Mother Teresa  -

Jesus knows the countless hungers of man, and He gives of Himself.
What a gift!
What proof of His love!
What assurance for us!

Padre Pio -
I hate sin! Our country would be fortunate if, as mother of our rights, it would perfect the laws and customs in the light of honesty and Christian principles.
 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."
St. Faustina's diary  http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html  -

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 soul is able to receive My grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence.      (1220)

O humility, lovely flower, I see how few souls possess you. Is it because you are so beautiful and at the same time so difficult to attain? O yes, it is both the one and the other. Even God takes great pleasure in her. The floodgates of heaven are open to a humble soul, and a sea of graces flows down upon her. O how beautiful is a humble soul! From her heart, as from a censer, rises a varied and most pleasing fragrance which breaks through the skies and reaches God himself, filling His Most Sacred Heart with joy. God refuses nothing to such a soul; she is all-powerful and influences the destiny of the whole world. God raises such a soul up to His very throne, and the more she humbles herself, the more God stoops down to her, pursuing her with His graces and accompanying her at every moment with His omnipotence. Such a soul is most deeply united with God. O humility, strike deep roots in my whole being. O Virgin most pure, but also most humble, help me to attain deep humility. Now I understand why there are so few saints; it is because so few souls are deeply humble.       (1306)

Quote of the Day The Church in Vietnam is alive and vigorous, blessed with strong and faithful bishops, dedicated religious, and courageous and committed lay people... The Church in Vietnam is living out the gospel in a difficult and complex situation with remarkable persistence and strength. -Statement of three U.S. archbishops returning from Vietnam in January 1989

Today's Tidbit The word "Christ" comes from a Greek translation of the Hebrew term "Messiah." This title of Jesus means the "anointed of God."

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.

NOV 24 - CONSECRATION TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY

Given to the young locutionists, Jelena and Mirijana:

I give you my heart. Accept it! I do not wish to distress you, nor to stop talking to you, but know that I cannot stay always with you. You must realize this. In the meantime, I wish to be constantly with you, with the heart. It is necessary to pray a great deal, and not to say, "If we have not prayed today, it is nothing serious" (Locutionists Jelena & Mirijana October 29, 1983).

And from Luke's gospel:

But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart (Lk 2:19).

Reflection:

Our Lady had spoken of her heart and her love for us many times in Medjugorje. "Consecrate yourself to the Immaculate Heart," she said in August of 1983. And in December of the same year: "Tomorrow [Feast of the Immaculate Conception] will be a truly blessed day for you, if every moment is consecrated to my Immaculate Heart." "My heart is full of grace and love. My heart is the gift I give you," she said in June of 1987. There is great peace as well as great power in the consecration, for as we give our hearts and lives to the Blessed Mother, she gives her own life and all that this entails to us.

Application:

Putting Our Lady's words into action, let us now consecrate ourselves to the Immaculate Heart, using the prayer she dictated to Jelena for that purpose:

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, overflowing with goodness, show us your love. May the flame of your heart, O Mary, descend upon all people. We love you so very much. Impress true love in our hearts. May our hearts yearn for you. O Mary, sweet and humble of heart. Remember us even when we sin. You know that we are all sinners. Through your most sacred and motherly heart, heal us of every spiritual illness. Make us capable of realizing the beauty of your maternal heart, and in this way, may we be converted by the flame of your heart. Amen

"Make a daily Holy Hour in the presence of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament that Christ may reign in the hearts and souls of men." (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen)
St. Monica, Wife, Mother, North Africa, (332-387), Feast, Aug. 27
Wife of a pagan and mother of three, one a prodigal son. Through her devotion and intercessory prayer to Jesus in the Eucharist, her husband converted shortly before he died. Her wayward son became St. Augustine, due to her faithful perseverance in prayer.


Mother Teresa  -

Love, tenderness, and compassion are real justice.
Justice without love is not justice.
Love without justice is not love.

Meditations by Padre Pio -

Why is there evil in the world? Listen carefully. There is a mother who is embroidering. Her son sitting on a low stool sees her work, but upside down. He sees the knots of the embroidery; the tangled threads, and says: "Mother, what are you doing? Your work is not at all clear?"

Then the mother lowers the embroidery frame and shows the right side of her work. Each color is in its place and the variety of threads form a harmonious design.

So, we are seeing the reverse side of the embroidery. We are sitting on the low stool.
 

 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  -

June 30, 1937. Today, the Lord said to me, I have wanted to exalt this Congregation many times, but I am unable to do so because of its pride. Know, My daughter, that I do not grant My graces to proud souls, and I even take away from them the graces I have granted.      (1170)

It so happened that I fell again into a certain error, in spite of a sincere resolution not to do so-even though the lapse was a minor imperfection and rather involuntary-and at this I felt such acute pain in my soul that I interrupted my work and went to the chapel for a while. Falling at the feet of Jesus, with love and a great deal of pain, I apologized to the Lord, all the more ashamed because of the fact that in my conversation with Him after Holy Communion this very morning I had promised to be faithful to Him. Then I heard these words: If it hadn't been for this small imperfection, you wouldn't have come to Me. Know that as often as you come to Me, humbling yourself and asking My forgiveness, I pour out a superabundance of graces on your soul, and your imperfection vanishes before My eyes, and I see only your love and your humility. You lose nothing but gain much...      (1293)

Quote of the Day Charity unites us to God... There is nothing mean in charity, nothing arrogant. Charity knows no schism, does not rebel, does all things in concord. In charity all the elect of God have been made perfect. -Pope St. Clement I

Today's Tidbit The word "Eucharist" comes from Greek roots meaning thanks giving.

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


 Nov 23 - I CALL YOU TO OFFER SACRIFICES

Today Our Lady speaks of one of the core virtues of Christian life:

Dear children, today I thank you again for everything that you have accomplished for me during these past days. I thank you especially, dear children, for the sacrifices you have offered this last week. Dear children, do not forget that I desire sacrifices from you so I can help you and keep Satan at a distance. And so I call you again to offer sacrifices in special reverence toward God (Weekly Message September 18, 1986).

In Hebrews, Paul speaks of the effects of the greatest sacrifice:

But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, "he sat down at the right hand of God," and since then has been waiting "until his enemies would be made a footstool for his feet." For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified (Heb 10:12-14).

Reflection:

In Pompeii the body of a crippled boy was found with his lame foot. Round his body was a woman's arm, bejeweled. The great stream of fire suddenly issuing from the volcano had driven a terror stricken crowd for refuge. The woman had evidently taken pity on the cripple. Only the arm outstretched to save was saved itself.

The arm of the Lord protects his people. He draws us to himself to save all of us. We are never too insignificant for his rescue. A saying goes: "If you were the only person left on earth, Christ would die for you alone." Every soul is priceless in the sight of God.

Each of us belongs to the creator, we are his flesh and blood. His salvation is directed to every one of us. No one is left out. As St. Paul writes: "For as all die in Adam, so all will be made alive in Christ" (1Cor 15:22).

Application:

With the sacrifice of Christ as our great example, let us try to live Our Lady's message today: "And so I call you again to offer your sacrifices in special reverence to God."

ST. JOHN BOSCO'S DREAM (VISION) OF HELL - Part 2 of 3


ST. JOHN BOSCO'S DREAM (VISION) OF HELL

*The Road to Hell



(Prophetic Dream of St. John Bosco 1868 A.D.)

We continued our descent, the road now becoming so frightfully steep that it was
almost impossible to stand erect. And then, at the bottom of this precipice, at
the entrance of a dark valley, an enormous building loomed into sight, its
towering portal, tightly locked, facing our road. When I finally got to the
bottom, I became smothered by a suffocating heat, while a greasy, green-tinted
smoke lit by flashes of scarlet flames rose from behind those enormous walls
which loomed higher than mountains.

"Where are we? What is this?" I asked my guide.

"Read the inscription on that portal and you will know."

I looked up and read these words: "The place of no reprieve." I realized that we
were at the gates of Hell. The guide led me all around this horrible place. At
regular distance bronze portals like the first overlooked precipitous descents;
on each was an inscription, such as: "Depart from me, ye cursed, into
everlasting fire, which was prepared for the devil and his angels." (Matthew 25:
41) "Every tree that yielded not good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be
cast into the fire." (Matthew 7: 19)

I tried to copy them into my notebook, but my guide restrained me: "There is no
need. You have them all in Holy Scripture. You even have some of them inscribed
in your porticoes."

At such a sight I wanted to turn back and return to the Oratory. As a matter of
fact, I did start back, but my guide ignored my attempt. After trudging through
a steep, never-ending ravine, we again came to the foot of the precipice facing
the first portal. Suddenly the guide turned to me. Upset and startled, he
motioned to me to step aside. "Look!" he said.

I looked up in terror and saw in the distance someone racing down the path at an
uncontrollable speed. I kept my eyes on him, trying to identify him, and as he
got closer, I recognized him as one of my boys. His disheveled hair was partly
standing upright on his head and partly tossed back by the wind. His arms were
outstretched as though he were thrashing the water in an attempt to stay afloat.
He wanted to stop, but could not. Tripping on the protruding stones, he kept
falling even faster. "Let's help him, let's stop him," I shouted, holding out my
hands in a vain effort to restrain him.

"Leave him alone," the guide replied.

"Why?"

"Don't you know how terrible God's vengeance is? Do you think you can restrain
one who is fleeing from His just wrath?"

Meanwhile the youth had turned his fiery gaze backward in an attempt to see if
God's wrath were still pursuing him. The next moment he fell tumbling to the
bottom of the ravine and crashed against the bronze portal as though he could
find no better refuge in his flight.

"Why was he looking backward in terror?" I asked.

"Because God's wrath will pierce Hell's gates to reach and torment him even in
the midst of fire!"

As the boy crashed into the portal, it sprang open with a roar, and instantly a
thousand inner portals opened with a deafening clamor as if struck by a body
that had been propelled by an invisible, most violent, irresistible gale. As
these bronze doors -- one behind the other, though at a considerable distance
from each other -- remained momentarily open, I saw far into the distance
something like furnace jaws sprouting fiery balls the moment the youth hurtled
into it. As swiftly as they had opened, the portals then clanged shut again. For
a third time I tried to jot down the name of that unfortunate lad, but the guide
again restrained me. "Wait," he ordered.

"Watch!"

Three other boys of ours, screaming in terror and with arms outstretched, were
rolling down one behind the other like massive rocks, I recognized them as they
too crashed against the portal. In that split second, it sprang open and so did
the other thousand. The three lads were sucked into that endless corridor amid a
long-drawn, fading, infernal echo, and then the portals clanged shut again. At
intervals, many other lads came tumbling down after them. I saw one unlucky boy
being pushed down the slope by an evil companion. Others fell singly or with
others, arm in arm or side by side. Each of them bore the name of his sin on his
forehead. I kept calling to them as they hurtled down, but they did not hear me.
Again the portals would open thunderously and slam shut with a rumble. Then,
dead silence!

"Bad companions, bad books, and bad habits," my guide exclaimed, "are mainly
responsible for so many eternally lost."

The traps I had seen earlier were indeed dragging the boys to ruin. Seeing so
many going to perdition, I cried out disconsolately, "If so many of our boys end
up this way, we are working in vain. How can we prevent such tragedies?"

"This is their present state," my guide replied, "and that is where they would
go if they were to die now."

"Then let me jot down their names so that I may warn them and put them back on
the path to Heaven."

"Do you really believe that some of them would reform if you were to warn them?
Then and there your warning might impress them, but soon they will forget it,
saying, 'It was just a dream,' and they will do worse than before. Others,
realizing they have been unmasked, receive the sacraments, but this will be
neither spontaneous nor meritorious; others will go to confession because of a
momentary fear of Hell but will still be attached to sin."

"Then is there no way to save these unfortunate lads? Please, tell me what I can
do for them."

"They have superiors; let them obey them. They have rules; let them observe
them. They have the sacraments; let them receive them."

Just then a new group of boys came hurtling down and the portals momentarily
opened. "Let's go in," the guide said to me.

I pulled back in horror. I could not wait to rush back to the Oratory to warn
the boys lest others might be lost as well.

"Come," my guide insisted. "You'll learn much. But first tell me: Do you wish to
go alone or with me?" He asked this to make me realize that I was not brave
enough and therefore needed his friendly assistance.

"Alone inside that horrible place?" I replied. "How will I ever be able to find
my way out without your help?" Then a thought came to my mind and aroused my
courage. Before one is condemned to Hell, I said to myself, he must be judged.
And I haven't been judged yet!

"Let's go," I exclaimed resolutely. We entered that narrow, horrible corridor
and whizzed through it with lightning speed. Threatening inscriptions shone
eerily over all the inner gateways. The last one opened into a vast, grim
courtyard with a large, unbelievably forbidding entrance at the far end. Above
it stood this inscription:

"These shall go into everlasting punishment." (Matthew 25: 46) The walls all
about were similarly inscribed. I asked my guide if I could read them, and he
consented. These were the inscriptions:

"He will give fire, and worms into their flesh, and they may burn and may feel
forever." (Judith 16: 21)

"The pool of fire where both the beast and the false prophet shall be tormented
day and night forever and ever." (Apocalypse 20: 9-10)

"And the smoke of their torments shall ascend up forever and ever." (Apocalypse
14: 11)

"A land of misery and darkness, where the shadow of death, and no order, but
everlasting horror dwelleth." (Job 10: 22)

"There is no peace to the wicked." (Isaias 47: 22)

"There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." (Matthew 8:12)

While I moved from one inscription to another, my guide, who had stood in the
center of the courtyard, came up to me.

"From here on," he said, "no one may have a helpful companion, a comforting
friend, a loving heart, a compassionate glance, or a benevolent word. All this
is gone forever. Do you just want to see or would you rather experience these
things yourself?"

"I only want to see!" I answered.

"Then come with me," my friend added, and, taking me in tow, he stepped through
that gate into a corridor at whose far end stood an observation platform, closed
by a huge, single crystal pane reaching from the pavement to the ceiling. As
soon as I crossed its threshold, I felt an indescribable terror and dared not
take another step. Ahead of me I could see something like an immense cave which
gradually disappeared into recesses sunk far into the bowels of the mountains.
They were all ablaze, but theirs was not an earthly fire with leaping tongues of
flames. The entire cave --walls, ceiling, floor, iron, stones, wood, and coal --
everything was a glowing white at temperatures of thousands of degrees. Yet the
fire did not incinerate, did not consume. I simply can't find words to describe
the cavern's horror. "The nourishment thereof is fire and much wood: the breath
of the Lord as a torrent of brimstone kindling it." (Isaias 30: 33)

Message to Louise Nov. 20,2007

HYPERCRITICAL!
Message via L., V+J
November 20, 2007- - -12:50 P.M.

L. began to receive a message from God and said, "Jesus, please cover me with
Your Most Precious Blood."
Then your God and Father spoke, " The holiday season, as you call it, is upon
you. It begins this Thursday with Thanksgiving.

The majority of you will celebrate by over eating, over drinking, watching
parades and football. So very few of My people will begin the day with Holy
Mass. Even fewer will say a prayer of gratitude before eating.

It is no longer a day of thanks to God, your Father, for all the gifts I
have showered on you. Instead, it is a day of gluttony and sports. I AM NOT
remembered!

If you do not sincerely thank Me I WILL take all blessings from you. Only
then will you realize what abundance you HAD.

This holiday season, this holy season, will never be forgotten! Much will
begin. Much willl occur. As you do unto Me so I will do unto you. I give you
My word on it!

Over eating and over drinking IS GLUTTONY and GLUTTONY IS A SIN!!! You will
shop and go into debt but what will you give to Me, your God and what will you
bring to the Manger to give to your Baby Savior, Jesus- - - My ONLY Son?
Ignore Us and We will leave you alone, not to know who you are.

Begin Thursday, Thanksgiving to give thanks to your Triune God for all you
have and continue each day of your life OR I will soon withdraw My Hour of
Mercy- - -gifts will be NO MORE!

This IS THE HOUR to return to Me! Amen, I HAVE spoken!!!"

Note:mk
Remember everything is always conditional depending upon our prayers. God
sometimes changes His mind because of our prayers for our situations. Remember
gratitude is the key to His Heart. We must praise even when we are suffering!

Two elderly, excited Southern women were sitting together in the front pew of church listening to a fiery preacher.

When this preacher condemned the sin of stealing, these two ladies cried out at the tops of their lungs, "AMEN, BROTHER!"

When the preacher condemned the sin of lust, they yelled again, "PREACH IT, REVEREND!"

And when the preacher condemned the sin of lying, they jumped to their feet and screamed, "RIGHT ON, BROTHER! TELL IT LIKE IT IS... AMEN!"

But when the preacher condemned the sin of gossip, the two got very quiet.

One turned to the other and said, "He's quit preaching and now he's meddlin'."
 
Pope John Paul II -

Mons. Maurillo Kreiger, former bishop of Florianopolis (Brazil), visited Medjugorje four times. His first visit was in 1986. He writes as follows:
In 1988, I was with eight other bishops and thirty three priests on spiritual retreat in the Vatican. The Holy Father knew that many of us were going to Medjugorje afterwards. After a private mass with the Pope, before leaving Rome, he said, without having been asked anything, "Pray for me in Medjugorje". On another occasion, I told the Pope "I am going to Medjugorje for the fourth time". He concentrated his thoughts and said, "Medjugorje, Medjugorje, it's the spiritual heart of the world". On the same day I spoke with other Brazilian bishops and the Pope at lunch time and I asked him: Your holiness, can I tell the visionaries that you send your blessing?" He answered: "Yes yes", and embraced me. http://www.medjugorje.org/pope.htm

Mother Teresa -  

We are all called to be saints.
We all have been created in the image of God to love and to be loved.
 
Meditations by Padre Pio -

 Place all your worries in God alone, because He has the greatest care of you, and those three angelic children with whom he has blessed you. By their conduct, these children will be a consolation to you during your lifetime. Take care, not so much of their scientific as of their moral education. And you should take this very seriously, and guard it as the pupil of your eye. As you educate their mind with good studies, assure the education of their hearts, along with that of our holy religion; one without the other causes a mortal wound to the human heart.

Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
Himself to death in order to save others."

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

 -Today, as God's Majesty swept over me, my soul understood that the Lord, so very great though He is, delights in humble souls. The more a soul humbles itself, the greater the kindness with which the Lord approaches it. Uniting himself closely with it, He raises it to His very throne. Happy is the soul whom the Lord himself defends. I have come to know that only love is of any value; love is greatness; nothing, no works, can compare with a single act of pure love of God.       (1092)

Nov 22 - CONTINUE TO GROW

The following was given to the young Locutionists for their prayer group:

Each member of the group is like a flower; and if someone tries to crush you, you will grow and continue to grow even more. If someone puts you down even a little, you will recover. And if someone pulls a petal, you will continue to grow as though you were complete (Locutionists Jelena & Mirijana June 21, 1984).

And from Paul's letter to the Galatians:

So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest time, if we do not give up (Gal 6:9).

Reflection:

Sometimes we are lamps without light, extinguished, but with possibilities not realized. Well, I have come to light a flame in your hearts, should the disappointments you have suffered, the expectations that have not come true, have put it out. I want to say to each of you that you have capacities, often unsuspected, sometimes made even greater and more vigorous by hard experience.

These words of hope form Pope John Paul II speak of a great truth that hope , far from being some vague, ethereal virtue, is instead a product of practical, learned experience.

Experience is not just the best teacher; it is the only teacher. As we look back at our trials and hardships, we realize that, rather than being tragic and destructive, our difficulties have given us endurance, resilience, and patience. This is the direct outcome of going through trials. This is where hope comes from. This is where God sheds his love right where we always need him the most. It is why we have "unsuspected capacities," as the Holy Father says, why we have hope.

Application:

Today the Mother of God gives us a message of profound hope: in times of trial or suffering, we will not be crushed, but will recover even stronger "and continue to grow more and more." Today, give over to her any present difficulties, trusting in her help.

. JOHN BOSCO'S DREAM (VISION) OF HELL - Part 1 of 3

The Holy Saint John Bosco had a Prophetic Vision of Hell in 1868 A.D. (*which is
recorded in its entirety below)

Many of the dreams of St. John Bosco could more properly be called visions, for
God used this means to reveal His will for the Saint and for the boys of the
Oratory, as well as the future of the Salesian Congregation. Not only did his
dreams lead and direct the Saint, they also gave him wisdom and guidance by
which he was able to help and guide others upon their ways. He was just nine
years of age when he had his first dream that laid out his life mission. It was
this dream that impressed Pope Pius IX so much that he ordered St. John Bosco to
write down his dreams for the encouragement of his Congregation and the rest of
us. Through dreams God allowed him to know the future of each of the boys of his
Oratory. Through dreams God let him know the boys' state of their souls. On
February 1, 1865 St. John Bosco announced that one of the boys will die soon. He
knew the boy through the dream the night before. On March 16, 1865, Anthony
Ferraris passed away after receiving the Last Sacraments. John Bisio, who helped
Anthony and his mother during the former's last hour, confirmed the story of his
part in this episode by a formal oath, concluding as follows: "Don Bosco told us
many other dreams concerning Oratory boys' deaths. We believed them to be true
prophecies. We still do, because unfailingly they came true. During the seven
years I lived at the Oratory, not a boy died without Don Bosco predicting his
death. We were also convinced that whoever died there under his care and
assistance surely went to heaven."

*The Road to Hell

(Prophetic Dream of St. John Bosco 1868 A.D.)
On Sunday night, May 3 [1868], the feast of Saint Joseph's patronage, Don Bosco
resumed the narration of his dreams:

I have another dream to tell you, a sort of aftermath of those I told you last
Thursday and Friday which totally exhausted me. Call them dreams or whatever you
like. Always, as you know, on the night of April 17 a frightful toad seemed bent
on devouring me. When it finally vanished, a voice said to me: "Why don't you
tell them?" I turned in that direction and saw a distinguished person standing
by my bed. Feeling guilty about my silence, I asked: "What should I tell my
boys?"

"What you have seen and heard in your last dreams and what you have wanted to
know and shall have revealed to you tomorrow night!" He then vanished.

I spent the whole next day worrying about the miserable night in store for me,
and when evening came, loath to go to bed, I sat at my desk browsing through
books until midnight. The mere thought of having more nightmares thoroughly
scare me. However, with great effort, I finally went to bed.

"Get up and follow me!" he said.

"For Heaven's sake," I protested, "leave me alone. I am exhausted! I've been
tormented by a toothache for several days now and need rest. Besides, nightmares
have completely worn me out." I said this because this man's apparition always
means trouble, fatigue, and terror for me.

"Get up," he repeated. "You have no time to lose."

I complied and followed him. "Where are you taking me?" I asked.

"Never mind. You'll see." He led me to a vast, boundless plain, veritably a
lifeless desert, with not a soul in sight or a tree or brook. Yellowed, dried-up
vegetation added to the desolation I had no idea where I was or what was I to
do. For a moment I even lost sight of my guide and feared that I was lost,
utterly alone. Father Rua, Father Francesia, nowhere to be seen. When I finally
saw my friend coming toward me, I sighed in relief.

"Where am I?" I asked.

"Come with me and you will find out!"

"All right. I'll go with you."

He led the way and I followed in silence, but after a long, dismal trudge, I
began worrying whether I would ever be able to cross that vast expanse, what
with my toothache and swollen legs. Suddenly I saw a road ahead.

"Where to now?" I asked my guide.

"This way," he replied.

We took the road. It was beautiful, wide, and neatly paved. "The way of sinners
is made plain with stones, and in their end is hell, and darkness, and pains. "
(Ecclesiasticus 21: 11, stones: broad and easy.) Both sides were lined with
magnificent verdant hedges dotted with gorgeous flowers. Roses, especially,
peeped everywhere through the leaves. At first glance, the road was level and
comfortable, and so I ventured upon it without the least suspicion, but soon I
noticed that it insensibly kept sloping downward. Though it did not look steep
at all, I found myself moving so swiftly that I felt I was effortlessly gliding
through the air. Really, I was gliding and hardly using my feet. Then the
thought struck me that the return trip would be very long and arduous.

"How shall we get back to the Oratory?" I asked worriedly.

"Do not worry," he answered. "The Almighty wants you to go. He who leads you on
will also know how to lead you back."

The road is sloping downward. As we were continuing on our way, flanked by banks
of roses and other flowers, I became aware that the Oratory boys and very many
others whom I did not know were following me. Somehow I found myself in their
midst. As I was looking at them, I noticed now one, now another fall to the
ground and instantly be dragged by an unseen force toward a frightful drop,
distantly visible, which sloped into a furnace. "What makes these boys fall?" I
asked my companion. "The proud have hidden a net for me. And they have stretched
out cords for a snare: they have laid for me a stumbling-block by the wayside."
(Psalms 139: 6)

"Take a closer look," he replied.

I did. Traps were everywhere, some close to the ground, others at eye level, but
all well concealed. Unaware of their danger, many boys got caught, and they
tripped, they would sprawl to the ground, legs in the air. Then, when they
managed to get back on their feet, they would run headlong down the road toward
the abyss. Some got trapped by the head, others by the neck, hand, arms, legs,
or sides, and were pulled down instantly. The ground traps, fine as spiders'
webs and hardly visible, seemed very flimsy and harmless; yet, to my surprise,
every boy they snared fell to the ground.

Noticing my astonishment, the guide remarked, "Do you know what this is?"

"Just some filmy fiber," I answered.

"A mere nothing," he said, "just plain human respect.",

Seeing that many boys were being caught in those straps. I asked, "Why do so
many get caught? Who pulls them down?"

"Go nearer and you will see!" he told me.

I followed his advice but saw nothing peculiar.

"Look closer," he insisted.

I picked up one of the traps and tugged. I immediately felt some resistance. I
pulled harder, only to feel that, instead of drawing the thread closer, I was
being pulled down myself. I did not resist and soon found myself at the mouth of
a frightful cave. I halted, unwilling to venture into that deep cavern, and
again started pulling the thread toward me. It gave a little, but only through
great effort on my part. I kept tugging, and after a long while a huge, hideous
monster emerged, clutching a rope to which all those traps were tied together.
He was the one who instantly dragged down anyone who got caught in them. It
won't do to match my strength with his, I said to myself. I'll certainly lose.
I'd better fight him with the Sign of the Cross and with short invocations.

Then I went back to my guide. "Now you know who he is," he said to me.

"I surely do! It is the devil himself!"

Carefully examining many of the traps, I saw that each bore an inscription:
Pride, Disobedience, Envy, Sixth Commandment, Theft, Gluttony, Sloth, Anger and
so on. Stepping back a bit to see which ones trapped the greater number of boys,
I discovered that the most dangerous were those of impurity, disobedience, and
pride. In fact, these three were linked to together. Many other traps also did
great harm, but not as much as the first two. Still watching, I noticed many
boys running faster than others. "Why such haste?" I asked.

"Because they are dragged by the snare of human respect."

Looking even more closely, I spotted knives among the traps. A providential hand
had put them there for cutting oneself free. The bigger ones, symbolizing
meditation, were for use against the trap of pride; others, not quite as big,
symbolized spiritual reading well made. There were also two swords representing
devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, especially through frequent Holy Communion,
and to the Blessed Virgin. There was also a hammer symbolizing confession, and
other knives signifying devotion to Saint Joseph, to Saint Aloysius, and to
other Saints. By these means quite a few boys were able to free themselves or
evade capture.

Indeed I saw some lads walking safely through all those traps, either by good
timing before the trap sprung on them or by making it slip off them if they got
caught.

When my guide was satisfied that I had observed everything, he made me continue
along that rose-hedged road, but the farther we went the scarcer the roses
became. Long thorns began to show up, and soon the roses were no more. The
hedges became sun-scorched, leafless, and thorn-studded. Withered branches torn
from the bushes lay criss-crossed along the roadbed, littering it with thorns
and making it impassable. We had come now to a gulch whose steep sides hid what
lay beyond. The road, still sloping downward, was becoming ever more horrid,
rutted, guttered, and bristling with rocks and boulders. I lost track of all my
boys, most of whom had left this treacherous road for other paths.

I kept going, but the farther I advanced, the more arduous and steep became the
descent, so that I tumbled and fell several times, lying prostrate until I could
catch my breath. Now and then my guide supported me or helped me to rise. At
every step my joints seemed to give way, and I thought my shinbones would snap.
Panting, I said to my guide, "My good fellow, my legs won't carry me another
step. I just can't go any farther." He did not answer but continued walking.
Taking heart, I followed until, seeing me soaked in perspiration and thoroughly
exhausted, he led me to a little clearing alongside the road. I sat down, took a
deep breath, and felt a little better. From my resting place, the road I had
already traveled looked very steep, jagged, and strewn with loose stones, but
what lay ahead seemed so much worse that I closed my eyes in horror.

"Let's go back," I pleaded. "If we go any farther, how shall we ever get back to
the Oratory? I will never make it up this slope."

"Now that we have come so far, do you want me to leave you here?" my guide
sternly asked.

At this threat, I wailed, "How can I survive without your help?"

"Then follow me."

Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 21 - THE PRESENTATION OF MARY
 
 
 
As a small child, Mary was presented to the Lord in the temple by her parents, Sts. Anne and Joachim. Pray "that from this Year of the Eucharist, they [priests] may draw the fruit of a renewed Love for the Sacrament they celebrate.
Through the intercession of the Virgin Mother of God, may they always live and bear witness to the mystery that is put in their hands for the saving of the world" (Pope Benedict XVI, Sept. 18, 2005).
 
"When I am before the Tabernacle, I can say only one thing to Our Lord: 'My God, you know that I love you.'  And I feel my prayer does not tire Jesus; knowing the helplessness of His poor little spouse, He is content with her good will" (St. Therese, The Little Flower).

Judgement Day

A preacher of the old school was describing the events of Judgment Day and, of course, he used Biblical phraseology whenever he could.

"Oh, my friends," he intoned, "imagine the suffering of the sinners as they find themselves cast into the outer darkness, removed from the presence of the Lord and given to eternal flames. My friends, at such a time there will be weeping, wailing and a great gnashing of teeth!"

At this point, one of the elders of the congregation interrupted to say, "But Reverend, what if one of those hopeless sinners has no teeth?"

The preacher crashed his fist on the pulpit, "My friends, the Lord is not put out by details. Rest assured: teeth will be provided!"

Pope John Paul II -

The Archbishop Kwangju said to the Pope: "In Korea, in the town of Nadju, Our Lady cries..." The Pope answered "There are bishops, like in Yugoslavia for example who are against this...., but it's important to look at the great number of people who are answering invitations, the amount of conversions. .. All this is underlined in the Gospel , all these facts have to be seriously investigated. " (L`Homme Nouveau, 3. February 1991.) http://www.medjugor je.org/pope. htm

Mother Teresa -  

We should realize that poverty doesn't only consist in being hungry for bread, but rather it is a tremendous hunger for human dignity.
We need to love and to be somebody for someone else.
 

Meditations by Padre Pio -

Take comfort then, my dear lady, take comfort, because the sustaining arm of the Lord has not been shortened. Oh yes, He is the Father of all, but He is more so for the unhappy and even more so for you who are a widow, and a widowed mother.

Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
We must learn from the Humblest of Servants

"Unconscious influence is never superior. As Our Divine Lord said: `I am among you as One Who serves' (Luke 22: 27). From that basic humility came the advice to His disciples, that one who would be greatest among them should be the least of all (Matthew 23: 11). At the same time, He was never so royal as when He committed
 
St. Faustina's diary  http://www.marian. org/directory_ flash.html  -

Today, Jesus is bidding me to comfort and reassure a certain soul who has opened herself to me and told me about her difficulties. This soul is pleasing to the Lord, but she is not aware of it. God is keeping her in deep humility. I have carried out the Lord's directives.       (1063)

That beautiful soul who is spreading this work of divine mercy throughout the world is, by his deep humility, very pleasing to God.       (1083)

Quote of the Day When an evil thought is presented to the mind, we must endeavor to turn our thoughts to God, or to something which is indifferent. Bur the best rule is, to invoke the names of Jesus and Mary, and to continue to invoke them until the temptation ceases. -St. Alphonsus Liguori

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.  
 
Nov 21 - THE PRESENTATION OF MARY

On this day when Mary was presented, or consecrated, to God at the Temple in Jerusalem, she calls each of us to a consecration as well:

Dear children, today I am happy because many of you want to consecrate yourselves to me. Thank you. You are not mistaken, my Son, Jesus Christ wishes, through my intercession, to bestow very special graces on you. He rejoices in your consecration to him (Weekly Message May 17, 1984).

When we are consecrated to God and Our Lady, we are given a mission as well.

From Isaiah:

The spirit of the Lord God is upon me, Because the Lord has anointed me:

He has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to the prisoners; to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn. Isaiah 61 :1-2

Reflection:

Our Lady once recommended to the visionaries that they read an account of her life entitled The Poem of the Man-God by the mystical writer Maria Valtorta (1897-1961). In chapter 8 of this work, Valtorta describes her vision of Mary's presentation at the age of three.

As background: Having been childless, Joachim and Ann had vowed that if they were blessed with a child, they would consecrate her to God at childhood, when she would then reside at the Temple with other consecrated souls, to pray and glorify the Lord in a cloistered setting, until she reached maturity.

In this scene from the book, the child Mary and her parents are at the entrance of the Temple, where the high priest has come to receive her:

The high priest looks at the little girl and smiles. Then, he beckons to Mary. And she departs from her mother and father, and as if fascinated, climbs the steps. And she smiles. She smiles in the shade of the Temple, where the precious veil is hanging. She is now at the top of the steps, at the feet of the high priest, who imposes his hand on her head. The victim has been accepted. Which purer victim had the Temple ever received?

Then he turns around and holding his hand on her shoulder as if he were leading the immaculate little lamb to the altar, he takes her to the Temple door.

Before letting her in, he asks her: "Mary of David, are you aware of your vow?"

When she replies "Yes" in her silvery voice, he cries out: "Go in, then. Walk in my presence and be perfect."

Application:

"Today I am very happy," Our Lady says, "because there are many who want to consecrate themselves to me. Thank you." Today, in the spirit of the Presentation, consecrate yourself again to the Blessed Mother, using either your own words or the prayer found for November 24.
 
 I asked a priest about apparitions.
"Do we have to listen to them." He said "no."
Then I asked, "are there consequences to not listening." He said "no."
Then I said "what about the secrets of Fatima."

Past Message to Louise April 17, 2004

Message to L., V+J
April 17, 2004---9:55 A.M.
Louise began to receive a message from Our God and said, "Jesus, please cover me with Your Most Precious Blood."

Then Our God spoke, "Dear children, I tell you to discern, to test every word, every spirit. Not every word you hear comes from Me. Also, there are three spirits: My Spirit, yours and the spirit of evil.

Allow only My word, My Spirit to guide you. Remember, the word of God is true. Satan lures you with sweet, deceptive lies. His talk, his words will always lead you astray.

When My Spirit speaks all will be confirmed through Scripture, your local or worldwide news or by another messenger of Mine. My Spirit speaks only truth and My Spirit brings peace.

By listening to My Spirit you will be prepared, at any moment, for anything including death. You will have strength beyond measure. My Spirit is hope for I am with you always. My Spirit was sent to you to remain with you always.

The evil spirit, on the other hand, brings confusion, doubt and fear. This spirit is the spirit of lies, of deception, of confusion. Avoid it at any cost.

So, dear children, you must discern. You must test every spirit, every word. Remember, you will know them by their fruits!"

To Those Who Do Not Know Jesus

Heaven Speaks to those who do not Know Jesus
By "Anne," a Lay Apostle

December 21, 2006

Jesus

I am Jesus. I am God. I am complete in Myself. I am present in your world and I am present in heaven. You see, I am omnipresent. Even if you wish to, you cannot remove yourself from My presence on earth. I created earth. You might say the earth belongs to Me. All in it, are also My creation. You, dear beloved one, were created by Me. Do I say that you belong to Me? I say it in another way. I say, I want you to belong to Me. I want to possess your heart.

Why do I use the word heart when truly it is your soul that I seek? I use the word heart because people characterize the heart as the place where people hold the love they possess. If you have love, people say you have it in your heart. The heart is known as the source of love and the receptacle of love, so I, Jesus, tell you that I want to possess your heart.

When it is all simplified, as it should be, I am saying that I want you to love Me. I love you. There is no problem there. I love you today and I will always love you. A difficulty We have is that you do not know Me. The only way for Me to teach you to love Me is for Me to reveal Myself to you, to allow you to know Me.

For that reason I come to you today. I reveal Myself to you through these words and through the graces attached to them. If you read these words and sit in silence, you will begin to know Me. If you begin to know Me, truly, you will begin to love Me. Forget anything that tempts you to move away from these words and graces. Rest. Be with Me. Allow Me to teach you about Myself.

Jesus

In your world today, there are many claims of goodness. Some of these claims are true. Some of these claims are false. I, Jesus, am not present in lies. I do not rest in falseness. Truth has a pure feel to it and truth does not change. If you want to find truth, look back over time and see what claims of truth have persevered. What are the things that were true two thousand years ago? You will find them if you look to see what has persevered through the ages.

Two thousand years ago, it was true that I came to bring salvation. Today, that is still true. I came then and I come today. I come for your salvation. I come so that you will be saved. I come so that where there is falseness, where you are being deceived, I will be present with My truth.

Two thousand years ago, there was evil in the world. Today, evil persists alongside good. Does this mean evil is good? Has truth changed? No. Just as truth never changes, so evil does not change. Evil simply changes its disguise. I, God, have not changed My character.

When you first know someone, you know a few things about them. As you get to know someone better, you learn more. Over time and with consistent interaction, you begin to know someone well and you can then say that you understand that person.

I want you to understand Me. I am truth. To know Me, Jesus, you will have to know what is true and what is false. I will teach you this but it is not something that I can teach you all at once. Truth, in its great depth, must be absorbed gradually. For this reason I invite you to keep company with Me.

If you do, I will teach you all you need to know to distinguish between the truth in your world and the deceit in your world. I will teach you to separate good from evil at a glance. I am the great Teacher, the Divine Teacher. With Me comes the light necessary for instant instruction on any given topic. You may say, "Give it to me all at once, God. If you are who you say, you can do that."

You are correct. I could do that, such is My power. But you, My friend, are not disposed to accept such an experience because My truth is all about love. Your little heart must be expanded first. We have to make room for all of this truth, which is filled with love. I want you to embark with Me on a journey. Walk with Me. Allow Me to draw you into your soul, into the mystical nature of yourself. Come to Me there so I can introduce you to the great truths about your family, the family of God.

You will find such acceptance there. When you rest in My gaze in your soul, you will understand about love. You will, at the same time, understand about heaven, your ultimate home. I am calling to you now and I know that you hear Me. Come to Me. Stay with Me. Give Me the briefest chance to reveal Myself to you.

Jesus

As I draw you into the mystical nature of yourself, I draw you into My heart. My heart and your heart belong together. When you are with Me, you feel calm and accepted. You feel oneness with others because you experience community in your soul. If I am with each man as I am with you, then you are connected to each man through Me. Do you begin to understand the family of God?

 I love every man created. I have a good plan for every man created. This is My truth and, as you recall, I can never be where there is deceit. If I have a good agenda for every man created, and I have a good agenda for you, you are safe with Me and all mankind is safe with Me.

If connected to Me, each person will serve his time on earth in mystical union with every other person and in mystical union with all of the saints in heaven. We are all connected. After this time of service, each man connected to Me comes home to Me and home to the family that loves him, awaits him, and welcomes him.

There is no bad will on heaven's side. There is only acceptance and truth. I have such hope for you, My friend. All of your gifts originate in God and are an outgrowth of God's goodness. If you learn to understand Me, you will learn that I want to use your gifts to create harmony in your soul. When you use your gifts and energy for My purposes, you will benefit the whole world. It must be so because I have said it is so and I can speak only the truth.

We are all connected. Would you like to benefit the world? Truly, you are capable of this and this is My plan for you. I have so much to give to you in terms of knowledge and wisdom. Teamed with Me, you will flourish and grow to heights you never dreamed possible. Rejoice. You are resting with God, the God of all. This God tells you today that you are loved and needed.

Jesus

Follow this path that springs up before you. Come to Me. Turn in My direction and I will reveal this path that I want you to take. You will feel lightness in your spirit, a relief. You will feel calm. Inside there will quietly burst forth a bud of hope. This bud will blossom, have no fear.

The hope you feel in your soul is nourished by the time you spend with Me, seeking truth. I will see to it all. I need the smallest, even the most tremulous willingness. You are hesitant to believe in Me. I know that. I understand everything that has gone before this moment in your life. Remember that I have all universal truth available to Me. In that respect, am I not a valuable person for you to know?

Could you admit that I am possibly the most valuable person you could ever know? If you knew of someone on earth who had all truth about everything, who understood the purest facts and possessed the cleanest, most pristine vision of reality imaginable, would you not seek out this person's company? If you were wise, you would do so.

 If you were a man who desired truth, you would do so. If you were weary of lies and falseness, you would do so. My friend, if you seek truth, you must come with Me. If you seek acceptance, you must come to Me. If you want to be loved, you must rest in My heart because it is the only place where you will find the perfect security you crave. I am with you. I will never leave you.

You could not escape My presence, even if you wanted to. You may as well get to know Me better so that you can decide whether you will reject Me or accept Me. This is the ultimate choice that will be yours. Just as you cannot escape My presence, you cannot escape this choice. It is yours. I want you to consider your options.

Jesus

My friend, this is between you and Me. By "this" I refer to both this conversation and your ultimate decision of whether to accept Me or reject Me. When you are asked to make an important decision on earth, you consider your options. You take time and weigh both sides.

Perhaps you waver between one course and another. I want you to consider both sides of this decision. If you accept Me, you will have entry into the most loving and secure family of all. If you accept Me, you will have security for the rest of your life in that I will lay out the course in front of you, guiding you, protecting you, and never leaving you.

If you accept Me, you will come to heaven in triumph, bringing with you the great benefits that your cooperation secured for your family. You will walk in truth and in calm. Your life on earth will not suddenly become easy, but it will be filled with God's peace and God's grace.

If you reject Me, you will continue on, vulnerable to the deceit of My enemy. You will delude yourself at times, thinking that you are wise. Perhaps you will feel superior to many of your brothers and sisters, but I tell you today, in all of My truth, that the most humble one in heaven holds all of God's mysteries in his soul. You will not be privy to these mystical realities if you reject Me. How could you be if you did not want to be?

I conclude with one of the greatest truth of all and that is that I do not force My children to choose Me. I do not force humanity to work for heaven. If I did, we would not have a family, but a master and his slaves. No. This is not for Me and this is not for you. The heavenly Kingdom would not be the heavenly Kingdom if it were not filled with willing and beloved children.

Everyone in heaven works for each other in great joy. Everyone in heaven works for our family members on earth in great hope. As you read these words, there is great hope in heaven that you will choose Me, Jesus Christ, and embark upon the journey to truth. It is here for you. I have truth and I have a course laid out for you that will bring you to this destination.

I love you. I will take care of you. Choose Me and I will begin to reveal Myself to you. You will know peace, My friend. You will know security. You will know joy for all eternity. This is your inheritance and I am your God.

Allow nothing to divert you from the truth that I am Jesus Christ and I love you. I come today to announce Myself to you and to save you. Come. Trust Me. Be with Me. I will protect you.

Message From Jesus- November 17, 2007 Thru Lec

November 17, 2007

6:50 AM Message received From Jesus

After the 6:00 am mass and having said all my preparatory prayers, I asked the Lord Jesus if He has anything to say. He said "Yes" son. The following is what I heard:

Son of my Father's will, remember the times when you were sharing many of your life's testimonies. You desire to please us, and yes my son, you can make us happier if you resume sharing your encounters with us. Look to what you have not shared before and write them so that the hearers will know and feel that my Father and I still actively work for the benefit of our children.

Help enliven the faith by your witnessing. If you do, you will not experience a dearth of what to say for if we are at work in a person, the supernatural becomes a way of life for that person, as if it is the usual and ordinary way.

More people are enticed to embrace the spiritual life not by long preaching but when they see and hear what God has done in a person's life, others are inclined to desire possessing the attributes that gave the sharer the benefit of the supernatural encounter.

Is it not said that Faith without works is dead but that Faith can be effectively sustained by a continuous hearing hearing our words as well as the sharing of what God has done in a person's life.

MY DEAR DEAR PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILDREN,

HOW GREAT IS THE LORD. HOW GREAT IS HE WHO KNOWS ALL SOULS AND LOVES EACH ONE. HOW BLESSED YOU ARE TO KNOW HIM AND TRUST IN HIS GREAT LOVE AND MERCY.

THE WORLD TODAY CAUSES MANY, ESPECIALLY THE YOUTH, TO DOUBT THE EXISTENCE OF GOD, AND YET HE LOVES THEM. HIS LOVE IS POWERFUL AND EVIL CANNOT COMPETE WITH IT. YET IN THESE TIMES, THIS GREAT LOVE DOES NOT ALWAYS APPEAR TO BE EVIDENT. I TELL YOU MY LOVES THAT GOD IS ALMIGHTY, ALL POWERFUL, AND NOTHING CAN STAND, THAT STANDS AGAINST HIM. THIS IS THE TIME OF CHAOS AND CONFUSION, BUT IT IS ALSO GOD'S TIME AND ALL WILL COME TO KNOW HIM, BUT THEY WILL DECIDE IF THEY ARE TO LOVE HIM.

MANY TIMES I ASSURE YOU THAT I HAVE BEEN SENT TO YOU BECAUSE GOD THE FATHER REQUESTED IT. IT WAS BY HIS DESIGN THAT YOU WERE FORMED INTO THIS UNITY. BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO YOU IN THIS SPECIAL WAY, I CARE FOR YOU AND ALL THOSE YOU LOVE ACCORDINGLY. I AM MOTHER TO ALL, BUT I AM BONDED TO YOU AT THE REQUEST OF GOD THE FATHER. I DO NOT LEAVE YOU, BUT REMAIN STEADFAST THAT YOU DO NOT LOSE YOUR WAY. YOU HAVE BEEN ASKED TO PERSEVERE AND ENDURE ALL TRIALS AND HARDSHIPS WITH TRUST AND WITH DIGNITY. THIS YOU DO MY LOVES, ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD. CONTINUE TO ENDURE AND TO PERSEVERE, BECAUSE WHAT AWAITS YOU CANNOT BE COMPREHENDED BY THE HUMAN HEART.

I GIVE TODAY MY BLESSING - TAKING CARE TO TOUCH EACH HEART ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO ARE SADDENED BY LIVES EVENTS AND WHO GRIEVE. I GIVE A BLESSING OF AN OUTPOURING OF GRACE IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY GHOST.

LET MY PRIEST EXTEND TO YOU THE BLESSING OF CHRIST. MAY ALL GIVE PRAISE AND THANKS TO GOD - NOW AND FOREVER.

Message via L., V+J
November 18, 2007- - -10:20 A.M.

L. began to receive a message and said, "Jesus, please cover me with Your Most Precious Blood." (and other prayers of testing)

Your Father, your God then again spoke:

"I warn you My children, do NOT venture out on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving !!! STAY AWAY FROM ALL CROWDS!!! Many diseases and toxins WILL BE SPREAD in enclosed places such as malls, stores and restaurants! !! Also, DO NOT SHAKE HANDS!!! So many germs will be spread! So many diseases too!

From now through Christmas is a great time for terrorists to attack for they are well-informed as to where the greatest number of people gather.

LISTEN TO ME - - - STAY HOME, PRAY AND PREPARE FOR ALL THAT WILL BE!!!

Amen, I have spoken and ALL WILL BE!!!"


Note: (mk) In some states and areas the day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday because businesses may have been in debt and operating in the red up to that great day of shopping and those sales bring them back to the black meaning debt free.

Message From Mother Mary - November 16, 2007 thru Lec -

Message Received From Mother Mary
November 16, 2007(Friday)
7:15AM

In the interim, I paused for a moment to recharge my spiritual battery by praying the Lord's Prayer, Hail Mary, Glory Be, the Apostle's Creed, Prayer for Protection to St. Michael and the exorcism prayer.

I have already asked for the covering of the most Precious Blood of Jesus after the mass, before getting the very first message.

Then I asked Mother Mary if she has anything to say.
She said "Yes" son. What follows is what I heard from the still, small, inner voice:

My son, your honoring me your Mother counts much in my inclination to seek fellowship with you on a regular basis. I desire to speak to the faithful so as not to let go of their zeal in praying first of all the prayer which my Son taught them. Praying the Rosary will help much to ward off temptations of the evil one as well as repel attacks seen and unseen from the invisible enemy. The angels of the Lord stand before you to protect you wherever your feet takes you to but seek their help for they also respect your free will choice as we do too. Their help is perceptible and always ready but ask them to help.

Prayers of the faithful are gathered by angels and presented to me which I then lay at the feet of my Son for His hearing. To those who have recourse to me, be assured therefore that your prayers that sought my intercession will never be in vain for I myself am the one directly talking to my Son to please grant your prayers even if hurriedly said. I do not encroach though on my Son's wisdom but a constant appeal to His merciful heart many times do obtain answers to petitions sent by the faithful.

I do help my Son win more souls for heaven.

Novena November 19-27 Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal
 
 
MISSION MOMENTS

Miracle of the Rosary Mission, Inc.
MissionMoments@ MiracleRosaryMis sion.org
Http://www.MiracleR osaryMission. org

Please join us in a novena to Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, better known on November 27 as our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. As patroness of the United States, let us pray for the Church in the USA, the USA itself, and our own personal intentions. Our Lady is truly a Mother of Miracles, the Miracle of the Rosary being only one of countless.

We will begin the novena Monday, November 19 and conclude Tuesday, November 27.

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

 
               Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful, and kindle in them the fire of Your love. Send forth Your Spirit, and they shall be created. And You shall renew the face of the earth.

Let us pray.

               O God, who did instruct the hearts of the faithful by the light of the Holy Spirit, grant us in the same Spirit to be truly wise and ever to rejoice in His consolation, through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen.

 
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you. (3 times.)

 
               O Lord Jesus Christ, who have vouchsafed to glorify by numberless miracles the Blessed Virgin Mary, immaculate from the first moment of her conception, grant that all who devoutly implore her protection on earth, may eternally enjoy Your presence in heaven, who, with the Father and Holy Spirit, live and reign, God, for ever and ever. Amen.

 
               O Lord Jesus Christ, who for the accomplishment of Your greatest works, have chosen the weak things of the world, that no flesh may glory in Your sight; and who for a better and more widely diffused belief in the Immaculate Conception of Your Mother, have wished that the Miraculous Medal be manifested to Saint Catherine Laboure, grant, we beseech You, that filled with like humility, we may glorify this mystery by word and work. Amen.

 
Novena Prayer

 
               O Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of Our Lord Jesus and our Mother, penetrated with the most lively confidence in your all-powerful and never failing intercession, manifested so often through the Miraculous Medal, we your loving and trustful children implore you to obtain for us the graces and favors we ask during this Novena, if they be beneficial to our immortal souls, and the souls for whom we pray. You know, O Mary, how often our souls have been the sanctuaries of your Son who hates iniquity. Obtain for us also a spirit of prayer and self-denial that we may recover by penance what we have lost by sin and at length attain to that blessed abode where you are the Queen of angels and of men. Amen.

 
Act of Consecration to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal

 
               O Virgin Mother of God, Mary Immaculate, we dedicate and consecrate ourselves to you under the title of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. May this Medal be for each one of us a sure sign of your affection for us and a constant reminder of our duties toward you. Ever while wearing it, may be blessed by your loving protection and preserved in the grace of your Son. O most powerful Virgin, Mother of our Savior, keep us close to you every moment of our lives. Obtain for us, your children, the grace of a happy death; so that, in union with you, we may enjoy the bliss of heaven forever. Amen.

 
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you. (3 times.)
 

God bless you, one and all.
