Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father

For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.

I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.

O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).

The Lord's Prayer

How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"

Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)

Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)

Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)

Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)

Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)

Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)

on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)

Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)

And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)

As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)

But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)

Amen. (So I hope. So be it).

Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa

Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.

Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.

Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.

Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

[Fr. Doucette: 297] Tue, Aug 11, 2009: "I embrace you all"

"I embrace you all"

Dear Friends,

To live and Die for Christ

Welcome anyone who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions. One person believes that one may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. The one who eats must not despise the one who abstains, and the one who abstains must not pass judgment on the one who eats; for God has welcomed him.

Who are you to pass judgment on someone else’s servant? Before his own master he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. For one person considers one day more important than another, while another person considers all days alike. Let everyone be fully persuaded in his own mind.

Whoever observes the day, observes it for the Lord. Also whoever eats, eats for the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while whoever abstains, abstains for the Lord and gives thanks to God. None of us lives for oneself, and no one dies for oneself. For if we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord; so then, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s.

For this is why Christ died and came to life, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living. Why then do you judge your brother? Or you, why do you look down on your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written: “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bend before me, and every tongue shall give praise to God. So then each of us shall give an account of himself to God. Romans 14:1-12

Below is the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,

Accept every person even those who are weak in faith. They might have strange opinions and believe that only vegetables are good for him or her. They might prefer Friday instead of Monday or store food because they think the end of the world is near. You should not take that into account for they are only opinions. What is important is to believe in Me, their Savior, and follow what I have taught them.

Do not judge your brother or sister. Accept each person with love and be kind to each one. Do not judge and you will not be judged. Judgment brings condemnation upon you because you do not know the person interiorly. Only God knows the person completely and so He alone can judge. Live, My dear friends, only for Me. You belong to Me so in everything you do, do it for Me and you will be rewarded. So, whether you live or die, remember you belong to Me. Put your faith into practice every day by your prayers, your good work and by going to Mass often and receiving Me in the Eucharist as often as possible. Do not follow the ways of the world because it rejects Me. Seek your Savior every day and I will help you. I embrace you all.

Father Melvin

[Fr. Doucette: 298] Wed, Aug 12, 2009: "Love your brothers and sisters"

Wednesday, August 12, 2009

"Love your brothers and sisters"

Dear Friends,

Patience and Self-denial

We who are strong ought to put up with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves; let each of us please our neighbor for the good, for building up. For Christ did not please himself; but as it is written, The insults of those who insult you fall upon me. For whatever was written previously was written for our instruction, that by endurance and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus, that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

God’s Fidelity and Mercy

Welcome one another, then, as Christ welcomed you, for the glory of God. For I say that Christ became a minister of the circumcised to show God’s truthfulness, to confirm the promises to the patriarchs, but so that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written:

Therefore, I will praise you among the Gentiles and sing praises to your name. And again it says: Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people. And again: Praise the Lord all your Gentiles, and let all the peoples praise him. And again Isaiah says, The root of Jesse shall come, raised up to rule the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles hope. Romans 15:1-12

Here is the message of Our Lord addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,

I came on earth for the salvation of all people in all the nations of the world. My death on the cross is the sacrifice accepted by the Father to take away your sins and to bring you into the Kingdom I established for you. What you have to do is this: to believe in Me, your Savior, and to repent of all your sins and to confess them to a priest for your absolution.

You are to glorify the Father, the Creator of all the people on earth, and to thank Him for all that He has given you. You are to pray and to help those of little faith that they too may grow in their faith and love of Me. Endure till the end and you will be rewarded with life eternal in heaven. Love your brothers and sisters and pray for them.

Message from Our Blessed Mother to Carlos Lopez August 5,2009

August 5, 2009 St. Bruno’s Church, San Bruno, CA

Dear little children, Praised be Jesus!

I come this night to invite you to pray more, to continue to pray without ceasing. I come to ask you to pray for the peace of the world and for the peace of this nation. Pray for the peace in your hearts; pray for peace to dwell in yourselves.

Little children, my sadness is great at seeing that there are many of my chosen ones who are leaving and abandoning me. Are you my little ones, also going to abandon me?

O my beloved ones, when Jesus comes, what kind of home are you going to build for Him? In many of my chosen ones there still exists rejection, lies, jealousy, insincerity, infidelity and sin. How can you build a good home if it is still not possible for many of you to live in peace among one another?

O my little ones, I beg you now – pray, pray, pray and unite yourselves more than ever in a perfect way to me. If you do, I will teach you to build that worthy and perfect home so that when Jesus comes, He will be able to come and dwell in your hearts.

My children, stop hating, stop talking bad about each other, stop sinning with impure passions that darken your lives and minds and do not allow your hearts to obtain the good and love.

Pray, pray, pray with humility. Pray with love. Pray in peace and you will see that the Holy Spirit will come to dwell in your souls and hearts with strength and love.

Thank you for having accepted my invitation of peace and my message of this night. I give my motherly blessing to my priests and deacon who helped me this night and I leave you within my Immaculate Heart. May the peace of God be always with all of you.

In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Message to June Sept.25,2006

MY NAME IS JUNE I AM 75 YEARS OLD I HAVE HAD LOCUTIONS FOR 12 YEARS. FROM JESUS, OUR BLESSED MOTHER, ST.THERESA LITTLE FLOWER, PADRE PIO, POPE JOHN PAUL, ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL. I OFFER YOU A MESSAGE FROM PADRE PIO.

9/25/06

June it is I Padre Pio. Well, now little friend we can talk but maybe for just a little while. June when you take the Eucharist today and you will for certain hold it gently in your hand as if you are holding a new born baby, cradle it in the palm of your hand then gently place it in your mouth. It is to be taken with so much love.

I see people gobble it lit it's a piece of hard bread crunching it. Gently June so very gently let it begin to melt in your must like chocolate its pretend sweetness is love o the body and blood of Jesus, your Savior, of the worlds Savior.

It's a reward of sorts June to come to his table of plenty and consume his body and blood. All the love in the world that is offered does not compare what is given with the love ot Eucharist that flows trhough it.

One thing I cannot tolerate is people rushing out of church right after communion. People do not realize what a insult that is. Only excuse if they are suddenly ill. I wish I could drag them back to their seat by the nape of their neck and give them a strong tongue lashing they would never do this inult to our Savior again.

It is so stupid June just to get out of church and beat people out of the parking lot. There is no respect here June it just drives me crazy. Father Steve mentions this and other priest but people continue to do this insult to our Savior.

They are not setting a good example to the little children who have just made first communion and go back to church and witness this. I wish I could lock the doors until the masses are ended. Sometimes June free will is not a good thing. I see you are wanted in the next room. I will talk to you another time. Prasie Jesus always. PIO.

Jesus Tells Us It Is A Time For

Today I spent time alone with Jesus in adoration and prayed for all with special needs and intentions, including my own. After making small offerings to Jesus and Mary, I prayed and read from our church book where people ask questions on our faith/religion and the answers are typed and placed within the book. Answers are obtained from the Vatican readings and our church.

On my knees I prayed and asked Jesus Speak Lord (always if it be His will), Your servant listens Jesus responded saying, My child Eileen, the time is soon approaching when the opportunity for repentance will come to an end. Those who have remained in Me will be comforted while others will be stricken with fear! Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.

Message to June August 28, 2000

THIS MESSAGE AND OTHER I GIVE TO THE ROSARY GROUP THAT CAME TO MY HOUSE. JUNE

Come, little children, let me show you the way, the way to Jesus who only wants your love and undying devotion. Do you not wish to go to heaven, where there is not hate or malice, only love? We prepared a home for you to come and fill it with love. Heaven is a place of great beauty and love.

Do you not seek this place where flowers grow everywhere and the angel sing freely for your enjoyment? Do not leave an empty house in heaven.

Everyone that is born has a house in heaven. You're the one who holds the key to your door. Do not let it rust and decay. Keep the key to your door. Do not let it rust and decay. Keep the key close to your heart where Jesus is. The key will remain gold, my child, as long as you love my Son and keep his Commandments.

Carry this key with you. Do not let it fall from your hands, because if you do, your house will remain empty and you will never know how beautiful a house you can own. Your house will be decorated with love and laughter and joy beyond measure. It is ready and waiting for you. Feel free to enter as long as you hold the key and it remains gold.

Then God the Father,

"Dearest children, when a person dies, their soul is controlled by the ONE they followed or honored on earth. I gave you freewill which is yours till death. It is NOT the deceased soul that bothers you but satan who directs him. Remember all hell is loosed.

Evil IS EVERYWHERE. His control IS magnetic! Follow Me and he will bother you, tormented you day and night. Stay with Me! Don't give up for if you do hell's torment will be yours FOREVER! Things will change for I am is control of all- - -everything. Although times will get worse, the end of this sinful era IS in sight (My time only)!

Be totally prepared in body, mind AND spirit!

I envelope you in My love! Will you accept it?

Will you remain faithful to your One, True, and Only God?

Magnetize yourself to ME!

I love you!

I will NEVER forget My own!!!"

The Rosary Solves All Problems

Regarding the Holy Rosary, Sister Lucia (the lone surviving seer of Fatima) speaking to Father Fuentes in the December 26, 1957 interview said:

"Look, Father, the Most Holy Virgin in these last times in which we live has given new efficacy in the recitation of the Holy Rosary.

She has given this efficacy to such an extent that there is no problem, no matter how difficult it is, whether temporal or above all spiritual, in the personal life of each one of us, of our families, of the families in the world, or of the religious communities, or even of the life of peoples and nations that cannot be solved by the Rosary.

There is no problem, I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we cannot solve by the prayer of the Holy Rosary. With the Holy Rosary, we will save ourselves. We will sanctify ourselves. We will console Our Lord and obtain the salvation of many souls."

St. Maximilian Mary Kolbe, Priest, Martyr, Poland (1894-1941)—Feast, Aug. 14
St. Maximilian—an ardent proponent of Adoration—wrote, "He remains among us until the end of the world. He dwells on so many altars, though so often offended and profaned."

Saturday, Eve of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven:

"My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my savior" (Lk 1:46-47). "O glorious Mother Mary . . . consumed with the desire to be united with thy Divine Son in Heaven, Thy soul departed from Thy body and united itself to Him, Who, out of the excessive love He bore for Thee, His Mother, whose virginal body was His first tabernacle, took that body into Heaven, and there, amidst the acclaims of the angels and saints, reinfused into it thy soul" (Charles V. Lacey).

Mary is assumed into Heaven and Her Heart is made forever one with the Heart of Jesus. These two Hearts beat as one. Where Jesus is, there Mary is also. Blessed Mother Mary is called Our Lady of The Most Blessed Sacrament. We pray for union with The Sacred Eucharistic Heart of Jesus! We ask Our Blessed Mother Mary to pray for us. (From our August 2004 "Could you not watch one hour with Me?" Newsletter)

"Will you remain cold and indifferent? No! If there are societies for the spreading of evil, you will form a society for the spreading of good, a society of adoration . . . . And how often have I repeated it, nothing short of perpetual [Eucharistic] adoration will start a conflagration . . . . Never should Our Lord find Himself alone here" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).

Mother Teresa -
In the silence of the heart, God speaks and you have to listen. Then in the fullness of your heart, because it is full of God, full of love, full of compassion, full of faith, your mouth will speak. Both humility and prayer grow from an ear, mind, and tongue that have lived in silence with God, for in the silence of the heart God speaks.

Meditations by Padre Pio -
We must not stop doing good even if it scandalizes the Pharisees (CE,37)

Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
A kind person is one of a kind!
"Because kindness is related to love, it follows that the kind person loves another not for the pleasure the other person gives, nor because the other person can do us a kindness in return, but because the other person is loveable in himself. The basic reason why everyone is lovable is because God made him."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -

October 2, 1936, the First Friday of the month. After Holy Communion, I suddenly saw the Lord Jesus, who spoke these words to me: Now I know that it is not for the graces or gifts that you love me, but because My will is dearer to you than life. That is why I am uniting myself with you so intimately as with no other creature. (707)
At that moment, Jesus disappeared. My soul was filled with the presence of God. I know that the gaze of the Mighty One rests upon me.

I plunged myself completely in the joy that flows from God. I continued throughout the whole day without interruption, thus immersed in God. In the evening, I fell as if into a faint and a strange sort of agony.

My love wants to equal the love of the Mighty One. It is drawn to Him so vehemently that it is impossible, without some special grace from God, to bear the vastness of such a grace in this life. But I see clearly that Jesus himself is sustaining me and strengthening me and making me capable of communing with Him. In all this, the soul is particularly active. (708)

It sometimes happens, while I am listening to the meditation, that one word puts me in very close union with the Lord, and I no longer know what Father is saying. I know that I am close to the most merciful Heart of Jesus; my whole spirit is entirely plunged in Him, and in one moment I learn more than during long hours of intellectual inquiry and meditation. These are sudden lights which permit me to know things as God sees them, regarding matters of both the interior and the exterior world. (733)

These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.

AUGUST 15 - THE ASSUMPTION OF OUR LADY

On this feast day in 1985, Our Lady said :

Dear children, today I am blessing you and I wish to tell you that I love you and that I urge you to live my messages. Today I am blessing you with the solemn blessing that the Almighty grants me (Weekly Message August 15, 1985).

And from the prophet Isaiah, almost as if he were speaking of the Assumption :

Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
For darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the Lord will arise upon you, and his glory will appear over you. Isaiah 60 :1-2

Reflection:

Today we celebrate the Assumption of Our Lady, body and soul, into heaven. Jesus preserved his mother's body form the corruption and the crowning glory of the human race.

In honoring the Blessed Virgin the Lord honors us all, for she too was human; her glory is reflected upon all her children. Our oneness with Mary is indicative of our awesome and mysteries unity with all people of all ages. Fr. Jozo teaches that we are not « beside » each other, but rather are « inside » one another. Our unity even embraces God himself, who became one with us through the incarnation :

I do not pray for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their word, that all may be one as you Father, are in me, and I in you; I pray that they may be one in us, that the world may believe that you sent me (Jn 17 :20-21).

In the mystery of our oneness we can perceive how our actions and prayer have a ripple effect on the entire Body of Christ; how our virtue as well as our sin has an effect far beyond ourselves.

Today we rejoice in the reflected glory of our Mother's Assumption. May the solemn blessing that she imparts to us on this feast bring us to a new awareness of our sacred communion with God and with one another.

Application :

As a gift to Our Lady today, offer her your rosary for her special intentions.

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 14 - DO WORKS OF MERCY

"Nothing was conferred on the apostles apart from Peter, but several things were conferred upon Peter apart from the apostles."
Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum

Jesus Christ, pierce my soul with your love so that I may always long for you alone, who are the bread of angels and the fulfillment of the soul's deepest desires. May my heart always hunger for you, so that my soul may be filled with the sweetness of your presence."

St. Maximilian Mary Kolbe Feast Day: August 14, 2006

(1894-1941)

"I don't know what's going to become of you!" How many parents have said that? Maximilian Mary Kolbe's reaction was, "I prayed very hard to Our Lady to tell me what would happen to me. She appeared, holding in her hands two crowns, one white, one red. She asked if I would like to have them—one was for purity, the other for martyrdom. I said, `I choose both.' She smiled and disappeared." After that he was not the same.

He entered the minor seminary of the Conventual Franciscans in Lvív (then Poland, now Ukraine), near his birthplace, and at 16 became a novice. Though he later achieved doctorates in philosophy and theology, he was deeply interested in science, even drawing plans for rocket ships.

Ordained at 24, he saw religious indifference as the deadliest poison of the day. His mission was to combat it. He had already founded the Militia of the Immaculata, whose aim was to fight evil with the witness of the good life, prayer, work and suffering. He dreamed of and then founded Knight of the Immaculata,, a religious magazine under Mary's protection to preach the Good News to all nations.

For the work of publication he established a "City of the Immaculata"—Niepokalanow—which housed 700 of his Franciscan brothers. He later founded one in Nagasaki, Japan. Both the Militia and the magazine ultimately reached the one-million mark in members and subscribers. His love of God was daily filtered through devotion to Mary.

In 1939 the Nazi panzers overran Poland with deadly speed. Niepokalanow was severely bombed. Kolbe and his friars were arrested, then released in less than three months, on the feast of the Immaculate Conception.

In 1941 he was arrested again. The Nazis' purpose was to liquidate the select ones, the leaders. The end came quickly, in Auschwitz three months later, after terrible beatings and humiliations.

A prisoner had escaped. The commandant announced that 10 men would die. He relished walking along the ranks. "This one. That one." As they were being marched away to the starvation bunkers, Number 16670 dared to step from the line.

"I would like to take that man's place. He has a wife and children." "Who are you?" "A priest." No name, no mention of fame. Silence. The commandant, dumbfounded, perhaps with a fleeting thought of history, kicked Sergeant Francis Gajowniczek out of line and ordered Father Kolbe to go with the nine.

In the "block of death" they were ordered to strip naked and the slow starvation began in darkness. But there was no screaming—the prisoners sang. By the eve of the Assumption four were left alive. The jailer came to finish Kolbe off as he sat in a corner praying. He lifted his fleshless arm to receive the bite of the hypodermic needle. It was filled with carbolic acid. They burned his body with all the others. He was beatified in 1971 and canonized in 1982.

Comment:

Father Kolbe's death was not a sudden, last-minute act of heroism. His whole life had been a preparation. His holiness was a limitless, passionate desire to convert the whole world to God. And his beloved Immaculata was his inspiration.

Quote:

"Courage, my sons. Don't you see that we are leaving on a mission? They pay our fare in the bargain. What a piece of good luck! The thing to do now is to pray well in order to win as many souls as possible. Let us, then, tell the Blessed Virgin that we are content, and that she can do with us anything she wishes" (Maximilian Mary Kolbe, when first arrested).

Mother Teresa -
The fullness of our heart is expressed in our eyes, in our touch, in what we write, in what we say, in the way we walk, the way we receive, the way we need. That is the fullness of our heart expressing itself in many different ways. Listen in silence, because if your heart is full of other things you cannot hear the voice of God

Padre Pio - The Lord allows us to discover who we are a little at a time. In fact, it is inconceivable to me how anyone with intelligence and a conscience can become proud (GB,57).

Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
Embracing the etimology of kindness

"The word 'kindness' is derived from kindred or kin, and therefore implies an affection which we bear naturally to those who are our flesh and blood. The original and archetypal kindness is that of a parent for a child and a child for a parent, an idea which is preserved in the German language where Kind means 'child.' Gradually the word gained in extension until it embraced anyone whom we are to treat as a relative. Unkindness is therefore unnaturalness."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
Once, when my confessor told me to say "Glory be to the Father" as my penance, it took me a very long time; and I began many times, but did not finish, because my spirit became united with God, and I could not stick to the prayer. Quite frequently, I am unwittingly enveloped by God's omnipotence and become entirely plunged in Him through love, and then I do not know what is going on around me.

When I told my confessor that this short prayer often takes very much of my time and that sometimes I cannot even finish it, he told me to say it right away, there, at the confessional. However, my spirit became immersed in God and, in spite of my efforts, I could not think as I wished.

And so the confessor said, "Please repeat after me." I repeated every word, but while I was pronouncing each word, my spirit would be steeped in the Person I was naming. (577)

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.

AUGUST 14 - DO WORKS OF MERCY

The Virgin calls us to good works today:

Dear children, today I invite you to do works of mercy out of love for me and your brothers and sisters. May all that you do for others to done with great joy and humility before God, I am with you and day after day I offer your sacrifices and prayers to God for the salvation of the world (Monthly Message November 25, 1990).

In Matthew's gospel, Jesus revels how we will be judged:

Then the king will say to those at right hand, "Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing. I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me"(Mt 25:34-36).

Reflection:

These from the Second Vatican Council ring with the same urgency as those in today's gospel.

Since there are so many people in this world afflicted with hunger, this sacred Council urges all, both individuals and governments, to remember the saying of the Fathers: "Feed the man dying of hunger, because if you have not fed him, you have killed him."

To be our brother's keeper is not optional the Christian, but a mandate from Christian, but a mandate from Christ. We are further challenged by Pope Paul VI in his in his encyclical, The Progress of Peoples:

Am I really doing all I can to help the poor and hungry? Am I prepared to pay more taxes in order that the government can do more for development? Am I prepared to pay more in the shops for goods imported from abroad so that the people who produce these goods are paid a decent wage?

Application:

This week, make an extra effort to help those in need, either through personal service or material support.

Also, check your parish bulletin and diocesan newspaper for opportunities to help with service projects or social justice activities that need volunteer assistance

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 13 - THERE ARE SOULS IN PURGATORY

Bl. Kateri Tekakwitha, Virgin, North America (1656-1680)?Feast, July 14
Lily of the Eucharist and Lily of the Mohawks. Born in Auriesville, NY, Bl.
Kateri awoke early every morning to journey through the woods to the Chapel to
visit and receive Jesus in the Holy Eucharist.

She waited outside, even in
the bitter cold of winter, until the chapel opened. A consecrated virgin, Bl.
Kateri prayed, "I offer my soul to Christ the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament."
She devoted her life to prayer, penance and the care of the sick and elderly.
Her litany reads: "Kateri, who loved Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, pray for us."

Mother Teresa -

And this listening and this speaking is what prayer is meant to be: oneness with God, oneness with Jesus.

Meditations by Padre Pio - Always be faithful to God in observing the promises you made Him, and pay no attention to the mocking of the foolish. Know that the Saints were always mocked by the world and the worldly, but even so they placed the world and its maxims under their feet. May 31 The field of battle between God and Satan is the human soul. This is where it takes place every moment of our lives.

The soul must give free access to our Lord and be completely fortified by Him with every kind of weapon; His light must illuminate it to fight the darkness of error; he must put on Jesus Christ, His truth and justice, the shield of faith, the word of God to overcome such powerful enemies. To put on Jesus Christ we must die to ourselves.

Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

Strange metamorphosis as strangers behind the wheel!

"Many people who are very kind in their own homes and offices can become very unkind and selfish once they get behind the steering wheel of an automobile. This is probably due to the fact that in their own home they are known; in the automobile they have the advantage of anonymity and hence can be almost brutal without the fear of discovery. To be kind out of fear of others thinking we are unkind is not real kindness, but rather a disguised form of egotism."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -

O Holy Trinity, Eternal God, my spirit is drowned in Your beauty. The ages are as nothing in Your sight. You are always the same. Oh, how great is Your majesty. Jesus, why do You conceal Your majesty, why have You left Your heavenly throne and dwelt among us? The Lord answered me, My daughter, love has brought Me here, and love keeps Me here.

My daughter, if you knew what great merit and reward is earned by one act of pure love for Me, you would die of joy. I am saying this that you may constantly unite yourself with Me through love, for this is the goal of the life of your soul. This act is an act of the will. Know that a pure soul is humble. When you lower and empty yourself before My majesty, I then pursue you with My graces and make use of My omnipotence to exalt you. (576)

AUGUST 13 - THERE ARE SOULS IN PURGATORY

To the visionary Mirjana, regarding purgatory:

There are souls in purgatory who pray ardently to God, but for whom no relative or friend prays on earth. But God allows them to benefit from the prayers of other people (First Years January 10, 1983).

And in Psalm 73, the author expresses confidence in God, both now and in the hereafter:

Nevertheless I am continually with you;

You hold my right hand.

You guide me with your counsel,

And afterward you will receive me with honor.

Whom have I in heaven but you?

And there is nothing on earth that I desire other than you.

My flesh and my heart may fail,

But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

Psalm 73:23-26

Reflection:

Through the dogma of the communion of saints, the church teaches that the living can actively help those who have died through prayer, sacrifice, and especially the Mass," the greatest prayer, "as Mary says elsewhere.

It is common practice to arrange for Masses to be offered for loved ones, often on the anniversary of their death, but any time is appropriate. Your Parish secretary or priest can assist you in this; Mass intentions are normally announced in the church bulletin, unless you wish otherwise ( it is customary, through not required, to give an offering).

Application:

Today, pray for the souls in purgatory, especially the forgotten dead.

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 12 - PREPARE YOURSELVES IN PRAYER

"No more than one visit to the Blessed Sacrament is sometimes necessary to
change immediately the dispositions of a heart and to cause the sweetest repose
and full contentment to succeed the greatest trouble and sorrow. Many have
approached the Blessed Sacrament languishing and overwhelmed with grief, and
have returned replenished with strength, courage, and even alacrity and joy"
(Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen).

Mother Teresa -

God speaks in the silence of the heart, and we listen. And then we speak to God from the fullness of our heart, and God listens.

Meditations by Padre Pio - May the Heart of Jesus be the goal of all your inspirations. (ASN, 44)

- Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

Speak up for virtue, clamp down on vice!

"The greatest responsibility falls on religious leaders whose message ought to be the message many want from politicians - the clarion call to restraint on evil influences and the showing forth of altruism and love of God."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -

Jesus, when You come to me in Holy Communion, You Who together with the Father and the Holy Spirit have deigned to dwell in the little heaven of my heart, I try to keep You company throughout the day, I do not leave You alone for even a moment. Although I am in the company of other people or with our wards, my heart is always united to Him. When I am asleep I offer Him every beat of my heart; when I awaken I immerse myself in Him without saying a word.

When I awaken I adore the Holy Trinity for a short while and thank God for having deigned to give me yet another day, that the mystery of the incarnation of His Son may once more be repeated in me, and that once again His sorrowful Passion may unfold before my eyes. I then try to make it easier for Jesus to pass through me to other souls. I go everywhere with Jesus; His presence accompanies me everywhere. (486)

When I entered the chapel, once again the majesty of God overwhelmed me. I felt that I was immersed in God, totally immersed in Him and penetrated by Him, being aware of how much the heavenly Father loves us. Oh, what great happiness fills my heart from knowing God and the divine life! It is my desire to share this happiness with all people. I cannot keep this happiness locked in my own heart alone, for His flames burn me and cause my bosom and my entrails to burst asunder.

I desire to go throughout the whole world and speak to souls about the great mercy of God. Priests, help me in this; use the strongest words [at your disposal] to proclaim His mercy, for every word falls short of how merciful He really is. (491)

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

AUGUST 12 - PREPARE YOURSELVES IN PRAYER

On this day in 1988, in anticipation of the Assumption, Our Lady gave the following message to Ivan's prayer group:

Dear children, your Mother asks you to pray as much as you can during these two days. Prepare yourselves in prayer for the feast to come. Dear children, I would like to tell you to bring peace to other during these days. Encourage others to change. You cannot, dear children, give peace if you, yourselves, are not at inner peace. Tonight I give you peace. Give peace to others ! Dear children, be a light that shines.

I ask you pray the Glorious Mysteries when you go back to your homes tonight. Pray them in front of the cross (Visionary Prayer Group Message December 12, 1988).

The peace of prayer often comes in times of quiet and solitude. From Psalm 131:

O Lord, my heart is not lifted up, my eyes are not raised too high;

I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me.

But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its mother; my soul is like the weaned child that is with me. Psalm 131:1-2

Reflection:

As the Madonna says today, prayer is the means to great love and peace. But if often requires solitude and quiet so that the tranquil presence of God's Spirit can be felt. From a poem by James Dillet Freeman:

Prayer is a state of being, like snowfall At night. As in the silence of yourself your pray, All thing particular, familiar, small Or large, dissolve and slowly melt away. Only the white perfection of your prayer Is there, enveloping all things, until The oneness of the One is everywhere. Nothing remains the same only the still, Only the peace of being, not so much Filling space as obliterating space, An emptiness and allness, like the touch Of snowfall in the night upon your face. But when your prayer ends and you rise and go, Your world shines new around you, like new snow.

Application:

Today, as the Virgin asks, begin preparing for the Assumption through quiet time in prayer; seek a place of solitude and rest in God's peace.

SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH

"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful
guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of
God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father
through His Divine Son who died on the cross and
rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the
Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain
from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here
