BLACK SAINTS OF THE DAY

 


Alexander of Gaza, Romulus (subdeacon) of Diopolis, Paesis (Pausis), Alexander of Kemet, Agapius, and Dionysius— beheaded after declaring their Christianity. (In Palestine) 24 March 303 A.D.


Alexander, Deacon Possibly a duplicate name, but a deacon in Alexandria, Kemet (Africa), who agreed to the deposition at Alexandria in 321A.D.in a synod of more than one hundred African Kemetian (Egyptian) and Libyan bishops of Heretic priest Arius and his wicked, irreverent henchmen. (One of the holy folk).


ALEXANDER, CONFESSOR, PATRIARCH OF ALEXANDRIA


I am St Alexander. I followed Achillas in the see (church headquarters) of Alexandria in 313 A.D..


I cared for the poor, in my mild mannered way. In administrative positions, I somewhat favored monks who had lived in solitude for Church positions.


Sadly during my administration, the Alexandrian priest Arius joined Meletius, Bishop of Lycopolis. Meletius broke away from Peter, the Alexandrian patriarch in 300 A.D.. But Meletius returned to the faith.


Patriarch Peter took Meletius back, after he repented. And ordained Arius deacon. Arius returned to his usurper ways, causing problems in working for the Meletians.


Peter excommunicated Arius. But Achillas took him back after he repented. Then made him a priest, curator of a church in the Baucales region of Alexandria.


Arius denied Yeshua as God. Father Athanasius told us that Arius claimed Yeshua other than his created divinity, or spiritual substance, was made before the world:


Colluthus, a curator of Alexandria with others attacked the blasphemies of Arius and his followers (called Arians). Folks called Catholics, Colluthians.


I tried to gently persuade Arius back to truth.


Colluthus was not pleased with my lenient behavior of Arius. He precipitated. But soon he returned to the fold of Holy Mother Church.


Learning that the followers of Arius were increasing, I called Arius before the clergy as a group. His rantings were intolerable. I excommunicated him around the latter part of 320 A.D..


A group of 100 or more bishops agreed with me in a council at Alexandria. The synod condemned him and his followers, calling anathema condemned by the synod.


I wrote to Pope Sylvester about the problems Arius was causing. Even Emperor Constantine intervened to inquire about the matters.


I sat in on the First Council of Nicea in 325 A.D. 26 Feb. I went home to Yeshua’s judgment, 326 A.D.


I brought Athanasius to the meetings which discussed Arius, who was exiled. I died 26 Feb. 326 A.D. Athanasius succeeded me.


Alexander the Bishop, Heraclius, Anna, Elizabeth, Theodota and Glyceria, at Adrianopolis (2nd or 3rd. century), martyr. 22 Oct.


Alexander and 40 Others, Martyrs beheaded at Carthage (3rd century), April 10.


Alexander of Kemet, Paesis (Pausis), Romulus (subdeacon) of Diopolis, Paesis (Pausis), Alexander of Kemet, another Alexander of Gaza, Agapius, and Dionysius— beheaded after declaring our Christianity. (In Palestine) 24 March 303 A.D.


Alexander, Paulus, Solutor, Theodulus, Theohilus, Octavius, Petronius, and Manilus. Martyrs at Carthage, 15 March


Alexander the Soldier of Kemet (Egypt), martyr July 9 converted and martyred with Patermuthius (Petarpemotis), Copres, and Alexander.


I, Patermuthius, was a 75 years old, Kemetian hermit. I was originally a robber. My follower and converter, the monk Copres (Copri) and I were arraigned by Julian the Apostate. Torture weakened Copri. We were thrown into the furnace. 4th century, 9 July, 17 Dec.


Alexander, Cronion, Julian, Macarius, and 13 companions at Alexandria, Martyrs. 30 Oct.


Alexander, Secundianus, Quartus, Victorianus, Januarius, Medianus, Adauctus, Denecutia, Maximianus, Proculus, Afranus, Audactus, and Deodatus. Martyrs in Africa. 14 May.


Alexander, martyr, Tribune of Theban Legion


Alexander, Romulus, Acutus, Pinnarius, Marulus, Successus, Misias, Matutina, Donatus, Successa, Solutor, and Saturninus. We were martyred in Africa, 27 March.


Alexandra of Alexandria, Bishop, martyred in 311 A.D. I attacked some of Origen’s principles, according to Leontius of Byzantium and Roman Emperor Justinian. 3 March.


ALEXANDER, In Alexandria, Kemet about 250 A.D. I suffered martyrdom during the terror and persecutions of Decius. 12 Dec.


Alexandra, I am a maidservant and hermitess. For 10 years, I lived in a tomb with food and drink delivered to me by one kind woman. In penance, I wished to see no one, as a man previously had been lustful because of God’s visage gift to me.


Spinning flax, I prayed from early morning, until hour nine. I spun flax, meditating on the lives, teachings, and examples of the apostles, martyrs, patriarchs, and prophets.


Melania the Elder used to visit me, but I did not see her. We only spoke. I died in my sleep. 15 Sept.


Alexandria Martyrs 261 A.D. 356 A.D. 390 A.D. 342 A.D.


Alexandrian Martyrs martyred in the Church of Theonas, Alexandria. We died in 372 A.D. Tradition says we were of both sexes who were killed or exiled from Alexandria during Athansius’ exile (the fifth time) by Emperor Valens the Arian. 13 May.


Alexandria, see Great Martyr Catherine,

"Marriage is of very great importance"


Thursday, August 28, 2008


Dear Friends,


“Some Pharisees approached Jesus, and tested him, saying, ‘Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any cause whatever?’ He said in reply, ‘Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator made them male and female and said, for this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh?’


So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, no man can separate.” Matthew 19: 3 – 6


We had a very beautiful day yesterday with sunshine the whole day and no clouds in the sky. It was cool in the morning but the temperature was great in the afternoon. It is very sunny this morning just like yesterday.


I celebrated Holy Mass yesterday morning at 9:30 a.m. in the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island. In the evening I was at the Immaculate Conception Church, Palmer Road, for the prayer meeting. It started at 8:00 p.m. and ended at 9:00 p.m. A good group turned up and I am sure that all were filled with the power of the Holy Spirit.


Today I will celebrate Holy Mass at 7:00 p.m. in the little shrine and some visitors from away will be present. There will be a Healing Mass here on Friday, September 6, at 7:30 p.m. and at 7:00 p.m. we will have the rosary. Everyone is welcome.


Here is another message of Our Lord to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him saying, “Marriage is of great importance to God. He created the first two human beings male and female and gave them a commandment: ‘Multiply and fill the earth.’ It is in the context of marriage that children are to be born.


They need a stable home with a father and a mother. This is why marriage is between one man and one woman and it is to last until death. I came and lived with you to teach you the truth so that you could be saved.


I did teach about marriage and today it is a sacrament instituted by Me. For Christians, marriage is sacred and all My followers are to receive this sacrament before they live together as husband and wife.


It is a fact that governments and society are destroying marriage by all the nonsense they have started. Society says that there is nothing wrong if men and women live together without marriage. Governments have legalized homosexual unions, which goes directly against marriage.


They allow divorce even though the Father has forbidden it. No wonder with all this going on around you that nearly fifty percent of marriages do not last. Divorce is the cause of much pain and suffering in the world today.


Marriage is of very great importance in My eyes. It is important for those who are married to work hard together with Me to make their marriage work. You need to pray together so I may come and live with you in your home.


You need to sit together often and discuss your problems and difficulties in a reasonable way. Call on Me and I will help you. I want all of you to have a happy marriage with children.”


Father Melvin

Jesus Asks Us To Trust In Him


Today I spent time alone with Jesus saying a rosary for all those with special needs and intentions. I made small offerings to Jesus and Mary and prayed


Speak Lord (if it be His will), Your servant listens.


Once again Jesus showed me a Market place that way filled with people shoulder to shoulder. Each scurrying about in search of food, money, some comfort and security.


Jesus spoke saying; Eileen My child, I tell you truly, Those who come to Me in trust with their burdens will have all their needs taken care of. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters.


Message from JESUS to littlest of servants August 27, 2008


Many wonder about my Church and the problems that lie within her. I tell you that the problems that exist are due to MY priests, bishops, and cardinals. Many have left ME.


JESUS SOVEREIGN KING


JESUS wants all to read John 12:43 to understand.

MY DEAR DEAR PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILDREN,


IT IS UPON YOU DEAR CHILDREN, THAT TIME WHEN YOU ARE ASKED TO FINALIZE YOUR PREPARATION AND MAKE READY FOR JESUS. YOU WILL BE IN AWE OF ALL THAT AWAITS YOU AND YOU WILL RECALL MY URGINGS.

DEAR CHILDREN, AS WE PRAY THIS NIGHT, I CALL YOU INTO THE REFUGE OF MY HEART. I AM FOR ALL TIMES AND I AM FOR YOU NOW. LISTEN ALWAYS CAREFULLY, THAT WHAT I REVEAL TO YOU WILL BRING YOU AWARE AND READY FOR JESUS' ACT OF DIVINE MERCY. MAKE NO CONCESSIONS IN THE TRUTH. BE HONORED IF YOU ARE RIDICULED FOR IT IS ALL FOR JESUS' SAKE.


MY CHILDREN, YOU ARE MINE. I CARE FOR YOU WITH DEEP LOVE AND SIMPLICITY - THE SIMPLICITY OF YOUR MOTHER. YOU TOO ARE SIMPLE SOULS.


WITH A DEEP LOVE AND SIMPLE HEART DO I GIVE YOUR BLESSING, AND I DO THIS IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.


THE BLESSING OF CHRIST FALLS UPON YOU AS YOU PRAISE AND THANK GOD NOW AND FOREVER.


Aug 28 St. Augustine


Saint Augustine


Lord,
renew in your Church
the spirit you gave
Saint Augustine.
Filled with this spirit,
may we thirst for you alone
as the fountain of wisdom
and seek you as the source
of eternal love.


We ask this through
our Lord Jesus Christ,
your Son,
who lives and reigns
with you
and the Holy Spirit,
one God,
for ever and ever.


Amen.


Bishop of Hippo (North Africa) from 395 and Doctor of the Church, St. Augustine lived 354-430. No other single theologian has exercised as decisive an influence on the shape and character of Western theology, both Catholic and Protestant, as Augustine. (Encylopedia of Catholicism - HarperCollins)


Prayers of St. Augustine with beautiful pictures


www.geocities.com/ritapaz/saintaugustineprayers.html


St. Augustine was born in Africa in 354. His young adulthood was a stormy period, including fathering a child out of wedlock. In his twenties he moved to Milan, Italy, where he became a professor of rhetoric, but his personal life continued to be stormy and wayward.


While in Milan, two things happened to him. First, he became increasingly unhappy with his personal life, and second, he became attracted to Christianity. It was in this frame of mind that he sat down one day and began to ponder his life. Suddenly he broke into tears and began to cry out to God: "And you, Lord! How long will you be angry with me? Forever?


Why not at this very hour put an end to my life?" Augustine said later: I was crying out like this when, suddenly, I heard the voice of a child. It seemed to say, "Take and read! Take and read!" I stood up, for now the voice seemed like a command to read the Bible. I got a Bible and opened it, and the first words my eyes fell upon were from the letter of Paul to the Romans.


They read: "Throw off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light; let us conduct ourselves properly as in the day, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in rivalry and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh" (Rom 13:12-14).


When Augustine read this, he stopped. There was not need to go on. He says: "My heart was suddenly flooded with a light that erased all my doubts. And my soul was filled with a deep peace."


Application:


Today, as Our Lady asks, pray for the strength to continue your ongoing conversion.


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 Christians. 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.


Meditations by Padre Pio - Padre Pio's Prayer After Holy Communion


Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You.
Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength, that I may not fall so often.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life and without You I am without fervor.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light and without You I am in darkness.
Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.
Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.
Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You very much and always be in Your company.
Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.
Stay with me, Lord, as poor as my soul is I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of Love.
Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close and life passes, death, judgment and eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strength, so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You. It is getting late and death approaches, I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows. O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile!
Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers, I need You. Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.
Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You, if not by Communion, at least by grace and love.
Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love,Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more. With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen.

The Prayer of Our Lady of All Nations to be prayed before the Cross: PROPHECY TODAY


"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Father, send now Your Spirit over the earth. Let the Holy Spirit live in the hearts of all nations, that they may be preserved from degeneration, disaster and war. May the Lady of All Nations, who once was Mary, be our Advocate. Amen." PROPHECY TODAY


This Time Is Our Time PROPHECY TODAY


The following are excerpts of messages given to Ida Peerderman of Amsterdam from Our Lady of All Nations during the 1950's, only: PROPHECY TODAY


"I have said: this time is Our time. By this I mean the following: the world is caught up in degeneration and superficiality; it does not know which direction to turn. That is why the Father is sending me to be the Advocate, so that the Holy Spirit will come.


For the world is not saved by force, the world will be saved by the Spirit. For it is nothing other than ideas which rule the world. Very well then, Church of Rome, know your task. Bring your ideas, bring Christ anew." (#32 April 29, 1951)


"I have said: this time is Our time. This means that the Father and the Son wants to send the Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate throughout the whole world in this time." (#34 July 2, 1951)


"I was already Coredemptrix at the Annunciation."


"This means: the Mother was made Coredemptrix by the will of the Father."


"The new and final dogma of Marian history will be the dogma of the Coredemptrix and Mediatrix As Advocate" (#37 & 38 1951)


"The Lady of All Nations hereby promises that those who ask will be heard according to the will of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. This prayer has been given for the redemption of the world. This prayer has been given for the conversion of the world. Pray this prayer in all that you do. This prayer shall be spread in churches and by modern means.


The people of this world shall learn to invoke the Lady of All Nations, who once was Mary, as their Advocate, that the world may be delivered from degeneration, disaster and war. Tell this to your theologians. This time is Our time. Come before this image and pray." (#38 December 31, 1951)


"The Lady of All Nations will stand above the community. Let everyone ask using this simple prayer, and the Lady will help them according to the will of the Father and the Son. She was Mary, the Handmaid of the Lord. She now wishes to be the Lady of All Nations. No matter who or what you are, come to the Lady of All Nations."


"I warn the Christian people and say: realize the seriousness of this time. Join hands. Plant the Cross in the midst of the world. You are all responsible for your task which you have to accomplish in this time.


Do not let yourselves be led to the wrong spirit. Pray every day that the Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Father, may send the Holy Spirit over this world, and the Lady of All Nations, who once was Mary, will be your Advocate. So be it." (#41 April 6, 1952)


"I implore and ask the Church of Rome: fight in this time with one accord for the one Truth, the Lord and Creator of this world, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. This time is the time of the Holy Spirit.


All of you, ask the Holy Spirit to bring the True Spirit over the world. The world is degenerating. The great ones of this world strive for power. The great ones of this world think only in materialistic terms. People are being scattered and misled."


Now the Lady points at the globe. I see confusion and unrest among the peoples. The Lady says, "Just look over all these countries. Nowhere unity, nowhere peace, nowhere tranquility for the peoples.


Everywhere tension, everywhere anxiety. The Lord Jesus Christ allows this. His time will come. Beforehand there will be a time of unrest. Humanism, paganism, atheists, snakes - beforehand they will try to rule this world." (#42 June 15, 1952)


I then see the world with all those groups of people on it, and, so to speak, an enormous hand clasping it. The Lady says, "Listen to the Lady, who wants to be your Mother. Pray, nations, that your sacrifice may find favor with the Lord. Pray, nations, that the true Holy Spirit may come. Pray, nations, that the Lady of All Nations may be your Advocate."


Then the Lady says very slowly and clearly, "And now the Lady of All Nations promises to grant true peace. But the nations, together with the Church - understand well - together with the Church, will have to pray my prayer in this year. Tell this to the Sacrista. Say that the time has now come. Great world events are still to come."


The Lady says the latter with emphasis. "Your spiritual director shall see to it. Do not be afraid. It is Mary, the Lady of All Nations, who is bringing this message."


The Lady pauses again for a moment. Then she says clearly and slowly, "Under this title she will save the world." (#45 March 20, 1945)


The Lady is standing before me. She says, "I have come today to bring a special message. Ask the Holy Father to pray the prayer - which Mary as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate, under the title 'The Lady of All Nations', has given to the world - and to lead the nations in praying it."


"Tell him: apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ, teach your peoples this simple yet profound prayer. It is Mary, the Lady of All Nations, who asks this of you. You are the shepherd of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.


Tend your sheep. Know well, great threats are hanging over the Church, are hanging over the world. Now the moment has come for you to speak of Mary as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate, under the title 'The Lady of All Nations'. Why is Mary asking this of you?


Because she has been sent by her Lord and Creator so that, under this title and through this prayer, she may deliver the world from a great world catastrophe. You know that Mary wishes to come as the Lady of All Nations. She is now asking that the people may hear this title from you, the Holy Father."


"The Pope's Sacrista shall give this message, as the other ones, to the Holy Father. Through this prayer the Lady will save the world. I repeat this promise once more." (#46 May 10, 1953)


"The Lady of All Nations will be allowed to bring peace to the world. Yet she must be asked for it under this title. The Lady of All Nations will assist the Church of Rome. The Church of Rome, the community, shall invoke Mary, the Mother of the Lord Jesus Christ, under this new title, 'The Lady of All Nations'.


They shall pray my prayer against degeneration, disaster and war, and bring it among all nations. I shall help the Church of Rome, the community. The nations shall invoke me under this title."


The Lady says this with great emphasis. Now the Lady raises her forefinger as if in warning and says, "Holy Father [Pope Pius XII], you have a great task to accomplish before you are taken up among Us.


The Lady tells you once again: carry through with the plans that you have worked out. See to the final dogma, the crowning of the Mother of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate. In 54 you are to bring this new title among the nations." (#47 October 11, 1953)


Now the Lady pauses for a moment, gazing before herself. Then I feel something terribly horrid coming around the Lady. She says, "The powers of hell will break loose."


Next it is as if I heard thunder and terrible noise about her. But then the Lady smiles and says, "They will not, however, defeat the Lady of All Nations." (#48 December 3, 1953)


"Because Mary is Coredemptrix, she is also Mediatrix, she is also Advocate. Not only because she is the Mother of the Lord Jesus Christ, but - and mark this well - because she is the Immaculate Conception."


"It is the crowning of your Lady."


"This dogma must come as a keystone of Marian thought. Tell the theologians that the Lady of All Nations wants to see this fulfilled." (49 April 4, 1954)


"The Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate is now standing before you. I have chosen this day - on this day [ May 31 ] the Lady will be crowned."


"On this date the Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate will receive her official title as 'The Lady of All Nations.' Mark well, these three thoughts in one act. These three."


Now, all of a sudden, it is as if I were standing with the Lady above the dome of a big church. As we enter, I hear the Lady say, "I am taking you there. Relate what I let you see and hear."


We are now in a very big church, in St. Peter's. I see lots of cardinals and bishops gathered there. Then the Pope enters. It is a Pope I do not know. He is being carried in a kind of chair, but later he continues on foot. People cheer; the choir begins to sing. Now the Holy Father is announcing something in a language I do not understand, while holding up two fingers.


All at once the Lady stands on the globe again. She smiles and says, "Child, thus have I let you see what is the will of the Lord Jesus Christ. This day will become the coronation of His Mother, the Lady of All Nations, who once was Mary."


"The Lady of All Nations wishes for unity in the true Holy Spirit. The world is covered by a false spirit, by Satan. Once the dogma, the final dogma in Marian history, has been proclaimed, the Lady of All Nations will grant peace, true peace, to the world.


The nations, however, must pray my prayer, together with the Church. They shall know that the Lady of All Nations has come as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate. So be it." (#50 May 31, 1954)


"Satan is not yet expelled. The Lady of All Nations may now come in order to expel Satan. She comes to announce the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will then come over this earth. You, however, shall pray my prayer which I gave to the world. Every day and every moment you shall think of the prayer which the Lady of All Nations gave to this world in this time. How strongly Satan is ruling, God alone knows.


He now sends His Mother, the Lady of All Nations, to you, to all nations. She will defeat Satan, as has been foretold. She will place her feet upon Satan's head."


"You will go through a great deal yet, in this century. You, nations of this time, know that you are under the protection of the Lady of All Nations. Invoke her as Advocate; ask her to stave off all disasters. Ask her to banish degeneration from this world. From degeneration comes disaster.


From degeneration comes war. Through my prayer you shall ask that this be staved off from the world. You do not know how great and how important this prayer is before God. He will hear His Mother, as she wants to be your Advocate."


"Great events are going to happen…There will be alarming inventions, such that even your shepherds will be astonished and say: we are at a loss"


"Understand, the Holy Spirit is nearer than ever. The Holy Spirit will only come when you pray for it. From the beginning, He already was. Now, however, the time has come."


"The world no longer knows where to turn. Very well then, peoples, trust in your Mother, for she has never forsaken her children. She may come under this new title: Coredemptrix, Mediatrix, Advocate."


"Once you begin to ask the Holy Father for the dogma, the Lady will fulfill her promise, and true peace will come. True peace, nations - that is the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God is nearer than ever. Understand these words well. It is really and truly the Mother, the Lady of All Nations, who is telling you this.


My admonitions: do not listen to false prophets; listen only to your shepherds, to your ministers, to the voice of your conscience - to a Higher Being. And this I say for those who do not belong to the true Church."


"I just said: alarming inventions will be made. God allows this; but you peoples, you can see to it that it does not result in disaster. You peoples, I beg you...the Lady begs you; hear this well. Never has the Mother of God begged you "


Now the Lady pauses again and then says, "So that you do not arrive at alarming things, nations, the Lady begs you now, today: ask the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit to protect His people, to bring His people to unity once again.


People have to attain unity, to be one, and over them: the Lady of All Nations. One community, peoples; here I am stressing these words: one community."


"I said: I will give consolation. Nations, your Mother knows life, your Mother knows sorrow, your Mother knows the Cross. Everything you go through in this life is a passage that your Mother, the Lady of All Nations, went before you. She went this road before you."


The Lady pauses again for a moment and then says slowly, "But she went up to the Father; she returned to her Son. Nations, you also go up to the Father by your way of the Cross; you also go up to the Son by your way of the Cross.


The Holy Spirit will help you. Invoke Him in this time. I cannot say this enough to the world: go to the Holy Spirit in this time!"


The Lady says the latter very slowly and with emphasis. "Your Mother will tell you something consoling. When the time of the Lord Jesus Christ is at hand, you will notice that false prophets, war, discord, dissension are going to disappear. Now the time is dawning. The Lady of All Nations is telling you this." (#51 May 31, 1955)


"The dogma of Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate has to be proclaimed before 1960." (#52 may 31, 1956)


"If they do what I have said, I will assist the peoples, all of them, even the most primitive, and I will be allowed to bring true peace." (#53 May 31, 1957)


"This Holy Father, Pope Pius XII, will be taken up among Us at the beginning of October of this year. The Lady of All Nations, the Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate, will lead him to eternal joy."


[This prediction came true, as Pope Pius XII died on October 9, 1958.] (#54 February 19, 1958)


"Warn the clergy of false doctrines, particularly concerning the Eucharist." (#55 May 31, 1958)


Commentary (From the Era of Peace site, fair use religious and educational purposes for those in the African Diaspora who would not ordinarily be exposed to such0.


It is clear from the excerpts above, that it is vitally important that Our Holy Father declare the proposed 5th and Final Marian Dogma as Mary, Coredemptix, Mediatrix, and Advocate. We have been told by other prophecies yet-to-be-approved that with the declaration of this dogma, Our Lady will be granted her full power from Our Heavenly Father to crush the head of Satan (Gen. 3:15).


But what can we do?


We should pray the prayer of Our Lady of All Nations above routinely, and help to proliferate both the use of the prayer and the devotion to Our Lady of All Nations. Additionally, we should pray that the Holy Father will declare the 5th dogma soon. Also, we should teach others the meaning of the 5th dogma, for as we have been told, when it is declared, there will be much confusion resulting in a major Schism within the Church.


We can advance also to the web site of Vox Populi Mariae Mediatrici and sign the petition encouraging the Holy Father to declare the 5th dogma. The petition is located at: http://www.voxpopuli.org


Please act now to help Our Lady of All Nations in this effort, by spreading this somewhat overlooked devotion.


This Time Is Our Time


The apparitions of Our Lady of All Nations to Ida Peederman are currently under investigation by the Church. However, various levels of ecclesiastical approval have been rendered including: Approval of the prayer, Approval of the Image of Our Lady of All Nations, and Approval of veneration of Our Lady under the Title of Our Lady of All Nations, and others.


For additional information of the various levels of approval refer to "Church Documents" at the following URL: http://www.laudate.org/en/documents/church_documents.htm

Prophecy of St Malachy


In the book, "The Year of Three Popes" by Peter Hebblethwaite (about the events of 1978 which saw the death of Paul VI, the election and death of John Paul I, and then the election of John Paul II) he mentions the spate of editorials in the Osservatore Romano and the spate of letters to the editor in the Times of London at the time of the conclaves about what the mottoes attributed to the dead pope or the next pope by St Malachy in his prophecies might mean.


A library trip and look through the microfilm of the Times to read the letters…have caused the prophecies to be reproduced below, as well as an explanation of them from the Catholic Encyclopedia(1913).


The prevailing view today is that they are elaborate forgeries, probably perpretrated by a school of Jesuits in the 1600s. This is based on the clear relation of the mottos to the various popes until that period, and the need to find oblique references (such as the motto of the Pope's home diocese) to make the particular motto fit the particular pope. The inclusion of anti-popes would also appear to militate against the authenticity of the prophecies.


Nevertheless, as each new conclave comes and goes, people start to become a bit jittery about them (since the list runs out soon!).


Apparently, in 1958, before the Conclave that would elect Pope John XXIII, Cardinal Spellman of New York hired a boat, filled it with sheep and sailed up and down the Tiber River, to show that he was "pastor et nautor", the motto attibuted to the next Pope in the prophecies!


I think they are a bit of fun, and the semantic exercise of trying to fit the motto to the Pope that goes on in letters to the editor around the world is great reading!


According to the prophecy, the current Pope may be the second last Pope Gloria Oliv� ("Glory of the Olives").


However, it should be noted that some commentators over the centuries have pointed out that there is nothing that says there will be no popes between Gloria Olivæ and Petrus Romanus. It may be that there will be a long line of popes between them!


(From the Catholic Encyclopedia 1913 edition)


The most famous and best known prophecies about the popes are those attributed to St. Malachy. In 1139 he went to Rome to give an account of the affairs of his diocese to the pope, Innocent II, who promised him two palliums for the metropolitan Sees of Armagh and Cashel.


While at Rome, he received (according to the Abb� Cucherat) the strange vision of the future wherein was unfolded before his mind the long list of illustrious pontiffs who were to rule the Church until the end of time.


The same author tells us that St. Malachy gave his manuscript to Innocent II to console him in the midst of his tribulations, and that the document remained unknown in the Roman Archives until its discovery in 1590 (Cucherat, "Proph. de la succession des papes", ch. xv).


They were first published by Arnold de Wyon, and ever since there has been much discussion as to whether they are genuine predictions of St. Malachy or forgeries. The silence of 400 years on the part of so many learned authors who had written about the popes, and the silence of St. Bernard especially, who wrote the "Life of St. Malachy", is a strong argument against their authenticity, but it is not conclusive if we adopt Cucherat's theory that they were hidden in the Archives during those 400 years.


These short prophetical announcements, in number 112, indicate some noticeable trait of all future popes from Celestine II, who was elected in the year 1130, until the end of the world. They are enunciated under mystical titles.


Those who have undertaken to interpret and explain these symbolical prophecies have succeeded in discovering some trait, allusion, point, or similitude in their application to the individual popes, either as to their country, their name, their coat of arms or insignia, their birth-place, their talent or learning, the title of their cardinalate, the dignities which they held etc.


For example, the prophecy concerning Urban VIII is Lilium et Rosa (the lily and the rose); he was a native of Florence and on the arms of Florence figured a fleur-de-lis; he had three bees emblazoned on his escutcheon, and the bees gather honey from the lilies and roses.


Again, the name accords often with some remarkable and rare circumstance in the pope's career; thus Peregrinus apostolicus (pilgrim pope), which designates Pius VI, appears to be verified by his journey when pope into Germany, by his long career as pope, and by his expatriation from Rome at the end of his pontificate.


Those who have lived and followed the course of events in an intelligent manner during the pontificates of Pius IX, Leo XIII, and Pius X cannot fail to be impressed with the titles given to each by the prophecies of St. Malachy and their wonderful appropriateness:


Crux de Cruce (Cross from a Cross) Pius IX; Lumen in c�lo (Light in the Sky) Leo XIII; Ignis ardens (Burning Fire) Pius X. There is something more than coincidence in the designations given to these three popes so many hundred years before their time.


We need not have recourse either to the family names, armorial bearings or cardinalatial titles, to see the fitness of their designations as given in the prophecies. The afflictions and crosses of Pius IX were more than fell to the lot of his predecessors; and the more aggravating of these crosses were brought on by the House of Savoy whose emblem was a cross. Leo XIII was a veritable luminary of the papacy. The present pope is truly a burning fire of zeal for the restoration of all things to Christ.


The last of these prophecies concerns the end of the world and is as follows: "In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Peter the Roman, who will feed his flock amid many tribulations, after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people. The End."


It has been noticed concerning Petrus Romanus, who according to St. Malachy's list is to be the last pope, that the prophecy does not say that no popes will intervene between him and his predecessor designated Gloria oliv


. It merely says that he is to be the last, so that we may suppose as many popes as we please before "Peter the Roman". Cornelius a Lapide refers to this prophecy in his commentary "On the Gospel of St. John" (C. xvi) and "On the Apocalypse" (cc. xvii-xx), and he endeavours to calculate according to it the remaining years of time.


Notes


Note: The Pope numbers given are from a previous work, and do not accord with the official counting of the Vatican. Our current pontiff, Pope Benedict XVI is the 265th Pope. I am unable to explain this discrepancy.


Note: The commentaries below are only brief and selective. A commentary on every motto is given in Peter Bander's book: The Prophecies of St Malachy.

(1655-1667) 83 Montium custos 240 Clement IX (1667-1669) 84 Sydus Olorum (constellation of swans) Hist.: upon his election, he was apparently the occupant of the Chamber of Swans in the Vatican. 241

to his election he was member of an order founded by Saint Romuald, at Balneo, in Etruria, present day Toscany. 257 Pius IX (1846-1878) 101 Crux de cruce (Cross of Crosses) Hist.:Pius XI was the last Pope to reign over the Papal States (the middle third of what is today Italy). He ended up being a prisoner of the Vatican, never venturing outside Vatican City. A much heavier burden than his predecessors. 258 Leo XIII (1878-1903) 102 Lumen in c�lo(Light in the Heavens) Hist.: Leo XIII wrote encyclicals on Catholic social teaching that were still being digested 100 years later. He added considerably to theology. 259 St. Pius X (1903-1914) 103 Ignis ardens (ardent fire) Hist.: The Pope had great personal piety and achieved a number of important reforms in the devotional and liturgical life of priests and laypeople. 260 Benedict XV (1914-1922) 104 Religio depopulata (Religion laid waste) Hist.: This Pope reigned during the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia which store the establishment of Communism. 261 Pius XI (1922-1939) 105 Fides intrepida (Intrepid faith) Hist.: This Pope stood up to Fascist and Communist forces lining up against him in the lead up to World War II. 262 Pius XII (1939-1958) 106 Pastor angelicus (Angelic Shepherd) Hist.: This Pope was very mystical, and is believed to have received visions. People would kneel when they received telephone calls from him. His encyclicals add enormously to the understanding of Catholic beliefs (even if they are now overlooked because of focus on the Second Vatican Council, which occurred so soon after his reign). 263 John XXIII (1958-1963) 107 Pastor et Nauta (pastor and marine) Hist.: prior to his election he was patriarch of Venice, a marine city, home of the gondolas 264 Paul VI (1963-1978) 108 Flos florum (flower of flowers) Hist.: his arms displayed three lilies. 265 John Paul I (1978) 109 De medietate Lun� (of the half of the moon) Hist.: Albino Luciani, born in Canale d'Agardo, diocese of Belluno, (beautiful moon) Elected pope on August 26, his reign lasted about a month, from half a moon to the next half... 266 John Paul II (1978-2005) 110 De labore Solis (of the eclipse of the sun, or from the labour of the sun) Hist.: Karol Wojtyla was born on May 18, 1920 during a solar eclipse. He also comes from behind the former Iron Curtain (the East, where the Sun rises). He might also be seen to be the fruit of the intercession of the Woman Clothed with the Sun labouring in Revelation 12 (because of his devotion to the Virgin Mary). His Funeral occurred on 8 April, 2005 when there was a solar eclipse visible in the Americas. 267 Benedict XVI (2005-) 111 Gloria oliv� The Benedictine order traditionally said this Pope would come from their order, since a branch of the Benedictine order is called the Olivetans. St Benedict is said to have prophesied that before the end of the world, a member of his order would be Pope and would triumphantly lead the Church in its fight against evil. While the Holy Father chose the name "Benedict", this does not seem enough to fulfil the prophecy. Nor is it clear how Benedict XVI (a Bavarian) is "Glory of the Olives". Since he is said to have remarked in the Conclave after saying he would take the name Benedict that it was partly to honour Benedict XV, a pope of peace and reconciliation, perhaps Benedict XVI will be a peacemaker in the Church or in the World, and thus carry the olive branch. In persecutione extrema S.R.E. sedebit Petrus Romanus, qui pascet oves in multis tribulationibus: quibus transactis civitas septicollis diruetur, & Judex trem�dus judicabit populum suum. Finis. (In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep through many tribulations, at the term of which the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the formidable Judge will judge his people. The End.) >

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 Christians. 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.


Meditations by Padre Pio - Padre Pio's Prayer After Holy Communion


Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You.
Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength, that I may not fall so often.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life and without You I am without fervor.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light and without You I am in darkness.
Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.
Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.
Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You very much and always be in Your company.
Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.
Stay with me, Lord, as poor as my soul is I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of Love.
Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close and life passes, death, judgment and eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strength, so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You. It is getting late and death approaches, I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows. O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile!
Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers, I need You. Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.
Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You, if not by Communion, at least by grace and love.
Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love,Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more. With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen.

"I call you to come to Me now"


Wednesday, August 27, 2008


Dear Friends,


"There was a scholar of the law who stood up to test Jesus and said, 'Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?' Jesus said to him, 'What is written in the law? How do you read it?'


He said in reply, 'You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your being, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.' He replied to him, 'You have answered correctly; do this and you shall live." Luke 10: 25 - 28


We had a cool morning yesterday with plenty of clouds but the sun came out in the afternoon and it was warm. Today we will have a beautiful sunny day with the temperature past 20 degrees Celsius.


Yesterday I had an hour of adoration at our church between 11:00 a.m. and noon. In the afternoon I took our visitor to North Cape to see the many windmills there and we walked along the path near the sea.


Then we went to Tignish Shore to walk along the beautiful beach where some people were sitting and hundreds of birds were grouped together here and there. I celebrated Holy Mass in the evening at 7:00 p.m. in the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island, and I will celebrate Holy Mass at the little shrine this morning at 9:30 a.m.


Our Lord gave a message to Joseph and these are the words Jesus gave him, "Many people ask themselves this question, 'What is the purpose of life? Why are we here in this world with all the suffering, so many people are starving and there are so many sicknesses?'


Those who believe in God will ask like this scholar of the law, 'What must I do to inherit eternal life?' Eternal life here means to be with God in heaven where you will live forever.


Heaven is life after death where there is no longer any suffering or death or starvation and all are filled with joy and happiness being with God and seeing Him forever. There you will never be tired and indeed you will be blessed.


You were born in this world to live in union with God so that after the test you would enjoy the glory of heaven for eternity. In order to reach heaven, you need to love the Lord, Your God. He must be first in your life every day and you must love your neighbor as yourself.


I came into the world to teach you what God expects of you. I called you all to believe in Me with all your heart for I am the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity. I came with one purpose to help you get to heaven. Without My help you cannot achieve the purpose for which you were born.


Throw away all your hesitations, your pride, your fears and the thought concerning what others will think of you, and come and follow Me. Make this leap of faith and become My follower and I will be there to help you. I am always ready to give you all you need, if you will believe in Me and enter My Church and My Kingdom. Do not delay for it might be too late. I call you to come to Me now."

Fr Doucette - "They did not believe" - Tue, Aug 26, 2008


FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE


"They did not believe"


Tuesday, August 26, 2008


Dear Friends,


Jesus came to his native place and taught the people in their synagogue. They were astonished and said, Where did this man get such wisdom and mighty deeds? Is he not the carpenter's son? Is not his mother named Mary and his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? Are not his sisters all with us?


Where did this man get all this? And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor except in his native place and in his own house. And he did not work many mighty deeds there because of their lack of faith. Matthew 13: 54 58


Below is another message received by Joseph from Our Lord. Jesus spoke to him saying, I grew up in Northern Israel in the town of Nazareth. Joseph and My Mother, Mary, had a home there and many people knew Me. I attended the synagogue regularly especially after I was 12 years of age.


After I began My public life I returned at times to My native town and I spoke in the synagogue I attended when I was younger. The people of Nazareth refused to accept Me because I lived there. They believed that I was an imposter showing off with such wisdom and power. They did not believe that I was the Messiah, the Saviour, and that I was the Son of God. I was unable to heal many people because of their unbelief.


Many of those I have chosen to do My work are also rejected by their family and friends. They still see them as one of theirs with whom they went to school and it blocks them to accept that they have the power to do My work.


These are accepted by strangers who can read the signs and accept the message. Because of My rejection in Nazareth, they will understand that I am an example for them. Indeed a prophet is accepted everywhere except in his native place and in his own house. This is a trial, which all have to go through and it brings pain to the one who is treated like this. Without faith it is impossible to do much among these people. Pray that they open their hearts to the people I sent them.

"We do not sin when we adore Christ in the Eucharist; we do sin when we do not adore Christ in the Eucharist." (St. Augustine)


Mother Teresa - Total surrender consists in giving ourselves completely to God. We must give ourselves fully to God because God has given Himself fully to us. If God owes nothing to us and is ready to impart to us no less than Himself, shall we answer with just a fraction of ourselves?


Meditations by Padre Pio - In order to reach our final goal, we must follow our Divine Leader who usually leads chosen Souls by the path He Himself has trodden and by no other; by the path, I tell you, of self-denial and suffering.


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Making truth personal through solitude with God


"Only in solitariness is true spirituality born, when the soul stands naked before its God. In that moment these are the only two realities in the universe. In this discovery is born love of neighbor, for then we love our fellow human beings, not because of what they can do for us, but because we see that they too are real or potential children of God. Though truth is not personal, we make it personal by contemplation. "


We must passionately guard our passions!


"Listening to a political figure give a television report in the nation on a world crisis with somewhat the same passion that he would read off the price of cheese in Switzerland and Burma makes one wonder if there is any fire or enthusiasm left for great causes. Obviously, enthusiasm has something to do with passion.


But that word generally evokes two kinds of extreme and wrong reactions: one view is that passion is something we ought to be ashamed of; the other is that passion is always right, and that if we do not give way to its demands, we hurt our personality. "


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian. org/directory_ flash.html -


This deeper knowledge of God gives me full liberty and spiritual freedom, and nothing can disturb my close union with Him, not even the angelic powers. I feel that I am great when I am united to God. What happiness it is to have the consciousness of God in one's heart and to live in close intimacy with Him. (1135)


In the evening, He gave me to understand how fleeting all earthly things are, and [how] everything that appears great disappears like smoke, and does not give the soul freedom, but weariness.


Happy the soul that understands these things and with only one foot touches the earth. My repose is to be united with You; everything else tires me. Oh, how much I feel I am in exile! I see that no one understands my interior life. You alone understand me, You who are hidden in my heart and yet are eternally alive. (1141)


Today, my soul entered into close union with the Lord. He made known to me how I should always abandon myself to His holy will: In one moment, I can give you more than you are able to desire. (1169) Aug 27 - http://www.catholic -forum.com/ e-pistle. html


Quote of the Day - Son, nothing in this world now affords me delight. I do not know what there is now for me to do or why I am still here, all my hopes in this world being now fulfilled. -St. Monica about the conversion of Augustine


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


- AUGUST 27 - ST. MONICA Today the Blessed Mother speaks of faith as the foundation of our lives:


From the very beginning I have been conveying the messages of God to the world. It is a great pity not to believe it. Faith is essential, but one cannot compel a person to believe. Faith is the foundation from which everything else flows (First Years December 31, 1981).


In his letter to the Hebrews, Paul defines faith:


Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Indeed, by faith our ancestors received approval. By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible (Heb 11:1-3).


Reflection:


Today we honor one of the great women of faith, St. Monica, the patroness of Christian mothers. Born in 331, she married and had children, one of whom was Augustine. She poured forth many tears and prayers for his conversion, which she witnessed in her lifetime.


He later went on to become a priest, bishop, and one of the church's greatest theologians. It is appropriate that our readings today deal with faith, for this was the foundation of Monica's life and her legacy to her children.


Application:


Faith is a gift. Today, pray in thanksgiving for this most precious of gifts, and ask the Lord to deepen it.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 28 - ST. AUGUSTINE


"It seems that, after nineteen centuries of extraordinary glorification, the small Host for which so many cathedrals have sprung up, the small Host that has rested in millions of breasts and that has found a tabernacle and worshippers even in the desert—it seems that the triumphant Host of Lourdes and the Eucharistic Congresses of Chicago and Carthage remains as unknown, as secret as when it appeared for the first time in a room in Jerusalem.


Light is in the world as in the days of St. John the Baptist, and the world does not know it." (Francois Mauriac, Holy Thursday: An Intimate Remembrance)


Mother Teresa - To possess God we must allow Him to possess our souls. How poor we would be if God had not given us the power of giving ourselves to Him; how rich we are now!


Meditations by Padre Pio - Padre Pio's Prayer After Holy Communion


Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You.
Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength, that I may not fall so often.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life and without You I am without fervor.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light and without You I am in darkness.
Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.
Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.
Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You very much and always be in Your company.
Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.
Stay with me, Lord, as poor as my soul is I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of Love.
Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close and life passes, death, judgment and eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strength, so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You. It is getting late and death approaches, I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows. O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile!
Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers, I need You. Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.
Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You, if not by Communion, at least by grace and love.
Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love,Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more. With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
True passion takes guts and courage
"To revive passion in hearts, one must first understand it. Passion signifies receiving or suffering something or submitting to something. From this, follow two indispensable conditions for passion: knowledge, and some organic or physical change in our sensible nature."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


August 1937. After Holy Communion, I saw the Lord Jesus in all His majesty, and He said to me, My daughter, during the weeks when you neither saw Me nor felt My presence, I was more profoundly united to you than at times [when you experienced) ecstasy.


And the faithfulness and fragrance of your prayer have reached Me. After these words, my soul became flooded with God's consolation. I did not see Jesus, and there was only one word I could utter and that was: "Jesus." And after pronouncing that Name, my soul was again filled with light and deeper recollection, which lasted uninterruptedly for three days. However, outwardly I could still carry out my usual duties.


My whole being was stirred to its most secret depths. God's greatness does not frighten me, but makes me happy. By giving Him glory, I myself am lifted up. On seeing His happiness, I myself am made happy, because all that is in Him flows back upon me. (1246)

Quote of the Day - He who faithfully prays to God for the necessaries of this life is both mercifully heard, and mercifully not heard. For the physician knows better than the sick man what is good for the disease. -St. Augustine


Today's Tidbit - Late have I loved Thee, O Lord; and behold, Thou wast within and I without, and there I sought Thee. Thou was with me when I was not with Thee. Thou didst call, and cry, and burst my deafness. Thou didst gleam, and glow, and dispel my blindness. Thou didst touch me, and I burned for Thy peace.


For Thyself Thou hast made us, and restless our hearts until in Thee they find their ease. Late have I loved Thee, Thou Beauty ever old and ever new. Thou hast burst my bonds asunder; unto Thee will I offer up an offering of praise. St. Augustine


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


AUGUST 28 - ST. AUGUSTINE


The following is Our Lady's monthly message for May, 1990:


Dear children, I wish to help you grow in renunciation


and mortification. In this way you will be able to understand the beautiful life of those who especially give themselves to me. Dear children, God blesses you day after day and wishes to change your life. Therefore, pray that you may have the strength to change it (Monthly Message May 25, 1990).


John the Baptist also called the people to change their live by turning from sin:


In those days John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness of Judea, proclaiming, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near"(Mt 3:1-2).


Reflection:


St. Augustine was born in Africa in 354. His young adulthood was a stormy period, including fathering a child out of wedlock. In his twenties he moved to Milan, Italy, where he became a professor of rhetoric, but his personal life continued to be stormy and wayward.


While in Milan, two things happened to him. First, he became increasingly unhappy with his personal life, and second, he became attracted to Christianity. It was in this frame of mind that he sat down one day and began to ponder his life. Suddenly de broke into tears and began to cry out to God: "and you, Lord! How long will you be angry with me? Forever? Why not at this very hour put an end to my life?"Augustine said later:


I was crying out like this when, suddenly, I heard the voice of a child. It seemed to say, "Take and read! Take and read!" I stood up, for now the voice seemed like a command to read the Bible. I got a Bible and opened it, and the first words my eyes fell upon were from the letter of Paul to the Romans.


They read: "Throw off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light; let us conduct ourselves properly as in the day, not in orgies and drunkenness. not in rivalry and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh"(Rom 13:12-14).


When Augustine read this, he stopped. There was not need to go on. He says: "My heart was suddenly flooded with a light that erased all my doubts. And my soul was filled with a deep peace."


Application:


Today, as Our Lady asks, pray for the strength to continue your ongoing conversion

 


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 27 - ST. MONICA


Message of August 25, 2004


"Dear children! I call you all to conversion of heart. Decide, as in the first days of my coming here, for a complete change of your life. In this way, little children, you will have the strength to kneel and to open your hearts before God.V God will hear your prayers and answer them. Before God, I intercede for each of you. Thank you for having responded to my call."


"We do not sin when we adore Christ in the Eucharist; we do sin when we do not adore Christ in the Eucharist." (St. Augustine)

 


Mother Teresa - Total surrender consists in giving ourselves completely to God. We must give ourselves fully to God because God has given Himself fully to us. If God owes nothing to us and is ready to impart to us no less than Himself, shall we answer with just a fraction of ourselves?


Meditations by Padre Pio - In order to reach our final goal, we must follow our Divine Leader who usually leads chosen Souls by the path He Himself has trodden and by no other; by the path, I tell you, of self-denial and suffering.

 


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


Making truth personal through solitude with God "Only in solitariness is true spirituality born, when the soul stands naked before its God. In that moment these are the only two realities in the universe. In this discovery is born love of neighbor, for then we love our fellow human beings, not because of what they can do for us, but because we see that they too are real or potential children of God. Though truth is not personal, we make it personal by contemplation." We must passionately guard our passions!


"Listening to a political figure give a television report in the nation on a world crisis with somewhat the same passion that he would read off the price of cheese in Switzerland and Burma makes one wonder if there is any fire or enthusiasm left for great causes. Obviously, enthusiasm has something to do with passion.


But that word generally evokes two kinds of extreme and wrong reactions: one view is that passion is something we ought to be ashamed of; the other is that passion is always right, and that if we do not give way to its demands, we hurt our personality."

MOTHER MARYAM’S MEDJUGORGE Message of August 25, 2008

 


"Dear children! Also today I call you to personal conversion. You be those who will convert and, with your life, will witness, love, forgive and bring the joy of the Risen One into this world, where my Son died and where people do not feel a need to seek Him and to discover Him in their lives.


You adore Him, and may your hope be hope to those hearts who do not have Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call."


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


"Love the Immaculate with all your heart, fly often to Her by means of ejaculations, or simply with the thought of Her, and She will teach you how to return to Jesus a love without measure for the love which He showed on the Cross and in the most Blessed Sacrament of the altar." (St. Maximilian Kolbe)


Mother Teresa - There is no limit to God's love. It is without measure and its depth cannot be sounded.v Meditations by Padre Pio - My children, we can never prepare ourselves too much for Communion


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Honesty and innocence are lost too soon in growing out of childhood


"In regards insincerity, children do not have this duplicity because they are natural and it is acquired. If their mother tells them to tell a stranger at the door that she is not at home, they will invariably say, `My mother told me to tell you that she is not at home.'


I know of a mother who, after an introduction to several ladies who had dropped in for tea, asked her child, `Now which one did I say was my best friend?' The child in the presence of all answered, `The one with the big teeth.' It takes some falling away from the childlike simplicity that purchases Heaven, before one develops the film of dishonesty."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Today, the Majesty of God enveloped and transpierced my soul to its very depths. The greatness of God is pervading my being and flooding me so that I am completely drowning in His greatness. I am dissolving and disappearing entirely in Him as in my life-source, as in perfect life. (983)


My Lord and my God, You know that it is You alone whom my soul has come to love. My soul is entirely drowned in You, O Lord. Even if I did not accomplish any of the things that You have made known to me, O Lord, I would be completely at peace because I would have done what I could. (989)


This evening, when I heard the hymn, "Good night, Holy Head of my Jesus," on the radio, my spirit was suddenly swept away to God's mysterious bosom, and I knew in what the greatness of a soul consists and what matters to God: love, love, and once again, love.


And I understood how all that exists is saturated with God, and such a love of God inundated my soul that I am at a loss to describe it. Happy the soul that knows how to love unreservedly, for in this lies its greatness. (997)


Aug 25


Quote of the Day - In order to avoid discord, never contradict anyone except in case of sin or some danger to a neighbor; and when necessary to contradict others, do it with tact and not with temper. -St. Louis IX


Today's Tidbit - The Piarists were formed in 1597 and are still dedicated to offering free education to the poor, especially children. The order has more than 1400 members and operate schools and colleges throughout Europe


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. AUGUST 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


We are called to evangelize through the Madonna's words and miracles at Medjugorje:


I am anxious for people to know what is happening in Medjugorje. Speak about it so that everyone will be converted (Special Message 1985).


And in Matthew's gospel, the risen Christ also gives his disciples a special charge:


Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you (Mt. 28:19-20).


Reflection:


St .John Calasanctius took this commission of Christ to heart in his evangelization and teaching of the young.


Born in 1557, he was ordained a priest and later dedicated himself to caring for poor children, founding a religious order pledged to that work. "This ministry," he once wrote, "is directed to the well-being of body and soul. At the same time that it shapes behavior, it also fosters devotion and Christian doctrine."


Application:


Deeply devoted to the Blessed Virgin, St. Joseph Calasanctius wrote this Trinitarian Prayer of Praise to Mary. Let us offer it now for all children that live in poverty:


Let us offer praise and thanksgiving to the Most Holy


Trinity who has shown us the Virgin Mary,


Clothed with the sun, the moon beneath her feet, and on her head a mystic crown of 12 stars.


Let us praise and thank the divine Father who elected her for His daughters. Our Father.v Praised be the divine Father who predestined her to be the Mother of his divine Son. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who preserved her from all stain in her conception. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who adorned her at her birth with his most beautiful gifts. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who gave her St. Joseph to be her companion and chaste spouse. Hail Mary. Glory be..


Let us praise and thank the divine Son who chose her for his Mother.


Our Father.


Praised be the divine Son who became incarnate in her bosom and there abode for 9 months. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who was born of her and was nourished by her. Hail Mary.. Praised be the divine Son who in his childhood was taught by her.


Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who revealed to her the mystery of the redemption of the world. Hail Mary. Glory be.


Let us praise and thank the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse.


Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse. Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who revealed first to her his name of Holy Spirit. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose miracle she was at once Virgin and Mother. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose power she was the living temple of the ever blessed Trinity. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whom she was exalted in heaven above every living creature. Hail Mary. Glory Be.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Message of August 25, 2007 "Dear children! Also today I call you to conversion. May your life, little children, be a reflection of God's goodness and not of hatred and unfaithfulness. Pray, little children, that prayer may become life for you. In this way, in your life you will discover the peace and joy which God gives to those who have an open heart to His love.


And you who are far from Gods mercy, convert so that God may not become deaf to your prayers and that it may not be too late for you. Therefore, in this time of grace, convert and put God in the first place in your life. Thank you for having responded to my call."


"For on that day when her death was so close, she was not concerned that her body should be sumptuously wrapped or embalmed with spices, nor with any thought of choosing a monument or even for burial in her own country.


Of such things she gave us no command, but only desired to be remembered at Thy altar, which she had served without ever missing so much as a day, on which she knew that the Holy Victim was offered, by whom the handwriting is blotted out of the decree that was contrary to us, by which offering too the enemy was overcome who, reckoning our sins and seeking what may be laid to our charge, found nothing in Him, in Whom we are conquerors.


Who shall restore to Him His innocent blood? Who shall give Him back the price by which He purchased us and so take us from Him? To this sacrament of our redemption Thy handmaid had bound her soul by the bond of faith." (St. Augustine, writing of his mother St. Monica)


Mother Teresa - I for God and God for me. I live for God and give up my own self, and in this way God lives for me.


Meditations by Padre Pio - If you succeed in over coming temptations it has the effect of soap on dirty linen (AdFA, 158).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - The less said the better sometimes!


"There are moments when it is very difficult to express one's views, for example, when a husband is asked how he likes his wife's new hat, or how he likes her new Italian haircut - which to him resembles unstrung spaghetti.


Women, when faced with something they do not like, generally go into ecstasies of praise in order to cover up their real mind. Men generally descend to monosyllables or a long grunt.


When a man gets mad at his wife at cards he generally calls her `dear' but with such a coolness as to make her think she is a `Frigidear'. Tact, in such difficult moments, does not mean lying, nor smoothness at the expense of truth, but it does mean circumspection."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - At eleven o'clock Jesus said to me, My host, you are refreshment for My tormented Heart. I thought, after these words, that my heart would burn up. And He brought me into such close intimacy with Himself that my heart was espoused to His Heart in a loving union, and I could feel the faintest stir of His Heart and He, of mine.


The fire of my created love was joined to the ardor of His eternal love. This one grace surpasses all others in its immensity. His Trinitarian Being enveloped me entirely, and I am totally immersed in Him.


My littleness is, as it were, wrestling with this Immortal Mighty One. I am immersed in incomprehensible love and incomprehensible torture because of His Passion. All that concerns His Being is imparted to me also. (1056)


Up to now, Jesus has been bringing me to know about, and to have a presentiment of, this grace, but today He granted it to me. I would not even dare to dream about it.


My heart is in ceaseless ecstasy, as it were, although outwardly nothing disturbs my contacts with my neighbor or my attending to various matters. Nothing is capable of interrupting my ecstasy, nor can anyone suspect it, because I have asked God to protect me from detection by people.


And, together with this grace, there entered my soul a whole ocean of light, enabling me to understand God and myself. Amazement overwhelms me entirely and leads me as if into a new ecstasy [aroused by the fact] that God has deigned to descend to me, who am so little. (1057)


Aug 26 - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html


Quote of the Day - Remember that the Christian life is one of action; not of speech and daydreams. Let there be few words and many deeds, and let them be done will. -St. Vincent Pallotti


Today's Tidbit - Icons are Byzantine-style paintings or representation of Christ, the Blessed Mother and other saints. Icons are a dominant religious artistic form in Eastern Churches. Icons often take the places of statutes when they are used.


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.


- AUGUST 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Today Our Lady speaks of fasting "with the heart":


Dear children, today I call you to begin fasting with the heart. There are many people who fast only because everyone else is fasting. It has become an empty practice. And so I ask the parish to fast out of gratitude to God for allowing me to remain so long with you. Dear children, fast and pray with the heart (Weekly Message September 20, 1984).


In Luke's gospel, Jesus fasts in the wilderness:


Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the Devil. He ate nothing at all during those days, and when they were over, he was famished (Lk 4:1-2).


Reflection:


At times, Our Lady of Medjugorje speaks of "fasting with the heart," a term meaning, first of all, accepting the invitation to fast with confidence in God, who will bring forth beautiful fruits from our efforts.


Second, it means to anticipate and welcome the spiritual dynamic that will begin to reshape our lives; this includes a deeper sense of repentance, a joyous realization of God's forgiveness, and a growing love, faith and hope.


Fasting with the heart also means experiencing a new freedom from material things, for we will begin to see the essential in life and not be mired in the superfluous. It means growing in a profound love for God and neighbor, a deepening joy in Christ, and new eyes to see as the Lord sees. Ultimately, to fast with the heart is a gift of grace, not a penance, from the heavenly Father.


Application: Can you identify any changes that have happened to you since you began fasting? What changes would you like to see?

 

 

 

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 Christians. 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.

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 27 - ST. MONICA


Message of August 25, 2004


"Dear children! I call you all to conversion of heart. Decide, as in the first days of my coming here, for a complete change of your life. In this way, little children, you will have the strength to kneel and to open your hearts before God.V God will hear your prayers and answer them. Before God, I intercede for each of you. Thank you for having responded to my call."


"We do not sin when we adore Christ in the Eucharist; we do sin when we do not adore Christ in the Eucharist." (St. Augustine)

 


Mother Teresa - Total surrender consists in giving ourselves completely to God. We must give ourselves fully to God because God has given Himself fully to us. If God owes nothing to us and is ready to impart to us no less than Himself, shall we answer with just a fraction of ourselves?


Meditations by Padre Pio - In order to reach our final goal, we must follow our Divine Leader who usually leads chosen Souls by the path He Himself has trodden and by no other; by the path, I tell you, of self-denial and suffering.

 


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


Making truth personal through solitude with God "Only in solitariness is true spirituality born, when the soul stands naked before its God. In that moment these are the only two realities in the universe. In this discovery is born love of neighbor, for then we love our fellow human beings, not because of what they can do for us, but because we see that they too are real or potential children of God. Though truth is not personal, we make it personal by contemplation." We must passionately guard our passions!


"Listening to a political figure give a television report in the nation on a world crisis with somewhat the same passion that he would read off the price of cheese in Switzerland and Burma makes one wonder if there is any fire or enthusiasm left for great causes. Obviously, enthusiasm has something to do with passion.


But that word generally evokes two kinds of extreme and wrong reactions: one view is that passion is something we ought to be ashamed of; the other is that passion is always right, and that if we do not give way to its demands, we hurt our personality."

 


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


This deeper knowledge of God gives me full liberty and spiritual freedom, and nothing can disturb my close union with Him, not even the angelic powers. I feel that I am great when I am united to God. What happiness it is to have the consciousness of God in one's heart and to live in close intimacy with Him. (1135)


In the evening, He gave me to understand how fleeting all earthly things are, and [how] everything that appears great disappears like smoke, and does not give the soul freedom, but weariness.


Happy the soul that understands these things and with only one foot touches the earth. My repose is to be united with You; everything else tires me. Oh, how much I feel I am in exile! I see that no one understands my interior life. You alone understand me, You who are hidden in my heart and yet are eternally alive. (1141)


Today, my soul entered into close union with the Lord. He made known to me how I should always abandon myself to His holy will: In one moment, I can give you more than you are able to desire. (1169)


Aug 27 - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html Quote of the Day - Son, nothing in this world now affords me delight. I do not know what there is now for me to do or why I am still here, all my hopes in this world being now fulfilled. -St. Monica about the conversion of Augustine


Today's Tidbit - On Sundays and certain feasts throughout the year pastors are required to offer the Mass for the faithful entrusted to their care. This Is often called Mass for the people or "Pro Populo."


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. -


AUGUST 27 - ST. MONICA


Today the Blessed Mother speaks of faith as the foundation of our lives:


From the very beginning I have been conveying the messages of God to the world. It is a great pity not to believe it. Faith is essential, but one cannot compel a person to believe. Faith is the foundation from which everything else flows (First Years December 31, 1981).


In his letter to the Hebrews, Paul defines faith:


Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Indeed, by faith our ancestors received approval. By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible (Heb 11:1-3).


Reflection: Today we honor one of the great women of faith, St. Monica, the patroness of Christian mothers. Born in 331, she married and had children, one of whom was Augustine.


She poured forth many tears and prayers for his conversion, which she witnessed in her lifetime. He later went on to become a priest, bishop, and one of the church's greatest theologians. It is appropriate that our readings today deal with faith, for this was the foundation of Monica's life and her legacy to her children.


Application: Faith is a gift. Today, pray in thanksgiving for this most precious of gifts, and ask the Lord to deepen it.


MOTHER MARYAM’S MEDJUGORGE Message of August 25, 2008

 


"Dear children! Also today I call you to personal conversion. You be those who will convert and, with your life, will witness, love, forgive and bring the joy of the Risen One into this world, where my Son died and where people do not feel a need to seek Him and to discover Him in their lives.


You adore Him, and may your hope be hope to those hearts who do not have Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call."


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


"Love the Immaculate with all your heart, fly often to Her by means of ejaculations, or simply with the thought of Her, and She will teach you how to return to Jesus a love without measure for the love which He showed on the Cross and in the most Blessed Sacrament of the altar." (St. Maximilian Kolbe)


Mother Teresa - There is no limit to God's love. It is without measure and its depth cannot be sounded.v Meditations by Padre Pio - My children, we can never prepare ourselves too much for Communion


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Honesty and innocence are lost too soon in growing out of childhood


"In regards insincerity, children do not have this duplicity because they are natural and it is acquired. If their mother tells them to tell a stranger at the door that she is not at home, they will invariably say, `My mother told me to tell you that she is not at home.'


I know of a mother who, after an introduction to several ladies who had dropped in for tea, asked her child, `Now which one did I say was my best friend?' The child in the presence of all answered, `The one with the big teeth.' It takes some falling away from the childlike simplicity that purchases Heaven, before one develops the film of dishonesty."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Today, the Majesty of God enveloped and transpierced my soul to its very depths. The greatness of God is pervading my being and flooding me so that I am completely drowning in His greatness. I am dissolving and disappearing entirely in Him as in my life-source, as in perfect life. (983)


My Lord and my God, You know that it is You alone whom my soul has come to love. My soul is entirely drowned in You, O Lord. Even if I did not accomplish any of the things that You have made known to me, O Lord, I would be completely at peace because I would have done what I could. (989)


This evening, when I heard the hymn, "Good night, Holy Head of my Jesus," on the radio, my spirit was suddenly swept away to God's mysterious bosom, and I knew in what the greatness of a soul consists and what matters to God: love, love, and once again, love.


And I understood how all that exists is saturated with God, and such a love of God inundated my soul that I am at a loss to describe it. Happy the soul that knows how to love unreservedly, for in this lies its greatness. (997)


Aug 25


Quote of the Day - In order to avoid discord, never contradict anyone except in case of sin or some danger to a neighbor; and when necessary to contradict others, do it with tact and not with temper. -St. Louis IX


Today's Tidbit - The Piarists were formed in 1597 and are still dedicated to offering free education to the poor, especially children. The order has more than 1400 members and operate schools and colleges throughout Europe


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. AUGUST 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


We are called to evangelize through the Madonna's words and miracles at Medjugorje:


I am anxious for people to know what is happening in Medjugorje. Speak about it so that everyone will be converted (Special Message 1985).


And in Matthew's gospel, the risen Christ also gives his disciples a special charge:


Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you (Mt. 28:19-20).


Reflection:


St .John Calasanctius took this commission of Christ to heart in his evangelization and teaching of the young.


Born in 1557, he was ordained a priest and later dedicated himself to caring for poor children, founding a religious order pledged to that work. "This ministry," he once wrote, "is directed to the well-being of body and soul. At the same time that it shapes behavior, it also fosters devotion and Christian doctrine."


Application:


Deeply devoted to the Blessed Virgin, St. Joseph Calasanctius wrote this Trinitarian Prayer of Praise to Mary. Let us offer it now for all children that live in poverty:


Let us offer praise and thanksgiving to the Most Holy


Trinity who has shown us the Virgin Mary,


Clothed with the sun, the moon beneath her feet, and on her head a mystic crown of 12 stars.


Let us praise and thank the divine Father who elected her for His daughters. Our Father.v Praised be the divine Father who predestined her to be the Mother of his divine Son. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who preserved her from all stain in her conception. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who adorned her at her birth with his most beautiful gifts. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who gave her St. Joseph to be her companion and chaste spouse. Hail Mary. Glory be..


Let us praise and thank the divine Son who chose her for his Mother.


Our Father.


Praised be the divine Son who became incarnate in her bosom and there abode for 9 months. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who was born of her and was nourished by her. Hail Mary.. Praised be the divine Son who in his childhood was taught by her.


Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who revealed to her the mystery of the redemption of the world. Hail Mary. Glory be.


Let us praise and thank the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse.


Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse. Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who revealed first to her his name of Holy Spirit. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose miracle she was at once Virgin and Mother. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose power she was the living temple of the ever blessed Trinity. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whom she was exalted in heaven above every living creature. Hail Mary. Glory Be.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Message of August 25, 2007 "Dear children! Also today I call you to conversion. May your life, little children, be a reflection of God's goodness and not of hatred and unfaithfulness. Pray, little children, that prayer may become life for you. In this way, in your life you will discover the peace and joy which God gives to those who have an open heart to His love.


And you who are far from Gods mercy, convert so that God may not become deaf to your prayers and that it may not be too late for you. Therefore, in this time of grace, convert and put God in the first place in your life. Thank you for having responded to my call."


"For on that day when her death was so close, she was not concerned that her body should be sumptuously wrapped or embalmed with spices, nor with any thought of choosing a monument or even for burial in her own country.


Of such things she gave us no command, but only desired to be remembered at Thy altar, which she had served without ever missing so much as a day, on which she knew that the Holy Victim was offered, by whom the handwriting is blotted out of the decree that was contrary to us, by which offering too the enemy was overcome who, reckoning our sins and seeking what may be laid to our charge, found nothing in Him, in Whom we are conquerors.


Who shall restore to Him His innocent blood? Who shall give Him back the price by which He purchased us and so take us from Him? To this sacrament of our redemption Thy handmaid had bound her soul by the bond of faith." (St. Augustine, writing of his mother St. Monica)


Mother Teresa - I for God and God for me. I live for God and give up my own self, and in this way God lives for me.


Meditations by Padre Pio - If you succeed in over coming temptations it has the effect of soap on dirty linen (AdFA, 158).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - The less said the better sometimes!


"There are moments when it is very difficult to express one's views, for example, when a husband is asked how he likes his wife's new hat, or how he likes her new Italian haircut - which to him resembles unstrung spaghetti.


Women, when faced with something they do not like, generally go into ecstasies of praise in order to cover up their real mind. Men generally descend to monosyllables or a long grunt.


When a man gets mad at his wife at cards he generally calls her `dear' but with such a coolness as to make her think she is a `Frigidear'. Tact, in such difficult moments, does not mean lying, nor smoothness at the expense of truth, but it does mean circumspection."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - At eleven o'clock Jesus said to me, My host, you are refreshment for My tormented Heart. I thought, after these words, that my heart would burn up. And He brought me into such close intimacy with Himself that my heart was espoused to His Heart in a loving union, and I could feel the faintest stir of His Heart and He, of mine.


The fire of my created love was joined to the ardor of His eternal love. This one grace surpasses all others in its immensity. His Trinitarian Being enveloped me entirely, and I am totally immersed in Him.


My littleness is, as it were, wrestling with this Immortal Mighty One. I am immersed in incomprehensible love and incomprehensible torture because of His Passion. All that concerns His Being is imparted to me also. (1056)


Up to now, Jesus has been bringing me to know about, and to have a presentiment of, this grace, but today He granted it to me. I would not even dare to dream about it.


My heart is in ceaseless ecstasy, as it were, although outwardly nothing disturbs my contacts with my neighbor or my attending to various matters. Nothing is capable of interrupting my ecstasy, nor can anyone suspect it, because I have asked God to protect me from detection by people.


And, together with this grace, there entered my soul a whole ocean of light, enabling me to understand God and myself. Amazement overwhelms me entirely and leads me as if into a new ecstasy [aroused by the fact] that God has deigned to descend to me, who am so little. (1057)


Aug 26 - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html


Quote of the Day - Remember that the Christian life is one of action; not of speech and daydreams. Let there be few words and many deeds, and let them be done will. -St. Vincent Pallotti


Today's Tidbit - Icons are Byzantine-style paintings or representation of Christ, the Blessed Mother and other saints. Icons are a dominant religious artistic form in Eastern Churches. Icons often take the places of statutes when they are used.


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.


- AUGUST 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Today Our Lady speaks of fasting "with the heart":


Dear children, today I call you to begin fasting with the heart. There are many people who fast only because everyone else is fasting. It has become an empty practice. And so I ask the parish to fast out of gratitude to God for allowing me to remain so long with you. Dear children, fast and pray with the heart (Weekly Message September 20, 1984).


In Luke's gospel, Jesus fasts in the wilderness:


Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the Devil. He ate nothing at all during those days, and when they were over, he was famished (Lk 4:1-2).


Reflection:


At times, Our Lady of Medjugorje speaks of "fasting with the heart," a term meaning, first of all, accepting the invitation to fast with confidence in God, who will bring forth beautiful fruits from our efforts.


Second, it means to anticipate and welcome the spiritual dynamic that will begin to reshape our lives; this includes a deeper sense of repentance, a joyous realization of God's forgiveness, and a growing love, faith and hope.


Fasting with the heart also means experiencing a new freedom from material things, for we will begin to see the essential in life and not be mired in the superfluous. It means growing in a profound love for God and neighbor, a deepening joy in Christ, and new eyes to see as the Lord sees. Ultimately, to fast with the heart is a gift of grace, not a penance, from the heavenly Father.


Application: Can you identify any changes that have happened to you since you began fasting? What changes would you like to see?

 

 

 

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 Christians. 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.

But that word generally evokes two kinds of extreme and wrong reactions: one view is that passion is something we ought to be ashamed of; the other is that passion is always right, and that if we do not give way to its demands, we hurt our personality."

 


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


This deeper knowledge of God gives me full liberty and spiritual freedom, and nothing can disturb my close union with Him, not even the angelic powers. I feel that I am great when I am united to God. What happiness it is to have the consciousness of God in one's heart and to live in close intimacy with Him. (1135)


In the evening, He gave me to understand how fleeting all earthly things are, and [how] everything that appears great disappears like smoke, and does not give the soul freedom, but weariness.


Happy the soul that understands these things and with only one foot touches the earth. My repose is to be united with You; everything else tires me. Oh, how much I feel I am in exile! I see that no one understands my interior life. You alone understand me, You who are hidden in my heart and yet are eternally alive. (1141)


Today, my soul entered into close union with the Lord. He made known to me how I should always abandon myself to His holy will: In one moment, I can give you more than you are able to desire. (1169)


Aug 27 - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html Quote of the Day - Son, nothing in this world now affords me delight. I do not know what there is now for me to do or why I am still here, all my hopes in this world being now fulfilled. -St. Monica about the conversion of Augustine


Today's Tidbit - On Sundays and certain feasts throughout the year pastors are required to offer the Mass for the faithful entrusted to their care. This Is often called Mass for the people or "Pro Populo."

AUGUST 27 - ST. MONICA


Today the Blessed Mother speaks of faith as the foundation of our lives:


From the very beginning I have been conveying the messages of God to the world. It is a great pity not to believe it. Faith is essential, but one cannot compel a person to believe. Faith is the foundation from which everything else flows (First Years December 31, 1981).


In his letter to the Hebrews, Paul defines faith:


Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Indeed, by faith our ancestors received approval. By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible (Heb 11:1-3).


Reflection: Today we honor one of the great women of faith, St. Monica, the patroness of Christian mothers. Born in 331, she married and had children, one of whom was Augustine.


She poured forth many tears and prayers for his conversion, which she witnessed in her lifetime. He later went on to become a priest, bishop, and one of the church's greatest theologians. It is appropriate that our readings today deal with faith, for this was the foundation of Monica's life and her legacy to her children.


Application: Faith is a gift. Today, pray in thanksgiving for this most precious of gifts, and ask the Lord to deepen it.


MOTHER MARYAM’S MEDJUGORGE Message of August 25, 2008

 


"Dear children! Also today I call you to personal conversion. You be those who will convert and, with your life, will witness, love, forgive and bring the joy of the Risen One into this world, where my Son died and where people do not feel a need to seek Him and to discover Him in their lives.


You adore Him, and may your hope be hope to those hearts who do not have Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call."


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


"Love the Immaculate with all your heart, fly often to Her by means of ejaculations, or simply with the thought of Her, and She will teach you how to return to Jesus a love without measure for the love which He showed on the Cross and in the most Blessed Sacrament of the altar." (St. Maximilian Kolbe)


Mother Teresa - There is no limit to God's love. It is without measure and its depth cannot be sounded.v Meditations by Padre Pio - My children, we can never prepare ourselves too much for Communion


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Honesty and innocence are lost too soon in growing out of childhood


"In regards insincerity, children do not have this duplicity because they are natural and it is acquired. If their mother tells them to tell a stranger at the door that she is not at home, they will invariably say, `My mother told me to tell you that she is not at home.'


I know of a mother who, after an introduction to several ladies who had dropped in for tea, asked her child, `Now which one did I say was my best friend?' The child in the presence of all answered, `The one with the big teeth.' It takes some falling away from the childlike simplicity that purchases Heaven, before one develops the film of dishonesty."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Today, the Majesty of God enveloped and transpierced my soul to its very depths. The greatness of God is pervading my being and flooding me so that I am completely drowning in His greatness. I am dissolving and disappearing entirely in Him as in my life-source, as in perfect life. (983)


My Lord and my God, You know that it is You alone whom my soul has come to love. My soul is entirely drowned in You, O Lord. Even if I did not accomplish any of the things that You have made known to me, O Lord, I would be completely at peace because I would have done what I could. (989)


This evening, when I heard the hymn, "Good night, Holy Head of my Jesus," on the radio, my spirit was suddenly swept away to God's mysterious bosom, and I knew in what the greatness of a soul consists and what matters to God: love, love, and once again, love.


And I understood how all that exists is saturated with God, and such a love of God inundated my soul that I am at a loss to describe it. Happy the soul that knows how to love unreservedly, for in this lies its greatness. (997)


Aug 25


Quote of the Day - In order to avoid discord, never contradict anyone except in case of sin or some danger to a neighbor; and when necessary to contradict others, do it with tact and not with temper. -St. Louis IX


Today's Tidbit - The Piarists were formed in 1597 and are still dedicated to offering free education to the poor, especially children. The order has more than 1400 members and operate schools and colleges throughout Europe


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. AUGUST 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


We are called to evangelize through the Madonna's words and miracles at Medjugorje:


I am anxious for people to know what is happening in Medjugorje. Speak about it so that everyone will be converted (Special Message 1985).


And in Matthew's gospel, the risen Christ also gives his disciples a special charge:


Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you (Mt. 28:19-20).


Reflection:


St .John Calasanctius took this commission of Christ to heart in his evangelization and teaching of the young.


Born in 1557, he was ordained a priest and later dedicated himself to caring for poor children, founding a religious order pledged to that work. "This ministry," he once wrote, "is directed to the well-being of body and soul. At the same time that it shapes behavior, it also fosters devotion and Christian doctrine."


Application:


Deeply devoted to the Blessed Virgin, St. Joseph Calasanctius wrote this Trinitarian Prayer of Praise to Mary. Let us offer it now for all children that live in poverty:


Let us offer praise and thanksgiving to the Most Holy


Trinity who has shown us the Virgin Mary,


Clothed with the sun, the moon beneath her feet, and on her head a mystic crown of 12 stars.


Let us praise and thank the divine Father who elected her for His daughters. Our Father.v Praised be the divine Father who predestined her to be the Mother of his divine Son. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who preserved her from all stain in her conception. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who adorned her at her birth with his most beautiful gifts. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who gave her St. Joseph to be her companion and chaste spouse. Hail Mary. Glory be..


Let us praise and thank the divine Son who chose her for his Mother.


Our Father.


Praised be the divine Son who became incarnate in her bosom and there abode for 9 months. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who was born of her and was nourished by her. Hail Mary.. Praised be the divine Son who in his childhood was taught by her.


Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who revealed to her the mystery of the redemption of the world. Hail Mary. Glory be.


Let us praise and thank the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse.


Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse. Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who revealed first to her his name of Holy Spirit. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose miracle she was at once Virgin and Mother. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose power she was the living temple of the ever blessed Trinity. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whom she was exalted in heaven above every living creature. Hail Mary. Glory Be.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Message of August 25, 2007 "Dear children! Also today I call you to conversion. May your life, little children, be a reflection of God's goodness and not of hatred and unfaithfulness. Pray, little children, that prayer may become life for you. In this way, in your life you will discover the peace and joy which God gives to those who have an open heart to His love.


And you who are far from Gods mercy, convert so that God may not become deaf to your prayers and that it may not be too late for you. Therefore, in this time of grace, convert and put God in the first place in your life. Thank you for having responded to my call."


"For on that day when her death was so close, she was not concerned that her body should be sumptuously wrapped or embalmed with spices, nor with any thought of choosing a monument or even for burial in her own country.


Of such things she gave us no command, but only desired to be remembered at Thy altar, which she had served without ever missing so much as a day, on which she knew that the Holy Victim was offered, by whom the handwriting is blotted out of the decree that was contrary to us, by which offering too the enemy was overcome who, reckoning our sins and seeking what may be laid to our charge, found nothing in Him, in Whom we are conquerors.


Who shall restore to Him His innocent blood? Who shall give Him back the price by which He purchased us and so take us from Him? To this sacrament of our redemption Thy handmaid had bound her soul by the bond of faith." (St. Augustine, writing of his mother St. Monica)


Mother Teresa - I for God and God for me. I live for God and give up my own self, and in this way God lives for me.


Meditations by Padre Pio - If you succeed in over coming temptations it has the effect of soap on dirty linen (AdFA, 158).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - The less said the better sometimes!


"There are moments when it is very difficult to express one's views, for example, when a husband is asked how he likes his wife's new hat, or how he likes her new Italian haircut - which to him resembles unstrung spaghetti.


Women, when faced with something they do not like, generally go into ecstasies of praise in order to cover up their real mind. Men generally descend to monosyllables or a long grunt.


When a man gets mad at his wife at cards he generally calls her `dear' but with such a coolness as to make her think she is a `Frigidear'. Tact, in such difficult moments, does not mean lying, nor smoothness at the expense of truth, but it does mean circumspection."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - At eleven o'clock Jesus said to me, My host, you are refreshment for My tormented Heart. I thought, after these words, that my heart would burn up. And He brought me into such close intimacy with Himself that my heart was espoused to His Heart in a loving union, and I could feel the faintest stir of His Heart and He, of mine.


The fire of my created love was joined to the ardor of His eternal love. This one grace surpasses all others in its immensity. His Trinitarian Being enveloped me entirely, and I am totally immersed in Him.


My littleness is, as it were, wrestling with this Immortal Mighty One. I am immersed in incomprehensible love and incomprehensible torture because of His Passion. All that concerns His Being is imparted to me also. (1056)


Up to now, Jesus has been bringing me to know about, and to have a presentiment of, this grace, but today He granted it to me. I would not even dare to dream about it.


My heart is in ceaseless ecstasy, as it were, although outwardly nothing disturbs my contacts with my neighbor or my attending to various matters. Nothing is capable of interrupting my ecstasy, nor can anyone suspect it, because I have asked God to protect me from detection by people.


And, together with this grace, there entered my soul a whole ocean of light, enabling me to understand God and myself. Amazement overwhelms me entirely and leads me as if into a new ecstasy [aroused by the fact] that God has deigned to descend to me, who am so little. (1057)


Aug 26 - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html


Quote of the Day - Remember that the Christian life is one of action; not of speech and daydreams. Let there be few words and many deeds, and let them be done will. -St. Vincent Pallotti


Today's Tidbit - Icons are Byzantine-style paintings or representation of Christ, the Blessed Mother and other saints. Icons are a dominant religious artistic form in Eastern Churches. Icons often take the places of statutes when they are used.


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.


- AUGUST 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Today Our Lady speaks of fasting "with the heart":


Dear children, today I call you to begin fasting with the heart. There are many people who fast only because everyone else is fasting. It has become an empty practice. And so I ask the parish to fast out of gratitude to God for allowing me to remain so long with you. Dear children, fast and pray with the heart (Weekly Message September 20, 1984).


In Luke's gospel, Jesus fasts in the wilderness:


Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the Devil. He ate nothing at all during those days, and when they were over, he was famished (Lk 4:1-2).


Reflection:


At times, Our Lady of Medjugorje speaks of "fasting with the heart," a term meaning, first of all, accepting the invitation to fast with confidence in God, who will bring forth beautiful fruits from our efforts.


Second, it means to anticipate and welcome the spiritual dynamic that will begin to reshape our lives; this includes a deeper sense of repentance, a joyous realization of God's forgiveness, and a growing love, faith and hope.


Fasting with the heart also means experiencing a new freedom from material things, for we will begin to see the essential in life and not be mired in the superfluous. It means growing in a profound love for God and neighbor, a deepening joy in Christ, and new eyes to see as the Lord sees. Ultimately, to fast with the heart is a gift of grace, not a penance, from the heavenly Father.


Application: Can you identify any changes that have happened to you since you began fasting? What changes would you like to see?

 

 

 

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 Christians. 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.

We Shall Be Invisible to Evil Men!


"About that time Herod the king laid violent hands upon some who belonged to the church. He killed James the brother of John with the sword; and when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread.


And when he had seized him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him out to the people. So Peter was kept in prison; but earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church.


The very night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison; and behold, an angel of the Lord appeared, and a light shone in the cell; and he struck Peter on the side and woke him, saying, "Get up quickly." And the chains fell off his hands.


And the angel said to him, "Dress yourself and put on your sandals." And he did so. And he said to him, "Wrap your mantle around you and follow me." And he went out and followed him; he did not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision.


When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened to them of its own accord, and they went out and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel left him.


And Peter came to himself, and said, "Now I am sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting."


When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying. And when he knocked at the door of the gateway, a maid named Rhoda came to answer.


Recognizing Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and told that Peter was standing at the gate. They said to her, "You are mad."


But she insisted that it was so. They s said, "It is his angel!" But Peter continued knocking; and when they opened, they saw him and were amazed.


But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, "Tell this to James and to the brethren." Then he departed and went to another place.


Now when day came, there was no small stir among the soldiers over what had become of Peter. And when Herod had sought for him and could not find him, he examined the sentries and ordered that they should be put to death.---" (Cf. Act 12:1-19)


"Jesus looked at them and said to them, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." (Cf. Mat 19:26)


Yes, all things are possible with God! He promised to protect His Faithful Remnant during the Tribulation in miraculous ways.


As the above mentioned citation from the Acts of the Apostles and the messages of Jesus through John Leary below attest, that includes making us invisible to evil men during the Tribulation.


This reminds one of the failed attempts by the former Soviet Union to bomb St. James Church in Medjugorje.


The Soviets were unable to locate the Church using sophisticated equipment. You will recall also that years ago, a US pilot was shot down over Bosnia, and he survived without being detected.


Later he told the American press that enemy troops walked within a few feet of him while he was poorly hidden in some bushes, and surprisingly he remained undetected. ------ He said that he was praying the rosary at the time.


Jesus we trust in you!


John Leary (1) December 9, 2005:


Jesus said: "My people, during the tribulation My loving faithful will be the target of the evil ones and they will try to kill you. Some of My faithful will be martyred and become instant saints, while the rest will be miraculously protected by My angels at My refuges.


My faithful must be prepared and ready to die for your faith, but you must not take up weapons to kill. My angels will fight for you and make you invisible to those evil ones who want to kill you.


Call on My grace to endure this trial until I will bring victory and renew the earth at My Era of Peace. You have yet to see how evil it will get, but you also have yet to see My power wielded against these evil ones who want to control you.


You must have faith and trust in My power, even when it will seem hopeless. No matter how many stand against you, with Me on your side, you need not have any fear or anxiety. "


January 9, 2008:


At Holy Name after Communion I could see the scene of Jesus walking on the water and then the windy sea subsided. Jesus said: "My people, in this Gospel reading from Mark (Mark 6:45-52) the disciples were astonished to see Me walking on the water.


When I got into the boat, the wind ceased and again they were amazed that I could control the wind and the sea. I had told My apostles that I was God's Son, and they had seen other miracles that I performed.


Yet they did not have the Holy Spirit in them until later, and at this time they did not comprehend that I could perform miracles because I was God's Son.


Even today I am performing miracles of healing for those who have faith that I can heal them. There are still many without faith in Me that cannot believe in miracles, but still they happen.


In the coming days of the tribulation believe in Me that I will perform many miracles to protect My faithful from the evil ones, and I will provide for all of your needs.


Like the apostles that were fearful that I was a ghost on the water, some people of today are fearful of the evil ones who are trying to kill them. Some truly will die as martyrs, but they will be instant saints in heaven.


My faithful should have no fear of these evil ones because My power is greater than theirs, and My angels will protect you by making you invisible. I will multiply your food, fuel, and graces in giving you My Hosts.


When you see My miracles as they will be happening, understand My power as God, and be not unbelieving, but believe in the glory of My power by giving praise and thanks to your God."


January 16, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, your Homeland Security people have been issuing decrees that all new passports have to have a microchip in them that contains your personal information.


By the Real ID Act passed by your Congress and your President, all of your driver's licenses will have to have a microchip as well.


These chips are not that secure, and identity thieves can steal your information with the right kind of microwave reader. In order to prevent this theft, I am recommending if you have such documents containing microchips, that you can wrap them in aluminum foil or lead photo pouches so they cannot be read by such thieves trying to steal your identity.


All of these one world people want to have you chipped so they can track where you are.


Making chips mandatory in your passports and driver's licenses is just the first step. The next step will be to make it mandatory that you have to put a chip in your body so you will not lose it.


But this will allow them to control your mind with voices, so refuse to take any chips in your body, even if they threaten to kill you in their detention center death camps.


This threat of death will be another reason to leave for your refuges guided by your guardian angels, before they can capture you at your house. Pray for My protection and I will have My angels guard you, and make you invisible to those who want to kill you. "


January 20, 2008:


God the Eternal Father said: "I AM stands before you. Thank you for following My wishes to have a chapel dedicated in My honor for your God the Father.


You will receive many graces and blessings for listening to My instructions. This vision of a mural of Me on the floor is a testimony to all of the many miraculous images that are appearing on these holy grounds.


You have many prayer meetings here, and all of your prayers will help sustain you here through the tribulation. Call on My angels of protection to shield you from the evil ones so they cannot see you.


Also, I will instruct you in your preparations for water and food to feed you. Give praise and glory to your God because soon you will see many catastrophic events on the earth, for it will change as you know it. "


April 24, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, this empty chair with Egyptian markings on it represents the chair of power for the Antichrist. He will be going to Egypt to be anointed by the high priest of Satan. He will be put in charge of the European Union and he will have his brief reign before I will bring his power to a close with My Comet of Chastisement.


Do not have any fear of the evil ones, for I will protect you from being persecuted when you are made invisible. Trust in Me and you will soon see My victory once you see the Antichrist taking his seat of power. "


July 31, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, My little children are precious to Me, and I do not want to see them martyred in the coming cleansing of religious and patriots in the reign of the Antichrist.


I will give the little children under seven years old a special grace from their guardian angel that will make them invisible to the evil ones.


You have been killing many unborn in abortion, and some children by abuse. Those involved in these killings will have to make much reparation for these sins of murder. Pray for a stoppage of abortions and all killings as in wars."


July 19, 2007:

 


Jesus said: "My people, many people, are being led to start building a refuge out in the woods where it will be protected from anyone seeing it. These refuges are being protected by My angels, and are being consecrated to Me and My Blessed Mother.


When you are led by your guardian angels to find these refuges, you will be made invisible to your persecutors. Pray for your protection on your way to your refuges during the tribulation."


August 10, 2007:


Jesus said: "My people, you have no idea of how restricted your life is going to be when martial law will be declared. I have warned you before to get some maps of all the back roads around you so you may be able to use your cars to avoid the main highways.


The vision shows you how the authorities will be setting up barbed wire fences on the main highways as checkpoints to capture those refusing to go along with the one world order. As the control of the roads will gradually tighten, you will eventually be reduced to bikes or walking.


As you are led by your guardian angel to the nearest refuge, pray for My protection so you will be made invisible to those seeking to kill you for your faith.


This will be a desperate hour of persecution that you have not witnessed in America. Have no fear of the evil ones because I will give you My grace to endure this evil time. Some may be martyred, but I will ease your pain.


Others at My refuges will be protected and cared for. This time of evil will be less than three and one-half years, but I will speed up the time. Have faith and patience in My power for soon I will conquer all evil and bring you into My Era of Peace."


June 11, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, once martial law is declared, the one world people will implement their plans to exterminate all people against their new world order. They already have red lists to kill religious people and patriots before martial law is declared. They also have blue lists for the same kind of people to be killed after martial law is declared.


The boxcars are how they will transport their prisoners to the death camps. At the death camps they will use either poison gas or Guillotines to kill the people, and then dispose of their bodies in a crematorium at high temperatures.


Some of My faithful will be martyred for their faith, but the rest will be protected by My angels at My refuges. You do not want to be at your home when these killers will come to get you.


My angels will warn you at the appropriate time when to leave your home for a refuge. My angels will make you invisible so the evil ones will not be able to harm you. Trust in My power and everything will be provided for you. Have no fear, but trust in My care for you."


August 1, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, when you are in flight to a refuge, it would be good to have matches for a fire and cooking utensils with some food. Some of the practical things are needed for survival until you reach a refuge or interim refuge. Preparations for a meal with metal plates and cups could be cleansed for reuse.


Think of things that you would need for your necessities and that will help your list of things to bring.


Trust in Me to multiply your food and water and you will have enough to survive this brief reign of the evil ones.


My angels will lead you to safe havens and protect you by making you invisible. Trust in Me by leaving as soon as I give the word, or you could be captured and martyred at the death camps."


August 5, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, every day you are in a constant battle with the demons between the forces of good and the forces of evil. That is why every day you need to call on My grace and power to defend yourself from the temptations of the devil. You have read in the Scriptures how there will come a time of great tribulation when I will permit the Antichrist to have a brief reign over the earth for less than three and one-half years.


Do not fear this time because My angels of protection will help protect your soul from the evil ones. My power is greater than the demons, and I will be with you at all times.


After the Warning there will be major events in a world famine, a division in My Church, mandatory microchips in the body, and martial law when the Antichrist will be put into power by the one world people. It is at that time that I will call My faithful to My refuges. Call on My help and I will have your guardian angels lead you to the nearest interim refuge and then to a final refuge.


My refuges will be at My Blessed Mother's places of apparition, places of holy ground, or at caves. In the vision you are seeing a car driven into the woods.


If gasoline is still available, and you can drive on the side roads, you will be able to use your cars to drive to your refuges. Otherwise, you will need your bikes or walk to the refuges.


On the way your angels will lead you with a physical sign, and you will be protected by your being made invisible to the evil ones. You will need to leave your houses to avoid capture by the men in black who will be trying to bring you to their death camps.


By having full trust in My protection, you should be at peace at all times without any fear of the evil ones. Trust in My love and protection, even during the time of tribulation."


February 25, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, you are very comfortable in your homes today, but in the coming days of tribulation, My faithful will need My protection at My refuges from the evil ones who will try to kill you for your faith.


Many will be in confusion in these changing events and the leaders of My faithful will be giving advice and direction how to invoke My protection at the appointed time.


When you see world famine, a division in My Church, mandatory chips in the body, and martial law, know that it is time to prepare to come to My refuges.


My refuges will be at My Blessed Mother's places of apparition, places of holy ground, and even caves. At that time I want you to call on My Name and I will have your guardian angels lead you with a physical sign to the nearest place of refuge. vYou will first be led to interim places of refuge where My faithful will have a temporary place of hiding and any food will be multiplied for those who come.


Even at these interim places, which this place is one, I will send My angels to protect you and you will be invisible to your enemies. Rejoice in My merciful protection, even though some will be martyred.


After a while, you will be led further to your final places of refuge. You will remain at My refuges until I come to vanquish the Antichrist and all of the evil ones into hell. Be patient and trust in My protection and how I will provide for your needs."


April 18, 2008:


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 chemtrails. 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."


May 19, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, you are seeing in the vision a picture of terrorists that could be hired by your country to stage missile attacks against your civilian airplanes. The scene is on water where they could make their attack at night near an airport on the shore, and then speed away undetected.


This is a real threat against your airlines, and it has prompted some work to put jamming devices on your civilian aircraft. If multiple attacks were carried out simultaneously, many could be killed on the planes and those killed where the plane crashed.


This kind of terror attack could throw your country into dishevel again as 9-11 did before, and it is another means to initiate a martial law emergency.


Be prepared if such a planned event occurs because you may have to leave for your refuges sooner than you were planning to leave.


Do not hesitate once martial law is declared, because the evil ones will come to your houses to try and force their chips in the body on you.


Refuse to take any chips in the body, and call on My assistance and your guardian angel to make you invisible to the evil ones so your life can be spared. Have no fear and trust in My protection."


June 1, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, this room full of chairs is where you will be holding your home Masses and prayer groups once the division in My Church comes about. Many of these home Mass sites will be secret interim refuges where people will stay on their way to their final refuge.


Time is getting close for going to your refuges, and people are making their last minute preparations for Mass kits and extra food that will be multiplied. Preparing backpacks with your sacramentals and physical needs as clothing and tents are all things that should be ready before you leave.


Do not be fearful of this time because My angels will protect you by making you invisible to those who want to kill you. Pray for strength and courage during the tribulation, but know I am by your side ready to provide for all of your needs."


July 10, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, many are apprehensive of how they will make it through the tribulation time. I want to reassure My faithful that these events will be in your lifetime. I will also put shields of invisible protection all around you.


This trial will be brief, but your reward in My Era of Peace will be well worth the struggle to remain faithful to Me and avoid any chips in the body. Pray for your spiritual strength and trust in My angel power, and soon you will be sharing in My victory over all of the evil ones."


December 27, 2004:


Jesus said: "My people, this vision of an invisible building, including the people inside, is an example of how miraculously I will protect My faithful at the refuges. I will perform the impossible for your protection so the evil ones will not be able to detect you by sight, by radar, by heat, or smell. I will also provide for your water, bread, and meat.


The healing water will heal all of your sicknesses and you will be protected also from viruses, poisons, or bombs.


Be grateful that I will take care of My faithful, but do not complain of your lack of comforts and possessions because they are being stripped for your spiritual protection.


It is not necessary to go to My refuges until the time when I will warn you to go. I told you the three signs of world famine, division in My Church, and forced chips in the body. The Antichrist will not have his reign until I will allow it.


You are seeing the signs of destruction foretold in My Scriptures of the end times. Trust in Me and call on My help and everything will be provided for you. There will be some that will be martyred for their faith as an example for the rest.


But do not be intimidated by those trying to force the mark of the beast on you. Those, who are not martyrs, will find protection at My refuges. Be patient for a time of testing before I will return to defeat the evil ones and I will renew the earth with My Era of Peace."


November 4, 2005:


Jesus said: "My people, beware of looking at or listening to the Antichrist, or the Beast of Revelation. He will have demonic powers to attract you to his words which are all lies. Many come to stadiums to watch baseball games, football games, or soccer games. The Antichrist will attract the worldly to come and listen to his words of peace.


This is why I want My people to avoid the Antichrist by getting rid of your televisions after the Warning so you do not look at his eyes which could deceive you. After the signs of the world famine, the division in My Church, and the forcing of microchips in the body, I will have My guardian angels lead you to My places of protection at My refuges. There My angels will provide for your food, water, and shelter.


Those, who look upon My luminous cross, will be healed of all viruses and diseases that the Antichrist will try to bring upon you. You will be invisible to the evil ones and protected from all of their weapons.


These messages of warning are not meant to frighten you, but to show you the miraculous power of the hand of God. Just as I protected the Israelites from the Egyptian Army, so I will protect My faithful remnant with a shield of grace that the evil ones will not be able to defy Me.


Instead, I will cast the Antichrist and all the demons and evil ones into the fires of hell where they will be chained for a long time. Trust in My greater power and you will see the earth renewed as I will bring about a New Jerusalem in the new earth and new heavens. Rejoice because as you see the evil ones gain in power, you know that My victory over all evil is near." vApril 23, 2007:


Jesus said: "My people, I am showing you one of the detention death camps that will be used for public executions and gassing for those meant to be killed. The red lights are for those religious and patriots that are captured before martial law starts. The blue lights are for those who will not follow the new world order after martial law is declared. The one world people want to make slaves out of their subjects for financial gain.


They will use fear tactics of performing public executions for those who will not obey their rules of taking chips in the body. These embedded chips in the body will be used to control people's minds as robots. It will be at this time that I will lead My faithful to refuges of protection. My angels will protect you from the evil ones by making you appear invisible.


My angels will do all of the fighting for you with superior spiritual weapons. There will be a battle between the good and the bad at Armageddon at the time of the Antichrist's brief reign.


Trust in Me and you will see My victory over the evil ones. I love you all, but this evil will be used to test your faith during an earthly purgatory."


May 15, 2007:


Jesus said: "My people, as the time to go to My refuges draws close, I am reminding you of all the miracles that I will perform for you at My refuges. This vision of an outline of more floors being added on to an existing dwelling is how I will multiply more dwellings for everyone to have a shelter. The invisible nature of these dwellings is so that the evil ones will not be able to see you or detect you at My refuges.


These added structures are where there is little room to expand. Where there is more land, I will multiply buildings all over the land. Do not have any fear of the evil ones. I will protect your souls with My angels, and your bodies by My angel power which is greater than any power of the demons.


Pray for your deliverance in this brief hour of evil so you are not martyred in the trial of the tribulation. Some will be martyred for their faith, but they will become instant saints."


May 30, 2007:


Jesus said: "My people, these flashing scenes all over represent the rapid pace of events that will lead up to the time of the Antichrist, followed by My victory and the new Era of Peace.


The one world people have all of their plans in place for a martial law takeover with all of their detention centers ready to hold the religious and patriot prisoners that will not go along with the evil ones' new world order. Executive orders are edicts from the Presidents that will become law when a trumped up national emergency will be declared.


These laws will supersede your constitutional rights and freedoms as a new dictatorship will emerge that will bring about a North American Union. These evil leaders will try to force you to take mandatory chips in the body, but My people will leave for their refuges when they see this national emergency declared. vCall on Me and your guardian angels to lead you to the nearest refuge at My Blessed Mother's apparition sites, places of holy ground, or caves in the mountains. You will be invisible at My refuges and I will provide for all of your needs.


Have no fear of these events when the Antichrist will have his hour, for I will protect you with My angels. Do not take any microchips in the body, and do not worship the Antichrist. Even if they take all of your possessions and threaten to kill you, refuse to give up your faith for any reason.


This trial of the tribulation will be very difficult as you will be suffering your purgatory on earth. Have patience before I come and establish My power over the evil ones, and replace this world with a new heavens and a new earth."


July 31, 2007:


Jesus said: "My people, during the coming tribulation, there will be many places of protection to hide from the evil ones. Some refuges will be at My Blessed Mother's places of apparition. Some will be at places of holy ground as at monasteries.


Some will be at these caves, even as you are seeing in the vision. Do not limit what I will do for you in your earthly understanding, because I will be doing impossible things for you. My angels will actually dig out caves for you, even through the rock of the mountains.


They will make ventilation holes for air and light, and you will be provided food and water. Be ready to leave for My refuges at a moment's notice because your hasty leaving may mean whether you are captured or not.


At the refuges and on the way to My refuges the evil ones will not be able to see you, as you will appear invisible to them. Pray for My help at that time and My angels will lead you."


June 19, 2007:


Jesus said: "My people, I love all of you as I rush into your souls at Communion time. This vision in the attic is where many will be hiding during the tribulation as you move from house to house at interim refuges on your way to your final refuge. It is because the evil ones will be trying to kill you, or place chips in your body, that you will be fleeing to My refuges of protection.


When I come to free you and place your captors into hell, this is when the floor of the attic will disappear and you will be able to see all the faithful. At the refuges you will be invisible to the evil ones, but visible to each other. Have no fear of these evil times for My angels will guide you and protect you."


July 11, 2007:


Jesus said: "My people, I have told you before that My faithful will be invisible at My refuges from anyone trying to harm you. This large rock wall is what they will see and it will be impervious to any means of detection such as microwaves, infra-red, or any other human sensors.


Be grateful that My angels will protect you from any physical or evil force. All of your necessities as food, water, clothing, and shelter will be provided for you. You do not need to know how I will protect you, but I will do the impossible to try and save all of your souls.


When you come to My refuges, you will need to put your full trust in My protection. Just as you trust Me in faith for your spiritual life, so you will have to have faith in My help for your physical life as well."


January 17, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, in the not too distant future the one world people will use their cell towers and satellites to test if every person has a chip on their person. If their readers return a search with No ID found they will single out that person for capture at a detention center.


This is why eventually My people will need to seek out My refuges where My angels will make you invisible to their means of detection. Trust in My power, which is greater than the demons, and I will protect you and provide for your needs."


April 24, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, as you first are led to your refuges of protection, you will be awed to see this tall angel who will be protecting each refuge. This angel will make you invisible to all of man's means of detection.


The angel will protect you from all of the evil demons and evil people who are trying to kill you. As you look upon the luminous cross or drink from the miraculous healing spring, you will be healed of all diseases and infirmities. Give praise to God for your protection and healing."


May 15, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, pray for the conversion of poor sinners, especially after the Warning. You will need My angels of protection to fight the battle against the evil ones in the coming tribulation. My angels will make you invisible from the evil ones at My refuges. Call on My help and trust in My protection when you face this battle of evil that you have never seen before."

 


July 31, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, I have given you many messages about making preparations to leave your house for a safe haven refuge. Those, who leave their homes before martial law is declared, have a better chance of being protected at My refuges. Call on Me at the time that I will tell you, and your guardian angel will lead you with a physical sign to the nearest place of refuge.


They will make you invisible so you would not be captured. Those, who purposely stay in their homes after martial law, are risking the men in black who will come and take you off to the death camps. Follow My directions if you wish to be alive at My refuges." End of messaqes.

"The graces of My mercy are drawn by means of one vessel only, and that is - trust. The more a soul trusts, the more it will receive. Souls that trust boundlessly are a great comfort to Me, because I pour all the treasures of My graces into them. I rejoice that they ask for much, because it is My desire to give much, very much. On the other hand, I am sad when souls ask for little, when they narrow their hearts." (Jesus to St. Faustina #1578)

THE WONDROUS WORKS OF GOD


My little one, I give My people all the wonders of the world, the morning dew, the chirping birds, the freshness of spring flower blossoms. I desire My people to recognize the beauty and wonders of the earth.


Give thanks to God the Father for His love and His creation. Do not take for granted the beauty and simplicity, yet the greatness of the earth's wonders. Open your ears to hear the beauty of life. Open your eyes to see His creation of life. vOpen your hearts to receive His love and to know His sweetness and His truth. How My Father works in the little small things, the little ones who are dependent on His love.


Have you ever pondered the wondrous works of God? He is so powerful. He desires you to be His glorious people, yet He has no need for you. He has made you little less than a god because of His love for you. You merit nothing at the works of your own hands. Everything is given to you as a gift from Him.


Give praise O' children of Israel to the Father of Mercy whose goodness surpasses all knowledge. Be dependent on Him like little children. He will hold you tight to His loving breast and will protect you against all enemies of hatred.


Come to God the Father. His works are awesome and true. His Name is wonderful. He has crowned Me with glory and honor. God the Father is great. He gives life and brings death. He brings healing to many and He inflicts injury on many. He decrees what is necessary to bring the soul to perfection in His love. All His works are wondrous, a sight for the eyes to behold in adoration. Blessed be God the Father! He has given you Me. He is Light without falsehood. In the truth of His love He confounds the devil and destroys his lie so His people can follow the path to His gates of heaven.


Open your hearts My people. Do not follow the father of falsehood, the father of lies. It only leads to the road of damnation. Follow Truth, Love and Peace, the road to heaven. Your safety and security rests in God alone. I love you My people. Come, open your hearts. Seek the Light of Eternal Truth. God refreshes the weary and rewards good deeds of love. Take delight in God. He awaits your love. Peace.


AD DEUM.

 


End of Lesson #9


Volume V Lesson #8


In private chapel at home


March 18, 1995

 


THE IDOLATRY OF SELF My little one, I await the love of My people, but it is conditional. I desire all to come to Me not only during times of need of earthly comfort. So many of My people cannot find the time to rest in My presence of love even for fifteen minutes a day. Their self-interest supercedes the graces which I would like to bestow on them. I desire to care for all My people, and I desire them to come and be with their Friend, their Lover, their Savior. They do not desire to be with Me. They desire instead to nourish their carnal desires over the delights of eternal wisdom, freedom and joy. And so through their free will they limit and obstruct the flow of My grace upon them.


I came to save the sinner, but My people think they have not sinned and do not need God. They have made idols of themselves. Anything which is good within them they display and brag outwardly in self-love. They do not see that all good things come from Me and Me alone, not through their own merit. They consider themselves perfect and in need of no change. Any vice of their flesh is excused. Yet they are impatient with anyone who does not show them respect or honor. They are proud and lack faith. They do not love God and they do not love their countrymen. They thrive on the misfortunes of their enemies.


They are full of pride and self-love. Their lack of faith is due to their negligence in seeking the knowledge of God in truth and in humility. A lack of faith is a lack of conviction about the truth of My sweetness. They do not desire an intimate or personal relationship with Me. They do not desire a deep living faith which surpasses all knowledge.


All their intentions stem from self-interest, comfort, and praise about which they boast deceitfully. What state could be more sinful? Yet they think they are not sinners and do not need salvation. This carelessness will result in their own judgment in due season. If they will not heed My Word and allow My mercy to change their strong hearts to repentant hearts, their own judgment standards will toss them into the abyss of eternal flames which will consume their souls in everlasting agony and misery.


My Way is simple, however difficult many might conjecture it to be. I have said many times that I desire to be your Friend. I desire to give you many blessings and fruits from My kingdom. But fear of the unknown and lack of control make it too risky for My people. They do not trust because of their lack of faith. I would deepen their faith, O' if they would allow Me into their hearts. So they do not believe in the Word. If they do not believe, they cannot love, for I am Love.


Peace cannot exist unless there is love. How, little one, would you have Me respond to My people who continue to live in a most sinful state? If they continue to transgress My obedience imposed on them, they will become My enemies instead of My people. I redeemed My people through My Blood and restored the life of grace, but they are not grateful.


They are obliged to render Me praise and glory. If they continue to deprive Me of glory and continue to claim their glory, the greater will be their offence. For they are not allowing Me to be their God of Mercy.


You restrain Me, little one and all those My beloved ones who seek to love, to serve unconditionally and to appease Me by your tears which bind the punishment of offences through Divine Justice. When you pray for others, My mercy can unfold and the humility of your tears can mitigate the fury of My Father's wrath. Look then to Me for knowledge and truth. Look to Me for fulfillment. I love My people and desire to save their souls which, if left to the hands of mankind alone, will surely die. Pray, little one, for mercy in this world.

PRAYER: The Tool of Intimacy


My dear little one, the grace of My Father is shed from His love for you and in His desire for you to be fulfilled in His love. I want all to come to Me in simplicity, seeking a deeper union with Me through prayer. Prayer elevates the mind, heart and soul into the abyss of truth: truth of self-knowledge, truth in humility, truth in obedience, and truth of knowledge of your Savior.


My Father bestows His blessing of grace for prayer. All I desire from My people is to have an intimate relationship with them. I desire for them to come to Me in solicitude and submissiveness. I desire them to come before Me even in their compunction of sin. I just want My people to spend time with Me, to be with Me, to share with Me all their concerns, joys, sorrows and challenges. I desire to be asked for guidance. I desire to be their closest friend. It is through the grace of prayer from My Father that this is possible.


Prayer is the vessel through which love is purified and perfected. It is the tool of intimacy. Take time to listen to My silence. You will find in focusing on Me and listening to My words of love in silence that the business of your thoughts will be tempered in My love. You will find the joy and depth of knowing love through knowledge of yourself. You will know TRUTH. Through continual prayer you will gain the grace of every virtue.


It is good to exercise mental prayer in addition to vocal prayer. Meditate and ponder the mystery of love. Pondering My love and My life will give rise to joy in the soul. Prayer removes vice, and vice blinds My people. When your heart is dedicated to My love, it is also dedicated to yourself; for My glory is also yours. Love Me with all your heart and you will be inseparable from Me. When I am adored, you too are honored.


Little one, desire what I desire. Give heed to My grace and respond to My inspirations through prayer. I love you and all My people. I desire to give to all the fruits of truth, love and hope. I am your Savior. I desire to help My loved ones; but they desire not My help, for they continue to place restrictions on their lives by distancing themselves from Me and through their lack of prayer. If you struggle with prayer, ask Me for the grace and I shall come to you. Invite Me to be in your life. I love you and desire you to receive abundantly. Peace, little one. Peace.


AD DEUM.

FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE


"Remember I love you"


Sunday, August 24, 2008


Dear Friends,


"At a time when you did not know God, you became slaves to things that by nature are not gods; but now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and destitute elemental powers? Do you want to be slaves to them all over again? You are observing days, months, season and years."


Galatians 4: 8 - 10


We had another hot and sunny day yesterday with the temperature close to 30 degrees Celsius. In the evening it became cool and it was just right for sleeping. We should have another hot day today and sunny.


I present you another message of Our Lord, Jesus, given to Joseph. The Lord spoke to him these words, "As Saint Paul wrote in his letters, those who came to believe in Me and followed Me came out of the darkness and paganism and entered My Kingdom, the Kingdom of light. They found the freedom that I gave them but why did some want to go back to the slavery they were in before their conversion?


The same phenomenon is happening today with so many going back to the darkness of the past. Anyone who enters New Age and practices reiki and all the others things taught by New Age is in fact entering the paganism that existed when I was on earth.


These things cannot save you but they destroy your faith in Me with the result that you will be lost. New Age should in fact be called Old Age because it existed in the world even before My coming.


God is not present in New Age because their god is the devil. They use his power to trick many people. They speak about healings through reiki but it is not a true healing because the sickness will come back within weeks and it will be worst than ever.


I am the only one who can make you free. You will no longer be slaves to alcohol, drugs, the devil or any pagan rite. With Me you will become the beloved children of God for whom you were created.


Throw away all your books of New Age, stop all these devilish practices and come home to your God and Saviour. I alone can save you from all this nonsense and bring you with Me one day to the glory of heaven where you are called to live forever. Remember I love you and I invite you to be part of My Church."


Father Melvin


FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE


"Rely on My power to help you"


Saturday, August 23, 2008


Dear Friends,


"You have heard that it was said to your ancestors, 'You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment.' But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment, and whoever says to his brother 'raqa,' will be answerable to the Sanhedrin, and whoever says, 'You fool,' will be liable to fiery Gehenna." Matthew 5: 21 - 22


I will now give you the message Jesus gave to Joseph. Jesus spoke to Joseph these words, "I often spoke about love when I was on earth. In fact the one commandment I gave you is simply 'Love one another as I have loved you.'


One thing that can destroy love is anger, which can lead to hatred. If you are angry with your brother or sister, you will be judged severely. If you use hateful words against anyone and refuse to repent, you will not be saved.


I cannot live in an angry heart because there is no love there. Anger destroys relationships and makes your brother or sister your enemy. It is so easy for one who is angry to have hatred against another. Because of this anger, there will be no peace in your heart and you will feel restless.


This anger might be deeply rooted because you have not dealt with hurts of the past. There are festering wounds in your heart. Any word from another will cause you to blow up and say many unkind words. You need a healing from Me.


Come to Me, My brother or sister, and offer Me all your wounds from the past. I will take all these painful hurts of the past away and fill you with My peace and love. You need to cultivate patience so that you can keep your anger under control. With the healing of your past wounds, you will feel a relief and joy will fill your heart.


I am the great healer who can heal you in body and spirit. Many come to ask for the healing of their bodies but many need the healing of their spirit. I have the power to take away all this darkness and all this pain you have experienced for years. I will fill you with contentment and peace. These are great gifts I give to My friends. Come, believe in Me and rely on My power to help you." Father Melvin

MEDJUGORGE MESSAGES-2007


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 24 - THAT THE SPIRIT MAY DESCEND ON YOU


"O my Mother! I never have a Communion but to thee I owe it. The tabernacle, the pyx, the monstrance—the very beauty of the mystery is that it is thy Jesus, and not another, the Body that was formed from thee, and not a new one, which consecration brings." (Fr. Frederick Faber)


"If we really understand the Eucharist,
If we really centre our lives on Jesus' Body and Blood,
If we nourish our lives with the Bread of the Eucharist,
It will be easy for us to see Christ in that hungry one next door,
The one lying in the gutter,
The alcoholic man we shun,
Our husband or our wife, or our restless child.
For in them, we will recognize the distressing disguises of the poor: Jesus in our midst." (Mother Teresa)


Mother Teresa - Today let us recall the love of God for you and for me. His love is so tender. His love is so great, so real, so living that Jesus came just to teach us that-- how to love.


Padre Pio - God can reject everything in a creature conceived in sin and which bears the indelible impression inherited from Adam. But He absolutely cannot reject the sincere desire to love Him. Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


In your face often belies honesty!


"Psychologically, those who manifestly are shams are generally known through three techniques: first they shake hands with you up to the elbow, and they thrust their face against your nose with a smile which seems to say, `See how nice I am,' or they shout out their greetings in tones calculated to make volume substitute for honesty."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Then I heard the following words spoken thus: I want you to be My spouse. Fear pierced my soul, but I calmly continued to reflect on what sort of an espousal this could be. However, each time fear would invade my soul, a power from on high would give it peace.


After all, I have taken perpetual vows, and I have taken them of my own completely free will. And so I continued to reflect on what this could mean. I sensed, and came to realize, that this was some special kind of grace. Whenever I think about it, I feel faint for God, but in this swooning, my mind is clear and penetrated with light. When I am united to Him, I faint from an abundance of happiness, but my mind is bright and clear and free from all shadows.


You abase Your majesty to dwell with a poor creature. Thank you, O Lord, for this great grace that makes it possible for me to commune with You. Jesus, Your Name is my delight, I have a presentiment of my Beloved from afar, and my languishing soul rests in His embrace; I don't know how to live without Him. I would rather be with Him in afflictions and suffering than without Him in the greatest heavenly delights. (912)


February 19, 1937. Contact with the dying. They ask me for prayer, and I can pray, as the Lord grants me an extraordinary spirit of prayer. I am constantly united with Him, and I am fully aware that I live for souls in order to bring them to Your mercy, O Lord. In this matter, no sacrifice is too insignificant. (971)

Quote of the Day - Philip found Nathaniel and told him, "We have found the one about whom Moses wrote in the law, and also the prophets, Jesus, son of Joseph, from Nazareth." But Nathaniel said to him, "Can anything good come from Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see." Jesus saw Nathaniel coming toward him and said of him, "Here is a true Israelite.


There is no duplicity in him." Nathaniel said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered and said to hi, "Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree." Nathaniel answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel." Jn 1:45-


Prayer is the raising of the mind and heart in adoration, thanksgiving, reparation and petition. Prayer, which is always mental because it involves thought and love of God, may be vocal, meditative, private, and personal, social and official. The official prayer of the Church as a worshiping community is called the liturgy.


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.


AUGUST 24 - THAT THE SPIRIT MAY DESCEND ON YOU


Our Lady addresses Jelena's prayer group:


Why have you stopped saying the prayer to the Holy Spirit? Remember that I have asked you to pray always and at all times that the Holy Spirit may descend upon you. Begin again to pray for this (Locution Jelena & Mirijana Jan 2, 1984).


And in John `s gospel, Christ asks us to drink of the Spirit:


On the last day of the festival, the great day, while Jesus was standing there, he cried out, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me, and let the one who believes in me drink.


As the scripture has said, `Out of the believer's heart shall flow rivers of living water. "Now he said this about the Spirit, which believers in him were to receive; for as yet there was no Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified (Jn 7:37-39).


Reflection:


Today the Blessed Mother calls us to "pray always and at all times so that the Holy Spirit may descend upon you. "Yesterday we began a special prayer to the Spirit. Today, taking Our Lady's advice, let us conclude the Prayer of Invocation to the Holy Spirit:


Eternal Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, and through the intercession of the Immaculate Virgin Mary, send to me your Holy Spirit.


Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of wisdom.
Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of understanding.
Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of counsel.
Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift fortitude.
Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift knowledge.
Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of piety.
Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of fear of the Lord.
Pause. Then three Glory Bes.
Holy Spirit, Eternal Love,
Fountain of heavenly light,
Come, inflame our hearts.


Application:


Thank God for the gifts of the Spirit which you have received. Reflect on how you are using these gifts for the sake of others

THE NEW DAWN OF MY LIGHT


My dear little one, the dawn brings on a new day, a new day filled with My love, goodness, tenderness and gentleness. The dawn is the break from the darkness of the night when the light rises and shines through to brighten the pathway of love and the horizon of freshness, hopes and wonders. There is no more fear of the dark and uncertainty of the future. The dawn brings hope for the tomorrow of My love. The dawn enlightens and unfolds My love today.


It is good, and those who persevere await the moment in hope and confidence. They know the night will end and that with time the dawn will emerge and the light will brighten the sky.


I speak these words so that My people will know that perseverance in hope will bring on the new day of goodness. Good will always prevail and love will always be victorious for all who pray, hope and work for tomorrow. Peace in your duties and faithfulness to your responsibilities will ensure victory in My love.


There will always be challenges but none too difficult nor My yoke too heavy to carry. The harvest is many but the laborers are few. Those who are close to the reign of God and the kingdom of Goodness work diligently interiorly and exteriorly, challenging themselves to grow in My love and mercy, and to be Me.


They know the darkness of the night will pass and they hope in perseverance for the dawn of My light. Change takes time. Gentleness is what is needed to meet the challenges of the new dawn. They know it is most necessary to meet all challenges with love and to move ahead valiantly and with courage. They know they will meet failure and vices of their flesh along their journey.


But they also know that love is the sword which slays these failings and that gentleness of self will assuredly make them victorious in My love. And when the new dawn of My light approaches, it will find them waiting with patience, confidence and hope, having persevered through the night.


I will take these My few laborers and give to them My crown of glory; and they shall help all those who are lost on the way, those who started on the path but became distracted from persevering and stranded themselves in the cloud of confusion. They will be found by my laborers and brought back once again to the pathway of love and will be encouraged to continue on in hope, meeting with courage all obstacles and challenges.


With love, gentleness and perseverance they also will rise above them. Look to the dawn which is sure to rise, the dawn of hope for all who persevere and endure. Peace, little one. Peace to all My people.

Volume V Lesson #12 In private chapel at home May 31, 1995 MY JOY


My dear little one, it is with joy that I come to you and My people. I find joy in My beloved people because I love them. The wonder of love fills those who take joy in all they do and encounter each day; joy, because the will of God unfolds as they fulfill their responsibilities in simpleness. The will of God is revealed as you work, pray, encounter and interact with all people.


Those who work, focusing on the simpleness of My love, find joy. I find joy in My people when I look upon families, marriages, children, single lay people, religious, and all men and women who fulfill their daily duties consecrated to the will of God.


What joy I have when I see two people as husband and wife consecrated to God in love and simpleness praying together. I find joy in My young ones who do their best in their daily chores, studies, play and prayer. I take joy in My little children, pure of heart and innocent, and in all parents who strive in prayer to live in love and harmony in the family.


I find joy in My children who are obedient to their parents in love. The will of God unfolds in all people as they simply remain open, surrendering to love, utilizing all avenues of love which perfect them in holiness. They are filled with joy and peace because they are dedicated to their daily obligations in the littleness and simpleness of My love.


Oh, how I am filled with joy in My people. I take delight in them when they desire to fulfill the will of God. I take delight in My religious who dedicate their lives to proclaiming My truth of love. My priests and My religious suffer tremendously as they refuse to follow deception but remain loyal to My current Vicar your Pope and My Church, regardless of any pressure to do otherwise.


I find joy in all who are dedicated to My truth at all costs and who are consecrated to My Most Sacred Heart and My Mother's Immaculate Heart. The Two Hearts shall reign in victory and the day will come forth when all the world will know of the triumph of the TWO HEARTS.


I love you, my little child, you who hold the keys for all children to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. I love you. I love all My people as I love you. Blessed be God the Father for His unconditional love and kindness which shower graces upon My people. Blessed be His Holy Name.


Find joy in the Father, My beloved ones. He is Love and the Source of Peace. I give you My peace for I give to you all that He has given to Me. Blessings My people in unity and oneness of the Triune God.

LESSONS from Our Lord for the World


Volume V Lesson #ll In private chapel at home April 30, 1995


REJOICE


My little one, peace be with you. I your Lord God bring you peace for I am Peace. I do not wish for My people to be distraught but to be filled with joy in the Lamb of God. REJOICE and be filled with joy! I am with you. My mercy is upon you and I shall not abandon you. Be at peace. Live in My love. Receive My joy. I tell you that not one shall be lost for all are accounted for by My Father.


All My chosen little ones belong to Him. Not one will stray away that My Father will not bring back to Him. Be at peace. Live in charity and love for one another. Rejoice, I am your Lord God, your merciful Savior Only you can deny yourself My glory by not allowing Me to be merciful. But all my people have until their last breath to ask for My mercy.


Very few of My people have joy in their Savior. I desire all to come to Me in praise and rejoicing. I do not desire My people to be filled with sorrow or sadness. As I purify and cleanse My people there are emotions and sentiments of self-pity, sadness and sorrow. vBut I do not want My people to be distraught by these sentiments but instead rejoice, be glad and have hope. The pride must be stripped in order that humility can replace it. It takes time to grow in holiness, charity and love because of human weakness, sinfulness and vices of the flesh. My mercy soothes the pain when My truth lances the flesh of its many vices.


Therefore, rejoice in gratitude that you are loved by Me and that you are being purified in order for you to share eternal glory with Me. I love My people beyond their comprehension. Allow your hearts to rest in My love and in My peace, for I am with you. Trust with confidence in My love. Rejoice when you receive ill-treatment for the sake of My Name. vYou belong to Me. What I have so shall you have. As I have suffered so shall you share in My suffering. Where I am in glory so too shall you share in My glory. Be at peace and rejoice in your Savior's MERCY! Peace to you. AD DEUM.

Volume V Lesson #10 In private chapel at home, March 26, 1995


POISONOUS VENOMS OR REFRESHING WATERS?


My dear little one, My children who perform My works of love and mercy are continually judged falsely and are scandalized by others.


This is because the poisonous venoms of resentment, jealousy and pride continue to seep into the wicked who thrive on self-love. They judge My beloved ones falsely and attempt to spoil the good fruits of charity. How impure are the motives of those who scandalize the virtuous servants of Mine! How this human generation has become blind to its own dignity!


Do you not see that those who are chained to the vices of envy, impatience, jealousy, gossip and hatred, are slaves to sin? They no longer are great but have become small, and are no longer rulers but have become slaves to the prince of darkness. That is why the prince of darkness, Satan, was hurled down from the heavens.


His pride and jealousy caused him to boast in self-righteousness and self-love to the point that he would have no glory shared with any human being. He wanted all for himself. From the poison of envy, pride and jealousy grew an incurable hatred which resulted in death.


Those who do not pay heed to My words of love and mercy are deprived of life because they live to sin.


But I increase the virtues of mercy and charity in My children. Their torments only increase their graces. Those who judge falsely however will live in their own torment, for in the end they will falsely judge their own practices.


They will be in misery for they will not allow My mercy to dwell in them. They will judge their sin to be greater than My mercy and will therefore be eternally tormented. Tell My people My words, little one.


It is not My desire that any one person miss the bridge of life and the refreshing waters from which abundant graces flow. I desire all to live in purity and integrity. Know the truth from the deadly effects of sin. To you, My beloved ones, who strive to live in My humility, love and mercy, be not afraid. Your torments will result in your crown of glory which I will share with you.


All you who are scandalized, take "courage" as your staff (walking stick) in hand and valiantly conquer the evil of envy with love and perseverance in truth. I am with you always and My Kingdom is yours. All I have I give to you. I bless you, My beloved people. Peace. AD DEUM.

MEDJUGORGE MESSAGES


Message of July 25, 2008 "Dear children! At this time when you are thinking of physical rest, I call you to conversion. Pray and work so that your heart yearns for God the Creator who is the true rest of your soul and your body. May He reveal His face to you and may He give you His peace.


I am with you and intercede before God for each of you. Thank you for having responded to my call."

 


English Messages From 2008


Message of January 25, 2008 "Dear children! With the time of Lent, you are approaching a time of grace. Your heart is like ploughed soil and it is ready to receive the fruit which will grow into what is good.


You, little children, are free to choose good or evil. Therefore, I call you to pray and fast. Plant joy and the fruit of joy will grow in your hearts for your good, and others will see it and receive it through your life.


Renounce sin and choose eternal life. I am with you and intercede for you before my Son. Thank you for having responded to my call." 01/2008


Message of February 25, 2008 "Dear children! In this time of grace, I call you anew to prayer and renunciation. May your day be interwoven with little ardent prayers for all those who have not come to know God's love. Thank you for having responded to my call." 02/2008


Annual Apparition To Mirjana - March 18, 2008


The visionary Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo had daily apparitions from June 24th 1981 to December 25th 1982. During the last daily apparition, Our Lady gave her the 10th secret, and told her that she would appear to her once a year, on the 18th of March. It has been this way through the years.


This year several thousand pilgrims gathered to pray the Rosary at the Cenacolo Community in Medjugorje. The apparition lasted from 14:01 to 14:08.


Mirjana transmitted the following:


I have never seen Our Lady address us in this manner. She extended her hands towards us and with her hands extended in this way, she said:


"Dear children, today I extend my hands towards you. Do not be afraid to accept them. They desire to give you love and peace and to help you in salvation. Therefore, my children, receive them. Fill my heart with joy and I will lead you towards holiness.


The way on which I lead you is difficult and full of temptations and falls. I will be with you and my hands will hold you. Be persevering so that, at the end of the way, we can all together, in joy and love, hold the hands of my Son. Come with me; fear not. Thank you."


Message of March 25, 2008 "Dear children! I call you to work on your personal conversion. You are still far from meeting with God in your heart.


Therefore, spend all the more time in prayer and Adoration of Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar, for Him to change you and to put into your hearts a living faith and a desire for eternal life.


Everything is passing, little children, only God is not passing. I am with you and I encourage you with love. Thank you for having responded to my call." 03/2008


Message of April 25, 2008 "Dear children! Also today, I call all of you to grow in God's love as a flower which feels the warm rays of spring. In this way, also you, little children, grow in God's love and carry it to all those who are far from God.


Seek God's will and do good to those whom God has put on your way, and be light and joy. Thank you for having responded to my call." 04/2008


Message of May 25, 2008 "Dear children! In this time of grace, when God has permitted me to be with you, little children, I call you anew to conversion. Work on the salvation of the world in a special way while I am with you.


God is merciful and gives special graces, therefore, seek them through prayer. I am with you and do not leave you alone. Thank you for having responded to my call." 05/2008


Message of June 25, 2008 "Dear children! Also today, with great joy in my heart, I call you to follow me and to listen to my messages.


Be joyful carriers of peace and love in this peaceless world. I am with you and I bless you all with my Son Jesus, the King of Peace. Thank you for having responded to my call." 06/2008


ANNUAL APPARITION TO THE VISIONARY IVANKA


The visionary Ivanka Ivankovic-Elez had her regular annual apparition on June 25th 2008. According to the visionaries, Vicka, Marija and Ivan continue to have daily apparitions, and Mirjana, Ivanka and Jakov have an annual apparition.


At Her last daily apparition on May 7, 1985, Our Lady confided to Ivanka the 10th secret and told her that she would have an apparition once a year on the anniversary of the apparitions.


It was that way also this year. The apparition lasted 6 minutes. Ivanka had the apparition at home in the presence of her family, her husband and her three children. After the apparition, the visionary Ivanka said:


"Our Lady spoke to me about the ninth secret. She gave us Her motherly blessing."


Message of July 25, 2008 "Dear children! At this time when you are thinking of physical rest, I call you to conversion. Pray and work so that your heart yearns for God the Creator who is the true rest of your soul and your body.


May He reveal His face to you and may He give you His peace. I am with you and intercede before God for each of you. Thank you for having responded to my call." 07/2008


Message of January 25, 2007 "Dear children! Put Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your family and read it. In this way, you will come to know prayer with the heart and your thoughts will be on God. Do not forget that you are passing like a flower in a field, which is visible from afar but disappears in a moment.


Little children, leave a sign of goodness and love wherever you pass and God will bless you with an abundance of His blessing. Thank you for having responded to my call." 01/2007


Message of February 25, 2007 "Dear children! Open your heart to God’s mercy in this Lenten time. The Heavenly Father desires to deliver each of you from the slavery of sin. Therefore, little children, make good use of this time and through meeting with God in confession, leave sin and decide for holiness. Do this out of love for Jesus, who redeemed you all with His blood, that you may be happy and in peace.


Do not forget, little children: your freedom is your weakness, therefore follow my messages with seriousness. Thank you for having responded to my call." 02/2007


The Annual Apparition Of Our Lady To Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo On March 18, 2007


The visionary Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo had daily apparitions from June 24th 1981 to December 25th 1982. During the last daily apparition, Our Lady gave her the 10th secret, and told her that she would appear to her once a year, on the 18th of March. It has been this way through the years.


This year several thousand pilgrims gathered to pray the Rosary at the Cenacolo Community in Medjugorje. The apparition lasted from 14:07 to 14:12 and Our Lady gave the following message:


"Dear children! I come to you as a Mother with gifts. I come with love and mercy. Dear children, mine is a big heart. In it, I desire all of your hearts, purified by fasting and prayer. I desire that, through love, our hearts may triumph together. I desire that through that triumph you may see the real Truth, the real Way and the real Life. I desire that you may see my Son. Thank you."


Our Lady blessed all of us and all religious articles. Again She emphasized that it is only Her Motherly blessing and She asked for daily prayers for those whom She said «my Son has chosen and blessed». Mirjana clarified that she thought Our Lady was referring to priests.


Message of March 25, 2007 "Dear children! I desire to thank you from my heart for your Lenten renunciations. I desire to inspire you to continue to live fasting with an open heart.


By fasting and renunciation, little children, you will be stronger in faith. In God you will find true peace through daily prayer. I am with you and I am not tired. I desire to take you all with me to Heaven, therefore, decide daily for holiness. Thank you for having responded to my call." 03/2007


Message of April 25, 2007 "Dear children! Also today I again call you to conversion. Open your hearts. This is a time of grace while I am with you, make good use of it.


Say: 'This is the time for my soul'. I am with you and love you with immeasurable love. Thank you for having responded to my call." 04/2007


Message of May 25, 2007 "Dear children! Pray with me to the Holy Spirit for Him to lead you in the search of God’s will on the way of your holiness. And you, who are far from prayer, convert and, in the silence of your heart, seek salvation for your soul and nurture it with prayer. I bless you all individually with my motherly blessing. Thank you for having responded to my call." 05/2007


Message of June 25, 2007 "Dear children! Also today, with great joy in my heart, I call you to conversion. Little children, do not forget that you are all important in this great plan, which God leads through Medjugorje. God desires to convert the entire world and to call it to salvation and to the way towards Himself, who is the beginning and the end of every being.


In a special way, little children, from the depth of my heart, I call you all to open yourselves to this great grace that God gives you through my presence here. I desire to thank each of you for the sacrifices and prayers. I am with you and I bless you all. Thank you for having responded to my call." 06/2007


Annual Apparition of Our Lady to Ivanka On June 25, 2007


The visionary Ivanka Ivankovic-Elez had her regular annual apparition on June 25th 2007. According to the visionaries, Vicka, Marija and Ivan continue to have daily apparitions, and Mirjana, Ivanka and Jakov have an annual apparition.


At Her last daily apparition on May 7, 1985, Our Lady confided to Ivanka the 10th secret and told her that she would have an apparition once a year on the anniversary of the apparitions. It was that way also this year. The apparition lasted 17 minutes. Ivanka had the apparition at home in the presence of her family, her husband and her three children.


After the apparition, the visionary Ivanka said: “Our Lady remained with me for 17 minutes. She was joyful and spoke to me about Her life. Our Lady said: ‘Dear children, receive my motherly blessing.’"


Message of July 25, 2007 "Dear children! Today, on the day of the Patron of your Parish, I call you to imitate the lives of the Saints. May they be, for you, an example and encouragement to a life of holiness. May prayer for you be like the air you breathe in and not a burden. Little children,


God will reveal His love to you and you will experience the joy that you are my beloved. God will bless you and give you an abundance of grace. Thank you for having responded to my call." 07/2007

 


Message of August 25, 2007 "Dear children! Also today I call you to conversion. May your life, little children, be a reflection of God’s goodness and not of hatred and unfaithfulness. Pray, little children, that prayer may become life for you. In this way, in your life you will discover the peace and joy which God gives to those who have an open heart to His love.


And you who are far from God’s mercy, convert so that God may not become deaf to your prayers and that it may not be too late for you. Therefore, in this time of grace, convert and put God in the first place in your life. Thank you for having responded to my call." 08/2007


Message of September 25, 2007 "Dear children! Also today I call all of you for your hearts to blaze with more ardent love for the Crucified, and do not forget that, out of love for you, He gave His life so that you may be saved. Little children, meditate and pray that your heart may be open to God’s love. Thank you for having responded to my call." 09/2007


Message of October 25, 2007 "Dear children! God sent me among you out of love that I may lead you towards the way of salvation. Many of you opened your hearts and accepted my messages, but many have become lost on this way and have never come to know the God of love with the fullness of heart.


Therefore, I call you to be love and light where there is darkness and sin. I am with you and bless you all. Thank you for having responded to my call." 10/2007


Message of November 25, 2007 "Dear children! Today, when you celebrate Christ, the King of all that is created, I desire for Him to be the King of your lives. Only through giving, little children, can you comprehend the gift of Jesus´ sacrifice on the Cross for each of you.


Little children, give time to God that He may transform you and fill you with His grace, so that you may be a grace for others. For you, little children, I am a gift of grace and love, which comes from God for this peaceless world. Thank you for having responded to my call." 11/2007


Message of December 25, 2007"Dear children! With great joy I bring you the King of Peace for Him to bless you with His blessing. Adore Him and give time to the Creator for whom your heart yearns.


Do not forget that you are passers-by on this earth and that things can give you small joys, while through my Son, eternal life is given to you. That is why I am with you, to lead you towards what your heart yearns for. Thank you for having responded to my call." 12/2007


ANNUAL APPARITION TO JAKOV ON DECEMBER 25TH 2007 At the last daily apparition to Jakov Colo on September 12th, 1998, Our Lady told him that henceforth he would have one apparition a year, every December 25th, on Christmas Day.


This is also how it was this year. The apparition began at 2:29 pm and lasted 6 minutes. Our Lady gave the following message:


"Dear children! Today, in a special way I call you to become open to God and for each of your hearts today to become a place of Jesus' birth. Little children, through all this time that God permits me to be with you, I desire to lead you to the joy of your life.


Little children, the only true joy of your life is God. Therefore, dear children, do not seek joy in things of this earth but open your hearts and accept God. Little children, everything passes, only God remains in your heart. Thank you for having responded to my call."


FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE


"Rely on My power to help you"


Saturday, August 23, 2008


Dear Friends,


"You have heard that it was said to your ancestors, 'You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment.' But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment, and whoever says to his brother 'raqa,' will be answerable to the Sanhedrin, and whoever says, 'You fool,' will be liable to fiery Gehenna." Matthew 5: 21 - 22

 


Tomorrow, Sunday, I will go to Bouctouche, New Brunswick, for a Healing Mass and I will be back on Monday afternoon. There will be no message on Monday.


I will now give you the message Jesus gave to Joseph. Jesus spoke to Joseph these words, "I often spoke about love when I was on earth. In fact the one commandment I gave you is simply 'Love one another as I have loved you.'


One thing that can destroy love is anger, which can lead to hatred. If you are angry with your brother or sister, you will be judged severely. If you use hateful words against anyone and refuse to repent, you will not be saved.


I cannot live in an angry heart because there is no love there. Anger destroys relationships and makes your brother or sister your enemy. It is so easy for one who is angry to have hatred against another. Because of this anger, there will be no peace in your heart and you will feel restless.


This anger might be deeply rooted because you have not dealt with hurts of the past. There are festering wounds in your heart. Any word from another will cause you to blow up and say many unkind words. You need a healing from Me.


Come to Me, My brother or sister, and offer Me all your wounds from the past. I will take all these painful hurts of the past away and fill you with My peace and love.


You need to cultivate patience so that you can keep your anger under control. With the healing of your past wounds, you will feel a relief and joy will fill your heart.


I am the great healer who can heal you in body and spirit. Many come to ask for the healing of their bodies but many need the healing of their spirit. I have the power to take away all this darkness and all this pain you have experienced for years.


I will fill you with contentment and peace. These are great gifts I give to My friends. Come, believe in Me and rely on My power to help you."


Father Melvin

Fr Doucette - "If you are part of My people, you will be for life" - Thu, Aug 21, 2008


FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE


"If you are part of My people, you will be for life"


Thursday, August 21, 2008


Dear Friends,


When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?


For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.


This is another message of Jesus addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him saying, The visit of My Dear Mother to her cousin Elizabeth was a great event. Both women were pregnant. My Mother was carrying Me and I had been conceived hardly a week before and Elizabeth was carrying John the Baptist and she was in her sixth month.


John the Baptist leaped in his mother's womb as he recognized My presence although I was just conceived. Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied concerning My Mother and Myself.


This event shows that there is a human being in the womb from the time of conception. If anyone aborts a child no matter at what time of gestation, that person kills a human being. Every child that is conceived has the right to life. This is the greatest right that human beings have and no one has the right to take that away from the unborn.


Abortion goes directly against the commandment of God: Thou shall not kill. Today millions of unborn children are killed by abortion and all these children cry to heaven to avenge their murder. These poor weak children are to be protected and not killed. This is an abomination, which offends the Father terribly.


My people, if you love Me, you will do everything possible to stop the killing of the innocents. First, you must pray for an end to abortion in your country and throughout the world. Never vote for someone who supports abortion or give any money to any group who promotes such diabolical acts. If you are part of My people, you will be for life.

Fr Doucette - "Love your Mother" - Fri, Aug 22, 2008


FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE


"Love your Mother"


Friday, August 22, 2008


Dear Friends,


A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was with child and wailed aloud in pain as she labored to give birth. Revelation 12: 1 2

 


I will be in New Brunswick on Sunday and I will come back on Monday evening. Father Nicholas is to come back on Monday or Tuesday from Maine.


Here are the words Jesus addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to Joseph saying, My Blessed Mother is the Queen of heaven and earth as She was described in the book of Revelation. She is clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and a crown of twelve stars on Her head.


She is My Mother and My Father protected Her in giving birth to Me and in caring for Me. The evil one tried to conquer Her but he did not succeed. In fact I defeated him with My Mother at My side.


My Mother was able to bring about the defeat of Satan because of My power. With My Mother at My side, I broke the power of Satan and brought many people from his kingdom of darkness into My Kingdom of light and I brought this about by the suffering of My Passion and My death on the cross.


My Mother stood at the foot of the cross as I endured the crucifixion and She saw Me in great suffering until My death. A sword pierced Her heart as She stood there seeing me die in great pain.


My Mother is now in heaven in body and soul and the Father has crowned Her as the Queen of heaven and earth. I, Jesus, gave Her to you as your Mother and She works unceasingly in heaven to bring you all to Me, Her Son and Your Saviour. Honor Her as your Mother who always intercedes for you. She loves you and wants the salvation of every one of Her children. Love your Mother with all your heart and pray the rosary regularly.


Accept Her messages addressed to you calling you to repentance for your sins, to believe in Me, Your Redeemer, to pray regularly and to go to the Eucharistic Celebration as often as you can.


You are asked to go to Church every Sunday and during the week if it is possible. Listen to Her and She will bring you to Me and I will show you the way to salvation.


Father Melvin

FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE


"If you are part of My people, you will be for life"


Thursday, August 21, 2008


Dear Friends,


"When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, 'Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?


For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.'"


A smaller group attended but the prayer was powerful. Today I will celebrate Holy Mass at a private home and I will bless the home. I will go to Bouctouche on Sunday and I will celebrate a Healing Mass at the Maury Farm at 7:00 p.m. I will come home the next day, Monday.


This is another message of Jesus addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him saying, "The visit of My Dear Mother to her cousin Elizabeth was a great event. Both women were pregnant.


My Mother was carrying Me and I had been conceived hardly a week before and Elizabeth was carrying John the Baptist and she was in her sixth month. John the Baptist leaped in his mother's womb as he recognized My presence although I was just conceived. Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied concerning My Mother and Myself.


This event shows that there is a human being in the womb from the time of conception. If anyone aborts a child no matter at what time of gestation, that person kills a human being. Every child that is conceived has the right to life. This is the greatest right that human beings have and no one has the right to take that away from the unborn.


Abortion goes directly against the commandment of God: Thou shall not kill. Today millions of unborn children are killed by abortion and all these children cry to heaven to avenge their murder. These poor weak children are to be protected and not killed. This is an abomination, which offends the Father terribly.


My people, if you love Me, you will do everything possible to stop the killing of the innocents. First, you must pray for an end to abortion in your country and throughout the world. Never vote for someone who supports abortion or give any money to any group who promotes such diabolical acts. If you are part of My people, you will be for life.

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 22 - THE QUEENSHIP OF MARY St. Rose of Lima: We can go to Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament and know that He is our best friend! One day a band of pirates went to attack the village of St. Rose of Lima, in Peru, South America.


They were going to destroy the Church where Jesus was present in the Holy Eucharist. St. Rose loved her friend Jesus in the Sacred Host and did not want these mean men to hurt Him.


Often she visited Jesus, in the church, and talked to Him. Little Rose ran to the church and stood before the tabernacle (the little gold house, behind the altar, where Jesus in the Eucharist is reserved). She would not let the pirates get to Jesus, she was ready to die before letting them hurt Him!


When the village people saw how brave she was they stood with her and prevented the pirates from attacking Jesus! In addition to this act of heroic bravery, she started Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration at the Churches throughout her village. (From the book Adoration for Children, available through us) Regina caelorum, in both Latin and English. It is suggested that this anthem be used at the end of Night Prayer tonight because of the way it highlights Mary's role as Queen. Ave, Regina caelorum,
ave Domina angelorum
salve, radix, salve, porta,
ex qua mundo lux est orta.
Gaude, Virgo gloriosa,
super omnes speciosa;
vale, o valde decora,
et pro nobis Christum exora.
Hail O queen of heaven enthroned!
Hail, by angels mistress owned!
Root of Jesse! Gate of morn,

Whence the world's true Light was born:
Glorious Virgin, joy to thee,
Beautiful surpassingly!
Fairest thou where all are fair!
-Translation from "Blessed Sacrament Book" copyright 1913


Mother Teresa - We must know that we have been created for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved.


Meditations by Padre Pio - May the Mother of Jesus, and your Mother, always smile on your spirit, obtaining for it, from her Most Holy Son, every heavenly blessing (Epist, IV. p. 142).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Do `Dopes' and Democrats have any semblance here?


"Satellites are just plain dupes or `dopes.' They may not be obedient in action, but they are obedient in thought. They see only what they want to see; they love the limelight which certain causes give them, but are incapable of analyzing an historical situation. They are professional signers; they will put their name to anything that identifies liberty with license.


The devil uses them because they are naive and credulous. They belong to every `politically correct' organization, but like the false fronts waiters wear, they are nothing but stuffed shirts - with a tail which the devil twists to his own good pleasure."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Nothing disturbs my union with the Lord, neither conversation with others nor any duties; even if I am to go about settling very important matters, this does not disturb me. My spirit is with God, and my interior being is filled with God, so I do not look for Him outside myself.


He, the Lord, penetrates my soul just as a ray from the sun penetrates clear glass. When I was enclosed in my mother's womb, I was not so closely united with her as I am with my God. There, it was an unawareness; but here, it is the fullness of reality and the consciousness of union. My visions are purely interior, but the more I understand them, the less I am able to express them in words. (883)


Jesus, give me the strength and wisdom to get through this terrible wilderness, that my heart may bear patiently this longing for You, O my Lord! I always remain in holy amazement when I sense that You are approaching me, You, the Lord of the awesome throne; that You descend to this miserable exile and visit this poor beggar who has nothing but misery! I do not know how to entertain You, my Royal Prince, but You know that I love You with every beat of my heart.


I see how You lower yourself, but nevertheless Your majesty does not diminish in my eyes. I know that You love me with the love of a bridegroom, and that is enough for me. Although we are separated by a great chasm, for You are the Creator and I am Your creature, nevertheless, love alone explains our union. Without it, all is incomprehensible.


Only love makes it possible to understand these incomprehensible intimacies with which You visit me. O Jesus, Your greatness terrifies me, and I would be in constant astonishment and fear, if You yourself did not set me at peace. You make me capable of communing with You before each approach. (885)


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.


AUGUST 22 - THE QUEENSHIP OF MARY


Our Lady speaks of her queenship to Jelena:


I have come to tell the world that God is truth; he exists. True happiness and the fullness of life are in him. I have come here as Queen of Peace to tell the world that peace is necessary for the salvation of the world. In God, one finds true joy form which true peace is derived (Locution Jelena & Mirijana June 16, 1983).


And from a monthly message in 1988: I am your mother and the Queen of Peace. I give you blessings of joy that God may be everything in your life. (Monthly Message July 25, 1988).


From Revelation:


A great portent appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and on her head a crown of twelve stars (Rv 12:1).


Reflection:


The crowning glory of Mary's life was her coronation as Queen of Heaven and Earth. The description of her above from the Book of Revelation has inspired artists and poets for centuries.


As Queen of Heaven, Our Lady continues to direct us to the King. In her message of July 25, 1988, she calls us "to a complete surrender to God." "Everything you do," she says, "and everything you possess, give over to God so that he can take control in your life, as King of all that you possess. "In this way, God can then lead us into the depths of the spiritual life.


Our Lady's own surrender to God, as exemplified by the Annunciation and her presence at the cross, inspires us to imitate her dependence on the Father. This trusting dependence harbors a strength, a courage, and peace that belies any power the world can give.


As St. Paul says, it is through our "weakness" that the power of God himself bursts forth. And so it is that what the world saw as a lowly maiden was, in the reality of God's power, the Queen of Heaven and Earth.


Application:


Today, pray that you may not rely on your own strength and wisdom, but on the Lord's.

Volume V Lesson #18 In Assisi September 11, 1995


MY LITTLE CHILDREN, MY SAINTS


My dear little one, I love My people. I love to be with them. I am the innocent, gentle Son of Man who was betrayed and condemned to death. I in My innocence carried sorrow in My heart for all the world.


The wickedness of the world stood before Me and condemned Me. Yet the world thought it was I who stood in sentence before them. My acceptance of their sentence was so that they would not die. I accepted the sentence of death for them, for all people, that the body might die by the sword but the soul could live forever for all those who believed in Love. The foolish man is one who does not believe in God. For those who do not believe God exists will betray their very selves, and their own wickedness will condemn them.


But for those who believe in My salvation through My victory in death will joyously celebrate and be with their gentle God. The wicked and righteous shall be slain by their very own sword, but the innocent and meek of heart shall live for all eternity. I shall stand by My people always even though many, one by one, have chosen and are choosing to walk away from Me.


Those who desire to remain with Me, I in My infinite wisdom chastise now in order that they will reign with Me and share in My glory. I desire to teach them now and encourage them to be "little" children, little in all ways: actions, thoughts, deeds and speech; little through simplicity and humility of heart.


Do not mistake littleness with lack of power. Littleness is detachment from possessions and is purity of heart.


It is simpleness and the wisdom to avoid the influence of wickedness. Littleness is not associated with the lack of wealth, prestige or success. Those who are little joyfully surrender all their attachments to this world and persevere with endurance. It does not bother them not to have any attachments because they are dependent on Me and are attached to Me.


Initially the surrender of their possessions may involve disheartening feelings along with temptations for the sweet enticements of the world; but as My little ones accept and renew daily their invitation to allow Me to love them, they master their feelings and find that even their feelings are attachments and obstacles to purity and humility of heart. They, with time and perseverance, become little children, pure and joyfully free, yet powerful and full of My heavenly treasures.


O' little one, how I invite all people to share in My great glory as My saints. My saints were little in the world, yet powerful because they chose to master their feelings by surrendering any possession or attachments to the world which might have prevented them from listening to My will and responding. The less the world gave to them, the more they received from Me. I invite all My people to be My little children, My saints. I love all and call all to My Heart.


I wait to see who will answer and respond to My call from heaven above, for those who respond will be My little children, My saints. Bless you, little one, and continue to pray for all people in the world and for peace and unity. AD DEUM.

LESSONS from Our Lord for the World


Volume V Lesson #17


In L'verna, Italy (site where St. Francis received the stigmata) September 10, 1995


THE SILENCE OF THE HEART


My little one, in today's world people do not take the time to reflect on God's goodness in silence. They are busy seeking enticements of the world, and speech is often what becomes their companion over silence. Yet when My people are in need , they briefly come to Me and are quick to ask for graces on behalf of their needs without taking the time for contemplation and prayer in gratitude.


My people speak too much and do not listen with their hearts. How I desire to fill My people with fond joy in their hearts through silence. Those who desire silence and prayer many times struggle because of the many people who violate their silence with disrespect and lack of compassion. I desire My people to take the time to reflect in silence on My love and My will for them.


If My people are too busy to take time to reflect on My love, how can they discern what My will is for them? It is through prayer and contemplation that peace resides in the heart. In peace can you discern the Way of God. Prayer and contemplation allow you to be at peace with yourself, no matter what distractions or confusion surround you.


My people take little time for silent prayer and many do not take any time for silent meditation. Then when confusion and chaos strike, they are not able to find peace within. Consequently, only few of My people are able to know the truth and follow My Way.


Most importantly, I want to speak to My people and fill them with all they desire: the freedom, the peace, the joy, wisdom and happiness of the heart; but they deny themselves and Me by not adhering to My request to pray within the silence of the heart. Confusion and chaos will only continue if no one believes in My Word to reflect in prayer on My will and My love.


How can you live My Word if you do not reflect on it? How can you understand the meaning of My Word and discern it as it pertains to your life and My will for you if you do not respect My gift of silence?


There is a time for speech and a time for silence. I tell you few of My people know the time for silence. When you are able to reflect in silence, you will see there are more speakable words in your heart than those found on your lips.


It is good, little one, that you have come back to My place where I spoke first to you about silence. Now you see there are many people who seek in pilgrimage their needs from Me and who fail to see that one of the greatest gifts of My merciful love is silence of the heart in order that their needs would be fulfilled. I have so many graces to give; and yet, there are so few who truly desire them.


They ask, ask and ask, but do not allow Me to give because My gift to them they choose not to receive. It is not in the format they expect and so they block the truth and light in answer to their request. Pray for their needs. I love My people.


I desire to unite with them more intimately; and yet, I wait for them. I will wait and continue to wait for them because of My great love for them. Simplicity of life and My will for you reside in the silence of your heart! Seek me there and you shall find Me and your joy. Peace to you, little one. My blessings and love. AD DEUM.


End of Lesson #17.


LESSONS from Our Lord for the World Volume V Lesson #16 In Assisi


September 9, 1995


LITTLE CHILDREN OF HOPE


My dear little one, I speak to many of My people awaiting a response of love. I desire for all people to unite and to love and to live in harmony, yet the forces of evil cause division when there is no response in faithfulness to My Word. My love alone sustains all people. Without My love nothing could exist.


My love speaks to all people, but not all have chosen the Way. So I speak to many of My people in different forms, and I await a response in simplicity and faithfulness. Today in this age there is much chaos and confusion because of great division.


The intellect makes a conscious effort to excel in power and control. I am looking for those who desire to be little children and for those who will guard My Word through faithfulness, love in action, and complete satisfaction in surrendering to Divine Providence. Very few of My people have chosen this route, yet My Mother, your Mother of the living, chose this simple little Way and Her power exceeds that of all creatures.


Her consciousness did not gain Her power through Her intellect, but Her unconscious union with the Spirit in love and faithfulness gained Her title of Queenship over mankind. Her feminine simplicity, Her "fiat", and Her fidelity to God were the bonds of unity and bridge of life for all of mankind. In Her resided the purity of all life, and through Her "fiat" came forth salvation for all mankind.


Why do I seek those who are little children in simpleness and yet of little influence? Because they listen and are totally dependent on Me. In their dependency stems a solid mature spiritual character, one different and unique from each other and all people. They march valiantly in the wisdom of silence of the heart, a silence where love dwells and peace resides. The voice of their prayers slays the dragons of evil and those who desire violence and destruction.


I love My little ones and invite all to follow the way of littleness as that of My Mother, so secure in Her fidelity to follow God at all costs without consolation or promises. I desire children of hope, those who will continue to fight the battle through prayer and little ways regardless of the current events of the world. They have hope always, for My little ones have Me.


I do not desire My children to pray and then give up their prayers because they do not see the results they desire. The battle is in the heavens against evil, and much prayer, fidelity to faithfulness, and simplicity in surrendering to God are the powerful tools of victory. Unity is what is needed. Peace is needed. All people need to join in peace and unity. But evil forces chase away those who are weak in prayer.


The time of victory is for God alone to choose. When many of My little children see continual division and brokenness, they begin to doubt whether their prayers are to any avail. Consequently, they stop praying because of their lack of faith and trust in My Word. I do not desire those to surrender prayer because they have not seen the results they desire. Never surrender prayer! Surrender your heart in love for My Word to Me and pray, pray, pray! The battle will be won through prayer and unity. Be persistent hope-filled children.


Have perseverance and hope in your God of love. Do not settle for less. Do not allow your consciousness to convince you to stop praying. Master all feelings through endurance and perseverance. Pray, pray, pray! Remain faithful and hope in My love! Peace, little one. My peace I give to My people. AD DEUM.


End of Lesson #16


LESSONS from Our Lord for the World Volume V Lesson #15 In private chapel at home August 4, 1995


LOVE AS I LOVED, DIE AS I DIED My dear little one, you cannot worry about what will happen tomorrow. You need not focus on anything but what you are to do today or you will experience anxiety and uncertainty. It is good to plan, but do not be consumed with making sure that your plans are fulfilled. Allow God's will to unfold in the midst of your plans. Maintain peace of heart and serenity. You cannot make something happen just as you cannot make someone love you. I cannot make My people love Me.


It is their free will that I have given to them as a gift. No matter how much you try to impress people or prove to them you have changed from your old ways, and no matter how kind you are to them, giving gifts of love, you cannot gain their acceptance or trust. They have free will to choose what and who they desire to love and accept.


That is why I have told you to focus on Me your Lord, nothing more, nothing else, nothing less. You will gain peace and serenity of heart in My love. You will always have My acceptance and My love. You need not prove to Me that you have changed, for I have given you the grace to change. You need not try to impress Me. My love is unconditional, and it is I who bear gifts of love for My people.


People can be very cruel. When they choose their way above God's Way, when they decide not to walk the path of love I have walked before them, they lose sight of truth and reality. They become blinded by the consuming desire to fulfill their quest, and in the process they become very cruel in nature and behavior.


What they define as freedom and the reign of freedom is not the stepping stone to unconditional love, but that of control and manipulation. That is why I continually invite all people to return to God, to love unconditionally and to be merciful. Many of My little ones become targets of pain from the belittling comments and cruel words of others.


They try to give of themselves unconditionally in love and in the process are lashed out at in return for their efforts. These My little ones many times feel abandoned by God, but it is not so. As my little ones turn to Me and refocus once again on My love, they are strengthened and become the pillars of My unconditional love. Step by step they become victorious in the eyes of God and merit the crown of glory. Why must it be so? Because, little one, all who love as I love must die as I died. It was My people who made their fate by their verdict they passed on Me.


They made their own fate by their judgment on Me. Now all who live as I live and desire to share in My glory must die as I died, in love and in humility. Remember, I was victorious in death, and in love of My people I died in order that all might live and share in My reign. I would do it again, for My love for My people surpasses all love.


Those who desire to follow this love must walk the walk, carry their cross and be crucified in My crucifiable love and mercy. Peace this day, little one, as the mysticism of My love unfolds in all its wonders. AD DEUM. End of Lesson #15.


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 Christians. 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.

FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE


"If you are part of My people, you will be for life"


Thursday, August 21, 2008


Dear Friends,


"When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, 'Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?


For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.'"


A smaller group attended but the prayer was powerful. Today I will celebrate Holy Mass at a private home and I will bless the home. I will go to Bouctouche on Sunday and I will celebrate a Healing Mass at the Maury Farm at 7:00 p.m. I will come home the next day, Monday.


This is another message of Jesus addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him saying, "The visit of My Dear Mother to her cousin Elizabeth was a great event. Both women were pregnant.


My Mother was carrying Me and I had been conceived hardly a week before and Elizabeth was carrying John the Baptist and she was in her sixth month. John the Baptist leaped in his mother's womb as he recognized My presence although I was just conceived. Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied concerning My Mother and Myself.


This event shows that there is a human being in the womb from the time of conception. If anyone aborts a child no matter at what time of gestation, that person kills a human being. Every child that is conceived has the right to life. This is the greatest right that human beings have and no one has the right to take that away from the unborn.


Abortion goes directly against the commandment of God: Thou shall not kill. Today millions of unborn children are killed by abortion and all these children cry to heaven to avenge their murder. These poor weak children are to be protected and not killed. This is an abomination, which offends the Father terribly.


My people, if you love Me, you will do everything possible to stop the killing of the innocents. First, you must pray for an end to abortion in your country and throughout the world. Never vote for someone who supports abortion or give any money to any group who promotes such diabolical acts. If you are part of My people, you will be for life.

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 22 - THE QUEENSHIP OF MARY St. Rose of Lima: We can go to Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament and know that He is our best friend! One day a band of pirates went to attack the village of St. Rose of Lima, in Peru, South America.


They were going to destroy the Church where Jesus was present in the Holy Eucharist. St. Rose loved her friend Jesus in the Sacred Host and did not want these mean men to hurt Him.


Often she visited Jesus, in the church, and talked to Him. Little Rose ran to the church and stood before the tabernacle (the little gold house, behind the altar, where Jesus in the Eucharist is reserved). She would not let the pirates get to Jesus, she was ready to die before letting them hurt Him!


When the village people saw how brave she was they stood with her and prevented the pirates from attacking Jesus! In addition to this act of heroic bravery, she started Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration at the Churches throughout her village. (From the book Adoration for Children, available through us) Regina caelorum, in both Latin and English. It is suggested that this anthem be used at the end of Night Prayer tonight because of the way it highlights Mary's role as Queen. Ave, Regina caelorum,
ave Domina angelorum
salve, radix, salve, porta,
ex qua mundo lux est orta.
Gaude, Virgo gloriosa,
super omnes speciosa;
vale, o valde decora,
et pro nobis Christum exora.
Hail O queen of heaven enthroned!
Hail, by angels mistress owned!
Root of Jesse! Gate of morn,

Whence the world's true Light was born:
Glorious Virgin, joy to thee,
Beautiful surpassingly!
Fairest thou where all are fair!
-Translation from "Blessed Sacrament Book" copyright 1913


Mother Teresa - We must know that we have been created for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved.


Meditations by Padre Pio - May the Mother of Jesus, and your Mother, always smile on your spirit, obtaining for it, from her Most Holy Son, every heavenly blessing (Epist, IV. p. 142).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Do `Dopes' and Democrats have any semblance here?


"Satellites are just plain dupes or `dopes.' They may not be obedient in action, but they are obedient in thought. They see only what they want to see; they love the limelight which certain causes give them, but are incapable of analyzing an historical situation. They are professional signers; they will put their name to anything that identifies liberty with license.


The devil uses them because they are naive and credulous. They belong to every `politically correct' organization, but like the false fronts waiters wear, they are nothing but stuffed shirts - with a tail which the devil twists to his own good pleasure."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Nothing disturbs my union with the Lord, neither conversation with others nor any duties; even if I am to go about settling very important matters, this does not disturb me. My spirit is with God, and my interior being is filled with God, so I do not look for Him outside myself.


He, the Lord, penetrates my soul just as a ray from the sun penetrates clear glass. When I was enclosed in my mother's womb, I was not so closely united with her as I am with my God. There, it was an unawareness; but here, it is the fullness of reality and the consciousness of union. My visions are purely interior, but the more I understand them, the less I am able to express them in words. (883)


Jesus, give me the strength and wisdom to get through this terrible wilderness, that my heart may bear patiently this longing for You, O my Lord! I always remain in holy amazement when I sense that You are approaching me, You, the Lord of the awesome throne; that You descend to this miserable exile and visit this poor beggar who has nothing but misery! I do not know how to entertain You, my Royal Prince, but You know that I love You with every beat of my heart.


I see how You lower yourself, but nevertheless Your majesty does not diminish in my eyes. I know that You love me with the love of a bridegroom, and that is enough for me. Although we are separated by a great chasm, for You are the Creator and I am Your creature, nevertheless, love alone explains our union. Without it, all is incomprehensible.


Only love makes it possible to understand these incomprehensible intimacies with which You visit me. O Jesus, Your greatness terrifies me, and I would be in constant astonishment and fear, if You yourself did not set me at peace. You make me capable of communing with You before each approach. (885)


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.


AUGUST 22 - THE QUEENSHIP OF MARY


Our Lady speaks of her queenship to Jelena:


I have come to tell the world that God is truth; he exists. True happiness and the fullness of life are in him. I have come here as Queen of Peace to tell the world that peace is necessary for the salvation of the world. In God, one finds true joy form which true peace is derived (Locution Jelena & Mirijana June 16, 1983).


And from a monthly message in 1988: I am your mother and the Queen of Peace. I give you blessings of joy that God may be everything in your life. (Monthly Message July 25, 1988).


From Revelation:


A great portent appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and on her head a crown of twelve stars (Rv 12:1).


Reflection:


The crowning glory of Mary's life was her coronation as Queen of Heaven and Earth. The description of her above from the Book of Revelation has inspired artists and poets for centuries.


As Queen of Heaven, Our Lady continues to direct us to the King. In her message of July 25, 1988, she calls us "to a complete surrender to God." "Everything you do," she says, "and everything you possess, give over to God so that he can take control in your life, as King of all that you possess. "In this way, God can then lead us into the depths of the spiritual life.


Our Lady's own surrender to God, as exemplified by the Annunciation and her presence at the cross, inspires us to imitate her dependence on the Father. This trusting dependence harbors a strength, a courage, and peace that belies any power the world can give.


As St. Paul says, it is through our "weakness" that the power of God himself bursts forth. And so it is that what the world saw as a lowly maiden was, in the reality of God's power, the Queen of Heaven and Earth.


Application:


Today, pray that you may not rely on your own strength and wisdom, but on the Lord's.

Volume V Lesson #18 In Assisi September 11, 1995


MY LITTLE CHILDREN, MY SAINTS


My dear little one, I love My people. I love to be with them. I am the innocent, gentle Son of Man who was betrayed and condemned to death. I in My innocence carried sorrow in My heart for all the world.


The wickedness of the world stood before Me and condemned Me. Yet the world thought it was I who stood in sentence before them. My acceptance of their sentence was so that they would not die. I accepted the sentence of death for them, for all people, that the body might die by the sword but the soul could live forever for all those who believed in Love. The foolish man is one who does not believe in God. For those who do not believe God exists will betray their very selves, and their own wickedness will condemn them.


But for those who believe in My salvation through My victory in death will joyously celebrate and be with their gentle God. The wicked and righteous shall be slain by their very own sword, but the innocent and meek of heart shall live for all eternity. I shall stand by My people always even though many, one by one, have chosen and are choosing to walk away from Me.


Those who desire to remain with Me, I in My infinite wisdom chastise now in order that they will reign with Me and share in My glory. I desire to teach them now and encourage them to be "little" children, little in all ways: actions, thoughts, deeds and speech; little through simplicity and humility of heart.


Do not mistake littleness with lack of power. Littleness is detachment from possessions and is purity of heart.


It is simpleness and the wisdom to avoid the influence of wickedness. Littleness is not associated with the lack of wealth, prestige or success. Those who are little joyfully surrender all their attachments to this world and persevere with endurance. It does not bother them not to have any attachments because they are dependent on Me and are attached to Me.


Initially the surrender of their possessions may involve disheartening feelings along with temptations for the sweet enticements of the world; but as My little ones accept and renew daily their invitation to allow Me to love them, they master their feelings and find that even their feelings are attachments and obstacles to purity and humility of heart. They, with time and perseverance, become little children, pure and joyfully free, yet powerful and full of My heavenly treasures.


O' little one, how I invite all people to share in My great glory as My saints. My saints were little in the world, yet powerful because they chose to master their feelings by surrendering any possession or attachments to the world which might have prevented them from listening to My will and responding. The less the world gave to them, the more they received from Me. I invite all My people to be My little children, My saints. I love all and call all to My Heart.


I wait to see who will answer and respond to My call from heaven above, for those who respond will be My little children, My saints. Bless you, little one, and continue to pray for all people in the world and for peace and unity. AD DEUM.

LESSONS from Our Lord for the World


Volume V Lesson #17


In L'verna, Italy (site where St. Francis received the stigmata) September 10, 1995


THE SILENCE OF THE HEART


My little one, in today's world people do not take the time to reflect on God's goodness in silence. They are busy seeking enticements of the world, and speech is often what becomes their companion over silence. Yet when My people are in need , they briefly come to Me and are quick to ask for graces on behalf of their needs without taking the time for contemplation and prayer in gratitude.


My people speak too much and do not listen with their hearts. How I desire to fill My people with fond joy in their hearts through silence. Those who desire silence and prayer many times struggle because of the many people who violate their silence with disrespect and lack of compassion. I desire My people to take the time to reflect in silence on My love and My will for them.


If My people are too busy to take time to reflect on My love, how can they discern what My will is for them? It is through prayer and contemplation that peace resides in the heart. In peace can you discern the Way of God. Prayer and contemplation allow you to be at peace with yourself, no matter what distractions or confusion surround you.


My people take little time for silent prayer and many do not take any time for silent meditation. Then when confusion and chaos strike, they are not able to find peace within. Consequently, only few of My people are able to know the truth and follow My Way.


Most importantly, I want to speak to My people and fill them with all they desire: the freedom, the peace, the joy, wisdom and happiness of the heart; but they deny themselves and Me by not adhering to My request to pray within the silence of the heart. Confusion and chaos will only continue if no one believes in My Word to reflect in prayer on My will and My love.


How can you live My Word if you do not reflect on it? How can you understand the meaning of My Word and discern it as it pertains to your life and My will for you if you do not respect My gift of silence?


There is a time for speech and a time for silence. I tell you few of My people know the time for silence. When you are able to reflect in silence, you will see there are more speakable words in your heart than those found on your lips.


It is good, little one, that you have come back to My place where I spoke first to you about silence. Now you see there are many people who seek in pilgrimage their needs from Me and who fail to see that one of the greatest gifts of My merciful love is silence of the heart in order that their needs would be fulfilled. I have so many graces to give; and yet, there are so few who truly desire them.


They ask, ask and ask, but do not allow Me to give because My gift to them they choose not to receive. It is not in the format they expect and so they block the truth and light in answer to their request. Pray for their needs. I love My people.


I desire to unite with them more intimately; and yet, I wait for them. I will wait and continue to wait for them because of My great love for them. Simplicity of life and My will for you reside in the silence of your heart! Seek me there and you shall find Me and your joy. Peace to you, little one. My blessings and love. AD DEUM.


End of Lesson #17.


LESSONS from Our Lord for the World Volume V Lesson #16 In Assisi


September 9, 1995


LITTLE CHILDREN OF HOPE


My dear little one, I speak to many of My people awaiting a response of love. I desire for all people to unite and to love and to live in harmony, yet the forces of evil cause division when there is no response in faithfulness to My Word. My love alone sustains all people. Without My love nothing could exist.


My love speaks to all people, but not all have chosen the Way. So I speak to many of My people in different forms, and I await a response in simplicity and faithfulness. Today in this age there is much chaos and confusion because of great division.


The intellect makes a conscious effort to excel in power and control. I am looking for those who desire to be little children and for those who will guard My Word through faithfulness, love in action, and complete satisfaction in surrendering to Divine Providence. Very few of My people have chosen this route, yet My Mother, your Mother of the living, chose this simple little Way and Her power exceeds that of all creatures.


Her consciousness did not gain Her power through Her intellect, but Her unconscious union with the Spirit in love and faithfulness gained Her title of Queenship over mankind. Her feminine simplicity, Her "fiat", and Her fidelity to God were the bonds of unity and bridge of life for all of mankind. In Her resided the purity of all life, and through Her "fiat" came forth salvation for all mankind.


Why do I seek those who are little children in simpleness and yet of little influence? Because they listen and are totally dependent on Me. In their dependency stems a solid mature spiritual character, one different and unique from each other and all people. They march valiantly in the wisdom of silence of the heart, a silence where love dwells and peace resides. The voice of their prayers slays the dragons of evil and those who desire violence and destruction.


I love My little ones and invite all to follow the way of littleness as that of My Mother, so secure in Her fidelity to follow God at all costs without consolation or promises. I desire children of hope, those who will continue to fight the battle through prayer and little ways regardless of the current events of the world. They have hope always, for My little ones have Me.


I do not desire My children to pray and then give up their prayers because they do not see the results they desire. The battle is in the heavens against evil, and much prayer, fidelity to faithfulness, and simplicity in surrendering to God are the powerful tools of victory. Unity is what is needed. Peace is needed. All people need to join in peace and unity. But evil forces chase away those who are weak in prayer.


The time of victory is for God alone to choose. When many of My little children see continual division and brokenness, they begin to doubt whether their prayers are to any avail. Consequently, they stop praying because of their lack of faith and trust in My Word. I do not desire those to surrender prayer because they have not seen the results they desire. Never surrender prayer! Surrender your heart in love for My Word to Me and pray, pray, pray! The battle will be won through prayer and unity. Be persistent hope-filled children.


Have perseverance and hope in your God of love. Do not settle for less. Do not allow your consciousness to convince you to stop praying. Master all feelings through endurance and perseverance. Pray, pray, pray! Remain faithful and hope in My love! Peace, little one. My peace I give to My people. AD DEUM.


End of Lesson #16


LESSONS from Our Lord for the World Volume V Lesson #15 In private chapel at home August 4, 1995


LOVE AS I LOVED, DIE AS I DIED My dear little one, you cannot worry about what will happen tomorrow. You need not focus on anything but what you are to do today or you will experience anxiety and uncertainty. It is good to plan, but do not be consumed with making sure that your plans are fulfilled. Allow God's will to unfold in the midst of your plans. Maintain peace of heart and serenity. You cannot make something happen just as you cannot make someone love you. I cannot make My people love Me.


It is their free will that I have given to them as a gift. No matter how much you try to impress people or prove to them you have changed from your old ways, and no matter how kind you are to them, giving gifts of love, you cannot gain their acceptance or trust. They have free will to choose what and who they desire to love and accept.


That is why I have told you to focus on Me your Lord, nothing more, nothing else, nothing less. You will gain peace and serenity of heart in My love. You will always have My acceptance and My love. You need not prove to Me that you have changed, for I have given you the grace to change. You need not try to impress Me. My love is unconditional, and it is I who bear gifts of love for My people.


People can be very cruel. When they choose their way above God's Way, when they decide not to walk the path of love I have walked before them, they lose sight of truth and reality. They become blinded by the consuming desire to fulfill their quest, and in the process they become very cruel in nature and behavior.


What they define as freedom and the reign of freedom is not the stepping stone to unconditional love, but that of control and manipulation. That is why I continually invite all people to return to God, to love unconditionally and to be merciful. Many of My little ones become targets of pain from the belittling comments and cruel words of others.


They try to give of themselves unconditionally in love and in the process are lashed out at in return for their efforts. These My little ones many times feel abandoned by God, but it is not so. As my little ones turn to Me and refocus once again on My love, they are strengthened and become the pillars of My unconditional love. Step by step they become victorious in the eyes of God and merit the crown of glory. Why must it be so? Because, little one, all who love as I love must die as I died. It was My people who made their fate by their verdict they passed on Me.


They made their own fate by their judgment on Me. Now all who live as I live and desire to share in My glory must die as I died, in love and in humility. Remember, I was victorious in death, and in love of My people I died in order that all might live and share in My reign. I would do it again, for My love for My people surpasses all love.


Those who desire to follow this love must walk the walk, carry their cross and be crucified in My crucifiable love and mercy. Peace this day, little one, as the mysticism of My love unfolds in all its wonders. AD DEUM. End of Lesson #15.


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 Christians. 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.
