know and love Jesus perfectly, which is to love God more. "No one can go to My Father without going through me," and the same no one can love Jesus properly without going through Mary our Mother. You cannot say you love Jesus without Horner His Holy mammy. "Hail Mary full of grace" means She is "full of God!" How can you not Love Her, she is full of God, she is like a mirror reflecting Holy Trinity!!
A lot of us have depression nowadays. Glad you are on the road to heaven and already able to do mantle prayers. Just remember " in God, we are all being with you all the time! Doesn't matter how lonely you feel! We are with you no matter if you can feel it or not, for we are the Church Militant; all the Saints are with you, for their prayers and the shedding of the blood of the Marthers we are in the Church; all the Holy Souls in purgatory are with you praying for you, they can not pray for themselves, and for they love God so much they love us too. So to be a Catholic you never walk alone. Try to acknowledge Your poor Guardian Angel, for He is at your side, going through everything with you!! Which we do forget some times. God bless you my family, keep going and pray well.❤
@@2girlsfur192 no Jesus never said that. That is not in the Bible. The Bible says Jesus is the only advocate. Jesus also said we are not to call anyone on earth our spiritual father, so why would He command us to have a spiritual mother? There is but one God. Mary is a sinner just like every human ever born. She admits this herself in Luke. She calls God her savior. Only sinners need a savior. The Bible says she found favor from God, not she is holy. She is not a perpetual virgin either. The Bible is clear on that and Roman Catholic apologists even admit this without knowing it. Romans 3, there are none righteous, no not one. You don’t know the scriptures.
Also i did your 33 day consecration, it changed everything, this is also why i need u in my life, thank you ,God bless you Gabi ❤️ 🙏
Me too ...I on the path
YES! Consecration family!
@@gabiafterhours Gabi, you have NO IDEA how IMPORTANT you are to so many of us!! You quite LITTERLY saved MY life and a bunch of us too!
This church is so especial to me… I was protestant and because of Jesús mercy…I’ve became catholic 9 years ago…The BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE…I learned I had a mother. I was motherless before…and I knew right in that moment how much I missed my spiritual mother…My life literally changed when I started praying the rosary..Now I love her, because is the mother of my Jesús Christ ❤️
I agree. I began having a devotion to her 7 Sorrows when I couldn’t sleep at night from a broken heart. My marriage is under attack, as solo parenting 6of my 7kids preventing them from the damage , even more keeping our heads above the water as veteran hubby spirals even deeper in his disability and seeks divorce. My anxiety all time high, my eyes hurt from crying. OurLady made me feel intimate with her. Keep playing this devotion even while you sleep. I wake up feeling her close. I never knew her before, but this devotion showed me there’s so er more to this mystery and I’ve been able to surrender to Jesus more.
I done the novena of our lady of sorrows inspired from your channel as a preparation for last Christmas. I am on my way to divorce due to some of my actions betraying trust. But i have saying the our lady of sorrows rosary since last december. It consoles a lot and atleast it give a hope atleast in my spiritual life despite of my miserable addiction and failures. St Joseph and our lady pray for me.
I wept after listening to this. Thank you Mother Mary.
Gabi, Your PASSION in your teaching is so great, so truthful, so fantastic, ..... SO SAINTLY, the Blessed Mother is very PROUD of you.
You win over HEARTS & MINDS when you speak. Dude, you truly SAVED MY LIFE!! ❤❤✝✝
Our Lady guided me and my friends to start the Knights of Our Lady of Sorrows! Truly a devotion for the times!
I am praying the 7 Sorrows Chaplet for the conversion/reversion of a friend, A.N. to the Catholic faith.
Pls pray that he put God first in his life and have a prayer life and relationship with Him. Thank you
This video was an answered prayer. I was asking very recently the meaning of Our Lady of Sorrows and what it meant. When I prayed on a couple of days separately, something bad would happen in my case a discord between family/spouse and traumas coming up. A friend told me later on that it could be something that Our Lady needed me to pray for. It didn’t bring much encouragement. However this video brought a lot of enlightenment and meaning. I’m starting to understand. Pray for me as I uncover more and the spiritual power of this breathing prayer. Thank you so much for explaining in depth, Mother Mary knew I needed to hear the explanation through you as you were the person to have brought me back to my Catholic Faith! Can’t wait for part 2!
After I watched your video “the mission” Mary used me to give miraculous medals to my CP2 class. I couldn’t have done it without her help.
Lets goooooo!
@@gabiafterhours 🗿👍
The Passion of Christ depicts Mother Mary locking eyes with YESHUA, that scene instantly brings tears, that's a sword. Watching 👀 this horrendous act.
Lady of sorrows pray for us. Love your videos. Majko žalosna moli za nas. Hello from Croatia
Thank you very much! God bless you!!
A great reminder to strengthen my devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows
Amen!!!!
The seven sorrows rosary is so powerful, It gave be a job, and now its about to give me my sacrament of matrimony, a thing that really seemed to be Very impossible, but it opened those doors
I honestly have never understood why people have issues with Mary. I have never had an issue having Mary as my Mama. ZERO! NONE!
On the contrary! It has always been such a comfort knowing I have a “Loving Mother “ in Heaven! MY LORD!
What a gift! Thank you FATHER!
Thank you JESUS! For your inconceivable sacrifices and giving us YOUR Mother.
Please give us, give me the grace to love YOU as I ought!
Please grant me the grace to love Mother Mary with all my heart and soul! Grant me the grace to Love Mary like you love Her. Like the Angels and Saints love Her!
Please my LORD! Listen to my poor silly prayers!
Protestantism and secularism hate women is basically why
❤❤❤ the 7 Sorrows Rosary was a game changer for me. Mary, who was conceived without sin and who suffered for us, pray for us!
My grandmother moved out today to live with an uncle and I feel so sad. She has never fully grieved from her 4 sons tragically passing ... And it effects her spiritual life tremendously.. it has all been weighing heavy on my heart.
I gave up KRplus for Lent & this was the first video that I watched fully.
I already had a devotion to Our Lady of the 7 Sorrows but stopped praying the rosary... I know our Mother wants me to grieve for my grandmother while I grieve with our Mother by doing the 7 sorrows again.
I think a mother never fully recovers from the death of a child. I feel for her so much to have lost four sons. I lost one son Vincent. he was 19 when he was murdered. I was very angry and hateful about his murderers and my son came to me in a dream and said that he was allowed to come because I had to give up that hate and know that he was with Jesus. He also told me that. he had met his grandmother who died years before it was funny that grandmother, my grandmother prayed the rosary every day, and what he said about her was Bubba and mother Mary are tight. It made me laugh, but it also made me know that he was truly in heaven, and he gave me great peace. I even prayed with him to forgive his murderers as Jesus did on the cross, and it gave me closure. I hope you share this. And perhaps it will help your grandmother. He also told me that there are many who have no one to pray for them, so pray, for the poor souls in purgatory, pray for those who have no one to pray for them
@@2bbossfree my uncle (my grandmother's son) was named Vincent (my oldest brother is named after him). He was 16 when he was murdered with his brother Michael (15 years old) (I actually have a cousin named Vince-Michael). Those were the first 2 sons who she lost... This is where it where it all began... A month ago an incident happened where my uncle Vincent appeared in a family member's dream and a "spiritual occurrence".. Everyone brushed it off as spooky .. but I was like no. He needs our prayers. Even telling my grandmother. I offered my rosaries daily for him if he's in purgatory- I then had a dream the day my grandmother moved out- of a feeling of 4 hugs pulsating from me when I was hugging my grandmother... I knew those were her sons hugging her. I've stopped offering my daily rosary for my uncle... But he came to mind today... And offering my sacrifices to those in purgatory... it came to mind today how I need to devote my rosaries for them again. And then this comment... Thank you so much.... And now my mother is on the phone with my grandmother as I type this comment... Ha. I will pray more on how to go about this. Thank you so much for sharing your story. God bless you and all your loved ones. Truly God used you to help my family and I.
@@ornange I am praying for you and your family. When I read your comment about your grandmother, I felt strongly that I needed to comment and pray.
In my dream, years ago, which seems like only yesterday it was so vivid, my son said that because we always said, after daily meal grace, "May the souls of the faithful departed by the mercy of God, rest in peace" when he was murdered he was surrounded by the light of those souls he had prayed for-- now in heaven--just saying that simple prayer from the time he was little was such a blessing both for them and for him.
He said never forget to pray for those in purgatory. Very few pray for them anymore and they are so very grateful for our prayers. Vinny said most visitations of "ghosts" or dreams are those in purgatory asking for prayers.
I know those who are not Catholic will scoff, but he said, we, the Church are the body of Christ. We are all connected--One in the Father as Jesus said. "When your knee is skinned, doesn't your hand hold the pain?" Those in purgatory ARE saved by Jesus. That is why they are the "faithful departed" Nothing can save those in hell, but (Matthew 5:26) Every penny must be paid--that is purgatory.
I have been praying the Seven Sorrows novena that is in the back of My Sunday Missal from way back in the 1950’s. I also pray the Precious Blood novena and St Joseph novena from the back of this wonderful book. These are wonderful devotions.
❤✝️❤
Thank you for your ministry. The last part where you said that Our Mother Mary chose us for this consecration, that it was not us who chose her.... reminded me that a year ago before taking the bar exams, I was about to back out because I was scared of taking the exams. I asked God if he wanted me to go on. Three days before the bar, I dreamt of her reminding me to do the Consecration, and I woke up and saw the moon shine brightly down me from my window view. I felt her there with me. I never got to do the Consecration, but I would make a daily Consecration to her Miraculous Medal. When you said that last part, I found peace and felt her love for a sinner like me. With your video, I'm looking to do the 33-day Consecration or a new found devotion to our Lady of Sorrows, a perfect devotion this Holy Week. ❤
Do the 33 day consecration that I lead. Like in the videos section of my main KRplus page and you will find the instructions.
This is a beautiful and remarkable talk! Thank you. Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.
O mother of God, your lap was the first throne of jesus.you give our lord your blood and flesh... The same we recive in holy communion..grant us the grace to be worthy of yours and christ blood and body..Amen
Our Lady was also the first Tabernacle, as she held our Lord, Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity, within her womb for 9 months. 🙏
👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏
@@NonnaTradCat❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
I love this devotion, only started it about a year ago, together with 15 prayers of St Bridget. For some reason, I was just drawn to it. I love all your talks on the 7 sorrows. A friend made me a beautiful 7 sorrows rosary. This month I have also started the 7 Joys and sorrows of Joseph, it is so beautiful. Thank you for this beautiful talk. I look forward to the next one. 🙏🏻
Immaculee Ilibagiza also has a devotion to the 7 sorrows which has helped her with the grief of losing her whole family in the Rwandan Genocide. Powerful. Can’t imagine…
Absolutely loved her book. It’s a must read!!
Thank you for posting so many amazing videos on this channel and for helping so many souls to be closer to God! I must admit though, this is so far your absolute BEST video, I was almost crying when you were explaining the 7 sorrows of Mary, and I wasn't even meditating on them! Definitely a must watch for everyone!
Thanks for sharing!! God is so merciful. God bless you!!
The seven decade Franciscan crown rosary is a great way to meditate on the seven sorrows of Mary
I so love Our Lady of Sorrows. I’m lost without Her🙏💕
Thank you my precious Mother for loving me..
What a talk, you are blessing. I have just completed 54 days Novena to our Lady of Sorrows. I will do my best to say it daily, morning hours like you do.
Mental prayer WORKS. I heard it and gave an honest shot at it and wow! I Imagined that Mary and Jesus were present with me face to face, imagined Jesus's feet pierced, and imagined Mary's hand touching them. TEARS almost immediately, a comforting peace, a sense of gratitude, and a feeling of love and being loved. Then, I asked for clarity on where I need to suffer and asked for help to suffer. I was shown that my girlfriend needs a comforter and someone to hold her. Glory be to God and may more be given to Our Lady. God bless you.
42 minutes worth spent, I was of recent reading the book of St. Catherine of Siena and the Lord was speaking to her about mental prayer and to be honest I did not know what it was until watching this. Thank you very much may God bless you.
Thank you for watching!!!
Thank you for sharing this with us. I have completed your consecration through Maxmillian Kolbe and have found devotions to Our Lady of Sorrows very profound this Easter season.
Take heart, Mary, she who weeps for Jesus, and for poor sinners. The harvest of thy womb has trampled Death by death. Holy Mary, Mother of Sorrows, grant that we may know and despise our own evil. Amen.
That's was so powerful. Our Lady really loves you Gabi, it's so clear to see and your love for her so clear to see aswell. Everytime I listen to you you bring me closer to Our Lady. I had been praying our lady of sorrows rosary everyday and then I stopped. I'm going to start it again. I can just imagine how Our Lady will turn up for you on the day you die and welcome you into heaven. She's so proud of you. Stay blessed ❤
Your words touch my heart. Thank you so much. I may God bless you and Mary be with you!!!
Gabe, my brother in Christ Jesus ... you are on fire 🔥 with the HOLY SPIRIT
Praise be Jesus Christ ✝️
Viva Cristo Rey 🗡️✝️🗡️
Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us Amen.
Thank you Gabiafterhours for this video, very timely for this Lenten season. I watch your videos and O find them ao inspiring and what I needed to help me grow spiritually. May God bless you and your ministry. Watching from the Philippines ☺️❤️
True, Mary is intimately close.. She is our Mother and loves us dearly.
I have been doing the Our Lady of Sorrows Rosary for exactly a year now (bcuz of you). It has been so helpful & one day in Sept right after TLM..I was helped by Mary in a very amazing way. It was incredible!! This discussion (along with Father Chris Alar’s recent one on just how horrible the suffering of Jesus was in Good Friday…) made me see I have to do so much better with my praying & 7 Sorrows Rosary. One can’t see how this helps until they start doing it. 🙏🏽✝️
Thank you so much for this wonderful content! I was very glad to hear you talk about mental prayer. I have somehow wandered into doing mental prayer over the years. I have sometimes wondered if I overdramatized my prayers imagining being there to witness the sorrows of Jesus and Mary, but this video gives me peaceful reassurance that I have been led here. May God Bless you!
Hello Gabi. After 7 years of being apart from Christ and the church, I’ve came across your videos and the Virgin Mary has been helping me come back to Jesus. Been praying the rosary begging from my conversion and the conversion of my husband who’s a non-practicing catholic. Please pray for his soul, he’s a police officer and I sometimes worry for his life but more importantly his soul. Please pray that we can eventually get married through the church because I long for Jesus in me. I’m exhausted of carrying this mortal sin and I wish my husband can see that life without Christ is meaningless. Please come to WA state where evangelization is needed!
The amount of need that my soul and spirit needed for this video is indescribable. Thank you so much for sharing this, truly. I am going through a hellish custody battle after my children’s father abused them on top of so much more. Since then, he has vengefully destroyed me socially, physically, financially, mentally, and my children and pI have suffered so much. And in the end he is getting the kids back to abuse again, one of them being non verbal and severely autistic. I cannot even imagine the life of our Blessed Mother, and knowing how she remained graceful and loving throughout watching such a beautiful son AND son of God be crucified for us sinners, it is unfathomable. Many days I want to die, I want to give up. But for my children I keep going, and am so immensely grateful that God loved us so much that he not only gave us a savior, but also a perfect Mother to be sorrowful along side us. Thank you so much ❤
Thank you for your spiritual fatherhood through Jesus, Joseph and Mary! In communion from Barcelona!
Wow! Thank you thank you for this! I told mother that I want to truly propagate my heart to hers while praying the chaplet of 7 sorrows but I’ve been struggling. In a way I feel like she sent me this
Yes! No coincedences.
Powerful devotion.
Thank you for this excellent video, Our Lady of Sorrows pray for us 🙏🙏🙏✝️❤️
Jesus Mariae Filius. You have spoken so well of Our Lady! So perfectly well! and of prayer. God reward you Gabi.
Thank you & for sharing the story of Our Blessed Mother's 7 Sorrows. I found out about this from the lady who leads our rosary makers group at church. She had aaked me to make a few of this special rosary in which she would attached the metal at the beginning section. I've included it in my daily prayers, especially for the Blessed Mother's assistance in the conversion of my family. ✝️🙏🛐❣️
Listening to this is making me cry, thank you ❤🙏🏼
I have doing the Seven Sorrows for 10 plus years. They will have more meaning now. ❤thank you. 😊
'A sword of sorrow your own SOUL shall pierce also that the thoughts of many hearts be revealed.' 'Soul' suggests to the very core, deepest part of Her being, permeating all Her being. I have had those words inscribed in me since childhood. I am now 63 years of age. SOUL.
Thank you for this. I truly appreciate everything you said and I believe. Praise be to God.
Thank you for this video. I first discovered the seven sorrows rosary about a year ago, and I find myself really drawn to it, however I lack the discipline to pray both my regular rosaries, and a seven sorrows one each day, although I wish I did. I have a long way to go before I can handle adding that. Until then she will always hold a special place in my heart under the title, Queen of Sorrows. Please pray for me, God bless!
Thank you Gabi for this beautiful, inspiring talk. God bless you, and your family. Your love for Jesus and our Blessed Mother brings me to tears. I have been subscribed to your channel for many years, but this talk and your videos, on Consecration through Maximillian Kolbe have strengthened even more my desire to live in union with Our Lord. I will keep you in my prayers.
God bless you Diane. Mary be with you!!!!
Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thank you! This was thee most loveliest ways I have ever heard and visualized the Seven Sorrows of Mary- Ever!
I pray the rosary daily but I would very much like to also add the Seven Sorrows of Mary to my daily life too.
I'm going to save this video and play it repeatedly to listen for other messages in it that I missed the first time.
God bless you.
What better day to meditate the Passion of our Lord through the pierced heart of Mary than Good Friday? Thank you for this video. May God bless you always
All praises to Jesus 1 Corinthians 15 1-4 we are saved by his blood not Mary's. It's what he did at the cross because Mary too needed a salvation because she was a sinner... All have fallen short not one is good that why she had to give an offering... Because she took needs salvation.
Wow thank you for the inspiration and the encouragement for us turn to Our Lady of Sorrows especially that I am listening to this on Holy Thursday! Let me walk with you my Most Holy Mother in your sorrows.
thank you for this❤️ i heard one meditation that says "death is so painful " the separation of the body and soul and how Jesus loves His mother so much that He doesn't let her feel that suffering. To Jesus through Mary. pray of us.
Amazing video. May the Heavenly Father continue to use you for his devine purpose to teach. Thank you, and God bless you always. 🙏 😊
Thank you Gabi for this powerful video! Ave Maria!
God bless you my friend. AVE MARIA!
Thank you for ALL your videos!!
This is Gold! Thanks Gabi for your work and sharing the richness of our faith.
Glad you enjoy it!
Many thanks for this inspiring talk. May God bless you and the work you do.
I think I’ll try to pray the 7 Sorrows Rosary. Thank you, Gabi.
Oh how Mary must have felt , every night she must have laid awake after simeons prophecy. When we thought my son was seriously I’ll, waiting for test results , even just those few days… torture. She waited like that… every single night. Not knowing when or how. She never stopped weeping. From that first sword there was no peace 😢
Awesome, anxiously awaiting part 2

Padre Pio...St Bartholomew and all Saints ....pray for us.
Dear Brothers and Sisters, I am asking for your prayers. I took the most important examination of my life, which decides my future and career. But I'm not fully satisfied with my performance. Pray for me so a miracle may happen and I can score above 90 percent. This is very important and so are your prayers for me. Please remember me in your daily rosary or say a prayer to the Father or 3 Hail Marys for me. May God bless you. Jesus, I trust in you.
God bless you Gabriel
I'm going through the RCIA, but I have a protestant background, and one of the teachings I struggled with was Mother Mary, but I've seen that starting to change sense someone donated miraculous medals to everyone in my RCIA group.
Thank you very so much🙏🙏🙏🙏
Learning so much from you, Thank you Gabriel
Happy to hear that! God bless you!!!
Mama really wants me to watch this video - it’s like I can’t get away from it 😂😂 finally watching it now ❤❤
I always wanted a friendship like Mary had with Elizabeth . All my Catholic friends abandoned me. And I am the hundredth sheep but nobody comes to find me. Nobody except Mary and her son. My journey from Protestantism to Catholicism has been filled with loneliness. And I pray that I will always stand beside converts . My heart will always hold their hands and I will talk forever to them about the Mother heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Thank you Gabi. ❤May God bless you.❤ May the Blessed Mother use you more deeply for the glory of God. ❤.

Thank you Gabriel to remind us the perfect love of our Blessed Mother and how to live with her throughout our life. God bless you and each one that is part of this family.
HALLELUJAH JESUS LOVE YOU FROM LEBANON BEIRUT AVE MARIA ♥️🌲♥️🇱🇧
Thank you Gabi! By the grace of God and by the infinite merits of Our Lady of Sorrows you’ve come a long way and are now so well guided and inspired to bring us all along, to Heaven. In such times as ours when evil is proclaimed and even accepted by so many people as good, and everything is upside down, and seems like it’s so near to Our Lord’s second coming, the urgency to repent and to abide completely like Our Blessed Mother, with and in Her Son. Or else it’s game over for eternity for millions of us all! So thank you in the context of this urgency. I’ll keep you and your family in my prayers. I’m from Canada mother of 2 adult sons, the elder being yet not fully into the Love and Grace of God by his free will. Please pray for him and all young adult men and women in such times with their university education and all the brainwashing that diluted their faith so badly. Lord have mercy on ALL our families 🙏🏼God bless.
Your videos renew my faith!
I cant comphrend the beautiful place Mary has in our Journey home to God.
❤Panginoon salamat po. Mama Mary salamat po.
I made a 7 Sorrows chaplet at the request of a friend. He had it and never prayed it. Then he had a mental breakdown. He still did not pray it. And, then, he said it started screaming at him. I think he tried to say that it was about me, but I think this is all the result of him not praying it.
I refused to take it back. I hope he has started praying it.
Here in Slovakia is Mother Marry of Sorrows our national patron❤
Loved this video, this is one of my favourite devotions. Could you do a talk that is oriented to hearing the voice of god in mental prayer; how to discern between something made up in the imagination and the actual inspirations of God.
When my infant daughter was dying in the hospital 38 years ago, I was forced out of her room by the Charge nurse, because I had been reading the Books of Romans and Acts over her bed, out loud. I went down to the breezeway and was about half way to the entranceway doors when, VERY loudly, I heard my name. I turned around and saw no one there that I knew. I ran back upstairs, stopping at every nurse's station asking, on the way up, and into every doctor's office, asking if they had called me. I ran into my daughter's room, picked up the Bible, and started reading Roman's, and was again forced out by the Charge nurse. I collapsed on the couch, and I met our Lord and Savior. He held my baby's soul in his arms, was filled with love; a love so great that we will never experience the same feeling on this Earth. You will know. I fell to my knees, finally realizing that I had heard the voice of God.
. I was able to hold my baby's soul, and was held in the arms of Jesus. Comforted, even knowing she was willfully going HOME. Jesus said, "I go to prepare a place for you." I'm 60 years old now, and on Heather's birthday, every year, I remember that scene as vividly as if it just happened. You will know when God calls your name.
Such. A. POWERFUL. Communication.
God bless you. This video has given me an idea on the next activity for my choir as the spiritual director.
