Saints are not people who plan and organize their particular style of life and perfection and follow it strictly on their own strength. Saints are people who love and trust God to the point that they let Him guide them and lead them where He wants.

Catholic Insight Magazine May 2004 page 21 (quote from Vatican website)

Become a saint by doing God's Will!

May the Mother of Jesus, and our Mother, always smile on your spirit, obtaining for it, from her Most Holy Son, every heavenly blessing.

"When a person builds his philosophy of life on the principle of self-will, he is in for a tremendous shock. It happens that most other people he meets in the world have exactly the same principle. The result is that one individual has self-will contradicted by another; the ego is negated by another ego; wishes are not fulfilled; whims are negated, crossed and rejected by other egos equally bent on self assertion."

My Jesus, despite Your graces, I see and feel all my misery. I begin my day with battle and end it with battle. As soon as I conquer one obstacle, ten more appear to take its place. But I am not worried, because I know that this is the time of struggle, not peace. When the burden of the battle becomes too much for me, I throw myself like a child into the arms of the heavenly Father and trust I will not perish. O my Jesus, how prone I am to evil, and this forces me to be constantly vigilant. But I do not lose heart. I trust God's grace, which abounds in the worst misery. (606)

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.

Today the Blessed Virgin calls us to light:

Dear children, you have all experienced light and darkness during your lives. God gives every person the power to recognize good and evil. I am calling you to light, which you must carry to all who are in darkness. From day to day, people who are in darkness come into your homes. You, dear children, must give them the light (Weekly Message March 14, 1985).

As we see in John's gospel, Jesus himself is the light

Jesus said to them, "The light is with you a little longer. Walk while you have the light, so that the darkness May not overtake you. If you walk in the darkness, you do not know where you are going. While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you May become children of light." (Jn 12:35-36).

There is a famous cave, some 60 miles from Auckland in New Zealand. It is known as the cave of the glowworms. You reach it in a boat which is pulled by a wire for silence. As you glide down the stream, you suddenly come across a soft light gleaming in the distance; then you enter a magic world. From the top of the cave, thousands of threads hang down from the glowing insects. So great is the light that it is possible to read a book there. But if there is a slightest noise, the bright light dies out, just as if a switch had been turned off.

The light to one committed Christian can illuminate not only his family, but also the parish and community in which he lives. Most of us have known someone like this; their kindness, unselfishness, and love have had special effect on our lives. If you multiply such an individual several million times, you have a power which can enlighten an entire world. This is the reason why Our Lady came to Medjugorje, and why we have been asked to live her messages.

Carry the light of faith and peace to all you meet today. May your example draw them closer to Christ.

Plenary indulgence announced for anniversary of the Apostle to the G

Plenary indulgence announced for anniversary of the Apostle to the Gentiles

Vatican City, May 12, 2008 / 11:11 am (CNA)

.- On Saturday a decree from the Vatican stated that Benedict XVI will grant the faithful plenary indulgence for the occasion of the two-thousandth anniversary of the birth of St. Paul. The gift of indulgences, states the document, assist in the attainment of purification and honor the great saint.
The Plenary Indulgence will be valid throughout the Pauline Year which will run from June 28, 2008 to June 29, 2009.

Plenary indulgences, if all the conditions are fulfilled, remove all temporal punishments that afflict people as a result of their sins. The scriptural roots of indulgences are found in Matthew 16.
The decree states that the Holy Father is granting the indulgences to provide the faithful with â spiritual treasures for their own sanctification in honor of St. Paul.

"In fact, the gift of indulgences which the Roman Pontiff offers the Universal Church, facilitates the way to interior purification which, while rendering honor to the Blessed Apostle Paul, exalts supernatural life in the hearts of the faithful and spurs them on ... to produce fruits of good works."

The means to obtain the plenary indulgence are as follows:
The indulgences are available to "All Christian faithful - truly repentant, duly purified by the Sacrament of Penance and restored with Holy Communion. The faithful must undertake a pious visit in the form of a pilgrimage to the papal basilica of St. Paul on Rome's Via Ostiense and pray in accordance with the intentions of the Supreme Pontiff to be granted and imparted Plenary Indulgence for the temporal punishment of their sins.
Each person may obtain an indulgence for themselves or for anyone who is deceased as many times as the aforementioned acts are undertaken; it remains the case, however, that Plenary Indulgence may be obtained only once a day.

"In order that the prayers pronounced on these holy visits may lead and draw the souls of the faithful to a more intense veneration of the memory of St. Paul, the following conditions are laid down: the faithful, apart from pronouncing their own prayers before the altar of the Blessed Sacrament, ... must go to the altar of the Confession and pray the 'Our Father' and the 'Creed', adding pious invocations in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Paul; and such acts of devotion must remain closely linked to the memory of the Prince of the Apostles St. Peter."

The document mentions those who may have difficulty traveling to the basilica can receive the indulgence by participating in a celebration for St. Paul. "Christian faithful from the various local Churches, under the usual conditions (sacramental Confession, Eucharistic communion, prayer in keeping with the intentions of the Supreme Pontiff) and completely unattached to any form of sin, may still obtain the Plenary Indulgence if they participate devotedly in a religious function or in a pious exercise held publicly in honor of the Apostle of the Gentiles: on the days of the solemn opening and closing of the Pauline Year in any place of worship; on other days determined by the local ordinary, in holy places named for St. Paul and, for the good of the faithful, in other places designated by the ordinary."
The decree concludes by addressing Catholics who are suffering from sickness or are unable to fulfill the necessary requirements for a legitimate reason. These people may still receive a plenary indulgence even if they are unable to leave their homes. In these situations, the faithful must fulfill three conditions: While striving to refrain from sin, the person must spiritually unite themselves to a Jubilee celebration in honor of St. Paul, offering their prayers and suffering to God for the unity of Christians.

Medjugorje Day By Day May 14 - GOD RULES OVER ALL RELIGIONS

"Especially from the Eucharist, as from a font, grace is poured forth upon us; and the sanctification of men in Christ and the glorification of God, to which all other activities of the Church are directed as toward their end, is achieved in the most efficacious possible way" (Sacrosanctum Concilium).

My son, you do not know the effects of obedience. Well, for a yes, for a single yes, be it done onto me according to Your word, to do God's will, Mary became the mother of mother of the Most High, professing herself to be His handmaid and keeping her virginity which was so dear to God and herself. Thanks to this "yes" pronounced by Mary Most Holy, the world obtained salvation and humanity was redeemed. Let us always do God's will and always say yes to the Lord

"The stubborn worship of a theory has had most appalling consequences in our day. To the theorist, it does not seem to matter that whole nations are deprived of liberty, that millions starve, that thousands are purged - so long as the theory is maintained in power. Instead of making the hat of governmental policy fit the head of man, the modern tendency is to cut off the head if it does not fit the hat - to demand that institutions, political schemes and social theories must prevail, no matter if their cost proves to be the destruction of man himself."

My Jesus, despite Your graces, I see and feel all my misery. I begin my day with battle and end it with battle. As soon as I conquer one obstacle, ten more appear to take its place. But I am not worried, because I know that this is the time of struggle, not peace. When the burden of the battle becomes too much for me, I throw myself like a child into the arms of the heavenly Father and trust I will not perish. O my Jesus, how prone I am to evil, and this forces me to be constantly vigilant. But I do not lose heart. I trust God's grace, which abounds in the worst misery. (606)

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.

The Mother of God speaks of ecumenism, or brotherhood, today. In answer to the question, "Are all religions good?" she responded:

All religions are similar before God. God rules over them just like a sovereign over his kingdom. In the world, all religions are not the same because people have not complied with the commandments of God. They reject and disparage them (First Years October 1, 1981).

In this same spirit, St. Paul calls us to be ambassadors of reconciliation among God's people:

All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and had given us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ, God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us. So we are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making his appeal through us. (2 Cor 5:18-20).

Both Our Lady and St. Paul call us to reconciliation with each other, both as individuals and as groups. Today the Gospa tells us that, "All religions are similar before God, "although not the same. Her desire is that our common brotherhood unite all faiths, each respecting the other.

This is the spirit that underlies the story of the Grand Rabbi of Lyons, who was a Jewish chaplain to the French during World War I. One day, a wounded man staggered into a trench and told the Rabbi that a Roman Catholic was on the point of death in no man's land, and was begging that his priest should come to him with a crucifix.

The priest could not quickly be found. The Jew rapidly improvised a cross, ran out with it into no man's land, and was seen to hold it before the dying man's eyes.

Almost immediately, he was shot by a sniper. The bodies of the Catholic and the Jew were found together.

Today, pray especially for the unity of all God's children. If you ever have the opportunity to go to an ecumenical service(often held on special holidays), make a special effort to attend in response to Our Lady's message today.

Looks Like the Tribulation has Indeed Started - Lec


THE death toll in cyclone-ravaged Burma could hit 500,000


THE death toll in cyclone-ravaged Burma could hit 500,000 more than TWICE the
total killed by the Boxing Day Tsunami.

Last night's warning came as it emerged that 17 Britons, including ex-pats and
backpackers, were still missing.

Sources said 200,000 people were already dead or dying.
But the figure could rise to HALF A MILLION through disease and hunger if the
nation's hardline army rulers continue to block aid for the devastated lowlands
of the Irrawaddy Delta.

That would dwarf the 230,000 deaths across South East Asia in the
2004 catastrophe.

Nyo Ohn Myint, of exiled opposition party The National League for Democracy,
told The Sun at a border crisis centre: "Much of this will be a man-made
disaster, caused by the military regime.

"The bodies need to be collected and burnt as soon as possible or disease will
claim many more lives. But the government has organised nothing and its 400,000
soldiers are doing nothing while undistributed aid piles up.

The bodies need to be collected and burnt as soon as possible or disease will
claim many more lives. But the government has organised nothing and its 400,000
soldiers are doing nothing while undistributed aid piles up.

They are hoping bodies will be washed out to sea so the final count is smaller
but it could kill half a million people within a matter of weeks. The world
must know what is going on."

Disaster struck on Saturday when 120mph Cyclone Nargis forced ashore waves up to
20ft high. The Irrawaddy town of Labutta population
80,000 was wiped off the map.

Local doctor Aye Kyu told how families clung to trees as their homes were swept
away.

He said: "I asked survivors how many there were left. They said about 200."

A spokesman for the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Aid said:
"The entire lower delta region is under water.
Teams are talking about bodies floating around. This is a major, major
disaster."

The UN World Food Programme said up to a million may have been left homeless in
the vital "rice bowl" farming region alone.
In the city of Bogalay, 95 per cent of homes are thought to have been destroyed.

In the township of Dedaye, south of the main city Rangoon, desperate kids
scavenged among the debris of their homes for anything useful to survival.

On the outskirts of Rangoon forlorn families, including a mother cradling her
screaming baby, queued for emergency handouts of rice.

In Britain, International Development Secretary Douglas Alexander told MPs the
situation was "grave".
The UK has so far pledged more aid than anyone, announcing a �5million package
to be channelled through the UN.

Charities Save the Children, Oxfam and the British Red Cross have also swung
into action.

But most of the aid is yet to be distributed because of the secretive Burmese
junta, led by ruthless General Than Shwe.

His isolationist regime is paranoid an influx of foreigners might have a
political impact on a national referendum due tomorrow, set to strengthen the
army's grip still further.

Just four of the air force's 80 helicopters have been used to move food, water
and medical shipments.

Meanwhile, many desperately needed supplies remain in neighbouring countries
awaiting clearance, along with aid workers denied visas.

Aid packages which have made it to Rangoon Airport were still on the tarmac.

There were fears that some could be stolen and sold on by corrupt officials.

Mark Farmaner, director of Burma Campaign UK, insisted: "We can't wait for them
any more.

"The Security Council must pass a resolution for aid delivery now.

"We need to see the British, French and US navies begin delivering assistance.
Every extra day lost is causing the deaths of yet more innocent victims."
The Burmese embassy in London claimed aid workers were not being allowed in
because of fears for their safety.

An official said: "The Irrawaddy Delta region is hard to travel at the best of
times. Once it is safe, we want more in the country as soon as possible."

Medjugorje Day By Day May 07 - Live my messages
"What is most beautiful and most noble on earth . . . is worth nothing, is nothing and less than nothing, compared with this God of mine!-of yours!
Infinite treasure, most beautiful pearl . . . humbled, become a slave, reduced to nothingness in a form of a servant in the stable where he willed to be born . . . in Joseph's workshop, in his passion and in his ignominious death, and in the frenzy of Love-the blessed Eucharist!" (St. Josemaria Escriva).

"Contemplate Jesus lying in His Crib, wrapped in the might of divine peace and redemptive suffering. Mary, kneeling, enraptured, in ecstasy, watches over the Child, over the Eternal One. She meditates on another Bethlehem, on quite another Crib, a crib of apparent repose, but of real and perpetual immolation, the Altar" (Fr. Mateo Crawley-Boevey).
Mother Teresa
Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.

Meditations by Padre Pio -
Oh Mary, sweet Mother of priests, mediatrix and administratrix of all graces, from the bottom of my heart I beg and implore you to thank Jesus, the fruit of thy womb, today, tomorrow and forever.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
We can accept or reject our crosses, but we can't avoid them
"There are only two things we can do with crosses - carry them or kick against them. We can merge them in God's plan for life and thus make them serve our inner peace and happiness, or we can stumble over them to the glen of weeping. Selfishness is the cause of much mental sickness; otherness, sympathy, forgiveness and self-discipline are the cure."

St. Faustina's diary <http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html> -
In order to purify a soul, Jesus uses whatever instruments He likes. My soul underwent a complete abandonment on the part of creatures; often my best intentions were misinterpreted by the sisters, a type of suffering which is most painful; but God allows it, and we must accept it because in this way we become more like Jesus. There was one thing which I could not understand for a long time: Jesus ordered me to tell everything to my Superiors, but my Superiors did not believe what I said and treated me with pity as though I were being deluded or were imagining things.
Because of this, believing myself to be deluded, I resolved to avoid God interiorly for fear of these illusions. But the grace of God pursued me at every step, and God spoke to me when I least expected it. (38)
At the beginning of my religious life, suffering and adversities frightened and disheartened me. So I prayed continuously, asking Jesus to strengthen me and to grant me the power of His Holy Spirit that I might carry out His holy will in all things, because from the beginning I have been aware of my weakness. I know very well what I am of myself, because for this purpose Jesus has opened the eyes of my soul; I am an abyss of misery, and hence I understand that whatever good there is in my soul consists solely of His holy grace. The knowledge of my own misery allows me, at the same time, to know the immensity of Your mercy. In my own interior life, I am looking with one eye at the abyss of my misery and baseness, and with the other, at the abyss of Your mercy, O God. (56)

May 7 - LIVE MY MESSAGES
Our Lady speaks of priorities today:
"Dear children, today I am calling you to accept and live my messages. Dear children, I love you and have especially chosen this parish, more dear to me than others, where I have gladly remained after the Almighty sent me.
Therefore, I call on you to accept me, dear children, so that everything will go well in your lives. Listen to my messages (Weekly Messages March 21,1985).
In Matthew's gospel, Christ also speaks of priorities:
Therefore do not worry, saying, "What shall we eat? " or "What will we drink?" or "What will we wear?" For it is the Gentiles who strive for all these things; and indeed your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. So strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. (Mt 6:31-33).
Reflection:
Mom was left behind when a nervous husband rushed to the hospital recently in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The father had called police to ask for help in getting his expectant wife to the hospital in a hurry. A patrol car was dispatched to meet the emergency. But after speeding through the city, with police clearing the way, the overanxious husband suddenly discovered that he had left his wife at home. Together with the officer he wheeled around and hastened back to the starting point, picked up his wife and resumed the flight to the hospital.
In the rush of daily living it is easy to get excited about incidentals and to overlook essentials. This is why the Madonna urges that we first live her messages before all else-that we put first things first. It is the same message of Christ in the gospels: "Seek first his kingdom and his justice, and all these things will be given to you besides."
Application:
Today, take a few minutes to reflect on the priorities in your life. Your use of time for various activities is a good measure.

Medjugorje Day By Day May 06 - Now they are receiving the sacrament
Monthly message to seer Mirjana Soldo in Medjugorje, disseminated by guide Miki Musa:
Dear children, I am coming to you as a mother. I am coming with an open heart full of love for you, my children. Cleanse your hearts from everything that prevents you from receiving me; from recognizing the love of my Son. Through you, my heart desires to win -- desires to triumph. Open your hearts; I will lead you to this. Thank you!

"Communion and contemplation belong together: a person cannot communicate with another person without knowing him. Love or friendship always carries within it an impulse of reverence, of adoration. Communicating with Christ therefore demands that we gaze on him, allow him to gaze on us, listen to him, get to know him. Adoration is simply the personal aspect of Communion" (Pope Benedict XVI).

"Do you not think this Heavenly Food fails to provide sustenance, even for these bodies, that it is not a great medicine even for bodily ills? I know that it is. I know a person with serious illnesses, who often experiences great pain, who through this Bread had them taken away as though by a gesture of the hand and was made completely well. This is a common experience"
St. Teresa of Avila
Mother Teresa
Peace begins with a smile.

Meditations by Padre Pio -
If Jesus manifests Himself, thank Him; and if He hides Himself thank Him also; it is a game of love. May the clement and pious Virgin continue to obtain for you from the ineffable goodness of the Lord the strength to sustain till the end the many proofs of charity He gives you. I hope you will die with Jesus on the Cross; and say in Him "Consummatum est."

Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Crosses are easier to bear when we have prepared properly
"Crosses are inescapable. Those who start with self-love have already created for themselves the possibility of millions of other crosses from those who live by the same pride. But those who discipline themselves and tame the ego by little acts of self-denial have already prepared themselves to meet crosses from the outside; they have familiarized themselves with them, and the shock is less when they are thrust on their shoulders."

St. Faustina's diary <http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html> -
During the night, the Mother of God visited me, holding the Infant Jesus in Her arms. My soul was filled with joy, and I said, "Mary, my Mother, do You know how terribly I suffer?" And the Mother of God answered me, I know how much you suffer, but do not be afraid. I share with you your suffering, and I shall always do so. She smiled warmly and disappeared. At once, strength and a great courage sprang up anew in my soul; but that lasted only one day. It seemed as though hell had conspired against me. A terrible hatred began to break out in my soul, a hatred for all that is holy and divine. It seemed to me that these spiritual torments would be my lot for the rest of my life. I turned to the Blessed Sacrament and said to Jesus, "Jesus, my Spouse, do You not see that my soul is dying because of its longing for You? How can You hide Yourself from a heart that loves You so sincerely? Forgive me, Jesus; may Your holy will be done in me. I will suffer silently like a dove, without complaining. I will not allow my heart even one single cry of sorrowful complaint." (25)

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

May 6 - NOW THEY ARE RECEIVING THE SACRAMENT
In the fourth week of the apparitions, Our Lady said
"Praised be Jesus Christ. A good number of people have been converted, and among them some who had not gone to confession in 45 years-yet now they are receiving the sacrament. Go in the peace of God (First Years July 22,1981).
Speaking also of confession and forgiveness, St. James wrote:
The prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise them up; and anyone who has committed sins will be forgiven. Therefore, confess your sins to one another (Jas 5:15-16).
Reflection:
One of the beautiful effects of confession is that, as we joyfully accept the Lord's forgiveness, we are then moved to forgive others in turn. The following story illustrates this.
A Catholic doctor in Scotland was very lenient with his poor patients, and when he found that it was difficult for them to pay his fees, he wrote in red ink across the record of their indebtedness the one word-"Forgiven." This was such a frequent occurrence that his case book had few pages where the red letters did not appear.
After his death, his executors thought the doctor's estate would be greatly benefited if some of the "forgiven" debts could be collected. After unsuccessful attempts at collection from the poor patients, the executors went to court to recover the amounts. But when the judge examined the case book and say the word"forgiven" canceling the entry, he said, "There is no court in the land that could enforce payment of these accounts marked `forgiven,'" and he dismissed the case.
Application:
Today, call to mind those people toward whom you feel anger or resentment. In thanksgiving to the Lord who has forgiven your sins, lift up these people to God in prayer, forgiving them in his name.


Medjugorje Day By Day May 05 -The great love God has for you

The Holy Eucharist must be "at the center of every pastoral plan . . . it builds the Church as authentic community of the People of God and always regenerates it on the basis of the sacrifice of Christ himself." "Above all, I invite you, dear families, to make reference to the Eucharist, as you are called to support your children in the path of preparation to the sacraments of Christian initiation and to follow them in adolescence and beyond, so that, growing, they will faithfully carry out the mission that God has reserved for them" (Pope John Paul II, March 8, 2004).

Mother Teresa
Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.

Meditations by Padre Pio -
May Mary be the reason of your existence and guide you to the safe harbor of eternal salvation. May she be your gentle model and your source of inspiration in the virtue of humility.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
The self-destruction of self-will
"The will that always insists on having its own way, begins to hate its own way. Those who live only for self begins to hate self. self is too narrow, confining and dark a sanctuary for happy adoration."
You can't have it both ways. Either you're pro-life or not. Pro-choice is not an alternative!

St. Faustina's diary <http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html> -
One day, just as I had awakened, when I was putting myself in the presence of God, I was suddenly overwhelmed by despair. Complete darkness in the soul. I fought as best I could till noon. In the afternoon, truly deadly fears began to seize me; my physical strength began to leave me. I went quickly to my cell, fell on my knees before the Crucifix and began to cry out for mercy. But Jesus did not hear my cries. I felt my physical strength leave me completely. I fell to the ground, despair flooding my whole soul. I suffered terrible tortures in no way different from the torments of hell. I was in this state for three quarters of an hour. I wanted to go and see the Directress, but was too weak, I wanted to shout but I had no voice. Fortunately, one of the sisters [another novice, Sister Placida Putyra] came into my cell. Finding me in such a strange condition, she immediately told the Directress about it. Mother came at once. As soon as she entered the cell she said, "In the name of holy obedience get up from the ground." Immediately some force raised me up from the ground and I stood up, close to the dear Mother Directress. With kindly words she began to explain to me that this was a trial sent to me by God, saying, "Have great confidence; God is always our Father, even when He sends us trials. " (24a)

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.
MAY 5 - THE GREAT LOVE GOD HAS FOR YOU
The Madonna speaks of love today:
Dear children, today I call you to a complete surrender to God. You are not conscious, dear children, of the great love God has for you. This is why he has allowed me to be with you, to teach and help you to find the way to peace. But you cannot find it if you do not pray.
Therefore, dear children, forsake everything and consecrate your time to God, for then he will bestow gifts upon you and bless you.
Little children, do not forget that your life is fleeting like a spring flower, which today is wondrously beautiful, but tomorrow has vanished. Therefore, pray in such away that your prayer, as well as your surrender to God, maybe be come like a road sign. In this way your witness will not only have value for yourself, but also for others and for all eternity [MM 3-25-88].
In his great love for us, God will deny us nothing which is good:
Ask, and it will be given you, search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be open for you. For everyone who asks, receives, and everyone who searches, finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.
Is there anyone among you who, if your child asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if the child asks for a fish, would you give a snake? If you then, who are sinful, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in Heaven give good things to those who ask him! [Matthew 7:7- 11].
Reflection:
The heart of God overflows with a kindness and generosity beyond our understanding, which is the core of Our Lady's message today: "You dear children, are not conscious of the great love God has for you." Because of this, he can deny us nothing that is good, if we but seek it in prayer: "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find."
Like a father giving bread to his son, God's power and gifts are available to all his children. The key is prayer; as the Gospa says, "consecrate your time to God, and then he will bestow gifts upon you and bless you."
Application:
Today, offer the rosary for the intention that God provide = for all your needs, and that you may more deeply understand his love.

His-Prophet

Thus Saith the Lord 2008


The Lord Jesus began appearing to me while I lay dying of cancer in Roswell NM
in Nov 1993. He usually appears in an intense white light while I am praying, I
am unable to speak I can only listen. The Lords words were usually encouragement
and guidance for me, but in January 2003 that changed. Herein follows the words
of our Savior and King, Jesus to the nation and the church.



1-18-08

"Speak what I give you!

Did I not say, judgment has begun? MY so-called people, can you not see the
writing on the wall?

This nation corrupts everything it touches.

I AM looking for clean hearts and clean hands. People, put nothing ahead of ME
and MY ways.

Things of this world are wasting away quickly.

I will not Tarry!"



1-28-08

"I come like a roaring lion, do not mistake ME.

Many are falling away. Their love for ME is growing cold. Can you not see it MY
remnant?

Do not be unequally yoked."



2-27-08

"Yes, things are preparing to change. One minute all will see and believe
everything is normal. The next minute everything will change.

You need to bring as many as you can into MY Kingdom. NOW!

All read Chapter 6 of MY Book Revelation. LO, time is near."




3-1-08 The Lord awakened me at 2:30 A.M. with this word:

" Did I not say, I would take away what this nation USA holds dear?

It is not only this nation, all surrounding nations will be touched.

You hard-necked people have put trust in human means and now it is failing you.

Your means no longer work! This is the start.

I have spoken." .



3-8-08 FIREBALLS

For almost two years I have had numerous visions of fireballs falling in various
parts of the nation. Until now the Lord never revealed their signifigance.

"The fireballs are coming from other nations. They will hit the USA, Canada, and
England.

You see I judge all nations. I use those who work for the enemy to bring about
MY judgment.

I do as I please. Am I still not the God of love and justice?" .




3-10-08 A WARNING FOR THIS NATION

The Lord spoke to me and gave me these verses for this nation (USA) and its
people.

Jer 5:8 They were like well-fed lusty stallions; Every one neighed after his
neighbor's wife.
Jer 5:9 Shall I not punish them for these things?" says the Lord."And shall I
not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?

Jer 5:12 They have lied about the Lord, And said, "It is not He. Neither will
evil come upon us, Nor shall we see sword or famine.
Jer 5:13 And the prophets become wind, For the word is not in them. Thus shall
it be done to them."

Jer 5:15 Behold, I will bring a nation against you from afar, O house of
Israel," says the Lord."It is a mighty nation, It is an ancient nation, A nation
whose language you do not know, Nor can you understand what they say.

Jer 5:17 And they shall eat up your harvest and your bread, Which your sons and
daughters should eat. They shall eat up your flocks and your herds; They shall
eat up your vines and your fig trees; They shall destroy your fortified cities,
In which you trust, with the sword.

Jer 5:27 As a cage is full of birds, So their houses are full of deceit.
Therefore they have become great and grown rich.
Jer 5:28 They have grown fat, they are sleek; Yes, they surpass the deeds of the
wicked; They do not plead the cause, The cause of the fatherless; Yet they
prosper, And the right of the needy they do not defend.
Jer 5:29 Shall I not punish them for these things?' says the Lord.'Shall I not
avenge Myself on such a nation as this?'

Then HE spoke:"I bring a nation whose language you do not understand. You have
become a fat and lazy nation. There is no fear of ME! Large cities are no place
of refuge." .



3-17-08 DISASTER DECREED

" Did I not tell you disaster is coming?

I AM setting up two nations, who are plotting war against USA.

The two nations which I have set up are China and Russia.

You see, I set all things in motion for MY return.

Pr 21:31 The horse is prepared for the day of battle, But deliverance is of the
Lord.


3-26-08 IN AN INSTANT

" Changes are happening. Tell all. The world as they know it wiil be changed in
an instant.

LO, I AM warning!"

Read Daniel 8:5-14


4-20-08

Life as you know it is almost over.

What MY saints are to do is to keep their eyes on ME and not the world.

I put everything on earth and Lo, I have blessed many, but they horde blessings
and do not share MY blessings.

So many take their eyes off ME. Life will not go on as you all know.

I will not and can not let the sin and unrighteousness continue.

It is rampant here and in other nations.

But, you see I have given much to the nation USA and much is required.

But, Lo you have neglected the requiring part of the word of MINE.

Tell all this. .

Messages to John Leary-April 9-April 23, 2008


Wednesday, April 9, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, when you have a glass display as this small glass hutch
in the vision, you want to show off your best looking items that you own. So it
is with your life, you want to show off your best success stories and take the
personal credit for them. Your failures and your sins you do not want to show,
or even talk about, and you even make excuses when they become known. I see
everything of every soul in a full light, both the good and the bad. I make a
judgment of your life based on the intentions in your heart for every action.
Everything, that you have, has been gifted to you from My abundance of graces
and blessings. You should therefore be giving Me all of the glory for your
successes, and not just yourself. You should not carry out your work just to
gain fame for yourself, but you should be eager to work so you can give Me all
of the glory. Everything, that you do, should be for My greater glory. Then your
humility will be sincere, and you will not be boasting of yourself.? (2 Cor
10:17) ?But he who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.? (Eph 2:8,9) ?For by grace
you have been saved through faith; and that not from yourselves for it is the
gift of God; not as the outcome of works, lest anyone may boast.?

Thursday, April 10, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, I sent My apostles out to evangelize souls all over the
world. They taught My Word, baptized the people, cast out demons, and healed
many. St. Philip was allowed to vanish from the eunuch because My apostles could
also bilocate to spread their mission. Many powers were bestowed upon My
apostles so the people could see their works and believe in My power that was in
them. (Mark 16:17,18) ?And these signs shall attend those who believe: in My
Name they shall cast out devils; they shall speak in new tongues; they shall
take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them;
they shall lay hands upon the sick and they shall get well.? St. Peter, even
through My Name, raised Tabitha from the dead at Joppa. (Acts 9:36-43) Many
miracles were performed before the people through My disciples, and even today
healings still occur and demons are exorcized from people. Those, who pray in My
Name in true trust, will also see miracles and healings through the power of My
Name as St. Peter and St. John healed the lame beggar. (Acts 3:1-11) Trust in Me
through all of your trials, and if you should encounter evil spirits, you can
bind these evil spirits in My Name to the foot of My cross, and they will obey
you. Some or groups of evil spirits may require prayer and fasting as My
apostles experienced. My power is greater than the evil spirits, as I have
defeated sin and death on My Resurrection.?

Prayer Group:

Jesus said: ?My people, there are some people who are addicted to alcohol, and
having one drink could lead them into drinking to excess. This addiction to
alcohol is difficult to cure until that person realizes that they have a
problem, and they desire to get help. Some organizations as Alcoholics
Anonymous, and some government organizations can direct them to handle
withdrawal symptoms. There are demons attached to these addictions and
deliverance prayers are needed to exorcize these spirits. At times you need to
be loving these people by removing their source of alcohol. This vision of just
bottles of carbonated soda is a hint to stop the excessive drinking of alcohol.
By not being an enabler and much prayer, you can give any alcoholic the best
chance for recovery.?
Jesus said: ?My people, you have been witnessing several weeks of severe weather
where tornadoes and rainstorms have been causing great devastation and
widespread flooding. Fortunately, enough warning is being given so most people
are able to get into basements or safe rooms for protection from the strong
winds. Much damage has occurred and it is continuing to increase as the flooding
along the Mississippi River causes further problems downstream. Pray for the
people affected that they will be safe and have help provided for them.?

Jesus said: ?My people, it is unfortunate that some so-called religious groups
are encouraging polygamy and the abuse of young girls in a restrained
relationship with older men. It is first hard to understand how the parents of
these girls are allowing this to go on. It took one brave girl?s complaint of
abuse to shed light on this whole scene. There are rights at stake, but it is
the abuse of such women and the violation of civil law that has caused the
removal of these women and children to a safer setting. Pray that such an
injustice can be resolved so these young adults could be counseled and given
options where they want to be.?

Jesus said: ?My people, many of you as voters are in a dilemma of who to vote
for. On the Democratic side both candidates have openly advocated in favor of
abortion and even partial birth abortions. The Republican side has advocated to
continue the war for a long time, which I have told you in messages that it
should be stopped to stop so much killing. Killing life in the womb is a sure
death and violates My laws against the Fifth Commandment. Candidates favoring
abortion are the most offensive to Me on moral and physical grounds. People have
freedom to vote as they please, but if your nation continues to support
abortion, you are choosing to call on My wrath in your natural disaster
punishments.?

Jesus said: ?My people, many have speculated about the date for the coming
Warning or Illumination of Conscience. I tell you as I said before that no one
will know the date of the Warning. This time grows closer as all the signs of
evil are about you and many end time signs are occurring. I want My people to
keep your souls pure with frequent Confession so you will always be prepared to
meet Me in your mini-judgment or your judgment at death.?

Jesus said: ?My people, your fuel costs have been hard on your personal budgets,
but this cost for all forms of transportation are raising the cost of many
tickets. Some of this fuel cost will be inflating your food prices as well as
other transported goods. It is hard to place any blame for this problem, but
commodity prices for all goods will increase as the value of your dollar goes
down. Pray for your people as they are facing a recession and some
unemployment.?

Jesus said: ?My people, getting upset or agitated by any event in your life is
not the way to let things affect you. I have told you many times to be pure in
your heart with My grace and protect your peace at all times from anything going
on in the world. When you have trust in Me to help you endure every trial, you
should not have any worries, fears, or anxieties about life?s events. Take each
situation one at a time and call on Me to help you in your needs without losing
your temper or complaining. Be humble in your peace with Me, and you will have
nothing to concern you.?


Friday, April 11, 2008: (Domenic Strollo Funeral Mass)

Jesus said: ?My people, Domenic was very close to nature and he enjoyed cooking
for people, especially his family. That is why this vision of an outdoor get
together is a combination of both things that he liked to do. His friendship and
accommodation of people?s needs was his life. By helping people, you are showing
your love for Me and your love for your neighbor. It is sad to have to say
good-bye to a family member when they die so suddenly. Everyone would have liked
to have been present for him at the moment of his death. Be consoled that he led
a good life, and he will soon be with Me in heaven. You should always direct
your prayers and Masses for those who die, so they will not be forgotten if they
remain awhile in purgatory. Domenic wants to tell everyone of his family and
friends how much he loves them and to thank those who came to the funeral. He
especially wanted to thank those who provided the food. Having a reception to
feed everyone was his best way to say good-bye.?

Jesus said: ?My people, seeing all of these people in war being killed in the
vision is a sign to you how Satan is allowed to rule and directs the one world
people to do his bidding. The one world people with their money and power have
created and carried on the death culture from their master, Satan. These people
create dictators and fund communism to create a need for war and an excuse to
kill millions of people. The ?war on terror? is their latest tactic for constant
war. They fund abortion clinics, the making of AIDS, and many other diseases for
the express purpose of reducing the population. I have mentioned how they will
use chem trails to kill off a major part of the population giving them less
people to control. These are the same people who want to use the mark of the
beast or chips in the body to control people?s minds. They are the same people
who have created the European Union, and are working to bring about the North
American Union, and other unions around the world. Then they will join these
unions into a one world government which they will give over to the Antichrist
to control. This is their evil plan, but I will protect My faithful at My
refuges, and I will warn everyone at the Warning not to take any chips in the
body, and not to worship the Antichrist. At the end of the tribulation, I will
bring My Comet of Chastisement that will destroy all of the chips, and I will
cast all of the evil ones into hell during the three days of darkness. I will
then renew the earth and bring about My Era of Peace for My faithful. Rejoice,
because you will see My victory in your life time.?


Saturday, April 12, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, ?Peace be with you?, is how I greeted My apostles, and
when they saw Me, they believed. Now I come to you in Holy Communion with the
same words, but does everyone believe in My Real Presence under the appearances
of the consecrated Bread and Wine? This is a gift of faith from My heavenly
Father to believe in the transubstantiation of the bread and wine into My Body
and Blood. I told the people: (John 6:54,55) ?Amen, amen, I say to you, unless
you eat the Flesh of the Son of Man and drink His Blood, you shall not have life
in you. He, who eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood, has life everlasting, and I
will raise him up on the last day.? At these words many had difficulty in
believing in Me, and they turned away from Me. I questioned My apostles, but St.
Peter was faithful and said: (John 6:69,70) ?Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou
hast words of everlasting life, and we have come to believe and to know that
Thou are the Christ, the Son of God.? This is the same faith that I ask of all
of My disciples, to believe that I am fully present, Body and Blood in the
consecrated bread and wine. I know that a good number of Catholics do not
believe in My Real Presence, but I am still there just the same, whether they
believe it or not. This is why when you receive Me in Holy Communion, you have
the closest taste of heaven because I am intimately present to you in your soul
and body. Treasure this time with Me, and share your troubles and thoughts with
Me, for I will give you the grace to endure all of the trials of life. If you
have Me sacramentally present in My Church, how could you leave Me for any other
belief??

Jesus said: ?My people, this vision shows one of My faithful on the cross, but I
am still there with them in sharing their pain. Many people are struggling in
these hard economic times. You are having to pay more for your gas and food
which are basic to every family. Taxes on your property, health care costs, and
cost for education are always increasing at a faster rate than your income is
increasing. The poor and those on fixed incomes are finding it even harder
because there is no fat or vacation money to cut back on. Those, who have
experienced damage to their homes from natural disasters, or those, who are
losing their homes to foreclosures, are completely stressed out. As your
recession progresses, there are still more to suffer who are losing their jobs.
Call on My help in carrying your cross for both financial and physical problems.
When you trust in Me, I will help you to work through your trials.?


Sunday, April 13, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, I am the Good Shepherd and My faithful follow My voice
as I lead you on your path to heaven. My faithful need to have complete trust in
Me as sheep follow the shepherd. When you come to Mass, I feed My faithful with
the Bread of heaven in My Eucharist. Every day call on Me, and I will be at your
side to lead you to green pastures. Even as I shepherd you, I call on all of you
as well to go out and shepherd the lost and lukewarm sheep of My Church. There
are some who stray away from Sunday Mass and the sacraments. They need to be
brought back to Confession and appreciate the reverence that should be given to
My Real Presence in My Blessed Sacrament. You especially need to teach and
encourage your young people the importance of honoring the Lord?s Day by coming
to Mass on Sunday. At times it is hard to find many young people coming to
church because their parents are not keeping up their spiritual traditions. I
call on My faithful to keep strong in your faith, and be a good example to your
family members and those in the world.?


Monday, April 14, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, I am making a suggestion to My faithful, and especially
to those who have refuges, or who are preparing interim refuges with Mass kits
and vestments. I know it is difficult to suggest refuge preparation to some
priests, but they too will have to seek protection from the coming persecution
of religious people. Many have secured Mass preparations, but you also should
pray for a priest, or talk to some priests that you are providing a place to
stay for the underground Church. These priests may not want to hear of the
coming tribulation, but they would appreciate knowing of some places to go when
trouble comes. I told you that in the coming tribulation you would be fortunate
to find a priest for Mass. Even if you cannot have a priest for Mass, I will
have My angels deliver My Blessed Sacrament on to your tongues. In situations
even today when you cannot get to a Mass, you can pray to Me to have a spiritual
Communion so you can be united with Me every day. You are seeing closing
churches and fewer Masses being offered as you deal with people who are falling
away from their faith. These end time signs are all around you, so prepare the
best that you can for underground Masses, and for a priest to say Mass and be
with you.?

Jesus said: ?My people, you have seen many churches closed all over your
country, and many of them may be in disrepair. This vision of this small church
is a suggestion for purchase by some prayer groups that want to have a refuge
for people to come to. The land of a church has been consecrated and this is one
requirement for a refuge. A church in a more remote location may suit a better
place for such a refuge. This also is already built, even though it may need
some repairs. It is sad that they are closing so many of My churches where
people are losing the opportunities of having My sacraments and visiting My
tabernacles. By making some churches into refuges, they still could be used for
religious purposes than being destroyed or used for secular uses. This requires
prayer, discernment, and a purchase commitment for those undertaking such a
project. Trust in Me that any such refuge would have My angel protection, and it
would provide for those needing a place to stay during the coming tribulation.?


Tuesday, April 15, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, you are reading accounts of My Early Church and how My
disciples had to suffer much persecution, and actually had to hide in order to
save their lives. All of My apostles, except St. John, had to suffer martyrdom,
but they are all in heaven with Me for their being faithful to Me, even under
the threat of death. Some of My disciples chose to suffer great torture rather
than give up their faith. Even today I do not know how many would be willing to
suffer death instead of giving up their faith. In the coming tribulation you
will be persecuted severely again. You will be tested with giving up your wealth
and possessions if you do not take the mark of the beast or a computer chip in
your body. Refuse to take any chips in your body, and refuse to worship anyone
but Me. Eventually, the evil ones will even want to kill you in death camps if
you are religious and believe in following Me. Following Me has its costs in
this life, but your reward in heaven is a far better reward than any earthly
loss.?

Jesus said: ?My people, it is not too often that you have the Pope in Benedict
XVI come to visit your country. He comes at a time when the priest scandal is
still fresh in your memory. The Pope is trying to heal the wounds of any lost
trust in the priesthood all over America. Your Catholic faithful need some
leadership in how to move on after this scandal. In addition to this problem,
there is a declining membership, and churches and schools are being closed. The
Pope is in your country to rally the faithful and put new life back into the
Roman Catholic Church in America. Join with him in these rallies to rekindle the
Light of faith so My people of America can repent of their sins and come closer
to your Lord. You are approaching a time of evil when you will need all of the
spiritual strength that you can gather. I am with you always in My Blessed
Sacrament to bring you to your reward in My Era of Peace.?


Wednesday, April 16, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, I am warning you about the coming beast in the
Antichrist, as you are seeing in this vision. I have blanked out his eyes
because he will have demonic powers to entice you to worship him. He will appear
as a man, but he will be very charismatic and with a forked tongue of deception
and lies. He will try to solve the world?s wars with talk of peace. He will be
given control of the world government over the unions, but then he will become a
tyrant ruler enforcing mandatory chips in the body of everyone, or they will be
killed. During the Warning experience you will be warned not to take any chips
in your body and not to worship this Antichrist. I have also warned you after
the Warning to remove your TVs and computer monitors out of your houses so you
do not look at the Antichrist?s eyes of powerful deception. When you see
mandatory chips in the body, massive disease spread by chem trails, and martial
law, you should call on Me, and your guardian angels will lead you to the
nearest refuge. These refuges will be places of My Blessed Mother?s apparitions,
holy ground places, or caves. At My refuges you will find the luminous cross and
healing water to protect you from diseases and all illnesses. My angels will
protect you from the evil ones who will be trying to kill you because you are
with Me. The battle of good and evil will become more physical, but you will see
the evil ones lose the Battle of Armageddon. There will be some who are martyred
for their faith, but they will become instant saints. Have patience and hope in
My power since at the height of the Antichrist?s power, I will come and defeat
him with My Comet of Chastisement. I will send the evil ones to hell, and renew
the earth for My Era of Peace.?

Jesus said: ?My people, this vision of a fortress of protection represents
another means of your spiritual protection. I gave you a message earlier of how
to put on your spiritual armor to fight the demons. There is another defense as
well, and this relates to the foundation of your faith. In your early years, you
were taught the faith in your Catholic grammar school and in Catholic college.
You were also given good example from your father and mother. It is one gift of
faith to be given an opportunity to be taught about the sacraments and how to
live a Christian life of love of God and neighbor. It is another gift of faith
to remain faithful to these beliefs throughout your whole life. You are tempted
many times to follow the worldly ways, New Age, or false religions. But if you
are firmly rooted in your spiritual foundations and traditions, you will have My
strength to dismiss these temptations and remain faithful to Me. Pray that you
will be strong through these temptations, and you can heal any wounds of sin in
Confession in your repenting of sin.?


Thursday, April 17, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, I am giving another message for those planning to have
refuges and even interim refuges. I have given you before that you will find
water at all of My refuges because you cannot survive without enough water. The
small problem comes that you cannot depend on a public water company to deliver
your water line because they will be controlled by the Antichrist, and you would
not want a chip in your body to pay them for the water. This is why you need an
independent source of water for drinking, washing, bathing, and for any gardens.
I am showing you a deep shaft for a water well that would be desirable to have
built in preparation for this need for water. If you cannot have one, I will
still provide your water miraculously. This making of a well is just one more
job that you will need for your preparations. Preferably you would want a
mechanical backup in case you cannot provide electricity. Water may seem simple
and ordinary, but it will be crucial for having many people at your refuge. I
have been emphasizing these refuge preparations because the time for your trial
and persecution are not far off, and you need to follow My advice to be prepared
physically and spiritually.?

Prayer Group:

Jesus said: ?My people, you are seeing Pope Benedict XVI working to try to bring
reconciliation to the victims of the priest?s abuse that has caused such a
scandal. Even though these abuses are grievous, it is the lawyers who are
profiting most from the money won in these trials. This is why many churches and
church funds have been lost to these lawyers and their clients for cases of over
thirty years ago. This pope is also trying to bring peace between various
religions. Pray for your priests, bishops, and the pope, that they may lead My
faithful on the right path to heaven.?

Jesus said: ?My people, seeing this trumpet in the vision should alert you to
the angels who will blow their trumpets in the Book of Revelation. There are
seven trumpets and these angels are already warning you of the events that they
will usher in at each of their trumpets. These events are definitely a part of
the coming tribulation which is already giving signs of its beginning. I would
ask that you read about these trumpets in Revelation to be aware of what is
about to take place.?

Jesus said: ?My people, you have seen the author of the Harry Potter books in
the news defending her copyright from others writing on this subject. She has
become a rich person from selling these books, but she has poisoned many young
minds who read about these spells and incantations that lead directly to
witchcraft. There is evil hidden in these stories, and it is even more appalling
that she is spreading this for a profit. Avoid the Harry Potter books and movies
in your house because they could lead to an evil influence.?

Jesus said: ?My people, I have given you the blueprint for the takeover of the
North American countries of America, Mexico, and Canada by the one world people.
They want to do away with national boundaries and national sovereignty so they
can move ahead with their plans for a world government that they call ?the new
world order?. You have seen how by stealth that the European Union was put in
place without any consent of the people. Now again this North American Union
will be forced on the people in the same way without the consent of the voters
in each country. These unions will be combined for the Antichrist?s coming to
power all over the world. Have no fear because in the end I will be the victor
over these evil ones as they will be cast into hell.?

Jesus said: ?My people, praise and worship are reserved strictly for God and not
for any earthly figure, no matter how famous, rich, or powerful that they may
be. You have seen such figures that have led countries to strive for world
control. Communism and Nazism have both sought world domination. Now you are
seeing the one world people striving for a world government through their money
and power in setting up unions of countries on various continents. This movement
is being led by Satan as he wants the Antichrist to reign over this new world
order.?

Jesus said: ?My people, be aware that the one world people are already making
preparations for capturing religious and patriotic people whom they see as a
threat to their new world order. This vision of shackles on trucks and railroad
cars is real as you have discovered, and people will be taken to detention
center death camps at the announcing of martial law. I have My faithful also
making preparations at refuges so My people will have a place of protection to
hide from the authorities who will try to kill you for your faith in Me. Read in
the Book of Revelation how the evil ones want to kill those who will not take
the mark of the beast and will not worship the Antichrist. Pray for My help to
warn you when it is the time to go to My refuges with your guardian angel.?

Jesus said: ?My people, I have given you many messages concerning the
preparations for My refuges. I have told you that everyone will have their own
living quarters, even if it has to be a multistory building where there is
little land. Be at peace that I will perform many miracles of grace through My
angels that will protect you and provide for your needs. It is difficult to tell
people of this coming tribulation, but they can read about it in the Book of
Revelation and see all of the signs of evil all around that describe the end
times. Be patient and have hope in your God, for I will be the victor over these
evil ones. You will have your reward for being faithful to Me when you come into
My Era of Peace.?

Jesus said: ?My people, some people have a deeper feeling for knowing the roots
of their family name than others. Some even research their ancestry back several
hundred years. This coat of arms in the vision is a sign of who your family is.
All of you have roots that eventually lead back to the first man, Adam. Years
ago knights would wear their family coat of arms on their shields. You may not
need shields in your physical world, but you do need shields and protection in
the battle of good and evil with the demons in the spiritual world. Those souls,
who are struggling to reach heaven, know of this battle of your spirit against
the desires of the body. It is a daily fight that you wage against the
temptations of the world and the devil. In every action you must choose between
Me and the world. Your goal should be to know, love, and serve Me, which means
avoiding sin against My Commandments. Some souls, who are more worldly, do not
even realize that there is a battle going on for souls because they have lost
their shame of sin. I call on My faithful to pick up your crosses and follow Me
because your battle shield is using My protection and that of your guardian
angel. You are to wear the armor of your faith and blessed sacramentals to
protect you from the demons. The more you allow evil and sin into your life, the
weaker you will be in fighting off temptations. So keep strong against the evil
one by calling on My Name against him, having a good prayer life, and going to
at least monthly Confession. Not only should you fight to save your own soul,
but you should also fight the evil ones in saving and protecting other souls in
the world who may be weak against sin.?

Jesus said: ?My people, I am giving you an inside picture of what it will be
like when prisoners, who refused chips in the body, are sent to the detention
center death camps. There is no doubt that the intention of the one world people
is to eliminate the religious and patriotic people that they detest. They will
gas their prisoners with toxic gases to kill large numbers at a time. Then they
will cremate the bodies in very hot incinerators to get rid of the bodies. This
elimination of those on their hit list is in addition to the large number of
people that they will kill with deadly viruses from the chem trails. Those, who
want to be martyrs, can stay in their homes and the men in black will carry you
off to the death chambers as in Nazi Germany during World War II. Those, who
want to be protected at My refuges, will call on My Name and I will direct your
guardian angel to lead you to the nearest refuge of protection. Trust in Me and
I will make you invisible to your enemies so you can be shielded from them
harming you. Give praise and glory to your Lord as you thank Me for providing
you these refuges of protection by My angels. Be patient and you soon will see
your reward in My Era of Peace.?


Saturday, April 19, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, today in the reading from the Acts of the Apostles St.
Paul quotes from Isaiah (49:6): ?I have made you a Light to the Gentiles, that
you may be an instrument of salvation to the ends of the earth.? This was a
prophesy about Me that I was not only sent for the salvation of the lost sheep
of Israel, but I was sent for the salvation of everyone, including the Gentiles.
St. Paul was My missionary among the Gentiles and they were exceedingly happy to
receive My Word and many were converted to the faith. Many of you today may not
be a part of the chosen people of the Jews, but you also are among the Gentiles
and are happy and joyful that you are a part of My faithful disciples. You do
not have to be a Jewish person to be saved, because I died on the cross for the
salvation of all of mankind from their sins. Everyone will know in their Warning
experience that you cannot come to heaven unless you come through Me. As I told
My apostles, the Father and I are One in the Blessed Trinity. I am the way and
the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. So My
people of today, even if you are Gentiles, you have eternal life through Me.?

Jesus said: ?My people, when you saw the closed doors to the church, they
represented the closed hearts to My love. Many times I come knocking on the door
of your heart, but each person has to make a personal choice to let Me into
their lives. When these greeters opened the doors, they were not only letting
the people come into Mass, but they symbolized how this whole church was now
open to My graces and My love. In order for Me to come into your lives, you must
place Me at the focal point of your life. Consecrate everything over to Me, and
I will lead you on your path to accomplish your mission in life. Everyone needs
to accept things openly with an open mind so you can understand My ways without
being clouded by the ways of the world. Pray for discernment in all that you do
so you have Me helping you through every trial in your life. By keeping My peace
in your heart and being open to understand what is expected of you, you can
accomplish the mission that I have given you.?

Sunday, April 20, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, in today?s Gospel reading I want to focus you on one
statement: ?I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life.? This vision of an open
Bible is showing you the way to heaven by My Word in the Gospels. When you read
the accounts of My life, I am giving you a life of love to imitate. St. Thomas
asked Me where is this way, but I offer you eternal life so you can follow the
path to heaven. This path is the same way to Calvary that each one of you must
pick up your cross and carry. You share your everyday suffering with My
suffering on the cross. The Way of the Cross is not desired by the body or
worldly people, but it is the only way to prove your faith in My words. I have
also given you the words when you know the Truth, and the Truth will set you
free of the bonds of your sins. There is truth in all of My words that you can
read in the Gospels. You can depend on Me that I will never lead you astray, and
I will always love you. This is contrary to Satan who can mix in lies with true
facts, but he always hates you. While I was on trial before Pilate, I told him
that I was born to testify to the Truth. Everyone who belongs to the Truth
listens to My voice. One of the most profound statements that I gave on Life was
when I talked to Martha right before I raised Lazarus from the dead. (John
11:25,26) ?I am the Resurrection and the Life; whoever believes in Me, even if
he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die.?
This is a contrast between the life of the body and eternal life of the soul.
Once you come to heaven, you will truly have life to the fullest. Only after the
final judgment will you be reunited with your body and you will be made whole
again. This eternal life with Me in the beatific vision is the ultimate goal of
your soul.?


Monday, April 21, 2008: (St. Anselm)

Jesus said: ?My people, in the first reading you saw how St. Paul healed a
crippled man when he saw that the man had faith to be healed. I also healed many
people while I was present to you as a man, and I went one step further because
I wanted to heal the whole person. This is why many times I told the person
?your sins are forgiven? first to heal their soul, and then I healed their
limbs, their eyes, and even a few I raised from the dead. The people around St.
Paul were astounded that he could heal a crippled man from birth. Their reaction
was to praise St. Paul as a god instead of giving praise and thanks to Me. Even
among your people, they are more awed by a healing of the body, than a
conversion of the heart to loving Me. But the body is in a constant state of
decay, and a healing only postpones another failing, and eventually death
itself. It is the soul that lives on forever and it is immortal, whereas the
body is mortal and last but a short time. Among mankind a gift of conversion is
a mild thanks, but in heaven there is great rejoicing among every angel and
saint over one that is saved on earth. Be grateful to Me for any physical
healing, but see the need even on earth to rejoice even more when a soul is
converted to the faith and believes in Me.?

For Father Bill: Jesus said: ?My people of this church, you have great faith in
Me and you have built a beautiful shrine and cross to honor My Blessed Mother
and Me. These grounds are consecrated and they will truly be a place of
protection for the people in the end times. I will have My angels protect this
area and provide for the food and water and shelter for those who come here.
Many of My messengers have had messages and visions here, so they are your
blessing for this refuge.?

Jesus said: ?My people, today I want to direct your attention to the need for
family prayer both at meals and praying the rosary together. Whenever you have
two or more praying together, I am there in your midst. It is not easy to have
the family together for the evening meal, but you can try to make prayer a
family custom at that time. You all have busy schedules, but put aside a few
minutes after supper to pray the rosary together. You have wars and much discord
in the world, and world peace starts with peace among each family. Family prayer
is very powerful in protecting the family from divorce, discord among members,
or a falling away from the faith. By daily prayer you are also giving good
example to your children in having a good prayer life to help them through the
difficulties of life. Life will always have challenges and troubles to deal
with, but if you have Me and My Blessed Mother helping you, they will not be as
severe. We are always available to you in prayer, so call on us every day for
help in your daily consecration of everything over to us. By loving Me and
everyone, and walking in My Light of grace, you will have fulfilled your mission
in life. Remember your family prayer because it is an important part of your
life.?


Tuesday, April 22, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, as I was about to go back to My Father in heaven, I was
preparing My apostles to wait for the Holy Spirit to empower them in
evangelizing all nations to a belief in My words. My apostles were very excited
to see Me after My Resurrection, but now they had to realize that they would not
be seeing Me anymore in the flesh. My faithful of today have already received
Confirmation with the Holy Spirit, and I call you also to evangelize all the
nations. I give My peace and graces to you so you will have the strength to
accomplish your mission. Rejoice as My apostles did, because it is so important
to spread the Word of My Good News of salvation to all of the people.?

Jesus said: ?My people, this car crashing is a sign that you could have trouble
keeping your cars running if you do not have enough gasoline to run them. If
fuels become too expensive or become in short supply, this could drastically
affect how your people eat and travel. There are not enough alternate fuel
supplies available to replace all of the gasoline that is currently being used.
Other means of travel may come back to horse and buggy if cars and trucks no
longer have any fuel, or if there are cut backs to limit the burning of fossil
fuels. The hay falling off of the buckboard in the vision represents an
increasing shortage of enough food to feed the world. Poorer crop yields from
not enough water, and various insect damage could lead to famines in various
parts of the world. As deserts grow larger, fresh water becomes scarce, and farm
land decreases due to building new homes, then there will be less farm land to
provide for the food of the world. Good farm land is being used for the wrong
reasons, and America may see food shortages from this as a result. Pray for the
food and water that you will need, and for the food that will need to be
multiplied for your survival.?


Wednesday, April 23, 2008

Jesus said: ?My people, this view of a small area for gathering the cattle for
slaughter represents how some ranchers are culling their herds because it is
getting too expensive to feed them with grains. This same problem is true for
chickens and other animals sold for meat. The idea to grow corn to make ethanol
is now creating a demand for more corn seed and fertilizer which is competing
with food crops for land and seed as well. You are seeing shortages and higher
food prices as the cost of fuel to run tractors and ship the produce increases
as well. If America is having problems to supply their own food, imagine how the
rest of the world is hurting to grow enough food. You keep seeing news articles
in the third world of increasing problems with crops and famines. The signs of a
coming world famine are all around you. As you see more natural disasters,
diseases, and pest problems increase, you could see an increasing risk of a
coming world famine. Pray for the hungry people to find enough food, as many
will begin dying as a world famine continues.?

Message from Jesus to Patsy Soto May 4,2008

Sunday May 4, 2008
9:07 PM

Approved for Release by Fr. William Lauriola Spiritual Director for Art & Patsy
Soto - May 5, 2008 10:55 AM

Praise Be to Jesus for Jesus is Lord, Savior, Redeemer, Reconciler of all
nations

(my precious Lord Jesus, I plead your most precious blood over the following
words please only allow me to hear what is from you take all away that is not
from you, for it must always be for your honor and Glory My Lord Jesus Christ)

Beloved little one thank you for opening your heart to My Words. Oh My Little
one you are very apprehensive to take My Words because of the many accusations
and problems. But you must never listen to the world my little one, your focus
must always be on Me. It is not easy to close out the world My Little one, but
you must remember what your very special teachers have given you in direction,
pray, surrender, trust. This is what I ask of all My Children. And yet because
My Words are repeated over and over my children are not realizing that until
they open their hearts to Me that it becomes necessary to repeat My Words.
Prayer, sacrifice, surrender are My Words, My Holy Mother?s Words to many
because hearts are not being opened. If you My children were listening My
Churches would be filled not only each Sunday but even during the week, my
children would make the time to come to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
Eucharistic Adoration would be in every church and My children would come to
visit Me daily. The Confessional would have lines as many times you see in My
Holy Mother?s Land of Medjugorje.

Where are all those of my children who come to fill My Church of St. James?
Oh My children, questions are asked why would I invite continually my children
to open their hearts to My Novena For World Peace? You would not ask this
question if you have attended My Novena For World Peace. Why do so many of your
hearts question that I would ask for sacrifice, sacrifice of gathering together
in prayer, in My Love, My Father?s Love which many of you feel during the time
of My Novena For World Peace. Than you question why do I not allow you to feel
My Presence when you enter into a church to visit, yet how many of you believe
in My True Presence in the Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist?

How may times have you come to visit me, how many of the churches in your area
have Perpetual Adoration? My Beloved Fr. Jozo has said many times not to return
to Medjugorje if you are not going to take to heart My Mother?s Words and live
the messages. It is now time for you each to take to heart not only My Holy
Mother?s Words, but also the words, that I have spoken over and over to My
Beloved Little One, for if you do not respond to the Grace of My Novena For
World Peace this Grace which I have so abundantly showered to all the world
through this My Novena will stop.

Soon you will celebrate Mother?s Day, how many of you remember My Holy Mother
is also your Mother, for I gave her to you from the cross where I died for each
one of you! My children are gathering to Honor My Holy Mother by taking My
Novena For World Peace to Her Shrine, the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe, built
out of love to My Holy Mother in La Crosse! Will you My children open your
hearts to My Invitation of gathering together to make the sacrifice of this
pilgrimage to My Holy Mother?s Shrine on the day before Mother?s Day (Saturday,
May 10).

How many times have I given you invitations of My Love? Have you Listened?
Will you be one of the special roses in the bouquet of love that I desire to
give to My Holy Mother on that day of this special invitation I give you. Each
name will be written in Radiance of Graces on a single rose for each of you who
will honor My Holy Mother, the Eternal Spouse of the Holy Spirit, that She
Herself will present to you as She escorts you on the day of your entrance to My
Eternal Light.

This Bouquet of My Love, will Bring unbound less Graces upon each of you and
your families. I love you My children. Thank you My Little one?s for
continuing to answer My Call in taking My Novena For World Peace wherever you
are invited know that I am with you and all that I have promised will be
accomplished. Receive My Peace My children. Open your hearts to the Graces I
desire to shower upon you, upon the world through My Novena For World Peace,
your Jesus of Mercy

Open My Little one to Isaiah 60 Vs1 - V7- Rise up in splendor! Your light has
come, the glory of the Lord shines upon you. See darkness covers the earth and
thick clouds cover the peoples. But upon you the Lord shines, and over you
appears his glory. Nations shall walk by your light and king by your shining
radiance. Raise your eyes and look about; they all gather and come to you:
Your sons come from afar, and yhour daughters in the arms of their nurses. Then
you shall be radiant at what you see, your heart shall throb and overflow. For
the riches of the sea shall be emptied out before you, the wealth of nations
shall be brought to you. Caravans of camels shall fill you, dromedaries from
Midian and Epah; All from Sheba shall come bearing gold and frankincense, and
proclaiming the praises of the Lord. All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered
for you, the ramsw of Nebaioth shall be your sacrifices. They will be
acceptable offerings on my altar, and I will enhance the splendor of my house.

SATURDAY MAY 10, 2008 - 11:00 AM - SHRINE OF OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE 5250 Justin
Rd. LaCrosse, WI
(BUS ARRANGED - PLEASE CALL KATHY SHOCHOW @ 763-559-9237 FOR INFORMATION )

Fr. Jozo?s passionate testimony is as strong today as it was 27 years ago when
the events of Medjugorje first began. He, like John the Baptist, is a herald in
the wilderness for our times, urging Our Lady?s children to live Her messages
with deep commitment and responsibility as Her witnesses to the world??.


Fr. Jozo, Pastor of Medjugorje in 1981, Easter 2008 Message

Behold your Mother. It is better not to come to Medjugorje at all, than to be
here superficially. That is why I implore you, do not come again if you do not
want to listen to Our Lady. It is better not to come. Because there are people
who do not come, there are Bishops who do not come, there are also priests who
do not come because they are afraid. (Mar. 31, 08).

UNDERDEVELOPED COUNTRIES BUT HAS ALSO HIT THE MORE AFFLUENT ONES. I tend to
worry too and this message is just in time for me to dispel that worry.

WHEN THE DREAM DOES COME TRUE

IT BROUGHT ME GREAT JOY AS YOU GATHERED WEDNESDAY
TO UNITE ONCE AGAIN AND THE ROSARY TO PRAY.
THOUGH THE NUMBERS THAT GATHERED WILL BE LESS THAN BEFORE,
GOD'S GRACES POURED OUT WILL BE YET EVEN MORE.

I KNOW THERE WERE OBSTACLES AND THERE WILL BE MORE STILL,
BUT YOU SHALL OVERCOME THEM BY DOING GOD'S WILL.
SATAN, MY DEAR CHILDREN, ALL WHO PRAY DOES RESENT
AND WILL DO ALL HE CAN TO DISRUPT EACH EVENT.

SATAN, MY DEAR CHILDREN, IS FULLY AWARE
THAT THE END OF HIS REIGN IS NOW GETTING NEAR.
HE WILL DO ALL HE CAN IN THE TIME THAT'S REMAINING
TO KEEP FROM SOULS WHAT GOD PROMISED FOR THEM IN ATTAINING.

CONTINUE TO PRAY WITH YOUR WEAPON IN HAND;
THE ROSARY IS YOUR LIFELINE TO THE NEW PROMISED LAND.
SOON, MY DEAR CHILDREN, THE LAND WILL BE FREE
FROM ALL THAT IS EVIL AS IT WAS MEANT TO BE.

THERE WILL BE NO MORE SORROW; NO MORE TEARS TO BE SHED.
YOU WILL SHARE IN THE BANQUET AS BY ANGELS YOU'RE FED.
YOU WILL LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS THE FATHER LOVES YOU,
AND YOU'LL KNOW THAT THE ROSARY HELPED THIS DREAM TO COME TRUE.

Mother's Day Challenge

Our next Monthly Marian Prayer Group is scheduled for Sunday, May 11, Mother's
Day & Pentecost Sunday, the 2nd Sunday of May. Our Lady, Gianna and the
Foundation realize that many families may already have their own private plans
on that day. However, over the last 20 years, the one prayer intention that has
consistently been presented to Our Lady by Gianna from so many tormented
faithful is the one from mothers whose husbands, children and grandchildren,
whose parents and siblings, have either walked away from the Church, or even
walked away from God.

The Opening Remarks from the April 6, 2008 Prayer Group (
<http://www.tfsih.com/Remarks/Post.aspx> ) dealt with what our Almighty Father,
our Savior Jesus, and our Heavenly Mother have done for us "at all costs."
Perhaps it would be appropriate if all of our mothers prayerfully consider
asking "at all costs," their loved ones to give them a Mother's Day present like
never before - that being to come with you here to the Center of Our Lady's
Immaculate Heart to receive on Mother's Day all the graces that Our Lady wants
to shower upon your family - all the graces your family may so desperately need
in these critical times in salvation history! Build your Mass times and family
meal times that special day around God's tremendous gift to the world - Our
Blessed Mother Mary, the spouse of the Holy Spirit! (Area schedule of Masses to
follow on subsequent enewsletters).

Celebrate Mother's Day in a Special Way... (

MEMBERSHIP ALERT - FREE

It is becoming increasingly apparent to many of those involved with the
newsletter that so many people in the United States and even outside the United
States, who love Our Lady and who have followed closely the Messages of Our Lady
of Emmitsburg for many years, are not aware of the Foundation website and the
6-7 enewsletters that are available FREE each month by email. They are forwarded
the monthly email message from someones distribution list, but are amazed when
they realize what they could be getting several times a month. These
enewsletters include:

a. Current and pertinent past Messages of Our Lady of Emmitsburg

b. Timely past Lessons of Our Lord

c. Timely excerpts from the Hidden Life of Our Lord

d. Current and pertinent past Words of God the Father

e. Excerpts from or complete texts of inspirational Papal Encyclicals and
homilies

f. Litanies and novenas for personal use that correspond to the liturgical
seasons, feast days or current world needs and events, and which allow the
members to pray together as a community

g. Orthodox writings of the Saints, Popes and Marian Scholars

h. Links to other Marian events/news

i. Videos of the monthly apparitions of Our Lady to Gianna and of guest speakers
to the Prayer Group

j. Encouragement to the faithful to broaden the scope of their prayer lives and
exposure to the rich Tradition of the Roman Catholic Church

Many would believe that difficult times lie ahead in this world. Our Lady wants
this system of rapid communication and dissemination of information in place.
The mission of the Foundation of the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary is
to provide that. Through this website and its enewsletters, written text and
links, as well as video information can now almost immediately be widely
distributed throughout the world. However, MORE people need to know about this.
Only you can forward this information to them so that they can engage either by
the internet or by US mail!

Pope Benedict XVI Monthly Prayer Intentions - May 2008

Join in praying daily for the May 2008 monthly intentions of our Holy Father:

HUMAN DIGNITY: That Christians may use literature, art, and mass media to create
a culture which defends and promotes the values of the human person.

MARY'S GUIDANCE: That the Virgin Mary, Star of evangelization and Queen of the
Apostles, may still guide missionaries with maternal affection, just as she
accompanied the Apostles in the early stages of the Church.

DAILY OFFERING PRAYER - O Jesus, through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of
Mary, I offer You my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings of this day in union
with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for all
the intentions of Your Sacred Heart: the salvation of souls, reparation for sin,
and the reunion of all Christions. I offer them for the intentions of our
bishops and of all Apostles of Prayer, and in particular for those recommended
by our Holy Father this month.

Jesus Asks For Our Trust In Him



At the 8:00 A.M. Mass at my parish, Our Lady Of Sorrows, I made humble
offerings to Jesus and Mary and prayed for all with special needs and
intentions. Prior to receiving the Body and Blood of Christ, I made an Act Of
Contrition.

After receiving the Most Sacred Host in the Sacrament of Holy Communion, I
knelt in silent commune with Jesus. I thanked Him for His many blessings and
asked Him to please cover me with His most precious blood. Then I prayed; Speak
Lord (if it be Your will), Your servant listens.

Jesus responded to my prayer saying; Eileen My child, many of My children
place their trust in world Experts and anticipate the threat of the East. Yet I
tell you there is only One who knows all and unexpectedly, there will come a
terror from the West.

Do not place your trust in the world, but give your trust to Me. Go in
peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and
sisters. Amen.

Note: Geography is not an area in which I am very knowledgeable. Therefore, in
looking at a map of the world, especially that part which lies West of America,
I see only the Pacific Ocean or maybe Alaska Could it be that the melting of the
Ice in Alaska will cause problems in the Pacific Ocean that will bear upon
America?

Jesus The Redeemer

My Son,

I come to you this evening with a message of great urgency for the world. You
are now in very tumultuous times for humanity. The forces of darkness that have
been perpetuating among you for many centuries are now in the process of
bringing their plans for world domination to fruition. But alas, their plans
will be foiled because God the Father in the Heavenly Kingdom never intended for
humans to exercise so much power and control over their fellow brothers and
sisters.

When I walked upon the Earth among the brothers and sisters 2,000 years ago, the
problems of the world were grave but very different from what you are
experiencing now. Ever since God the Father was originally disappointed by His
Creations, mankind has grown increasingly further and further away from the
orderly plan for humanity as willed by the Father.

The Love, the Eternal Love of the Father, for all of His creations was available
to all of humanity initially in a way that was self-evident to all human souls.
But through the practice of free will, many among you through the ages have
chosen to joust with God?s plan and to assume that you have the earthly right to
assume a place of authority over mankind that is not from God the Father, but
from the darkness of our enemies who have been cast out of the heavenly realms.

Throughout history these despots have manipulated and controlled brothers and
sisters for the fulfillment of their own greedy and materialistic desires. When
I walked among you 2000 years ago, the Brethren who followed me saw the folly of
pursuing materialistic pleasures, and they elevated themselves above the fray of
materialism that traps so many of you here on Earth in a pursuit of
materialistic pleasures and distractions from your mission in life.

Now, in the world of today, because of the advances that mankind has made in
your philosophies, your sciences, and your technologies, mankind has mastered
many of the gifts that the Father foresaw for humanity in the future world.
However, those among you, who have aligned yourselves with the dark forces, have
gathered together in clandestine groups and societies that are hell bent in
doing the work of the evil one by subjugating all of mankind to their service at
the expense of individual freedoms and gifts that were bestowed upon all of you
by the Father. These masters of the universe, as they call themselves in private
conversations, are but pawns of the dark prince. Many of them are operating
willingly in this regard, while many others among them are being fooled, even by
their leaders, but who are still none the less doing the work of the evil one.

You are now being manipulated and controlled in the way you are being led to
think; in how you are being asked to spend your money; and in how you are being
told that morality and ethics have no place in a relativistic world that these
princes and followers of darkness have designed and are now implementing to
subjugate all of you to their desires and wishes.

They have set in place plans and strategies to control all of the resources of
the world; the natural resources that are created by the land and the seas, as
well as man-made resources that are the result of modern technology and
improvements for the well-being of mankind.

However, their ways and means of regulating these resources are intended to
create a global society of feudal subjects while benefiting only the
self-proclaimed leaders of this movement. They have been operating in darkness
and secrecy for many centuries, but they are now readying their plans and the
implementation of these plans to the point that now many of you, my brothers and
sisters, are becoming more and more aware that the evil one is afoot in the
world through his legion of human slaves. They are the shadowy and sinister
promoters of a new world order, an order that is opposite the plan of the
Father, and an order that will only create the chaos of the evil one in your
world.

Those of you who are attuned to this sinister conspiracy against mankind have a
spiritual and earthly responsibility to sound the alarm to your brothers and
sisters for the fate of the world rests in your hands to turn the tide from the
darkness of this new world order and transform the world through the light of
the Father that I am now bringing to you through prayer and meditation for those
who are willing to receive my messages and inspiration for you in these
troubling times.

I want to assure you that the dark one will only have his way with the world as
he does now for only a brief time. For the manifestation of the Holy Spirit is
becoming increasingly stronger to assist you in your work to turn the tide of
humanity in the direction that the Father in Heaven expects of you to rescue the
world from the darkness of these shadowy power brokers and self-proclaimed
leaders who are planning to control and enslave all of humanity.

Prepare for the difficult times ahead. The signs of the times are already
manifesting themselves among you as you see your economies becoming unreliable,
confused, and increasingly more chaotic. This condition is also being mirrored
in the activities of the Earth itself, which is experiencing the pains of
darkness created by humanity because of the few among you who are manipulating
and controlling the resources of the world for evil purposes.

Increasingly, there will be more turmoil in the world caused by the human
activities as well as geophysical turmoil, also caused by the sins of mankind.
Prepare yourself now for troubling times ahead. Prepare your families and
friends and read the signs of the times so that you are prepared to live within
a world that becomes increasingly more chaotic.

Know that I am with you through this difficult time and know that you have my
word that the dark prince and his followers are implementing their secret plans
for naught, because the power of the Holy Spirit will descend upon humanity
during these difficult times in ways that will transform all of humanity into
loving, knowing, and understanding souls, who begin more and more to implement
plans and works that are influenced by the Father in Heaven.

Expect that the shadowy leaders behind your governments, economies, and
institutions will attempt to quell this rebellion that is interfering with their
plans, but they will be outnumbered by God?s legions who will continue to expose
those who are attempting to manipulate the world, its human inhabitants, and its
resources, so that they can rule the world. This plan of theirs will be thwarted
for the benefit of all humanity.

In order to finally defeat your enemy, you will have to refuse many orders that
they attempt to implement, and there may be strong repercussions to your
revolting against their plans. But you must remain courageous and recognize that
I am the Lord and Saviour and Redeemer of the world. I am with you at all times,
at every moment, to assist you in your victory over the forces of darkness.

The Light of the Father in Heaven shall manifest over the entire Earth during
this period of time, and the intensity of the Father?s Light and Love will
increase as you and the followers continue to pray, and to meditate, and to
worship God the Father, and His Son as Saviour and Redeemer. You will have all
of the tools from the spiritual realms that are necessary to wage this battle
against the materialistic forces of evil.

Are you prepared to join me now in saving the world from the dark forces? Then
you must begin to recognize the signs of the dark forces, who are attempting to
implement this new world order that is contrary to God?s plans for you. You must
refuse to follow their plans to increase their influence and control over
humanity. Through discernment and the calling upon of the Holy Spirit, you will
be able to choose what is good in the world from what is bad, particularly as it
refers to the dark plans to remove you from the freedoms as citizens of the
world to which you are entitled. For no man can joust with the plan of God for
you, my brothers and sisters, and the enemies of the Father shall be defeated in
the end.

When that time comes, a New Jerusalem will come upon the land and the seas, and
an Era of Peace will settle upon the Earth. I call upon all of you as powerful
and prayerful warriors to assist in ushering in the Era of Peace.

Join with me now in prayer to discern your role in bringing the plans of the
Father to fruition.

Jesus The Redeemer
End: 9:45

NED'S COMMNTARY - A MUST READ! May 3, 2008

I received the following future vision during my near-death experience on July 2, 1984. The excerpt is from my book, Fast Lane to Heaven, published in March 2001:


Shadowy and publicly unknown world figures will attempt to establish a new world order by creating a worldwide government supposedly for the benefit of humanity. As a group, they will attempt to reorganize the world?s financial and banking institutions in a manner that will permit these unelected leaders to manipulate and control the future of the world for their own personal benefit and gain.

Their own personal greed and lust for material wealth and power will motivate them. They will attempt to create a secular and materialistic world devoid of individual freedoms.


I received the first in-a-series of continuing monthly messages by interior
locution from St. Michael The Archangel on August 1, 2005, and the message was addressed specifically to the People of the United States of America:

The time has come for your nation to make a stand. You are now at the crossroads of the new millennium. The decisions you make as a nation and as a people will determine the fate of humanity from this time forward. You have allowed your government to become corrupted by the materialism and greed of the world. The time is now to reverse this tide.

Around the world there are peoples who are being ravaged by hunger and sickness and disease. Yet, you stand by as a nation and do little or nothing. You devote your resources only to the conflicts that will result in the fortunes of war for your own selfish war profiteers. They see no profit in feeding the hungry so they do not help them. They only help themselves.

These profiteers of war are pillaging your country and destroying your ideals for their own personal reasons. They are the power brokers of the world who are attempting to manipulate and control others for their own personal profit. They must be stopped and you as a people have the power through prayer to stop them.

Your nation cannot continue on the path that it is going. If you do not reverse the trend, you will be destroyed like all major civilizations of the past to be covered over by the waters or reduced to ashes and dust through time.

- St. Michael The Archangel

YOUR EMAIL PARTICIPATION & RESPONSE IS REQUESTED!

I am planning extensive commentaries on the New World Order to be published in our quarterly newsletter On Angels Wings; by email; and on our website www.missionofangels.org in the next several months. However, I would like to hear from you by email ASAP with your comments about the New World Order and with any questions or comments that you would like me to address in these commentaries.

My concern is that many observers are either not aware of the existence of the New World Order or that they are still under the illusion that the New World Order does not exist. In these commentaries, I will be naming the individuals, organizations, and institutions that are part of an international cartel of power brokers who are now in their final stages of implementing a new world order and one world government.

Collectively, these individuals and entities own and/or control global banking, finance, and insurance companies; the global energy resources, particularly the big oil companies; the global health industry, particularly the big pharmaceutical companies; the military and industrial complex that produces ammunition and war machines; the global agricultural industry; the global media conglomerates which include every major TV network in the United States; major newspapers, magazines, and publishing companies; and much more.

From behind the scenes, they control the United Nations, and many of the
governments of many nations, including most of the nationally elected and
appointed officials of the United States. Also in the United States, both the
Republican and Democratic parties and all three of the remaining U.S
presidential candidates are under their direction and control.

The intent and purpose of these commentaries will be to provide extensive
information for you to recognize that the New World Order does exist and as the
messages warn us that We the people have the power to stop them through the
power of prayer!

If you would like to participate in exposing the New World Order, challenge its existence, or want to know more, please send me your comments and questions by email to:

IMPORTANT! In the SUBJECT line, insert: YourName/City/State/Country.
Example: JohnSmith/Albany/NY/USA. Include forward slashes. No spaces.

Although I read all incoming emails, I regret that I can no longer respond to every email request due to the high volume of emails received. However, if you do not hear from me directly, I will try to respond indirectly in the future commentaries to your questions, comments, and concerns. Please know that your responses are appreciated and my prayers are with you!
