THREE OCLOCK PRAYERS

The Miracle Prayer

Lord Jesus, I come before You just as I am. I am sorry for all my sins. I repent of my sins, please forgive me. In Your name, I forgive all others for what they have done against me. I renounce Satan, the evil spirits and all their works. I give You my entire self, Lord Jesus, now and forever. I invite You into my life Jesus. I accept You as my Lord, God and Saviour. Heal me, change me, strengthen me in body, soul and spirit. Come Lord Jesus, cover me with Your Precious Blood and fill me with Your Holy Spirit. I love You Lord Jesus. I Praise You Jesus. I Thank You Jesus. I shall follow You every day of my life. Amen. Mary my Mother, Queen of Peace, all the Angels and Saints, please help me. Amen
Three O'Clock Prayer to the Divine Mercy

You expired, O Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls and an ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us. O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us, I trust in You. Amen
The Chaplet of Divine Mercy

For use with Rosary Beads
One Our Father...One Hail Mary...The Apostles' Creed

On the five large beads of the Rosary: Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

On the ten small beads: For the sake of His sorrowful Passion have mercy on us and on the whole world.

Conclude with (recited three times): Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world
Prayer to the Divine Mercy

O Lord, behold here before You a soul who exists in this world in order to allow You to exercise Your admirable MERCY and manifest it before heaven and earth. Others may glorify You through their faithfulness and perseverance, thus making evident the power of Your grace. How sweet and generous You are to those who are faithful to You!

Nevertheless, I will glorify You by acquainting others of Your goodness to sinners and by reminding them that Your MERCY is above all malice, that nothing can exhaust it, and that no relapse, no matter how shameful or criminal, should allow the sinner to despair of forgiveness.

I have offended You grievously, O Beloved Redeemer, but it would be still worse if I were to offend You by thinking that You were lacking in goodness to forgive me. I would rather He deprive me of everything else than the TRUST I have in Your Mercy.

Should I fall a hundred times or should my crimes be a hundred times worse that they actually are, I would continue to trust in Your MERCY. Amen
Prayer for Mercy for the Dying

O merciful Jesus, lover of souls, I beseech You, by the agony of Your Most Sacred Heart and by the sorrows of Your Immaculate Mother, wash clean in Your Blood the sinners of the whole world who are now in their final agony, but especially those on their way to eternal damnation and who are to die this day. Heart of Jesus who suffered death's agony, I beg You have mercy on these poor souls. Amen.
Prayer for Mercy for the Souls in Purgatory

Eternal Father, I offer You the most precious blood of Your Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in Purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, for those in my own home and within my own family. Amen.
Prayer For A Lonely Soul

Jesus, Friend of a lonely heart, You are my haven, You are my peace. You are my salvation, You are my serenity in moments of struggle and amidst an ocean of doubts. You are the bright ray that lights up the path of my life. You are everything to a lonely soul even though it remains silent. You know the weaknesses and You comfort and heal, sparing us sufferings. Amen.
Divine Mercy Direct Me

Eternal God, Goodness itself, whose mercy is incomprehensible to every intellect, whether human or angelic, help me, your feeble child, to do Your holy will as You make it known to me. I desire nothing but to fulfill God's desires. Lord, here is my soul and my body, my mind and my will, my heart and all my love. Direct me according to Your eternal plan. Amen.
NOVENA TO THE DIVINE MERCY

Jesus, I Trust in You

"...Jesus instructed me to write down and make before the Feast of Mercy. It begins on Good Friday." #1209 (57) of the Diary of Saint Faustina - Divine Mercy in My Soul.

I desire that during these nine days you bring souls to the fount of My mercy, that they may draw there from strength and refreshment and whatever graces they need in the hardships of life and, especially, at the hour of death.

On each day you will bring to My Heart a different group of souls, and you will immerse them in this ocean of My mercy, and I will bring all these souls into the house of My Father. You will do this in this life and in the next. I will deny nothing to any soul whom you will bring to the fount of My mercy. On each day you will beg My Father, on the strength of My bitter Passion, for graces for these souls."

I answered, "Jesus, I do not know how to make this novena or which souls to bring first into Your Most Compassionate Heart." Jesus replied that He would tell me which souls to bring each day into His Heart.
FIRST DAY

Today, bring to Me all mankind, especially all sinners and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. In this way you will console Me in the bitter grief into which the loss of souls plunges Me.

Most Merciful Jesus, whose very nature it is to have compassion on us and to forgive us, do not look upon our sins, but upon the trust which (58) we place in Your infinite goodness. Receive us all into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart, and never let us escape from It. We beg this of You by Your love which unites You to the Father and the Holy Spirit.

Oh omnipotence of Divine Mercy,
Salvation of sinful people,
You are a sea of mercy and compassion;
You aid those who entreat You with humility.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon all mankind and especially upon poor sinners, all enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, show us Your mercy, that we may praise the omnipotence of Your mercy forever and ever. Amen.
SECOND DAY

Today, bring to Me the souls of priests and religious, and immerse them in My unfathomable mercy. It was they who gave Me the strength to endure My bitter Passion. Through them, as through channels, My mercy flows out upon Mankind.

Most Merciful Jesus, from whom comes all that is good, increase Your grace in us, that we may perform worthy works of mercy, and that all who see us may glorify the Father of Mercy who is in heaven.

The fountain of God's love
Dwells in pure hearts,
Bathed in the Sea of Mercy,
Radiant as stars, bright as the dawn.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gave (59) upon the company {of chosen ones} in Your vineyard-- upon the souls of priests and religious, and endow them with the strength of Your blessing. For the love of the Heart of Your Son, in which they are enfolded, impart to them Your power and light, that they may be able to guide others in the way of salvation, and with one voice sing praise to Your boundless mercy for ages without end. Amen.
THIRD DAY

Today bring to Me all devout and faithful souls, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. These souls brought Me consolation on the Way of the Cross. They were that drop of consolation in the midst of an ocean of bitterness.

Most Merciful Jesus, from the treasury of Your mercy, You impart Your graces in great abundance to each and all. Receive us into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart and never let us escape from It. We beg this of You by that most wondrous love for the heavenly Father with which Your Heart burns so fiercely.

The miracles of mercy are impenetrable.
Neither the sinner nor just one will fathom them.
When You cast upon us an eye of pity,
You draw us all closer to Your love.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon faithful souls, as upon the inheritance of Your Son. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, grant them Your blessing and surround them with Your constant protection. Thus may they never fail in love or lose the treasure of the holy faith, but rather, with all the hosts of Angels and Saints, may they glorify Your boundless mercy for endless ages. Amen.
FOURTH DAY

Today bring to Me the pagans and those who do not yet know me. I was thinking also of them during My bitter Passion, and their future zeal comforted My Heart. Immerse them in the ocean of My mercy.

Most Compassionate Jesus, You are the Light of the whole world. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of pagans who as yet do not know You. Let the rays of Your grace enlighten them that they, too, together with us, may extol Your wonderful mercy; and do not let them escape from the abode which is Your Most Compassionate Heart.

May the light of Your love
Enlighten the souls in darkness;
Grant that these souls will know You
And, together with us, praise Your mercy.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of pagans and of those who as yet do not know You, but who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Draw them to the light of the Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is to love You. Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.
FIFTH DAY

Today bring to Me the souls of heretics and schismatics, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. During My bitter Passion they tore at My Body and Heart; that is, My Church. As they return to unity with the Church, My wounds heal, and in this way they alleviate My Passion.

Most Merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself. You do not refuse light to those who seek it of You. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of heretics and schismatics. Draw them by Your light into the unity of the Church, and do not let them, escape from the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart; but bring it about that they, too, come to adore the generosity of Your mercy.

(61) Even for those who have torn the garment of Your unity,
A fount of mercy flows from Your Heart.
The omnipotence of Your mercy, Oh God,
Can lead these souls also out of error.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of heretics and schismatics, who have squandered Your blessings and misused Your graces by obstinately persisting in their errors. Do not look upon their errors, but upon the love of Your own Son and upon His bitter Passion, which He underwent for their sake, since they, too, are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Bring it about that they also may glorify Your great mercy for endless ages. Amen.
SIXTH DAY

Today bring to Me the meek and humble souls and the souls of little children, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony, I saw them as earthly Angels, who would keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole torrents of grace. Only the humble souls is able to receive My grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence.

(62) Most Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said "Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of Heart." Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy, and they are the heavenly Father's favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.

A truly gentle and humble soul
Already here on earth the air of paradise breathes,
And in the fragrance of her humble heart
The Creator Himself delights.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek and humble souls, and upon the souls of little children, who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love you bear these souls and by the delight You take in them; bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.
SEVENTH DAY

Today bring to Me the souls who especially venerate and glorify My mercy, and immerse them in My mercy. these souls sorrowed most over My Passion and entered most deeply into My Spirit. They are living images of My Compassionate Heart. These souls will shine with a special brightness in the next life. Not one of them will go into the fire of hell. I shall particularly defend each one of them at the hour of death.

(63) Most Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who particularly extol and venerate the greatness of Your mercy. these souls are might with the very power of God Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go forward, confident of Your mercy. These souls are united to Jesus and carry all mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your mercy will embrace them as they depart from this life.

A soul who praises the goodness of her Lord
Is especially loved by Him.
She is always close to the living fountain
And draws graces from Mercy Divine.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and venerate Your greatest attribute, that of Your fathomless mercy, and who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living Gospel; their hands are full of deeds of mercy and their spirit, overflowing with joy, sings a canticle of mercy to You, O Most High! I beg You O God; Show them Your mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed in You. Let there be accomplished in them the promises of Jesus, who said to them, I Myself will defend as My own glory, during their lifetime, and especially at the hour of their death, those souls who will venerate My fathomless mercy.
EIGHTH DAY

Today bring to Me the souls who are in the prison of Purgatory, and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. Let the torrents of My blood cool down their scorching flames. All these souls are greatly loved by Me. They are making retribution to My justice. It is in your power to bring them relief. Draw all the indulgences from the treasure (64) of My church and offer them on their behalf. Oh, if you only knew the torments they suffer, you would continually offer for them the alms of the spirit and pay off their debt to My justice.

Most Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said that You desire mercy, so I bring into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls in Purgatory, souls who are very dear to You, and yet, who must make retribution to Your justice. May the streams of Blood and Water which gushed forth from Your Heart put out the flames of the purifying fire, that in that place, too, the power of Your mercy may be praised.

From the terrible heat of the cleansing fire
Rises a plaint to Your mercy,
And they receive comfort, refreshment, relief
In the stream of mingled Blood and Water

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls suffering in Purgatory, who are enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. I beg You, by the sorrowful Passion of Jesus Your Son, and by all the bitterness with which His most sacred Soul was flooded, manifest Your mercy to the souls who are under Your just scrutiny. Look upon them in no other way than through the Wounds of Jesus. Your dearly beloved Son; for we firmly believe that there is no limit to Your goodness and compassion.
NINTH DAY

Today bring to Me souls who have become lukewarm, and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. These souls wound My heart most painfully. My soul suffered the most dreadful loathing in the Garden of Olives because of lukewarm souls. They were the reason I cried out: "Father, take this cup away fro Me, if it be Your will." For them, the last hope (65) of salvation is to flee to My mercy.

Most Compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I bring lukewarm souls into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart. In this fire of Your pour love let these tepid souls, who, like corpses, filled You with such deep loathing, be once again set aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence of Your mercy and draw them into the very ardor of Your love; and bestow upon them the gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond Your power.

Fire and ice cannot be joined;
Either the fire dies, or the ice melts
But by Your mercy, O God,
You can make up for all that is lacking.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls, who are nonetheless enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Father of Mercy, I beg You by the bitter Passion of Your Son and by His three-hour agony on the Cross; Let them too, glorify the abyss of Your mercy...

O day of eternity, O day so long desired,
With thirst and longing, my eyes search you out.
Soon love will tear the veil asunder,
And you will be my salvation.

O day most beautiful, moment incomparable,
When for the first time I shall see my God,
The Bridegroom of my soul and Lord of lords,
And fear will not restrain my soul.

O day most solemn, O day of brightness,
When the soul will know God in His omnipotence
And down totally in His love,
Knowing the miseries of exile are o'er.

O happy day, O blessed day,
When my heart will burn for You with fire eternal.
For even now I feel Your presence, though through the veil.
Through life and death, O Jesus, You are my rapture and delight.

O day, of which I dreamed through all my life,
Waiting long for You, O God,
For it is You alone whom I desire.
You are the one and only of my heart; all else is naught.

O day of delight, day of eternal bliss,
God of great majesty, my beloved Spouse,
You know that nothing will satisfy a virgin heart.
On Your tender Heart I rest my brow.

MedjugorjeInspirationals] Medjugorje Day By Day June 20 - GIVE ME ALL YOUR PROBLEMS

"In Mary's virginal womb the Sacred Heart of Jesus was fashioned beneath her own heart and commenced to beat in unison with it. And there, in that first-ever tabernacle of the real presence, began the admirable alliance that would never end—the covenant of love and collaboration between the Eucharistic Heart of the Redeemer and the Immaculate Heart of Mary" (Fr. Richard Foley, S.J.).

Mother Teresa
"The Eucharist is connected with the Passion. If Jesus had not established the Eucharist we would have forgotten the crucifixion. It would have faded into the past and we would have forgotten that Jesus loved us. There is a saying that to be far away from the eyes is to be far away from the heart.

Meditations by Padre Pio -
Father, I feel unworthy to receive Holy Communion, I am unworthy!" Reply; "it is true, we are not worthy of such a gift, but it is one thing to receive unworthily in the state of mortal sin and another to be unworthy. We are all unworthy; but it is He who invites us, and He who desires it. Let us humble ourselves and receive Him with our hearts full of love" )LdP,55).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen
"Though He Who was rich became poor for our sake, yet He would not be an earthly king by force. A poor blind man could stop Him on the roadway to be cured of his blindness, but not all the masses with their universal acclaim and suffrage could make Him king. Then He laid His finger on their error, `You seek Me not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were satisfied' (John 6: 26). They sought Him not for the higher part of their being, but for their stomachs; not for His morality, but for their economics; not for His saving grace, but because of the dormancy of the spiritual in their souls."

Beware of those who promise the world!

"When loaves are more valued than the Divine Power Which multiplied them; when streams are more admired than the fountains that produced them, the world will accept any kind of a king who promises bread and plenty."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
Today, I took part in a one-day retreat. When I was at the last conference, the priest was speaking of how much the world needs God's mercy, and that this seems to be a special time when people have great need of prayer and God's mercy. Then I heard a voice in my soul: These words are for you. Do all you possibly can for this work of My mercy. I desire that My mercy be worshiped, and I am giving mankind the last hope of salvation; that is, recourse to My mercy. My Heart rejoices in this feast. After these words, I understood that nothing can dispense me from the obligation which the Lord demands from me. (998)
Let the glory and praise to The Divine Mercy rise from every creature throughout all ages and times. (1005)

Praise and glory be to You, O Holy Trinity, Eternal God. May the mercy springing from Your very bowels protect us from Your just anger. Let the praise of Your incomprehensible mercy resound everywhere. All Your works bear the seal of Your unfathomable mercy, O God. (1007)

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 20 - GIVE ME ALL YOUR PROBLEMS The anniversary of the Medjugorje apparitions (JUNE 25) seems to be very important to Our Lady, for she begins preparing us for it days in advance. For instance, on this day in 1985, she said:
Dear children, for the coming feast day, I wish to call you to open your hearts to the Master of all hearts. Give me all your problems and worries! I want to comfort you in all your trials. Truly, I wish to fill you with peace, joy, and love for God (Weekly Message JUNE 20,1985).

St Peter speaks of the good fruit which trials can bear:

In this you rejoice, even if now for a little while you have had to suffer various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith being more precious than gold that, through perishable is tested by fire may be found to result in praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed (1 Pt 1:6-7).

Reflections:

Problems and trials are a part of life, of course, but there are several ways of dealing with them.

Rather than holding onto them through worry and fear, Our Lady asks us to, "Give me all your problems and worries," a way of saying "Let go, and let God." This trusting surrender to the Lord of our problems is the spirit behind this passage by St. Francis de Sales

Do not look forward to the trials and crosses of this life with dread and fear. Rather, look to them with full confidence that, as they arise, God, to whom you belong, will deliver you from them.

He has guided and guarded you thus far in life. Do you but hold fast to his dear hand and he will lead you safely through all trials. Whenever you cannot stand, he will carry you lovingly in his arms.

Application:

Offer this prayer by St. Francis whenever you feel burdened with problems

Medjugorje Day By Day June 19 - LET PEACE RULE

Pope Benedict XVI wrote of the Most Holy Eucharist, "The One whom we adore—as I was saying—is not some distant power. He has knelt down before us to wash our feet. And that gives to our adoration the quality of being unforced, adoration in joy and in hope, because we are bowing down to enter into a love that does not make slaves of us but transforms us. So let us ask the Lord that he may grant us to understand this and to rejoice in it and that this understanding and this joy may spread out from this day far and wide into our country and our everyday life" (God is Near Us).

"This Sacrament being a mystery of faith, we must believe firmly that Jesus Christ is really present in the Holy Eucharist, and that He is living and glorious there as in heaven" (St. John Vianney).

Mother Teresa
And the only way you can get through is knowing through prayer and reflection that God is with you through it all. "Jesus I trust in you."

Meditations by Padre Pio -

My children, we can never prepare ourselves too much for Holy Communion (AP).

Archbishop Fulton Sheen
They misunderstood the King in their midst

"Jesus fed bread to the multitudes in the desert. Having fed the hungry masses, they `sought to make Him king' (John 6: 15). It is ever in the human heart, when it loses its love of the spiritual, to worship those who promise full stomachs or economic power. They wished to make Jesus king in opposition to all the kings of the earth; instead of surrendering themselves to Him and His sublime doctrine about sin and redemption, they willed to have Him submit to them. They did not want to be drawn up to Him, but to draw Him down to them. However sincere and enthusiastic they were, they were, nevertheless, bent on pulling Divinity down to the level of the human."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
O most sweet Jesus, who have deigned to allow miserable me to gain a knowledge of Your unfathomable mercy; O most sweet Jesus, who have graciously demanded that I tell the whole world of Your incomprehensible mercy, this day I take into my hands the two rays that spring from Your merciful Heart; that is, the Blood and the Water; and I scatter them all over the globe so that each soul may receive Your mercy and, having received it, may glorify it for endless ages. O most sweet Jesus who, in Your incomprehensible kindness, has deigned to unite my wretched heart to Your most merciful Heart, it is with Your own Heart that I glorify God, our Father, as no soul has ever glorified Him before. (836)
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 19 - LET PEACE RULE
The Blessed Mother speaks of peace today:

Dear children, today I invite you to peace. As the Queen of Peace I have come to deepen within you my motherly peace. Dear children, I love you and I wish that all of you experience God's peace which enriches every heart. I invite you to become carriers and witnesses of my peace to this unpeaceful world. Let peace rule over all the earth, which is devoid of peace and yet longs for it. I bless you with a mother's blessing (Monthly Message July 25, 1990),

St. Peter also urges us to seek peace:

Those who desire life and desire to see good days, let them keep their tongues from evil and their lips form speaking deceit; let them turn away from evil and do good; let them seek peace and pursue it (1 Pt 3:10-11).

Reflection:

To be truly at peace we must put our lives and talents to use in serving God and our neighbor in the service of love. The prizes that the world values money, fame, or pleasure never truly satisfy. God never allows even one human being whom he has created to be content with anything short of himself. As St. Augustine wrote, "Our hearts are restless until they rest in thee." And so Our Lady reminds us that peace is a gift" which only God gives and which enriches every heart." This is the peace that comes from purpose in our lives, from loving and serving God and neighbor.

Application:

Today, pray that through your life, talents, and prayers, you may become, as Our Lady says, "a carrier and witness of my peace to this unpeaceful world.

Medjugorje Day BY Day June 17 - MANY ARE SEEKING MONEY

"[Jesus in the Holy Eucharist] asks my for nothing but love . . . . He is so
much in love with my heart that He makes me burn with His divine fire, with
the fire of His love . . . . I often ask myself if any people exist who do not
feel their breast burning with divine fire, especially when they are close to
Him in the Blessed Sacrament" (St. Padre Pio).

Mother Teresa
Everything is God's to give and to take away, so share what you've been given, and that includes yourself.

Meditations by Padre Pio -

The Heart of our divine Master has no law more loveable than that of gentleness, humility and charity (CE,11).

Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Promises of materials turns into imprisonment of self

"Communism swept one-third of the world into the grasp of the Iron Bear simple because it promised pie in the sky after hatred had overthrown the existing order. The great fallacy of all revolutionary movements is that the value of great lives is nullified, either through persecution or character assassination, in the interests of fallacious promises and illusory hopes. Our world is slow to learn that those who turn out the lights of Heaven, bay that very act turn out the lights earth. Influences are born of moral stamina but promises, like spider webs, are woven from the bellies of materialism."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
During Holy Mass, I was so enveloped in the great interior fire of God's love and the desire to save souls that I do not know how to express it. I feel I am all aflame. I shall fight all evil with the weapon of mercy. I am being burned up by the desire to save souls. I traverse the world's length and breadth and venture as far as its ultimate limits and its wildest lands to save souls. I do this through prayer and sacrifice. I want every soul to glorify the mercy of God, for each one experiences the effects of that mercy on himself. The Saints in heaven worship the mercy of the Lord. I want to worship it even now, here on earth, and to spread devotion to it in the way that God demands of me.... (745)

The mercy of the Lord is praised by the holy souls in heaven who have themselves experienced that infinite mercy. What these souls do in heaven, I already will begin to do here on earth. I will praise God for His infinite goodness, and I will strive to bring other souls to know and glorify the inexpressible and incomprehensible mercy of God. (753)

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 17 - MANY ARE SEEKING MONEY
The Gospa expresses a special concern to Mirjana:

Right now many are greatly seeking money not only in the parish, but throughout the world. Woe to those who seek to exploit those who are coming here, and blessed are those who have been exploited (Special Message March 18, 1985).

And in Mark's gospel, Jesus encounters a rich young man:

Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said, "You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me." When he heard this, he was shocked and went away grieving, for he had many possessions. Then Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How hard it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!" (Mk 10:21-23).

Reflection:

There was a barrier keeping the young man out of the kingdom: his love of money. Perhaps it represented his self-respect, accomplishments, or family name. Whatever the reason, money had become his first priority.

Why did Jesus feel it was hard for the rich to enter heaven? Perhaps because the wealthy have most of their basic physical needs met, and thus often become self-reliant rather than reliant of God. Perhaps Jesus knew that money can be a salve to dull the pain that was meant to draw them to God. Ironically, in their wealth, the rich can suffer the truest poverty, the absence of God in their lives.

Christ explained that in the world to come, the values of this world will be reversed. Those who seek status and importance here will have none in heaven, and vice versa. It is important, then, to begin to live heaven's values while still on earth.

Application:

In prayer today give Our Lady your money and possessions, asking her to help you use them unselfishly and wisely.

Medjugorje Day By Day June 18 - NOW IS THE TIME

"O wealth of the poor, how admirably You know how to sustain souls! And
without their seeing such great wealth, You show it to them little by little.
When I behold majesty as extraordinary as this concealed in something as small as the Host, it happens afterward that I marvel at wisdom so wonderful, and I
fail to know how the Lord gives me courage or strength to approach Him. If He
who has granted, and still does grant me so many favors, did not give this
strength, it would be impossible to conceal the fact or resist shouting aloud
marvels so great" (St. Teresa of Avila).

Mother Teresa
Be happy in the moment, that's enough. Each moment is all we need, not more. Be happy now and if you show through your actions that you love others, including those who are poorer than you, you'll give them happiness, too. It doesn't take much - it can be just giving a smile. The world would be a much better place if everyone smiled more. So smile, be cheerful, be joyous that God loves you

Meditations by Padre Pio -
My Jesus, my sweetness, how can I live without You? Come always, My Jesus, come; You alone take possession of my heart (AD,54).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
If you want freedom, exercise your free will as God wills

"People talk most about their health when they are sick, and most about liberty when they are in danger of losing it. Despite all the pleas for liberty, it must be remembered that every flight from responsibility is a flight from liberty and every denial of personal guilt is also a denial of freedom."

No matter what excuses, we didn't just fall off the cabbage truck!

"Cabbages cannot do wrong, though they have heads; calculators cannot commit sin, though they can do many things which seem to emulate human thought. Perhaps it is the very burden of responsibility which flows from free choice that makes so many human beings ready to surrender their great gift of freedom. This also explains the search for someone to whom they can commit their choice, who do their thinking for them and relieve them of the awful burden of the consequences of their free decisions. This search for someone to whom neurotic minds can commit themselves explains the comparatively facile surrender of so many to totalitarianism in our day and age."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
O most sweet Jesus, who have deigned to allow miserable me to gain a knowledge of Your unfathomable mercy; O most sweet Jesus, who have graciously demanded that I tell the whole world of Your incomprehensible mercy, this day I take into my hands the two rays that spring from Your merciful Heart; that is, the Blood and the Water; and I scatter them all over the globe so that each soul may receive Your mercy and, having received it, may glorify it for endless ages. O most sweet Jesus who, in Your incomprehensible kindness, has deigned to unite my wretched heart to Your most merciful Heart, it is with Your own Heart that I glorify God, our Father, as no soul has ever glorified Him before. (836)
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 18 - NOW IS THE TIME

The following was given to the locutionist Marijana:

My angel, pray for unbelievers. People will tear their hair, brother will plead with brother, they will curse their past lives lived without God. They will repent, but it will be too late. Now is the time for conversion. I have been calling you for the past four years. Pray for them. Invite everyone to pray the rosary (Special Message August 15, 1985).

IN equally strong language, Jesus urges readiness for his second coming:

For as the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son Of Man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark and they knew nothing until the flood came and swept them all away, so too will be the coming of the Son of Man. Then two will be in the field; one will be left. Two women will be grinding meal together; one will be taken and one will be left. Keep awake therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming (Mt 24:37-42).

Reflection:

"Now is the time of conversion," the Madonna says today, echoing the words of Jesus in the gospels. Of course the bet reason for converting or deepening our faith is out of love for God, but some may need the impetus of the warnings of Christ and his Mother today. How one comes to faith is as unique as each individual.

The British educator F. H, Drinkwater tells the story of Ira Dutton, born on a farm in Vermont, a teen-age dropout from school, and an enlistee in the northern army when the Civil War broke out. Eventually promoted to officer's rank, he was twenty-two when the war ended.

From there he began the tragic downward spiral of alcoholism. For years he led a kind of double life, sober in the daytime, but drunk and carousing at night, until that time when the disease entered its final, terminal stage. At this juncture he experienced through the grace of God, a life-changing conversion and a miraculous healing of his alcoholism.

At the age of forty, he was received into the Catholic Church and changed his first name to Joseph. Two years later he read about Fr. Damien and determined to go and help him with the lepers. When he met Damien on the beach of Molokai in 1886, he told him he wanted no special treatment: "I wish only to serve my fellow man." Fr. Damien already had leprosy, and in another few moments was dead. Brother Joseph lived for another forty years on Nolokai, devoting himself to the care of lepers until his own death in 1926.

Application:

In prayer today, abandon yourself again to Our Lady, asking for the grace of deep conversion.

Medjugorje Day By Day June 16 - THE MASS

St. Anthony of Padua, Doctor of the Church, Italy (1195-1231)
"Anthony was a friend of St. Francis and became a Franciscan priest. He was a great preacher on the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and told everyone he met about his love for Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. St. Anthony was also known as a great miracle worker who loved the poor and sick people very much. Wherever he went, St. Anthony performed many miracles to help feed the poor, heal the sick, and care for the needy. He is known as a great Doctor of the Church, patron of the poor, and finder of the lost" (Adoration for Children).

Mother Teresa
Many people think that having money makes you happy. I think it must be harder to be happy if you are wealthy because you may find it difficult to see God; you'll have too many other things to think about. However, if God has given you this gift of wealth, then use it for His purpose - help others, help the poor, create jobs, give work to others. Don't waste your wealth. Having food, a home, dignity, freedom, health and an education are all of God's gifts too, which is why we must help those who are less fortunate than ourselves.

Meditations by Padre Pio -

During the rioting of the passions and adverse events, keep in mind the dear hope of His unlimited mercy. Let us run with confidence to the tribunal of penance, where He waits for you at all times with the anxiety of a father; and although we are conscious of our debt towards Him, let us not doubt the solemn pardon of our sins. Let us bury them as our Lord has done (CE,18).

Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Those who trust in God will avoid the venom of the serpent

"The unfortunate characteristics of our day is that propaganda has taken the place of personal influence. Politics has become so primary in modern life, that the masses are more moved by promises than by fulfillments."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
Eternal Truth, give me a ray of Your light that I may come to know You, O Lord, and worthily glorify Your infinite mercy. And at the same time, grant me to know myself, the whole abyss of misery that I am. (727)

During the meditation on creation... at a certain point, my soul became closely united to its Lord and Creator. In this union, I recognized the purpose and destiny of my life. My purpose is to become closely united to God through love, and my destiny is to praise and glorify God's mercy. The Lord has allowed me to know and experience this in a distinct and even physical way. I become lost in admiration when I recognize and experience this incomprehensible love of God with which God loves me. Who is God - and what am I? I cannot meditate on this any further. Only love can understand this meeting of two spirits, namely, God-who-is-Spirit and the soul-who-is-creature. The more I know Him, the more completely with all the strength of my being I drown in Him. (729)

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 16 - THE MASS
Of the Mass, Our Lady says:

Dear children, I am calling you to more attentive prayer and to greater participation in the Mass. I wish your Mass to be an experience of God (Weekly Message May 16, 1985).

Jesus also speaks of the Eucharist, the living bread:

I am the bread of life. Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. This is the bread that comes down form heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh (Jan 6:48-51).

Reflection:

Stories continue to come out of China, from time to time, of the heroic efforts of the few remaining bishops and priests to keep the faith alive and nourish the underground church. One such story tells of a priest who lives and works as a coolie. By means of prearranged sign language, he gets messages around of where he is to be found usually at the corner of a local market selling soap. Customers who, like the early Christians, give a secret sign, are given a piece of soap, between the wrappings of which is hidden a small consecrated host.

The Chinese Catholic takes his purchase home and usually, after a short family service, receives communion. Clearly the most exalted gift of Christ is his very body and blood in the Eucharist. St. Ambrose wrote of the miracle: "Christ is food for me; Christ is drink for me; the flesh of God is food for me, the blood of God is drink for me. Christ is ministered to me daily."

Application:

For reflection today: Do you prepare for the Mass? Do you participate in the responses and singing? Do you spend a few minutes in thanksgiving afterwards? How can you enter more deeply into the Eucharist?

"I am your Jesus, born Incarnate."


"When you give Me your complete trust, it is as though you have given Me a priceless gift. In your trust is your surrender to My Father's Will in the present moment. Yes, trust is the scale upon which your surrender is weighed."


"Trust crowns your petitions in such a beautiful and simplistic way that I cannot resist answering your prayers to please you. Trust is like a precious jewel set in the middle of a plain and ordinary piece of jewelry. Trust edifies, beautifies and makes the common prayer regal."


"Pray for trust, and you will be led deeper into this beautifying virtue."

MESSAGE FROM JESUS CHRIST OUR SAVIOR
JESUS REQUESTS MORE PRAYER IN HOMES AND CHURCHES TO MITIGATE FUTURE EVENTS AND
ASKS US ALL TO HELP THOSE WHO HAVE LOST SO MUCH (HOME AND JOB)


THURSDAY, JUNE 16, 2011 @ 11:10 PM


Anna Marie: My Lord may I ask are you Father, Son or Holy Spirit?

Jesus: Beloved one, it is I your Divine Savior, Jesus of Nazareth.

Anna Marie: Dear Jesus, may I ask please, will you bow down and adore God your Eternal Holy Merciful Father,Who is the Alpha and Omega, the Creator of all life of all that is seen and unseen?


Jesus: Yes my dear one, I your Savior Jesus of Mercy will now and always bow down and adore My HolyEternal Merciful Father in Heaven, Who is the great I AM. The giver of all life, seen and unseen.

Anna Marie: Yes my Lord, please speak for your sinful servant is now listening.


Jesus: My dear one, although many citizens in your nation have begun to awaken to the upcoming events,still more than ever, they refuse to listen to the sound of the beating drums. Imminent danger is at your door steps, ready to harm many for the sake of killing innocent others. Prayers have increased by some, yet
others continue in their slumber.

Jesus: Why America, do you refuse to acknowledge the signs that so many have prophesied to you? Why
do you continue in your obstinacy? You refuse to see the state of depravity that your nation is finding itself in. Greed and disobedience to the Father is the reason for your economic losses. Those who have intentionally placed your economic prosperity in this land…….will not go unpunished by the Almighty Hand of the Lord.
You have chosen to enslave your citizens in poverty, loss of employment, loss of hope.


Jesus: For those I am speaking of, who have lost so much over the last few years, I say turn back to your Savior who loves you. Turn back to me and I will help you through your difficult trials. For anyone who has the ability to help those in greater need—you will receive my blessings ten-fold. Give to one another. Help those who have lost much. Go into your communities and serve the least of your people. You can do so in groups, church groups can serve those in need when the “Lost” have no other place to turn to. Be strong my children and pray. Ask my Eternal Father to show you the way. Pray in your homes, pray in your churches.

Let a flood of prayers be received in heaven as an Ocean of Mercy for all citizens of your nation. Every country has enough “PRAYER WARRIORS” to help mitigate the soon, upcoming events of financial, economic, food and natural disasters!


Jesus: Now will you pray? How many hours of your day can you offer your Savior? How many prayers can one person pray to stop the foreseeable tragic events that will surely destroy more lives? Please my children, hearken to your Savior’s request and store up for yourselves Treasures in Heaven because all that you have can be taken from you in a blink of an eye. Go my daughter, and pray now. Pray for peace and mercy on your land, for it will not withstand the great battle of what is yet to come.


Anna Marie: Yes, my Lord; I will. My Lord, do you have a Scripture to accompany this message?


Jesus: Isaias 13, Isaias 15:9, Isaias 16:4, Daniel 10:14, Daniel 11:10-15. That is all.


Anna Marie: Thank you my Lord for your mercy, we all love you, dear Savior and Mother Mary too!


End of Message


ISAIAS 13 (The desolation of Babylon)


1) The burden of Babylon, which Isaias the son of Amos saw.
2) Upon the dark mountain lift ye up a banner, exalt the voice, lift up the hand, and let the rulers go into the gates.
3) I have commanded my sanctified ones, and have called my strong ones in my wrath, them that rejoice in my glory.

4) The noise of a multitude in the mountains, as it were of many people, the noise of the sound of kings, of nations gathered together: the Lord of hosts hath given charge to the troops of war.

5) To them that come from a country afar off, from the end of heaven: the Lord and the instruments of his
wrath, to destroy the whole land.
6) Howl ye, for the day of the Lord is near: it shall come as a destruction from the Lord.
7) Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every heart of man shall melt.
8) And shall be broken. Gripings and pains shall take hold of them, they shall be in pain as a woman in labour.
Every one shall be amazed at his neighbour., their countenances shall be as faces burnt.
9) Behold, the day of the Lord shall come, a cruel day, and full of indignation, and of wrath, and fury, to lay
the land desolate, and to destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10) For the stars of heaven, and their brightness shall not display their light: the sun shall be darkened in his
rising, and the moon shall not shine with her light.
11) And I will visit the evils of the world, and against the wicked for their iniquity: and I will make the pride of
infidels to cease, and will bring down the arrogancy of the mighty.
12) A man shall be more precious than gold, yea a man than the finest of gold.
13) For this I will trouble the heaven: and the earth shall be moved out of her place, for the indignation of the
Lord of hosts, and for the day of his fierce wrath.
14) And they shall be as a doe fleeing away, and as a sheep: and there shall be none to gather them together:
every man shall turn to his own people, and every one shall flee to his own land.
15) Every one that shall be found, shall be slain: and every one that shall come to their aid, shall fall by the
sword.
16) Their infants shall be dashed in pieces before their eyes: their houses shall be pillaged, and their wives
shall be ravished.
17) Behold I will stir up the Medes against them, who shall not seek silver, nor desire gold.
18) But with their arrows they shall kill the children, and shall have no pity upon the sucklings of the womb,
and their eye shall not spare their sons.
19) And that Babylon, glorious amoung kingdoms, the famous pride of the Chaldeans, shall be even as the
Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.
20) It shall no more be inhabited for ever, and it shall not be founded unto generation and generation: neither
shall the Arabian pitch his tents there, nor shall shepherds rest there.
21) But wild beasts shall rest there, and their houses shall be filled with serpents, and ostriches shall dwell
there, and the hairy ones shall dance there:
22) And owls shall answer one another there, in the houses thereof, and sirens in the temples of pleasure.
ISAIAS 15:9
For the waters of Dibon are filled with blood: for I will bring more upon Dibon: the lion upon them that shall
flee of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.


ISAIAS 16:4

(The prophet prayeth for Christ’s coming. The affliction of the Moabites for their pride.)
My fugitives shall dwell with thee: O Moab, be thou a covert to them from the face of the destroyer: for the dust is at an end, the wretch is consumed: he hath failed, that trod the earth underfoot.

SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 2011 CORE GROUP PRAYING


MY PRECIOUS CHILDREN, I HAVE RECEIVED YOU INTO MY HEART AND YOU TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THAT SPECIAL PLACE OF RESERVE. I GREET YOU THERE WITH JOY AND HOPE AND I EMBRACE YOU WITH A TRUE AND DEEP LOVE.


YOUR CONVERSATION IS TROUBLING AS YOU CONSIDER THE PRIESTS WHO ARE NOT TRUE TO THE TEACHINGS AND TRADITIONS OF THE HOLY CHURCH. YOUR CONVERSATIONS REFLECT THE CONDITION OF THE CHURCH AND THOSE WHO ARE TO SAVE SOULS. DO NOT THINK I AM DISAPPOINTED THAT YOU ARE SO CONCERNED, I FIND THIS TROUBLING TO A GREAT DEGREE AND I AM GRATEFUL THAT YOU SEE AND ARE AWAKE TO THIS SITUATION.

OH DEAR ONES KEEP YOUR CONCERNS AMONGST YOU, BUT DO NOT HESITATE TO SPEAK THE TRUTH, TO UPHOLD THE TRUTH, TO DEFEND THE TRUTH. THOSE PRIESTS WHO HAVE FAILED IN THE TRUTH, SHALL FIND THEMSELVES HUMBLED BEFORE JESUS AND THEIR PRIDE SHALL EITHER DISSIPATE OR CRUSH THEM. PRAY THAT AS THEY ARE GIVEN THE ACT OF GOD'S MERCY, AND THEY SEE WHAT THEY HAVE DONE AND FAILED TO DO, THEY WILL CRY OUT TO MY SON FOR FORGIVENESS AND MERCY.


IT IS SO IMPERATIVE THAT YOU YOURSELVES ARE IN JOY AND HOPE. YOU MUST NOT BE INFLUENCED BY FEAR. FEAR COMES FROM LACK OF FAITH AND YOU ARE NOW THE EXAMPLE FOR ALL IN UNITY. IT DOES NOT MATTER THE CROSS EACH CARRIES, BUT HOW YOU CARRY THE CROSS. EACH ONE HAS BEEN GIVEN WHAT YOU CAN CARRY AND YOU MUST REMEMBER YOU DO NOT CARRY THE WEIGHT ALONE. YOU MY CHILDREN WERE CHOSEN TO INFLUENCE OTHERS THAT THEY TRUST COMPLETELY AND RESIDE WITH A DEEP FAITH THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN. I TELL YOU THAT THIS WILL REQUIRE A GREAT GRACE AND MY LOVES YOU HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF RECEIVING THIS GRACE.


AS YOU WATCH GOD'S HAND COME ACROSS YOUR NATION, YOU WITNESS THE DEVASTATION AND DISTRESS, YET THE CHURCHES REMAIN EMPTY WITH NO ONE DRAWING THE WRETCHED FROM THEIR SIN INTO GRACE.. THOSE WHO SPEAK OF GOD'S GOODNESS ARE FEW AS THEY ARE SPARED. EVERYTHING IS LOST, BUT THE WILL TO LIVE. PRAY THAT THOSE WHO ARE TO LEAD THE FLOCKS COME TO REALIZE THAT THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SOULS AND WE PRAY THEY BECOME OPEN TO THE HOLY SPIRIT.

HE WANTS TO FILL THE SHEPHERDS WITH TRUTH AND WISDOM BUT THEY MUST RESPOND TO HIS OFFERINGS. HOW MANY REMAIN RELUCTANT TO GOD'S GRACE. OH MY CHILDREN THEY ARE FULL OF PRIDE AND ARE SELFISH. PRAY, PRAY, PRAY.


THIS DAY SEEMS TO BE OCCUPIED WITH PRIESTS WHO ARE NOT FILLED WITH GRACE, BUT WITH SELF WORTH. BUT THERE ARE THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN EVERYTHING FOR JESUS' SAKE. THEY ARE THE PRIESTS WHO ARE A REFLECTION OF JESUS, FILLED WITH HUMILITY AND LOVE. LOVE FOR GOD, LOVE FOR THEIR FLOCKS. THEY SUFFER DEEPLY, ESPECIALLY AT THE HANDS OF THEIR BROTHERS. THEY FIND COMFORT ONLY IN JESUS' SACRED HEART, MY IMMACULATE HEART AND THOSE LITTLE ONES WHO REMAIN FAITHFUL. CONSIDER THEIR PAIN AND ALWAYS BE AVAILABLE TO SHARE YOUR LOVE AND KINDNESS.


THE DAYS OF WAITING BECOME FEWER AND FEWER. BE ALERT AS YOU WILL FIND THE HOLY SPIRIT AWAKENING IN YOU A DEEP WISDOM AND PEACE. YOU WILL BE HELP FOR MANY AND CAUSE OTHERS TO SEEK OUT THOSE PRIESTS WHO LIVE IN THE TRUTH. THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL GUIDE YOU AND YOU WILL BE AMAZED AT HIS GIFTS. ACCEPT THEM WITH MATURITY AND GO FORWARD STRONG AND COURAGEOUS. I SAY TO YOU - FEAR NOT - NOT FOR ANYTHING. YOU'RE NOW LIVING WHAT YOU WERE CHOSEN FOR.


I LOVE YOU MY LITTLE ONES AS ONLY A MOTHER CAN. ALWAYS I AM WATCHING OVER YOU AND BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, I GUIDE YOU. WHAT WORDS CAN I GIVE YOU TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO LIVE IN TOTAL TRUST. BELIEVE THAT ALL IS POSSIBLE WITH GOD AND YOU WILL SEE THIS OVER AND OVER. BE ALWAYS HUMBLE AND CLING TO THOSE WHO ALSO KNOW THE TRUTH AND LIVE IN IT.


MY CHILDREN, I AM GRATEFUL THAT YOU DECIDED TO BE WITH ME THIS DAY IN THIS SPECIAL WAY. YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND THE DEPTH OF MY LOVE AND EVEN THESE PETALS FROM HEAVEN CANNOT GIVE YOU COMPREHENSION. BUT UNDERSTAND THIS - YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART. JESUS HAS ASSIGNED IT TO YOU AND THIS IS DONE FOR YOUR CONCERN. BE JOYFUL IN ALL THAT IS REVEALED TO YOU BECAUSE ALL WILL BRING YOU TO THE NEW HEAVENS AND THE NEW EARTH.


NOW I GO TO EACH OF YOU. AS I EMBRACE YOU I ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT TO BREATHE ON YOU, OPENING YOUR EYES TO THE WILL OF GOD AND PLACING ON YOU A SIGN THAT ALL WILL ONE DAY SEE. HAVING PRAYED THIS FOR YOU, I IMPLORE JESUS TO GIVE HIS BLESSING. THIS TOO HAS BEEN DONE, LEAVING ONLY FOR ME TO KISS YOU ALL IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.


WITH HUMILITY, TAKE IN THESE LITTLE PETALS FROM HEAVEN, PRAISING AND THANKING GOD, OVER AND OVER AND OVER.


PRAISE BE TO GOD, PRAISE BE TO GOD.

6-18-11, excerpts from alleged heavenly messages to Carol Ameche


"Again daughter I say: 'Expect miracles.' You are obedient and humble and filled with sincere gratitude and love for Our people who thrive in the light of Our love for them. Always, just love each other! Believe Me, hearts will be renewed; hope will blossom, gratitude will flourish in the minds of the world. Pray in praise and gratitude and new appreciation for each day with a new surrender to Love.

Be tender and thoughtful forever. Heaven joins Me in leading you into rest today and a more perfect readiness for the unfolding of My Will for you. Let us go forward now with you protected by your amazing patience and trust. Child, be healed in the Name of your Triune God by the merits of My Son, Jesus. Let Our people know you are encouraged to travel again and pray and reflect the thoughtfulness and mercy and trust you all need.


Rest now, daughter. Please believe the wait is so beneficial for you and all who listen to Our words. Know that your own strength has improved ten-fold. Those who await your visit (Indiana and Kentucky) will benefit more than ever, and be given new understanding and strength.


These days of waiting will be filled with the sure destruction of earthquakes and sounds of weeping and sadness at the great loss of lives that include many faithful ones. Tell them now not to live in fear, but pray "Jesus, I trust in you" with all their hearts and sincere faith in those words. The time is so near to events that leave many homeless. Pray for them now, My people. Trust in Our protection."


Heaven's Requests:


"My dear ones, rejoice that you will suffer more at this time. I love you and your love for Me, your Savior and King, your Lord and your God. Please pray as long as you can each day. Please be with Me, your Savior and Redeemer and Lover of your soul. The shaking of this country will occur after Divine Mercy Sunday.

Please tell all Our loved ones they are better prepared for this huge spiritual and physical experience than ever in their lives. Be one with Me now as We are faithful to the Father's Will and Plan.


Now is the time to come to the aid of yourself!! Your health, your own good. It is not selfishness I invite you to undertake. It is not the absence of thoughtfulness for others; but I call everyone to a quiet time of return to a focus on your own health and peace of mind; a harmony within, united to Me, your Creator God and the peace which only My Jesus can give you. Leave others to their own devices and build your inner strength, based on Mine. Let our people know you are encouraged to travel again, and pray and reflect their thoughtfulness and the mercy and trust you all need.


To be vulnerable before others is to invite trust and companionship. I bid you to get more exercise and walking in the fresh air. I am your God. I am the One Who will sustain you in My Word and My Will, My Peace and Mercy. Be filled with new hope that I will see to the renewal of your body and mind, soul and spiritual strength... (help. Please God!) All is still in place, as We have told you.

This waiting will be the most difficult you have ever known. You will be more cemented in My Will, as it is fulfilled for you, and your heart is healed by greater signs of love from Love. I Am your Father God, Who sustains you in My Will.


4-27-11 Our Savior, Jesus, on Divine Mercy (OUR GREATEST AND MOST NEEDED GIFT)


"My dearest one, rejoice, for this is not only the week of the Solemnity of Easter, but the preparation for the feast of Divine Mercy. Please spend each minute in the Presence of Myself, your Jesus of Mercy, and beloved Faustina who is the first Apostle and Image of Divine Mercy in this Age of D. M. in union with Myself, your Jesus. You and dear Harriet (Hammons) have aided an understanding and fostered a devotion to Our Mercy.

When you understand and count on Our mercy, and believe in Our mercy as Our first and foremost response to your needy pleading and total trust in the promise of mercy and forgiveness in spite of the obvious sinful lives Our people lead, you are also Apostles of mercy in union with your prayers with our dear (now) Saint Faustina for mercy and forgiveness for your loved ones, your families and friends, and for the whole world. It is a great mission of mercy when you plead for the world in this way.


Each of you, who is faithful to the Chaplet and Novena of chaplets requested through Faustina for this very week, preparing for the feast of Divine Mercy and accepted by Our beloved Pope John Paul II, many priests and Bishops and faithful throughout the entire world, are living and surrendering to Our Father's Perfect Will for the world, and enabling Him to pour even more mercy upon all of you, as He waits to respond so generously to your humble posture of begging for this mercy and much needed forgiveness.


Each year more people come to new appreciation for the importance of the gifts of mercy, and realize they are not earned by your own goodness and purity, but by your Triune God and those who embrace the opportunity to receive all it means to be completely forgiven and cleansed of all the punishment attached to your sinfulness in lack of charity and virtues (as promised by Jesus to St. Faustina for those who say Novena of Chaplets during the week you just ended on Divine Mercy Sunday and began on Good Friday;) and the instant forgiveness you are learning to use as your response to the selfish and merciless behavior of others.

This carries you on the wings of Mercy to forgive as often and instantly and deeply as you are always treated by the Father and Creator, Redeemer and Sanctifier of all who will accept this liberally offered gift of unfathomable mercy. Amen." Carol Ameche


Pray in praise and gratitude first each day and in a new degree of surrender to Love. Be tender and thoughtful forever! I pledge My help and strength and bravery to you forever!.
I AM your Jesus of Mercy. I am filled with joy for your success and perseverance.

You will all need much strength and rest to handle the sorrow ahead. Repeat often, My people, "I am loved to a never before known level of grace and joy". Please be at peace and patience for the waiting. Please believe the wait is so beneficial for you, and all who listen to Our words.


It is worse this time because so much change and joy are ultimately involved. Constant prayers of gratitude must be lifted to the Father. Consecrate the waiting and excitement and gratitude every moment to the Father. Be at peace and in surrender and trust. The plans of My Father have never been given as such gifts to His creatures in history.

There were enormous gifts of progress given during the times before recorded history in order to hasten the progress of mankind! Believe this, and realize the degree of gift all of you await and the special place you occupy in My Father's plan. Again, always My children, just love each other, as you wait, and forever!!


You are ready now, daughter, with everything you need for these trips to the Midwest and all Our people. Do not worry, I tell you, about anything in your future. Your obedience has given you wings to use to fly above attacks of the evil one. Be encouraged and believe that you are truly protected. When you return from the Midwest and East Coast, ALL WILL UNFOLD AS WE HAVE TOLD YOU. Live in faith and trust that you will do and be all We have said and more. You are loved! Amen."


Please forgive my tardiness in sharing many of these messages: have had surgery (small stuff!) and attacks of old age!! The Father has told me recently that the advent of earthquakes and then the Warning and other destructive events will be the means to bring all the people to our homes that we have been preparing for so long; and the book I compiled : "FOR MERCY'S SAKE" is filled with important and very helpful information that everyone needs to have to understand and be most completely prepared with a total awareness of their condition, frame of mind, and how we should expect to handle them in great numbers, and what they will need most from us.

We are given the 'invitation' by the Father to please send for one of these books from me, to read and prepare fully for this immense change in our environment, fill us with the strength to handle their great loss and this influx of people into our lives and homes and families until we all move to the permanent refuges, to trust the Lord to multiply what we will need to sustain great numbers of refugees.

We WILL be able to be what they will need us to be for them, as we wait in joyful hope for the return of Jesus to fight the great battle of Armageddon after enormous changes in our lifestyles, much loss and sorrow, and hard work and continued prayer for the entire world, followed by the peace and purity of the New Era, in a Eucharistic reign, as God's Eucharistic people. Please think immediately for the importance of having this information. Do not think messages given in the past are outdated for our needs, when thy contain the direction and encouragement we need for the near future, as these do. If you have this book, please read it again as you would a text book.


Again, my address is 7814 E. Northland Dr., Scottsdale, AZ. 85251. I do not take credit cards, but a check or cash for $20.00 to cover cost of Book and shipping.
European postage is very dear and price is $25.00 for overseas shipping of this book. Thank you and Blessings, Carol

MY DEAR DEAR PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILDREN,

IT IS THE DAY OF THE LORD, THANK YOU FOR KEEPING IT HOLY. I REPEAT THIS
OFTEN, SO INTENSE IS THE IMPORTANCE OF OBSERVING THIS DAY.

TODAY, YOU CELEBRATE THE BLESSED TRINITY. HOW BLESSED YOU ARE TO KNOW GOD,
THE FATHER, THE SON, AND HOLY SPIRIT. YOU HAVE COME TO KNOW THEM, ONE GOD.
YOU WILL BENEFIT FROM YOUR ACCEPTANCE AND YOUR LOVE.

DEAR CHILDREN, BECAUSE YOU HAVE COME INTO PRAYER WITH THIS MOTHER, I CAN
OFFER YOU PEACE AND HOPE. THE PEACE IS FROM JESUS, THE HOPE IS IN HIS
PROMISES. RECALL THAT YOU ARE NOT ORPHANS, BUT CHILDREN OF GOD. YOU HAVE
BEEN FORMED INTO A UNITY OF FAITHFUL SOULS, OPEN TO GOD’S WILL AND
ACCEPTANCE OF IT.

YOU WERE FORMED INTO A UNITY THAT EXTENDS FROM THE NORTH,
SOUTH, EAST AND WEST. YOU HAVE BEEN BLESSED BEYOND WORDS AND HAVE COME TO
REST IN THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS, AND THE IMMACULATE HEART OF THIS MOTHER.
YOU ARE LOVED DEEPLY AND THIS IS OF PURE LOVE. OFTEN I ENCOURAGE YOU AND
STRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR PERSEVERANCE.

YET WITH IT ALL, I STRESS
HUMILITY AND LITTLENESS. DO NOT ACCEPT PRIDE AS YOUR COMPANION - IT DRAWS

BE YOUR GARMENTS - THESE GARMENTS ARE PLEASING TO GOD.

WITH GREAT TENDERNESS AND WITH AN UNDERSTANDING OF EACH HEART I BLESS YOU
IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.

AND WITH TRUE LOVE EXTEND IT TO ALL OF YOU. WITH HUMBLE HEARTS RECEIVE IT,
PRAISING AND THANKING GOD FOREVER.


Message Given at Borg in-Nadur March 9, 2011

http://ladyborginnadur.blogspot.com/

(a video is being prepared)

At the start of the apparition, Angelik who was near the large cross accompanied by Fr Hayden, remained standing for about four minutes following the arrival of The Lady. He looked in her direction with a fixed gaze, passing on some messages to Fr Hayden. After this, as Angelik sat on his chair to start the rosary, Fr Hayden descended from the hill and spoke to Fr David. Apparently The Lady had requested the presence of Fr David near the cross, as both Fr Hayden and Fr David now ascended the hill to accompany Angelik, together with the members of the Theotokos group present today.

Following the Salve Regina and when the time for the message was due, Fr David stood on the left of Angelik while the person writing the message and Fr Hayden were on his right. One got the impression that The Lady was asking some questions to Fr David, which would then form part of her message as she had done on a number of other occasions. However when the message for the day was read out after the apparition, it was surprising that this exchange between The Lady and Fr David did not form part of the message. Dr Mark Xuereb was also present to follow the proceedings.

Message Given at Borg in-Nadur

This was the message given by The Lady:

My dear children and my children – the ones of my heart! This is for Fr Hayden and Fr David to pass on to the people.

My children, my Son Jesus is sending me from Heaven, that I may teach you how to build on the rock – as sensible builders do. For, if the builder wants to cheat or economise, he just skims over the work and gets on with it, no matter the outcome. The consequences then emerge as the years go by: some trouble here, some trouble there; over there a split and right here a crack. On the other hand, if the builder is good at his work and sensible, he will persist till he strikes rock.

Indeed, if bed-rock is not to be found, he will lay down concrete. Indeed, my children, if the building is erected on loose shale, just as this ground up here, it will collapse at the first storm. The rains will come and carry all away. If, on the other hand, it is founded on rock, rains may come, but the building will not be carried away since it is built on rock.

The same will happen to you, my children, if you take these things lightly or as a mere curiosity. You would be erecting your building on the sand or clay. A few years will elapse and all will come tumbling down. If you erect your building on the rock: prayer and the Eucharist, if you were to build on these, the building will never be wrecked.

Take hold of the situation your country is facing at present and construct it on rock(1). I am referring to the Eucharist and to prayer. Prayer–among other forms, the simple prayer, the prayer of the rosary.

Indeed, my children, work like that sensible builder and I assure you that your work will yield good results.

Thank you for having listened to my call.

(1) The situation in the country is an upcoming referendum on the introduction of legal divorce in Malta. The message tells what the Lady wants the people to do in the situation (see also P315).

Before her departure, The Lady called the three persons who organize the Rosary-Chain at Borg in-Nadur. Mr Paul Licari announced after the rosary that in fact she had asked for another Rosary-Chain to be organized for the coming weekend. The intention of the rosaries will be for the prevention of introduction of divorce legislation in Malta & Gozo.

During his testimony of the apparition, Angelik said that today The Lady came with her cupped hands full of gems and diamonds. The rosary-beads hung on her left arm. The gems and diamonds seemed to melt and flow down glistening from between her fingers like cascading water.

Testimonies

The only testimonies given today was that by Raymond Vella, presumably because the MIR Prayer Meeting was held the day before and on a Tuesday, which normally is the day that Angelik welcomes people at his house for a number of recitations of the rosary.

Raymond was in Birzebbugia at Angelik’s house yesterday evening after he had taken Angelik’s son to Catechism lessons. Angelik and he had not gone to the MIR Prayer Meeting that was being held at the same time in Naxxar. As he was drinking a cup of coffee, Catherine called Angelik for dinner. As Angelik got up, Raymond said that Angelik fell into an ecstasy and made his way to a bed on that floor to lie down. Then Angelik went through the experience that he normally has during the MIR Prayer Meetings when he accompanies souls that are on their way to Heaven. Angelik has this experience during mass when the priest is consecrating the bread and wine. According to Angelik, these souls are also present during the apparitions of Our Lady at Borg in-Nadur for some time.

Raymond went on to say that at that moment, the Angel communicated with him by means of Angelik and asked him to phone Andre, a member of Theotokos who was at the MIR Meeting, to see what was happening at that moment in the Prayer Meeting. Andre confirmed that in fact the priest was doing the consecration.

Fr Hayden – Summary of Reflections

Fr Hayden referred to the parable in the Gospels of the wise and the foolish builders. The parable illustrates the importance of building one's life on the teachings and example of Jesus and that it is not enough to hear His words; they must be obeyed. Extending this argument to the current situation in Malta regarding the possible introduction of divorce legislation, Fr Hayden said the teachings of Jesus against divorce are clear and well know by the Maltese. We will build our society on solid rock if we take the right decision, otherwise we will be building on sand. Storms will come our way whether we decide in favour or against divorce, Fr Hayden continued. However if we take the correct decision we will withstand the tempest as the foundations will be solid.

Fr Hayden concluded by reminding everyone yet again on the extraordinary power of the prayer of the rosary, especially when recited in the presence of the Eucharist. He also referred to our forefathers, who asked for the help and intercession of Our Lady in very difficult circumstances such as the Second World War. Their prayers were answered and it is important for us to believe that Our Lady can help us again to take the right decision.


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.


Declaration: In conformity with the decree of Pope Urbanus VIII and with the directives of Vatican Council II, we declare that we have no intention of superseding the judgement of the Church about the supernatural nature of the events and alleged messages from The Lady of Borg in-Nadur reproduced here. This judgement remains in the hands of the competent Church authorities. We attribute to the messages only the value of human testimony.

"Do not be afraid"



Dear Friends,



Trial of Persecution


Beloved, do not be surprised that a trial by fire is occurring among you, as if something strange were happening to you. But rejoice to the extent that you share in the sufferings of Christ, so that when his glory is revealed you may also rejoice exultantly. If you are insulted for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. But let no one among you be made to suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as an intriguer.



But whoever is made to suffer as a Christian should not be ashamed but glorify God because of the name. For it is time for the judgment to begin with the household of God; if it begins with us, how will it end for those who fail to obey the Gospel of God?



And if the righteous one is barely saved, where will the godless and the sinner appear? As a result, those who suffer in accord with God’s will hand their souls over to a faithful creator as they do good. (1 Peter 4, 12–19)





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

“All My followers have to face times of persecution in their lives. You will be laughed at because of Me and others will be mocked. You can be dragged to court or to committees because of holding to the truth. Today a Christian can be tried if he or she should publicly refuse to sanction homosexual marriages or refuse homosexuals to sleep in the same room in your home. Government officials who refuse to officiate at homosexual marriages could be kicked out of their job.



How many people have been arrested for demonstrating before an abortion clinic? The world today does not follow Christian morals and they are trying to force the Christians to follow them.



I tell you, My dear friends, do not be afraid of those who can kill the body but cannot kill the spirit. I came to bring you the truth, so follow what I tell you and what My Church tells you and you will be saved. Do not be angry at those people who persecute you but be ready to explain to them why you follow the Christian way.



Accept to suffer for My sake as you know that I suffered until death to redeem you from your sins. Your example will bring others to follow you and these too will be saved. Do not be ashamed to suffer at times for the truth, which I brought you. Only the truth will set you free. I love you and I bless you all.”

The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr

"Show love and reverence"


Dear Friends,



Have great Reverence for the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit



Now if you invoke as Father him who judges impartially according to each one's works, conduct yourselves with reverence during the time of your sojourning, realizing that you were ransomed from your futile conduct, handed on by your ancestors, not with perishable things like silver and gold but with the precious blood of Christ as of a spotless unblemished lamb.



He was known before the foundation of the world but revealed in the final time for you, who through him believe in God who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God. (1 Peter 1, 17 - 21)





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



"Many Christians today do not have much reverence for the Father, for the Holy Spirit and for Me, the Son of God. Some will shout at the Father or at Me saying that we do not care for them. Others will even curse God.



In many churches the Christians do not acknowledge My presence in the Tabernacle of their church. They do not genuflect or even bow as they pass the tabernacle. Is this the proper way to act in front of your Savior and Lord? Should you not show respect to the one who created you and who came to redeem you from your sins?



My dear friends, I call upon you to think about what you are doing when you do not show respect to the Father, to the Holy Spirit or to Me. You are insulting the one who created you and gave you everything you have. You do not care for the Holy Spirit who works in you to make you a child of God. I am your Savior who suffered and died for you and opened heaven for you so that you can enter heaven and be with us forever.




From now on, My dear friends, show love and reverence to the Father, the Holy Spirit and to Me, Your Redeemer. Genuflect as you pass the tabernacle in your church and kneel when you come into the church. Do not talk in the church as if you were at the marketplace. Have respect for God who loves you and you will be blessed. I love you."

"I bless your homes"



Dear Friends,



God's Love and Christian Life



Beloved, let us love one another, because love is of God; everyone who loves is begotten by God and knows God. Whoever is without love does not know God, for God is love. In this way the love of God was revealed to us: God sent his only Son into the world so that we might have life through him.



In this is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as expiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also must love one another. No one has even seen God. Yet, if we love one another, God remains in us, and his love is brought to perfection in us. (1 John 4:7-12)



It was cloudy Christmas Day and again yesterday but we had hardly any snow, only a few flakes now and then. We should see the sun today.





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



"I was born in the world's most special family with Mary as My Mother and Joseph as My foster father. Love of God and love of one another reigned in the family. Joseph whom I called My father was a very good man. He worked hard to take care of both of us. He was always very patient and he was our great protector. What would My Mother have done if he had not been there to help us flee to Egypt?



When we returned from Egypt, Joseph was there to help us settle in Nazareth and to have a loving home. I thank My dear Mother for being so loving and for taking care of Me day after day when I was young. She was the heart of the home and a holy woman of prayer. Her life was a life of service as She was always ready to be of service to us.



I grew up like any other child needing the help of a mother and father. Every child that is born into the world should be born in a family where his parents love one another and they are ready every day to take care of their child. They will love this child as a gift of God and bring him up to know Me who loves every child. Let the Holy Family of Nazareth be an example to all families.



Pray that you will receive the graces to follow in the footsteps of My family. Couples are to live together until death where the children will have a loving home and grow up in the embrace of their mothers and fathers. I bless your homes and I call you all to love one another."

MY DEAR DEAR PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILDREN,



THANK YOU FOR ENDURING SO MUCH FOR JESUS' SAKE. YOU HAVE SHARED YOUR



CHRISTMAS WITH THOSE YOU LOVE AND GOD HAS BLESSED YOU IN A MOST SPECIAL WAY.


THE TOUCH OF MY SON WAS PLACED ON YOUR HEARTS AND IN DOING SO HAS LEFT




IMPRINTED ON EACH ONE AN INDELIBLE MARK. IT IS DIFFERENT THAN ALL ELSE YOU HAVE
RECEIVED. THIS MARK IS OF THE FATHER GIVEN THROUGH HIS SON AND THOSE IN UNITY



CAN BE ASSURED OF IT. THOSE YOU LOVE WERE INCLUDED AND SO NOW YOU REMAIN
STANDING AGAINST ALL EVIL AND UNTRUTHS. THOSE WHO ENCOUNTER YOU WILL KNOW
YOU ARE OF GOD AND THAT YOU STAND FIRM IN THE TRUTH. THE MARK YOU NOW CARRY
IS NOT THE LIGHT.



IT IS NOT THE MARK OF MY SON, IT IS THE MARK OF GOD THE FATHER
AND SHALL BRING YOU INTO HOLINESS. AS YOU CONTINUE IN PRAYER, YOU WILL REALIZE
MORE AND MORE THAT WHAT HAS BEEN DONE FOR YOU HAS PLACED YOU NEAR THE
FATHER AND HE KEEPS WATCH OVER YOU.



THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS DAY AN OBSERVANCE OF REVERENCE FOR THIS THE DAY OF
THE LORD. BE EVER VIGILANT IN ALL YOU DO, THAT YOUR EXAMPLE BE TO OTHERS A SIGN
OF YOUR INHERITANCE.



I GIVE TO ALL MY BLESSING ESPECIALLY DO I BLESS MY BELOVED LITTLE PRIEST SON. HIS
LONGEVITY HAS MADE ITS MARK ON THE WORLD AND I AM GRATEFUL FOR HIS LOVE AND
FIDELITY.



NOW FROM HIS HEART AND THE HEART OF MY PRIEST-SONS COMES THE BLESSING
OF CHRIST. HOW MAGNIFICANT IT IS - BE EVER GRATEFUL, PRAISING AND THANKING GOD,
NOW AND FOREVER.



Message to Eileen Renders Dec. 25, 2009



Yesterday my computer monitor crashed. We were able to locate another and by the end of the day, connect it. Therefore Jesus' message after HOly Communion is now being sent below.



Christmas Day, December 28, 2009



Jesus Promises Us A New Day!



Today we attended the 8:00 AM Mass at our parish, Our Lady Of Sorrows where I made small offerings to Jesus and Mary and prayed for all with special needs and intentions.



Prior to receiving the most sacred Body and Blood of Christ in the sacrament of Holy Communion, I made an Act of Contrition. With the most precious Host on my tongue, I knelt in silent commune with Jesus, both hands covering my face.



At once, tear began to flow as I sensed His presence within my own body and heart. Before I began to pray and as I was giving thanks and praise to Jesus, He began to speak to my heart saying;



My child Eileen, Rise up as today is a new day! Each time you eat My body and drink My blood, you are promised a new day! Go in peace to love and serve the Lord, continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.



Messages to John Leary Nov. 18-Dec.1, 2009



Wednesday, November 18, 2009



Jesus said: My people, as you come to the end times, you need to be prepared for a new way of life first at your refuges and then in My Era of Peace. This pile of fill dirt is a preparation for a new yard, but preparing to leave for your refuges is getting ready for a new life as well. When you leave for your refuge, you will not be returning to your homes, but you will be giving up your possessions to live in a Christian community protected by My angels.



I am making saints out of you by living a more simple life away from the evil of the world. You will be living your purgatory on earth as you endure the tribulation time. At the end of the Antichrist’s reign, I will have My victory over evil as I renew the earth and bring you into My Era of Peace. Rejoice in My victory as you will be perfected to enter heaven.



Jesus said: My people, this vision of everything turning yellow is an indication of a new virus outbreak. Seeing a fireman means there was an emergency to get this outbreak under control.



A deadly virus is exactly what I warned My faithful to be ready for in going to My refuges for protection. I have warned you that these man-made flu viruses could get worse, as planned by the one world people. That could cause a martial law declaration. These evil ones are looking for the least excuse to cause a takeover of America. A pandemic virus like the Swine Flu could be used initially to form the problem, and eventually the Swine Flu shots could be made to seem the solution, especially when it is forced on your people as mandatory.



It will become more and more obvious that these new viruses are man-made and that you should avoid taking these shots to keep healthy. Pray for My help to keep you healthy and protected from these sicknesses.



Thursday, November 19, 2009



Jesus said: My people, today’s readings are a preview of your own events that are about to take place. The Book of Machabees speaks of how they were being forced by the king to worship other gods on the king’s altar. They destroyed the altar and they hid in the mountains while leaving all of their possessions behind. You will be called at the appointed time to leave your possessions behind as well and flee to My refuges to avoid being captured and killed by the one world people’s UN armies.



In the Gospel I spoke of the coming destruction of Jerusalem, and I also spoke that the people should recognize their time of visitation when this destruction would take place at the hands of the Romans.



You are seeing events lead up to America’s time of takeover when you will see your own visitation leading up to the Antichrist’s declaration of power. Be forewarned that once martial law comes, you will need to flee to My refuges by following your guardian angels.


Prayer Group:



Jesus said: My people, this final bill has the public option that will undercut your existing health plans. There still could be amendments that could include payments for abortions. There will be a provision for a National Health card with a microchip that will be required for any treatment. This 2,000 page document still requires 60 votes and a joint bill to be passed again in both the House and the Senate. The taxes and conditions have yet to be highlighted, but it will bring big government into control of everyone’s health plan. This expense is beyond what your country can afford and it would probably be better not to pass.



Jesus said: My people, many of your workers are losing their pensions, health benefits, and even their jobs thanks to your greedy CEOs. Most of the cost cutting at your factories has been at the expense of workers losing hours, pay, benefits, and even layoffs that are still going on.



As your workers suffer, your executives are getting unusually rich pensions and salary bonuses, even when their companies are losing money. Even your Congress is investigating executive pay, especially for companies receiving taxpayer bailouts. Pray that there will be some equity in all salary levels and that your jobs could improve.



Jesus said: My people, you continue to see more severe earthquakes with many of them occurring under water. You have also witnessed several smaller tsunami waves. This increased number of earthquakes could be leading up to larger earthquakes with bigger waves resulting. Pray for My protection from these natural disasters and move away from those areas close to the ocean.



Jesus said: My people, there has been some indecision in supporting the current leaders of Afghanistan with your troops and that of other countries there. As America is withdrawing out of Iraq, there is concern how to limit America’s stay in Afghanistan.



These constant wars are wearing down your troops, even when there is no clear cut reason for being there. Pray for peace in these lands where Satan is constantly stirring up dissension among these countries.



Jesus said: My people, your financial woes are still challenging your people because of your high unemployment and many homes suffering through foreclosures. Your smaller banks are still failing and bankruptcies of individuals are on the increase. Many of your state governments are also struggling with constant deficits in their budgets because of poor investments and taking in less taxes.



These economic difficulties are not getting much better and many people are suffering as a result. Pray that your families will find a way to provide for your bare necessities. Call on My help and reach out to your families and friends who need financial help at this time.



Jesus said: My people, even though you will soon be preparing your Thanksgiving Dinner in your families, there are those around you who need food and clothing just to survive. Many of you have some surplus wealth that you could share with the hungry and the poor.



Bringing food or donations to your local food shelves is a worthy sacrifice to help those suffering from the recession and unemployment. In hard times it is harder to find donations to charities, so it may be more of a sacrifice to give up something you like for someone to have a meal to eat. You will be rewarded for your efforts and I thank you for helping Me in the poor.



Jesus said: My people, many Spanish speaking people have a great love for My Infancy as they pray to Me as Santo Nino . This is a nine day novena that precedes the Christmas celebration of My birth. Many prayers are answered through this novena and it would be good to read up on the prayers that are said at that time.



You all love little babies, and you could surely picture loving Me as a new born baby. You can pray to Me as an Infant King or a grown up King because I hear all of your prayers at any age. With Me there is no time as I exist in the eternal now. Share your intentions with Me when you make this novena to Me.



Friday, November 20, 2009



Jesus said: My people, in the vision you see the steel tracks that allow trains to carry heavy loads. In your tall buildings you use steel I beams to hold your buildings together. In a spiritual way I am your strength and support in all of your situations in life. You can always call on My help to get you through sicknesses and unemployment. I am at your side to provide for your every need, so just have faith and trust in My help.



Do not be concerned with being rich, but be satisfied that you are fed and have shelter. Even in hard times you may have to depend on your family for support as well. Be gracious in helping others to get by in their necessities. You can be My arms and legs to carry out what I want for your neighbor’s needs.



Jesus said: My people, this dragon undermining an American road is a sign of China as an evil force that will cause America grief in your economy with the dollar. China has many times threatened to try and change the dollar to another international currency as the standard of exchange. Their money and their holdings of American Treasury notes are losing value as America increases its debts and the selling of more Treasury notes.



As your Federal Reserve keeps expanding its balance sheet by buying Treasury notes, soon America will need to print more dollars to monetize your debt, thus adding to inflation. China is in control of the many goods that you buy and they could blackmail America by threatening to sell their goods to others and exchange their dollars for another currency.



Since America has little manufacturing, you would be ruined without a source of cheap goods and a place to sell your debt. China is still a communist nation with an ambition for world control, which is why they are using their wealth to expand their army, navy, and air force.



China could become more of a threat to Korea, Taiwan, and even Japan with a change in military strength. I am forewarning America that China is planning to undermine your economy and threaten your military power as well.



Saturday, November 21, 2009: (Presentation of Mary)





Jesus said: My people, many are taken up with the distractions of this world with all of their pleasures and comforts. A person of the world avoids suffering, the cross, prayer, and Confession. A person of the Spirit shuns worldly things and seeks only the spiritual things that will lead them to heaven. These are the two roads that every soul must choose between. Everyone also needs to see what is at the end of each road at your judgment to help choose the best outcome. This vision of hell in darkness and flames of fire is in store for those who ignore Me and indulge in all the pleasures of the world.



Those, who travel the narrow road through My footsteps of suffering, will detach themselves from the desires of this world, so they can have eternal joy with Me in the glories of heaven. After viewing both destinations, there can be only one obvious choice to want to be with Me in the Light. There is a price to pay in order to come to heaven because a holy life takes a life long work to overcome the desires of the body.



Following the desires of the soul leads you to My peace, but you must bear the evil one’s temptation to sin every day. This is the struggle that every soul must face, but your reward in heaven is far worth your effort. Those, who try and fall short in purgatory, will suffer in this purification to be with Me.



But those, who do not love Me and love the world instead, will find an eternity of grief in the darkness and flames of hell by their own choice. Wake up and follow Me before it may be too late and you will lose your soul to the evil one who will torment you for all eternity in hell.



Jesus said: My people, most people do not like the stink of a water treatment plant where it is hard to keep the smell from going into the air. In a spiritual way your souls also are hideous to Me by the sins in your soul. In order to cleanse the stench of your sinful souls, you need to come to Me in Confession where the priest can absolve your sins and you can ask for My forgiveness in your Act of Contrition.



I cleanse your sins and restore My graces in your soul so you are once again beautiful to look at. Many may think I cannot see your sins, but I see everything that you do and you cannot hide anything from Me. I know all of your sins and how much you need to be cleansed.



When you come to Me in Confession, you need to admit that you are a sinner and are in need of My forgiveness. Make a firm amendment not to repeat your sins, and not to live in a sinful lifestyle.



Sunday, November 22, 2009: (Christ the King)



Jesus said: My people, this celebration of My Kingship is not anything like your earthly kings. This picture that you have in your possession is a miracle picture that portrays the end times when souls will be judged. The sickle represents the time to gather the wheat of My faithful into the barn of heaven. It also is a time to gather the grapes of the evil ones to be cast into hell.



Many find it hard to believe that this event could happen in your lifetime. You have all the signs around you that the Antichrist is about to be declared as he will have a brief reign on the earth.



At the end of this coming tribulation I will bring My Comet of Chastisement to conquer all the evil ones. I will renew the earth and bring My faithful into My Era of Peace. Then after a long time, My faithful will be prepared to enter heaven. Then you will see Me in all of My glory as King of all of My creation.



Jesus said: My people, I thank all of you for coming to this shrine to honor My Kingship, even amidst the cold and your effort to travel here. I love all of you so much, which is why I am showing you My beating heart in My Sacred Heart. In today’s Gospel reading you were read the account of My Kingship before Pilate. This vision of Me in My crown of thorns is how you can appreciate My love for you in dying for your sins.



As you think of My death, you can also see how I suffered in this Shroud of Turin. I thank Alex for his mission in sharing My picture of My death in the shroud. I thank your people here again as you pray to stop your abortions which are weighing heavily against America. You celebrate My Kingship here every year, and I am grateful for all of your devotions and prayers.



Remember to keep your focus on Me as I walk with you through this life. For all those, who worship Me and follow My Commandments, you will one day see Me on My throne as I welcome all of My faithful home in heaven.



Monday, November 23, 2009: (St. Clement I)



Jesus said: My people, America is the largest dealer of weapons in the world that is supported by your Industrial-Defense complex. These weapons makers get their money from your taxpayers because your Department of Defense money is the largest portion of your entire National Budget.



You spend billions of dollars every year developing the latest and most expensive weapons available. Usually these weapons are overkill against smaller countries. Instead of spending so much money on weapons and Defense, you could use that money to feed the poor and provide more worthwhile jobs to the unemployed.



You are preparing for Thanksgiving Day dinner and your thoughts should be focused more on helping and feeding people, instead of how to kill people.



Jesus said: My people, I am showing you this large picture frame because you need to know the big picture behind the current battle between good and evil. On the one side you have Satan and his demons getting the rich people to worship him and follow his orders. On the other side you have Me, My saints, and the angels encouraging people to repent of their sins and be converted.



Satan is allowed to control the rich and powerful in creating a death culture against man. He hates man and he is enabling evil people to promote abortions, euthanasia, constant wars, and man-made viruses to kill many. The one world people are also forming unions as the European Union and the North American Union. They will form unions on every continent and they will be joined together and given over to the Antichrist to control the world.



This reign of evil will be brief as I will bring My Comet of Chastisement to destroy all of the evil ones. I will protect My faithful and bring you into My Era of Peace. There will be peace without the temptations of the devil, as you will be perfected for heaven. Rejoice when you see these events take place, because you will soon see My return on the clouds.



Tuesday, November 24, 2009: (St. Andrew & Companions)



Jesus said: My people, in today’s Gospel I told My apostles that there would not be a stone left upon a stone when Jerusalem would be destroyed. They all wanted to know when I would return, but it is My choice when I will return at the appointed time known only to My Father.



This sign of destruction in your day will be when the Antichrist takes power and America will be taken over. I warned My people not to believe in the one who claims to be Me, because this is what the Antichrist will claim.



You will see an evil that you have never seen before during the coming tribulation. This time is coming in your lifetime, and I will vanquish all the evil ones while you are safe at My refuges. Then I will renew the earth in My Era of Peace. You truly are living in the end times as you are reading of My coming return.



Jesus said: My people, it is a blessing to you that each person is different and you have been given various skills to help people. One may be good at fixing cars, one at computers, or one at fixing houses. By helping each other with your skills, you are able to make a living for yourself. No matter how good you are at your trade or work, you should always give thanks to Me for giving you your gifts.



Do not be prideful in your accomplishments, but give glory to Me for all that you are able to do, and the opportunity to use your skills productively. You are able to store more treasure in heaven when you help people without taking payment for your work, and volunteering without being asked.



When you see someone in need, then take that opportunity to fulfill that need. When you help someone, you are helping Me in that person out of love.



Wednesday, November 25, 2009: (St. Catherine of Alexandria)



Jesus said: My people, over the years you have developed some bad habits of sin, and if you are sincere in your faith, you need to work on shedding these sins as a butterfly sheds its cocoon. You need to grow in your faith and perfect your spiritual life in preparation for your new life with Me. You will change first into a new life in My Era of Peace.



Finally, you will be prepared to be a saint in heaven which should be your eternal goal with Me. This metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly is eventually how your glorified body will be joined with your soul in your resurrection after the final judgment.



Many of you are looking forward to these changes from your earthly life. Walk with Me in living out your faith by following My Commandments and loving Me and your neighbor. You have Confession to cleanse your sins when you have need of My graces.



Jesus said: My people, your lives at times are like a train moving down a track. When you are following My laws and loving Me and your neighbor, you are on the right track to heaven. At times you may be side tracked by your own will that could lead you into various addictions. You had such a detour in your excessive computer programming.



Once you allow something to come between you and Me, it is hard to turn back to My ways. This is why it is important that you consecrate your lives over to Me, so I can lead you, and you will not get side tracked from your goal to heaven and following My Will.



Once you are safely back on the right track, then you will be comfortable in loving Me. My sacraments, as Penance and Holy Communion, are your food or fuel to keep your train running in grace. By keeping your life together with Me, you will reach the right destination for your soul in heaven.



Thursday, November 26, 2009: (Thanksgiving Day)



Jesus said: My people, you truly have many things to be thankful for, and especially you should be happy to have Me at Holy Communion in My Real Presence at every daily Mass. Be thankful to also have a priest to offer Holy Mass, the most beautiful prayer that I have given you.



You make many petitions in your prayers, but always remember to thank Me for answering your prayers. Be thankful also for your many gifts of life in your family and in all of My gifts to make your living possible. Your deacon even spoke of your problems as gifts, but this is harder to understand. It is your needs and the needs of the poor that can be seen as problems, but you need to reach out to the poor in helping them with food, clothing, and shelter.



You can make donations to your local food shelves or other charities that help the poor. When you share your gifts of time and money with others, it is your way of thanking Me for what you have been given. Some even believe in tithing ten per cent of their income to charity and supporting My Church. For all that you do for people out of love, you will have your reward in heaven.



Friday, November 27, 2009



Jesus said: My people, many will tell you that the world will continue as it is, but those, who are the wise virgins, have read the signs of My coming in the Scriptures and know that I am truly coming soon. The computer chips, that are the mark of the beast, are controlling people already. The Antichrist, that I have shown you, is about to declare himself.



The unions are being formed to be given over to the Antichrist. You are seeing the famines, earthquakes increasing, and the man-made pestilence diseases. The increase in knowledge and the extent of evil in the world are the signs to know that the end is near for the earth as you know it. Rejoice as you see these things happening, because soon you will see My return.



(Camille’s Mass) At Holy Name after Communion I saw Camille as a younger man and he had Jesus sprinkle a water of graces on all of us present at the Mass. Camille said: I thank you for all the Masses that you had said for My soul. It was this anticipation of graces outside of time that allowed Me into heaven so soon. Now that I am in heaven, I will help all of you from heaven.



I started by having Jesus bless all of you with His baptismal waters of grace. Take good care of Lydia in comforting her over my leaving. I am confirming all of the activity that you have seen with the chairlifts and the lights.



Saturday, November 28, 2009



Jesus said: My people, in the readings I have warned you to be prepared for the days of tribulation when the evil ones of the world will test you and persecute you. You will need to go to My refuges of protection where My angels will watch over you and provide for your food and shelter.



The readings are announcing My coming in the end days and you need to have your souls prepared in grace to meet Me. You are changing over to a new Church Year with this last Mass of the year. Now you will start preparing for Christmas with the beginning of the Advent Season. Rejoice every year that you celebrate My coming at Christmas, and rejoice when the tribulation is ending, as I will return to the earth in glory.



Sunday, November 29, 2009: (First Sunday of Advent)





Jesus said: My people, today starts your Advent Season and many are more focused on buying gifts for Christmas. Yet in the Gospel reading it speaks more of the coming kingdom and My return to the earth. Before My return, you are seeing a black image of evil and suffering in the tribulation.



The Antichrist will appear first and I have given you many messages about preparing to leave for My refuges before he tries to kill you. My kingdom is already on the earth in My sacraments and in the Holy Spirit’s dwelling in each soul. The reading speaks of how I will come in glory on the clouds to defeat all evil and bring My Light of goodness to dispel the darkness of evil.



You know the end of this story as evil will have only a brief reign before I will vanquish Satan, the Antichrist, and all the demons and evil people, and cast this lot into hell. Just as you are anticipating Christmas during Advent, you are also anticipating My coming on the clouds to usher in My Era of Peace.



Monday, November 30, 2009: (St. Andrew)



Jesus said: My people, in today’s Gospel I was calling My apostles, who were fishermen, and I told them that from now on they would be fishers of men.



My call is not limited to My apostles. I call many young men to be priests, and I call My lay apostolates to all be evangelists of My Gospel to bring My Word to all the nations. Through My faithful I want everyone in the world to at least have the opportunity to hear My Word and be saved. The more souls that you can bring to Me are the more souls that can be saved from hell.



You are in a battle for souls, and do not cease struggling to bring as many souls as possible to My salvation of them. You have been given the gift of faith through your parents or friends, so pass on this gift of faith to others so they can enjoy the same love relationship with Me as you have.



Jesus said: My people, ever since Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden of Eden, men and women had to work by the sweat of their brow to feed themselves and provide for their clothing and shelter. Except for the elderly, young children, the unemployed, and those with disabilities, everyone else is expected to keep a job and pay for their own bills.



As more manufacturing jobs are shipped overseas to cheap labor, your people can only find cheaper jobs, and your standard of living has declined as a result. There is a lot of unfairness in your society, but most people are able to survive on their wages. It is unfortunate that your job losses and lack of benefits are desired by your corporations on Wall Street.



Labor costs are always the target against the worker, instead of cutting the high salaries and bonuses of your executives. Those, who are stealing money from their workers, will have to pay for this abuse at their judgment. Because of your low wages many of your workers need two or three jobs per family in order to pay their bills. Trust and have faith in Me that I will see to your essential needs, but do not focus only on amassing this world ‘s possessions and wealth. Live to follow My ways, and help your neighbor when you can.



Tuesday, December 1, 2009



Jesus said: My people, you are preparing for Christmas, but you are also waiting in anticipation of My Warning and My Era of Peace. Christmas is a memorial of My birth many years ago.



This vision of a bicycle wheel spinning rapidly is a sign of the events of your life review that you will see in your Warning experience. This illumination of conscience will be an opportunity for grace and a time to change your life closer to how I want you to live. Once you see your sins as I see them, then you will have a desire to repent and change your sinful habits.



This view from Isaiah in the first reading is a preview of My Era of Peace, once I have conquered evil and have renewed the earth. Rejoice as you look forward to these events that will prepare you for the tribulation, and show you My perfected world after My victory in My Era of Peace.

Medjugorje Day By Day Jan 01 - SOLEMNITY OF MARY, MOTHER OF GOD



And on New Year's Day in 1987, she said:



Dear children, today, the first day of the New Year, I invite all of you to live the messages which I give you. You know, dear children, that because of you, I have stayed here this long in order to teach you to walk on the road to holiness.



Our Lady has asked that we help spread Her messages!
Lets renew our commitment to help Our Lady in this new year.



Saturday, Solemnity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God
& World Day of Peace—Jan. 1:



"In the womb of His [Jesus] Mother His rest was secret, unfelt, unseen, making all who would live in Him into Himself . . . . He is as silent, as secret and hidden, in the Host as He was in Advent . . . He trusts himself to His creatures in the Host as He trusted himself to Our Lady" (Caryll Houselander).



Sunday, Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord—Jan. 2:




"`They fell down and worshipped Him' (Mt 2:11). While the Magi acknowledged and worshipped the baby that Mary cradled in her arms as the One awaited by the nations and foretold by prophets, today we can also worship Him in the Eucharist, and acknowledge Him as our Creator, our only Lord and Savior" (Pope John Paul II, August 6, 2004).



Monday, Most Holy Name of Jesus—Jan. 3:
"All the nations shall come to adore You and glorify Your name, O Lord" (Ps 86:9).



Mother Teresa -
We must give Jesus absolute reign in our homes. Once we have Jesus with us, then we can give Him to others.



Meditations by Padre Pio -

Through Divine Grace we are at the beginning of a new year. God alone knows whether we shall reach the end of it, so we should spend it in reparation for the past and in preparing for the future with good resolutions. Good works go hand in hand with good intentions.



Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
Justification is judged by God's standards, not ours!



"The justification for cutting corners, taking bribes and other forms of dishonesty is twofold. First is, "Everybody's doing it." The assumption here is that right and wrong are questions merely of mob judgment, rather than of standards. It forgets that right is right if nobody is right, and wrong is wrong if everybody is wrong."



St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
When I was left alone with the Blessed Virgin, she instructed me concerning the interior life. She said, The soul's true greatness is in loving God and in humbling oneself in His presence, completely forgetting oneself and believing oneself to be nothing; because the Lord is great, but He is well-pleased only with the humble, He always opposes the proud. (1711)



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.



Jan 1 - SOLEMNITY OF MARY, MOTHER OF GOD



In October of 1981, the Blessed Virgin gave the following message:
I am the Mother of God and the Queen of Peace (First Years Oct 12, 1981).
And on New Year's Day in 1987, she said:



Dear children, today, the first day of the New Year, I invite all of you to live the messages which I give you. You know, dear children, that because of you, I have stayed here this long in order to teach you to walk on the road to holiness.



Therefore, dear children, pray without ceasing and live the messages I am giving you, for I do it with great love towards God and you. (Weekly Message January 1, 1987).



Living anew the messages during the New Years speaks of fresh beginnings. From Paul's letter to the Colossians:



You have stripped off the old self with its practices and have clothed yourselves with the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of its creator (Col. 3:9-10),



And from 2 Corinthians:



So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new (2 Cor 5:17).



Reflection:



It's appropriate that on this New Year's Day, Our Lady calls us to live her messages anew, for she knows they are the key to the spiritual gifts we so desire, an abiding peace and happiness, a spirit of love.



Living the messages of prayer, peace, penance, and fasting means, as St. Paul says today, to be formed anew in the image of the Creator over time. It means a new perspective, a new attitude toward life and death, where, as Revelation says, "He shall wipe every tear from their eyes", and make all things new.



On this feast of Mary, the Mother of God, let us recommit ourselves to her messages and her plan of salvation, which she is giving us, as she says today, "with great love towards God". In the words of the poet Joseph Krauskoph:



Dawns another year,

Open it aright;

Thou shalt have no fear

In its fading light.

Application:



Today, offer Our Lady a special prayer of commitment to living her messages in this new year. If you have difficulty in living some particular message, ask for the special grace you need to practice it in the year ahead.



This is also the World Day of Prayer for Peace. Offer a rosary for this special intention which Mary emphasizes so much in Medjugorje.



Medjugorje Day By Day Dec 31 - WHEN YOU HEAR THE BELLS AT MIDNIGHT



At the same time, to another of the little seers in Jelena's prayer group, Jesus said the following:



When you hear the bells at midnight, you shall fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come.




"Called to continue before the Most Blessed Sacrament the Magi's adoration
at the Crib of Bethlehem, we ought to make ours the thought and love which
guided and sustained them. They began at Bethlehem what we are doing in the
presence of the Sacred Host . . . .



"The adoration of the Magi was a homage of faith and a tribute of love to
the Incarnate Word; such ought to be our Eucharistic adoration . . . .



"How fortunate we are to be able to share, through the Eucharist, the
happiness of Mary, of the Magi, and of the first disciples who offered gifts to
Jesus Christ! In the Eucharist we still have the poverty of Bethlehem to
relieve.



Oh! Yes! All the good things of grace and of glory come to us through
the divine Eucharist. Their fountainhead is at Bethlehem, which became a
heaven of love; they gathered volume all through the life of the Savior; and all
these rivers of grace, virtue, and merit empty into the ocean of this adorable
Sacrament, in which we possess them in all their fullness . . . .



"The Magi are our models, the first adorers. Let us be worthy of their
royal faith in Jesus Christ. Let us be heirs to their love, and one day we
will be heirs to their glory. Amen" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).



"Evil is not something superhuman, it's something less than human."



Mother Teresa - There are so many little things we can do for others that are so small many people forget about them.
But these aren't small things.
They show our love for Christ.


Meditations by Padre Pio -
The palm of victory is reserved only for those who fight up to the end. Therefore let us begin this year our Holy battle. God will assist us and crown us with eternal triumph.



Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
The animalistic nature of passion



"Passion has its seat in the body or the animal nature of man. It is the echo of the knowledge in our physical structure but it is not knowledge. Passion implies sensible changes, such as the flushing of the cheeks, the dilating of the pupils and the tensing of many of the muscles."



St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
A vision of the Mother of God. In the midst of a great brilliance, I saw the Mother of God clothed in a white gown, girt about with a golden cincture; and there were tiny stars, also of gold, over the whole garment, and chevron-shaped sleeves lined with gold.



Her cloak was sky-blue, lightly thrown over the shoulders. A transparent veil was delicately drawn over her head, while her flowing hair was set off beautifully by a golden crown which terminated in little crosses. On her left arm she held the Child Jesus. A Blessed Mother of this type I had not yet seen. Then she looked at me kindly and said: I am the Mother of God of Priests.



At that, she lowered Jesus from her arm to the ground, raised her right hand heavenward and said: O God, bless Poland, bless priests. Then she addressed me once again: Tell the priests what you have seen. I resolved that at the first opportunity [I would have] of seeing Father [Andrasz] I would tell; but I myself can make nothing of this vision. (1585)



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.



Dec 31 - WHEN YOU HEAR THE BELLS AT MIDNIGHT



The Mother of God speaks of peace in the new year:



Next year will be a year of peace not because men have named it so but because God has planned it. You will not have peace through presidents, but through prayer (Locutionist Jelena & Mirjana Dec 31, 1985)



At the same time, to another of the little seers in Jelena's prayer group, Jesus said the following:



When you hear the bells at midnight, you shall fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come. This year I will offer my peace to the world. But afterwards, I will ask where you were when I offered it (Locutionist Jelena & Mirjana Dec 31, 1985).



Five years later, on New Year's Eve in 1990, the Gospa said to Ivan's prayer group:



Dear children, tonight your Mother invites you to go together with me to the church in joy and prayerfulness (there was a special Mass at 11:30 p.m.) In tonight's special joy, pray in church for the intention of peace (Visionary Prayer Group Dec 31, 1990).



And in Romans, Paul echoes the Virgin's call to peace:



For the kingdom of God is not food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. The one who thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and has human approval. Let us then pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding (Rom 14:17-19).



Reflection:



The Queen of Peace fittingly closes the year with a call to peace. This has always been her central message, the primary reason for her apparitions in Medjugorje. And, with the prayers of her children, what wonders she has achieved! The fall of the Berlin Wall, the liberation of Eastern Europe, the collapse of Communism, the rebirth of the Russian republics, the rise of both democracy and the philosophy of human rights.



A new age of peace has dawned "not through the presidents, but through prayer". All of us who have helped Our Lady through prayer, fasting, and sacrifice; all of us who have tried to live her messages; all of us who have believed in her and trusted her we too have had a part in ushering in this new age.



In decades to come historians will puzzle over the cataclysmic events of the 1980's and 90's, trying to figure out how it all could have happened. And most will be unaware that it was the work of a young maiden on a hillside in Yugoslavia, who wept for peace. Gathering the faithful from every land, she worked miracles. She continues to this day.



Application:



On New Year's Eve in 1985, Jesus said, "When you hear the bells at midnight, you will fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come". Let us live that message tonight.





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
state your intention)."



Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!
