True and solid holiness consists in receiving, as a specialty of Divine Love, everything that can happen to us
September 25, 1995
"Dear Children! Today I invite you to fall in love with the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. Adore Him, little children, in your Parishes and in this way you will be united with the entire world. Jesus will become your friend and you will not talk of Him like someone whom you barely know. Unity with Him will be a joy for you and you will become witnesses to the love of Jesus that He has for every creature. Little children, when you adore Jesus you are also close to me. Thank you for having responded to my call."

Pope Pius XII writes of the importance of spending time with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, "The Divine Redeemer loves to listen to our entreaties, to speak with us familiarly, and to give us a refuge in His Heart which burns with love for us" (Mediator Dei).
A special request from Its Time

In this way we could double our daily emails in one day.
If they ask to be removed we do it immediately.
Pope John Paul II -
Bishop John Magee - former secretary to the Holy Father:
"Without question these apparitions [in Medjugorje] are entirely true."
(Medjugorje Reflections, Bedard, p 85) p 21
Mother Teresa -
We need to be someone for the destitute who not only lack a roof over their heads, but who are deprived of having someone who cares, someone to belong to.
Meditations by Padre Pio -
I cannot at all believe and therefore dispense you from meditation for the sole reason that you feel you gain nothing from it. The holy gift of prayer, my good daughter, is in the right hand of the Saviour, and to the degree to which you are emptied of yourself, that is, emptied of love of body and your own will, and that you continually become more well-rooted in holy humility, the Lord will communicate this to your heart.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
The difference between the penitent and proud
"Take the other case of those who suffer unjustly but with faith and love of God in their hearts. They may have a sadness in their hearts from pain and torture, but never remorse. They end in penitence or a making up for guilt by bearing patiently the trials of others. This is illustrated in the case of Judas and Peter. There is much similarity between the two, up to a point. Our Lord warned both of them that they would fail; He even told them that each would be a devil."
St. Faustina's diary
A light from the morning meditation: Whatever You do with me, Jesus, I will always love You, for I am Yours. Little matter whether You leave me here or put me somewhere else; I am always Yours.
It is with love that I abandon myself to Your most wise decrees, O God, and Your will, O Lord, is my daily nourishment. You, who know the beatings of my heart, know that it beats for You alone, my Jesus. Nothing can quench my longing for You. I am dying for You, Jesus. When will You take me into Your dwelling place [cf. John. 14:1-3]? (1145)
As long as we live, the love of God grows in us. Until we die, we ought to strive for the love of God. I have learned and experienced that souls living in love are distinguished in this: that they are greatly enlightened concerning the things of God, both in their own souls and in the souls of others. And simple souls, without an education, are outstanding for their knowledge. (1191)
Today, I have heard these words: My daughter, delight of My Heart, it is with pleasure that I look into your soul. I bestow many graces only because of you. I also withhold My punishments only because of you. You restrain Me, and I cannot vindicate the claims of My justice. You bind My hands with your love. (1193)
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.
Feb 22 - THE CHAIR OF PETER
In the first weeks of the apparitions, the Blessed Virgin kissed an image of the Pope and said :
"He is your father, the spiritual father of all. It is necessary to pray for him. " (First Years November 8,1981)
And in March of 1982, smiling at two large pictures of the Pope that had been brought by a woman from Osijek, Our Lady said : "He is your father, my angels. " (First Years March 2, 1982) In Matthew's gospel, Jesus responds to Peter's faith in these words : And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, an the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven (Mt 16 :18-19)
Reflection :
On the cross, Jesus gave us his mother to be our own. In a like manner, in today's message, Mary in turn points to the Holy Father and gives him to us as "the spiritual father of all. " The Chair of Peter is a gift from God who never leaves us without a shepherd to guide and teach us. It has been the charge of the Popes through the ages to hand down the body of faith which Christ gave to his apostles and followers, to preserve it in its integrity for future generations. Through the calm and turbulence of 2000 years, that legacy of faith has now come down to us and to the present Pope, who in turn will teach and preserve it. No other institution of any kind has so survived the ages, a sign of the Spirit's presence with the church , once called "Mother " to signify its mission of nourishing God's children. As Christians and Catholics, we give thanks today for this priceless legacy and for the successor of Peter who is "father of all. "
Application :
Our Lady says of the Pope in her message, "He is your father…it is necessary to pray for him. " Let us then offer a rosary for the Holy Father today, and remember him in prayer for the rest of the week. Today, simply speak to the Lord with your heart.
Info + Message-Poem via Dominique Biot of France - January 14, 2008
Dominique, whom Jesus mentioned in Henri's January 10th message, is Henri's male travelling-companion in this new mission. Henri and Dominique have been receiving messages from Heaven for several years; and in December 2007 Henri received his first public message, while a poem-message of Dominique's was first sent out via internet on January 10. Jesus told Dominique that from time to time, He will inspire him to draw from his Poem-Messages of the past.
The French messages via Henri and Dominique are presently being translated to English and will soon be available in other languages. Several people from different countries are diffusing these messages around the world via their own list and already two public messengers, having a spiritual director, have pronounced themselves in favor of the messages, as well as four priests: two from Canada, one from France and one from Africa; there is spiritual guidance as well as approval of the messages. - Rita Doucet
NEW MESSENGER FROM FRANCE
(translated from French)
MESSAGE-POEM FROM JESUS
via Dominique Biot of France
January 14, 2008
JESUS:
Unity
Your ways are not My ways,
My thoughts are not your thoughts!
O children of My Heart, why
Do you seek to understand, undermine, analyse
That which only My grace can enlighten?
Abandon yourself: you can only
Understand things in their fulfillment ...
It is only in My sacraments and a sincere heart
That you will find unity among you.
From confession draw the strength offered
Again and again to purify you, inspire you: yoke
So precious for your fragile little soul;
And receive Me thus!
To be in My thoughts, in My ways,
You must leave all to Me, the Savior;
Abandon your torn being and offer yourself
In Faith and Love, to My Heart!
My Church is sick, rebuild Her from the inside!
How I cry, My children, that you are not united,
Each intrepreting, distorting that which only grace,
By My Word and My sacraments, gives!
Traditionalists, Modernists, Protestants, Orthodox,
Shame on you for dividing yourself in this atheist world!
What a deplorable example from people
Saying they love Me! What an unorthodox example
In front of My children of other religions or pagans!
Do you think they will come to Me, this way?
I need Saints! Be Saints ... !
Dear children, despite the betrayals
Of many, I love you all,
Knowing that the plenitude of My revelation obtains itself
Among the christians worthy of this name. May all
Listen: Only the example supported by prayer,
Only the evangelization given when a heart
Listens finally at the right moment
After a fruitful suffering, only thus: I come!
It is rare, in your epoch, the souls who receive Me
Apart from that in obedience and uncompromising faith;
All the rest are but vain words,
Vanity of the self-important man ... !
Unity: only one pastor, only one flock
In My Church, soon! But what pain
Could be avoided if you loved more;
Draw from My Body and My Blood a fecundity
Bringing in the renewal! Mingle your blood
With Mine in order to obtain the Kingdom?
Not necessarily martyrdom, only
A spiritual combat where you will be victorious!
Go deep inside yourself
So that your heart burns with Love!
Unity waits for you!

Spe Salve - Pope Benedict XVI Encylical on Hope - Release 4
The heavens are not empty and life does not end in nothingness. Faith in Gods existence is the origin of Christian hope, it gives meaning to our existencethe existence of each person and everyone togetherand it allows us to look beyond fear towards the Last Judgment.
In his 2nd encyclical Spe Salvi (Saved in Hope) Pope Benedict XV affirms that the current faith in scientific progress and contesting of Gods existence based on the injustices of this world, are incapable of giving a true answer to mans questions on the future. Hope is learned and exercised in places of Prayer, action, sufferance and waiting for Gods Judgment. (Asia News11-30-07)
Over 7 weeks this new encyclical will be provided in its entirety, but in several parts to encourage those, who might not otherwise take the time to read it, to ponder the mystery of Hope in Gods Plan of salvation. Release 4:

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 20. 2008
MY DEAR DEAR PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILDREN,
I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOUR PERSEVERANCE. DESPITE THE BITTER COLD YOU COME
TO PRAY HERE WITH THE MOTHER OF GOD. WHAT GREAT OFFERINGS YOU MAKE AND
THESE OFFERINGS MAKE FOR YOU A LENT OF SACRIFICE AND SUFFERING. I TAKE YOUR
OFFERINGS BEFORE THE FATHER, AND HE IS PLEASED.
BECAUSE HE IS PLEASED, HE HAS ALLOWED THESE PETALS FROM HEAVEN TO BE MY OWN,
COMING FROM THE DEPTHS OF THIS, YOUR MOTHER'S HEART. AND SO I BEGIN WITH
SENTIMENTS OF LOVE. YOU ARE MY LITTLE ONES AND I NOT ONLY ENCOURAGE YOU IN
WAYS MOST PLEASING TO GOD, BUT I ALSO DRAW YOU INTO MY PROTECTION. NOT JUST
FROM THE WORLD, BUT FROM YOURSELVES. UNDERSTANDING HOW WEAK YOU ARE, I DRAW
FROM GOD'S ENDLESS SOURCE OF GRACE, AN ABUNDANCE. THROUGH THIS GRACE YOU
RECOGNIZE THE TRUTH AND THE IMPORTANCE OF LIVING IT. YOU THRIVE ON THE HOLY
EUCHARIST AND STAND FIRM IN PENITENCE. YOU ARE BUT FEW NOW, BUT THOUGH YOU
ARE FEW, YOUR UNITY WILL BE STRONG AGAINST EVIL AND BRING YOU FACE TO FACE
WITH JESUS AND YOU WILL THEN STAND WITH HIM.
I AM HAPPY TO GIVE YOU THESE WORDS. THEY REMIND YOU OF YOUR WORTH AND YOUR
COMMITMENT. CONSIDER ALL OF THIS MY SWEET CHILDREN, AND HOLD FAST TO THIS
MOTHER.
AND NOW WITH GREAT TENDERNESS AND SWEETNESS DO I BLESS YOU IN THE NAME OF
THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.
CONSIDERING THESE PETALS FROM HEAVEN, ACCEPT THE BLESSING OF CHRIST,
PRAISING AND THANKING GOD, FOREVER, FOREVER, FOREVER.

MESSAGE via, V+J
February 17, 2008- - -11:10 P.M.
L. began to receive a message from God and said, "Jesus, please cover me with
Your Most Precious Blood."
Then God your Father spoke, "It won't be long now children before your
televisions will be completely useless. This is a serious matter of control and
it (T.V.)
will contain THE CHIP! All will be monitored! Shows and commercials will be
extremely sinful in dress , word and actions.
A new age will begin for, in the near future, all electronics will have to
be bought new or you will need a special device to operate them.
Your homes and vehicles will be control devices used by evil men, controlled
by satan, to lead you astray.
Buy NO NEW gadgets! Buy NO NEW televisions or other electronic appliances,
phones, radios, etc. DO WITHOUT!
I am allowing satan to reign over the earth for a time to test all people.
This must be to fulfill Scripture. Remain with Me! Trust Me! Do not lose
hope! Keep the faith! I promise I WILL NEVER leave My own! Be strong no
matter what and stay strong until the end!
Pray unceasingly! My word is true and all WILL be be fulfilled. AMEN!"

Thursday Adoration ~ February 21, 2008
Jesus Reminds Us To Exert Caution In Our Daily Activities
Today I spent an hour alone with Jesus in meditation and prayed the Rosary
for all those with special needs and intentions. After offering up small
offerings to Jesus and Mary, I knelt and asked Jesus to please cover me with His
most precious blood and prayed saying, Speak Lord (if it be Your will), Your
servant listens.
Jesus responded to my heart with these words; Eileen My child, as a young
boy I often removed My sandals and walked in shallow ponds while splashing at
the water with My feet, yet cautious not to expose My whole body to the
elements.
I want all of My children to remain cautious as they play and experiment
with various types of exposure insuring not to hurt their body, or offend God.
Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers
and sisters. Amen.
