The Prayer of Jesus (continued)

Dear Friends,

When Jesus had said this, he raised his eyes to heaven and said, ... "I revealed your name to those whom you gave me out of the world. They belonged to you, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. Now they know that everything you gave me is from you, because the words you gave to me I have given to them, and they accepted them and truly understood that I came from you, and they have believed that you sent me. I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for the ones you have given me, because they are yours, and everything of mine is yours and everything of yours is mine, and I have been glorified in them. And now I will no longer be in the world, but they are in the world, while I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one just as we are." (Passage from the Gospel of St. John 17:1a, 6-11)


Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Rev. Melvin Doucette. Jesus spoke to him these words,

"I love you and I have prayed for you to My Father, My dear brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living in the world. Before My death, I prayed for all the Apostles that the Father would keep them close to Him and close to Me too. You believe that I came from the Father and after My resurrection I returned to Him in heaven. I especially prayed that you may be one. I established only one Church and I want everyone who believes to belong to My Church. Those who have founded other churches have done a scandalous thing. Repent and return to the Church I founded on St. Peter. I bless you all."

Medjugorje Day By Day June 07 - LOVE EACH OTHER

St. Mary Magdalen di Pazzi, Carmelite Nun, Incorrupt (1566-1607)—Feast, May 25
A mystic, St. Mary Magdalen, wrote: "O Sisters, if we would only comprehend the fact that while the Eucharistic Species remain within us, Jesus is there and working in us inseparably with the Father and the Holy Spirit and therefore the whole Holy Trinity is there."

Mother Teresa
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow has not yet come; we must live each day as if it were our last so that when God calls us we are ready, and prepared, to die with a clean heart.

Meditations by Padre Pio -
Do not be surprised at your weakness, but acknowledge what you are, and blush at your infidelity towards God, then confide in Him and abandon yourselves tranquilly in the arms of the Heavenly Father, like a child in the arms of its mother (AP).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen
It's no Mystery that Mystery, such as the Mystery of the Holy Trinity, transcends all reason

"Almost all of us are willing to learn, either from the book of nature, or from the lips of others. But some of us are unwilling to accept mysteries or the revelation of God, or wisdom which transcends both the power of nature and the learning of others. Mystery, however, does not mean an idea which is opposed to reason, but one which transcends it."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
I made an hour of adoration in thanksgiving for the graces which had been granted me and for my illness. Illness also is a great grace. I have been ill for four months, but I do not recall having wasted so much as a minute of it. All has been for God and souls; I want to be faithful to Him everywhere.

During this adoration, I realized the utter care and goodness that Jesus has been lavishing upon me and the protection He has given me against all evil. I thank You especially, Jesus, for visiting me in my solitude, and I thank You also for inspiring my superiors to send me for this treatment. Give them, Jesus, the omnipotence of Your blessing and compensate them for all the losses incurred because of me. (1062)

JUNE 7 - LOVE EACH OTHER
The Madonna speaks of loving one another:

Dear children, thank you for every prayer. Try to pray continuously, and do not forget that I love you and that I desire all of you to love each other. (Locutionists Jelena & Mirijana May 26, 1984).

One of the fruits of love is reconciliation. In his letter to Philemon, Paul acts as a reconciler between this wealthy Christian and his runaway slave, Onesimus

For this reason, thought I am bold enough in Christ to command you to do your duty, yet I would rather appeal to you on the basis of love-and I, Paul, do this as an old man, and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus. I am appealing to you for my child, Onesimus, whose father I have become during my imprisonment.

So if you consider me your partner, welcome him as you would welcome me. If he has wronged you in any way, or owes you anything, charge that to my account (Phlm 1:8-10,17-18).

Reflection:

According to Fr. Slavko Barbaric, reconciliation is a fundamental process that God intends every soul to experience. It is a means of freeing oneself from inner ties and chains, of tearing down the walls and barriers that we have erected through sin and hate.

"Reconciliation means simply accepting oneself and others as we are," he says, "and starting where we are now to tear down the walls that separate us from God and one another."

He continues, "Reconciliation also means to let go of hasty judgments of one another and to accept that we are all weak and limited in many ways." It means to deeply experience our common origin from God, that we are truly one in him.

Application:

This week, made an overture to someone your have resented or disliked in the past. Ask Our Lady to be with you during this encounter.

Medjugorje Day By Day June 08 - TESTIFY THROUGH YOUR LIVES


"Visit the Blessed Sacrament often; there is your true life" (St. Paul of the Cross).

Mother Teresa
When you know how much God is in love with you the you can only live your life radiating that love.

Meditations by Padre Pio -
Valiantly fight temptations with strong souls, and fight along with the Supreme Chief. When you fall, do not stay there prostrated in body and spirit. Humble yourself greatly but without being discouraged. Lower yourself without degrading yourself. Wash your imperfections and falls with sincere tears of contrition, without lacking trust in divine goodness, which will always be greater than your ingratitude. Propose to make amends without being presumptuous, but your strength must be in God alone. Finally, confess sincerely that if God were not your beast-plate and shield, you would be imprudently pierced with every kind of sin (Letters III, p. 702).

When you know how much God is in love with you the you can only live your life radiating that love.


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
A closer look can reveal wonders

"Mystery is like a telescope of the eye. The instrument does not destroy vision, but opens new worlds hitherto unrevealed. A proud person might ask why he or she should believe that there is anything else in the world to see or know, except that which one's natural powers can compass. Pride then precludes the knowledge of other worlds."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
God of great mercy, who deigned to send us Your only-begotten Son as the greatest proof of Your fathomless love and mercy, You do not reject sinners; but in Your boundless mercy You have opened for them also Your treasures, treasures from which they can draw abundantly, not only justification, but also all the sanctity that a soul can attain. Father of great mercy, I desire that all hearts turn with confidence to Your infinite mercy. No one will be justified before You if he is not accompanied by Your unfathomable mercy. When You reveal the mystery of Your mercy to us, there will not be enough of eternity to properly thank You for it. (1122)
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.
JUNE 8 - TESTIFY THROUGH YOUR LIVES

The Gospa speaks of living the messages of Medjugorje:

Dear children, today I invite you to live in humility all the messages which I have given you. Do not become arrogant in living the messages and boast that, "I am living the messages." If you live and bear my messages with your heart, everyone will sense it so that words, which serve only those who do not obey, will not be necessary. For you dear children, it is necessary to testify through your lives (Weekly Messages September 20, 1985).

Paul also expresses concern about those who merely speak of faith, but do not live it:

But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills and I will find out not the talk of these arrogant people but their power. For the kingdom of God depends not on talk but on power (1 Cor 4:19-20).

Reflection:

We have all met people who have talked a lot about faith, but that was all it was-talk. They may know all the right words to say, but their lives are not examples of Christian living. Today Paul says that the kingdom of God is to be lived, not just discussed. There is a big difference between knowing the right words and living them out.

This is the message of Our Lady as wee: "It is necessary to live and testify by your lives."

Application:

Today, pray simply for the grace to "live in humility all the messages which I have given you."


Medjugorje Day By Day June 05 - BE RECONCILED

US Bishop: It is a grave (mortal) sin to Vote for Pro-Abortion Politicians
Pro-abortion politicians and those who vote for them may not receive communion.

COLORADO SPRINGS, May 14, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The recent trend of Bishops speaking out with strength on the responsibilities of Catholic politicians continues in the United States. Bishop Michael J. Sheridan Colorado Springs has just raised the bar even further by emphatically stating that Catholics may not vote for pro-abortion .

"Any Catholic politicians who advocate for abortion, for illicit stem cell research or for any form of euthanasia ipso facto place themselves outside full communion with the Church and so jeopardize their salvation. Any Catholics who vote for candidates who stand for abortion, illicit stem cell research or euthanasia suffer the same fateful consequences. It is for this reason that these Catholics, whether candidates for office or those who would vote for them, may not receive Holy Communion until they have recanted their positions and been reconciled with God and the Church in the Sacrament of Penance."

The Bishop noted that while there may be many issues to consider when voting, the right to life "trumps all other issues."

Concluding, Bishop Sheridan calls Catholics to pray for "those politicians who claim to be Catholic yet continue to oppose the law of God" and also affirms his "brother bishops who have proclaimed the truth of these critical matters and who have admonished those Catholic politicians who place themselves at odds with the truth of God."


MESSAGE via HIS unworthy servant - June 1, 2011




Received via inner locution from Jesus - June 1, 2011


JESUS:


My children of the world, remove those blindfolds from your eyes; instead of seeing all the faults of others begin with changing your own life. Are you the saint I expect you to be after all the many messages We have been giving you and all the additional graces? Do not imitate the Pharisees but the humble sinner who stood at a distance. Examine your conscience daily and not for the sins of others but for your own sins, and ask for forgiveness with a repentant heart and for the graces needed to amend your life.


My little ones, truly I tell you, you still have a long way to go before attaining your goal of becoming a saint. My little ones, open your hearts to the misery of others and stop constantly seeking to please self: imitate Mother Teresa in your daily life.


Come, My little ones, Heaven awaits you with all its glory.


Signed
His unworthy servant

"I am your Jesus, born Incarnate."


"Behold My Sacred Heart - Burning Ember of Divine Love. How I long to send sparks of this Love into every heart! If souls could only realize that I never abandon them. Every cross carries with it a rose of grace. It is through surrender to the Divine Will in every moment that the eyes of the soul open and recognize the grace."


"Prayer is the solution to all of life's problems. It is through prayer the Holy Spirit leads and directs. Prayer always supports the most loving solutions, but at times these solutions appear to be the most difficult. It is only through surrender to the Divine Will your burdens are made easy and light."

Pro-Life Rosary and Intentions
Requested by Our Lady June 4, 2011 - A.M.


Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus."


Our Lady appears holding a rosary made of roses. She says: "I have come to help you see that many parts make up the whole. When all these roses or Hail Mary’s are put together, they can equal one prayer and one prayer intention."


Then Blessed Mother shows me a picture which outlines intentions on the rosary.


"I invite you to see that each of these intentions is pro-life:"
"You seek My protection over the unborn."
"You pray for guidance for all involved in the abortion industry, and mothers considering abortion."
"You pray for the conversion of anyone who supports abortion."
"You pray for government leaders who support abortion."
"You pray for any religious leader who does not speak out against abortion."
"So you see how all the parts make up a pro-life rosary."

-------------------------

June 4, 2011 - P.M.

Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus."


"My Son graciously allows His Most Sacred Heart to be touched by those who pray the Rosary of the Unborn from the heart. For this reason, and because He has much compassion on the human condition these days, He allowed Me to visit you earlier today with the meditations or intentions I gave you."


"In the First Mystery, you pray for My protection. This can be My Motherly protection over the unborn."


"The Second Mystery invokes My guidance which would be inspiration for mothers not to abort their babies, government leaders to oppose abortion and religious leaders to act against it."


"The Third Mystery is for the conversion of souls. No one can be converted or should believe in his conversion if he still supports abortion."


"The Fourth Mystery is for all government leaders. It is paramount that legalized abortion is overturned. The future of the world depends upon it."


"The Fifth Mystery is for all religious leaders to take a stand against abortion. Not to oppose it - is to support abortion."


"My Motherly Heart is intercessor for these needs, My children, when you pray from the heart. I am ever ready to assist you. Pray this way often."

Message of Our Lady of Borg in-Nadur June 1, 2011


http://ladyborginnadur.blogspot.com/


Rosary of 1st June 1, 2011 and Message (P334) Given at Borg in-Nadur


Following the referendum on whether or not to introduce divorce legislation in Malta held on the 28th May and the victory to the ‘yes’ camp, it appears that all the warnings of The Lady have fallen on deaf ears. Contrary to her advice, the majority of the Maltese still decided to take a bold step and place their valued families on a slippery slope.


If one thought that The Lady would change subject and return to the more traditional form of message, it was not to be since a true mother never abandons her beloved children. Her warnings, together with an old promise which she hasn’t forgotten, continued.


During this rosary and the dictation of the message, one could observe Angelik pointing to the tree under the central cross. After the departure of The Lady, Angelik descended the hill and apparently remained in an ecstatic state as he rejoiced, with the members of the Theotokos group seemingly bewildered by his unusual behaviour. However he then slumped onto a chair and returned to his normal.


When it was his turn to address the crowd, Angelik said that from the fifth, which he then corrected to the forth decade of the rosary, until the end of the apparition, he could see that The Lady was crying. The long prologue to the message was left out altogether by Angelik but added later to the official message.


---------------------------------
(P334) Message of June 1, 2011, given at Borg in-Nadur


At a certain moment during the recitation of the rosary, a quantity of cotton-like clouds appeared around the Lady. These clouds then came together and formed one single cloud. The Lady sat on it. She held the rosary-beads in her right hand–just as when the beads are being prayed. At the same time, in her left hand she held a crucifix from its lower wooden end. Jesus appeared to be alive and in great agony.


Suddenly, at the Lady’s feet, on the right side, a serpent appeared. It was about two and a half meters long. At the same instant, on the left side of the Lady, at the same level at which she was seated, there appeared the orb of the world. It rotated slowly. The serpent slithered at the Lady’s feet. Its head was green and streaked with a single red line, while the rest of its body was yellow and red. It then happened that the Lady glanced at the serpent and pounded its head under her right foot. The serpent was enraged. It stuck out its tongue and spat out a yellowish liquid. Several times it tried to strike the earth with its tail, but failed.


As the Lady crushed the serpent’s head, a group of twelve Capuchin Friars and group of twelve Dominican Sisters appeared on her right side. They wore the religious habit of their Orders. To the left of the Lady there appeared a group of twelve diocesan priests and a group of twelve Jesuits. The priests were dressed in black cassocks while the Jesuits wore black cassocks with a black sash around the waist.


The Lady was seated in the middle of a semi-circle that these four groups formed. They gazed at the serpent and at the earth. Using both hands, they all held before them an upturned gleaming sword. A rosary-beads was hanging on every sword.


The Lady wept right through the last decade of the rosary and up to the end of the Salve Regina.


My dear children and my children–the ones of my heart! The words that I speak today are for Fr Hayden and Fr David to pass on to the people.


No one is allowed to kill. No one. Nor may you express anger with your brother. You may not even fight with your brother. And I say it once again: no one may kill. You may not even turn off the (life-support) machines. No one may take the life of another.


Adultery: if you look upon a woman or a man to desire them, you would have already fallen into sin. Not even a thought should enter your mind concerning the husband or wife of another.


Divorce, my children! Divorce, my children! Do not seek it. Do not attempt to live it, not even if the Government were to introduce it through the law of the land. No one is to practice it.


You are not to take false oaths. You are not to lie, or to accuse your brethren.


Flee sin, my children. Flee sin. Do not let it get in your way. One is as guilty of sin as one is aware of its sinfulness, my children.


Indeed, my children and my own little children, I ask you to pass these messages on for me today. Expose them so that the truth may emerge, my children.


And the water from beneath this tree will not take long to start issuing and flowing. Birds are to seek shelter beneath its bows and people are to be healed by the water–as long as you will have faith. Water will emerge up here once the people go through a great conversion. Yes, it will emerge and bring about great wonders. This water is never to be sold.


Thank you for having listened to my call.


Since 21st April 2006, Our Lady has been appearing to Angelik Caruana. These apparitions are being followed by the local Church. Our Lady asserts in her messages that she is being sent by her Son Jesus because He loves humanity and because their hearts are hurt through the many sins being committed. She particularly mentions abortion, divorce, euthanasia, pornography, abuse on children, adultery, bad use of sex and the internet, wars and the shortfalls of the religious.
