Redirect back with input not working in Laravel

I have a route post called "postContact" and when the post is success I redirect to the same contact.blade.php where place the post:

<form action="{{ route('post_contact) }}"></form>

I want to see a msg if the post have success, but the Input::get('some data') not working to me.

this is my controller resume:

public function postContact($params) {
 //if successful
 $msg_params = array(
      'msg_type' => 'success',
      'msg_text' => 'my text to show',
  );

  return redirect()->back()->withInput($msg_params);
}

But in the contact.blade.php this not working:

@if(isset($msg_type))
<div class="alert">{{ $msg_text }}</div>
@endif

The variables not exits...

I don´t want use flash data here, because contact.blade is a module of another external app laravel and can't share sessions.

What is happening here?

Controller

return redirect()->back()->with('success', ['your message,here']);

Blade:

@if (\Session::has('success'))
<div class="alert alert-success">
    <ul>
        <li>{!! \Session::get('success') !!}</li>
    </ul>
</div>
@endif

Because doing a redirect, those variables are set in session. So you may try:

@if(Session::has('msg_type'))
<div class="alert">{{ Session::get('msg_text') }}</div>
@endif

If you don't want to use session variables, then you can use route parameters. You can get the parameters using the Request facade:

@if(Request::has('msg_type'))
<div class="alert">{{ Request::get('msg_text') }}</div>
@endif

If you're redirecting back to the page, Laravel will store the data in the Session. So you need to enter this to show the data:

@if(Session::has('msg_type'))
    <div class="alert">
        {{ Session::get('msg_text') }}
    </div>
@endif

Hope this works!
