"I am your Savior"
Friday, April 10, 2009
Dear Friends,
The Death of Jesus
From noon onward, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. And about three o'clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" Some of the bystanders who heard it said, "This one is calling for Elijah."
Immediately one of them ran to get a sponge; he soaked it in wine, and putting it on a reed, gave it to him to drink. But the rest said, "Wait, let us see if Elijah comes to save him." But Jesus cried out again in a loud voice, and gave up his spirit. And behold, the veil of the sanctuary was torn in two from top to bottom.
The earth quaked, rocks were split, tombs were opened, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised. And coming forth from their tombs after his resurrection, they entered the holy city and appeared to many.
The centurion and the men with him who were keeping watch over Jesus feared greatly when they saw the earthquake and all that was happening, and they said, "Truly, this was the Son of God!" There were many women there, looking on from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him. Among them were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee. Matthew 27:45-56
Here is a message given by Our Lord and Savior to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him from the cross while he was in contemplation and here are the Lord's words, "Come, My brother, close to Me as I hang upon the cross for your salvation. See the blood dripping from all My wounds. They have driven the nails through My hands and feet and the crown of thorns is on My head. I am in great pain as I await this cruel death.
See, My brothers and sisters, what your sins have caused Me. How evil sin is that it has caused Me excruciating suffering during My Passion until My death on the cross. However, I suffered all this for you because I love you and I desire reconciliation between you and the Father. Through My Passion I have opened heaven for you so that if you follow Me, you will enter one day eternal life in heaven and you will be with the Father, with Me and the Holy Spirit and with My Blessed Mother and all the angels and saints.
Come spend this holy day in union with Me on the cross. Contemplate the scene as I hang on the cross. You know that I was crucified instead of you because I love you. Let Me wash you completely in My Blood and you will be cleansed. I am your Savior."

"I bless you"

Dear Friends,
The Lord's Supper
While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, "Take and eat; this is my body." Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins.
I tell you, from now on I shall not drink this fruit of the vine until the day when I drink it with you new in the Kingdom of my Father." Then, after singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. Matthew 26:26-30
I am giving you another message by Our Lord and Savior addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words, "As it is customary for the Jews, the families come together to celebrate the Passover on a special date every year. This is in commemoration of the first Passover in Egypt where the Jews lived in slavery for four hundred years.
Each family had killed a lamb, smeared the blood on the frame of the door and ate the lamb. The angel of death passed over the homes of the Jews but one was killed in every home of the Egyptians. I am now the Lamb of God killed for your salvation.
It was during the Passover meal that I instituted the Eucharist with the Apostles the night before I died on the cross. I celebrated the First Eucharist by taking bread and blessed it and I gave it to the Apostles saying, 'Take and eat: this is my body.' By these words I changed the bread into My very flesh. I was now present in the Eucharist with My body and blood, soul and divinity.
Then I took the cup of wine, gave thanks and gave it to them saying, 'Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins.' At the end I told the Apostles to do this in commemoration of Me.
I gave the gift of the Eucharist to the Church founded upon the Apostles. I disappeared from the sight of the people but I am still with you in a very special way in the Eucharist. I am present there as I live in heaven at the right hand of the Father. Have a great devotion to the Eucharist and come to receive Me often. I bless you."

Message to J.N.S.R. Feb.2, 2009
For My repentant children
February 2, 2009
JESUS: My child, write this for all the children of the World.
When you distance yourselves from GOD, do not take any other path than the One where the Most Holy Virgin of Light, "The Virgin of the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple". She is the Mother who, alone, can atone the sin of Her repentant children.
Those who are touched by Her, shall have for their life, the burning fire of Her Motherly LOVE for JESUS, the Child of Divine reconciliation.
They will have to remember that the Blessed Mother and the Divine Child will always be on their heart, in order to give to the World, the "Testimony of the Great Forgiveness", of the Mother and Child.
The Mother in Love with God, and the Divine Child who can refuse nothing to His Blessed Mother. +
Blessings this day, to those who are coming back to GOD, through the path of the Virgin of Light. Jesus and Mary on this day of the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple. Amen.
Your Jesus of LOVE with My Most Holy Mother, the Virgin of Light and of FORGIVENESS.

Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 10 - Begin changing your family life
"The Paschal Mystery is Christ at the summit of the revelation of the inscrutable mystery of God. It is precisely then that the words pronounced in the Upper Room are completely fulfilled: 'He who has seen me has seen the Father.'
In fact, Christ, whom the Father 'did not spare' for the sake of man and who in His passion and in the torment of the cross did not obtain human mercy, has revealed in His resurrection the fullness of the love that the Father has for Him and, in Him, for all people. 'He is not God of the dead, but of the living.'
In His resurrection Christ has revealed the God of merciful love, precisely because He accepted the cross as the way to the resurrection" (Pope John Paul II, Dives in Misericordia, 8).
Mother Teresa
Meditations by Padre Pio -
You must turn to God when you are assaulted by the enemy; you must hope in Him and expect everything that is good from Him. Don't voluntarily dwell on what the enemy presents to you.
Remember that, he who flees, wins, and at the first sign of your aversion for those people, you must stop thinking of it and turn to God. Bend you knee before Him, and with the greatest humility say this short prayer: "Have mercy on me a poor weakling." Then get up and, with holy indifference, go on about your business (Letters III p 418).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
The motives of many who cry peace and justice are the socializers satan loves!
"The second group of those who have been caught on the hooks of the devil's fishing line are the Socializers. Not everyone in our modern world develops social interests because he loves his neighbor in God. There are some who enter social work to escape the incessant accusing repartee of their consciences.
Failing in individual justice, they compensate for it by espousing social justice; they escape the need of personal reformation by going hog wild about social reformation; they meddle with everyone else's morals, in order to be too busy to correct their own."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
Sunday, [April] 28, 1935. Low Sunday; that is, the Feast of the Divine Mercy, the conclusion of the Jubilee of Redemption. When we went to take part in the celebrations, my heart leapt with joy that the two solemnities were so closely united. I asked God for mercy on the souls of sinners. Toward the end of the service, when the priest took the Blessed Sacrament to bless the people, I saw the Lord Jesus as He is represented in the image. The Lord gave His blessing, and the rays extended over the whole world. Suddenly, I saw an impenetrable brightness in the form of a crystal dwelling place, woven together from waves of a brilliance unapproachable to both creatures and spirits. Three doors led to this resplendence. At that moment, Jesus, as He is represented in the image, entered this resplendence through the second door to the Unity within. It is a triple Unity, which is incomprehensible-which is infinity. I heard a voice, This Feast emerged from the very depths of My mercy, and it is confirmed in the vast depths of My tender mercies. Every soul believing and trusting in My mercy will obtain it. I was overjoyed at the immense goodness and greatness of my God. (420)
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.
APRIL 10 - BEGIN CHANGING YOUR FAMILY LIFE
The family is the topic of Our Lady's message today:
"Dear Children, today I call you to begin changing your family life. May it be like a harmonious flower which I can present to Jesus. Dear Children, I ask each family to actively pray, for one day the fruit of family prayer will clearly seen. Then I will give you all to Jesus, like the petals of many flowers, in fulfillment of God's plan" (Weekly Message May 1, 1986)
In this passage from Ephesians, Paul urges us to seek wisdom and to rejoice in the name of Jesus Christ:
Be careful then how you live, not as unwise people but as wise, making the most of time, because the days are evil. So do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
Do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit, as you sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves, singing and making melody to the Lord in your hearts, giving thanks to God the Father at all times and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (Eph 5:15-20).
Reflection:
Truly our joy resides in Jesus Christ, as Paul tells the Ephesians, and as Our Lady tells the families of the world. Clearly it is in the family that Christ is born into the hearts of children and where the torch of faith is passed from one generation to the next.
And so the Blessed Mother urges that, "Every family be active in prayer," for this makes all the difference.
Application:
In response to the Virgin's message today, offer the following prayer for your family:
Lord Jesus, I implore you to grant your special graces to our family. May our home be a shrine of peace, purity, love, labor, and faith. I ask you, dear Jesus, to protect and bless all of us, absent and present, living and dead.
O Mary, loving Mother of Jesus, and our Mother, pray for our family, for all the families of the world. Guard the cradle of the newborn, the schools of the young, and their vocations.
Blessed St. Joseph, holy guardian of Jesus and Mary, assist us by your prayers in all the necessities of life. Ask of Jesus that special grace which he granted to you, to watch over our home and the pillow of the sick and the dying, so that with Mary and with you, heaven may find our family unbroken in the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Amen.
Fr Doucette - Wed, Apr 08, 2009: "Contemplate on what I suffered for you"

"Contemplate on what I suffered for you"
Wednesday, April 08, 2009
Dear Friends,
Now when Jesus was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, a woman came up to him with an alabaster jar of costly perfumed oil, and poured it on his head while he was reclining at table. When the disciples saw this, they were indignant and said, Why this waste? It could have been sold for much, and the money given to the poor. Since Jesus knew this, he said to them,
Why do you make trouble for the woman? She has done a good thing for me. The poor you will always have with you; but you will not always have me. In pouring this perfumed oil upon my body, she did it to prepare me for burial. Amen, I say to you, wherever this gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will be spoken of, in memory of her.? Matthew 26:6 13
It rained yesterday for a good part of the day but the sun came out in the evening and it was mild. It is partly cloudy this morning but the sun will shine later on. The temperature stays a little above the freezing point but the snow is disappearing fast.
I celebrated Holy Mass at the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island yesterday morning and I will celebrate Holy Mass again this morning at the same time. Last evening I was at our church for one hour of Eucharistic Adoration during the most holy week of the year. This evening I will go back to the church for the prayer meeting at 8:00 p.m. I expect a large group of people. I hope to send out the newsletter by the end of the week.
Here now is the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words, The day of My Passion and death is now very near. I had told My Apostles many times that I would go to Jerusalem and be arrested by the Chief Priests and be condemned to death and I would die on the cross and on the third day I would rise again. The Apostles could not accept this.
Another action to show that I was close to death was the anointing by Mary of Magdala in Bethany. She poured out upon My head a costly perfumed oil to prepare My body for burial. Although Judas objected that she use this oil, I told him that she did a good thing. He wanted the oil sold and the money given to the poor but the truth is that he was in charge of the common purse and he often stole that money.
Mary of Magdala’s action showed her great love for Me, her Savior. I had forgiven her all her sins and since that time she was a follower of mine.
My dear friends, what are you going to do during this Holy Week to show Me your love? Are you going to pray more? Are you going to help the poor? My dear brothers and sisters, I call you near to Me especially during these coming days when I suffered and died for you and on the third day I rose from the dead. Show by your good actions that you are thankful and you wish to be united with Me during these days. Contemplate on what I suffered for you.

A Headquarters (See) within of the Thebaid, now Esneh, or Esench, a city in Egypt, built by the Emperor Hadrian A. D. 132, in memory of his favorite, Antinous.

Martyrs in the persecution of in the reign of terror and persecutions of Roman Emperor Diocletian from there included Athanasia, her three daughters, Cyrus and John.

Because it has always been a seaport. Alexandria the improved the facilities, this was in the decline of our empire. Further, Our Lord, Yeshua, Jesus the Christ in English was raised near there. My speculation, the place was filled with grace because of the Holy Family's temporary presence.

Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 07 - ST. JOHN BAPTIST DE LA SALLE
"This providential initiative [witnessing to the presence of the Risen Lord], falling appropriately in the context of the year dedicated to the Eucharist, will surely be a source of renewed apostolic vitality and missionary daring for everyone . . . to bear witness, in modern society, to the presence of the Risen Christ, the center of the Church." (Pope John Paul II, February 19, 2005)
Mother Teresa Everything is God's to give and to take away, so share what you've been given, and that includes yourself.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Put an end to these apprehensions. Remember that it is not the thought that makes the sin, but consenting to these thought. Only the free will is capable of good or evil. But when the will groans under the trial presented by the tempter and does not want it, there is not only no sin, but there is virtue. (CE, 34).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Haters are the first of five classes who are gullible to Satan's bait. "Haters. Bigots use their heads, though wrongly; haters use their spleens, though overmuch."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - O my God, my only hope, I have placed all my trust in You, and I know I shall not be disappointed. (317) Once, my confessor [Father Sopocko] asked me where the inscription should be placed, because there was not enough space in the picture for everything. I answered, "I will pray and give you an answer next week." When I left the confessional and was passing before the Blessed Sacrament, I received an inner understanding about the inscription.
Jesus reminded me of what He had told me the first time; namely, that these three words must be clearly in evidence: "Jesus, I trust in You." ["Jezu, Ufam Tobie."] I understood that Jesus wanted the whole formula to be there, but He gave no direct orders to this effect as He did for these three words.
I am offering people a vessel with which they are to keep coming for graces to the fountain of mercy. That vessel is this image with the signature: "Jesus, I trust in You." (327)
Jesus, I trust in You; I trust in the ocean of your mercy. You are a Mother to me. (249)
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.
APRIL 7 - ST. JOHN BAPTIST DE LA SALLE
In the midst of the civil war in Yugoslavia, the Blessed Mother gave this message to the world in the spring of 1992:
"Dear Children, today I also call you to prayer. Only by prayer and fasting can war be stopped. Therefore, my dear little children, pray, and by your life give witness that you are mine and that you belong to me, for Satan wants during these turbulent days to seduce as many souls as possible.
Therefore, I call you to decide for God, for he will protect you and show you what you should do and which path to take " (Monthly Message April 25, 1992).
The Virgin's call to show the world that we belong to her are an echo of the words of Christ in Luke's gospel. No one after lighting a lamp hides it under a jar, or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light (Lk 8 :16).
Reflection:
Example is a teacher's greatest tool of instruction, a fact well understood by St. John Baptist de la Salle, the founder of a teaching order, the Brothers of the Christian Schools. Born in 1651 of a wealthy and noble family, John was both scholarly and devout, beginning his studies for the priesthood while still in his teens. Ordained at 27, his empathy for the poor and uneducated led him to devote his life to their care.
He was also a great innovator : Individual instruction was replaced by instruction in class; he insisted on silence and order in the classroom, and instructions were given in the native language rather than Latin. He once wrote to his friars :
You should not doubt that you have been given the grace to teach (children), to instruct them in the gospel, an to form them in religion. This is a great gift from God…Let your students be moved by your untiring care for them and feel as though God were encouraging them through you.
Application:
"I call you to decide for God," the Virgin says today, "for he will protect you an show you what you should do and which path to take." In the spirit of St. John, make this commitment to God again in prayer today.
Message to Louise April 6,2009 Message via L., VJ April 6, 2009- - -9:35 A.M.
L. began to receive a message fron her sons and said, "Jesus, please cover me with Your Most Precious Blood."
"Dear mom there are few true believers alive on earth today. People are agnostic, atheistic, belong to cults or occults thus ignoring every word of God, breaking His every word. It's very hard to keep the faith today for the influences is everywhere - - on television, newspapers, in magazines; just everywhere!
Adults and children alike live in deadly sin. It won't be long now before our God sends His devastating JUSTICE. People MUST either convert, change their lives or eternally reap their chosen reward- -Heaven with God or Hell with Satan. Mom, TIME IS VERY SHORT! People of every race, color and creed MUST heed the Words the Father, God and OBEY!
We love you mom and pray at the Feet of God for you, our sister and her family.
Forever your sons, Joey and Stephen."
Vision to littlest of servants April 6, 2009
While in Church this morning praying before the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following vision.
I saw a CATHOLIC CHURCH and the walls and roof all collapsed leaving a small beautiful CATHOLIC CHURCH in the center.
JESUS then spoke and told me that soon the REMNANT CHURCH that HIS MOTHER has been building all these years will emerge and that CHURCH will be much more beautiful than what we have now.
JESUS speaks of HIS little servant to littlest of servants April 5, 2009
MY little servant has indeed been MY little servant all these years.
MY little servant has served ME in all HUMILITY.
MY little servant has sacrificed much and has suffered much all the while serving ME.
MANY YEARS AGO I RAISED THE LITTLE SERVANT FROM THE DEAD (my life of sin) TO SERVE ME AND TO PROVE THAT I AM CAN EVEN RAISE THE ROCKS UP TO SERVE ME.
MY little servant is one of the MANY GIFTS to this generation.
MY little servant has been the signpost on the road leading to ME.
(I now received a vision and I saw a signpost on a fork in the road that indicated which way to go).
That PATH that the little servant has pointed to has on it SACRIFICE, THE ROSARY, THE DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET, MASS, AND CONFESSION.
All these things make sure you stay on this RIGHT PATH which will lead you to your SALVATION, your JESUS.
(I received another vision and I saw the RESURRECTED JESUS at the end of a path with HIS ARMS wide open to receive those on this PATH).
PRAY FOR THE LITTLE SERVANT. I LOVE the little servant SO MUCH.
The little servant has suffered so much. LISTEN to MY little servant, My GIFT to you.
THE LITTLE SERVANT IS TRULY THE SIGNPOST ON THE SURE PATH THAT LEADS TO YOUR JESUS.
JESUS YOUR SAVIOR WHO SAVES

"I suffer for you today"
Friday, April 03, 2009
Dear Friends,
Now on the occasion of the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the crowd one prisoner whom they wished. And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas. So when they had assembled, Pilate said to them, "Which one do you want me to release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus called Messiah?"
For he knew that it was out of envy that they had handed him over. While he was still seated on the bench, his wife sent him a message, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man. I suffered much in a dream today because of him." The chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas but to destroy Jesus. The governor said to them in reply, "Which if the two do you want me to release to you?"
They answered, "Barabbas!" Pilate said to them, "Then what shall I do with Jesus called Messiah?" They all said, "Let him be crucified!" But he said, "Why? What evil has he done?" They only shouted the louder, "Let him be crucified!"
When Pilate saw that he was not succeeding at all, but that a riot was breaking out instead, he took water and washed his hands in the sight of the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood. Look to it yourselves." And the whole people said in reply, "His blood be upon us and upon our children." Then he released Barabbas to them, but after he had Jesus scourged, he handed him over to be crucified. Matthew 27:15-26
Here is the message Our Lord gave Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, "As you can see My trial before Pilate was a farce. Although he said that I was innocent, he had Me scourged and then handed Me over to the soldiers to be crucified. He had a notorious prisoner released instead of Me.
For the scourging the soldiers tied Me to a pillar and stripped Me. Then they started beating Me with long whips with some metal on the tips. This metal would enter My skin and tear out My flesh every time.
At the end I was bleeding all over My body and I was lying on the floor covered with blood. I had no more strength to stand up. After the whipping was over, they placed a crown of thorns on My head driving the thorns into My flesh. Blood poured out of these wounds into My eyes and on the face.
My dear friends, I accepted all this suffering for you because I love you. I am indeed your Savior who paid the price for all your sins. I accepted to suffer and to die on the cross so that you would become My friend and live in union with Me every day. My heart is full of mercy for you, so come to Me and repent of your sins. I will take them all away. Come to the cross today and contemplate Me, Your Savior, as I suffer for you today."
Father Melvin
Mother of God Message of March 25, 2009
"Dear children! In this time of spring, when everything is awakening from the winter sleep, you also awaken your souls with prayer so that they may be ready to receive the light of the risen Jesus. Little children, may He draw you closer to His Heart so that you may become open to eternal life. I pray for you and intercede before the Most High for your sincere conversion. Thank you for having responded to my call."
Our Lady's message to Medjugorje visionary Mirjana Soldo, April 2, 2009:
"Dear children, God's love is in my words. My children, that is the love which desires to turn you to justice and truth. That is the love which desires to save you from delusion. And what about you, my children? Your hearts remain closed; they are hard and do not respond to my calls. They are insincere. With a motherly love I am praying for you, because I desire for all of you to resurrect in my Son. Thank you."
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 06 - You are all My children
CONFIRMED: MEDJUGORJE SEER RECEIVES ANOTHER MESSAGE MENTIONING 'SIGN OF THE TIMES'
Seer Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo of Medjugorje has received a second message mentioning "signs." We have verified it through a guide who was present.
The visionary, who no longer sees the Blessed Mother every day, receives a monthly messages on the second of every month and the one for April 2 reportedly read:
"Dear Children, I come to you because I wish to show you, by my own example, the importance of prayer for those who have not known the love of God. Ask yourself if you are following me. My children, don't you recognize the signs of the times? Don't you talk about them? Follow me. As your Mother I call you! Thank you for having responded."
One of the eldest of the six seers, who assert apparitions at the famed site since 1981, Mirjana was the first to receive all ten of the secrets designated for each one and in March too relayed a message that for the first time in years seemed to carry prophetic import.
That message -- recorded during her annual birthday apparition on March 18 -- read:
"Dear children! In this Lenten time, I call you to interior renunciation. The way to this leads you through love, fasting, prayer and good works. Only with total interior renunciation will you recognize God's love and the signs of the time in which you live. You will be witnesses of these signs and will begin to speak about them. I desire to bring you to this. Thank you for having responded to me."
The gravity of such language is rare at Medjugorje, where since the 1990s messages have focused almost solely on general spirituality.
Medjugorje - A past message from Our Lady March 25, 1997 "Dear children! Today, in a special way, I invite you to take the cross in the hands and to meditate on the wounds of Jesus. Ask of Jesus to heal your wounds, which you, dear children, during your life sustained because of your sins or the sins of your parents.
Only in this way, dear children, you will understand that the world is in need of healing of faith in God the Creator. By Jesus' passion and death on the cross, you will understand that only through prayer you, too, can become true apostles of faith; when, in simplicity and prayer, you live faith which is a gift. Thank you for having responded to my call."
"In one Spirit we were all baptized into one body . . . and we were all given to drink of one Spirit" (1 Cor 12:13). "The Eucharist, precisely by building up the Church, creates human community" (Art. 24). Offer a parish Holy Hour for vocations to the priesthood and religious life on Holy Thursday. Encourage adorers to pray for seminarians, priests, bishops, cardinals and our Holy Father, Pope John Paul II.
Mother Teresa
I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 9 Temptations against faith and purity are the merchandise offered by the enemy, but do not fear him, rather, despise him. As long as he makes an uproar it is a sign that he has not yet possessed the will. Don't be upset by what you experience through the work of this rebellious angel. Let your will always be contrary to his suggestions, and live tranquilly, because you are not at fault, but rather, you please God and gain progress for your soul (Letters III p426).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Lake Hades is a dangerous fishing area!
"As one makes a study of those who have been caught on the hooks of the devil's fishing line, or who hide behind their freedoms in order to destroy the very source of that freedom, and who are thus particularly gullible for the devil's bait can be reduced to five classes."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
God and Souls. An Act of Oblation.
Before heaven and earth, before all the choirs of Angels, before the Most Holy Virgin Mary, before all the powers of heaven, I declare to the One Triune God that today, in union with Jesus Christ, Redeemer of souls, I make a voluntary offering of myself for the conversion of sinners, especially for those souls who have lost hope in God's mercy.
This offering consists in my accepting, with total subjection to God's will, all the sufferings, fears and terrors with which sinners are filled. In return, I give them all the consolations which my soul receives from my communion with God. In a word, I offer everything for them: Holy Masses, Holy Communions, penances, mortifications, prayers. I do not fear the blows, blows of divine justice, because I am united with Jesus.
O my God, in this way I want to make amends to You for the souls that do not trust in Your goodness. I hope against all hope in the ocean of Your mercy. My Lord and my God, my portion-my portion forever, I do not base this act of oblation on my own strength, but on the strength that flows from the merits of Jesus Christ. I will daily repeat this act of self-oblation by pronouncing the following prayer which You Yourself have taught me, Jesus:
"O Blood and Water which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a Fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You!" (309)
MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
APRIL 6 - YOU ARE ALL MY CHILDREN
Today Our Lady speaks of our equality in God's sight. In the context of the cure of an Orthodox child, she said:
"Tell this priest, tell everyone, that it is you who are divided on earth. The Muslims and the Orthodox, for the same reason as Catholics, are equal before my Son and I. You are all my children.
Clearly, all religions are not equal, but all men are equal before God, as St. Paul says. It does not suffice to belong to the Catholic church to be saved, it is also necessary to respect the commandments of God while following your conscience." (First Years 1985)
In John's gospel, Christ also speaks of our oneness with God and with each other:
The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that your have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me (Jn;22-23).
Reflection:
Mindful of this call from Christ and his Mother that we be one, united in God's Spirit, let us offer the following prayer for our unity:
Lord Jesus Christ, at your Last Supper you prayed to the Father that all should be one. Send your Holy Spirit upon all who bear your name and seek to serve you. Strengthen our faith in you, and lead us to love one another in humility. May we who have reborn in one baptism be united in one faith under one shepherd. Amen.
Application:
Keep an eye on the religion section of your local newspaper, watch for the next ecumenical liturgy or service project in your community. Support it by your presence and prayer.

Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 05 - I call you today to complete surrender to God
"We adore You, Jesus Eucharist. We adore Your body and blood given for us and for all in the remission of sins. ... As we adore You, how can we not think about the many things we should do to give You glory? ... Help us, Jesus, to understand that 'to do' in Your Church, .... it is important above all 'to be', that is, to stay with You in adoration, in Your gentle company." (Pope John Paul II, March 18, 2005).
Mother Teresa
Anyone is capable of going to Heaven. Heaven is our home. Dying is not the end, it is just the beginning. Death is a continuation of life. This is the meaning of eternal life; it is where our soul goes to God, to be in the presence of God, to see God, to speak to God, to continue loving Him with greater love. We only surrender our body in death - our heart and our soul live forever.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Observe well that as long as you are displeased by the temptations you have nothing to fear. But why are you sorry about this, if not because you don't want to experience it? These troublesome temptations come from the evil of the devil. But the displeasure and suffering we experience come from the mercy of God, who, contrary to our enemy's will, draws holy tribulations from malice, through which He purifies the gold that wants to be part of His treasure.
Furthermore, your temptations come from the devil but your suffering and afflictions come from God and Paradise. The mother is from Babilonia, but the children are from Jerusalem. Despise the temptation and embrace the tribulation. No, no, my daughter, let the wind blow, and do not believe the noise of leaves is the blast of arms (Letters III, pp 636-637).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
05-Be righteously angry at wrongs!
"When more get mad, not because they lose money, but because right is ignored and wrong enthroned, then the fires will come back to democracy. And these fires will burn like beacons summoning men to a finer and better world."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html
Once the Lord said to me, Act like a beggar who does not back away when he gets more alms [than he asked for], but offers thanks the more fervently. You too should not back away and say that you are not worthy of receiving greater graces when I give them to you. I know you are unworthy, but rejoice all the more and take as many treasures from My Heart as you can carry, for then you will please Me more. And I will tell you one more thing: Take these graces not only for yourself, but also for others; that is, encourage the souls with whom you come in contact to trust in My infinite mercy. Oh, how I love those souls who have complete confidence in Me. I will do everything for them. (294)
Ask of my faithful servant [Father Sopocko] that, on this day, he tell the whole world of My great mercy; that whoever approaches the Fount of Life on this day will be granted complete remission of sins and punishment.
Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy.
Oh, how much I am hurt by a soul's distrust! Such a soul professes that I am Holy and Just, but does not believe that I am Mercy and does not trust in My Goodness. Even the devils glorify My Justice but do not believe in My Goodness.
My Heart rejoices in this title of Mercy. (300)
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.
APRIL 5 - I CALL YOU TO SURRENDER Today the Blessed Mother speaks of both surrender and joy:
"Dear Children, I call you today to complete surrender to God-to great joy and peace which only God can give. I am with you and I intercede for you every day before God (Monthly Message March 25, 1989).
Christ also speaks of the rewards of abandoning oneself to God:
Peter began to say to him, "Look, we have left everything and followed you. " Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold?" (Mk 10:28-30).
Reflection:
Following Christ, surrendering ourselves to his care, is accompanied by beautiful gifts of the Holy Spirit, chief among them being inner peace. Yet it is a seeming paradox that in abandoning ourselves, placing ourselves totally at God's disposal, we should at the same time experience a profound freedom of spirit. But this is because all our cares, worries, and problems are no longer ours, but the Lord's. We become like trusting children again, confident and safe in the hands of our Father.
Application:
Mindful of Our Lady's message today, surrender yourself again to the Lord, using this prayer composed by St. Teresa of Avila:
Lord, grant that I may always allow myself to be guided by you, always follow your plans, and perfectly accomplish your will.
Grant that in all things, great and small, today and all the days of my life, I may do whatever you require of me. Help me to respond to the slightest prompting of your grace, so that I may be a trustworthy instrument for your honor.
May your will be done in time and in eternity---by me, in me, and through me. Amen.
Message to J.N.S.R Jan.11,2009
The END of My Book is not the OMEGA.
It is the ALPHA of your LIFE in ME.
January 11, 2009
JNSR: GOD is asking me to live, with Him, what I am about to write now, in order to bring His Book to its end.
I love to paint as I love to draw , and I noticed that an artist would often like to enter the painting being done and to be involved with all those characters who make up the scenery to which he gives life.
GOD is the sublime artist who paints and animates this immense fresco which is the Universe. GOD is greater than the Universe, since HE is the One who painted it!
If sometimes I find, in a painting I have just done, that something frustrates me, I remove it with one stroke of the brush, and replace it with something else, or even with some paint. In any case, we cannot leave an empty spot.
When the painting is finished, sometimes, after a period of time, I come back to it and I realize that it needs a finishing touch. And this is how, as long as that painting is where I can see it, I never find it just as I wanted it to be.
And thus, GOD sees His Creation, but He granted it all freedom. He does not touch it, and it became quite imperfect.
GOD: I created this animated picture of the World that keeps on deteriorating itself. I did not create it stable, and it has lost its identity. It no longer knows who has created it, or why it exists! Poor World!
It is my Masterpiece. I must repair it. It is now self destructive. Either I obliterate it all, and I start all over again, or I obliterate the part that is most damaged by wars, massacres, insolent powers, the domination of money and all those fornications.
GOD says to Himself: How could I destroy a part of the Work that I Myself conceived? That Work is still Me.
This foolish world, how to save it? Against its own freedom of wanting to break My Work and destroy itself later.
JNSR: I see GOD, the paintbrush in His Hand, ready to intervene.
"My GOD, my GOD, please don't do it! A single stroke of that brush and we are no more, and with us, all Your Work. Have Mercy My GOD!"
that GOD needs to fix this mess. He again, must reestablish His Creation to perfection, as it was designed to be divine. Action must be taken quickly, for matter can stand no longer the Times that are coming; it must disappear with all its subjects, all the creatures.
Since, by all means, it is running to its destruction. GOD: I must redo this painting, Of My Own Substance which is indestructible, and then, do this painting in Myself, so that it will live eternally, protected, and being My delight, instead of being a part of My despair. It will live, this New World, in "My Holy Will". I will give it "My Knowledge".
And so, GOD took this whole fresco which was away from Him, made it to be the delight of His Eyes, and entered it in Himself, after being through its "purification". It then became the delight of GOD, for he who sees GOD, becomes like Him.
AMEN!
Today, the shaky Scene of the entire World is living its final hours of impertinence towards its Creator.

CONTINUE TO PRAY
ONCE AGAIN, MY DEAR CHILDREN, I WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT SATAN WANTS ALSO THIS WORLD TO CHASTISE. HE WANTS TO DESTROY ALL THE GOOD, NOT THE EVIL, AND AMONG GOD'S CHOSEN TO CREATE MORE UPHEAVAL.
HE IS MORE CUNNING THAN YOU WOULD EVER SUSPECT, YET HE'LL MENTION NOT THE ROSARY WHICH HELPS YOU TO PROTECT. HIS INTENTIONS, MY DEAR CHILDREN, APPEAR SO APPEASING THAT IS WHY THE NUMBER OF GOD'S FLOCK CONTINUES DECREASING.
SOMETIMES YOU MAY NOT LIKE THE WORDS YOU ARE READING, YET YOU CANNOT CONSUME WHAT TO YOU SATAN'S FEEDING. IT IS NOT, MY DEAR CHILDREN, JUST A MATTER OF TASTE, BUT IT SHOULD BE AS GOD WANTS TO MAKE YOUR HEARTS CHASTE.
GOD DOES NOT WANT ONE SOUL HE CREATED TO LOSE; SO CONTINUE TO PRAY AND YOUR ROSARY TO USE. FOR THOSE, MY DEAR CHILDREN, WITH THEIR ROSARY IN HAND WILL WALK THRU THE RAINBOW TO THE NEW PROMISED LAND.
"THY WILL BE DONE" 4-2-2009
Vision to littlest of servants April 3rd & 4th While in Church both mornings while praying in front of the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following vision. I received this vision both mornings. I was in the pew praying and I saw OUR LADY standing right next to my pew.
SHE came as OUR LADY OF FATIMA with HER IMMACULATE EXPOSED.
SHE spoke to me and told me that HER SON has asked that REPARATION be made to HER IMMACULATE HEART for the GREAT OFFENSE OF ABORTION.
That HER IMMACULATE HEART was being LACERATED on a daily basis by this GREAT ABOMINATION.
That what had been asked by HER and HER SON at FATIMA many years ago still holds true today, except the OFFENSES ARE MUCH GREATER.
The things that OUR LADY asked for are, THE COMMUNION OF REPARATION OF THE FIRST SATURDAYS, TO CONFESS AND RECEIVE HOLY COMMUNION, AND TO RECITE FIVE DECADES OF THE ROSARY WHILE KEEPING OUR LADY COMPANY FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES WHILE MEDITATING ON THE FIFTEENMYSTERIES OF THE ROSARY WITH THE INTENTION OF MAKING REPARATION TO HER IMMACULATE HEART.
REMEMBER HER PROMISE AT FATIMA "IN THE END, MY IMMACULATE HEART WILL TRIUMP...AND A PERIOD OF PEACE WILL GRANTED TO THE WORLD."
Corrections to Message to Christina Gallagher March 29,2009 Apologies for delay in correction of typing errors in Our Lady’s message.
It is now over 20 years since Our Blessed Mother’s first apparition to Christina Gallagher. Our Lady’s call was not new. It was simply the call of Her Son in the Gospel -a call to come back to God, a call to repentance. It was a call to prayer from the heart through Her most beautiful Rosary. In the course of the past 20 years, God has powerfully upheld everything in Our Lady’s message as announced by Christina. She was frequently shown world events before they took place and all events shown to Christina have invariably been fulfilled;?
Earthquake in IRAN
As related in her autobiography (Out of the Ecstasy and Onto the Cross p11) she was shown an earthquake three weeks before it took place in Iran, killing 5,000 people. She told her spiritual director. When it occurred and was shown on television news, Our Lady explained to Christina that she had been shown the calamity before it took place, not to prevent it but to prepare the souls of the people for God.
War in RWANDA In early 1993, one year before the horrible war in Rwanda, Christina received an apparition (Out of the Ecstasy and Onto the Cross, p.11) in which she was asked by an African boy (unknown to her) named Emmanuel Segastashya, "Pray for me and my country, Burundi." - a country she had never heard of. It was only the following year when the slaughter of the war in Rwanda broke out and engulfed neighboring Burundi and among the countless victims of the massacres was Emmanuel - a visionary in Church - approved apparitions there - that the reason became clear to Christina.
War in CHECHNYA
On December 26, 1992 Christina had an apparition of the war that broke out approximately two years later in Chechnya. She made known, as usual, in advance what was shown to her. (Out of the Ecstasy and Onto the Cross, p.262). ?
Attack on TWIN TOWERS, NEW YORK
While in New York to address a Rosary Rally at Battery Park on September 11, 1999 Christina prophesied that the Twin Towers would be destroyed. She made the statement in the presence of a number of people including a US judge, a Canadian attorney, a radio broadcaster, and her spiritual director. One of these, Judge Dan Lynch, an American Judge, wrote an article on the matter and made it more widely public.
Tsunami in the INDIAN OCEAN On a number of separate occasions, the first being eight years before the Indian Ocean tsunami disaster - the massive undersea earthquake which smashed into nine countries across Asia on December 26, 2004 killing approximately one quarter of a million people - Christina was shown the exact tsunami scene taking place on a beautiful sandy beach with the wave washing in over houses and leaving corpses strewn on the beach as it swelled out again to sea.
She did not have the word 'tsunami' as it was not in ordinary use then but she published what was shown her in her biography which appeared as far back as 1996. Christina would lament and cry bitter tears on seeing these scenes in advance for she knew how Our Lady had been trying since the beginning of Her apparitions to warn the world on how to prevent such disasters.
Her calls were widely ignored and even ridiculed. On CNN News and on RTE news bulletins in Ireland, December 29th and 30th scientists were quoted as saying, All we can say is that the sea-bed shifted from its axis .
They were actually using the exact words of warning Our Blessed Mother had spoken to Christina on July 16, 2002 (published then on the web-site)...I tell you the world has been drawn short of its axis. It is clinging to the Hand of God to uphold it through Jesus...' Not only did the foretold happening occur but was even described afterwards by scientists in the very terms predicted by Our Lady.
Weather changes throughout THE WORLD
Long before weather patterns began to alter, Our Lady was warning us of what has now become widespread throughout the world. As far back as January 1, 1995 She declared, '...My daughter, the world is in its decline! World purification has begun. It will intensify more and more.
The weather will be so changeable: heat to cold to ice: rainstorms like the world has not witnessed: hurricanes, floods, earthquakes even in unexpected countries: mudslides, disasters throughout the world will increase when the Hand of My Son covers the world... This message's widespread fulfillment is, of course, a matter of historical record.
Collapse of the STOCK MARKET
On January 23, 2006, Christina was told by Our Blessed Mother that the works She had desired 'should be completed at once as there will be a collapse in the stock market'. This message, given to Christina by Our Blessed Mother at the height of the economic boom in 'celtic tiger' Ireland as it was then called seemed incredible even to some devotees of Our Lady's message! Ireland was the economic envy of the world because of the enormous strength of the national economy and its highest-ever living standards.
We were being held up as the perfect example of material prosperity and for anyone to speak or even think of economic collapse seemed absurd and ridiculous. Yet, against all the odds and despite the complacency of experts the message of Our Lady to Christina was, as always, once again resoundingly fulfilled.?
ONE WORLD Currency, ONE WORLD Bank, ONE WORLD Government and ONE WORLD Church
As far back as 1992 Christina was told by Our Blessed Mother that a uniting of currencies would come about in Europe (Out of the Ecstasy and Onto the Cross, pg 329) and following that, in the world. The former has of course already occurred as of March 2009, a number of world political leaders are calling for a world regulation of banking, and even a single world currency.
We can, therefore, now see a global bank and uniting of currency about to come into being. Swiftly we will see a total control of people being put in place through the use of the chip which will be nothing other than the mark of the beast mentioned in the Scriptures (Book of Revelations, chapter 13). Those who take it will lose their souls permanently as revelation states. Then there will be put in place a one world Church which will not be Christian.
Message upheld by HEALINGS
Over 500 healings have been recorded. These include 10 different forms of cancer, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, blindness, instantaneous clearance of blocked carotid arteries among several other conditions. Some already have received exhaustive in-depth analysis and been found by consultants and medical professors to have 'no human, scientific, medical or psychological explanation'.
Message upheld by the Gift of Knowledge of SOULS
God's gift of seeing a person's state of soul was given to Christina as she ministered to priests. It is probably best summed up by a Jesuit theologian from London who first visited her 20 years ago. He later wrote of his experience, 'This remarkable Irishwoman demonstrated beyond any doubt that she possessed a sort of x-ray vision into my private world of conscience and moral striving. She could read the secrets of my heart. She could witness within me that hidden arena where, as is the case with everyone, warfare is waged non-stop between good and evil, truth and falsehood, light and darkness. Though aware that other priests had a similar experience, I was nonetheless bowled over when Christina Gallagher proceeded to discern with clinical precision the weaknesses and strengths of my world within'. (Dr. Richard Foley, S.J., Preface, The Sorrow, the Sacrifice and the Triumph by Dr. Tom Petrisko)
The following is the latest experience given to Christina by Our Lady Queen of Peace on March 29th 2009
The birth-pangs are over. The world is handed over to the anti- Christ.
Civil war will break out in the United States and many will fight and kill each other. Christina was shown a scene of what will take place, the weapons being used and the blood flowing. The horror was over powering for her. Christina was then allowed to witness the explosion of a bomb which will be dropped on America. Its impact was horrific. She was shown that an earthquake will follow some time later. (She, herself believes that the earthquake will be a direct consequence of the bomb.)
The events in the U.S. will also filter throughout Europe and then throughout the world. A great suppression will come about.??
Many, including Church authorities will go willingly in union with the anti-Christ because of the control he wields. Christina was shown how God desires to protect the handing on of the faith throughout the times that are to follow. Christina was shown how the Holy Father is suffering. There is much rebellion and hatred against him even within the Church. She was then shown the global Church descending into a great blackness and exuding misty vapour. This scene was surrounded by a multitude of angry demons wanting to get rid of the Church and Christianity.
Christina was then shown Blessed Michael, clad in red and gold and holding his sword upright. Behind him could be seen Our Blessed Lady and a multitude of angels in red, in haste to do battle with the adversary.
Pestilence will accompany the civil war and the suppression. Mosquitoes will carry all kinds of new diseases. Locusts such as have never been seen before will form a plague; it will seem as those themselves have an evil intent, almost as if they have an awareness that they are to wreak destruction.
The only hope for people in the U.S. to gain the graces of protection as invited by Our Blessed Lady is to be in the state of grace and draw from God’s graces through Her promise by going to pray frequently in Her Chain Houses and upholding them- now beforehand- as it will be too late for them when these events have begun to happen.
As messenger, Christina says it is heartbreaking for her to give this message and yet she has no option but to do so. She gives it in response to Our Blessed Lady despite her knowing that she will be mocked and ridiculed for doing so. However, it is up to each one to choose whether they accept or reject it.

Our Lady's words to Christina for the anniversary, July 16th 2008, "Everyone of you can see around you the disintegration of faith in God and the decline of the world.
I desire that you study My messages in which I prepared you for these times and foretold what has now come upon you. I desire My children to read those messages in which I tried to protect you from the dangers which now surround you.
There is nothing more to be said."
4th Message to J.N.S.R. Jan.4, 2009 GOD dwells in the heart of every human being.
January 4, 2009 JNSR: What GOD did through LOVE for everyone, is exactly what everyone does (or must do) out of love for GOD, when they leave the earth. They rejoin GOD, for All return to GOD.
The Heart of Man is a compass whose needles are constantly turned towards GOD.
The Heart of "GOD of LOVE" is conceived to shelter man.
It is this magnet whose magnetic field draws everyone to Him.
When the Time came to save mankind, Mary only had to say "YES". The Holy Virgin was ready to welcome the SAVIOUR of the World.
She was like the extension of the Heaven of Glory , She was the Holy Divine and Immaculate Conception, already informed by GOD to receive GOD, so as to get Him ready to be "the Son of Man" on Earth.
GOD is amongst mankind.
The Holy Spirit deposited the Verb of GOD in the womb of the Virgin Mary, and the Verb was made flesh and dwelt among us, this Son of man is truly GOD, He is His Verb become flesh.
He is the visible GOD, the GOD of the LIVING. The GOD who spoke to Moses, the GOD who became man so that Man may become GOD. The Father gave Him All His Authority.
Here is the Ultimate Revelation: In the DIVINE is found the Human. In the Human also dwells the DIVINE. He is FATHER, He is SON, He is SPIRIT, in a One and Unique GOD.
A pregnant woman is always one woman by herself, until the birth of her child when they become two persons and even three if we count the father.
GOD with His Verb within Him and even out of Him, for the Word is roaming, it sings, it fascinates, it educates, it appeases.
But GOD and His Verb is the One and Same GOD.
And the Verb became Flesh, to atone for Man's sin and to give His human body to the Cross, to be the martyr of the original sin, so that His brother may be relieved from condemnation. And that the NAME of the Father may not be sullied and questioned, so that the debt incurred by the original sin may be totally remitted. The Son of GOD, the Verb of GOD gave His own flesh of Divine Man to die on the Cross, thereby annihilating with this virgin flesh, the sins it bore from all men, past, present and future.
The sacrificial Lamb of GOD emptied of every last drop of His Divine Blood, has just come to open the door of Heaven, which was locked since the origin of the World.
Now GOD's Name is still YESHOUA but is written YHShWH.
GOD "Yeshoua" is written "YHShWH" since Christ came: YHShWH, for the Sh added to the Hebrew letter, indicates the Humanity of GOD.
And Y is the letter indicating the Father.
The letter H, twice, indicates the Spirit, because it is double in the sign of the Cross. It goes from the Father to the Son. The W is to indicate the Divinity of Jesus, the Verb of GOD.
The Humanity of GOD - SH - indicates GOD become man Yeshoua, YHShWH,
From Father He made Himself SON. From SON He made Himself Man. From Man He made Himself Bread, the Bread of Suffering on the CROSS, so as to give Himself to every human.
The Holy Eucharist For Christmas, My Holy NATIVITY, Man!
You are invited to come and adore your GOD. who makes Himself so vulnerable that He dares say to you:
"See, I desired, like you, to have a Father, so as to look like Him. That is why I became the SON of this GOD of LOVE for everyone. I desired, like you, to have a Mother, for even God has that great need, in order to be consoled in her arms. I wanted to be King, without a crown, without a throne, without a sword, only for you. For you, so that you elevate yourself with Me. For you, I AM your Father, your Brother, and your King. I chose to die on a CROSS, the one lever that can elevate you to Me, For you, to offer you the best place.
I AM the Risen One!
I too would like, for one thing only, to resemble you, for man alone can adore Me and pray to Me very intently, and sing because I AM your CREATOR.
When you see Me in sorrow and suffering, with joined hands, and My eyes fixed on Heaven, it is that I AM praying to My Father who is in ME, as He is in you. And like you are in US, in the Father, in the Son with the Spirit.
I AM the SON of Man and every man has GOD in him. Yes, Jesus prays to His Father who is in HIM. Amen.
Where is the Mystery?

Lec-What I Heard - April 4, 2009
April 4. 2009
6:45 A.M.
Son, receive my anointing and hear my words. I AM not going to belabor anymore the fact that very soon the great events will be witnessed by everyone and many who do not watch or simply shunned hearing words of warning will be shocked not only to witness but actually experience the effects of what are going to take place in the world.
I am not to cause fear as my greatest concern is for people who listen to my words to give the highest priority in the use of their time to gain what will earn merits for the soul in eternity. Reduce time for entertainment and use part of it to pray, do penance, worship and do good works.
Share knowledge on how time on earth can be used for the attainment of sanctity for the soul.
On the last sentence sounding like a directive, the thought of Devotion to the Divine Mercy came to mind. Checking on the small booklet on the first page I feel that what is stated below would satisfy what is asked. Lec
The church teaches us to be merciful in various ways:
THE CORPORAL WORKS OF MERCY
1. Feed the hungry 2. Give drink to the thirsty 3. Clothe the naked 4. Shelter the homeless 5. Comfort the imprisoned 6. Visit the sick 7. Bury the dead
THE SPIRITUAL WORKS OF MERCY
1. Admonish sinners 2. Instruct the uninformed 3. Counsel the doubtful 4. Comfort the sorrowful 5. Be patient with those in error 6. Forgive offenses 7. Pray for the living and the dead REMINDER:
The Divine Mercy Novena begins on April 10th and ends on the eve of the feast day, the 18th.
To the celebration of the Feast of Divine Mercy Jesus attached an extraordinary promise:
The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion (on that day) shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet (II, 138).
Souls who spread the honor of My mercy I shield through their entire life as a tender mother her infant, and at the hour of death I will not be a Judge for them , but the Merciful Savior (III,20,21)
FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE
"I suffer for you today"
Friday, April 03, 2009
Dear Friends,
Now on the occasion of the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the crowd one prisoner whom they wished. And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas. So when they had assembled, Pilate said to them, "Which one do you want me to release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus called Messiah?"
For he knew that it was out of envy that they had handed him over. While he was still seated on the bench, his wife sent him a message, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man. I suffered much in a dream today because of him." The chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas but to destroy Jesus. The governor said to them in reply, "Which if the two do you want me to release to you?"
They answered, "Barabbas!" Pilate said to them, "Then what shall I do with Jesus called Messiah?" They all said, "Let him be crucified!" But he said, "Why? What evil has he done?" They only shouted the louder, "Let him be crucified!"
When Pilate saw that he was not succeeding at all, but that a riot was breaking out instead, he took water and washed his hands in the sight of the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood. Look to it yourselves." And the whole people said in reply, "His blood be upon us and upon our children." Then he released Barabbas to them, but after he had Jesus scourged, he handed him over to be crucified. Matthew 27:15-26
Here is the message Our Lord gave Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, "As you can see My trial before Pilate was a farce. Although he said that I was innocent, he had Me scourged and then handed Me over to the soldiers to be crucified. He had a notorious prisoner released instead of Me.
For the scourging the soldiers tied Me to a pillar and stripped Me. Then they started beating Me with long whips with some metal on the tips. This metal would enter My skin and tear out My flesh every time.
At the end I was bleeding all over My body and I was lying on the floor covered with blood. I had no more strength to stand up. After the whipping was over, they placed a crown of thorns on My head driving the thorns into My flesh. Blood poured out of these wounds into My eyes and on the face.
My dear friends, I accepted all this suffering for you because I love you. I am indeed your Savior who paid the price for all your sins. I accepted to suffer and to die on the cross so that you would become My friend and live in union with Me every day. My heart is full of mercy for you, so come to Me and repent of your sins. I will take them all away. Come to the cross today and contemplate Me, Your Savior, as I suffer for you today."
Father Melvin
Mother of God Message of March 25, 2009
"Dear children! In this time of spring, when everything is awakening from the winter sleep, you also awaken your souls with prayer so that they may be ready to receive the light of the risen Jesus. Little children, may He draw you closer to His Heart so that you may become open to eternal life. I pray for you and intercede before the Most High for your sincere conversion. Thank you for having responded to my call."
Our Lady's message to Medjugorje visionary Mirjana Soldo, April 2, 2009:
"Dear children, God's love is in my words. My children, that is the love which desires to turn you to justice and truth. That is the love which desires to save you from delusion. And what about you, my children? Your hearts remain closed; they are hard and do not respond to my calls. They are insincere. With a motherly love I am praying for you, because I desire for all of you to resurrect in my Son. Thank you."
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 06 - You are all My children
CONFIRMED: MEDJUGORJE SEER RECEIVES ANOTHER MESSAGE MENTIONING 'SIGN OF THE TIMES'
Seer Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo of Medjugorje has received a second message mentioning "signs." We have verified it through a guide who was present.
The visionary, who no longer sees the Blessed Mother every day, receives a monthly messages on the second of every month and the one for April 2 reportedly read:
"Dear Children, I come to you because I wish to show you, by my own example, the importance of prayer for those who have not known the love of God. Ask yourself if you are following me. My children, don't you recognize the signs of the times? Don't you talk about them? Follow me. As your Mother I call you! Thank you for having responded."
One of the eldest of the six seers, who assert apparitions at the famed site since 1981, Mirjana was the first to receive all ten of the secrets designated for each one and in March too relayed a message that for the first time in years seemed to carry prophetic import.
That message -- recorded during her annual birthday apparition on March 18 -- read:
"Dear children! In this Lenten time, I call you to interior renunciation. The way to this leads you through love, fasting, prayer and good works. Only with total interior renunciation will you recognize God's love and the signs of the time in which you live. You will be witnesses of these signs and will begin to speak about them. I desire to bring you to this. Thank you for having responded to me."
The gravity of such language is rare at Medjugorje, where since the 1990s messages have focused almost solely on general spirituality.
Medjugorje - A past message from Our Lady March 25, 1997 "Dear children! Today, in a special way, I invite you to take the cross in the hands and to meditate on the wounds of Jesus. Ask of Jesus to heal your wounds, which you, dear children, during your life sustained because of your sins or the sins of your parents.
Only in this way, dear children, you will understand that the world is in need of healing of faith in God the Creator. By Jesus' passion and death on the cross, you will understand that only through prayer you, too, can become true apostles of faith; when, in simplicity and prayer, you live faith which is a gift. Thank you for having responded to my call."
"In one Spirit we were all baptized into one body . . . and we were all given to drink of one Spirit" (1 Cor 12:13). "The Eucharist, precisely by building up the Church, creates human community" (Art. 24). Offer a parish Holy Hour for vocations to the priesthood and religious life on Holy Thursday. Encourage adorers to pray for seminarians, priests, bishops, cardinals and our Holy Father, Pope John Paul II.
Mother Teresa
I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 9 Temptations against faith and purity are the merchandise offered by the enemy, but do not fear him, rather, despise him. As long as he makes an uproar it is a sign that he has not yet possessed the will. Don't be upset by what you experience through the work of this rebellious angel. Let your will always be contrary to his suggestions, and live tranquilly, because you are not at fault, but rather, you please God and gain progress for your soul (Letters III p426).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Lake Hades is a dangerous fishing area!
"As one makes a study of those who have been caught on the hooks of the devil's fishing line, or who hide behind their freedoms in order to destroy the very source of that freedom, and who are thus particularly gullible for the devil's bait can be reduced to five classes."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
God and Souls. An Act of Oblation.
Before heaven and earth, before all the choirs of Angels, before the Most Holy Virgin Mary, before all the powers of heaven, I declare to the One Triune God that today, in union with Jesus Christ, Redeemer of souls, I make a voluntary offering of myself for the conversion of sinners, especially for those souls who have lost hope in God's mercy.
This offering consists in my accepting, with total subjection to God's will, all the sufferings, fears and terrors with which sinners are filled. In return, I give them all the consolations which my soul receives from my communion with God. In a word, I offer everything for them: Holy Masses, Holy Communions, penances, mortifications, prayers. I do not fear the blows, blows of divine justice, because I am united with Jesus.
O my God, in this way I want to make amends to You for the souls that do not trust in Your goodness. I hope against all hope in the ocean of Your mercy. My Lord and my God, my portion-my portion forever, I do not base this act of oblation on my own strength, but on the strength that flows from the merits of Jesus Christ. I will daily repeat this act of self-oblation by pronouncing the following prayer which You Yourself have taught me, Jesus:
"O Blood and Water which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a Fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You!" (309)
MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
APRIL 6 - YOU ARE ALL MY CHILDREN
Today Our Lady speaks of our equality in God's sight. In the context of the cure of an Orthodox child, she said:
"Tell this priest, tell everyone, that it is you who are divided on earth. The Muslims and the Orthodox, for the same reason as Catholics, are equal before my Son and I. You are all my children.
Clearly, all religions are not equal, but all men are equal before God, as St. Paul says. It does not suffice to belong to the Catholic church to be saved, it is also necessary to respect the commandments of God while following your conscience." (First Years 1985)
In John's gospel, Christ also speaks of our oneness with God and with each other:
The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that your have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me (Jn;22-23).
Reflection:
Mindful of this call from Christ and his Mother that we be one, united in God's Spirit, let us offer the following prayer for our unity:
Lord Jesus Christ, at your Last Supper you prayed to the Father that all should be one. Send your Holy Spirit upon all who bear your name and seek to serve you. Strengthen our faith in you, and lead us to love one another in humility. May we who have reborn in one baptism be united in one faith under one shepherd. Amen.
Application:
Keep an eye on the religion section of your local newspaper, watch for the next ecumenical liturgy or service project in your community. Support it by your presence and prayer.
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 05 - I call you today to complete surrender to God
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 05 - I call you today to complete surrender to God
"We adore You, Jesus Eucharist. We adore Your body and blood given for us and for all in the remission of sins. ... As we adore You, how can we not think about the many things we should do to give You glory? ... Help us, Jesus, to understand that 'to do' in Your Church, .... it is important above all 'to be', that is, to stay with You in adoration, in Your gentle company." (Pope John Paul II, March 18, 2005).
Mother Teresa
Anyone is capable of going to Heaven. Heaven is our home. Dying is not the end, it is just the beginning. Death is a continuation of life. This is the meaning of eternal life; it is where our soul goes to God, to be in the presence of God, to see God, to speak to God, to continue loving Him with greater love. We only surrender our body in death - our heart and our soul live forever.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Observe well that as long as you are displeased by the temptations you have nothing to fear. But why are you sorry about this, if not because you don't want to experience it? These troublesome temptations come from the evil of the devil. But the displeasure and suffering we experience come from the mercy of God, who, contrary to our enemy's will, draws holy tribulations from malice, through which He purifies the gold that wants to be part of His treasure.
Furthermore, your temptations come from the devil but your suffering and afflictions come from God and Paradise. The mother is from Babilonia, but the children are from Jerusalem. Despise the temptation and embrace the tribulation. No, no, my daughter, let the wind blow, and do not believe the noise of leaves is the blast of arms (Letters III, pp 636-637).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
05-Be righteously angry at wrongs!
"When more get mad, not because they lose money, but because right is ignored and wrong enthroned, then the fires will come back to democracy. And these fires will burn like beacons summoning men to a finer and better world."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html
Once the Lord said to me, Act like a beggar who does not back away when he gets more alms [than he asked for], but offers thanks the more fervently. You too should not back away and say that you are not worthy of receiving greater graces when I give them to you. I know you are unworthy, but rejoice all the more and take as many treasures from My Heart as you can carry, for then you will please Me more. And I will tell you one more thing: Take these graces not only for yourself, but also for others; that is, encourage the souls with whom you come in contact to trust in My infinite mercy. Oh, how I love those souls who have complete confidence in Me. I will do everything for them. (294)
Ask of my faithful servant [Father Sopocko] that, on this day, he tell the whole world of My great mercy; that whoever approaches the Fount of Life on this day will be granted complete remission of sins and punishment.
Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy.
Oh, how much I am hurt by a soul's distrust! Such a soul professes that I am Holy and Just, but does not believe that I am Mercy and does not trust in My Goodness. Even the devils glorify My Justice but do not believe in My Goodness.
My Heart rejoices in this title of Mercy. (300)
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.
APRIL 5 - I CALL YOU TO SURRENDER Today the Blessed Mother speaks of both surrender and joy:
"Dear Children, I call you today to complete surrender to God-to great joy and peace which only God can give. I am with you and I intercede for you every day before God (Monthly Message March 25, 1989).
Christ also speaks of the rewards of abandoning oneself to God:
Peter began to say to him, "Look, we have left everything and followed you. " Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold?" (Mk 10:28-30).
Reflection:
Following Christ, surrendering ourselves to his care, is accompanied by beautiful gifts of the Holy Spirit, chief among them being inner peace. Yet it is a seeming paradox that in abandoning ourselves, placing ourselves totally at God's disposal, we should at the same time experience a profound freedom of spirit. But this is because all our cares, worries, and problems are no longer ours, but the Lord's. We become like trusting children again, confident and safe in the hands of our Father.
Application:
Mindful of Our Lady's message today, surrender yourself again to the Lord, using this prayer composed by St. Teresa of Avila:
Lord, grant that I may always allow myself to be guided by you, always follow your plans, and perfectly accomplish your will.
Grant that in all things, great and small, today and all the days of my life, I may do whatever you require of me. Help me to respond to the slightest prompting of your grace, so that I may be a trustworthy instrument for your honor.
May your will be done in time and in eternity---by me, in me, and through me. Amen.
Message to J.N.S.R Jan.11,2009
The END of My Book is not the OMEGA.
It is the ALPHA of your LIFE in ME.
January 11, 2009
JNSR: GOD is asking me to live, with Him, what I am about to write now, in order to bring His Book to its end.
I love to paint as I love to draw , and I noticed that an artist would often like to enter the painting being done and to be involved with all those characters who make up the scenery to which he gives life.
GOD is the sublime artist who paints and animates this immense fresco which is the Universe. GOD is greater than the Universe, since HE is the One who painted it!
If sometimes I find, in a painting I have just done, that something frustrates me, I remove it with one stroke of the brush, and replace it with something else, or even with some paint. In any case, we cannot leave an empty spot.
When the painting is finished, sometimes, after a period of time, I come back to it and I realize that it needs a finishing touch. And this is how, as long as that painting is where I can see it, I never find it just as I wanted it to be.
And thus, GOD sees His Creation, but He granted it all freedom. He does not touch it, and it became quite imperfect.
GOD: I created this animated picture of the World that keeps on deteriorating itself. I did not create it stable, and it has lost its identity. It no longer knows who has created it, or why it exists! Poor World!
It is my Masterpiece. I must repair it. It is now self destructive. Either I obliterate it all, and I start all over again, or I obliterate the part that is most damaged by wars, massacres, insolent powers, the domination of money and all those fornications.
GOD says to Himself: How could I destroy a part of the Work that I Myself conceived? That Work is still Me.
This foolish world, how to save it? Against its own freedom of wanting to break My Work and destroy itself later.
JNSR: I see GOD, the paintbrush in His Hand, ready to intervene.
"My GOD, my GOD, please don't do it! A single stroke of that brush and we are no more, and with us, all Your Work. Have Mercy My GOD!"
that GOD needs to fix this mess. He again, must reestablish His Creation to perfection, as it was designed to be divine. Action must be taken quickly, for matter can stand no longer the Times that are coming; it must disappear with all its subjects, all the creatures.
Since, by all means, it is running to its destruction. GOD: I must redo this painting, Of My Own Substance which is indestructible, and then, do this painting in Myself, so that it will live eternally, protected, and being My delight, instead of being a part of My despair. It will live, this New World, in "My Holy Will". I will give it "My Knowledge".
And so, GOD took this whole fresco which was away from Him, made it to be the delight of His Eyes, and entered it in Himself, after being through its "purification". It then became the delight of GOD, for he who sees GOD, becomes like Him.
AMEN!
Today, the shaky Scene of the entire World is living its final hours of impertinence towards its Creator.

CONTINUE TO PRAY
ONCE AGAIN, MY DEAR CHILDREN, I WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT SATAN WANTS ALSO THIS WORLD TO CHASTISE. HE WANTS TO DESTROY ALL THE GOOD, NOT THE EVIL, AND AMONG GOD'S CHOSEN TO CREATE MORE UPHEAVAL.
HE IS MORE CUNNING THAN YOU WOULD EVER SUSPECT, YET HE'LL MENTION NOT THE ROSARY WHICH HELPS YOU TO PROTECT. HIS INTENTIONS, MY DEAR CHILDREN, APPEAR SO APPEASING THAT IS WHY THE NUMBER OF GOD'S FLOCK CONTINUES DECREASING.
SOMETIMES YOU MAY NOT LIKE THE WORDS YOU ARE READING, YET YOU CANNOT CONSUME WHAT TO YOU SATAN'S FEEDING. IT IS NOT, MY DEAR CHILDREN, JUST A MATTER OF TASTE, BUT IT SHOULD BE AS GOD WANTS TO MAKE YOUR HEARTS CHASTE.
GOD DOES NOT WANT ONE SOUL HE CREATED TO LOSE; SO CONTINUE TO PRAY AND YOUR ROSARY TO USE. FOR THOSE, MY DEAR CHILDREN, WITH THEIR ROSARY IN HAND WILL WALK THRU THE RAINBOW TO THE NEW PROMISED LAND.
"THY WILL BE DONE" 4-2-2009
Vision to littlest of servants April 3rd & 4th While in Church both mornings while praying in front of the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following vision. I received this vision both mornings. I was in the pew praying and I saw OUR LADY standing right next to my pew.
SHE came as OUR LADY OF FATIMA with HER IMMACULATE EXPOSED.
SHE spoke to me and told me that HER SON has asked that REPARATION be made to HER IMMACULATE HEART for the GREAT OFFENSE OF ABORTION.
That HER IMMACULATE HEART was being LACERATED on a daily basis by this GREAT ABOMINATION.
That what had been asked by HER and HER SON at FATIMA many years ago still holds true today, except the OFFENSES ARE MUCH GREATER.
The things that OUR LADY asked for are, THE COMMUNION OF REPARATION OF THE FIRST SATURDAYS, TO CONFESS AND RECEIVE HOLY COMMUNION, AND TO RECITE FIVE DECADES OF THE ROSARY WHILE KEEPING OUR LADY COMPANY FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES WHILE MEDITATING ON THE FIFTEENMYSTERIES OF THE ROSARY WITH THE INTENTION OF MAKING REPARATION TO HER IMMACULATE HEART.
REMEMBER HER PROMISE AT FATIMA "IN THE END, MY IMMACULATE HEART WILL TRIUMP...AND A PERIOD OF PEACE WILL GRANTED TO THE WORLD."
Corrections to Message to Christina Gallagher March 29,2009 Apologies for delay in correction of typing errors in Our Lady’s message.
It is now over 20 years since Our Blessed Mother’s first apparition to Christina Gallagher. Our Lady’s call was not new. It was simply the call of Her Son in the Gospel -a call to come back to God, a call to repentance. It was a call to prayer from the heart through Her most beautiful Rosary. In the course of the past 20 years, God has powerfully upheld everything in Our Lady’s message as announced by Christina. She was frequently shown world events before they took place and all events shown to Christina have invariably been fulfilled;?
Earthquake in IRAN
As related in her autobiography (Out of the Ecstasy and Onto the Cross p11) she was shown an earthquake three weeks before it took place in Iran, killing 5,000 people. She told her spiritual director. When it occurred and was shown on television news, Our Lady explained to Christina that she had been shown the calamity before it took place, not to prevent it but to prepare the souls of the people for God.
War in RWANDA In early 1993, one year before the horrible war in Rwanda, Christina received an apparition (Out of the Ecstasy and Onto the Cross, p.11) in which she was asked by an African boy (unknown to her) named Emmanuel Segastashya, "Pray for me and my country, Burundi." - a country she had never heard of. It was only the following year when the slaughter of the war in Rwanda broke out and engulfed neighboring Burundi and among the countless victims of the massacres was Emmanuel - a visionary in Church - approved apparitions there - that the reason became clear to Christina.
War in CHECHNYA
On December 26, 1992 Christina had an apparition of the war that broke out approximately two years later in Chechnya. She made known, as usual, in advance what was shown to her. (Out of the Ecstasy and Onto the Cross, p.262). ?
Attack on TWIN TOWERS, NEW YORK
While in New York to address a Rosary Rally at Battery Park on September 11, 1999 Christina prophesied that the Twin Towers would be destroyed. She made the statement in the presence of a number of people including a US judge, a Canadian attorney, a radio broadcaster, and her spiritual director. One of these, Judge Dan Lynch, an American Judge, wrote an article on the matter and made it more widely public.
Tsunami in the INDIAN OCEAN On a number of separate occasions, the first being eight years before the Indian Ocean tsunami disaster - the massive undersea earthquake which smashed into nine countries across Asia on December 26, 2004 killing approximately one quarter of a million people - Christina was shown the exact tsunami scene taking place on a beautiful sandy beach with the wave washing in over houses and leaving corpses strewn on the beach as it swelled out again to sea.
She did not have the word 'tsunami' as it was not in ordinary use then but she published what was shown her in her biography which appeared as far back as 1996. Christina would lament and cry bitter tears on seeing these scenes in advance for she knew how Our Lady had been trying since the beginning of Her apparitions to warn the world on how to prevent such disasters.
Her calls were widely ignored and even ridiculed. On CNN News and on RTE news bulletins in Ireland, December 29th and 30th scientists were quoted as saying, All we can say is that the sea-bed shifted from its axis .
They were actually using the exact words of warning Our Blessed Mother had spoken to Christina on July 16, 2002 (published then on the web-site)...I tell you the world has been drawn short of its axis. It is clinging to the Hand of God to uphold it through Jesus...' Not only did the foretold happening occur but was even described afterwards by scientists in the very terms predicted by Our Lady.
Weather changes throughout THE WORLD
Long before weather patterns began to alter, Our Lady was warning us of what has now become widespread throughout the world. As far back as January 1, 1995 She declared, '...My daughter, the world is in its decline! World purification has begun. It will intensify more and more.
The weather will be so changeable: heat to cold to ice: rainstorms like the world has not witnessed: hurricanes, floods, earthquakes even in unexpected countries: mudslides, disasters throughout the world will increase when the Hand of My Son covers the world... This message's widespread fulfillment is, of course, a matter of historical record.
Collapse of the STOCK MARKET
On January 23, 2006, Christina was told by Our Blessed Mother that the works She had desired 'should be completed at once as there will be a collapse in the stock market'. This message, given to Christina by Our Blessed Mother at the height of the economic boom in 'celtic tiger' Ireland as it was then called seemed incredible even to some devotees of Our Lady's message! Ireland was the economic envy of the world because of the enormous strength of the national economy and its highest-ever living standards.
We were being held up as the perfect example of material prosperity and for anyone to speak or even think of economic collapse seemed absurd and ridiculous. Yet, against all the odds and despite the complacency of experts the message of Our Lady to Christina was, as always, once again resoundingly fulfilled.?
ONE WORLD Currency, ONE WORLD Bank, ONE WORLD Government and ONE WORLD Church
As far back as 1992 Christina was told by Our Blessed Mother that a uniting of currencies would come about in Europe (Out of the Ecstasy and Onto the Cross, pg 329) and following that, in the world. The former has of course already occurred as of March 2009, a number of world political leaders are calling for a world regulation of banking, and even a single world currency.
We can, therefore, now see a global bank and uniting of currency about to come into being. Swiftly we will see a total control of people being put in place through the use of the chip which will be nothing other than the mark of the beast mentioned in the Scriptures (Book of Revelations, chapter 13). Those who take it will lose their souls permanently as revelation states. Then there will be put in place a one world Church which will not be Christian.
Message upheld by HEALINGS
Over 500 healings have been recorded. These include 10 different forms of cancer, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, blindness, instantaneous clearance of blocked carotid arteries among several other conditions. Some already have received exhaustive in-depth analysis and been found by consultants and medical professors to have 'no human, scientific, medical or psychological explanation'.
Message upheld by the Gift of Knowledge of SOULS
God's gift of seeing a person's state of soul was given to Christina as she ministered to priests. It is probably best summed up by a Jesuit theologian from London who first visited her 20 years ago. He later wrote of his experience, 'This remarkable Irishwoman demonstrated beyond any doubt that she possessed a sort of x-ray vision into my private world of conscience and moral striving. She could read the secrets of my heart. She could witness within me that hidden arena where, as is the case with everyone, warfare is waged non-stop between good and evil, truth and falsehood, light and darkness. Though aware that other priests had a similar experience, I was nonetheless bowled over when Christina Gallagher proceeded to discern with clinical precision the weaknesses and strengths of my world within'. (Dr. Richard Foley, S.J., Preface, The Sorrow, the Sacrifice and the Triumph by Dr. Tom Petrisko)
The following is the latest experience given to Christina by Our Lady Queen of Peace on March 29th 2009
The birth-pangs are over. The world is handed over to the anti- Christ.
Civil war will break out in the United States and many will fight and kill each other. Christina was shown a scene of what will take place, the weapons being used and the blood flowing. The horror was over powering for her. Christina was then allowed to witness the explosion of a bomb which will be dropped on America. Its impact was horrific. She was shown that an earthquake will follow some time later. (She, herself believes that the earthquake will be a direct consequence of the bomb.)
The events in the U.S. will also filter throughout Europe and then throughout the world. A great suppression will come about.??
Many, including Church authorities will go willingly in union with the anti-Christ because of the control he wields. Christina was shown how God desires to protect the handing on of the faith throughout the times that are to follow. Christina was shown how the Holy Father is suffering. There is much rebellion and hatred against him even within the Church. She was then shown the global Church descending into a great blackness and exuding misty vapour. This scene was surrounded by a multitude of angry demons wanting to get rid of the Church and Christianity.
Christina was then shown Blessed Michael, clad in red and gold and holding his sword upright. Behind him could be seen Our Blessed Lady and a multitude of angels in red, in haste to do battle with the adversary.
Pestilence will accompany the civil war and the suppression. Mosquitoes will carry all kinds of new diseases. Locusts such as have never been seen before will form a plague; it will seem as those themselves have an evil intent, almost as if they have an awareness that they are to wreak destruction.
The only hope for people in the U.S. to gain the graces of protection as invited by Our Blessed Lady is to be in the state of grace and draw from God’s graces through Her promise by going to pray frequently in Her Chain Houses and upholding them- now beforehand- as it will be too late for them when these events have begun to happen.
As messenger, Christina says it is heartbreaking for her to give this message and yet she has no option but to do so. She gives it in response to Our Blessed Lady despite her knowing that she will be mocked and ridiculed for doing so. However, it is up to each one to choose whether they accept or reject it.

Our Lady's words to Christina for the anniversary, July 16th 2008, "Everyone of you can see around you the disintegration of faith in God and the decline of the world.
I desire that you study My messages in which I prepared you for these times and foretold what has now come upon you. I desire My children to read those messages in which I tried to protect you from the dangers which now surround you.
There is nothing more to be said."
4th Message to J.N.S.R. Jan.4, 2009 GOD dwells in the heart of every human being.
January 4, 2009 JNSR: What GOD did through LOVE for everyone, is exactly what everyone does (or must do) out of love for GOD, when they leave the earth. They rejoin GOD, for All return to GOD.
The Heart of Man is a compass whose needles are constantly turned towards GOD.
The Heart of "GOD of LOVE" is conceived to shelter man.
It is this magnet whose magnetic field draws everyone to Him.
When the Time came to save mankind, Mary only had to say "YES". The Holy Virgin was ready to welcome the SAVIOUR of the World.
She was like the extension of the Heaven of Glory , She was the Holy Divine and Immaculate Conception, already informed by GOD to receive GOD, so as to get Him ready to be "the Son of Man" on Earth.
GOD is amongst mankind.
The Holy Spirit deposited the Verb of GOD in the womb of the Virgin Mary, and the Verb was made flesh and dwelt among us, this Son of man is truly GOD, He is His Verb become flesh.
He is the visible GOD, the GOD of the LIVING. The GOD who spoke to Moses, the GOD who became man so that Man may become GOD. The Father gave Him All His Authority.
Here is the Ultimate Revelation: In the DIVINE is found the Human. In the Human also dwells the DIVINE. He is FATHER, He is SON, He is SPIRIT, in a One and Unique GOD.
A pregnant woman is always one woman by herself, until the birth of her child when they become two persons and even three if we count the father.
GOD with His Verb within Him and even out of Him, for the Word is roaming, it sings, it fascinates, it educates, it appeases.
But GOD and His Verb is the One and Same GOD.
And the Verb became Flesh, to atone for Man's sin and to give His human body to the Cross, to be the martyr of the original sin, so that His brother may be relieved from condemnation. And that the NAME of the Father may not be sullied and questioned, so that the debt incurred by the original sin may be totally remitted. The Son of GOD, the Verb of GOD gave His own flesh of Divine Man to die on the Cross, thereby annihilating with this virgin flesh, the sins it bore from all men, past, present and future.
The sacrificial Lamb of GOD emptied of every last drop of His Divine Blood, has just come to open the door of Heaven, which was locked since the origin of the World.
Now GOD's Name is still YESHOUA but is written YHShWH.
GOD "Yeshoua" is written "YHShWH" since Christ came: YHShWH, for the Sh added to the Hebrew letter, indicates the Humanity of GOD.
And Y is the letter indicating the Father.
The letter H, twice, indicates the Spirit, because it is double in the sign of the Cross. It goes from the Father to the Son. The W is to indicate the Divinity of Jesus, the Verb of GOD.
The Humanity of GOD - SH - indicates GOD become man Yeshoua, YHShWH,
From Father He made Himself SON. From SON He made Himself Man. From Man He made Himself Bread, the Bread of Suffering on the CROSS, so as to give Himself to every human.
The Holy Eucharist For Christmas, My Holy NATIVITY, Man!
You are invited to come and adore your GOD. who makes Himself so vulnerable that He dares say to you:
"See, I desired, like you, to have a Father, so as to look like Him. That is why I became the SON of this GOD of LOVE for everyone. I desired, like you, to have a Mother, for even God has that great need, in order to be consoled in her arms. I wanted to be King, without a crown, without a throne, without a sword, only for you. For you, so that you elevate yourself with Me. For you, I AM your Father, your Brother, and your King. I chose to die on a CROSS, the one lever that can elevate you to Me, For you, to offer you the best place.
I AM the Risen One!
I too would like, for one thing only, to resemble you, for man alone can adore Me and pray to Me very intently, and sing because I AM your CREATOR.
When you see Me in sorrow and suffering, with joined hands, and My eyes fixed on Heaven, it is that I AM praying to My Father who is in ME, as He is in you. And like you are in US, in the Father, in the Son with the Spirit.
I AM the SON of Man and every man has GOD in him. Yes, Jesus prays to His Father who is in HIM. Amen.
Where is the Mystery?

Lec-What I Heard - April 4, 2009
April 4. 2009
6:45 A.M.
Son, receive my anointing and hear my words. I AM not going to belabor anymore the fact that very soon the great events will be witnessed by everyone and many who do not watch or simply shunned hearing words of warning will be shocked not only to witness but actually experience the effects of what are going to take place in the world.
I am not to cause fear as my greatest concern is for people who listen to my words to give the highest priority in the use of their time to gain what will earn merits for the soul in eternity. Reduce time for entertainment and use part of it to pray, do penance, worship and do good works.
Share knowledge on how time on earth can be used for the attainment of sanctity for the soul.
On the last sentence sounding like a directive, the thought of Devotion to the Divine Mercy came to mind. Checking on the small booklet on the first page I feel that what is stated below would satisfy what is asked. Lec
The church teaches us to be merciful in various ways:
THE CORPORAL WORKS OF MERCY
1. Feed the hungry 2. Give drink to the thirsty 3. Clothe the naked 4. Shelter the homeless 5. Comfort the imprisoned 6. Visit the sick 7. Bury the dead
THE SPIRITUAL WORKS OF MERCY
1. Admonish sinners 2. Instruct the uninformed 3. Counsel the doubtful 4. Comfort the sorrowful 5. Be patient with those in error 6. Forgive offenses 7. Pray for the living and the dead REMINDER:
The Divine Mercy Novena begins on April 10th and ends on the eve of the feast day, the 18th.
To the celebration of the Feast of Divine Mercy Jesus attached an extraordinary promise:
The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion (on that day) shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet (II, 138).
Souls who spread the honor of My mercy I shield through their entire life as a tender mother her infant, and at the hour of death I will not be a Judge for them , but the Merciful Savior (III,20,21)

"I suffer for you today"
Friday, April 03, 2009
Dear Friends,
Now on the occasion of the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the crowd one prisoner whom they wished. And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
So when they had assembled, Pilate said to them, "Which one do you want me to release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus called Messiah?" For he knew that it was out of envy that they had handed him over.
While he was still seated on the bench, his wife sent him a message, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man. I suffered much in a dream today because of him." The chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas but to destroy Jesus.
The governor said to them in reply, "Which if the two do you want me to release to you?" They answered, "Barabbas!" Pilate said to them, "Then what shall I do with Jesus called Messiah?" They all said, "Let him be crucified!" But he said, "Why? What evil has he done?" They only shouted the louder, "Let him be crucified!"
When Pilate saw that he was not succeeding at all, but that a riot was breaking out instead, he took water and washed his hands in the sight of the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood. Look to it yourselves." And the whole people said in reply, "His blood be upon us and upon our children." Then he released Barabbas to them, but after he had Jesus scourged, he handed him over to be crucified. Matthew 27:15-26
Here is the message Our Lord gave Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, "As you can see My trial before Pilate was a farce. Although he said that I was innocent, he had Me scourged and then handed Me over to the soldiers to be crucified. He had a notorious prisoner released instead of Me.
For the scourging the soldiers tied Me to a pillar and stripped Me. Then they started beating Me with long whips with some metal on the tips. This metal would enter My skin and tear out My flesh every time. At the end I was bleeding all over My body and I was lying on the floor covered with blood. I had no more strength to stand up. After the whipping was over, they placed a crown of thorns on My head driving the thorns into My flesh. Blood poured out of these wounds into My eyes and on the face.
My dear friends, I accepted all this suffering for you because I love you. I am indeed your Savior who paid the price for all your sins. I accepted to suffer and to die on the cross so that you would become My friend and live in union with Me every day. My heart is full of mercy for you, so come to Me and repent of your sins. I will take them all away. Come to the cross today and contemplate Me, Your Savior, as I suffer for you today."

"The gift of Myself"
Thursday, April 02, 2009
Dear Friends,
Jesus withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself. The crowds heard of this and followed him on foot from their towns. When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick.
When it was evening, the disciples approached him and said, "This is a deserted place and it is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves." Jesus said to them, "There is no need for them to go away; give them some food yourselves." But they said to him, "Five loaves and two fish are all we have here."
Then he said, "Bring them here to me," and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds. They all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the fragments left over-twelve wicker baskets full. Those who ate were about five thousand men, not counting women and children. Matthew 14:13-21
Here is another message from Our Lord addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, "During My public life, often large crowds followed Me. When I went to a deserted area, they would gather there by the thousands. I would heal the sick and teach them. A number of times I multiplied loaves of bread and fish to feed all these people. I had the Apostles to help Me distribute all this food to the people.
I know for the Jewish people these feeding in the desert brought back to them what happened to their ancestors when they spent forty years in the desert. My Father gave them manna to eat every day. This miracle was to bring them to believe that I was doing the Father's work and in time I would be accepted as the Son of the Father.
For you who are My followers today, this miracle brings you to another miracle, that of the Eucharist. The Eucharist is the food for your soul. I am truly present in the host and in the chalice so that I can come and live in your heart. I would like that all the people of the world would hunger for the Eucharist and come to receive Me regularly. It is the greatest gift that I left you, the gift of Myself. Repent of your sins and come to receive Me every day if it is possible. Come and live in union with Me."
Father Melvin
Message to Mirjana on Apil 2, 2009
"Dear children, God's love is in my words. My children, that is the love which desires to turn you to justice and truth. That is the love which desires to save you from delusion. And what about you, my children? Your hearts remain closed; they are hard and do not respond to my calls. They are insincere. With a motherly love I am praying for you, because I desire for all of you to resurrect in my Son. Thank you."
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 05 - I call you today to complete surrend
NOTE DATE: 2005 Medjugorje seer claims Pope appeared to him
www.spiritdaily.com
A friend of ours close to Medjugorje seer Ivan Dragicevic of Bosnia-Hercegovina writes, "At Ivan's apparition tonight (4/2) Ivan was recommending intentions to Our Lady when the Pope appeared on her left. He was smiling, young and very happy. All in white with a long gold cape. Our Lady said to Ivan: 'this is my son; he is with me.' Personally, I have never seen Ivan so happy."
"We adore You, Jesus Eucharist. We adore Your body and blood given for us and for all in the remission of sins. ... As we adore You, how can we not think about the many things we should do to give You glory? ... Help us, Jesus, to understand that 'to do' in Your Church, .... it is important above all 'to be', that is, to stay with You in adoration, in Your gentle company." (Pope John Paul II, March 18, 2005).
Mother Teresa Anyone is capable of going to Heaven. Heaven is our home. Dying is not the end, it is just the beginning. Death is a continuation of life. This is the meaning of eternal life; it is where our soul goes to God, to be in the presence of God, to see God, to speak to God, to continue loving Him with greater love. We only surrender our body in death - our heart and our soul live forever.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Observe well that as long as you are displeased by the temptations you have nothing to fear. But why are you sorry about this, if not because you don't want to experience it? These troublesome temptations come from the evil of the devil. But the displeasure and suffering we experience come from the mercy of God, who, contrary to our enemy's will, draws holy tribulations from malice, through which He purifies the gold that wants to be part of His treasure.
Furthermore, your temptations come from the devil but your suffering and afflictions come from God and Paradise. The mother is from Babilonia, but the children are from Jerusalem. Despise the temptation and embrace the tribulation. No, no, my daughter, let the wind blow, and do not believe the noise of leaves is the blast of arms (Letters III, pp 636-637).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
05-Be righteously angry at wrongs!
"When more get mad, not because they lose money, but because right is ignored and wrong enthroned, then the fires will come back to democracy. And these fires will burn like beacons summoning men to a finer and better world."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html
Once the Lord said to me, Act like a beggar who does not back away when he gets more alms [than he asked for], but offers thanks the more fervently. You too should not back away and say that you are not worthy of receiving greater graces when I give them to you. I know you are unworthy, but rejoice all the more and take as many treasures from My Heart as you can carry, for then you will please Me more. And I will tell you one more thing: Take these graces not only for yourself, but also for others; that is, encourage the souls with whom you come in contact to trust in My infinite mercy. Oh, how I love those souls who have complete confidence in Me. I will do everything for them. (294)
Ask of my faithful servant [Father Sopocko] that, on this day, he tell the whole world of My great mercy; that whoever approaches the Fount of Life on this day will be granted complete remission of sins and punishment.
Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy.
Oh, how much I am hurt by a soul's distrust! Such a soul professes that I am Holy and Just, but does not believe that I am Mercy and does not trust in My Goodness. Even the devils glorify My Justice but do not believe in My Goodness.
My Heart rejoices in this title of Mercy. (300)
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.
APRIL 5 - I CALL YOU TO SURRENDER
Today the Blessed Mother speaks of both surrender and joy:
"Dear Children, I call you today to complete surrender to God-to great joy and peace which only God can give. I am with you and I intercede for you every day before God (Monthly Message March 25, 1989).
Christ also speaks of the rewards of abandoning oneself to God:
Peter began to say to him, "Look, we have left everything and followed you. " Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold…" (Mk 10:28-30).
Reflection:
Following Christ, surrendering ourselves to his care, is accompanied by beautiful gifts of the Holy Spirit, chief among them being inner peace. Yet it is a seeming paradox that in abandoning ourselves, placing ourselves totally at God's disposal, we should at the same time experience a profound freedom of spirit. But this is because all our cares, worries, and problems are no longer ours, but the Lord's. We become like trusting children again, confident and safe in the hands of our Father.
Application:
Mindful of Our Lady's message today, surrender yourself again to the Lord, using this prayer composed by St. Teresa of Avila:
Lord, grant that I may always allow myself to be guided by you, always follow your plans, and perfectly accomplish your will.
Grant that in all things, great and small, today and all the days of my life, I may do whatever you require of me. Help me to respond to the slightest prompting of your grace, so that I may be a trustworthy instrument for your honor.
May your will be done in time and in eternity---by me, in me, and through me. Amen.
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 04 - You will encounter God
"For Christians, the greatest gift is certainly Jesus, our salvation. In the Eucharist He wished to remain with us: He became our 'viaticum', that is, our spiritual nourishment along the path of life. He sustains us in trials and difficulties: He makes us firm in hope and in everyday commitments" (Pope John Paul II, Jan. 15, 2005).
Mother Teresa Never let anything so fill you with pain or sorrow so as to make you forget the joy of Christ Risen
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 4 I know the Lord permits the devil to make these assaults, because His mercy renders you dear to Him, and He wants you to be similar to Him in the anguish of the desert, the garden and the Cross. But you must defend yourselves, cast aside and despising his evil insinuations in the name of God and Holy obedience (Letters III, p 588).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Not knowing the absolutes of goodness have got us into the mess we're in!
"Democracy today finds it hard to make up its mind on what is right. Communism, on the contrary, made up its mind on what was wrong. All its passions were devoted to evil. Evil today is starting the fires that are burning down the world. Leadership in democracies today cannot be expected to come out of the ashes of spineless indifference."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
The words of Jesus during my perpetual vows: My spouse, our hearts are joined forever. Remember to Whom you have vowed... everything cannot be put into words.
My petition while we were lying prostrate under the pall. I begged the Lord to grant me the grace of never consciously and deliberately offending Him by even the smallest sin or imperfection.
Jesus, I trust in You! Jesus, I love You with all my heart! When times are most difficult, You are my Mother.
For love of You, O Jesus, I die completely to myself today and begin to live for the greater glory of Your Holy Name.
Love, it is for love of You, O Most Holy Trinity, that I offer myself to You as an oblation of praise, as a holocaust of total self-immolation. And through this self-immolation, I desire the exaltation of Your Name, O Lord. I cast myself as a little rosebud at Your feet, O Lord, and may the fragrance of this flower be known to You alone.

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
APRIL 4 - YOU WILL ENCOUNTER GOD
In her monthly message for October, 1989, Our Lady said:
"Dear children, today I am also inviting you to prayer.
I am always calling you, but you are still far away. Therefore, from today, seriously commit yourselves to dedicating time to God. I am with you and I wish to teach you to pray with the heart. In prayer with the heart, you will encounter God. Therefore, dear children, pray, pray, pray." (Monthly Message October 25, 1989).
The conditions of quiet and solitude are needed to pray with the heart. In the gospels, Jesus often withdrew to a place of quiet:
The apostles gathered around Jesus, and told him all that they had done and taught. He said to them, "Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while." For many were coming and going, and they had no time even to eat (Mk 6:30-31).
Reflection:
Ohiyesa, a Santee Dakota Indian, once said:
In the life of the Indian there is only one inevitable duty the duty of prayer the daily recognition of the unseen and the eternal. He sees no need for setting apart one day in seven as a holy day, since to him all days are God's.
In the past, some of us have suffered from a mentality that tended to reject anything beyond ourselves. Whatever was unseen or eternal remained invisible to us. We were skeptical, scientific, task-oriented, self-centered, unreflective. It was like racing down a country highway at top speed, hardly tuned in to the rich vitality of life that surrounded us. When we stopped the car and explored the terrain, we could suddenly smell the grasses, hear birds singing, perhaps see a whole community in an anthill, or watch a darting squirrel.
Quiet prayer or meditation is not something we create on our own. It is largely a matter of shifting our attention, of being open to the spiritual, to the gentle urgings of the Holy Spirit deep with us. We don't need to force it. We need only to quiet ourselves and listen.
Application:
Today, make an effort to live moment to moment with the Spirit of God. Try to spend some time in a quiet place.
"Do not be afraid"
Tuesday, March 31, 2009
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
Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, “I was often rejected in My homeland and especially in Nazareth where I was born. As they knew Me and My family, they could not believe that I could speak as I did and that I had such mighty powers to heal and to bring back the dead to life.
The people looked at Me as just another man. They could not see that I was the Son of God and the Messiah sent by My Father to bring salvation to all the people of the world. Because of their lack of faith, I could not perform many mighty deeds there.
Am I better accepted today than when I lived in Israel? Am I still rejected by the people? I know that there are many people who have accepted Me and they live with great faith and they are My followers. They go to church and they pray every day. They follow the commandments of God and they are always ready to help the poor. These are My beloved disciples whom I bless every day and they live in close union with Me. However, there are many today who have rejected Me.
They fight against Me and My followers. They make fun of Me and the successor of St. Peter. Others are trying to destroy the Church I founded and spread all kinds of lies against Me and My Church. These are even worst than those who opposed Me during My public life.
They follow Satan and his evil ways. Do not be afraid of them because they will not last. I am now making all things new. Believe in Me, your Savior and your Friend. I will never abandon you. I live in you and I will give you the graces you need to stand up for Me. I love you all.”
Father Melvin
Current Message Public Message Our Lady of Emmitsburg To the World through Gianna Sul September 7, 2008 The Vigil of the Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary Dear little children, praised be Jesus! Thank you, little ones, for praying with all your heart. In this world there will always be inequality of the poor and of the wealthy. But in the next world, God dwells in glory and in equality. What you do in this world, God will reward you according to your deeds in the next. At some point, all can be in glory with Him, but the main key to dwelling in His glory is spiritual poverty. In all humility you must seek meekness and pray with a humble heart. In everything that you do, you must seek humility. Everything that you are gifted is a grace from God and is not of your doing. You alone can do nothing! Those who are poor truly have the upper hand, and it leads more quickly to spiritual poverty. However, there are many wealthy; and these, my children, give in the benevolence of their work. But everything granted is a gift from God whether it is your health, your appearance, your financial means, or even your spiritual component. Everything is from God! If He took that gift from you, you would have nothing! Live in humility now, so that in the next world you are rewarded more quickly this greater gift of reigning in glory with Jesus. A wonderful gift indeed, spiritual poverty, humility of heart! Pray, children. Pray with all your heart, and remember: Whether you are loved in this world or hated, if you are forgotten or if your good name is remembered, it does not matter because God knows. He will never forget you. He will always love you. If you continue to pray with a humble heart, your name is chosen to be among all the saints where a seat in His Kingdom has been reserved for you. So seek only God; and give Him glory, for He loves you. And if you desire to give me a gift, the greatest gift you can give to me is to live in humility and do all your works in Love, for Love, and through Love—that being my Son. Peace to you, as I bless you abundantly with the great gifts of Heaven and graces from the abode of my Son’s Most Sacred Heart. Thank you for responding to my call.

ALEXANDER THE GREAT IN AFRICA
(This section will explain why there were so many Greeks in Egypt (Kemet) and the Northern and Northeastern parts of Africa, as it relates to Black Saints).
In 360 B.C. Egypt (Kemet) fell again to the Macedonian, Alexander the Great. The age of Pharaohs ended with the 30th dynasty. Alexander went on to conquer Palestine in 332 B.C. closely united once again politically, if not ethnically, the people of both countries. (Not One reads in history about Hellenized Jews, or Hellenized Christians. This is one reason why they existed).
Candace, an Ethiopian Queen warned Alexander about drawing conclusions from the Ethiopian’s color. (Read about the Alexander Romance on the web).
(Candace means queen. To some extent, old peoples were named for what they looked like, or what they were. There were several so-called Kandakes—one much later on responsible for the conversion of her nation/territory to Christianity under the Ethiopian Eunuch, and the apostles Philip and Matthew).
Candace told Alexander, “We are whiter and brighter in our souls than the whitest of you,” she said according to the Alexander Romance legend.
Having heard the legend of Memnon, The black Ethiopian king who helped Priam (Laemedon in Greek Mythology) at Troy, Alexander visited Ethiopia.
He continued on to India, reporting the inhabitants to be “blacker than the rest of the world with the exception of the Ethiopians.” (Remember this, when you see the Indian saints, Barlaam, and Iosaph.)
Naturally, the Indians south of the Ganges were bronzed. (We have already mentioned that India, Africa partially formed the continent/tectonic plate of Gondwanaland eons prior. And that Africa and Arabia were once joined in a huge land mass).
Alexander died, and his lieutenants, the Ptolemies (323-30 B.C.) divided and ruled Egypt (Kemet). In 51 B.C. they succeeded by the most famous of Cleopatras (there were many). Egypt became a Roman province.
A hundred years prior (146 B.C.), the Romans had already turned black Carthage into Provincia Africana. Modern Tunisia and Tripolitania were taken later.
As Cleopatra reigned, Rome conquered the African Numidian Kingdom of Juba (Jueben). Some of the readers may remember grandparents, or great- grandparents being told of an African (en) slave (d) dance by the same name.
By 40 B.C. Romans had solidified holdings in Mauretania, Africa Nova, and Africa Vetus. These areas formed Africa Proconsularis, Mauretania Caesariensis with the capital at Caesarea, and Tripolitania, or Tingitia with the capital at Tingis.
THIS WRITER SUBMITS THAT ON OLD GREEK, ROMAN, AND LATER AL ISLAM, NOR OTTOMAN TURK MAPS, THERE WAS NO NORTH AFRICA—A RACIST CONCEPT.
From Africa to the wall of Hadrian at the English – Scottish border, on the river Tyne, south Midlothian county, Rome, a major center of civilization for 2000 years, consolidated much of the then known world into one political entity (with the exception of the Chinese and Indians).
Rome controlled much of the Middle and near East, what is now Romania, Bulgaria (from where the Roman Emperor Diocletian several hundred years later conducted his Christian persecutions), Yugoslavia, parts of what was Russia’s old USSR, Spain, Great Britain, Italy, France, Germany, and Switzerlamd
Black- Roman contact proved more extensive than in just Kemet and areas west. Considerable evidence exists of black presence throughout the Greco-Roman world (Remember the Black wrestlers and athletes on old Greek vases we mentioned?)
This proved true in cities along or near the African coast in the Northern part of the continent. And Roman influence would be found in western Africa, south of Tingis, Caesarea, Cyrenaica, and areas southwest and southeast of Darius, south of Marmarica, Libya, and Egypt (Kemet).
We know that Tripolitania traded with Central Africa. (We have already posited—as goes trade, so goes ideas, called diffusion, or dispersion).
We know that one of the Caesars at one time received a 3,000,000 Librae contribution from Kinshasa (Congo) area. We know that from the same general region, elephant tusks were imported. Old Roman charts (See Barrington) showed mapping down well into what is now modern Chad.
Greeks and Romans in fact used the word Ethiopians, to designate several dark races, “the yardsticks by which they measured colored peoples.”
Blackness and Ethiopian wee often synonymous, as people were named according to their appearances. Herodotus described Ethiopians as “most ulotrichous,” crisp or wooly-headed.
Greeks and Romans also used another tem, Mauri, (Greek, Moros), as an all inclusive, political equivalent for Aethiopes. The word included Ethiopians.
The country and civil provinces called Mauretania (there were at least two), received their name from the color of their inhabitants. For Romans and Greeks “had no theories of dark-race inferiority. They thought color to be a physical and/or attribute of geographic location.” Color was not considered a quality with which to judge men. “Whether the Ethiopian was ambassador, adventurer, prisoner of war, or slave, he was not excluded by blackness.”
Near the end of the 1st century after Christ Jesus, Septimus Flacus, a legate (consul officer) of Augustus invaded the interior Ethiopian territory “three months’ journey distance from beyond the country of the Garamantes.”
As there is no Garamantes today, presumably the general’s report meant the Oasis of Garamantes, near modern Fezza Libya. Julius Maternus commanded a second foray. We know he stopped at Garma, 13 degrees longitude, 40 degrees latitude, in the Phazania region of Libya, southwest Africa.
With the arrival of Cephas Simon Peter, and Paul in Rome, the Eternal City became one of the headquarters of The Way, the Church established by Yeshua, Jesus, the Christ. (Remember—Yeshua established one Church. Man split it! But most, if not all are “still His children.”)
Throughout this mesh of territories, kingdoms and states controlled by Mighty Rome, Africans traveled freely in it. An earlier branch headquarters had been set up in the African city of Alexandria.
The African, St. Mark (Gospel of Mark), was its first bishop. Some say Mark (aka John Marcus, or John Mark) was the disciple of Peter himself. Others say he followed Paul.
It was through this Roman Empire and its civil provinces and administration that God chose to systematically spread the Church, though the Church itself was nurtured initially in Africa. And was Africa that would her initial impetus. Indeed, in early Christian literature, the Latin Church was African in thought. (See Tertullian, Origen, Augustine of Hippo, Cyprian of Carthage, Denis of Alexandria, in other volumes of this series, Vol. II, and Writings of the Black Saints, and Annals of the Black Saints.
Around the year(s) 29 A.D. to 33 A.D. upon Yeshua’s selection of Cephas, Simon Peter, as rock and Keeper of the Keys, the one Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church came into being. Yeshua promised his Christian Church would prevail against even the gates of hell. Peter was first among equals. But based upon his acclamation of Christ as Messiah (Who has told you this?) —and his faith (though he was to deny Christ later), Yeshua-- Jesus, the Christ-- appointed him head.
Christians should be aware Peter went to Africa (with John Marcus?), then on to Antioch, where he set up the Church (which became one of the Eastern Sees or headquarters), before he went to Rome. As sayd, the Apostles methodically began conversions in each of Tome’s civil divisions. These convenient sized administrative dioceses are units, which the Church retains today.
In the Eastern Church (and Oriental Church), impetus increased when the Roman Emperor Constantine fixed the capital at Byzantium in 330 A.D. For the next 724 years, Churches east and west made one Holy Catholic and Apostolic body.

"I suffer for you today"
Friday, April 03, 2009
Dear Friends,
Now on the occasion of the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the crowd one prisoner whom they wished. And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
So when they had assembled, Pilate said to them, "Which one do you want me to release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus called Messiah?" For he knew that it was out of envy that they had handed him over.
While he was still seated on the bench, his wife sent him a message, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man. I suffered much in a dream today because of him." The chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas but to destroy Jesus.
The governor said to them in reply, "Which if the two do you want me to release to you?" They answered, "Barabbas!" Pilate said to them, "Then what shall I do with Jesus called Messiah?" They all said, "Let him be crucified!" But he said, "Why? What evil has he done?" They only shouted the louder, "Let him be crucified!"
When Pilate saw that he was not succeeding at all, but that a riot was breaking out instead, he took water and washed his hands in the sight of the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood. Look to it yourselves." And the whole people said in reply, "His blood be upon us and upon our children." Then he released Barabbas to them, but after he had Jesus scourged, he handed him over to be crucified. Matthew 27:15-26
Here is the message Our Lord gave Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, "As you can see My trial before Pilate was a farce. Although he said that I was innocent, he had Me scourged and then handed Me over to the soldiers to be crucified. He had a notorious prisoner released instead of Me.
For the scourging the soldiers tied Me to a pillar and stripped Me. Then they started beating Me with long whips with some metal on the tips. This metal would enter My skin and tear out My flesh every time. At the end I was bleeding all over My body and I was lying on the floor covered with blood. I had no more strength to stand up. After the whipping was over, they placed a crown of thorns on My head driving the thorns into My flesh. Blood poured out of these wounds into My eyes and on the face.
My dear friends, I accepted all this suffering for you because I love you. I am indeed your Savior who paid the price for all your sins. I accepted to suffer and to die on the cross so that you would become My friend and live in union with Me every day. My heart is full of mercy for you, so come to Me and repent of your sins. I will take them all away. Come to the cross today and contemplate Me, Your Savior, as I suffer for you today."

"The gift of Myself"
Thursday, April 02, 2009
Dear Friends,
Jesus withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself. The crowds heard of this and followed him on foot from their towns. When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick.
When it was evening, the disciples approached him and said, "This is a deserted place and it is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves." Jesus said to them, "There is no need for them to go away; give them some food yourselves." But they said to him, "Five loaves and two fish are all we have here."
Then he said, "Bring them here to me," and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds. They all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the fragments left over-twelve wicker baskets full. Those who ate were about five thousand men, not counting women and children. Matthew 14:13-21
Here is another message from Our Lord addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, "During My public life, often large crowds followed Me. When I went to a deserted area, they would gather there by the thousands. I would heal the sick and teach them. A number of times I multiplied loaves of bread and fish to feed all these people. I had the Apostles to help Me distribute all this food to the people.
I know for the Jewish people these feeding in the desert brought back to them what happened to their ancestors when they spent forty years in the desert. My Father gave them manna to eat every day. This miracle was to bring them to believe that I was doing the Father's work and in time I would be accepted as the Son of the Father.
For you who are My followers today, this miracle brings you to another miracle, that of the Eucharist. The Eucharist is the food for your soul. I am truly present in the host and in the chalice so that I can come and live in your heart. I would like that all the people of the world would hunger for the Eucharist and come to receive Me regularly. It is the greatest gift that I left you, the gift of Myself. Repent of your sins and come to receive Me every day if it is possible. Come and live in union with Me."
Father Melvin
Message to Mirjana on Apil 2, 2009
"Dear children, God's love is in my words. My children, that is the love which desires to turn you to justice and truth. That is the love which desires to save you from delusion. And what about you, my children? Your hearts remain closed; they are hard and do not respond to my calls. They are insincere. With a motherly love I am praying for you, because I desire for all of you to resurrect in my Son. Thank you."
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 05 - I call you today to complete surrend
NOTE DATE: 2005 Medjugorje seer claims Pope appeared to him
www.spiritdaily.com
A friend of ours close to Medjugorje seer Ivan Dragicevic of Bosnia-Hercegovina writes, "At Ivan's apparition tonight (4/2) Ivan was recommending intentions to Our Lady when the Pope appeared on her left. He was smiling, young and very happy. All in white with a long gold cape. Our Lady said to Ivan: 'this is my son; he is with me.' Personally, I have never seen Ivan so happy."
"We adore You, Jesus Eucharist. We adore Your body and blood given for us and for all in the remission of sins. ... As we adore You, how can we not think about the many things we should do to give You glory? ... Help us, Jesus, to understand that 'to do' in Your Church, .... it is important above all 'to be', that is, to stay with You in adoration, in Your gentle company." (Pope John Paul II, March 18, 2005).
Mother Teresa Anyone is capable of going to Heaven. Heaven is our home. Dying is not the end, it is just the beginning. Death is a continuation of life. This is the meaning of eternal life; it is where our soul goes to God, to be in the presence of God, to see God, to speak to God, to continue loving Him with greater love. We only surrender our body in death - our heart and our soul live forever.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Observe well that as long as you are displeased by the temptations you have nothing to fear. But why are you sorry about this, if not because you don't want to experience it? These troublesome temptations come from the evil of the devil. But the displeasure and suffering we experience come from the mercy of God, who, contrary to our enemy's will, draws holy tribulations from malice, through which He purifies the gold that wants to be part of His treasure.
Furthermore, your temptations come from the devil but your suffering and afflictions come from God and Paradise. The mother is from Babilonia, but the children are from Jerusalem. Despise the temptation and embrace the tribulation. No, no, my daughter, let the wind blow, and do not believe the noise of leaves is the blast of arms (Letters III, pp 636-637).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
05-Be righteously angry at wrongs!
"When more get mad, not because they lose money, but because right is ignored and wrong enthroned, then the fires will come back to democracy. And these fires will burn like beacons summoning men to a finer and better world."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html
Once the Lord said to me, Act like a beggar who does not back away when he gets more alms [than he asked for], but offers thanks the more fervently. You too should not back away and say that you are not worthy of receiving greater graces when I give them to you. I know you are unworthy, but rejoice all the more and take as many treasures from My Heart as you can carry, for then you will please Me more. And I will tell you one more thing: Take these graces not only for yourself, but also for others; that is, encourage the souls with whom you come in contact to trust in My infinite mercy. Oh, how I love those souls who have complete confidence in Me. I will do everything for them. (294)
Ask of my faithful servant [Father Sopocko] that, on this day, he tell the whole world of My great mercy; that whoever approaches the Fount of Life on this day will be granted complete remission of sins and punishment.
Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy.
Oh, how much I am hurt by a soul's distrust! Such a soul professes that I am Holy and Just, but does not believe that I am Mercy and does not trust in My Goodness. Even the devils glorify My Justice but do not believe in My Goodness.
My Heart rejoices in this title of Mercy. (300)
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.
APRIL 5 - I CALL YOU TO SURRENDER
Today the Blessed Mother speaks of both surrender and joy:
"Dear Children, I call you today to complete surrender to God-to great joy and peace which only God can give. I am with you and I intercede for you every day before God (Monthly Message March 25, 1989).
Christ also speaks of the rewards of abandoning oneself to God:
Peter began to say to him, "Look, we have left everything and followed you. " Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold…" (Mk 10:28-30).
Reflection:
Following Christ, surrendering ourselves to his care, is accompanied by beautiful gifts of the Holy Spirit, chief among them being inner peace. Yet it is a seeming paradox that in abandoning ourselves, placing ourselves totally at God's disposal, we should at the same time experience a profound freedom of spirit. But this is because all our cares, worries, and problems are no longer ours, but the Lord's. We become like trusting children again, confident and safe in the hands of our Father.
Application:
Mindful of Our Lady's message today, surrender yourself again to the Lord, using this prayer composed by St. Teresa of Avila:
Lord, grant that I may always allow myself to be guided by you, always follow your plans, and perfectly accomplish your will.
Grant that in all things, great and small, today and all the days of my life, I may do whatever you require of me. Help me to respond to the slightest prompting of your grace, so that I may be a trustworthy instrument for your honor.
May your will be done in time and in eternity---by me, in me, and through me. Amen.
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 04 - You will encounter God
"For Christians, the greatest gift is certainly Jesus, our salvation. In the Eucharist He wished to remain with us: He became our 'viaticum', that is, our spiritual nourishment along the path of life. He sustains us in trials and difficulties: He makes us firm in hope and in everyday commitments" (Pope John Paul II, Jan. 15, 2005).
Mother Teresa Never let anything so fill you with pain or sorrow so as to make you forget the joy of Christ Risen
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 4 I know the Lord permits the devil to make these assaults, because His mercy renders you dear to Him, and He wants you to be similar to Him in the anguish of the desert, the garden and the Cross. But you must defend yourselves, cast aside and despising his evil insinuations in the name of God and Holy obedience (Letters III, p 588).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Not knowing the absolutes of goodness have got us into the mess we're in!
"Democracy today finds it hard to make up its mind on what is right. Communism, on the contrary, made up its mind on what was wrong. All its passions were devoted to evil. Evil today is starting the fires that are burning down the world. Leadership in democracies today cannot be expected to come out of the ashes of spineless indifference."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
The words of Jesus during my perpetual vows: My spouse, our hearts are joined forever. Remember to Whom you have vowed... everything cannot be put into words.
My petition while we were lying prostrate under the pall. I begged the Lord to grant me the grace of never consciously and deliberately offending Him by even the smallest sin or imperfection.
Jesus, I trust in You! Jesus, I love You with all my heart! When times are most difficult, You are my Mother.
For love of You, O Jesus, I die completely to myself today and begin to live for the greater glory of Your Holy Name.
Love, it is for love of You, O Most Holy Trinity, that I offer myself to You as an oblation of praise, as a holocaust of total self-immolation. And through this self-immolation, I desire the exaltation of Your Name, O Lord. I cast myself as a little rosebud at Your feet, O Lord, and may the fragrance of this flower be known to You alone. (239)
MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
APRIL 4 - YOU WILL ENCOUNTER GOD
In her monthly message for October, 1989, Our Lady said:
"Dear children, today I am also inviting you to prayer.
I am always calling you, but you are still far away. Therefore, from today, seriously commit yourselves to dedicating time to God. I am with you and I wish to teach you to pray with the heart. In prayer with the heart, you will encounter God. Therefore, dear children, pray, pray, pray." (Monthly Message October 25, 1989).
The conditions of quiet and solitude are needed to pray with the heart. In the gospels, Jesus often withdrew to a place of quiet:
The apostles gathered around Jesus, and told him all that they had done and taught. He said to them, "Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while." For many were coming and going, and they had no time even to eat (Mk 6:30-31).
Reflection:
Ohiyesa, a Santee Dakota Indian, once said:
In the life of the Indian there is only one inevitable duty the duty of prayer the daily recognition of the unseen and the eternal. He sees no need for setting apart one day in seven as a holy day, since to him all days are God's.
In the past, some of us have suffered from a mentality that tended to reject anything beyond ourselves. Whatever was unseen or eternal remained invisible to us. We were skeptical, scientific, task-oriented, self-centered, unreflective. It was like racing down a country highway at top speed, hardly tuned in to the rich vitality of life that surrounded us. When we stopped the car and explored the terrain, we could suddenly smell the grasses, hear birds singing, perhaps see a whole community in an anthill, or watch a darting squirrel.
Quiet prayer or meditation is not something we create on our own. It is largely a matter of shifting our attention, of being open to the spiritual, to the gentle urgings of the Holy Spirit deep with us. We don't need to force it. We need only to quiet ourselves and listen.
Application:
Today, make an effort to live moment to moment with the Spirit of God. Try to spend some time in a quiet place.
"Do not be afraid"
Tuesday, March 31, 2009
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
Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, “I was often rejected in My homeland and especially in Nazareth where I was born. As they knew Me and My family, they could not believe that I could speak as I did and that I had such mighty powers to heal and to bring back the dead to life.
The people looked at Me as just another man. They could not see that I was the Son of God and the Messiah sent by My Father to bring salvation to all the people of the world. Because of their lack of faith, I could not perform many mighty deeds there.
Am I better accepted today than when I lived in Israel? Am I still rejected by the people? I know that there are many people who have accepted Me and they live with great faith and they are My followers. They go to church and they pray every day. They follow the commandments of God and they are always ready to help the poor. These are My beloved disciples whom I bless every day and they live in close union with Me. However, there are many today who have rejected Me.
They fight against Me and My followers. They make fun of Me and the successor of St. Peter. Others are trying to destroy the Church I founded and spread all kinds of lies against Me and My Church. These are even worst than those who opposed Me during My public life.
They follow Satan and his evil ways. Do not be afraid of them because they will not last. I am now making all things new. Believe in Me, your Savior and your Friend. I will never abandon you. I live in you and I will give you the graces you need to stand up for Me. I love you all.”
Father Melvin
Current Message Public Message Our Lady of Emmitsburg To the World through Gianna Sul September 7, 2008 The Vigil of the Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary Dear little children, praised be Jesus! Thank you, little ones, for praying with all your heart. In this world there will always be inequality of the poor and of the wealthy. But in the next world, God dwells in glory and in equality. What you do in this world, God will reward you according to your deeds in the next. At some point, all can be in glory with Him, but the main key to dwelling in His glory is spiritual poverty. In all humility you must seek meekness and pray with a humble heart. In everything that you do, you must seek humility. Everything that you are gifted is a grace from God and is not of your doing. You alone can do nothing! Those who are poor truly have the upper hand, and it leads more quickly to spiritual poverty. However, there are many wealthy; and these, my children, give in the benevolence of their work. But everything granted is a gift from God whether it is your health, your appearance, your financial means, or even your spiritual component. Everything is from God! If He took that gift from you, you would have nothing! Live in humility now, so that in the next world you are rewarded more quickly this greater gift of reigning in glory with Jesus. A wonderful gift indeed, spiritual poverty, humility of heart! Pray, children. Pray with all your heart, and remember: Whether you are loved in this world or hated, if you are forgotten or if your good name is remembered, it does not matter because God knows. He will never forget you. He will always love you. If you continue to pray with a humble heart, your name is chosen to be among all the saints where a seat in His Kingdom has been reserved for you. So seek only God; and give Him glory, for He loves you. And if you desire to give me a gift, the greatest gift you can give to me is to live in humility and do all your works in Love, for Love, and through Love—that being my Son. Peace to you, as I bless you abundantly with the great gifts of Heaven and graces from the abode of my Son’s Most Sacred Heart. Thank you for responding to my call.

But one night, Peter dreamed he had go with Mark, to Rome and then to Alexandria, Kemet. Mark preached in Rome, and then returned to Kemet. His efforts drew many to Christ. He finally landed in Alexandria.
Another tradition by Eusebius, accords Mark the first bishop of Alexandria. As he entered the city gates, a sandal rap broke. A shoemaker was chosen to fix the leather—Anianus. He became Mark’s first disciple and convert to Yeshua, Jesus the Christ in Alexandria.
Enemies, however, sought out Mark. The writer of the Gospel of Mark after sufficient teaching, appointed Anianus bishop, and ordained three priests and seven deacons. Leaving the city, he told them to "serve and comfort the faithful brethren.”
After some years, Mark returned. The Christian community had grown considerably. But his enemies had not forgotten him. They jailed him.
On the following morning, Mark’s neck was tied with a rope. The malefactors dragged him by the neck from Alexandria up to the little port of Bucoles until he died.
They attempted to burn the body. The flames would not touch it. Christians in the community claimed the remains, burying it in a Church Mark had founded. It is said he is the first Christian martyr of the Church in Kemet.
He is credited with writing one of the four Christian canonical gospels, or at least his name and influence is attached to it. Severus, Bishop of Al-Ushmunain, in late tenth century in his Life of Apostle and Evangelist Mark, said Mark was one of the wine pouring servants that Jesus turned from water at marriage feast of Cana. Severus goes on to say that, Mark’s house was where Jesus appeared to disciples who were hiding after His resurrection dead.
Anianus, the shoemaker of the sandal of Mark, became a saint, whose memorial is celebrated under Anianus.

My family was wealthy. But wanting to be on my own, I left it for Alexandria, Kemet. But through the grace of God, I was called to Christianity, after visiting Jerusalem, the places where Yeshua Maryam, and the apostles walked and talked, the Palestine Holy Land
At a memorial service there, called the Exaltation of the Cross, I pressed through the crowds to get a good place in the Church. But a mysterious force did not allow me to enter it. I could not pass the doorway.
I became overwhelmed with grief for my life’s activities up to then. I spiritually asked Maryam for her blessing,help and remedy. An interior locution (voice) told me to go beyond the Jordan River. That a voice told me go to the desert, which I did immediately. I became a hermitess, and for 50 years practiced that in repentence, living on herbs and berries. Now one day a holy man, Zosimus from Palestine, and a friend of God came to visit. He informed me he would return in a year. When he returned, I had died, in 421 A.D. A lion with its paws, helped him dig my grave. Zosimus wrote of me.
My day of memorial ,3, April. If the Greek Rite, it is 1 April.

"I suffer for you today"
Friday, April 03, 2009
Dear Friends,
Now on the occasion of the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the crowd one prisoner whom they wished. And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas. So when they had assembled, Pilate said to them, “Which one do you want me to release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus called Messiah?”
For he knew that it was out of envy that they had handed him over. While he was still seated on the bench, his wife sent him a message, “Have nothing to do with that righteous man. I suffered much in a dream today because of him.” The chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas but to destroy Jesus.
The governor said to them in reply, “Which if the two do you want me to release to you?” They answered, “Barabbas!” Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do with Jesus called Messiah?” They all said, “Let him be crucified!”
But he said, “Why? What evil has he done?” They only shouted the louder, “Let him be crucified!” When Pilate saw that he was not succeeding at all, but that a riot was breaking out instead, he took water and washed his hands in the sight of the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this man’s blood.
Look to it yourselves.” And the whole people said in reply, “His blood be upon us and upon our children.” Then he released Barabbas to them, but after he had Jesus scourged, he handed him over to be crucified. Matthew 27:15–26
Here is the message Our Lord gave Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, “As you can see My trial before Pilate was a farce. Although he said that I was innocent, he had Me scourged and then handed Me over to the soldiers to be crucified. He had a notorious prisoner released instead of Me.
For the scourging the soldiers tied Me to a pillar and stripped Me. Then they started beating Me with long whips with some metal on the tips. This metal would enter My skin and tear out My flesh every time. At the end I was bleeding all over My body and I was lying on the floor covered with blood. I had no more strength to stand up. After the whipping was over, they placed a crown of thorns on My head driving the thorns into My flesh. Blood poured out of these wounds into My eyes and on the face.
My dear friends, I accepted all this suffering for you because I love you. I am indeed your Savior who paid the price for all your sins. I accepted to suffer and to die on the cross so that you would become My friend and live in union with Me every day. My heart is full of mercy for you, so come to Me and repent of your sins. I will take them all away. Come to the cross today and contemplate Me, Your Savior, as I suffer for you today.”

Powerful Vision and Message to littlest of servants April 2, 2009
While in Church this morning before Mass praying in Front of the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following visions and messages.
I saw what looked like a eruption of a volcano underneath the sea.
JESUS then spoke and told me that this would create waves of historic proportions which would wash ashore.
HE then said that soon many will find themselves before HIM in JUDGMENT. I then saw another volcano erupt and ash falling creating darkness and I then saw many people in this darkness of ash and they were falling to the ground dying.
JESUS spoke to me again and told me that soon many would find themselves before HIM in JUDGMENT.
I then saw many eruptions of volcanoes underneath the ocean and I saw great waves rise up and move toward land.
JESUS then spoke and told me that many undersea volcanoes worldwide would soon awaken.
HE continued and told me that soon many worldwide would find themselves before HIM in JUDGMENT.
I then saw an island and half of it fall into the ocean and a GREAT WALL OF WATER MOVING TOWARD LAND.
JESUS spoke again and told me that soon many would find themselves before HIM in JUDGMENT.
I then saw a volcano and a huge eruption with ash covering several states.
JESUS then spoke and told me that soon YELLOWSTONE WOULD ERUPT.
I then saw volcanoes and huge waves and I saw the word ABORTION over them.
JESUS then spoke and told me that many have rejected HIS LOVE AND MERCY and have continued to destroy HIS PRECIOUS LITTLE ONES.
That we are calling on the JUSTICE OF GOD by continuing to KILL HIS LITTLE ONES.
Then HE said again soon YELLOWSTONE WOULD ERUPT.
Later the ETERNAL FATHER spoke to me. He told me that because many have rejected the pleas of HIS SON and HIS DAUGHTER to come to MERCY and LOVE that now the ARM of HIS JUSTICE would fall upon us.
HE then said it not HIM who will punish unfairly but it is MANKIND whose has demanded HIS JUSTICE.
That HE takes no pleasure in having to chastise us and that HE DESIRES to shower HIS LOVE AND MERCY UPON US.
It is MAN who continues to destroy HIS PRECIOUS LITTLE ONES even before they have taken their first breath.
That MAN has taken what HE, the ETERNAL FATHER, has created to give life and turned it into a DEATH CHAMBER. THE WOMB (the FATHER is now shouting as HE wants all to hear HIS WORDS) was CREATED BY ME TO GIVE LIFE NOT TAKE IT AWAY.
HE continued and said that the HEAVENS are filled with the cries of HIS PRECIOUS LITTLE ONES as they are destroyed in the very place that is suppose to give them LIFE.
HOW LONG DOES MAN THINK THAT I WILL TOLERATE THIS ABOMINATION.
I WILL TELL YOU THAT I WILL PUT AN END TO THIS GREAT EVIL.
I WILL RESTORE MY CREATION SO THAT ONCE AGAIN THE WOMB WILL BECOME A PLACE OF LOVE, SECURITY, AND LIFE FOR MY PRECIOUS LITTLE ONES.
Later OUR LADY spoke and told me that MANKIND has taken what the FATHER has CREATED to be a place of life, security, and love for HIS LITTLE ONES and we have turned it into a place a death.
THAT THE WOMB IS NOW A DEATH CHAMBER. The WOMB where your SAVIOR was nourished and loved and then given to the world.
The WOMB which is supposed to be a place of LIFE AND LOVE has been turned into by MANKIND'S SELFISH DESIRES a place of HATE AND DEATH.
The WOMB instead of reflecting the GREAT GIFT OF THE ETERNAL FATHER OF LIFE REFLECTS satan's gift to mankind of DESTRUCTION AND DEATH.
JESUS then spoke and told me that this country, America, which had once recognized HIM as their KING now have rejected HIM.
I then saw the cross and it was on the ground and many people were stepping on it. I then looked at the CRUCIFIX in the Church and I then saw it turn into a coffin.
JESUS then spoke again and told me that we now worship death in this country.
That we have a culture of death instead of LIFE.
That we will now pay the price for this by suffering many and greatchastisements.
That we will be brought to our knees and our senses by these HAMMER BLOWS OF JUSTICE.
LET US PRAY THE ROSARY OF THE UNBORN AND ASK THE FATHER AND THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT
Messages to John Leary Feb.26-March 25,2009
Thursday, February 26, 2009
Jesus said: My people, in today’s reading from Moses (Deut. 30:15-20), he sets before the Israelites the blessing and the curse, and he asks them to choose life in following My Commandments. The Israelites were about to enter the Promised Land, and if they obeyed God, they would live in prosperity. But if they disobeyed God, then they would suffer punishment for their sins. This is what happened in that they prospered while they were close to Me. Then when they followed other gods, they were exiled to Babylon and lost their land. America has a similar promised land because of your belief in My law at the founding of your nation. You have the same choice to make-either the blessing or the curse.
Your country has chosen not to follow life, but you are following the death culture in your abortions, euthanasia, and wars. Because of this choice of following the gods of the world instead of Me, you also will have your land and nation taken away from you. This will come in the form of martial law and a loss of your freedoms as you will be joined in the North American Union with Canada and Mexico. Be prepared for this takeover as you will need to go to My refuges for protection before martial law. Fear not the evil ones since My angels will protect you and provide for your needs.
Friday, February 27, 2009
Jesus said: My people, when you see someone in need and you could help that person, you have an opportunity for grace in doing so. This is your Christian duty, but even more so in Lent you should be taking every opportunity to even look more to help people without being asked. The more charity that you perform, the more graces and spiritual treasures that you will store up for yourself in heaven.
You think first of the physical needs of people, but you can also reach out in faith to evangelize people to follow Me in their spiritual needs as well. If you can help save a soul from going to hell in their sins, you will be helping their soul which lives on forever after the body dies. Reach out with your prayers also, both for sinners on earth and for the souls in purgatory.
Jesus said: My people, I am showing you a cave in the hill as a place for a refuge. My angels could lead you to such a place of protection. You need to scout into the cave to make sure other animals are not using it for a shelter also. You also need to put a brush covering over the entrance as a protection from animals and to disguise it from the evil ones. My angels will provide you food and water to live, but you need to bring utensils, pans, and cups for eating.
A sleeping blanket and warm clothes would be needed to keep warm in a 50 F cave. You could test how far back to go in a cave with a match or lantern. When the flame goes out, there is not enough oxygen to breathe. A windup flashlight would be good for light. Living in a cave may be a little uncomfortable, but it could protect you from the weather outside. Trust in Me that I will provide various places or refuges for you to stay so you could be protected throughout the coming tribulation. Have patience and you will soon see My Era of Peace.

Jesus said: My people, this flowing water in a falls and a river is like the abundant graces that I make available to you during Lent. With your Lenten devotions you have many opportunities to gain graces with your prayers, fasting, and good works. If you go along as usual without gaining these graces, you are not taking advantage of the availability of My graces. When you repent and go to Confession as well as your Lenten devotions, your soul will benefit greatly.
Lent is a time to improve your spiritual life, and you need this help on your path to heaven. By detaching yourself more from the things of the world and your bad habits, you will be purifying your soul for when you meet Me at your judgment. Not everyone is properly prepared for their death, but you cannot even be sure that you will be alive tomorrow. Live the present moment now so you will always be prepared when I come to take you home to Me.
Jesus said: My people, there are some people who are drawn to make bets on winning jackpots in casinos or Lottery Sweepstakes. It is one thing to bet a small limited amount of money, but there are some who are compulsive gamblers who risk money they cannot afford to lose. It is this excessive gambling that is sinful and can cause a family to lose the money that they need to live on.
There is another kind of spiritual gambling with your soul. Some people are gambling that they are going to live a long life and they are putting off their conversion until tomorrow to have a good time today. You cannot be sure that you will live until to tomorrow if I call you home today. Better not to wait for your conversion, but do it now while you still have time in this world. Do not gamble with your soul, but be sure that you repent of your sins before you meet Me at your judgment. You are safer to not gamble at all in this world or with your soul.
(Matthew Gysel funeral service-vase of ashes) Jesus said: My people, this soul of Matthew has made it into the lower regions of purgatory because of your Masses and prayers for his soul.
Even when someone is not openly religious, they still could be leading a good life. It is the family’s prayers and Masses that can save such souls from going to hell. At one point in their judgment, they need to show Me that they love Me. If they fully reject Me through life and at their judgment, then these souls are condemning themselves to hell. Pray for Matthew continuously and he will one day come to heaven.
Sunday, March 1, 2009
Jesus said: My people, the first reading talks about the flood in Genesis that killed all the people but Noah and his family. There was a covenant made by God to man that water by a flood will never kill everyone again. We put a rainbow in the sky when it rains as a symbol of this covenant. Another covenant was made by God to man that I promised to come and die for all of you as a holy sacrifice so that all of your sins would be forgiven.
When you are baptized, original sin is forgiven. The symbol of washing with water in Baptism washes away your sins and the water is a link with this first covenant. The rainbow is a symbol also of new life in the Spirit as now you are joined with all the faithful in a common faith and belief in Me. Give praise and thanks to God for making all of these covenants with you.
Jesus said: My people, there are many conflicts going on all over the world because the evil one is influencing these wars. The financial problems of the world are also part of the evil one’s plan for eventual takeover. Many times I ask you to pray for peace and even more so during Lent because there is much dissension among the people of the world.
By keeping peace in your own hearts and families, you can also spread your love all around the world. When you pray during Lent, put an extra emphasis on praying for peace and the stoppage of wars because the enemy is trying to divide you and conquer you. Trust in My help because one day I will bring My peace in My Era of Peace.

Jesus said: My people, every year thousands die from influenza during the winter time. Imagine a year if there were a more virulent flu bug spread throughout the population. This is exactly one of the one world people’s plans to spread a pandemic virus through the chemtrails in the sky.
They have put these trails in the sky for so long, that people have seen them without being very concerned. A pandemic contagious virus could kill many people and reduce the population, which is what the one world government people desire in controlling fewer people. When you see many people dying from this epidemic, this would be another reason to call on Me to have your guardian angel lead you to My refuges where you would be healed from all sicknesses by looking on My luminous crosses or drinking from the miraculous spring water.
My refuges will provide you both spiritual and physical protection through the power of the angels to make you invisible. Trust in My coming protection during the tribulation because I send you the grace of My angel protection to help you endure the evil of this evil time. This time of evil will be brief before I will come in victory to establish My Era of Peace.
Jesus said: My people, there have been many people who have lost value in their houses, and their market value is much below their original mortgage. You have used an expression under water to describe the mortgage that is priced below fair market value. This vision of America’s ship of state under water is the same situation where your increasing deficits are about to bankrupt your country with little chance of finding enough buyers to hold your debt.
Your banks and insurance companies still have a lot of bad loans on their books that they are afraid to write off as losses because it would bankrupt these institutions. You will soon see that it is impossible to bailout all of your big banks, and once they collapse, your economy will fall with them. This chaos will be one of the means that will enable the one world people to declare martial law and form the North American Union with the amero as the new currency.
As you see this chaos and martial law declared, this will be a sign to you to have My angels lead you to your refuge of protection. This evil reign will be short with the Antichrist, as I will defeat him and bring about My Era of Peace.
Tuesday, March 3, 2009
Jesus said: My people, in the midst of your many troubled financial times, many people are being brought to their knees to pray for My help. I know all of your needs, but I do not force My graces and blessings on you. You should also acknowledge that without Me, you can do nothing.
You are always dependent on Me, but you should be following and seeking My ways instead of man’s ways. If you are drawn to pray to Me for your petitions, then you must change your priorities of time to make time for your prayers. It is better to pray your prayers during the day instead of leaving them to your bedtime when you are too tired to pray.
Some have a desire to pray My Blessed Mother’s rosary, which is your weapon against the demons. But when you pray, you should pray slowly and reverently. Do not rush through your prayers because prayer is like expressing your love for Me. I want to be able to hear your prayers without saying them so fast that you can barely understand what you are praying. Several slow rosaries with fervor are much more pleasing to Me than many rushed rosaries.
By praying properly and in a planned time, you will find that your prayer life will be much more rewarding in giving peace to your soul. Let this Lent be your inspiration to pray more and avoid all of the worries and distractions of worldly things. I know that you need to survive and take care of your household, but with faith and trust in Me, you will have what you need without seeking more than you need.
Jesus said: My people, you are aware of fiber optic cables coming into your house which has two-way communication. High definition digital cable enables the Cable company to see and hear what is going on by your TV. You have learned of another potential threat to your brain functions when analog broadcast will go over to digital signals.
The broadcast signals could embed a silent sound signal with a similar frequency to your brain waves.
This signal could affect your subconscious mind to do things against your will. I told you to remove your TVs and computer monitors out of your house after the Warning to avoid looking at the Antichrist. This latest technology may be another reason to avoid watching TV for long periods of time. An analog signal would create static when using this silent ELF signal, but a digital signal would not be affected, so you would not know if it was being used or not. Limit your TV watching to a minimum to protect your mental faculties. Call on My protection and heed My warnings.
Wednesday, March 4, 2009: (St. Casimir)
Jesus said: My people, just as I was persecuted and crucified on the cross, many of My followers have been persecuted and martyred for My sake over the years. To give up your life to keep your faith, takes courage and determination in the face of death. This is why My martyrs for the faith have a special place in heaven for their bravery. But it is the evil ones who have to suffer for these unjust killings.
Those, who have been martyred, have become instant saints, and I ease their suffering at the moment of death. In some parts of the world there are still Christians being killed for their faith. A time of such persecution is coming again in the tribulation which is one reason why My faithful will need protection at My refuges.
Fear not this time because you will either be instant saints in heaven if you are martyred, or you will be protected at My refuges until your reward in My Era of Peace. Be faithful to Me no matter what happens to you, and you will eventually be with Me forever in heaven.
Jesus said: My people, seeing this venomous snake in a house represents how the serpent, Satan, has slithered into your government. Your new government will be seeking more abortions, control of your health care, the beginning of mandatory smart cards and eventually chips in the body, and a planned bankruptcy through overspending.
There is a planned joining of America with Mexico and Canada into the North American Union. This same demon is sowing seeds of division in My Church between the schismatic church and My faithful remnant.
Be watchful of any New Age teachings and leave that church if they are using these things, since they are worshiping the things of the world instead of Me. Call on My help, and My angels will defend you against any evil ones around you. Trust in My power to defeat the evil ones and you will have no worries.
Thursday, March 5, 2009
Jesus said: My people, in your youth you depended on Me for watching over you, and still in your later years you depend on Me, but with a greater knowledge of My place in your life. Some people learn their basic faith while they are young, but they do not work on growing their faith as they get older.
This is why some fall away from their faith because they stop going to church and rely more on their own means. Your faith will grow cold if you forget your daily prayers and your Sunday Mass. Keep your love for Me vibrant every day in your prayers and consecrate everything over to Me.
By seeing and recognizing your total dependence on Me, you are more able to grow in your faith beyond the faith that you had as a child. You need child-like faith, but your life’s goals need to be centered on how to serve Me the best that you can. By having an open heart to My mission for your life, then I can mold you into the Christian that I want you to be. Give praise and thanks to your God for all that I do in your life, and you will one day receive your reward in coming to heaven.
Prayer Group:
Jesus said: My people, there are many traditional Catholics that have fought to preserve the old rites of the Roman Catholic Church. This smoke that put this knight to sleep is part of the many changes in My Church that have done away with many of your old traditions.
In the old Church the statues and crucifixes were covered with purple cloths during Lent. In churches of today you would be fortunate to find some traditional statues and the large crucifix on the altar. Some churches cover their statues, but only a few can be seen. Take advantage of your Lenten devotions to work on improving your spiritual life.
Jesus said: My people, I know that many of you had difficulty looking at a gay marriage which I abhor in My Church. I created man and woman to be joined in marriage and not same sexes.
This is an open defiance of My institution of Marriage between a man and woman in the sacrament of Matrimony. I love all peoples, but relations between same sexes are as sinful as two of the opposite sex living together in fornication. This is not about rights, but it is against My Commandment. Only relations under the marriage covenant are lawful.
Jesus said: My people, there are signs all around you of how world globalism is trying to take over the world in the name of the new world order. Attempts to form continental unions is your most open sign of this evil trying to take over.
The elitists of the world think that they know best how to lead the people of the world. Be aware to discourage this takeover because it will lead to the Antichrist’s takeover. There will be a battle over putting chips in everyone and controlling your personal information. Evil people are trying to implement global control, but as national martial law comes, you will need to go to My refuges for protection.
Jesus said: My people, this is the future by the one world people in that they want to force everyone to have a chip in the body in order to buy and sell. Refuse to take any chip in your body that could control your mind and your free will. This is why you need to come to My refuges for protection before the men in black come to your homes to try and force mandatory chips in the body on you.
Should they capture you and you refuse these chips, they will then place you in the death camps to gas you and cremate your body. Call on My help so you can leave your homes before the evil ones come for you.
Jesus said: My people, you are seeing the beginning of a national health program that will computerize all of your health problems that will be available to those who want to discriminate against you.
This was the Eugenics plan of the Nazis in World War II. It will be the mandatory chip in the body plan that will be enforced by your security departments as your new secret police. Avoid this health plan at all costs because it is a deception of the new world order planners.
Jesus said: My people, you are now seeing the depression word being mentioned even as your politicians fought earlier to avoid the recession word. Each month has brought more lost jobs, more calls for bailouts, and more businesses on the brink of bankruptcy. The one world people have created this crisis, but all of their money plans to fix this downturn have not worked.
Their solution to deficit spend is really meant to bankrupt your government. This goal of a takeover has been their plan right along from the beginning. Bankruptcy of the government will lead to chaos and martial law which will result in the North American Union of the one world people. Prepare to come to My refuges as martial law is about to be declared.
Jesus said: My people, it is important that you do everything to protect your peace in your soul by My grace. Do not become worried or anxious of the current events, but do what is prudent for your physical and spiritual protection. When you have full trust in My protection, there is no cause to worry.
Some will be martyred, but they will become instant saints with little pain. Others will be led to My refuges to have all of your needs provided for. So have full trust in My watching over you, and all of the tribulation will not disturb your peace.

Jesus said: My people, as you start to see warmer weather prevail, it is like a new lease on life when you can get out into your yard to clean up the winter’s broken tree branches and start your spring cleaning inside your house as well. Many of you are so taken up with your outward appearances that you forget to take a look at your inner appearances in your soul. You can look at your Lenten Season as your spiritual spring cleaning of all of your sins and bad habits.
By going to Confession and really examining some of the root causes of your sins, you can clean out the sinful trash in your life and make a better inner appearance to Me with a clean soul. Keep your focus on Me every day in your prayers, and be more concerned with keeping your soul swept clean than your outward appearance on your body or in your house. In other words spring cleaning should be good for both your soul and your house.
Jesus said: My people, your Warning experience will be unique for each person. You will be reviewing your life’s experiences, but you will also be viewing your life from the perspective of other people in your life. You will see how you helped people, and how you may have misled someone into sin. Most of all you will understand what I thought of your actions in every minute of every day of your life.
You will see how you spent your time for good things and how you may have wasted time in your life following your own will. You will be sorry for your sins, and you will desire Confession to make amends for the sins that you did not tell. Once you are back in your body, you will have a second chance to change your ways to live more for following Me than your own ways.
When you are faced with your mini-judgment, you will see how short this life is and how important it is to focus your life more on serving Me than on following the devil’s temptations of worldly comforts and pleasures. Use this Warning to come closer to Me as you realize the importance of love for Me and love for all of those people that you will encounter in life. Always be reaching out to save souls for heaven.
Saturday, March 7, 2009: (St. Perpetua and St. Felicity)
Jesus said: My people, in today’s Gospel I am asking everyone to love and pray for your enemies. I am all loving and I love all of My creatures, even those that do not fully love Me. This loving of enemies is difficult for the earthly body, but I am constantly calling you to be perfect as My heavenly Father is perfect.
You have a choice in this life to either be purified by your purgatory on earth, or in real purgatory after your death. As you saw in the vision, in order to gain heaven, you must detach yourself from every thing and love of the world so you can be fully focused on loving Me. You will be constantly singing My praises as you worship and adore Me.
This is why your daily prayers and your coming to Me in daily Adoration is preparing you for being with Me in heaven. Everything on earth is passing away so you should be most focused on those attentions of the soul which will live on forever after the body dies. Everything, that you can do on earth to store up heavenly treasures, will help offset your sins at your judgment. Use this Lenten time to help purify your soul in its preparation for one day being in heaven with all of My saints and angels.
Jesus said: My people, I told you earlier that you could see another war this year, and the target would be over Iran’s nuclear program. There is a concern, especially in Israel, if Iran would have nuclear weapons because they have missiles to deliver such a bomb. Israel has been threatening to bomb the nuclear plant unless Iran stops its program. Iran has also threatened to destroy all tankers leaving the Persian Gulf if they are attacked. Up to now there has only been a war of words, but this will soon change as Israel is afraid of a Nuclear Iran.
Such an attack could quickly draw America into war trying to defend the oil tankers. Once a war happens, oil prices would go high because of less access to the oil ports. America is financially in no condition to suffer an oil loss and to pay for another war. Many need to pray for peace in this area so hearts and minds could be changed to stop such a war from starting.
Sunday, March 8, 2009
Jesus said: My people, today’s first reading about Abraham being asked by God to offer up his only son, Isaac, takes some explanation to understand. Isaac had been born late in life when Sarah’s normal time to have children was over. It was a miracle that he was born, and Isaac was the only heir to the many descendants promised by God. This is why it was difficult for Abraham to carry out the Lord’s request.
It was out of obedience and love of God that he was ready to sacrifice his only son. Think a moment if the Lord asked you to sacrifice your first born.
As much as you love God and your children, it would be very difficult to even think of carrying out that sacrifice. God the Father so loves all of mankind that He offered up My life as a man for the redemption of all of your souls, even though I was His only begotten Son. Love of God is so important that this love must prevail over any other person or thing in this life.
This is why God the Father tested Abraham’s love and obedience. Abraham was later rewarded in many ways for his sole allegiance to God, even over his only son. This is also why your love for Me is also even more important than even your own life. Many people and saints would rather give up their life than give up their faith. This would be another test that you may have to endure during the coming tribulation.
Jesus said: My people, I want you to pray for some people in your country that are having to deal with floods around their houses. Water damage can be very devastating to a house, especially if it takes days to recede.
Pray that the damage can be repaired so these people can move on with their lives. America is suffering many natural disasters, one right after the other. All of these disasters and financial problems are taking a toll on your people. Continue to keep strong in your prayers and call on Me in your needs.
Monday, March 9, 2009: (St. Frances of Rome)
Jesus said: My people, I am showing you more destruction from a heavy rainfall that was eroding hillsides and carrying away homes in the water. There will be some deaths from drowning. These people will be forced to rebuild in areas without flood plains. Again people are going to suffer worse destruction than I showed you before. Flooding, wind storms, tornadoes, ice storms, and hurricanes are natural disasters that will continue to harass your people because of your sins of abortion, now embryonic stem cell research, and your many sexual sins.
Pray for poor sinners and that your people will repent of their sins. Without repentance, more disasters will befall you. America is being brought to its knees because of your greed, arrogance, and material worship of things and money. You are seeing many freedoms being taken away until you will lose control of your country over to the one world people. Prepare to go to your interim and final refuges.
For Joan: Jesus said: My faithful people, your house with the Dozule cross will be an interim refuge for souls seeking My protection. There will be an angel of protection that will be visible to you who will keep the people invisible to the authorities.
The luminous cross will only be at the final refuges, but the interim refuges will have food, water, and shelters multiplied for your needs. I told you before that some interim refuges will become final refuges, but this will be revealed later. Have faith and trust in Me, since you are always dependant on Me for everything. Remain strong in your prayer life which will give you endurance through all of these events.
Jesus said: My people, many people have lost their jobs, have considerable losses in the current stock market, or have lost considerable value in their homes. Because of the economic hard times and the fear of losing their jobs, many people have also put off buying new cars or new homes. If they lost their job, they may have their cars repossessed or they may have to sell their new home in a bad market.
This is why many still have their old cars and the auto makers are having a hard time to sell their new cars. This just causes another downward spiral of more auto jobs being lost and the automakers are even in more danger of going into bankruptcy. This again becomes another problem for those calling for automakers to get more bailout money when it appears that bankruptcy is inevitable.
Many businesses are going to close their doors before lending from the banks will be restored. Even the stock market continues down, based on the new taxes and regulations being proposed. It is your deficit spending that could cause your country to go bankrupt before things could turn around. Pray for all of your people to have enough food and shelter to survive. You will soon be going to My refuges once your government fails.
Tuesday, March 10, 2009
Jesus said: My people, I am giving you a message of love because of how much I love everyone, even those who do not love Me. You can see My love in that I suffered and died on a cross for ransoming all of your sins. I give you My unconditional love because you are all My creations and I am an example for you to love everyone also. You need to strive to love even your enemies, if you want to work toward your perfection.
My son, I want you to teach My love for My people as well as any preparation that is needed for the tribulation. When everyone sees My love, you will know why I will go to great lengths in doing the impossible for protecting you from the evil ones at My refuges, and providing for your needs.
It is most important that you pray and give Me worship every day. This is why if you do not have a priest for Mass at the refuge, I will have My angels give you your daily Bread of Communion so I can be united with you in all of your trials.
When you see the world famine, the division in My Church, mandatory chips in the body, martial law, and the pandemic virus, you will know it is time to call on Me, and your guardian angel will lead you with a physical sign to the nearest refuge. Rejoice that you will be invisible to the evil ones on the way to your refuge. Everything that you need will be provided, so have full trust and faith in My watching over you. Know again that it is out of love that I am with you always in My Real Presence in My Host.
Jesus said: My people, during Lent you have been reading parts of the Book of Exodus both at Mass and in the Liturgy of the Hours. A good Bible study project would be to read the whole Book of Exodus so you can see all of the details from the various parts that you are reading. You are leading up to Passion Week which has a great parallel with the Passover from Egypt and My Last Supper before I became the Lamb sacrificed for all of mankind.
The Passover Meal of unleavened bread became My Body, and the wine became My Blood in the first Mass. This was the institution of My Eucharist that you share in every daily Mass. The more you read about the Exodus from Egypt, the more you will see this as the foreshadowing of why I came to the earth to save all of you from your sins.
Even some of your old movies can give you a feeling of living during the Exodus and My time on earth. Give praise and glory to God for giving you this gift of your salvation.
Wednesday, March 11, 2009
Jesus said: My people, I am giving you a preview of what it will be like when everyone will be called before Me in your Warning experience. You all will be drawn out of your bodies in your spirit body, and you will still experience all of your senses as a spirit. It will appear as you are moving quickly through a tunnel. You will be traveling through space toward My Light.
At that time you will then experience an illumination of your conscience, and you will experience your life review as if you had just died. You will be outside of time in the eternal now, as I will show you all the events in your life, both good and bad. You are being shown this again from other people’s perspective and in front of Me so you will be able to understand My judgment of your life.
You will see where you will be judged to heaven, purgatory, or hell, and you will have a small taste of where you were judged. Then you will travel quickly again back into your bodies in the present time, and you will be given a second chance to repent of your sins and change your sinful lives.
This Warning experience is My great mercy on all souls to wake you up spiritually, and prepare you for the coming tribulation of the Antichrist. You will always have your free will, but now you will have been warned not to take any microchip in your body and not to worship the Antichrist. After this Warning you should remove your TVs and computer monitors from your house so you are not misled by the Antichrist and his agents.
All of My faithful will be warned when it is time to go to My refuges for protection. You will be working feverishly to save as many souls as possible from going to hell, especially in your own family. Be prepared by frequent Confession and daily prayer, for you will need clean souls and My help to endure these end times. Trust and have faith in Me always because I love all of you so very much, and I do not want to lose even one soul to the evil one.
Wednesday, March 11, 2009
Jesus said: My people, it is hard for you to imagine a soul body burning amidst the sulfur stench of a molten hot volcano. This is why souls and demons in hell are very ugly looking because they feel burning constantly without being consumed by the fire. To be in this wretched place of hell with no love and without My presence is so terrible to imagine someone living in that environment for all eternity with no hope of getting any better.
These souls in hell are constantly being tormented by the demons as well as the rest of their suffering. If you saw the souls in hell, you would be struggling even more desperately to save souls from going to hell.
This is why souls that have near death experiences of going to hell, are really awakened to how their lives were so evil and they need to repent and change their lives. Seeing the pits of hell is a real wake-up call to change for the better.
You can come to Me out of love, which is the most desirable, but you can also come to Me out of the fear of being forever in hell. However you decide, it is much more important to strive for heaven than to be spiritually lazy in sin that could lead you to a judgment in hell.
Thursday, March 12, 2009
Jesus said: My people, these phone lines and cell phone towers represent the many communications that you make with each other. This is in addition to your daily conversations that you have with each other in person.
You spend every day talking with each other, but how long do you spend each day talking to Me in your prayers? I am always reminding you to leave time in your day for prayer time, and not just at bedtime when you are too tired to pray. If you truly love someone, then you will tell them every day and not just one hour on Sunday.
Prayer and faith in My answering prayer will get you through your many trials of the day. During Lent you should be more focused on Me in prayer and how you could improve your sinful lives.
I have even asked you many times to spend quiet time with Me in contemplative prayer so you can be open in your heart to listen to My words of advice. You spend a lot of time talking, but you should develop your skills of listening both to Me and to others. In addition to having a good prayer life for yourself, it would also be helpful to teach your children and grandchildren how to pray, so they have Me to rely on in hard times. Give praise and glory to Me, and thank Me for all that I have given you.
Prayer Group:
Jesus said: My people, I am showing you this man who had dirty hands from his labors. You know how some jobs can cause your hands to get dirty while you are working with the soil or working on machinery.
Then you have to scrub your hands clean before eating or coming into the house. In a spiritual way you also have sins on your hands from not following My Commandments as you should. In order to cleanse your sins, you need to call on Me in the priest to confess your sins and receive My absolution.
Once you are forgiven of your sins, then I send sanctifying grace into your soul to strengthen you against any further sins. Keep your soul and hands clean by frequent Confession.
Jesus said: My people, these statues and relics give you a commemoration of the saints that you are praying to as intercessors of the your prayer intentions to Me. Keep reading about their lives so they can be an example and an inspiration for your own lives.
Many saints stripped themselves of their wealth to give their money to the poor and depend on Me completely for everything. Follow the holiness of the lives of the saints and they will lead you closer to Me.
Jesus said: My people, I have shown you the saints before, but for most of My faithful purification may have to come through purgatory on earth or in real purgatory. There is a purgatory where souls may suffer being purified in preparation for coming into heaven. It is not easy to cleanse all the love of worldly things, but you must do so in order to have a complete focus on Me with no other gods before Me. Continue to strive to guard your soul from the temptations of the evil ones, and your reward will be great in heaven. Pray always for the poor souls in purgatory.
Jesus said: My people, at times your heart goes out to those that have lost everything in a devastating storm or tornado. When you collectively put your hands together, you can make short work of rebuilding a home.
Donations from the neighbors for the building supplies is another way of making a heartfelt contribution to restore one’s lost home. I tell you, those neighbors will never forget such a charity, and the new home owner will be more than willing to help his neighbors in return. This makes a true bond of love and friendship that is hard to find in this world.
Jesus said: My people, fighting and killing in wars can only bring death and destruction. This is the opposite that I desire of My people that should be praying for peace and harmony.
These soldiers praying on their knees know how awful war can be in losing loved ones. It is not a pleasant task to tell relatives that their son or daughter was killed in action. Continue to pray for peace in the world instead of fighting over land or material things.
Jesus said: My people, you know by your own experience how badly you suffer when you have a serious sickness or operation. When you have good health again, then you have a deeper appreciation of your gift of health.
If you did not suffer trials in this life, it would be harder to have a real appreciation for the joy that you will have in heaven for struggling through all of your temptations from the devil. Love Me in all that you do, and even thank Me for the trials that have led you to love Me even more.
Jesus said: My people, it is sad sometimes when poor people have to choose between staying warm or having enough food to survive. There are various means for heating your home, but they all require money or work to gather wood. It is the same effort either by donations or food stamps that may be required for some to have food.
Again I ask you for almsgiving to help the poor in providing food and a warm shelter. By helping others, your financial donations can be turned into heavenly treasure. Reach out to help your neighbor in deed and your prayers.

Jesus said: My people, this parable of the Prodigal Son is a beautiful portrayal of My deep love and mercy for every sinner. Even though you may have committed any grave sin, I wait patiently for you to come to Me for forgiveness. In addition to seeking My forgiveness, you should be ready to ask forgiveness from anyone that you may have wronged in any way.
Once you have made amends for your sins, then you will be prepared to bring your gift to Me at the altar at Mass. Also be willing to forgive others any injustice that was done to you just as the older son had to accept his father’s call for peace and forgiveness. See the great generosity of the father who forgave his son, and even held a celebration for his return.
Even so in heaven all the angels and saints rejoice in praising God for every sinner that comes to conversion and is healed in their soul. I not only cleanse the sins from your soul, but I also flood your soul with My abundant graces so you will be strengthened to resist any future temptations of the devil.
Even though I am patient and I wait for your free will decision to seek My forgiveness, I must warn you how important it is, especially in mortal sin, to come to have your sins forgiven in frequent Confession. In mortal sin your soul is spiritually dead, and even your guardian angel has difficulty helping you to avoid further sin. In this weakened state of mortal sin, you are much more vulnerable to future mortal sins.
vA pure confessed soul will be more protected from sin, which is why frequent Confession at least monthly is needed for your spiritual health. I love you so much and I desire all souls to come to heaven, but each soul needs to take a forward step so I can receive you as the father of the prodigal son.
Jesus said: My people, I have given you messages about places of My refuges, and one of those conditions would be that it would be a place where My Blessed Mother had given her apparitions, or messages to a chosen person. Two other conditions are that the land should be consecrated to Me by a priest and there would be a place of miraculous spring water that would be clear to drink.
The well on this land may have to be dug deeper in order to have a reservoir storage for any particles to settle. My Blessed Mother and I are truly blessing Linny’s mission on this land to carry out My Will to help the people during the coming tribulation.
She will be given personal instructions of what she is to do in preparation for these times. I am confirming your mission and you need to pray for continued discernment in this work. Thank you for saying yes to your mission.
Sunday, March 15, 2009
Jesus said: My people, I am love itself, and My Commandments are all about love of God and love of neighbor. Everyone of you are appointed to die and be judged one day. On that day you will be held accountable for all of your actions in this life. No one can come to heaven unless they come through Me.
Those, who enter heaven, must repent of their sins and accept Me as Master of their lives. If you follow My Commandments, then you must find time to worship Me on Sunday, and support My Church. Just as I threw the money changers out of the Temple, My love for My Church consumes Me.
You should reverence Sunday as holy and avoid any servile work on that day. It is unfortunate that man forces others to work on Sunday for your daily bread. You need to follow My Commandments and the laws of My Church as a direction for you in how to live a good Christian life. I came on to the earth to die for your sins, but also I came to fulfill the Law.
My love for all of you is unconditional and if you want to strive for perfection, your love for Me and your neighbor should also be unconditional. This is why I asked you not to discriminate in your love, and to love everyone, even your enemies, or those who persecute you. If you follow what I have given you, then your reward in heaven will be great.

Jesus said: My people, a prophet is not accepted in his native place. In Nazareth in several accounts of the Gospels I spoke of the little faith that My people had because they did not accept Me as the Son of God. Without faith I could not cure the sick there. I even read the Scriptures of Isaiah of how the Messiah would come and make the blind see, the cripple walk, and the lepers would be healed.
I told them that today in their hearing this Scripture was fulfilled. Since they thought that I was blaspheming, they cast Me out of Nazareth and they wanted to throw Me off of a cliff. Instead, I walked through them and they could not touch Me because it was not My time to die.
So, My people, even though I was born a God-man for your salvation, you must have faith that the Son of Man, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, has come to the earth to die for your sins. Believe that I am the Messiah, and believe in My healing power, and you will see miracles of healing, through My Name, both in physical and spiritual healings.
Remember many times when I healed people, I told them that their faith had saved them because they believed that I could heal them. Even the worst of sinners I can also heal and forgive, if they would only obey My laws, and believe that I could cleanse their sins.
These accounts of cleansing sins and cleansing leprosy are closely linked to the waters of Baptism which is how your original sin was cleansed. So continue in your faith that I can heal you of your sins in Confession, and by My grace I also can heal physical problems by My instruments in My Name.
Jesus said: My people, I want to thank you for giving praise and glory to Me in your singing and in your prayers. You are seeing the beginning of your end time trials with all of the sorrow of lost jobs and financial trials. You are also seeing a great battle of good and evil in a struggle for souls.
Call on My graces and blessings to help you endure these events and the coming tribulation. You know that once you see the Antichrist coming, you know that soon I will come in victory on the clouds.
At that time I will cast the demons and evil people into hell. I will then renew the earth and bring about My Era of Peace. Relish the glory of My love that will be poured out over all souls who believe in Me and I encourage the wayward souls to change their lives. Truly My love rains down on you as I will soon reign over all of the earth without any evil.
Tuesday, March 17, 2009: (St. Patrick’s day)
St. Patrick said: I am happy many years ago that you had an opportunity to come to Ireland and see the missionary land that I served. I just wanted to verify to you that when you did complain of your ill treatment here that I did have that angel of a woman help you in your directions. I wanted you to have a pleasant experience visiting the roots of your ancestors.
There are many who celebrate My feast day and they focus more on wearing green things and drinking in the pubs. But I want you to remember me most for promoting the belief in the Blessed Trinity of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. I gave the three leaf green shamrock to remember this teaching.
Many times in celebrating beautiful revelations from God, you were reciting the Glory be to God prayer.
So when you say this prayer, think of me and my shamrock teaching. I love God so very much and I was grateful that the Lord allowed me to be a missionary in bringing the faith to many people. In this world now, you need to spread the Word of God to all who will listen, for your time for evangelization is very short. Thank you again for praying to me as an intercessor for your prayers, and remember me every time you make the Sign of the Cross, or pray the Glory be to God prayer.
Jesus said: My people, the attack of the pandemic virus will come from the chemtrails when you do not expect it. This will be a contagious flu bug that will have a high death rate for those who contract this disease.
When you see a new strain of flu that is killing a lot of people, then you need to call on Me to have your guardian angels quickly lead you to the nearest refuge so you could look on the luminous cross or drink the spring water to heal those that are sick.
Use your masks to avoid spreading this flu, and build up your immune system by taking Hawthorn pills or drinking Hawthorn tea. The evil ones will protect themselves with a private vaccine that only they will have. The younger children will be protected from this deadly flu bug.
Wednesday, March 18, 2009: (St. Cyril of Jerusalem)
Jesus said: My people, I have been warning you for many years that a time of tribulation will come, even in America, when the one world people will persecute you. This will take the form of trying to make it mandatory for everyone to have a microchip placed in their body to control their mind as a robot against their free will.
The evil ones will come to your house to demand this chip in the body, and those, who refuse, will be taken to detention center death camps to be gassed and cremated. This vision of people being led up a ramp to be shackled in box cars is how they will collect the protesters for being killed. This is how many people will be martyred for their faith in defying to be chipped.
All of these martyrs will become instant saints in heaven and I will lessen their pain of death. The rest of My faithful will heed My warnings when it is time to go to My refuges for protection. When you see a world famine, a division in My Church, pandemic viruses, mandatory chips in the body, and martial law declared, this will be the time to call on Me to have your guardian angel lead you to the nearest refuge before the men in black come looking for you at your houses.
Once you leave your homes with your backpacks, you will be made invisible to your persecutors. I will provide for all of your needs at My refuges, but you are leaving to save your lives. Be grateful that I am watching out for your safety at all times.
Jesus said: My people, there are some people who are curious as to who holds America’s trillions of dollars of debt. Whenever your government needs money to finance its debts, it turns to the Treasury Department to auction and print Federal Notes to sell to the highest bidder with a promise from the taxpayer to repay the loan and the interest.
Buyers of these notes include private investors, individuals, pension and annuity funds, and foreign banks and countries. The curious part of the Federal Reserve is where does it get its trillions of dollars to purchase the notes and who keeps track of its balance sheet? It is this mysterious money that is driving your long term note rates lower and the price of the notes higher.
Your government has looked to the Federal Reserve to finance the new trillions of dollars needed to bail out your economy. There is a lurking chance that your government could very easily go bankrupt when the buyers of these notes stop buying or the interest payments are no longer affordable to the taxpayer.
This moment of bankruptcy is being postponed by the Federal Reserve’s buying of most of this debt. Once it is obvious that there is too much money printed and too many notes in circulation, the dollar will become so inflated that few will want to be invested in dollars.
Super inflation is another source of bankruptcy that could be precipitated from all of your spending on credit. Either way your country’s finances are headed for disaster with martial law and a North American Union ready to take over. Be prepared for this coming tribulation as you prepare to go to your refuges before the evil ones can capture you. Trust in My help and your angels for the protection that you will need.
Thursday, March 19, 2009: (St. Joseph’s Day)
Jesus said: My people, My foster father, St. Joseph, does not have any words recorded in the Gospels, but surely he had words of love for Me and My Blessed Mother every day that we were together. He was a loving and endearing father, and he provided for us while he was alive.
The vision of St. Joseph’s dream was a warning to him for the need to leave for Egypt because Herod was about to declare a decree that all the male children under two would be killed in and around Bethlehem. (Matt. 2:13-23)
This warning of an angel is how My faithful are also going to be alerted when it will be the time to go to My refuges before the evil ones will come searching for you in your homes. The angel led St. Joseph, My Blessed Mother, and Myself to a place to stay in Egypt for protection. Later, after Herod died, the angel again warned St. Joseph when it was safe to come back to Nazareth.
Your guardian angels will lead you with a sign, just like St. Joseph was led, so you will find the nearest refuge for your protection. Rejoice that your angels are always watching over you. Those, who do not heed this warning of going to My refuges, will risk the chance of being captured at your house and then martyred at the detention centers.
Prayer Group:
Josyp said: John, I am happy to have helped you with your book when I volunteered to paint pictures for your mission. Remember the cover of your book as a gift from me. I thank you for our friendship and all that you did to help me. I wish Carol well and all of your prayer group.
Thank you for your witness of My artwork that you displayed. Give a word of encouragement to Sam and my children and friends. I will be praying for all of you. If you would be so kind to bring some donations for the funeral to help my family, it would be helpful, understood?
Jesus said: My people, I am very grateful to Steve in the beautiful portrayal of St. Padre Pio and his woodcarving with painting. It is a great inspiration for all who see this carving. I love the picture from Mary depicting the crowning of thorns during this Lenten time.
Thank you for the suffering Crucifix that was placed on the altar and I thank you for displaying Josyp’s many pictures of Me, My Blessed Mother, the saints and the angels. The relics and the statues also accent My altar for a beautiful time of Adoration and prayer.
Jesus said: My people, today you are celebrating the feast day of St. Joseph, My foster father. This vision of where I was born in Bethlehem is a tribute to St. Joseph for bringing My Blessed Mother who was pregnant with Me to Bethlehem. My father had to suffer in not being able to find a better place than this cave of a barn for My birth. It was good that I was born of humble surroundings because I came to help the poor and poor sinners. Pray to St. Joseph to help you in providing for your living conditions.
Jesus said: My people, it is appropriate that you have the Easter Candle at your funerals because I am the Resurrection and the Life. You see this candle at your birth when you are baptized into the faith, and you see this candle at your death as you leave this life. It is very hard to suffer the loss of a loved one, especially for a spouse.
After a proper time of mourning, it is consoling to know that your loved one is in My hands. Those, who led good lives, may need some purification in purgatory, but they are promised one day to be with Me in heaven as one of My saints. All of you are struggling through this life to one day receive your crown of sainthood.
Jesus said: My people, you are seeing mountains of debt accumulating from this attempt by your government to salvage the bad loans that are loading down the taxpayer with years to pay off such a debt. This debt is mortgaging the futures of all of your taxpayers. It could almost be considered a stealing from the future earnings of your children and grandchildren. The truthfulness of all of this spending is that there is not enough money to bail out all of these bad loans. The result of this financial disaster will be lost freedoms and lost control of your government. Pray for My protection at your refuges.
Jesus said: My people, you are about half way through your Lenten devotions. I just want to remind you of your intended readings, prayers, and fasting that you promised at the beginning of Lent. Take an inventory of what you are doing now to see if you are keeping faithful to what you intended.
If you have fallen lax in any of your devotions, now would be a good time to redirect your efforts toward fulfilling what you wanted to accomplish this Lent. You are doing some extra penances for love of Me so you can improve your spiritual life. Keep up your good work and ask Me to strengthen you in your weak moments.
Jesus said: My people, I am happy that you were all thankful to be in attendance at last week’s healing service. It is always beautiful to give witness to prayerful healings of both body and soul. I know there are many believers in My healing powers. Your belief in Me has healed some of your members, and they should be overjoyed to give witness to their healing. Give praise and glory to Me for all healings that were accomplished through My instruments.
Friday, March 20, 2009
Jesus said: My people, today’s Gospel focuses on the Greatest of My Commandments which is to love God with all of your mind, your heart, and with all of your strength, and your neighbor as yourself.
This love is the basis of all of My teachings, and if man carried this out every day, there would be harmony and peace without any wars. Unfortunately, man is loving Me less and I am becoming less a part of your life. As you worship money and fame more than Me, your money and your freedoms will be falling away as a punishment for violating this love of Mine.
As you grow colder in your hearts with less love for Me, you can understand this vision that the elevator grows colder as it descends. You are dependent on Me, and when you depend more on yourselves, your world falls apart. Only by hard times and disasters will you be brought back on your knees to see your need to love Me and depend on Me by worshiping Me only, instead of your money.
Jesus said: My people, your economy is having a financial disaster, but your standard of living requires cheap gasoline to survive. You saw what happened when your gasoline prices went to $4/gallon. The mobility of your goods and services is crucial and it relies on cheap fuels. Your energy policies still are not reducing the need for buying a lot of foreign oil.
This vision of your oil production and refining of gasoline is very vulnerable to having enough supply, and it is vulnerable to terrorism. Until America expands its alternative energy sources, your economy is still weak to support any expanded energy needs for future growth.
All of your economic problems are being worsened by government control which is very inefficient and prone to corruption and interest group control. The one world people have created your financial problem, but their solution is global government which will be the vehicle used by the Antichrist.
Your time is short before this planned solution will become a reality. Be prepared in your souls spiritually, and have your things ready to leave for your refuges.
Saturday, March 21, 2009
Jesus said: My people, I am showing you this broken piece of glass to indicate an act in reality that had consequences. Sometimes you may accidentally cause a window to break in your car or in your home. You have to admit that it was your fault, but still you need to replace the glass to keep the cold from coming in. In a different spiritual way you sometimes break one of My Commandments in your sins. You know that you are a sinner and when you do sin, you need to be able to admit your fault, and be sorry that you offended Me in your sin.
Once you have sinned, you need to make reparation for your sin by confessing it in Confession to a priest and seek My forgiveness. Willingly carry out your penance and go beyond this to make amends for your sin in prayer and good works. Do not make judgments on other souls who may be doing more serious sins than yours.
Keep humble in My eyes and you will be exalted later at your judgment. Help your brothers or sisters to lead good lives, but do not nag them or condemn them. This is true for your children, your relatives, and others.
Jesus said: My people, I have given you several visions of the demise of your country. This van again represents the fall of America with the disastrous end very certain. The death culture people are closing their vise on your freedoms and your money. Because of the evil ways of abortion, euthanasia, and wars, you are seeing destructive natural disasters.
The one world people’s planned economic crisis and constant wars are about to destroy your economy and your military. The deficit spending and control of your minds by microchips in the body are the means for your takeover.
They will shut off your electricity and make your money worthless so they can control each of you like a robot. Refuse any chips in the body and be prepared to hide in your refuges for protection when martial law is about to be declared. It is not a matter if America will be taken over, but when you will be taken over. Trust in My help and protection to endure this coming tribulation.
Sunday, March 22, 2009: (Laetare, rejoice Sunday)
Jesus said: My people, the readings today touch many important parts of your faith and the coming events for your country. In the Gospel it touches on the vision when Moses lifted up the bronze serpent to heal those who were bitten by the seraph serpents. The people complained of just having the manna without any meat.
The seraph serpents were sent as a punishment for their grumbling. In this figure as with the night of delivery, the people ate unleavened bread in Egypt and manna in the desert. This is a prefigurement of the Holy Bread of Holy Communion in My Real Presence.
Also the lifting up of the bronze serpent is parallel to My being lifted up on the cross when I died for all of mankind. There is also a parallel in the future when My faithful will look upon My luminous cross over the refuges, and you will be healed of all of your health problems. This is Rejoice Sunday in Lent and you can be happy to celebrate My victory over sin and death that you will soon celebrate on Easter Sunday. In the first reading there is the account of how the Israelites were conquered and exiled to Babylon because of their many iniquities and their idol worship.
Later, the Persians freed the Israelites as part of God’s plan to restore the Temple. Again there is a parallel to the coming defeat and takeover of America because of your sins of abortion, adoption of a death culture, and your worship of money and materialism instead of worshiping Me.
Be prepared for the demise of your country as carried out by your enemies in the one world people. Be patient, My people, for soon I will come to defeat the Antichrist and restore My Kingdom on earth with My Era of Peace.
Monday, March 23, 2009
Jesus said: My people, you see people dying every day, but you do not expect younger people to be killed. In other words you may be living today, but you cannot promise yourself that you will be alive tomorrow.
This is why I keep telling you to live for this moment, and not in the future or in the past. In the recent plane crashes, you can see why you need to be spiritually ready to die every day. I could call you home any day in an accident. You do not have to be old to die. In order to be spiritually ready, use this Lent to repent of your sins in Confession at least monthly, have a good prayer life, and do not keep grudges or any feelings of not being able to forgive someone in your heart.
Clear your mind, heart, and soul of any sin or feeling that could hold you back from going to heaven. In this way you will always have a clean, pure soul for the day that you will die, which you do not know. This freedom of any worry about dying will allow you to fulfill your mission more easily by trusting in Me for everything.
Jesus said: My people, many of your Wall Street people were happy to hear that your government was willing to help remove the toxic assets, that were not performing, off the books of the banks. The banks have taken some write downs on these loans, but what percentage was this of their original value? The original loans were leveraged at about $10 to $1 of capital, but the Wall Street derivatives of collateralized loans were leveraged from $40 to $1 of capital.
The trillions of dollars needed to unwind these debt instruments may be too much for even the Federal Reserve to finance. This is why the banks were reluctant to take any more losses to take these assets off of their books. If they did so, these obligations would make these large banks bankrupt.
This is also why it is hard to know who owns the individual loans to start with. All of this information is being hidden from the people because your money is about to become worthless when the Federal Reserve produces trillions of dollars out of thin air to back your deficits.
This monetized debt will increase the physical money supply in your printing presses to dilute your money to a fraction of its original worth. Once this becomes a public reality, your financial system will collapse, and create the opportunity for a takeover by the one world people in a martial law declaration. Prepare to go to your refuges as your economy is about to fail. Trust in Me to protect you from these evil ones.
Tuesday, March 24, 2009
Jesus said: My people, this vision of helping family members and neighbors is an example all of you should be following out of love for everyone. Instead of refusing to help someone because it may be inconvenient for you, think more to take advantage of every opportunity to help those in your life.
At times you tend to be selfish with your time instead of being more generous in sharing it with others. Your first obligation should be to do whatever your own family members need.
Then you can look beyond to help neighbors that may be in need. You may even be called to be generous with your money in donations or your time to assist in community work. All of your good works will store up treasure in heaven, and your time will be well spent without being so self-centered and selfish with your time. By doing everything for love of Me and your neighbor, you will also be giving good example to others.
Jesus said: My people, I have told you many times in messages of the coming earthquakes in California. This will not just be one earthquake, but a series of them that will start low and continue into larger earthquakes. There have been many earthquakes in California for a long time, but once they start getting larger, people are going to take notice.
This progression will be an advance notice to get out of harm’s way before serious disasters could cause the loss of many lives. Seeing the vision of swaying and falling buildings will be very serious in the large cities. This is why the people in California need an escape plan when earthquake disasters will escalate. Pray for these peoples souls because there is much sin in this state.
Wednesday, March 25, 2009: (Annunciation)
Jesus said: My people, there were two Annunciations performed by the angel Gabriel. One was to announce to Zachary the coming birth of St. John the Baptist, and the other was the Annunciation of My birth to My Blessed Mother.
The reactions were quite different to each of those who heard Gabriel’s message. Zachary and his wife were beyond child bearing years, so he doubted the angel’s message and he was silenced until St. John’s birth. My Blessed Mother always followed the Will of God, and she wanted to know the way she could conceive, and did not doubt that it could be done.
On hearing that the Holy Spirit would come upon her, she willingly of her own free will gave her fiat of acceptance of God’s Will. Mary was prepared by God from all time to be the chosen woman to bear Me into the world.
This is why she was conceived without original sin and why she had no sin in her life so that this Covenant vessel would be pure and sinless to receive God for the salvation of all of mankind. For this honor she is called Blessed among all women. Rejoice in My Blessed Mother ‘s acceptance of bringing Me into your world that needed My Redemption.

Mark..Khemetian, born in Africa. Tradition holds that originally, Peter and Mark set out on evangelization mission. But one night, Peter dreamed he had go with Mark, to Rome and then to Alexandria, Kemet. Mark preached in Rome, and then returned to Kemet. His efforts drew many to Christ. He finally landed in Alexandria.
Another tradition by Eusebius, accords Mark the first bishop of Alexandria. As he entered the city gates, a sandal rap broke. A shoemaker was chosen to fix the leather—Anianus. He became Mark’s first disciple and convert to Yeshua, Jesus the Christ in Alexandria.
Enemies, however, sought out Mark. The writer of the Gospel of Mark after sufficient teaching, appointed Anianus bishop, and ordained three priests and seven deacons. Leaving the city, he told them to "serve and comfort the faithful brethren.”
After some years, Mark returned. The Christian community had grown considerably. But his enemies had not forgotten him. They jailed him.
On the following morning, Mark’s neck was tied with a rope. The malefactors dragged him by the neck from Alexandria up to the little port of Bucoles until he died.
They attempted to burn the body. The flames would not touch it. Christians in the community claimed the remains, burying it in a Church Mark had founded. It is said he is the first Christian martyr of the Church in Kemet.
He is credited with writing one of the four Christian canonical gospels, or at least his name and influence is attached to it. Severus, Bishop of Al-Ushmunain, in late tenth century in his Life of Apostle and Evangelist Mark, said Mark was one of the wine pouring servants that Jesus turned from water at marriage feast of Cana. Severus goes on to say that, Mark’s house was where Jesus appeared to disciples who were hiding after His resurrection dead.
Anianus, the shoemaker of the sandal of Mark, became a saint, whose memorial is celebrated under Anianus.

MARY of Egypt , as Maria Aegyptica . The sunrise of my life came in 344 A.D. I left home at 12 spending 17 years of my youth entertaining, whether it was by music, dancing, or in prostitution. My family was wealthy. But wanting to be on my own, I left it for Alexandria, Kemet. But through the grace of God, I was called to Christianity, after visiting Jerusalem, the places where Yeshua Maryam, and the apostles walked and talked, the Palestine Holy Land
At a memorial service there, called the Exaltation of the Cross, I pressed through the crowds to get a good place in the Church. But a mysterious force did not allow me to enter it. I could not pass the doorway.
I became overwhelmed with grief for my life’s activities up to then. I spiritually asked Maryam for her blessing,help and remedy. An interior locution (voice) told me to go beyond the Jordan River. That a voice told me go to the desert, which I did immediately. I became a hermitess, and for 50 years practiced that in repentence, living on herbs and berries. Now one day a holy man, Zosimus from Palestine, and a friend of God came to visit. He informed me he would return in a year. When he returned, I had died, in 421 A.D. A lion with its paws, helped him dig my grave. Zosimus wrote of me.
My day of memorial ,3, April. If the Greek Rite, it is 1 April.

Dear Friends,
THE DEATH OF JOHN THE BAPTIST
Herod had arrested John, bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, the wife of his brother, Philip, for John had said to him, It is not lawful for you to have her. Although he wanted to kill him, he feared the people, for they regarded him as a prophet. But at a birthday celebration for Herod, the daughter of Herodias performed a dance before the guests and delighted Herod so much that he swore to give her whatever she might ask for. Prompted by her mother, she said, Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.
The king was distressed, but because of his oaths and the guests who were present, he ordered that it be given, and he had John beheaded in the prison. He head was brought in on a platter and given ... to the girl, who took it to her mother. His disciples came and took away the corpse and buried him; and they went and told Jesus. Matthew 14:3 12
I present you now with the message of Our Lord and Savior addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, One of the greatest prophets that ever lived is John the Baptist, who was conceived by a miracle as his mother was past child bearing.
As a young man he lived in the desert where the Father was preparing him for his important work. He is the one who came before Me baptizing in the Jordan River as a sign of repentance. Many people came to him and he instructed them to prepare the way for My coming.
I was baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan and he saw the Holy Spirit come upon Me and he heard the Father speaking about Me. He is the one who pointed Me out to the people saying Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world. Later John was arrested and thrown into prison and at the end he was beheaded. He is My witness and a great saint in heaven.
I call you all to live in holiness as John did. Do not be preoccupied with the things of this world but place your heart in Me. I alone can fill you completely. I bless you all.

OUR LADY TEACHES ABOUT PRAYER AT MEDJUGORJE
I have here a excerpt from OUR LADY TEACHES ABOUT PRAYER AT MEDJUGORJE... This is lovely to share:
"Dear Children (from 1987) ask God for those graces which He confers on you through me. I am prepared to intercede with him for everything you seek, so that your sanctification may become complete.
Without fail then ask - seeing that God has made it possible for me to obtain graces for you. "Thank you for yoru response to my call. (and in 9-87 she says) Dear children, it is my wish again today, to invist all of you to pray. Let prayer become your life. Dear children, consecrate time to Jesus Himself, and He will give you everything you ask. He will reveal Himself to you fully. Satan is strong,.
He lies in wait to tempt every one of you. Pray - and in this way he will become powerless to hurt you or block your way on the road to holiness. Dear children, make progress from day to day toward God through prayer. Thanks you for your response to my call."

Jesus Reminds Us Where To Lay Our Burdens
Although I am no longer a scheduled adorer in my parish, through opportunity of time and an inner urging, I have returned to adoration without being scheduled to be there.
Today I prayed and reflected upon the Stations of The Cross. I prayed for all with special needs and intentions, including a couple of my own. After making humble offerings to Jesus and Mary, I prayed that Jesus speak to my heart, if it be His will.
Again Jesus blesses us with His word saying, My child Eileen, come to Me as you often do. Feel My hand upon your shoulder, know that I AM with you.
Lay your burdens down at the foot of the altar for there is nothing you cannot ask of the Father. This is so because you have loved and been faithful to Me.
Children are always welcome to bring their burdens to the house of their parents.
I love you as I love all My children. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.?

Look again to the Truth, My children, and see the path that I take you upon, it is the path of self dying. Unless that you die to yourself you will never truly be able to do My Work for the things of this world that self desires will get in the way of My Truth and so My Work will fail within you.
Prayer and fasting will help on this journey, it will allow you to see what you must remove from your lives in order to proceed. Sin blocks My Light and this is what you must remove. In order to remove sin, you must admit your sin to yourself and then you will be able to move on for many times sin is justified within all your lives.
I Love you, children, and I need you to be able to withstand all that lucifer will throw against you on this journey. Read My Words and begin to believe that I am calling you into this Army of Mine. I Love you, My little children, and await your answer by the way you live your lives. I Love you.
Patrick:
Thank You, Jesus, I love You.
Thursday 5 March 2009
Look to the Truth, My children, and see Me in your lives. Am I there? Look in truth. Going to Mass on Sunday and forgetting about Me until next Sunday is not following Me. You are only deceiving yourselves. Following Me is every second, of every day so that I may Teach you in the True Ways of your God.
Sin is the biggest block between Us: remove sin from your lives and you will begin to see Me in truth as the scales begin to fall from your eyes. I Love you, My children, and I am with you. You must begin to trust in Me and believe that I am your God. I will not desert you even though you turn your backs on Me, I will await your return. Trust in Me, your God. I Love you, My children, I Love you.
Patrick:
Thank You, Jesus, I love You.
Friday 6 March 2009
See the Words that I speak, children, are Truth and are given to you to help you live your lives for Me. Do not ignore them for they are your lifeline to Me in this world of darkness. I have given you many Words in order for you to see the Truth of the times that you now live in.
I say again, do not ignore them for they are precious Gifts given by Me to you. I am calling you, My children, to wake up and see the Truth of what I say. Unless you see the Truth you shall be caught up in the wave of sin that sweeps this earth and threatens to engulf all Truth.
I am Coming, children, to cleanse all mankind of the unlove that threatens his very existence. Can you not see that your lives are so short? Look at those who have went before you and see that your time will also come to leave this earth and you must ask yourself the question: am I ready?
All that it is important to you now will pass away for your life only truly begins in death. This Earth is only a place of preparation where you must decide in your free will where you wish to spend eternity. If you wish to spend eternity with Me in My Father's Kingdom then you must give your ‘yes’ by the way you live your life. Eternity begins when you die and New Life will be given in abundance but it is up to you to choose where this life will be lived, in Heaven or in hell; the choice is yours.
hell is a place, My children, where those who do not wish to be with Me will spend eternity in terminal anger and fury, blaspheming their God for in their pride they will not admit their wrongdoing and so blame Me for their downfall.
You must ask yourself the question, do you want to be one of these souls lost to Me forever? The choice is yours, children. I cannot influence you, I can only simply tell you the Truth for My Gift to you is free will and you must be prepared to fight for your place in My Father's Kingdom. I Love you.
Patrick:
Thank You, Jesus, I love You.
Saturday 7 March 2009
Look only to Me in these times of darkness and see My Ways that I am trying to guide you in. I Love you, My children, and I am trying to help you see the truth of this world that you live in. It is only a place of preparation, a place where you may show your love for Me. Turn away from its lies, its glitter for it cannot bring you happiness. Happiness cannot be found in this life, only in the next. Trust in Me, children, trust the Words that I give you for they will bring you to Me and the Truth that is within My Remnant Church.
Soon I will Come and I shall remove the deceivers and Peace shall reign once again but, until this time comes, follow closely to My Words. I say, love all that you meet, including your enemies, for only love can survive the darkness of this earth. I Love you.
Patrick:
Thank You, Jesus, I love You.
Tuesday 17 March 2009
My children, come listen to My Voice as I call out to you. I am calling you in these days of darkness to see My Truth and be obedient to My Voice for you are in much danger. I Love you and I ask you to follow in My Truth so that you will be able to see the dangers that lucifer places before you.
Come, My beloved children, and acknowledge My Voice and take up your cross every day and follow Me for I am Meek and Humble of Heart and My Way is Truth. I Love you.
Patrick:
Thank You, Jesus, I love You.
Tuesday 24 March 2009
Look at the Truth, My children, and see how you are deceived by this world. You accept many things that are not of Me; you accept sin as an everyday part of your lives and ignore the fact that it takes you ever further away from Me.
Stop, My children, and look and remove all sin from your lives for you are living in the darkest times ever experienced by this earth. Soon I will Come and soon all will be brought to an end and My Love shall reign once again. But, until this time comes, you must fight hard against the darkness and lies of this earth.
My little ones, I am calling out to you in these Words to overcome the darkness and begin to walk in the Light of My Truth. Do not allow yourselves to be blinded any longer but come, walk with Me for We have much work to do. Trust in Me. I Love you.
Patrick:
Thank You, Jesus, I love You.

DEAR CHILDREN, LENT IS ALWAYS DIFFICULT, YET YOU PERSEVERE. BE OPEN TO THE LOVE AND MERCY JESUS DESIRES FOR YOU AND CONTINUE TO PRAISE AND EXALT HIM. YOUR HEARTS ARE HIS AND HE KNOWS ALL YOU CARRY THERE. BE GRATEFUL THAT JESUS WATCHES YOU, THUS YOU ARE SPECIAL TO HIM. GIVE YOURSELVES OVER TO HIS COMPLETE AND DEVOURING LOVE.
I WILL HELP YOU ON THESE LAST DAYS OF LENT. YOU WILL SHARE WITH JESUS, HIS PASSION AND YOU WILL SHARE HIS RESURRECTION.

BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE
THE ATTACKS FROM MY ADVERSARY EACH DAY WILL INCREASE CREATING CONFUSION AND DISRUPTING YOUR PEACE. HE WILL USE EVERY MEANS GOD'S FLOCK TO DIVIDE BY TRYING TO CONVINCE YOU THAT IT'S ALL JUSTIFIED.
MANY A PRAYER GROUP FOR THESE TIMES I HAVE GATHERED; NOW SATAN AWAITS TO CLAIM THOSE HE HAS SCATTERED. IF SATAN SUCCEEDS IN DIVIDING THE REST, WHO WILL WALK THRU THE RAINBOW TO BE THERE AS GOD'S GUEST?
WHEN SATAN WITH GOD'S PLAN STARTS TO INTERFERE, START PRAYING THE ROSARY FOR THIS WEAPON HE DOES FEAR. AS THE BATTLE CONTINUES TO ESCALATE, PLACE YOURSELVES IN GOD'S HANDS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.

Vision to littlest of servants April 1, 2009
While in Church this morning before Mass while praying before the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following vision.
I saw the CRUCIFIX in the sky and I then saw the earth.
I could see many, many which looked like millions of people looking up to sky at the CRUCIFIX. JESUS then spoke and told me that the earth will not know TRUE PEACE until MANKIND accepts the CRUCIFIX, which is their SALVATION.

"Do not be afraid"
Tuesday, March 31, 2009
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
Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, “I was often rejected in My homeland and especially in Nazareth where I was born. As they knew Me and My family, they could not believe that I could speak as I did and that I had such mighty powers to heal and to bring back the dead to life.
The people looked at Me as just another man. They could not see that I was the Son of God and the Messiah sent by My Father to bring salvation to all the people of the world. Because of their lack of faith, I could not perform many mighty deeds there.
Am I better accepted today than when I lived in Israel? Am I still rejected by the people? I know that there are many people who have accepted Me and they live with great faith and they are My followers. They go to church and they pray every day. They follow the commandments of God and they are always ready to help the poor. These are My beloved disciples whom I bless every day and they live in close union with Me. However, there are many today who have rejected Me.
They fight against Me and My followers. They make fun of Me and the successor of St. Peter. Others are trying to destroy the Church I founded and spread all kinds of lies against Me and My Church. These are even worst than those who opposed Me during My public life.
They follow Satan and his evil ways. Do not be afraid of them because they will not last. I am now making all things new. Believe in Me, your Savior and your Friend. I will never abandon you. I live in you and I will give you the graces you need to stand up for Me. I love you all.”
Father Melvin

Monthly message as given to Anne, a lay apostle.
On the first of every month, Our Lord gives Anne a new message about His call to service.
April 1, 2009
Jesus
My beloved apostles, please know that you obtain a constant stream of grace for the world. You do this by serving so generously. Your generosity obtains for others sublime graces of calm and peace, sublime graces of charity and truth, and sublime graces of conversion and perseverance.
When you see how heaven has used your service, you will rejoice that you gave so willingly and consistently. My friends, you should not be distracted by your feelings. Your feelings are like the smallest stems of grass blowing in the wind, so quickly do they pass. Do not be tormented.
Simply allow feelings of temptation to move along and concentrate on the truth which is that you have remained in My holy company. If you do this you will be less distracted. You will be able to say, Today I am sad, tomorrow I may be happy, the next day I may feel fear and afterwards rejoicing.
What difference does it make as long as I am united to My Jesus and serving His kingdom.Yes, many in this time find that they are so distracted by their feelings that they question their decision to serve at all. This is the ultimate degree of temptation. If I did not wish you to serve, I would not have called you into service. I need My chosen ones to remain closely tied to their decision to bring My light to others.
Only in this way will the renewal push further into the world. Submit your feelings to me. When your feelings make you doubtful, sit with Me and together we will examine them, one by one. If examined in My company, you will see that your feelings in no way change My truth which is that you have been formed to serve Me and truly, I need your service.
Please be loyal to your decision for heavenly service as you live your time on earth. If you remain faithful, I can do many things. I am with you. I am directing all that occurs in your life. We walk together and together we will triumph over all temptations.

My child, I am Jesus and I ask My children who is your Master who is your Messiah. Choose your heavenly Father for it is then that you choose light, truth and eternal life in Me.
My child let the world know that I desire for My faithful to amplify their voices to speak the truth and to make My mercy known while there is still time. Amplify your voices to overcome the darkness that is multiplying around you. Call upon heavens intercession for it is the evil one who desires you to give up in the midst of great difficulty.
You are soldiers who have been prepared for battle. Now is the time to use your armor wisely. I do not speak of the armor of the sword. I speak of the armor of prayer, fasting, and most of all the Eucharist. Come to realize that the obstacles you face will come to pass, yet eternity does not.
Offer each suffering to Me for the more you are tried and tested the greater your victory. Do not lose hope when you fall rather trust in My mercy and love. Meditate on the stages of My passion for I suffered for all your weaknesses. You suffer now the stages of My passion when you witness the rejection of My words, My Commandments, My love.
When you witness division of the truth in My church and amongst My chosen sons. When you see those who speak in My name and then justify their actions of darkness as coming from Me.
I am Jesus, I am the Way , the Truth and the Life. The first, the last, the beginning and the end. I desire you My children to turn away from sin and to come into the light of My mercy for all will be done according to My will.

Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 03 - Abandon yourselves to me
"With ever-living ardor, contemplate Christ in the mystery of the Eucharist. Following His example, be ready in all circumstances to make yourselves instruments of mercy and communion. The secret of pastoral success is the crucified and risen Lord, Whom we adore in the Sacrament of the Eucharist.
As you well know, in order to be eloquent signs of His love and instigators of His peace in all environments, everyone is first of all asked to cultivate an intimate and constant familiarity with Him. From intense participation in the Eucharist springs the spiritual energy needed to bring all projects of goodness to fruition." (Pope John Paul II, February 19, 2005)
"Who does not see that the hidden life of Nazareth is continued in the divine Host of the tabernacle, and that the Passion of the Man-God on Calvary is renewed in the Holy Sacrifice at every moment of the day and night and all over the world? Is not our Lord as meek and humble in His Sacrament as during His mortal life? Is He not always the Good Shepherd, the divine Consoler, our bosom Friend?" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 3 Woe to those who are dishonest! Not only do they loose all human respect, but they cannot take up any public office either. So let us be honest always, casting all bad thoughts from our minds, and keeping our hearts always turned to God, who created us and placed us on earth in order to know, love and serve Him in this life, and then enjoy Him eternally in the next (CS, no. 15, pp74f.).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen 03-What has happened to absolutes? "Nothing has so much killed enthusiasm as the pragmatic notion that there is nothing that is absolutely true, right, and good for which one ought to consecrate his life; and there is nothing so evil that one ought to die rather than surrender to it. Indifference kills passions; while skepticism deadens them."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
When I look into the future, I am frightened, But why plunge into the future? Only the present moment is precious to me, As the future may never enter my soul at all. It is no longer in my power, To change, correct or add to the past; For neither sages nor prophets could do that. And so, what the past has embraced I must entrust to God.
O present moment, you belong to me, whole and entire. I desire to use you as best I can. And although I am weak and small, You grant me the grace of your omnipotence.
And so, trusting in Your mercy, I walk through life like a little child, Offering You each day this heart Burning with love for Your greater glory.
O Jesus, eternal Truth, strengthen my feeble forces; You can do all things, Lord. I know that without You all my efforts are in vain. O Jesus, do not hide from me, for I cannot live without You. Listen to the cry of my soul. Your mercy has not been exhausted, Lord, so have pity on my misery. Your mercy surpasses the understanding of all Angels and people put together; and so, although it seems to me that You do not hear me, I put my trust in the ocean of Your mercy, and I know that my hope will not be deceived. (69)
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.
APRIL 3 - ABANDON YOURSELVES TO ME
Our Lady speaks of the fruits of abandonment today:
"If you would abandon yourselves to me, you would not even feel the passage from this life to the next. You would begin to live the life of heaven on earth." (Locution Jelena & Mirijana 1986).
From the cross when Jesus entrusted his Mother to his apostle John, she was given to all of us as well:
When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, "Woman, here is your son." Then he said to the disciple, "Here is your mother." And from that hour the disciple took her into his own home (Jn 19:26-27).
Reflection:
Just as Mary was given to us by Jesus, so we in turn are called to give ourselves to the Blessed Mother.
Let us do just that, using the "Prayer to Give
Oneself to Mary, Mother of Goodness, Love, and Mercy," dictated to Jelena in 1984:
O my Mother, Mother of goodness, love, and mercy, I love you so much, and I now offer myself to you. Save me through your goodness, Your love, and your mercy. I wish to be yours. Deep is my love for you, And I place myself under your protection. Grant to my heart, Mother Mary, A share of your own goodness, That I may someday join you in heaven. In your great love, grant That I may have the grace to love all people As you loved your Son, Jesus Christ.
Grant me the grace to be so merciful That it may touch your own heart. I now offer myself completely to you And ask you to accompany me at each step, For you are full of grace. May I never forget your love and grace; But should I ever lose sight of it, I shall call upon you And you will help me find it again. Amen.
Application:
Since the church has reserved Saturday as Our Lady's special day of the week, you may wish to offer her this prayer of dedication on that day.
Vision to littlest of servants March 31, 2009
While in Church this morning before Mass while praying in front of the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following vision.
I saw JESUS standing outside my pew as JESUS OF DIVINE MERCY.
HE then spoke and said, "FORTUNATE IS THE PERSON WHO IS BATHE IN THIS LIGHT THE JUSTICE OF MY FATHER WILL NOT REACH THAT SOUL".
JESUS then said, "I AM JESUS WHO IS MERCY. COME TO ME YOU WHO WEARY I WILL LIGHTEN YOUR LOAD.
I AM JESUS WHO IS MERCY. COME TO ME YOU WHO ARE SINNERS I WILL WASH AWAY THE FILTH.
I AM JESUS WHO IS MERCY. COME TO ME YOU WHO ARE POOR I WILL GIVE YOU THE RICHES OF MY KINGDOM.
I AM JESUS WHO IS MERCY. COME TO ME ALL WHO WORRY AND ARE AFRAID I WILL GIVE A COMFORT THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN THIS WORLD.
I AM JESUS WHO IS MERCY. COME TO ME YOU WHO FEEL UNWANTED AND UNLOVED I WILL GIVE MY LOVE AND WILL IMMERSE YOU IN MY HEART.
I AM JESUS WHO IS MERCY". "I AM JESUS WHO IS YOUR GOD WHO IS FULL OF LOVE AND TENDERNESS FOR YOU AND WHO LOVES YOU TO DEATH ON THE CROSS.
COME TO ME I AM MERCY. COME TO ME I WILL NOT HARM YOU BUT WILL GIVE YOU LIFE ETERNAL.
COME TO ME I AM JESUS AND I LOVE YOU.
COME TO ME I AM YOUR SAVIOR AND I EAGERLY AWAIT YOU.
COME TO ME NOW. DO NOT DELAY. FALL INTO MY ARMS.
ALLOW YOUR JESUS TO LOVE YOU. MY HEART AWAITS YOU. MY LOVE AWAITS YOU.YOUR GOD AWAITS YOU"!!!
Message to Carol Ameche March 29,2009
External locution through Carol at Ameche Prayer Group, March 29, 2009
"My dearest children, I am your Mother, Mary, the Immaculate One. I come to remind you again, My children, that I am with you. You never have to suffer alone, My dear ones, for always, always I am weeping, I am in pain, I am in great sorrow, I am in great remorse, I am in great disappointment. Whatever it is you suffer, I suffer that same feeling. That same event in your life, I am living with you.
My children be aware of Me walking next to you. Be aware of My Son walking next to you, hearing your every word, feeling your every response to what you hear or see; offering yourself as you do to the Father in Consecration, in the joy of service, in the eagerness to please, in the struggle to please, in the struggle to remain fixed in the Father's Will.
In the times when you are less than you are called to be, we feel those too, My children, as a kind of blow. There is never a disappointment in you. There is never a lessening of Our love for you. There is never a lessening of joy for you. There is never a time when we do not offer you to the Father. There is never a time when we are not filled with gratitude for you.
O My children, think of the unity this describes. Walk in union with those Who walk in union with you, My children; and that includes the entire world who prays for you as you are praying for them. My children, I speak to your minds and will that you might choose to do this in a better way, a more alert and open and grateful way. Be aware, My children, of Our company, Our presence.
It is an enormous gift you receive from the Father, even to be reminded of these gifts. O My children, be open, be open to the gift of the Holy Spirit of God, My beloved Spouse. Do not think of these as old words or no words or nothing is new. As are the words of Scripture, the words now from Heaven are new, always new, in that they are always creating you, making of you a new creation to serve.
My children, it will not be long before you see horrific events. Trust these words. Allow them to move you to be more open to Our Presence and the help We can be in your own preparation for the times, the difficult times, ahead of you. Offer the times that occur in your future, now, in union with the suffering of My Son.
Offer all of the people in the world, now, as they will suffer then in the near future in union with My Son. You can do these things. Be aware, My children. Live in Our presence more.
Reap the rewards, the gifts, the blessings, the graces that come with living in this way. O My dear ones, believe My words. My children, we are one. We are so united. We praise and thank the Father, together, for Jesus through the Holy Spirit. All these things, My children, together, always together.
Come walk with Me, My children. Come pray with Me. Come breathe with Me as I breathe each breath, and say each word, and take each step at your side . It is real, My little ones. My love is real. Thank you, thank you for your fidelity and the tremendous waiting that you offer to the Father's Will. I love you. I love you. We go into serious days of contemplation. We do it together, My dear ones." Amen.

My child, it is an important time to take heed to all that I tell you. Know that the time in which you are in is quickly passing. It is a time that mankind should have heeded to the warning of My Mother yet so many still turn away. Many have become lukewarm and have distanced themselves so far from Me that the light of truth would bring them into their judgment.
My child I am showing you these two countries that will join together to control a great number, they are Russia and China. Your country My child is in danger of falling into the hands of these two countries. Many are friends with them and many are enemies with your nation of freedom.
My child your country will be inundated with great suffering, disease, storms and a financial collapse of historic proportions. I have told you to place things in which I desire of you away for I will multiply all so that you have a table of plenty
This is a nation that has so greatly offended Me for being the leader of killing My little ones, yet mankind believes there is no repercussions for so willingly turning away for its Creator for I am Jesus.
My child pray, pray at this time and do novenas and fasting. Offer your daily sufferings to Me for if you only knew the full depth of My love for I am Jesus and My mercy and justice will prevail.
4/18/08 10:45 AM
My child, My peace be with you. Never pray for one to receive justice, always pray for that soul to seek mercy. I tell you this because you would not want anyone whom you have hurt to ask for justice for you. Find peace in all your writings for it is a mission to save souls and to do the will of your Heavenly Father.
It is time to truly gather and truly pray for there is a greater turbulence that is about to come forth. Make sure that you have all the preparations in your home for I say these changes will come forth at an hour that will catch many off guard.
As you begin to see changes in your currency, you will find greater wars rise within areas around you. Neighbor will be against neighbor and plagues will come forth. Again I say to you, it is a time of purification. I allow this purification out of great love for My people. So few know of Me, and those who do have become lukewarm to the truth. Does a father not love his son if he disciplines him for disobedience? For it is his desire to show him in discipline love and guidance and many of My children are being disobedient.
The morals of mankind no longer exist. Woe to the man that seeks to be his own god. It is time for purification. My child, be at peace for I am pleased you have responded to My voice in obedience to the will of your Heavenly Father. Now go forth for I am Jesus and My mercy and justice will prevail.
4/28/08 12:00 PM
My child, I warn you that greater turbulence is about to fall upon your country. For in the Middle East a great darkness lingers and it is a darkness joined by Russia and China, for you do not see what is going on behind closed doors.
You must be more guarded with your family, for too much can linger around and seek harm. Call upon St. Michael for assistance. Know that I am with you each time you speak My words. Be firm with those who seek to advise you for this is a greater mission that you cannot deny. Be firm through the example of love for unless you are firm with love you will not accomplish great things. Now go forth for I am Jesus and My mercy and justice will prevail.
5/27/08 3:05 PM
My child, I come to you now with the fullness of the Trinity. I come to you for I am Jesus the Savior of the world, Divine Mercy itself! This is a time of great change for a new tide has come forth for all that I have spoken to you in My words for the world will now be fulfilled.
Great darkness will soon come and cover this earth and seasons will be altered. All that consumes you now will be of no merit. You will witness catastrophic events. Many will be wandering in search of food and shelter. Many will be in search of light in this dark world. War will rise up and it will collapse your financial abilities in your country for even the rich will be amongst the poor for changes in your currency are soon to come forth.
The west will be shaken to its core and it will awaken the mountains below the sea. I will raise My right hand and the seas will rise up for areas that are will no longer be. Gather your food now for you are soon to witness a great plague that will call many to stand before me.
Know that through all of this that I am with you. My Mother’s Immaculate Heart will triumph. Mankind is in the midst of destroying himself and has lost focus on My true presence in the Eucharist; has lost sight of the life of My little ones in the womb.
The chalice is overflowing for this world must be purified of its filth for the greater survival of humanity. My child, go forth in greater prayer for the floodgates of justice have now opened for I am Jesus and My mercy and justice will prevail.
8/10/08 6:30 PM
My child, My peace be with you. I come to you for the hour is drawing to a close. My child, I give you this message because I am longing for prayers just as My people are longing for peace.
Bind your Rosaries for greater turmoil is going to come. I spoke to you before to be aware of Russia and China. Be aware for there are many Judases that linger around you. Many will seek to condemn you for speaking the truth. Many will seek to guide you in a way that will try and bring forth division. This is a time when you must stay united as a group.
Gather often so that I can give greater graces for being obedient to My words. My mantle of protection is around you.I am pleased that you bless your children under My protection. Know this that the sword of St. Michael has been drawn. Go forth in ways of preparation for you are prepared little and little time remains.
The world is soon to be at war, heed to the words of My mother the words in which she spoke to you for the final act of Satan is raging on and he is seeking his final victims. Recite the Chaplet of My Most Divine Mercy often for the many who are soon to stand before me for I am Jesus and My mercy and justice will prevail.
8/24/08 5:20 PM
My child, it is not the darkness that lingers outside your country rather it is the darkness that is culminating all over America that will simultaneously take over towns and villages. I have warned that your country has been spread to thin and that is why you must have the necessary things to protect yourself from this darkness.
You are seeing how countries are being taken over and food for My people is limited. Your nation is at great vulnerability. Prayer and fasting is needed for the turmoil that lies ahead. Be on guard, be on guard for changes in your currency are soon to come forth, this is a time to truly heed to My words of warning for you country is soon to face a great disruption. Now go forth for I am Jesus and be at peace for My mercy and justice will prevail.

Our Lady of the Sierras March 27,2009 Message of March 27th, 2009 Saint Michael Speaks
The following verbal message was received and audibly recorded during the Friday night rosary at Mary’s Knoll. Of interest this was the first public message given during this lent of 2009. As in the past when St. Michael speaks it’s with a powerful voice that was strong enough to be heard by many others.
"I speak at the command of My Lord. Repent, Reform and Rejoice. The Almighty has commanded these words to be spoken. During this holy time look deeply within your hearts .. see how your offenses have caused great sorrow to the Lord who loves you.
Reform as you confess your sins … and then little ones rejoice, as he has touched and healed you thru His forgiveness. In truly learning how to love you shall know of His presence. You, will be the instruments He has chosen thru these difficult moments . these difficult final times into which He is gathering all of his servants. Let your hearts not be troubled but be filled with the confidence that God truly loves you and truly wishes you to be with Him.
No matter what your state of life or physical being He is with you and seeks to draw you closer to Him. Each one, no matter what the physical condition plays an important role in the salvation for mankind. For in suffering you will find the joy that God Himself found upon the cross knowing that it was not wasted. It was a gift from God so too, you must realize and accept that all things permitted by God are used by Him in this special way.
Wake up . wake up and see before it is too late. For I am not here to cause you concern but to strengthen you to tell you of God’s mercy and to tell you that you are armed with His love and His strength. When you say, "I am unable to do what you have called me to do", Our Lord comes to your rescue . if you but say . It is with your strength and your strength alone I obey . I follow and I surrender . to the Holy One of God.
Peace and only peace He brings you".
(Recipient) "God is with us this night. It was He, Michael, who came as God’s Messenger". "Tongues".
Vision to littlest of servants March 30, 2009
While in Church this morning before Mass while praying in front of the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following vision.
I saw JESUS and HE was outside my pew. I could see that HE looked like HE had just been scourged with HIS hands tied in front of HIM and WOUNDS all over HIS BODY.
HE then told me that the priests, bishops, and cardinals were SCOURGING HIM again by their disobedience to HIS PETER, THE POPE.
I then saw a priest, a bishop, and a cardinal all dressed up in their religious clothing. JESUS then spoke to me and told me that although they appear as HOLY on the outside by their DRESS they are DEAD to HIM on the inside.
That they appear to serve HIM by their DRESS and RELIGIOUS CEREMONIES but deny the POWER of HIS CHURCH, THE HOLY SPIRIT!!!
I then saw the priest, the bishop, and the cardinal smiling as people were lined up with whips striking JESUS on HIS BACK.
JESUS spoke again and told me that by their disobedience the shepherds were leading the flock away from the CHURCH and its TEACHINGS and as a result the flock was now adding to HIS WOUNDS by their disobedience.

Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 02- Pray to understand the Fathers will "In the Virgin's example of silent and fruitful listening, contemplation helps grasp the presence of the Living One in the Eucharist and aids in transfiguring the deaths that mark the earthly city into a commitment for life and hope in the resurrection" (Pope John Paul II, Servant of God).
"You, eternal Father, are the table that offers us as food the Lamb, your only-begotten Son. He is the most exquisite of foods for us . . . that we receive in Holy Communion, which feeds and strengthens us while we are pilgrim travelers in this life" (St. Catherine of Siena).
Mother Teresa Never let anything so fill you with pain or sorrow so as to make you forget the joy of Christ Risen.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 2 It is necessary to be strong to become great: this is our duty. Life is a struggle from which we cannot withdraw, but we must triumph (CE,33).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -Where is the true passion of politics? "Because we hate certain things, other passions which are related to struggle with difficulties also arise... Coming back to want of fire and enthusiasm in our politicians, the reason is rather obvious. They have no great central overwhelming cause to which they are dedicated with the full fervor of their being, and they have no great shock at evil or wrong."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Jesus, my Love, today gave me to understand how much He loves me, although there is such an enormous gap between us, the Creator and the creature; and yet, in a way, there is something like equality: love fills up the gap. He Himself descends to me and makes me capable of communing with Him. I immerse myself in Him, losing myself as it were; and yet, under His loving gaze, my soul gains strength and power and an awareness that it loves and is especially loved. It knows that the Mighty One protects it. Such prayer, though short, benefits the soul greatly, and whole hours of ordinary prayer do not give the soul that light which is given by a brief moment of this higher form of prayer. (815)
I have come to understand today that even if I did not accomplish any of the things the Lord is demanding of me, I know that I shall be rewarded as if I had fulfilled everything, because He sees the intention with which I begin, and even if He called me to himself today, the work would not suffer at all by that, because He himself is the Lord of both the work and the worker. My part is to love Him to folly; all works are nothing more than a tiny drop before Him. It is love that has meaning and power and merit. He has opened up great horizons in my soul-love compensates for the chasms. (822)

APRIL 2 - PRAY TO UNDERSTAND THE FATHER'S LOVE
Our Lady speaks of understanding the will of the Father and his love: O children! Remember that the only way you can be always with me, and know the will of the Father, is to pray. That is why I call you again today. Do not let my calls go unheeded. Above all else, continue to pray, for then you will understand the Father's will and his love for you (Locutionist Jelena & Mirijana May 16, 1987).
In Matthew's gospel, Christ also speaks of the Father and his promised reward to those who pray:
And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward. But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father in secret; and then your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you (Mt 6:5-6).
Reflection:
Prayer to God the Father is powerful, for among other things, "you will understand the Father's will and his love for you," as Mary tells us today. Humble prayer, "in secret", as Jesus advises in our gospel reading is always heard by the Father and swiftly answered.
The following "Petition to God" was dictated to Jelena, one of the Medjugorje locutionists, by the Blessed Mother. It was distributed throughout the church by the priest at Medjugorje. Let us offer it in response to the Virgin's message today:
O God, our hearts are deeply obscured, despite our bond to your heart. Our hearts are rent between you and Satan; between good and evil; enlighten and unify them with your grace. Do not permit two loves to exist in us, or two faiths; grant that we may never be torn between lying and sincerity, love and hatred, honesty and dishonesty, humility and pride.
Help us to raise our hearts to you like those of children. May you renew and fill our hearts with peace; may the longing for peace grow within us. May your holy will and love dwell in us that we may truly desire to be your children. Remember our past devotion and help us to again receive your Spirit.
With open hearts we seek that you will be done in us. With open souls we seek your tender mercy. May your mercy strengthen us to recognize our sins which make us impure. Lord God, we wish to be your children, humble and devout, sincere and cherished, as you desire us to be.
And may you, brother Jesus, intercede with the Father, that he may bless us with his goodness and inspire us to respond with goodness. Help us, Lord Jesus, to comprehend the Father's infinite love and manifold gifts, that we may never fail to please him with works of love and peace. Amen.
Application:
Offer this Petition to God once more today, perhaps this evening. May it be a prayer from your heart.
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 01 - May you be the hope and joy of mankind
"Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy," Jesus told St. Maria Faustina of the Blessed Sacrament, "Adore, in the Blessed Sacrament, My Heart, which is full of mercy." "I want Adoration to take place . . . for the intention of imploring Mercy for the world." (Divine Mercy Diary, 300, 1572, & 1070)
Pope John Paul II to Archbishop
Mother Teresa "The cross is the proof that He loved us and the Tabernacle is the proof that He loves us now with tender compassion".
The Cross is a thorny fruit which outside is most pungent. After the thorns and bark are removed, one finds a precious and savory fruit, that only she who has the patience to endure the annoyance of the punctures, can come to discover the secret of the preciousness and the taste of that fruit. And only she who has come to discover this secret keeps it with love. And all the others look at it with contempt and despise it.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 1 Doesn't the Holy Spirit tells us that when the soul approaches God it must be prepared for temptations? Courage, therefore, courage my good daughter. Fight valiantly and you will receive the prize of strong souls (Letters III, p. 427).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen The Passion of Love and Hate "The root of all passions are love and its opposite, hate. Hence our passions are either for the pursuit of what we love, or escape from what we hate."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Jesus, lover of human salvation, draw all souls to the divine life. May the greatness of Your mercy be praised here on earth and in eternity. O great lover of souls, who in Your boundless compassion opened the salutary fountains of mercy so that weak souls may be fortified in this life's pilgrimage, Your mercy runs through our life like a golden thread and maintains in good order the contact of our being with God.
For He does not need anything to make Him happy; so everything is solely the work of His mercy. My senses are transfixed with joy when God grants me a deeper awareness of that great attribute of His; namely, His unfathomable mercy. (1466)
Jesus, hide me in Your mercy and shield me against everything that might terrify my soul. Do not let my trust in Your mercy be disappointed. Shield me with the omnipotence of Your mercy, and judge me leniently as well. (1480)
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.
APRIL 1 - MAY YOU BE THE JOY OF MANKIND
The Blessed Virgin speaks of joy today:
"Dear Children, persevere in prayer so that your hearts may be filled with joy. Dear children, may you be the hope and joy of mankind, But you can only achieve this through prayer. Pray, pray! (Visionary Prayer Group May 3rd, 1986).
In his prayer to the Father, Jesus speaks of conveying his joy to his disciples:
While I was with them, I protected them in your name that you have given me. I guarded the, and not one of them was lost except the one destined to be lost, so that the scripture might be fulfilled. But now I am coming to you, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made complete in themselves (Jn17:12-13)
Reflection:
Joy is a unique quality of the Christian life. It seems to be born of trust in God's love for us and for all aspects of our lives. Fr. Slavko Barbaric, spiritual director to the visionaries, recently gave a sermon on Our Lady's messages of prayer and joy.
Here, in part, is what he said:
Normally, after meeting someone, you need time to get to know him, tell him about yourself, exchange views, and so forth. However, if our prayer only consists of an occasional "hello" to someone who only occupies a corner of our lives, then we probably aren't going to experience great joy.
The problem is that we all want joy but we're not willing to follow the path that leads to its source: prayer from the heart. That is why Our Lady asks us so urgently to, "pray, pray!" It is the means to happiness.
Application:
Today the Mother of God asks that we make our hearts, "joyful through the means of prayer." To this end, try to extend and deepen your prayer so that you will more fully experience that joy.
Medjugorje Day By Day Mar 31 - Open your hearts to the Holy Spirit
"Whenever we are shaken by the sight of evil spreading in the universe . . . we should not forget that such unleashing of the forces of sin is overcome by the saving power of Christ. Whenever the words of consecration are uttered in the Mass and the Body and Blood of Christ become present in the act of the sacrifice, the triumph of love over hatred, of holiness over sin, is also present. Every Eucharistic Celebration is stronger than all the evil in the universe; it means real, concrete accomplishment of the redemption" (Pope John Paul II).
Bl. Elizabeth of the Trinity, Carmelite Nun (1880-1906) France: Bl. Elizabeth wrote, "When Our Lord was on earth, the Gospel says `a secret power went out from Him,' at His touch the sick recovered their health, the dead were restored to life. Well, He is still living! living in the tabernacle in His adorable Sacrament." "When you are close to the tabernacle in which love incarnate dwells, there is no distance."
Mother Teresa - We must say, " I belong to you. You can do whatever you like. " And this is our strength and this is the joy of the Lord.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Accept all the suffering and incomprehension that comes from Above. In this way you will perfect and sanctity yourself (FSP, 119).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen Passion is not unconscious! "The eye has a reflex action when someone is about to thrust his finger into it, but passion is a conscious affair; it is something that happens to a creature endowed with reason and free will."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
After I had gone into the refectory, during the reading, my whole being found itself plunged in God. Interiorly, I saw God looking at us with great pleasure. I remained alone with the Heavenly Father. At that moment, I had a deeper knowledge of the Three Divine Persons, whom we shall contemplate for all eternity and, after millions of years, shall discover that we have just barely begun our contemplation. Oh, how great is the mercy of God, who allows man to participate in such a high degree in His divine happiness! At the same time, what great pain pierces my heart [at the thought] that so many souls have spurned this happiness. (1439)
Write, speak of My mercy. Tell souls where they are to look for solace; that is, in the Tribunal of Mercy [the Sacrament of Reconciliation] There the greatest miracles take place [and] are incessantly repeated. To avail oneself of this miracle, it is not necessary to go on a great pilgrimage or to carry out some external ceremony; it suffices to come with faith to the feet of My representative and to reveal to him one's misery, and the miracle of Divine Mercy will be fully demonstrated.
Were a soul like a decaying corpse so that from a human standpoint, there would be no [hope of] restoration and everything would already be lost, it is not so with God. The miracle of Divine Mercy restores that soul in full. Oh, how miserable are those who do not take advantage of the miracle of God's mercy!... (1448)

Mar 31 - OPEN YOUR HEARTS TO THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Holy Spirit is the topic of Our Lady's message today:
"Dear Children, during these days I call you to especially open your hearts to the Holy Spirit, who is working through you. Open your hearts and surrender your lives to Jesus so that he can work through your hearts and strengthen you in faith (Weekly Message May 23, 1985).
And from Acts:
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon yon; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8).
Reflections:
Jesus wishes to give us the power of the Holy Spirit, and the Blessed Mother asks us to be open to receive his power. With faith and openness, then let us pray to the Spirit using The Sequence of the Holy Spirit, one of the loveliest prayer-poems of the church:
Holy Spirit, Lord of light, from the clear celestial height Thy pure beaming radiance give. Come, thou Father of the poor, Come, with treasures which endure; Come, thou light of all that live!
Thou, of all consolers best, Thou, the soul's delightful guest, Dost refreshing peace bestow; Thou in toil art comfort sweet; Pleasant coolness in the heat; Solace in the midst of woe.
Light immortal, light divine, Visit thou these hearts of thine, And our inmost being fill: If thou take thy grace away, Nothing pure in man will stay; All his good is turned to ill.
Heal our wounds, our strength renew; On our dryness pour thy dew; Wash the stains of guilt away; Bend the stubborn heart and will; Melt the frozen, warm the chill; Guide the steps that go astray.
Thou, on us who evermore Thee confess and thee adore, With thy sevenfold gifts descend: Give us comfort when we die; Give us life with thee on high; Give us joys that never end.
Application:
Make it a habit to pray to the Holy Spirit each day, as the Virgin asks of us.

SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH
"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."
Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.
Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails. Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

Our Lady of the Sierras March 27,2009 Message of March 27th, 2009 Saint Michael Speaks
The following verbal message was received and audibly recorded during the Friday night rosary at Mary’s Knoll. Of interest this was the first public message given during this lent of 2009. As in the past when St. Michael speaks it’s with a powerful voice that was strong enough to be heard by many others.
"I speak at the command of My Lord. Repent, Reform and Rejoice. The Almighty has commanded these words to be spoken. During this holy time look deeply within your hearts .. see how your offenses have caused great sorrow to the Lord who loves you.
Reform as you confess your sins … and then little ones rejoice, as he has touched and healed you thru His forgiveness. In truly learning how to love you shall know of His presence. You, will be the instruments He has chosen thru these difficult moments . these difficult final times into which He is gathering all of his servants. Let your hearts not be troubled but be filled with the confidence that God truly loves you and truly wishes you to be with Him.
No matter what your state of life or physical being He is with you and seeks to draw you closer to Him. Each one, no matter what the physical condition plays an important role in the salvation for mankind. For in suffering you will find the joy that God Himself found upon the cross knowing that it was not wasted. It was a gift from God so too, you must realize and accept that all things permitted by God are used by Him in this special way.
Wake up . wake up and see before it is too late. For I am not here to cause you concern but to strengthen you to tell you of God’s mercy and to tell you that you are armed with His love and His strength. When you say, "I am unable to do what you have called me to do", Our Lord comes to your rescue . if you but say . It is with your strength and your strength alone I obey . I follow and I surrender . to the Holy One of God.
Peace and only peace He brings you".
(Recipient) "God is with us this night. It was He, Michael, who came as God’s Messenger". "Tongues".
Vision to littlest of servants March 30, 2009
While in Church this morning before Mass while praying in front of the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following vision.
I saw JESUS and HE was outside my pew. I could see that HE looked like HE had just been scourged with HIS hands tied in front of HIM and WOUNDS all over HIS BODY.
HE then told me that the priests, bishops, and cardinals were SCOURGING HIM again by their disobedience to HIS PETER, THE POPE.
I then saw a priest, a bishop, and a cardinal all dressed up in their religious clothing. JESUS then spoke to me and told me that although they appear as HOLY on the outside by their DRESS they are DEAD to HIM on the inside.
That they appear to serve HIM by their DRESS and RELIGIOUS CEREMONIES but deny the POWER of HIS CHURCH, THE HOLY SPIRIT!!!
I then saw the priest, the bishop, and the cardinal smiling as people were lined up with whips striking JESUS on HIS BACK.
JESUS spoke again and told me that by their disobedience the shepherds were leading the flock away from the CHURCH and its TEACHINGS and as a result the flock was now adding to HIS WOUNDS by their disobedience.
JESUS SPEAKS. I AM DESIRE THAT YOU OBEY, PRAY, AND LOVE MY PETER WHO IS POPE BENEDICT XVI. HE IS YOUR LEADER. HE IS YOUR DEAR, DEAR, PAPA. LOVE HIM!!! LOVE HIM!!! LOVE HIM!!!

Mother Teresa Never let anything so fill you with pain or sorrow so as to make you forget the joy of Christ Risen.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 2 It is necessary to be strong to become great: this is our duty. Life is a struggle from which we cannot withdraw, but we must triumph (CE,33).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -Where is the true passion of politics? "Because we hate certain things, other passions which are related to struggle with difficulties also arise... Coming back to want of fire and enthusiasm in our politicians, the reason is rather obvious. They have no great central overwhelming cause to which they are dedicated with the full fervor of their being, and they have no great shock at evil or wrong."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Jesus, my Love, today gave me to understand how much He loves me, although there is such an enormous gap between us, the Creator and the creature; and yet, in a way, there is something like equality: love fills up the gap. He Himself descends to me and makes me capable of communing with Him. I immerse myself in Him, losing myself as it were; and yet, under His loving gaze, my soul gains strength and power and an awareness that it loves and is especially loved. It knows that the Mighty One protects it. Such prayer, though short, benefits the soul greatly, and whole hours of ordinary prayer do not give the soul that light which is given by a brief moment of this higher form of prayer. (815)
I have come to understand today that even if I did not accomplish any of the things the Lord is demanding of me, I know that I shall be rewarded as if I had fulfilled everything, because He sees the intention with which I begin, and even if He called me to himself today, the work would not suffer at all by that, because He himself is the Lord of both the work and the worker. My part is to love Him to folly; all works are nothing more than a tiny drop before Him. It is love that has meaning and power and merit. He has opened up great horizons in my soul-love compensates for the chasms. (822)

APRIL 2 - PRAY TO UNDERSTAND THE FATHER'S LOVE
Our Lady speaks of understanding the will of the Father and his love: O children! Remember that the only way you can be always with me, and know the will of the Father, is to pray. That is why I call you again today. Do not let my calls go unheeded. Above all else, continue to pray, for then you will understand the Father's will and his love for you (Locutionist Jelena & Mirijana May 16, 1987).
In Matthew's gospel, Christ also speaks of the Father and his promised reward to those who pray:
And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward. But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father in secret; and then your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you (Mt 6:5-6).
Reflection:
Prayer to God the Father is powerful, for among other things, "you will understand the Father's will and his love for you," as Mary tells us today. Humble prayer, "in secret", as Jesus advises in our gospel reading is always heard by the Father and swiftly answered.
The following "Petition to God" was dictated to Jelena, one of the Medjugorje locutionists, by the Blessed Mother. It was distributed throughout the church by the priest at Medjugorje. Let us offer it in response to the Virgin's message today:
O God, our hearts are deeply obscured, despite our bond to your heart. Our hearts are rent between you and Satan; between good and evil; enlighten and unify them with your grace. Do not permit two loves to exist in us, or two faiths; grant that we may never be torn between lying and sincerity, love and hatred, honesty and dishonesty, humility and pride.
Help us to raise our hearts to you like those of children. May you renew and fill our hearts with peace; may the longing for peace grow within us. May your holy will and love dwell in us that we may truly desire to be your children. Remember our past devotion and help us to again receive your Spirit.
With open hearts we seek that you will be done in us. With open souls we seek your tender mercy. May your mercy strengthen us to recognize our sins which make us impure. Lord God, we wish to be your children, humble and devout, sincere and cherished, as you desire us to be.
And may you, brother Jesus, intercede with the Father, that he may bless us with his goodness and inspire us to respond with goodness. Help us, Lord Jesus, to comprehend the Father's infinite love and manifold gifts, that we may never fail to please him with works of love and peace. Amen.
Application:
Offer this Petition to God once more today, perhaps this evening. May it be a prayer from your heart.
Medjugorje Day By Day Apr 01 - May you be the hope and joy of mankind
"Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy," Jesus told St. Maria Faustina of the Blessed Sacrament, "Adore, in the Blessed Sacrament, My Heart, which is full of mercy." "I want Adoration to take place . . . for the intention of imploring Mercy for the world." (Divine Mercy Diary, 300, 1572, & 1070)
Pope John Paul II to Archbishop
Mother Teresa "The cross is the proof that He loved us and the Tabernacle is the proof that He loves us now with tender compassion".
The Cross is a thorny fruit which outside is most pungent. After the thorns and bark are removed, one finds a precious and savory fruit, that only she who has the patience to endure the annoyance of the punctures, can come to discover the secret of the preciousness and the taste of that fruit. And only she who has come to discover this secret keeps it with love. And all the others look at it with contempt and despise it.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Apr 1 Doesn't the Holy Spirit tells us that when the soul approaches God it must be prepared for temptations? Courage, therefore, courage my good daughter. Fight valiantly and you will receive the prize of strong souls (Letters III, p. 427).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen The Passion of Love and Hate "The root of all passions are love and its opposite, hate. Hence our passions are either for the pursuit of what we love, or escape from what we hate."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Jesus, lover of human salvation, draw all souls to the divine life. May the greatness of Your mercy be praised here on earth and in eternity. O great lover of souls, who in Your boundless compassion opened the salutary fountains of mercy so that weak souls may be fortified in this life's pilgrimage, Your mercy runs through our life like a golden thread and maintains in good order the contact of our being with God.
For He does not need anything to make Him happy; so everything is solely the work of His mercy. My senses are transfixed with joy when God grants me a deeper awareness of that great attribute of His; namely, His unfathomable mercy. (1466)
Jesus, hide me in Your mercy and shield me against everything that might terrify my soul. Do not let my trust in Your mercy be disappointed. Shield me with the omnipotence of Your mercy, and judge me leniently as well. (1480)
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.
APRIL 1 - MAY YOU BE THE JOY OF MANKIND
The Blessed Virgin speaks of joy today:
"Dear Children, persevere in prayer so that your hearts may be filled with joy. Dear children, may you be the hope and joy of mankind, But you can only achieve this through prayer. Pray, pray! (Visionary Prayer Group May 3rd, 1986).
In his prayer to the Father, Jesus speaks of conveying his joy to his disciples:
While I was with them, I protected them in your name that you have given me. I guarded the, and not one of them was lost except the one destined to be lost, so that the scripture might be fulfilled. But now I am coming to you, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made complete in themselves (Jn17:12-13)
Reflection:
Joy is a unique quality of the Christian life. It seems to be born of trust in God's love for us and for all aspects of our lives. Fr. Slavko Barbaric, spiritual director to the visionaries, recently gave a sermon on Our Lady's messages of prayer and joy.
Here, in part, is what he said:
Normally, after meeting someone, you need time to get to know him, tell him about yourself, exchange views, and so forth. However, if our prayer only consists of an occasional "hello" to someone who only occupies a corner of our lives, then we probably aren't going to experience great joy.
The problem is that we all want joy but we're not willing to follow the path that leads to its source: prayer from the heart. That is why Our Lady asks us so urgently to, "pray, pray!" It is the means to happiness.
Application:
Today the Mother of God asks that we make our hearts, "joyful through the means of prayer." To this end, try to extend and deepen your prayer so that you will more fully experience that joy.
Medjugorje Day By Day Mar 31 - Open your hearts to the Holy Spirit
"Whenever we are shaken by the sight of evil spreading in the universe . . . we should not forget that such unleashing of the forces of sin is overcome by the saving power of Christ. Whenever the words of consecration are uttered in the Mass and the Body and Blood of Christ become present in the act of the sacrifice, the triumph of love over hatred, of holiness over sin, is also present. Every Eucharistic Celebration is stronger than all the evil in the universe; it means real, concrete accomplishment of the redemption" (Pope John Paul II).
Bl. Elizabeth of the Trinity, Carmelite Nun (1880-1906) France: Bl. Elizabeth wrote, "When Our Lord was on earth, the Gospel says `a secret power went out from Him,' at His touch the sick recovered their health, the dead were restored to life. Well, He is still living! living in the tabernacle in His adorable Sacrament." "When you are close to the tabernacle in which love incarnate dwells, there is no distance."
Mother Teresa - We must say, " I belong to you. You can do whatever you like. " And this is our strength and this is the joy of the Lord.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Accept all the suffering and incomprehension that comes from Above. In this way you will perfect and sanctity yourself (FSP, 119).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen Passion is not unconscious! "The eye has a reflex action when someone is about to thrust his finger into it, but passion is a conscious affair; it is something that happens to a creature endowed with reason and free will."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
After I had gone into the refectory, during the reading, my whole being found itself plunged in God. Interiorly, I saw God looking at us with great pleasure. I remained alone with the Heavenly Father. At that moment, I had a deeper knowledge of the Three Divine Persons, whom we shall contemplate for all eternity and, after millions of years, shall discover that we have just barely begun our contemplation. Oh, how great is the mercy of God, who allows man to participate in such a high degree in His divine happiness! At the same time, what great pain pierces my heart [at the thought] that so many souls have spurned this happiness. (1439)
Write, speak of My mercy. Tell souls where they are to look for solace; that is, in the Tribunal of Mercy [the Sacrament of Reconciliation] There the greatest miracles take place [and] are incessantly repeated. To avail oneself of this miracle, it is not necessary to go on a great pilgrimage or to carry out some external ceremony; it suffices to come with faith to the feet of My representative and to reveal to him one's misery, and the miracle of Divine Mercy will be fully demonstrated.
Were a soul like a decaying corpse so that from a human standpoint, there would be no [hope of] restoration and everything would already be lost, it is not so with God. The miracle of Divine Mercy restores that soul in full. Oh, how miserable are those who do not take advantage of the miracle of God's mercy!... (1448)

Mar 31 - OPEN YOUR HEARTS TO THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Holy Spirit is the topic of Our Lady's message today:
"Dear Children, during these days I call you to especially open your hearts to the Holy Spirit, who is working through you. Open your hearts and surrender your lives to Jesus so that he can work through your hearts and strengthen you in faith (Weekly Message May 23, 1985).
And from Acts:
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon yon; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8).
Reflections:
Jesus wishes to give us the power of the Holy Spirit, and the Blessed Mother asks us to be open to receive his power. With faith and openness, then let us pray to the Spirit using The Sequence of the Holy Spirit, one of the loveliest prayer-poems of the church:
Holy Spirit, Lord of light, from the clear celestial height Thy pure beaming radiance give. Come, thou Father of the poor, Come, with treasures which endure; Come, thou light of all that live!
Thou, of all consolers best, Thou, the soul's delightful guest, Dost refreshing peace bestow; Thou in toil art comfort sweet; Pleasant coolness in the heat; Solace in the midst of woe.
Light immortal, light divine, Visit thou these hearts of thine, And our inmost being fill: If thou take thy grace away, Nothing pure in man will stay; All his good is turned to ill.
Heal our wounds, our strength renew; On our dryness pour thy dew; Wash the stains of guilt away; Bend the stubborn heart and will; Melt the frozen, warm the chill; Guide the steps that go astray.
Thou, on us who evermore Thee confess and thee adore, With thy sevenfold gifts descend: Give us comfort when we die; Give us life with thee on high; Give us joys that never end.
Application:
Make it a habit to pray to the Holy Spirit each day, as the Virgin asks of us.

SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH
"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."
Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.
Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails. Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

Medjugorje Day By Day Mar 30 - REFLECT ON JESUS PASSION
"The privileged place where we can find this Jesus 'in agony until the end of the world' is the Eucharist. Jesus instituted it immediately before going to the Garden of Olives so that his disciples would be able, in every age, to make themselves 'contemporary' with his Passion.
If the Spirit inspires in us the desire to be one hour at the side of Jesus in Gethsemane this Lent, the simplest way to achieve it is to spend, on Thursday afternoon, one hour before the Blessed Sacrament" (Father Raniero Cantalamessa, March 17, 2006). t
"This practice of adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, repeatedly praised and recommended by the Magisterium, is supported by the example of many saints. Particularly outstanding in this regard was Saint Alphonsus Liguori, who wrote: `Of all devotions, that of adoring Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the greatest after the sacraments, the one dearest to God and the one most helpful to us'.
The Eucharist is a priceless treasure: by not only celebrating it but also by praying before it outside of Mass we are enabled to make contact with the very wellspring of grace. A Christian community desirous of contemplating the face of Christ . . . cannot fail also to develop this aspect of Eucharistic worship, which prolongs and increases the fruits of our communion in the body and blood of the Lord."
"Like the woman who anointed Jesus in Bethany, the Church has feared no `extravagance', devoting the best of her resources to expressing her wonder and adoration before the unsurpassable gift of the Eucharist" (Ecclesia de Eucharistia, Pope John Paul II, 25 and 48).
Mother Teresa - Our yes to God is without any reservations.
We are at Jesus' disposal. If He wants you to be sick in bed, if He wants you to proclaim His word in the street, that's all right, everything is all right.
Meditations by Padre Pio - . I am extremely pleased to hear that the Lord is always generous with His caresses towards your souls. I know you are suffering, but isn't this suffering a sure sign that God loves you? (Letters III, p. 707).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen Passion is blind without knowledge
"Passion is not a reflex like the watering of a dog's mouth in the presence of food. It is true that there are many similarities between passion in animals and passion in man, but it must never be forgotten that in man, passion cannot operate unless something is known."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - When I entered the chapel for a moment in the evening, I felt a terrible thorn in my head. This lasted for a short time, but the pricking was so painful that in an instant my head dropped onto the communion rail. It seemed to me that the thorn had thrust itself into my brain. But all this is nothing; it is all for the sake of souls, to obtain God's mercy for them. (1399)
Christ, give me souls. Let anything You like happen to me, but give me souls in return. I want the salvation of souls. I want souls to know Your mercy. I have nothing left for myself, because I have given everything away to souls, with the result that on the day of judgment I will stand before You empty-handed, since I have given everything away to souls. Thus You will have nothing on which to judge me, and we shall meet on that day: Love and mercy... (1426)
Today during confession, breaking the wafer with me spiritually, he [my confessor] gave me the following wishes: "Be as faithful as you can to the grace of God; secondly, beg God's mercy for yourself and for the whole world, because we are all in great need of God's mercy." (1432)
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.
Mar 30 - REFLECT ON JESUS' PASSION
The Blessed Virgin speaks of the cross and prayer today:
Dear children, here is my second message for Lent. Renew your prayer before the cross. Dear children, I offer you special graces and Jesus offers you the extraordinary merits of the cross. Accept them and live! Reflect on Jesus ` passion. Unite your life to his (Weekly Message February 20, 1986).
Scripture and Reflection:
In view of Our Lady's message today, it might be well for us to simple meditate on the Passion of her Son, rather than engage in commentary St. Thomas a Kempis emphasized this as well when he wrote, "Take comfort in the Passion of Christ, and dwell willingly in his sacred wounds. Endure with Christ, suffer for him, if you wish to reign with him."
As you meditate on the passion narrative of St. Mark, read the lines unhurriedly, and pause in silent prayer if a phrase or word strikes you, for this is the Holy Spirit at work.
Then the soldiers led him into the courtyard of the palace (that is, the governor's headquarters); and they called together the whole cohort. And they clothed him in a purple cloak; and after twisting some thorns into a crown, they put it on him. And they began saluting him, "Hail, King of the Jews!" They struck his head with a reed, spat upon him, and knelt down in homage to him. After mocking him, they stripped him of the purple cloak and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.
…Then they brought Jesus to the placed called Golgotha (which means the place of the skull). And they offered him wine mixed with myrrh; but he did not take it. And they crucified him, and divided his clothes among them. Casting lots to decide what each should take.
…When it was noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. At three o'clock Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi. Lema sabachtani?" which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
When some of the bystanders heard it, they said, «Listen, he calling for Elijah." And someone ran, filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a stick, and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down."
Then Jesus gave a loud cry and breathed his last breath. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. Now when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way be breathed his last, he said, "Truly this man was God's Son!" (Mk 15:16-20, 22-24, 33-39).
Application:
Today, spend five minutes in meditation before the cross.
Medjugorje Day By Day Mar 29 - Wipe the tears from my face
"The Way of the Cross is thus a path leading to the heart of the Eucharistic mystery: popular piety and sacramental piety of the Church blend together and become one" (Pope Benedict XVI).
People do not know the secrets, my children, but when they learn of them it will be too late. Return to prayer! Nothing is more important. I wish the Lord would permit to enlighten you a little more about the secrets, but the graces you have already received are great enough.
Think how much you have offended him What have you given him of yourself? When was the last time you gave up something for the Lord? I do not want to reprimand you further, but to call you once again to prayer, fasting, and penance. If you wish to obtain a special grace from God by fasting, then let no one know you are fasting. If you wish to obtain a certain grace from God through a gift to the poor, then keep your almsgiving a secret between you and the Lord.
Listen to me, my children! Meditate on my message in prayer (Special Message January 28, 1987).
And from the Acts of the Apostles, this quote from Isaiah echoes Our Lady's words:
For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are hard of hearing, and they have shut their eyes; so that they might not look with their eyes, and listen with their ears, and understand with their heart and turn—and I would heal them (Acts 28:27).
Application: Simply heed the Gospa's advice in the last sentence of her message today: "Meditate on my message in prayer."
Medjugorje Day By Day Mar 28 - Encounter the living God
Message of March 25, 2006
"Courage, little children! I decided to lead you on the way of holiness. Renounce sin and set out on the way of salvation, the way which my Son has chosen. Through each of your tribulations and sufferings God will find the way of joy for you. Therefore, little children, pray. We are close to you with our love. Thank you for having responded to my call." Feast of the Annunciation of the Lord: "In an instant the Holy Spirit overshadows her [Mary], making her a living ciborium privileged to bear within herself for nine months the Guest who is the Host of the world" (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen). "Our Father Who are in Heaven in the heaven of the Eucharist . . . may we in all humility and zeal make You known, loved and adored by all men in the Holy Eucharist . . . Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Eucharistic Kingdom. Rule Thou alone forever over us for Your greater glory through the power of your love" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).
Pope John Paul II - Bishop Jean Chabbert of Perpignan, France states: "Medjugorje is the actual answer to the serious problems of today's world… I do know the pope is truly convinced of the authenticity of the apparitions." Medjugorje and the Church, Sr Emmanuel & Denis Nolan p 27
Mother Teresa - We obtain grace in proportion to our sanctity, to our fervor, and to our degree of union with our Lord.
Meditations by Padre Pio - The angels are jealous of us for one reason only; they are not able to suffer for God. Only through suffering can a soul say the certainty, "My God, You see I do love You!" (FM, 166).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen If we don't know about something we can't get passionate about it! "Passion cannot operate unless we have an idea about something. A woman will not `get mad' at a bargain counter, unless she knows that someone is getting the better selection. We speak of people becoming `enthused' about some idea - and an idea is knowledge. No one undergoes the passion of sadness without first having a knowledge of a loss or a disaster."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us. (1319)
At three o'clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in My abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy for the whole world. I will allow you to enter into My mortal sorrow. In this hour, I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in virtue of My Passion.... (1320)
As I was meditating on the sin of the Angels and their immediate punishment, I asked Jesus why the Angels had been punished as soon as they had sinned. I heard a voice: Because of their profound knowledge of God. No person on earth, even though a great saint, has such knowledge of God as an Angel has. Nevertheless, to me who am so miserable, You have shown Your mercy, O God, and this, time and time again. You carry me in the bosom of Your mercy and forgive me every time that I ask Your forgiveness with a contrite heart. (1332
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.
MARCH 28 - ENCOUNTER THE LIVING GOD
Our Lady speaks of encountering the Lord today:
"Dear Children, today I wish to call you to prayer so that you may encounter the living God. He offers and give himself to you, asking only that you freely answer his call.
Therefore, little children, set aside a special time each day when you pray in peace and humility, meeting with God the Creator. I am with you and intercede to God for you. Be alert that your prayer truly be a joyful encounter with God. (Monthly Message November 25, 1988)
In this passage, Paul gives us an example of intercessory prayer: For this reason, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of God's will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding… (Col 1: 9)
Reflection: As Our Lady stresses today, prayer is the most essential component of our lives, for it is a direct encounter with the living God.
Elsewhere, the Madonna asks that we pray for a number of her intentions (peace, conversion of sinners, the sick, etc.), as well as our own. As this array of prayer intentions can sometimes be difficult to remember or fit into one day, the following suggestions may help.
First, you many wish to write down on an index card the intentions you wish to pray for every day. Place the card in your wallet or purse (or in a prayerbook you use each day). Consult it as you pray the rosary, offering one decade for each intention; this will allow you to pray for 5 to 15 intentions each day.
Second, just as a priest normally has an intention for each Mass he offers, so you too can offer the Masses you attend for one or more special intentions. The same can be done for other prayer forms which the church offers us, such as the Stations of the Cross, litanies, and of course novenas.
Another form is conversational prayer with God. Here we simply speak to the Lord about our prayer intention, describing it and lifting it up, so to speak, for him to see and bless. But the most beautiful form of prayer may be that of sheer praise and gratitude, with the Lord himself searching our hearts for our special needs and intentions.
Application:
If advisable, write down your prayer intentions today. Remember that they can be prayed for in a variety of ways. It is our faithfulness that is most important.
Vision to littlest of servants March 28, 2009
While in Church before Mass while praying in front of the BLESSED SACRAMENT I received the following vision.
I saw the CRUCIFIX and it was suspended over the earth.
I then saw RAYS OF LIGHT come from the wounds in JESUS HANDS and they were covering the earth.
I then saw the CRUCIFIX and it was lying on the ground.
I then saw the CRUCIFIX and it was again suspended over the earth.
OUR LADY then spoke to me and told me that the world could only be SAVED by HER SON BUT THE WORLD HAS REJECTED THE CROSS, THE CRUCIFIX, AND BY DOING SO THEIR SALVATION.
OUR LADY THEN TOLD ME THAT THE WORLD MUST COME BACK TO THE CROSS, THE CRUCIFIX, TO BE SAVED
. THAT SOON A WORLD EVENT WILL BRING ALL MANKIND TO ITS KNEES BEFORE THE CROSS, THE CRUCIFIX.

Do Everything In The Presence Of God
Today at the 8:00 AM Mass I made an Act of Contrition in preparation of receiving the most Sacred Body And Blood of Christ in the Sacrament of Holy Communion.
I made small offerings to Jesus and Mary and prayed for all with special needs and intentions. After receiving the Most Sacred Host, I covered my face with both hands and on my knees, I told Jesus of my love and gratefulness for all His many blessings.
Then I prayed, Speak Lord (if it be His will), Your servant listens. There was a silence, but then Jesus spoke to my heart saying: Eileen, My child, every step you take, I AM with you, every thought you think, I feel and every word you speak, or action you take, I AM there! I want all My children to know that they are to live each day with an understanding that I see and hear all that they do.
Live your lives as though you are in the presence of God, for My children, you are. I love you as I love all My children. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Amen.

My very dear ones, I am the Holy Spirit of God, your Holy Spirit, your Spirit of Love. The Father calls you to love this day, My dear, dear ones; and so I am here to pour out this virtue, this way of being, this healing grace.
Jesus is Love, and so I pour out Jesus to you, for I am the love of the Father for the Son, of the Son for the Father. I am the enabler of all your gifts. I have said in the past that you do not know Me as well as you could, as well as I desire; as well as the Father desires for you; and, of course, as much as Jesus desires through His suffering, His death and resurrection.
I cannot tell you how important, how necessary I will be for you in the days to come, how much I will enable everything that protects you, that gives you the gift you need at the time, the words you will need, the alert stance you will take before hundreds who appear at your doorstep, broken, terrified, suffering, exhausted.
My children, I prepare you for these people, your dear brothers and sisters who will come to you in the needs you cannot imagine, in a condition that cannot even be explained. I know that you will be all they will need you to be, for the Father has deemed it so, the Son has said it, and I will enable this for you.
Give praise to your Triune God this day that all you will need to be, to have, to give will be there, will be who you are: not even thinking of your own needs, of your own requests, of your own desires and the way you would rather have someone take care of you! Believe now that you will have everything you need and be all you must be for these people then.
Believe that they are your greatest gift throughout your entire life, no matter the gifts you have received, for you will be in a different place then; and by a different place you know I mean spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and more open to the gifts that you will be given than you have ever been before, more transformed by them than you have ever experienced.
Spend this week, My children, giving praise, giving thanks to the Father and His perfect, wonderful plan for you, His faithful ones. You go into a territory you have never visited before, becoming one you have never been.
Do not be afraid, for you will know new strength. You will know new ability to cooperate with the gifts of Myself, your Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit of God, the Enabler of all you will become. Amen, My children. Rejoice, for this is such a special time in your lives and I rejoice with you and for you.
Amen, My children." Carol Ameche
