"
Do not be like the fig tree"
Wednesday, October 29, 2008
Dear Friends,
And Jesus told them this parable: “There once was a person who had a fig tree planted in his orchard, and when he came in search of fruit on it but found none, he said to the gardener, ‘for three years now I have come in search of fruit on this fig tree but have found none.
So cut it down. Why should it exhaust the soil?’
He said to him in reply, ‘Sir, leave it for this year also, and I shall cultivate the ground around it and fertilize it; it may bear fruit in the future. If not you can cut it down.’” Luke 13: 6 – 9
This morning I will celebrate Holy Mass at the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island at 9:30. I hope to go to the prayer meeting this evening at our local Church.
Here is another message from Our Lord to Joseph. Jesus, Our Saviour, spoke to him in these words, “Are you producing good fruit every day? What good is it to have a fig tree in your garden and it does not produce any fruit?
You would most probably cut it down and throw it on the fire. I am always ready to send you the graces necessary that you repent of your sins and turn to Me. Those who live in sin cannot produce good fruit because they are not in a state of grace.
What sort of fruit do I want from you? The various fruits I want from you are the following: to love God and your neighbour, to repent of your sins, to forgive those who hurt you, to accept to carry your cross, to help the poor, to stop cursing and taking My name in vain, to stop abusing alcohol, to stop taking drugs, to stop all sexual sins and to go to Church and to the sacraments regularly.
I call you to examine your conscience and see if you are following Me or not. I want you to be holy and to climb the mountain with Me. I want to be your friend so we can have a close and intimate relationship. You are My brother or sister and I love you and I send you many graces and gifts every day.
Open your heart to receive them at all times. Do not be like the fig tree that did not produce any fruit but be united with Me and bring forth every day all the beautiful fruit that you can produce. I bless you.”
Father Melvin
Medjugorje Day By Day Oct 28 - I GIVE YOU STRENGTH
"If you believe what you like in the Gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the Gospel you believe, but yourself." St. Augustine
"The Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ which suffered for our sins, which the Father raised up by his goodness" (St. Ignatius of Antioch).
Mother Teresa -
He taught us to learn from Him, to be meek and humble of heart.
If we are meek and humble, we will love each other as He loves us.
Meditations by Padre Pio - If we are calm and patient, we will not only find ourselves, but also our souls and, with it, God.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
Pride is the child of ignorance
"Our hatred of a person often decreases as we learn to know him better. A boy graduating from high school is generally not as humble as when he graduates from medical school. At eighteen he thought he knew it all; at twenty-eight he feels himself ignorant in the face of the medical science he has yet to acquire.
So it is with God. Because we do not pray or contemplate or love Him, we become vain and proud; but when we know Him better we feel a deep sense of dependence which tempers our false independence. Pride is the child of ignorance, humility the offspring of knowledge."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
I saw how unwillingly the Lord Jesus came to certain souls in Holy Communion. And He spoke these words to me: I enter into certain hearts as into a second Passion.(1598)
As I was praying to the living Heart of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament for the intention of a certain priest, Jesus suddenly gave me knowledge of His goodness and said to me, I will give him nothing that is beyond his strength. (1607)

Quote of the Day In those days he departed to the mountain to pray, and he spent the night in prayer to God. When day came, he called his disciples to himself, and from them he chose Twelve, whom he also named apostles: Simon, whom he named Peter, and his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the Son of Alphaeus, Simon who was called a Zealot and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor. -Lk 6:12-16
Today's Tidbit The Zealots were a group in Israel at the time of Christ who believed the Messiah would be a military leader to help Israel become an independent nation free from foreign control.
MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
Oct 28 - I GIVE YOU STRENGTH
In this message to the prayer group, the Blessed Virgin speaks of giving strength :
Dear children, your Mother loves you all. I'm happy to see you here, dear children. I give you love and ask you to give this love to others. Be peacemakers and help others to change their lives.
I give you strength, dear children. With this strength, you can bear anything. May this strength, you can bear anything. May this strength make you strong in all things. Because you need it, I give you strength (Visionary June 27, 1988),
The prophet Isaiah also promises strength to God's people :
He gives power to the faint, and strengthens the powerless. Even youths will faint and be weary, and the young will fall exhausted; but those who wait for the Lord will renew their strength, They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. --Isaiah 40 :29-31
Reflection:
Cardinal John Henry Newman (1801-1890) was one of the great pastors and scholars of the Catholic church in England. His writings included this prayer for strength :
May the Lord strengthen us all the day long. Till the shades lengthen and the evening comes, And the busy world is hushed and the fever of life is over, And our work is done. Then in his mercy may he give us A safe lodging, A holy rest, And peace at the last. Amen.
One of the blessings of our faith is that we need not rely solely on our own strength, for we have an inexhaustible reservoir in God himself. Further, as Our Lady says today, we are urged to draw from this reservoir whenever we are in need.
Application:
"With this strength, " the Virgin says, " you can bear anything. " Today, commit to memory the promise that when we are in need, the strength of Christ and Our Lady is available for the asking

Medjugorje Day By Day Oct 29 - THANK YOU FOR OPENING YOUR HEARTS
St. Gerard Majella, Religious, Patron of Expectant Mothers (1726-1755),
Italy—Oct. 16
"When he assisted during the day at the exposition of the Blessed Sacrament,
despite the permanent effort to hide himself from the view of others,
Gerard's countenance became luminous . . . . he seemed to be a seraph in the moment of adoration" (Antonio de Cosmio). He is the patron of expectant mothers
because of his miraculous intercession in times of crisis pregnancy.
Mother Teresa -
Perfect prayer does not consist in many words but in the fervor of the desire which raised the heart to Jesus.
Jesus has chosen us to be souls of prayer, and our actions are fruitful only if they are the true expression of earnest prayer. We must fix our gaze on Jesus, and if we work together with Jesus we will do much better.
Meditations by Padre Pio - The struggle we have prior to a good work we intend to do is like the antiphon that precedes the solemn psalm to be sung.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
There is only one standard by which we can judge
"Proud people think themselves to be better than they are, and when criticized always believe their neighbor is jealous or has a grudge against them. The humble know themselves as they really are, for they judge themselves as they judge time, by a standard outside themselves, namely, God and His Moral Law."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
Easter [April 17, 1938]. During Mass, I thanked the Lord Jesus for having deigned to redeem us and for having given us that greatest of all gifts; namely, His love in Holy Communion; that is, His very own Self. At that moment, I was drawn into the bosom of the Most Holy Trinity, and I was immersed in the love of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, These moments are hard to describe. (1670)
Write for the benefit of religious souls that it delights Me to come to their hearts in Holy Communion. But if there is anyone else in such a heart, I cannot bear it and quickly leave that heart, taking with Me all the gifts and graces I have prepared for the soul. And the soul does not even notice My going.
After some time, inner emptiness and dissatisfaction will come to her attention. Oh, if only she would turn to Me then, I would help her to cleanse her heart, and I would fulfill everything in her soul; but without her knowledge and consent, I cannot be the Master of her heart. (1683)
Dailys - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html -
Quote of the Day Believe that others are better than you in the depths of their soul, although outwardly you may appear better than they. -St. Augustine
Today's Tidbit Creed comes from the Latin word meaning "to believe." A creed is a profession of faith and a profession of essential beliefs. The Apostle's Creed and the Nicene Creed are the two creeds used during the celebration of the Liturgy. Several of the early councils of the Church also wrote creeds, but these have not gained the prominence of the Apostle's Creed and the Nicene Creed.
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.
Oct 29 - THANK YOU FOR OPENING YOUR HEARTS
Our Lady speaks of her joy in hearts open to God :
Dear children, today I thank you for opening your hearts. I am overwhelmed with joy for every heart that opens to God, especially in the parish. Rejoice with me! Continue to say all the prayers for the opening of sinful hearts, for not only do I desire it, but it is God's wish as well. (Weekly Message April 18, 1985).
And from the Book of Revelation :
Listen! I am standing at the door, knocking; if you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to you and eat with you, and you with me (Rev 3 :20).
Reflection:
There is a legend along the Rhine that on a dark and cold night a thinly clad, half-starved man was toiling along one of its rugged paths. He looked with wistful eyes at the bright light that shone from the windows of a great mansion, and listened to the sounds of feasting and joyful music.
He had left the home of his youth in early life, and heard nothing from there for many years. He knew not that the magnificent property was his father's, and that her was the heir. Desperate, he asked for shelter there. At the gate he found an old servant who discovered who he was. Instantly he was ushered into the gaiety. His robes were changed to those of the heir. He had discovered a heritage he did not know existed.
In the same way, one with a closed heart is unaware of all that belongs to him as a son of God. But once the heart is opened and the grace of God enlightens the soul, he discovers he is heir to the kingdom of God.
Application:
Today, pray for an ever greater openness to the Lord, and especially that sinful hearts may open to God's grace, as Our Lady asks of us.
Our Lady of All Nations to littlest of servants October 27, 2008

A Prayer of Adoration
By Scott P. Richert, About.com
In this moving prayer, we recall the redemptive quality of the Precious Blood of Jesus and adore the Precious Blood, which represents Christ's infinite love for all mankind.
To the Precious Blood of Jesus
O Precious Blood of Jesus, infinite price of sinful man's redemption, both drink and laver of our souls, Thou who dost plead continually the cause of man before the throne of infinite mercy; from the depths of my heart, I adore Thee, and so far as I am able, I would requite Thee for the insults and outrages which Thou dost continually receive from human beings, and especially from those who rashly dare to blaspheme Thee.
Who would not bless this Blood of infinite value? Who doth not feel within himself the fire and love of Jesus who shed it all for us? What would be my fate, had I not been redeemed by this divine Blood? Who hath drawn it from the veins of my Savior, even to the last drop? Ah, this surely was the work of love. O infinite love, grant that every heart and every tongue may be enabled to praise Thee, magnify Thee and give Thee thanks now and for evermore. Amen.
THE CHAPLET OF PROTECTION
(pray on regular rosary beads)
On the Crucifix - The Apostles' Creed
On the large bead - 1 Our Father
On the group of 3 small beads near the Crucifix:
On the first - 1 Hail Mary, in praise of God the Father
On the Second - 1 Hail Mary, in petition
On the third - 1 Hail Mary, in thanksgiving,
with confidence that your petition will be granted.
On the next large bead- "Holy God, Holy Omnipotent One, save us who dwell in this land."
Every Decade, on each of the 10 small beads -
"Jesus Savior, merciful Savior, spare your people."
On each large bead- "Holy God, Holy Omnipotent One, save us who dwell in this land."
At the end of the 5th decade -
"Son of God, Eternal Son, thank you for the things You have done." (3 times)

Dear Children of Humanity,
Allow Me to speak about the most fair and purest woman, so Immaculate and preserved without stain. She is your mentor, an advocate for the Truth. She directs you to My Son, enlightens you to know and to love the Trinity and to follow without knowing the way. How beautiful this fair Queen—so fair and beautiful that the angels plead that she would commission them on her behalf to your aid. They desire to hold your petitions and embrace them, to lay them at the Foot of the Throne.
How pure and loving a woman—so astute, wise and kind; so united through suffering, holy and humble, meek and patient! How blessed you are that the Most Holy Trinity has given to you the gift of this fairest Queen in this time of your need, to strengthen and to guide you, to point the way, to outline a safe path, to preserve you from harm, and to protect you from evil. In all of history throughout ages past, never has there been a Queen as pure as she! Esther led the way; Mary fulfilled the way.
For you who have eyes to see and ears to hear, could you be more blessed than to receive and to listen? All she has unveiled to you is unfolding! Are you dismayed, or perhaps, many even frightened? Are you astounded, or do you not care? Do you continue to desecrate, or do you change and have hope fulfilled with the faith of Love?
Do you not know that the angels in Heaven desire to have the power you have to suffer like unto My Son and shared by this most beloved, fair and humble servant and Queen? To love, in its purest form, is to suffer—not being distracted by fear, not being cowardly in times of challenge, but being strong, faith-filled, hopeful people of God.
Look to your most wonderful intercessor, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, who bore the Most Precious One of God!
The gift of life is given to you for all eternity by means of the woman whose “fiat,” sorrow, and suffering are greater than what the mind can comprehend. United to God and her Son, she is inseparable in suffering from Him Who redeemed the world. She, who in silence gave to the world, is your hope; and He is your salvation!
Look within and ponder, and it will be revealed to you a most wonderful enlightenment of your mind and heart.

Then your God spoke, " How many times have I told you that all electronics have the 'chip' so that evil men can hear your every word, know your whereabouts at all time?
It, (the) 'chip, is in cars, all vehicles, televisions, microwaves, articles from China, even your clothes and food! THE EYE OF SATAN AND ALL EVIL COHORTS OF HIS ARE CONSTANTLY UPON YOU!!!!
Stay clear of everyone who has the 'chip' already implanted under their skin!
The 'chip' is Satan's mark- - -666!!! It is the sign that you belong to him- -YOU HAVE SOLD YOUR SOUL!!! Be aware to whom you speak and where you speak EVIL IS EVERYWHERE!!! CLING TO ME AND TO ME ALONE!!!
This message is urgent! Obey My words. In a short time, the implanting of the 'the chip' under your skin will be mandatory!
Amen! My word IS truth! Be prepared to go to my refuge or to die for me! AMEN! I have spoken!!!"

My Dear Children of Humanity,
Here we are, another day, a gift to you. So many people suffering, wounded, searching, grasping each breath for life! Each day is another day, an opportunity for you to live in Truth; and yet, with all the many other distractions and circumstances in this world, very few come back to the Truth.
This is why there is chaos---because there is no peace in your heart. There is no freedom or joy, no comfort or holy indifference. So people scatter and do not gather. Peace and Justice meet, yes indeed, but the lack of faithfulness cannot allow it to fulfill its proper measure.
You have all been given an opportunity in Christianity, and your own world is dwindling away. Because of your free will, there is only so much that I will force on you. I give you gifts, and I protect you. At a moment’s plea, I come to grasp you and save you; but I cannot force more than that. If you do not desire the Truth and the Peace and the gift of Faith to live, then you are open to many other sources of persuasion.
Every day is a new opportunity to give yourself unconditionally to the Truth, regardless of your sinful ways. I, your God of Mercy, am that indeed! If you do not, then the pain and suffering, the fear and panic and confusion, and the division and scandals will only escalate.
As the prophets before and as the prophets now all join in unity to give glory to God through My Son, there will explode a wondrous tomorrow! Painful it might be for those who do not know the Truth and for those who do and refuse to accept it. For those who do know it and accept it, painful it might be; but the overall safety of their souls will be preserved, and the world will be brought forth to its proper place from its inception in Creation.
I love you. I am a patient God. I am a jealous God Who desires your heart. My Love for you is so immense that My own Son was sacrificed for your salvation.

Children of Humanity,
Blessings and grace to you! Receive and cooperate with this grace.
You act as if you know so much of the future’s events and what is needed for change; but truly, within yourselves, you do not! No one knows the future events or what really needs to be changed other than Myself, your Father.
You have been welcomed, invited and encouraged to unite in harmony, not to live in division; to live in ways of good moral values and ethics; and to slay your vices and silence your anger. And yet, so many of you pass this off and do not believe that My Words are for you.
It is better to believe than to doubt; for once you doubt, you allow forces to enter that will betray you and deceive you. If you doubt, then the enemy can overpower you, as has happened throughout history, even to my beloved ones. In times of war with the Philistines, when my beloved ones were to protect my Ark, they doubted and were overthrown. And yes, the Ark went into the hands of the enemy.
(Sam 4:1-11)
You must believe and live your faith, for the Truth will be revealed. Guard yourself in My Truth and be confident, so you will be able to be protected in all ways.
Peace. Do not receive my blessings in vain.

Children of Humanity,
Peace and blessings from Heaven!
I your Father love you, come to you and bless you. I give you everything that is good. I am your Creator, desiring you to be created for the fulfillment of the ultimate Truth---that being my Son Whom I gave to you unreservedly to be martyred, to be completely humiliated, to be beaten until nearly His last breath, and then to carry His own Cross to His execution which would be your freedom.
This explosion of Light is the Love of God! It is a "forestep" of the warmth of God to allow you to know how precious you are, how real God is, and how and why you were created---ultimately to fulfill the Plan of this world's creation. It is a step beyond, yet a step before an enlightenment, when all shall know and will have to choose. This Light is a Light of Love---an invitation.
And how do you prepare? Perhaps its best to look within, within your wounds, within life, and within your relationships and friendships. Look at how you want and desire to live. If it is at peace, you shall attain Peace. If it is with power, you shall fight the forces of humanity for this power. If it is with the Power of God, most dignified and loving, then you shall embrace humility. If it is in the Truth, you shall stand by the Truth until death. If it is a surrendering and abandonment, then you shall be fulfilled most abundantly and will be led at all levels to become a pillar of Light and an ambassador of Peace, a lamp that shall never be extinguished. And all shall move forward towards you for change, counseling and strength.
I love you. I love you so much that I have given My Son for you; and if you think this is not important enough to understand and you disregard it, then My special blessings are upon you for your strength when you realize the opportunity you have missed.
Peace.

The Feast of the Immaculate Conception of Mary
Dear Children of Humanity,
My Son's Heart is aflame, reaching out to the entire world with Love for you. I am with you; and even as I am with you, My Son and the Holy Spirit are with you, for we are One in the Holy Trinity.
Yet, so many differences! Even if there are differences, why is not there the possibility that as Christian people, children of Abraham whom I created, humanity cannot be blessed, give praise to their God Almighty, and form in unity and Love? How much longer will it be---day after day---that so many of you initially receive My Words, listen to them with your hearts aflame, and then, instead of practicing them, move forward and get enveloped in a different dimension which further divides the world.
My desire is for Love, love of you, love for you, and the Love within you. This Love within you goes forth to meet everyone out in the world. Anyone who desires to receive it receives God! Too much emphasis is placed on the miraculous, the signs of the times, and the desires and hopes of private intentions.
I am the God of yesterday and the God of today. I am Alpha and Omega. I am! No one can divide Me from yesterday or today or with their private intentions. I see within; and there, through your strength you have the ability, if you so choose, to rise and be the new column and pillar of Light.
Bring all---all to the Throne of God! For all are important. Every soul is important. It is not what you say, but what you do. It is not necessary to debate what is true and what is not. What is necessary is to live with the continuity of Love. If you know Love, and If Love knows you, then embraced as One you can only move forward in the Light of Love. Words mean nothing. Today your friend is near. Tomorrow your friend may disappear. What is important is the Love, there forever, cherishing and living in the Light and Truth of God.
Vigilance, prudence, temperance, patience, humility and the complete surrender to My Divine Will are the ultimate end of gratification and the ultimate beginning.
I love you, and I bless you. I thank you for your patience in reading and listening to My Words.

My Dear Children of Humanity,
You are given life. What you do with your life is the end of the story. This world was given life to use it, to build on it, and to graciously develop all good things. What you do with your life, through the gifts given to you, is the end point of all of your life and its worth.
If you people listen to My Words and receive My gifts, and yet ignore the events surrounding them, whether it be an awakening or whether it be perdition, then how can it be that you and so few recognize the Creator's Hand?
My Love for you and for all in creation has been but a footprint of My Love because so many people ignore Me and My gifts, and because of free will. The outcome results in the destruction by human hands. If all would but receive the grace and recognize the Source from where Life and Love stem, then all would be safe.
What is it that you desire---that you are afraid to receive because you are afraid to ask or because of your sinful ways?
I am a God Who loves and continues to give and mercifully will forgive. I will give and give, and will forgive and forgive; but what I ask for is attention and action. If all are indifferent in their ways, then I have no choice other than to get humanity's attention.
So much to give, and so few willing to receive. Yet, so many of you say, "Yes" you are with me and desire to receive; but then when I ask, you are afraid. "Is it from God or is it of me?" or "I will, but…."----and then you turn inwardly and out of fear do not respond.
When I ask and I give, then I expect. If you do not give in return, then you lose the little you have. Those who give and trust gain more, and they will be expected to give and give even more. More is given to those who ask and respond. To those who do not, the little they receive will be taken away.
I love you, and I bless you. The end of the story, the final chapter depends on your free will.
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!
