Episode Details

In this transformative episode of OMM, Fr. Mike Schmitz tackles one of the most difficult struggles many face: self-forgiveness. Through a compassionate and insightful discussion, Fr. Schmitz explores why forgiving ourselves is often harder than forgiving others, and how recognizing our need for grace and mercy is the first step toward healing. 💛🔑 Key Takeaways:

• God's mercy is for all of us, especially for those who recognize their need for it. It's not something to be earned but to be received through faith and surrender 🙏
• Self-forgiveness often comes with psychological barriers, such as feeling unworthy of love. Fr. Schmitz emphasizes that self-love is essential for truly loving others ❤️
• Restitution and reconciliation are part of the healing process—acknowledging the consequences of our actions and, where possible, making amends can help us move toward forgiveness 🌿
• Surrendering to God’s lordship over our lives means accepting His forgiveness and trusting in His plan for our redemption, even when we struggle to forgive ourselves 🌟

Fr. Schmitz invites listeners to embrace God's forgiveness fully and reminds us that loving ourselves is the foundation for loving others. By acknowledging our shortcomings and accepting God's grace, we can learn to let go of guilt and live a life of peace and purpose.🎧 Tune in to discover practical steps toward self-forgiveness and healing, and remember: forgiving yourself is a vital part of fulfilling the commandment to love your neighbour as yourself. #ForgiveYourself #OMM #FrMikeSchmitz #SelfLove #GodsGrace #RestitutionAndReconciliation #MercyAndForgiveness #SurrenderToGod #HealingJourney #LoveThyself
