Show Notes

"If only I had wings like a dove that I might fly away and find rest... But I will call upon God, and the LORD will save me." Psalm 55:7, 17

Do you find yourself in the same spot as David? Whether it's just a season or you've been feeling it for a while, Fr Mike Schmitz reminds us to attend to the honest desires of our heart.

We are not called to run away from responsibility, but if you're feeling burnt out or discouraged where you're at, it's time for a good conversation with the Lord, trusting that He will take care of you. Support The Fr. Mike Schmitz Catholic Podcast
