“I am the light”

Reading: Matthew 2:13-15

Dear friends,

“Behold the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, ‘Rise, take the child and his mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I tell you.” Matthew 2:13

We will have one hour of prayer in the prayer room from 11:00 p.m. to midnight tomorrow evening to thank the Lord for all He has done during 2007 and to ask for His help and protection for the New Year.

It will also be a time of reparation for all the insults hurled at Jesus during the past year.

My half-hour of prayer was spent with Our Lord Jesus to praise and thank Him for all the graces and help He gave us during the year that is slipping away.

He said, “Melvin, My brother and sharer in My priesthood, I love you. I bless and welcome all My brothers and sisters who wish to spend time with Me in prayer. I always wait for your visit every day.

The evil one was after Me right from My birth, desiring to destroy and eliminate Me from the face of the earth.

He used King Herod as his instrument by sending his army to Bethlehem to kill all the male children less than two years of age. My Father in heaven made sure that these soldiers would not find Me.

He sent an angel who appeared to Joseph in a dream to tell him to flee to Egypt with My Mother and Me. That very night he prepared everything and we fled Bethlehem toward Egypt. I was not welcomed in My homeland even though I was just an infant.

I had to go and live in a strange land. When it was time, the angel came back to Joseph in a dream to tell him that the King was dead and so we could return home.

The devil, the master of the darkness in the world, wanted to get rid of Me but he would not succeed until My hour had come.

However, I used this hour to offer My supreme sacrifice to My Father in heaven for the salvation of the people in the world. Through My sacrifice I defeated the evil one and My Kingdom was born.

I am the light who chases away the darkness spread by the enemy. His hold on the world is diminishing every time a person turns to Me, repents of his sins and enters My Kingdom.

All enter through the doors of My Church through baptism. Call everyone to enter the Kingdom prepared for you and there will be peace in the world. I love you and bless you.”

Father Melvin

Today's Message

December 29, 2007

 

“Come and I will take you to Jesus, my Son”

 

Reading: Luke 2:22-38

 

Dear friends,

 

Simeon said to our Blessed Mother in the temple, “and you yourself a sword will pierce.” Luke 2:35

 

My time of contemplative prayer this morning was spent with our Blessed Mother who said, “Melvin, my son and Jesus’ friend, I love you. I am interceding for all my sons and daughters, especially those who accept me as their Mother and have a devotion to me. I want you all to believe in my Son Jesus and be His disciples.

 

Soon after Jesus’ birth, Joseph and I took the Child Jesus to Jerusalem to present Him to God in the Temple according to the law of the Jews. In the Temple that day there was a very old and holy man called Simeon who was waiting for the arrival of the Messiah into the world. He recognized the small infant as the Saviour and he was filled with joy as he held Him in his arms. At the end he turned to me, Jesus’ Mother, and told me, ‘and you yourself a sword will pierce.’ I did not know the full meaning of these words but I knew I would have much to suffer.

 

The full realization of Simeon’s words came during the Passion and death of my dear Son. I met Him as He was carrying the cross along the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem and saw with my own eyes the suffering He had undergone. I was also present at Calvary as He hung upon the cross until death in terrible pain. It is there at the foot of the cross that Simeon’s prophecy was fully realized. I suffered martyrdom with Him as I stood there praying with Him for the salvation of all the people of the world. I knew that He had to suffer all this pain until death to pay the price for your sins.

 

Come and I will take you to Jesus, my Son, and your Saviour. Accept Him and believe in Him with all your heart. Repent and be His follower. I love you.”

 

Father Melvin

"Eternal Son of the living God, Whom I here acknowledge really present!  I adore Thee with all the powers of my soul.  Prostrate with the Angels in the most profound reverence, I love Thee, O my Saviour, Whom I now behold on the throne of Thy love!  O dread Majesty, O infinite Mercy!  Save me, forgive me!  Grant that I may never more be separated from Thee" (St. Basil).

 "We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors.... but they all have to learn to live in the same box."

 

Mother Teresa   -

 

How can you love God whom you do not see, if you don't love the neighbor whom you do see the neighbor you know and live with every day?

 

Meditations by Padre Pio - It is difficult to become Saints. Difficult but not impossible. The road to perfection is long, just as long as a lifetime. Consolation is rest along the way, but as soon as your strength is restored, you must get up diligently and continue the race.

 

 

Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

Ideas are knowledge

 

"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  -

August 15, 1937. During meditation, God's presence pervaded me keenly, and I was aware of the Virgin Mary's joy at the moment of her Assumption. Towards the end of the ceremony carried out in honor of the Mother of God, I saw the Virgin Mary, and She said to me, Oh, how very pleased I am with the homage of your love! And at that moment she covered all the sisters of our Congregation with her mantle. With her right hand, she clasped Mother General Michael to herself, and with her left hand she did so to me, while all the sisters were at her feet, covered with her mantle. Then the Mother of God said, Everyone who perseveres zealously till death in my Congregation will be spared the fire of purgatory, and I desire that each one distinguish herself by the following virtues: humility and meekness; chastity and love of God and neighbor; compassion and mercy. After these words, the whole Congregation disappeared from my sight, and I remained alone with the Most Holy Mother who instructed me about the will of God and how to apply it to my life, submitting completely to His most holy decrees. It is impossible for one to please God without obeying His holy will. My daughter, I strongly recommend that you faithfully fulfill all God's wishes, for that is most pleasing in His holy eyes. I very much desire that you distinguish yourself in this faithfulness in accomplishing God's will. Put the will of God before all sacrifices and holocausts. While the heavenly Mother was talking to me, a deep understanding of this will of God was entering my soul.       (1244)

  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.

Dec 30 - LET YOUR HEARTS CONTINUE TO BE HAPPY

 

Today Our Lady speaks of happiness and the retreat of Satan:

 

Dear children, this Christmas Satan especially wanted to spoil God's plans, but you, dear children, discerned Satan even on Christmas Day itself. But God is winning in all your hearts. So let your hearts continue to be happy (Weekly Message Dec 27, 1984).

 

St. Paul also speaks of joy and the defeat of Satan:

 

For while your obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, I want you to be wise in what is good and guileless in what is evil. The God of peace will shortly crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you (Rom 16:10-20).

 

Reflection:

 

Happiness, according to many philosophers, is a state of being that nobody recognizes while they are happy, but can recollect all too clearly when they are unhappy. But the happiness that St. Paul and Our Lady refer today is the inner joy that is born of God's love in our hearts. It is the fruit of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ based on total trust. It usually does not happen all at once, but by degrees. As our trust builds, so does our peace.

 

Application:

 

Reflect today on these lines from St. Thomas a Kempis:

 

But true glory and holy joy is to glory in Thee, O Lord, and not in one's self; to rejoice in thy name, and not to be delighted in one's own virtue, nor in any creature, save only for thy sake.

MESSAGE FROM MOTHER MARY December 28, 2007

7:10 AM

 

Son, I wish to take this opportunity to say something to my Sons and Daughters,

the Brothers and Sisters of my Son Jesus.

 

The Mother of your Lord is here once more as it has become my predilection to be

of help to my Son in winning more souls for the Kingdom.

 

My motherly heart reaches out to people of all faith, not only to those who have

recourse to me as the Mother of my Lord. Every soul is the Father's creation,

no one else. Each soul is sent to earth to inhabit bodies which has no equal in

its uniqueness as each soul is given by God a role to play in the earth life.

Souls incarnate on earth for a divine purpose. Life on earth is an education

process, a process which at the same time grants the soul his free will choice

in his journey to find the way back to the Creator. Whether to gravitate

towards the light or the darkness is a continuing dilemma in which every soul is

subjected to and depending on the individual choices, either the soul finds its

way back to the Kingdom or be lost along the way.

 

Each soul on earth is treated fairly. The seeming injustice manifested in

glaring poverty, very unlivable conditions, untold misery, these are all part of

the education process as well as byproducts of man's free will choice that

obviously gravitated out of the light. The free will choice exercised by the

first humans reverberated through the ages but the good news is that these are

all taken into account by the Almighty and in due time not too far away, will

institute measures that will correct this apparent life's inequity.

MESSAGE FROM JESUS

December 28, 2007

6:50 AM

 

Son let me speak through you!

My brothers and sisters of the world, it is my pleasure to commune with you.

 

More than two thousand years have passed since I left the earthly abode, body,

soul and spirit and have not yet fulfilled my promise to come back when I can be

seen as I am. I understand the deep yearning of those who eagerly watch for my

appearing, but while this physical manifestation is yet to happen according to

what is written, may I remind you my brothers and sisters that even if you

cannot see me at this point in time yet, I am to serve notice that I am present

in those who have a piece of heaven in their hearts. I have continuing

fellowship with those who can feel my subtle presence, so to them, I have

already come. It is my presence in their lives that makes no difference at all

whether I come to be seen by the eyes even in a thousand years from now or

perhaps today. To them, the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. When I come to be

physically seen, those who have me now in their hearts will not be caught by

surprise anymore. They will be the ones to sing with their hearts out

Allelujah in the highest Our Lord Has Come!

 

Peace on Earth and Goodwill to All Men!

Natural Disasters at Record Level in 2007

 

 

 

"Jesus left the temple and was going away, when his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the temple.  But he answered them, "You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down."  As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the close of the age?" And Jesus answered them, "Take heed that no one leads you astray.  For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and they will lead many astray.  And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not alarmed; for this must take place, but the end is not yet.  For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places: all this is but the beginning of the birth-pangs.  "Then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and put you to death; and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake.  And then many will fall away, and betray one another, and hate one another.  And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray.  And because wickedness is multiplied, most men's love will grow cold.  But he who endures to the end will be saved.  And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, as a testimony to all nations; and then the end will come.  "So when you see the desolating sacrilege spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; let him who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house; and let him who is in the field not turn back to take his mantle.  And alas for those who are with child and for those who give suck in those days!  Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a sabbath.  For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be.  And if those days haad not been shortened, no human being would be saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.  Then if any one says to you, 'Lo, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' do not believe it.  For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.  Lo, I have told you beforehand.  So, if they say to you, 'Lo, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out; if they say, 'Lo, he is in the inner rooms,' do not believe it.  For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of man.  Wherever the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together.  "Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken; then will appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory;  and he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.  "From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near.  So also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very gates.  Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away till all these things take place.  Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.  "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.  As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of man.   For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they did not know until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of man.  Then two men will be in the field; one is taken and one is left.  Two women will be grinding at the mill; one is taken and one is left.  Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.   But know this, that if the householder had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched and would not have let his house be broken into.  Therefore you also must be ready; for the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect.  "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time?  Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes will find so doing.  Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions.  But if that wicked servant says to himself, 'My master is delayed,' and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eats and drinks with the drunken, the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, and will punish him, and put him with the hypocrites; there men will weep and gnash their teeth."  (Cf. Mat 24)

Louise began to receive a message and said, "Jesus, cover me with Your Most Precious Blood."

 

Your God then spoke, "What I am doing with My hand combined with what man is doing with his weather machines (2) is causing more disasters than the earth has ever witnessed.  What you are now experiencing is only the beginning of the 'labor pains.'

 

Mother Nature will run rampant the world over. Very few will survive what is to come.  Land, sea and sky will act violently, Simultaneously  to destroy both sin AND sinners.

 

All will be for all must be purified before My Son reigns as Eucharistic King (3) which will prepare the way for His 'coming.'

 

Prepare the way for Jesus!  Repent!  Forgive!  Love all!  Pray!  Become poor in spirit!  Trust Me!  Exalt in the Lord for I alone am THE WAY --- THE ONLY WAY!

 

Watch and see the world change as the Mighty Purification begins.

 

AMEN, I, your God have spoken!"

Munich Re Says Losses From Natural Disasters to Rise

 

 

BLOOMBERG - December 27, 2007 --  Munich Re, the world's second-biggest reinsurer, said losses from natural catastrophes will rise because of climate changes, costing clients more for insurance premiums. ---

 

--- [Further, it stated]

The number of natural catastrophes this year rose to 950, the highest since Munich Re began keeping track in 1974. In 2007, one of the warmest years on record, the most costly catastrophe for insured losses was winter storm Kyrill, which battered Europe including Germany in January and caused $5.8 billion in damages.

 

Insured losses this year, however, remain well below the 2005 level of $99 billion when hurricanes such as Katrina and Rita made it the worst on record for natural catastrophes. No major hurricane has struck the U.S. during the hurricane season in the last two years.

 

Record rainfall in Britain caused floods in June and July and led to about $6 billion in insured losses. The most deadly disaster globally occurred in November in Bangladesh and India when Cyclone Sidr killed about 3,300 people, Munich Re said. ---

Message to Fr. Melvin Doucette December 29, 2007

 

Come and I will take you to Jesus, my Son

 

Reading: Luke 2:22-38

 

Dear friends,

 

Simeon said to our Blessed Mother in the temple, and you yourself a sword will pierce.Luke 2:35

 

My time of contemplative prayer this morning was spent with our Blessed Mother who said, Melvin, my son and Jesus' friend, I love you. I am interceding for all my sons and daughters, especially those who accept me as their Mother and have a devotion to me. I want you all to believe in my Son Jesus and be His disciples.

 

Soon after Jesus' birth, Joseph and I took the Child Jesus to Jerusalem to present Him to God in the Temple according to the law of the Jews. In the Temple that day there was a very old and holy man called Simeon who was waiting for the arrival of the Messiah into the world. He recognized the small infant as the Saviour and he was filled with joy as he held Him in his arms. At the end he turned to me, Jesus' Mother, and told me, ?and you yourself a sword will pierce. I did not know the full meaning of these words but I knew I would have much to suffer.

 

The full realization of Simeon's words came during the Passion and death of my dear Son. I met Him as He was carrying the cross along the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem and saw with my own eyes the suffering He had undergone. I was also present at Calvary as He hung upon the cross until death in terrible pain. It is there at the foot of the cross that Simeon?s prophecy was fully realized. I suffered martyrdom with Him as I stood there praying with Him for the salvation of all the people of the world. I knew that He had to suffer all this pain until death to pay the price for your sins.

 

Come and I will take you to Jesus, my Son, and your Saviour. Accept Him and believe in Him with all your heart. Repent and be His follower. I love you.

It is easy to love those who are far away. It isn't always easy to love those who are right next to us.
It is easier to offer a dish of rice to satisfy the hunger of a poor person, than to fill up the loneliness and suffering of someone lacking love in our own family.

Meditations by Padre Pio -

And yet, once our last hour has come, and our hearts have ceased to beat, everything will be finished for us and the time to merit as well as to demerit. We will present ourselves to Christ the Judge just as death finds us. Our cries of supplication, our tears, our sighs of repentance, which while still on earth would have won God's heart, could have made us with the help of the Sacraments, Saints out of sinners, today is worthless; the time of Mercy is passed, now begins the time of Justice.

 
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

Passion must have compassion
"To revive passion in hearts, one must first understand it. Passion signifies receiving or suffering something or submitting to something. From this, follow two indispensable conditions for passion: knowledge, and some organic or physical change in our sensible nature."

 

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

 August 15, 1937. Father Andrasz's instructions. "These times of dryness and stark awareness of one's wretchedness, which God has permitted, allow the soul to know how little it can do by itself. They will teach you how much you should appreciate God's graces. Secondly, faithfulness in all exercises and duties, faithfulness in everything, just as in times of joy. Thirdly, as regards the matters in question, be absolutely obedient to the Archbishop [Jalbrzykowski] although, from time to time, the matter can be brought to his attention, but peacefully. Sometimes, a little bitter truth is necessary."
At the end of the conversation, I asked the priest to allow me to commune with Jesus as I had done formerly. He answered, "I cannot give orders to the Lord Jesus, but if He Himself draws you to Himself you may follow the attraction. However, always remember to show Him great reverence, for the Lord is great indeed. If you are truly seeking God's will in all this and desire to fulfill it, you can be at peace; the Lord will not allow any sort of error. As to the mortifications and sufferings, you will give me an account next time of how you carry them out. Place yourself in the hands of the Most Holy Mother."       (1243)

During one time of prayer, I learned how pleasing to God was the soul of Father Andrasz. He is a true child of God. It is rare that divine sonship shines forth so clearly in a soul, and this because he has a special devotion to the Mother of God.       (1388)

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.

 
Dec 29 - A SHEPHERD'S HEART

During Christmas of 1983, Our Lady said to Jelena:

I desire that you be a flower which blossoms for Jesus at Christmas, a flower which continues to bloom after Christmas has passed. I so wish that your heart be a shepherd's heart, for Jesus (Locution Jelena & Mirjana 1983).

St. John speaks of the miracle of the Incarnation:

And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father's only son, full of grace and truth (Jn 1 :14).

Reflection:

The enduring love of Christ touches us in a special way during Christmas. At the same time it also inspires us to be shepherds after his own heart, a vocation to which the Mother of God also calls us. To have a shepherd's heart means to look around us, even search for, those in need. A story might illustrate:

Chad Varah was an Anglican priest. In 1953, he buried a girl of 18 who had killed herself. The coroner, at the inquest, suggested that she might not have done this desperate act if someone had been around who would have listened to her troubles.

Chad Varah decided to use his London church and a telephone to listen to people who were in despair. He put a small advertisement in the local paper, and during the first week he had 27 calls.

Soon he was listening and advising people twelve hours each day. There were so many people waiting in his outer office to see him that he asked some of his congregation to come and provide cups of tea for them.

Then he found that often people who had come into the outer office in great distress had become different people by the time they reached him, and some did not even wait to see him because of the helpers who had befriended the clients. That is how the Order of Samaritans was formed (Patrica Curley).

Application:

Let us answer the Madonna's call today by helping those who are needful in our own family and community - the aged, the handicapped, the bereaved. Ask Our Lady to point out to you the person(s) in need whom she wishes you to help.

 

Message From the Father Thru Lec - December 28, 2007


MESSAGE FROM THE FATHER December 28, 2007
6:40 AM

Son of my will hearken unto my words!

My power and glory transcends everything. There is no one in heaven and earth
and the entire universe who is like me. I am the God of Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob, the God of Noah and Enoch, the Father of my beloved Son Jesus.

I am the same billions of years ago, today and forevermore for I have no
beginning and no end, the Alpha and the Omega.

I do nothing without plan and purpose. Every word that issues forth from my
lips find its meaning and purpose in creation. Nothing escapes my eyes, even
things done in secret. I created man in my own image and likeness and to him
gave dominion over all the earth. But the first man and woman disobeyed me.
Paradise was lost.

I will restore Paradise. Man will again live in harmony with nature and nature
will cooperate to give man everything needed for life.
There will be no more wars. Peace on a renewed earth will reign.
People will be happy. They will live life to the fullest in an environment
where love and harmony reign supreme. I have created the future - a glorious
one.

Today is the day to prepare for it.

Concerning message of December 16 ,,to Louise..

Referring to the message from Jesus to Louise (please reread the msg. as He states it)
"At the Hour of My Birth there will be a great calamity"
Jesus did not mean on any certain day because He does not give any timeline in these words but simply states at the Hour of His Birth.

NOTE: Church mystics and powerful St. Andrew prayer have said that the Hour of Jesus' Birth was midnight. No one knows for sure of course.

 

Medjugorje Day X Day Dec 25 - CHRISTMAS DAY

 

Please keep us in your prayers and sufferings

"We can actually come and adore Him like the shepherds; we can prostrate ourselves before Him like the Magi; we need no longer regret our not having been present at Bethlehem" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).

     "This is the great reality of Christian history: Jesus, the sacred host, the Bread of life, in the midst of his Church.  This is that brightest star which enables us to look forward with great confidence to the future kingdom of Christ.  And as we bless and adore Jesus in the most holy Eucharist we wish to raise our hearts in trustful prayer to Mary, his sweet Mother, and our Mother too. 
    "So let us turn to her as our own dear Mother.  It is she who bore and presented to the world Jesus, our Redeemer and Saviour . . . .  We worship Jesus in the holy Eucharist: God with us!  God with us!" (Pope Bl. John XXIII).

 
December 25, 1986 (Christmas Day)
"Dear children! Today also I give thanks to the Lord for all that He is doing for me, especially for this gift that I am able to be with you also today. Dear children, these are the days in which the Father grants special graces to all who open their hearts. I bless you and I desire that you too, dear children, become alive to the graces and place everything at God's disposal so that He may be glorified through you. My heart carefully follows your progress. Thank you for having responded to my call."

"Is not the enraptured gaze of Mary as she contemplated the face of the newborn Christ and cradled Him in her arms that unparalleled model of love which should inspire us every time we receive Eucharistic communion?" (Pope John Paul II, Ecclesia de Eucharistia, 54).

 

When was the first all night vigil?

 

Mother Teresa  -

I think there is something that can make us live joyfully. It is that Jesus is with us and loves us. If each one of us would simply remember that God loves us and is giving us the chance to love others in that love not so much in big things but in the little things of life our countries could become full of God's love.

 

 Meditations by Padre Pio -

Live joyfully and courageously, at least in the upper part of the soul, amidst the trials in which the Lord places you. Live joyfully and courageously, I repeat, because the Angel who foretells the birth of our little Savior and Lord, announces singing, and sings announcing that he brings tidings of joy, peace and happiness to men of good-will. So that there is nobody who does not know that in order to receive this Child it is sufficient to be of good-will.
 

 Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
True Faith is not popular with the ego

"How many people there are in Church on Sunday sitting in the first seat of the pew, who resent anyone asking them to `please move over.' They came to kneel before a cross, but they do not want one standing along side them. How many there are too who sing lustily the hymn.

`Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were an offering far too small.'

And, then, when the collection box is passed, they drop in a nickel. The fact is religion is popular only when it ceases to be truly religious. Religion by its very nature is unpopular - certainly unpopular with the ego"

 

St. Faustina's diary

 

December 23, 1936. I am spending this time with the Mother of God and preparing myself for the solemn moment of the coming of the Lord Jesus. The Mother of God is instructing me in the interior life of the soul with Jesus, especially in Holy Communion. It is only in eternity that we shall know the great mystery effected in us by Holy Communion. O most precious moments of my life!       (840)
  

 
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. 

Dec 25 - CHRISTMAS DAY

On Christmas Day in 1989, Our Lady spoke of being a light for others:

Dear children, here is my Son in my arms! I would like to ask you to be a light for all in the year to come. I would like to call you again to live my messages, the message of peace, conversion, prayer, penance, and faith. Dear children, your Mother does not seek words from you, I ask for deeds. Your Mother will help you and she will give you the strength to persevere. And tonight I would like to tell you: Rejoice! (Visionary Prayer Group Dec 25, 1989).

And from Luke's gospel, the shepherds come to adore the Christ-child:

When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us".

So they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the child lying in the manger. When they saw this, they made known what had been told them about this child; and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them.

But Mary treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them (Lk 2:15-20).

Reflection:

Christmas is a season of light, the light of angels among shepherds, the light of a great star beckoning wise men, and in our own day, the multicolored lights of Christmas trees, outdoor decorations, and the bright glow from the windows of homes where families are gathered to celebrate.

Appropriately, today the Blessed Mother calls each of us to be, "a light for all in the year to come". Through living her messages, we have become changed people. The new peace and kindness in our lives attracts others who wish to share in these gifts of grace. In such a way, we have to become beacons of hope and joy drawing others to Christ.

Although our characters differ, and our personalities are unique, it is our many colors that form a harmony as Christmas lights on an evergreen. In the darkness, the glowing of the shinning lights is truly beautiful.

Application:

As Our Lady calls us to be a light for others by living her messages, let us pray for her special help today in doing just that.

“Our Father gives you everything”

 

Reading: John 1:1-18

 

Dear friends,

 

“And the Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us, and we saw His glory, the glory as of the Father’s only Son, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14

 

I spent a half-hour in contemplative prayer this morning and I was with Jesus, Our Lord and friend. He said, “Melvin, My brother, I love you. I bless all My friends, especially those who are suffering in any way. I am with you and I am giving you the graces you need every day. I want to live in your hearts and make My permanent home there. Open your heart to Me every day.

 

I give glory to My Father in heaven for the marvels of His wisdom. It was His will that I be born of My Blessed Mother Mary as a man. I came to live among you and those who were present were able to touch, to see and to hear the Son of God without any difficulty. The Father brought about this great mystery so that you would be redeemed from your sins and become the adopted children of the Father. I am the Father’s only Son and by being a member of My Mystical Body, you become also a son or daughter of the Father. When He looks at Me, the Father sees all those who are grafted in Me and they are all His adopted children whom He loves as He loves Me.

 

My friends, our Father gives you everything, including the gift of life. Every good thing comes from Him and He is very generous with His gifts. He is always there to protect you and He provides for all your needs. Thank Him for your friends and every member of your family. You are called to honour your Father and to worship Him with all your heart. His children are expected to live according to His commandments, which He gave to Moses on the mountain. He loves you with infinite love and He expects you to love all your friends and neighbours, even those who do not love you. Strive with the graces I give you to love the Father by living a life in conformity with His plan for you. I bless you and My Father blesses you too.”

Message to Fr. Melvin Doucette December 29, 2007

 

Come and I will take you to Jesus, my Son

 

Reading: Luke 2:22-38

 

Dear friends,

 

Simeon said to our Blessed Mother in the temple, and you yourself a sword will pierce.Luke 2:35

 

My time of contemplative prayer this morning was spent with our Blessed Mother who said, Melvin, my son and Jesus' friend, I love you. I am interceding for all my sons and daughters, especially those who accept me as their Mother and have a devotion to me. I want you all to believe in my Son Jesus and be His disciples.

 

Soon after Jesus' birth, Joseph and I took the Child Jesus to Jerusalem to present Him to God in the Temple according to the law of the Jews. In the Temple that day there was a very old and holy man called Simeon who was waiting for the arrival of the Messiah into the world. He recognized the small infant as the Saviour and he was filled with joy as he held Him in his arms. At the end he turned to me, Jesus' Mother, and told me, ?and you yourself a sword will pierce. I did not know the full meaning of these words but I knew I would have much to suffer.

 

The full realization of Simeon's words came during the Passion and death of my dear Son. I met Him as He was carrying the cross along the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem and saw with my own eyes the suffering He had undergone. I was also present at Calvary as He hung upon the cross until death in terrible pain. It is there at the foot of the cross that Simeon?s prophecy was fully realized. I suffered martyrdom with Him as I stood there praying with Him for the salvation of all the people of the world. I knew that He had to suffer all this pain until death to pay the price for your sins.

 

Come and I will take you to Jesus, my Son, and your Saviour. Accept Him and believe in Him with all your heart. Repent and be His follower. I love you.

 

Father Melvin

Mother Teresa -  

It is easy to love those who are far away. It isn't always easy to love those who are right next to us.
It is easier to offer a dish of rice to satisfy the hunger of a poor person, than to fill up the loneliness and suffering of someone lacking love in our own family.

Meditations by Padre Pio -

And yet, once our last hour has come, and our hearts have ceased to beat, everything will be finished for us and the time to merit as well as to demerit. We will present ourselves to Christ the Judge just as death finds us. Our cries of supplication, our tears, our sighs of repentance, which while still on earth would have won God's heart, could have made us with the help of the Sacraments, Saints out of sinners, today is worthless; the time of Mercy is passed, now begins the time of Justice.

Concerning message of December 16 ,,to Louise..

Referring to the message from Jesus to Louise (please reread the msg. as He states it)
"At the Hour of My Birth there will be a great calamity"
Jesus did not mean on any certain day because He does not give any timeline in these words but simply states at the Hour of His Birth.

NOTE: Church mystics and powerful St. Andrew prayer have said that the Hour of Jesus' Birth was midnight. No one knows for sure of course.

 

Medjugorje Day X Day Dec 25 - CHRISTMAS DAY

 

Please keep us in your prayers and sufferings

"We can actually come and adore Him like the shepherds; we can prostrate ourselves before Him like the Magi; we need no longer regret our not having been present at Bethlehem" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).

     "This is the great reality of Christian history: Jesus, the sacred host, the Bread of life, in the midst of his Church.  This is that brightest star which enables us to look forward with great confidence to the future kingdom of Christ.  And as we bless and adore Jesus in the most holy Eucharist we wish to raise our hearts in trustful prayer to Mary, his sweet Mother, and our Mother too. 
    "So let us turn to her as our own dear Mother.  It is she who bore and presented to the world Jesus, our Redeemer and Saviour . . . .  We worship Jesus in the holy Eucharist: God with us!  God with us!" (Pope Bl. John XXIII).

 
December 25, 1986 (Christmas Day)
"Dear children! Today also I give thanks to the Lord for all that He is doing for me, especially for this gift that I am able to be with you also today. Dear children, these are the days in which the Father grants special graces to all who open their hearts. I bless you and I desire that you too, dear children, become alive to the graces and place everything at God's disposal so that He may be glorified through you. My heart carefully follows your progress. Thank you for having responded to my call."

"Is not the enraptured gaze of Mary as she contemplated the face of the newborn Christ and cradled Him in her arms that unparalleled model of love which should inspire us every time we receive Eucharistic communion?" (Pope John Paul II, Ecclesia de Eucharistia, 54).

 

When was the first all night vigil?

 

Mother Teresa  -

I think there is something that can make us live joyfully. It is that Jesus is with us and loves us. If each one of us would simply remember that God loves us and is giving us the chance to love others in that love not so much in big things but in the little things of life our countries could become full of God's love.

 

 Meditations by Padre Pio -

Live joyfully and courageously, at least in the upper part of the soul, amidst the trials in which the Lord places you. Live joyfully and courageously, I repeat, because the Angel who foretells the birth of our little Savior and Lord, announces singing, and sings announcing that he brings tidings of joy, peace and happiness to men of good-will. So that there is nobody who does not know that in order to receive this Child it is sufficient to be of good-will.
 

 Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
True Faith is not popular with the ego

"How many people there are in Church on Sunday sitting in the first seat of the pew, who resent anyone asking them to `please move over.' They came to kneel before a cross, but they do not want one standing along side them. How many there are too who sing lustily the hymn.

`Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were an offering far too small.'

And, then, when the collection box is passed, they drop in a nickel. The fact is religion is popular only when it ceases to be truly religious. Religion by its very nature is unpopular - certainly unpopular with the ego"

 

St. Faustina's diary

 

December 23, 1936. I am spending this time with the Mother of God and preparing myself for the solemn moment of the coming of the Lord Jesus. The Mother of God is instructing me in the interior life of the soul with Jesus, especially in Holy Communion. It is only in eternity that we shall know the great mystery effected in us by Holy Communion. O most precious moments of my life!       (840)
  

 
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. 

Dec 25 - CHRISTMAS DAY

On Christmas Day in 1989, Our Lady spoke of being a light for others:

Dear children, here is my Son in my arms! I would like to ask you to be a light for all in the year to come. I would like to call you again to live my messages, the message of peace, conversion, prayer, penance, and faith. Dear children, your Mother does not seek words from you, I ask for deeds. Your Mother will help you and she will give you the strength to persevere. And tonight I would like to tell you: Rejoice! (Visionary Prayer Group Dec 25, 1989).

And from Luke's gospel, the shepherds come to adore the Christ-child:

When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us".

So they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the child lying in the manger. When they saw this, they made known what had been told them about this child; and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them.

But Mary treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them (Lk 2:15-20).

Reflection:

Christmas is a season of light, the light of angels among shepherds, the light of a great star beckoning wise men, and in our own day, the multicolored lights of Christmas trees, outdoor decorations, and the bright glow from the windows of homes where families are gathered to celebrate.

Appropriately, today the Blessed Mother calls each of us to be, "a light for all in the year to come". Through living her messages, we have become changed people. The new peace and kindness in our lives attracts others who wish to share in these gifts of grace. In such a way, we have to become beacons of hope and joy drawing others to Christ.

Although our characters differ, and our personalities are unique, it is our many colors that form a harmony as Christmas lights on an evergreen. In the darkness, the glowing of the shinning lights is truly beautiful.

Application:

As Our Lady calls us to be a light for others by living her messages, let us pray for her special help today in doing just that.

“Our Father gives you everything”

 

Reading: John 1:1-18

 

Dear friends,

 

“And the Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us, and we saw His glory, the glory as of the Father’s only Son, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14

 

I spent a half-hour in contemplative prayer this morning and I was with Jesus, Our Lord and friend. He said, “Melvin, My brother, I love you. I bless all My friends, especially those who are suffering in any way. I am with you and I am giving you the graces you need every day. I want to live in your hearts and make My permanent home there. Open your heart to Me every day.

 

I give glory to My Father in heaven for the marvels of His wisdom. It was His will that I be born of My Blessed Mother Mary as a man. I came to live among you and those who were present were able to touch, to see and to hear the Son of God without any difficulty. The Father brought about this great mystery so that you would be redeemed from your sins and become the adopted children of the Father. I am the Father’s only Son and by being a member of My Mystical Body, you become also a son or daughter of the Father. When He looks at Me, the Father sees all those who are grafted in Me and they are all His adopted children whom He loves as He loves Me.

 

My friends, our Father gives you everything, including the gift of life. Every good thing comes from Him and He is very generous with His gifts. He is always there to protect you and He provides for all your needs. Thank Him for your friends and every member of your family. You are called to honour your Father and to worship Him with all your heart. His children are expected to live according to His commandments, which He gave to Moses on the mountain. He loves you with infinite love and He expects you to love all your friends and neighbours, even those who do not love you. Strive with the graces I give you to love the Father by living a life in conformity with His plan for you. I bless you and My Father blesses you too.”

 

Father Melvin

Message to Fr. Melvin Doucette December 28, 2007

 

Be My hands and My feet

 

Reading: Matthew 26:31-46

 

Dear friends,

 

Let us praise and thank the Lord for bringing us again to the Christmas season, a time of joy at the birth of Our Lord and Redeemer.

 

I celebrated Holy Mass in the prayer room yesterday evening and I prayed for all the sick people I?ve been asked to pray for. I also prayed for the conversion of non-believers that they come to believe in Jesus and be renewed. I ask you all to continue to pray for these people as our Blessed Mother asked in her last visit to me. If many people pray and these people return to the Lord, the terrible disaster will be avoided.

 

As we are in the Christmas Season, the Friday messages will not be on the Passion of Our Lord.

 

I was with Jesus, Our Lord, this morning during my time of prayer. He said, Melvin, My brother and friend, I love you. I love with all My heart all My brothers and sisters living in all the countries of the world. Do not be afraid as I am with you and protecting you. I thank you for putting Me first in your life and living every day with Me. Let our partnership grow every day through prayer, reading the Bible, and in many charitable works.

 

There are many people, however, that are far from Me. Some are addicted to drugs and alcohol and they have made these their god. Now that they are addicted, it is difficult for them to leave these things behind. Their family and friends suffer much at seeing the state they are in. These often end up stealing from their loved ones in order to satisfy their craving. They need help in order to free themselves from this slavery. Get them to go to a Cenacolo for two years and they will be free. These communities are an inspiration from the Holy Spirit to bring these slaves back to life. Pray for these addicts that they may find these communities and remain there until they are free so they can start a new life with Me. It is only through hard work and prayer that they will be healed.

 

There are many today that are suffering in many ways. Some are sick in body while others are sick in spirit. These too need prayers and healing. Do not abandon these suffering members of your community, but pray for them and visit them. Remember when you visit a person who suffers, you are visiting Me for I have identified Myself with every person who is sick. My friends, be My hands and My feet for these people. I love you all and I bless you.

 

Father Melvin

Mother Teresa  -

 

Poverty comes into our homes to give us the chance to love. Here is where love finds its place.

Are we there, open and willing to offer support and affection?

 

Meditations by Padre Pio -

 

 The worldly, engulfed in their affairs, live in obscurity and error, nor do they try to learn about God, or give a thought to their eternal salvation, or try to find out about the coming of that longed-for Messiah Who was awaited by men and prophesied and predicted by the prophets.

 

 

 Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

 

Passion knows not the soul

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

 

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

 

 O Mary, today a terrible sword has pierced Your holy soul. Except for God, no one knows of Your suffering. Your soul does not break; it is brave, because it is with Jesus. Sweet Mother, unite my soul to Jesus, because it is only then that I will be able to endure all trials and tribulations, and only in union with Jesus will my little sacrifices be pleasing to God. Sweetest Mother, continue to teach me about the interior life. May the sword of suffering never break me. O pure Virgin, pour courage into my heart and guard it.       (915)

 

Since that time, I have been living under the virginal cloak of the Mother of God. She has been guarding me and instructing me. I am quite at peace, close to her Immaculate Heart. Because I am so weak and inexperienced, I nestle like a little child close to Her heart.       (1097)

 

May 1, 1937. Today I felt the nearness of my Mother, my heavenly Mother, although before every Holy Communion I earnestly ask the Mother of God to help me prepare my soul for the coming of Her Son, and I clearly feel Her protection over me. I entreat her to be so gracious as to enkindle in me the fire of God's love, such as burned in her own pure heart at the time of the Incarnation of the Word of God.       (1114)

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.

 

 Dec 28 - I AM PRESENTING YOU TO GOD

 

Our Lady's monthly message for Christmas, 1987:

 

Dear children, rejoice with me! My heart is rejoicing because of Jesus and today I want each one of you to open your hearts to Jesus and I will give him to you with love.

 

Dear children, I want him to change you, to teach you, and to protect you. Today I am praying in a special way for each one of you and I am presenting you to God so he will manifest himself in you.

 

I am calling you to sincere prayer with the heart so that every prayer of yours may be an encounter with God. In your work and in your everyday life put God in the first place.

 

I call you today with great seriousness to obey me and to do as I am calling you (Monthly Message Dec 25, 1987).

 

The Christmas narrative continues with the flight into Egypt:

 

Now after they had left, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Get up, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him".

 

Then Joseph got up, took the child and his mother by night, and went to Egypt, and remained their until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, "Out of Egypt I have called my son" (Mt 2:13-15).

 

Reflection:

 

Mary says to us today, "My heart is rejoicing because of Jesus and today I want to offer him to you".

 

Faced with the love of Christ and his Mother, we are inspired in turn to be loving and generous ourselves. To love is catching, especially in this holy season. One example:

 

A report from an elementary school near Chicago tells about a Christmas pageant held in the school. A third grader was the innkeeper. He had only one line to say; "Sorry. There is no room in the inn". But the little boy entered into the spirit of the play and said his part with real feeling. And then, as Mary and Joseph turned away to leave, the little fellow called out, "Come back, Joseph. I'll give you my room"! (Anonymous).

 

Application:

 

Like the little boy, allow yourself to be swept away by love during these days.

 

Message to Eileen Renders Dec. 27,2007

 

Thursday Adoration, December 27, 2007

 

 

Jesus Tells Us To Teach, Nourish and Share!

 

 

At adoration today I said an Act of Contrition, gave thanks to God and made small offerings to Jesus and Mary. I prayed for all my brothers and sisters with special needs and intentions.

 

In prayer I asked Jesus to please cover me with His most precious blood before saying, Speak Lord (if it be Your will), Your servant listens.

 

Jesus responded to my prayer saying, The sweetness of the fruit is dependent upon the health and nourishment of the vine.

 

These words from Jesus can be taken in several ways. Imagine that what we put into our children in part, is how they grow spiritually, emotionally and intellectually.

 

Also Jesus' message can be interpreted to mean that the time and energy that we devote to our spiritual life will become a reflection of our eternal reward.

 

Yet we need to be conscious that we give each task we do in work or with family the time and effort deserving a loved one as a measure of our own love and mercy.

 

 

 

Message From Jesus Thru Lec - December 27, 2007

 

MESSAGE FROM JESUS

December 27, 2007

6:35 AM

 

Son, please write for me.

 

My beloved brothers and sisters, let me have fellowship with you through my words. Your deep yearning to meet me in my Father's home is fully appreciated by your Redeemer. I read your hearts. As my first coming was announced by John the Baptist so does my coming again be announced by my Father's Archangels whose trumpet blasts will awaken in your soul the good news that your Savior is indeed coming.

 

The bridegroom ha s been delayed in appearing but this does not mean that this waiting will have to last forever. The Father's timing is perfect. He causes events to happen according to his flawless timetable and this my brothers and sisters is not a denial of your profound desire to be with me in my Father's house.

 

Prepare as if I am coming today but do not neglect your duty to love your neighbor as you love yourself for it is much better that you are enmeshed in doing the commandment to love in the service of others than idly waiting for my coming which I tell you will happen as if the thief comes in the middle of the night.

 

Be holy. Be righteous! Bear with one another. Avoid useless and time consuming debates. Love and understand one another. The truth will be unveiled to you in a spirit of love. Pray always.

Meditate on my words. These are the bright embers that will keep the light shining in your soul for the children of the light are my true brothers and sisters. Let not the darkness overcome the light.

 

The fight between the darkness and children of light will intensify.

Hold on to me. I am your shield and fortress whom no one can overcome. Victory against the archenemy is at hand. Your victory prize waits for you. Come into my rest. Share my happiness. Be patient. A little more time is what it takes.

 

Be glad. Be joyful always for your Savior cares for you.

Padre Pio's Christmas Meditation

 

http://members. aol.com/fmrega4/ PadrePioChristma s.htm

 

Appearing in volume four of the Italian-language edition of Padre Pio's letters, this essay was taken from Padre Pio's hand-written notebooks. To the best of my knowledge, it is presented here for the first time in English.

 

Translated by Frank M. Rega, December 2005.

 

"Padre Pio da Pietrelcina: Epistolario IV," Edizioni Padre Pio, San Giovanni Rotondo, 2002, pages 1007-1009.

 

 Far into the night, at the coldest time of the year, in a chilly grotto, more suitable for a flock of beasts than for humans, the promised Messiah – Jesus – the savior of mankind, comes into the world in the fullness of time.

 

There are none who clamor around him: only an ox and an ass lending their warmth to the newborn infant; with a humble woman, and a poor and tired man, in adoration beside him.

 

Nothing can be heard except the sobs and whimpers of the infant God. And by means of his crying and weeping he offers to the Divine justice the first ransom for our redemption.

 

He had been expected for forty centuries; with longing sighs the ancient Fathers had implored his arrival. The sacred scriptures clearly prophesy the time and the place of his birth, and yet the world is silent and no one seems aware of the great event.

 

Only some shepherds, who had been busy watching over their sheep in the meadows, come to visit him. Heavenly visitors had alerted them to the wondrous event, inviting them to approach his cave.

 

So plentiful, O Christians, are the lessons that shine forth from the grotto of Bethlehem! Oh how our hearts should be on fire with love for the one who with such tenderness was made flesh for our sakes!

 

Oh how we should burn with desire to lead the whole world to this lowly cave, refuge of the King of kings, greater than any worldly palace, because it is the throne and dwelling place of God! Let us ask this Divine child to clothe us with humility, because only by means of this virtue can we taste the fullness of this mystery of Divine tenderness.

 

Glittering were the palaces of the proud Hebrews. Yet, the light of the world did not appear in one of them. Ostentatious with worldly grandeur, swimming in gold and in delights, were the great ones of the Hebrew nation; filled with vain knowledge and pride were the priests of the sanctuary.

 

In opposition to the true meaning of Divine revelation, they awaited an officious savoir, who would come into the world with human renown and power.

 

But God, always ready to confound the wisdom of the world, shatters their plans. Contrary to the expectations of those lacking in Divine wisdom, he appears among us in the greatest abjection, renouncing even birth in St. Joseph’s humble home, denying himself a modest abode among relatives and friends in a city of Palestine.

 

Refused lodging among men, he seeks refuge and comfort among mere animals, choosing their habitation as the place of his birth, allowing their breath to give warmth to his tender body.

 

He permits simple and rustic shepherds to be the first to pay their respects to him, after he himself informed them, by means of his angels, of the wonderful mystery.

 

Oh wisdom and power of God, we are constrained to exclaim – enraptured along with your Apostle – how incomprehensible are your judgments and unsearchable your ways! Poverty, humility, abjection, contempt, all surround the Word made flesh.

But we, out of the darkness that envelops the incarnate Word, understand one thing, hear one voice, perceive one sublime truth: you have done everything out of love, you invite us to nothing else but love, speak of nothing except love, give us naught except proofs of love.

 

The heavenly babe suffers and cries in the crib so that for us suffering would be sweet, meritorious and accepted. He deprives himself of everything, in order that we may learn from him the renunciation of worldly goods and comforts.

 

He is satisfied with humble and poor adorers, to encourage us to love poverty, and to prefer the company of the little and simple rather than the great ones of the world.

 

This celestial child, all meekness and sweetness, wishes to impress in our hearts by his example these sublime virtues, so that from a world that is torn and devastated an era of peace and love may spring forth.

 

 Even from the moment of his birth he reveals to us our mission, which is to scorn that which the world loves and seeks.

 

Oh let us prostrate ourselves before the manger, and along with the great St. Jerome, who was enflamed with the love of the infant Jesus, let us offer him all our hearts without reserve.

 

Let us promise to follow the precepts which come to us from the grotto of Bethlehem, which teach us that everything here below is vanity of vanities, nothing but vanity.

Medjugorje Day X day Dec 27 - I WISH TO DEEPEN YOUR LOVE

 

Message of December 25, 2005 (Transmitted by Marija)

"Dear children! Also today, in my arms I bring you little Jesus, the King of Peace, to bless you with His peace. Little children, in a special way today I call you to be my carriers of peace in this peaceless world.

 

God will bless you. Little children, do not forget that I am your mother. I bless you all with a special blessing, with little Jesus in my arms. Thank you for having responded to my call."

 

 Message of December 25, 2005 (Transmitted by Jakov)

 "Dear children! Today, with Jesus in my arms, in a special way I call you to conversion. Children, through all this time which God permitted me to be with you, I continuously called you to conversion.

 

Many of your hearts remained closed. Little children, Jesus is peace, love and joy; therefore now decide for Jesus. Start to pray.

 

Pray to Him for the gift of conversion. Little children, only with Jesus can you have peace, joy and a heart filled with love. Little children, I love you. I am your mother and give you my motherly blessing.

 

"To each and everyone He comes as if He had never come before in His own sweet way, He the Child who is born . . .   Jesus the Savior, He Emmanuel, He, Christ as Christ's Mass on Christmas?Merry Christmas!!" (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen).

 

 

Mother Teresa  -

 

Let's concentrate on a worthwhile goal:

that no child be unwanted,

that no person go unloved.

And let's not stop smiling at whomever we meet, especially when it's hard to smile.

Jesus calls the poor and simple shepherds by means of angels to manifest Himself to them. He calls the learned men by means of their science. And all of them moved interiorly by grace hasten to adore Him.

 

He calls all of us with divine inspirations and He communicates Himself to us with His Grace. How many times has He not lovingly invited us also? And with what promptitude have we replied? My God I blush and am filled with confusion at having to reply to such a question.

 

 

 Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

 

Totalitarianism is the scapegoat of irresponsibility

"Perhaps it is the very burden of responsibility which flows from free choice that makes so many human beings ready to surrender their great gift of freedom.

 

This also explains the search for someone to whom they can commit their choice, who will do their thinking for them and relieve them of the awful burden of the consequences of their free decisions. This search for someone to whom neurotic minds can commit themselves explains the comparatively facile surrender of so many to totalitarianism in our day and age."

 

 

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

 

 Sister C.* came in the afternoon and took me home for the holy days. I was happy to be reunited with the community. As we were riding through the city [Cracow], I imagined it was the town of Bethlehem.

 

As I watched all those people hurrying about, I thought: who is meditating today, in recollection and silence, on this inconceivable mystery? O pure Virgin, You are traveling today, and so am I. I feel that today's journey has its symbolism. O radiant Virgin, pure as crystal, all immersed in God, I offer You my spiritual life; arrange everything that it may be pleasing to Your Son. O my Mother, how ardently I desire that You give me the Infant Jesus during the Midnight Mass.

 

And I felt such a living presence of God in the depths of my soul, that it was only by sheer will-power that I restrained my, joy in order not to show outwardly what was going on in my soul.       (844)

 

Mary, Immaculate Virgin, take me under your special protection and guard the purity of my soul, heart and body. You are the model and star of my life.       (874)

 

*Sister Cajetan-Mary Bartkowiak. Born January 19, 1911, she entered the Congregation in 1933. She was with Sister Faustina in Warsaw and in Cracow. She was a witness at the information process in 1965-66.

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.

 

Dec 27 - I WISH TO DEEPEN YOUR LOVE

 

In this Christmas season, Our Lady seeks to lead us further in love:

 

Dear children, I wish to thank all of you who have heeded my messages and who, on Christmas Day, have put into practice what I asked of you. Undefiled by sin from now on, I wish to deepen your love even further. And so, abandon your hearts to me! (Weekly Message Dec 26, 1985).

 

The story of the Magi speaks of love expressing itself in giving:

 

When they had heard the king, they set out; and there, ahead of them, went the star that they had seen at its rising, until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw that the star had stopped, they were overwhelmed with joy.

 

On entering the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother; and they knelt down and paid him homage. Then, opening their treasure chests, they offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh (Mt 2: 9-12).

 

Reflection:

 

As our readings illustrate today, Christmas is the great season of love and giving. The Magi, awed by the miracle of God coming into the world as a helpless infant, responded by offering him their most precious gifts.

 

This spirit of giving is captured in this passage from Frank O'Connor's, An Only Child:

 

One Christmas, Santa Claus brought me a toy engine. I took it with me to the convent, and played with it while mother and the nuns discussed old times. But it was a young nun who brought us in to see the crib.

 

When I saw the Holy Child in the manger, I was distressed because little as I had, he had nothing at all. For me it was fresh proof of the incompetence of Santa Claus.

 

I asked the young nun politely if the Holy Child didn't like toys, and she replied composedly enough, "Oh, he does, but his mother is too poor to afford them."

 

That settled it. My mother was poor too, but at Christmas she at least managed to buy me something even if it was only a box of crayons.

 

I distinctly remember getting into the crib and putting the engine between his outstretched arms. I probably showed him how to wind it as well, because a small baby like that would not be clever enough to know.

 

I remember too the tearful feeling of reckless generosity with which I left him there in the nightly darkness of the chapel, clutching my toy to his chest.

 

Application:

 

Today, simply reflect in prayer on the gifts you have received from the Lord. In what way can you share them?

 

Message to Fr. Melvin Doucette December 27, 2007

 

Our Father gives you everything

 

Reading: John 1:1-18

 

Dear friends,

 

And the Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us, and we saw His glory, the glory as of the Father's only Son, full of grace and truth. John 1:14

 

I spent a half-hour in contemplative prayer this morning and I was with Jesus, Our Lord and friend. He said, Melvin, My brother, I love you. I bless all My friends, especially those who are suffering in any way.

 

I am with you and I am giving you the graces you need every day. I want to live in your hearts and make My permanent home there. Open your heart to Me every day.

 

I give glory to My Father in heaven for the marvels of His wisdom. It was His will that I be born of My Blessed Mother Mary as a man.

 

I came to live among you and those who were present were able to touch, to see and to hear the Son of God without any difficulty. The Father brought about this great mystery so that you would be redeemed from your sins and become the adopted children of the Father.

 

I am the Father's only Son and by being a member of My Mystical Body, you become also a son or daughter of the Father. When He looks at Me, the Father sees all those who are grafted in Me and they are all His adopted children whom He loves as He loves Me.

 

My friends, our Father gives you everything, including the gift of life. Every good thing comes from Him and He is very generous with His gifts. He is always there to protect you and He provides for all your needs. Thank Him for your friends and every member of your family.

 

You are called to honour your Father and to worship Him with all your heart. His children are expected to live according to His commandments, which He gave to Moses on the mountain.

 

He loves you with infinite love and He expects you to love all your friends and neighbours, even those who do not love you. Strive with the graces I give you to love the Father by living a life in conformity with His plan for you. I bless you and My Father blesses you too.

 

Father Melvin

My children I love you. I call you to embrace holy poverty. Empty yourselves of
the world, its vanities and passing riches and pleasures.



Dear children open your hearts to the fullness of God’s love. Receive
the gifts, blessings and graces He desires to impart to you.



My children behold the Lord of lords, the child Jesus, who veiled His divinity
that you could approach Him without fear and trepidation, and gaze upon Him who
gave His life for love of you. You in turn are called through baptism to give
your life for love of others through your love for God to the glory of the Most
High God.



Glory to God in the Highest Heaven and peace on earth to all who love God.

Message to Fr. Melvin Doucette December 26, 2007
 
Listen to the angels sing
 
Reading: Luke 2:8-20
 
Dear friends,
 
Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them.
 
My time of prayer this morning was spent with Jesus, Our Lord, who said, Melvin, My brother and companion, I love you. I fill you all, My brothers and sisters, with peace and joy after all the wonderful celebrations in My honour that have taken place in all parts of the world. I blessed you all with My gifts.
 
After My birth in Bethlehem, the first ones who came to visit Me in the manger were the shepherds who took care of the sheep on the hills around the place I was born. The Father sent an angel to them to announce My birth and to invite them to come and visit Me. Then they saw a huge choir of angels singing with great joy. The shepherds got up right away and walked to Bethlehem to see the newborn child. They came and knelt down before Me and praised God for this marvelous night. They were the first ones to spread the news that the Messiah, the Saviour, was born.
 
During these days, I invite you all to come in spirit to Bethlehem to visit Me. I am the long-awaited Saviour born of Mary, My Mother, for the salvation of all the people of the world. Come and sing like the angels who glorified and praised God for My coming into the world. Come and adore like the shepherds who were filled with awe at seeing this divine child. Spend time in the stable with St. Joseph, My Blessed Mother and Me, an infant, lying on the hay in the manger. Listen to the angels sing and see the bright star over the place I was born.
 
Remember, My friends, that I came into this world out of love for each one of you. I came that you might have life, life in abundance. I love you and bless you.
 
Father Melvin

Message From the Father Thru Lec - December 26, 2007


MESSAGE FROM THE FATHER December 26, 2007
6:40 AM

Son, many things are happening right now which the world at large is not aware
of but which will manifest in due time a time which catches the great multitude
by a complete surprise. Read the signs of the times and remain not clueless on
what is soon to transpire.

Prayers of the faithful are still a balancing weight against the full
dispensation of justice but how many in the whole world do understand my
merciful ways that justice and mercy are being weighed in the balance. Do I
cause wars to take place in the world?
Is that not the evilness in men's heart that causes wars?

I can clearly see the future. I can intervene or not but what would impel me
to do so if so few in the world seek my merciful intervention? I have the power
to touch the hearts of men, even the most wicked of them all just to reconsider
the plan of going to war.


I said no more delay for I see the wariness that has overcome the resolve of
those who pray. Will I intervene if by these words of mine, people take heed
and tip the balance towards the extension of the period of mercy? That burden,
my sons and daughters of the world is now placed on your shoulders a light
burden should I say, for what it takes is just a little sacrifice of your time
to pray for mercy to tip the balance against justice.

Message of December 25, 2006

Merry Christmas to all.
Our Lady in 1996, Christmas day told us that, these are the days in which the Father grants special graces to all who open their hearts.

I pray that today, God blesses you all abundantly and that Our Lady wraps you all in her mantle of protection. That we all open our hearts to receive those special graces God wants to give us.

Here is our Message for Christmas day from Our Lady.

Message of December 25, 2007
"Dear children! With great joy I bring you the King of Peace for Him to bless you with His blessing. Adore Him and give time to the Creator for whom your heart yearns. Do not forget that you are passers-by on this earth and that things can give you small joys, while through my Son, eternal life is given to you. That is why I am with you, to lead you towards what your heart yearns for. Thank you for having responded to my call."
 
Jakov Colo Message of December 25, 2006

At the last daily apparition to Jakov Colo on September 12th, 1998, Our Lady told him that henceforth he would have one apparition a year, every December 25th, on Christmas Day.
This is also how it was this year. The apparition began at 2:29 pm and lasted 6 minutes.

Our Lady gave the following message:

"Dear children! Today, in a special way I call you to become open to God and for each of your hearts today to become a place of Jesus' birth. Little children, through all this time that God permits me to be with you, I desire to lead you to the joy of your life. Little children, the only true joy of your life is God. Therefore, dear children, do not seek joy in things of this earth but open your hearts and accept God. Little children, everything passes, only God remains in your heart. Thank you for having responded to my call."
 
Message of December 25, 2006
"Dear children! Also today I bring you the newborn Jesus in my arms. He who is the King of Heaven and earth, He is your peace. Little children, no one can give you peace as He who is the King of Peace. Therefore, adore Him in your hearts, choose Him and you will have joy in Him. He will bless you with His blessing of peace. Thank you for having responded to my call."

At the last daily apparition to Jakov Colo on September 12th, 1998, Our Lady told him that henceforth he would have one apparition a year, every December 25th, on Christmas Day. This is also how it was this year. The apparition began at 3:23 pm and lasted 6 minutes.
Our Lady gave the following message:
Today is a great day of joy and peace. Rejoice with me. Little children, in a special way, I call you to holiness in your families. I desire, little children, that each of your families be holy and that God's joy and peace, which God sends you today in a special way, may come to rule and dwell in your families. Little children, open your hearts today on this day of grace, decide for God and put Him in the first place in your family. I am your Mother. I love you and give you my Motherly Blessing.

Message of December 25, 2003
"Dear children! Also today, I bless you all with my Son Jesus in my arms and I carry Him, who is the King of Peace, to you, that He grant you His peace. I am with you and I love you all, little children. Thank you for having responded to my call."
 
"When we worship you in the form of bread . . . we always see you as an adult. But every year at Christmas, you reveal yourself to us as a child born in a crib. We stand in silent amazement  . . . In silent adoration we stand before the mystery, like Mary when the shepherd came and told her what they had seen  and heard: `She kept all these things, pondering them in her heart'" (Chiara Lubich).
-----
"The swaddling clothes of an infant hid the Son of God in Bethlehem, and the appearance of bread and wine hides the Reality of Christ" (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen).

Mother Teresa -  
When life is most demanding and you give cheerfully in spite of that, that is love at its best.

Meditations by Padre Pio -
From the time of His birth Jesus points out our mission, which is to despise what the world loves and seeks.
 
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
When we shirk responsibility we cannot shed our shackles

"People talk most about their health when they are sick, and most about liberty when they are in danger of losing it. Despite all the pleas for liberty, it must be remembered that every flight from responsibility is a flight from liberty and every denial of personal guilt is also a denial of freedom. Cabbages cannot do wrong, though they have heads; calculators cannot commit sin, though they can do many things which seem to emulate human thought."

St. Faustina's diary  http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html  -
 
 
Thank you, Eternal Love, for Your inconceivable kindness to me, that You would occupy Yourself directly with my sanctification. My daughter, let three virtues adorn you in a particular way: humility, purity of intention, and love. Do nothing beyond what I demand of you, and accept everything that My hand gives you. Strive for a life of recollection so that you can hear My voice, which is so soft that only recollected souls can hear it...      (1779)

O my Jesus, You know that there are times when I have neither lofty thoughts nor a soaring spirit. I bear with myself patiently and admit that that is just what I am, because all that is beautiful is a grace from God. And so I humble myself profoundly and cry out for Your help; and the grace of visitation is not slow in coming to the humble heart.       (1734)

Dec 26 - REJOICE WITH ME!

On Christmas in 1988, the Blessed Mother asked us to rejoice with her:

Dear children, I am calling you to peace. Live peace in your heart and in your surroundings, so that all may recognize the peace, which does not come from you, but from God. Little children, today is a great day. Rejoice with me! Celebrate the birth of Jesus with my peace, the peace with which I came as your Mother, Queen of Peace. Today I am giving you my special blessing. Carry it to every creature so that each one may have peace. (Monthly Message Dec 25, 1988)

And from Luke's gospel, the birth of the Messiah:

While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. And she gave birth to her firstborn and wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn (Lk 1:6-7).

I see Mary with the newborn son in her arms. A little baby, flushed, bustling with his little hands and kicking with his small feet: and crying with a thin trembling voice just like a newborn lamb. And he moves his small head that is so blond that it seems without any hair, a little round head that his mother holds in the hollow of her hand, while she looks at her baby and adores him weeping and smiling at the same time, and she bends down to kiss him not on his head, but on the center of his chest, where underneath there is his small heart beating for us?where one day there will be the Wound?

"Come, let us offer Jesus to the Father", says Mary. And she lifts her baby in her arms and says: "Here I am. On his behalf, O God, I speak these words to you: Here I am to do your will. And I, Mary, and my spouse, Joseph, with him. Here are your servants, O Lord. May your will always be done by us, in every hour, in every event, for your glory and your love".

Application:

Today, let us simply live the Gospa's message: "Rejoice with me! Celebrate the
birth of Jesus with my peace?"

Message from Mother Mary to Lec Dec. 26,2007

MESSAGE FROM MOTHER MARY December 26, 2007
7:00 AM

Son, your prayers have reached the throne of the Father.

Your earthly father is now a free man.  Your dream about your father, the priest's gentle persuasion to remember your loved ones who have already left, your friend's reminder to pray for the departed, specific on yesterday, your praying of the three Rosaries for the release of your father's soul and the three masses you offered for your father, these my son are not mere coincidences but may I definitely say  Divine Appointments.
How euphoric your father was when I with Saint Michael fetched him from the precipice   the last frontier between heaven and the place of expiation.  You will not know unless I tell you.
This is to further reinforce your resolve to help those who have gone ahead, for in their place of final purification they cannot help themselves but only through the time, effort, sacrifices and prayers offered on their behalf for their souls to obtain succor.

They would have stayed there for longer times without the loving intercession of devout people on earth for each and every unconfessed light sin have its corresponding penalty.

 Yes, it is true, my Son Jesus did pay with his blood sacrifice man's salvation and promises of the heavenly kingdom but this grace through faith is obtainable only when a person on his lifetime humbles himself, acknowledges each sin, repents and make a vow not to offend Jesus again.  Anything less than that merits the necessary stay in a place of purification for no one appears before the Father and have fellowship with my Son, the Angels and the Saints without a complete shedding of the stain in the soul brought about by sin.

Go in peace son and let others know of these my words.

Your Mother

To those whom I offered myself as a living sacrifice and who accepted my offer

I am delighted to say and wish to convey my happiness at the day reserved for my

Go in peace and tell people of my joy at their remembrance of my first coming

Will I find enough faith when I come again?

JESUS JUST JUDGE
December 25, 2007

Soon I AM is coming to every heart. Are you prepared? Is there LOVE in your
heart?


The long awaited events are about to happen. I ask again, are you prepared?
The LOVE I speak of is the HEART of MY MOTHER. Have you run to HER like good
children? Have you turned away from HER listening to your pride.

Soon every knee will bend to HER proclaiming that SHE is the MOTHER of GOD.
That SHE, MOST HOLY, is the MOTHER OF ALL MANKIND. Do not turn away from HER
HEART, but run to it as it is the sure path to ME.

Who will shield you from MY JUSTICE but HER who is the PERFECT REFLECTION of MY
LOVE and MERCY. HER HEART alone is the GATEWAY to ME. Do not turn away from
it. Allow MY MOTHER to protect and nourish you in these times.

Soon it will be all but impossible to enter HER HEART. THEN I WARN YOU MY
CHILDREN MY JUSTICE WILL FIND YOU!!!

These words will resound in your heart and soul, where is your MOTHER?

Why have you turned away from HER, SO HOLY, SO LOVING?
I will then JUDGE you JUSTLY. What PAIN you will experience!! Run to HER, LOVE
HER, SHE IS TRULY YOUR MOTHER.

“Rejoice that your Saviour has come”

Reading: Luke 2:1-20

Dear friends,

“Glory to God in the highest and on

earth peace to those on whom his

favour rests.”

 

My half-hour of prayer was spent this

morning with our Heavenly Father

who said, “Melvin, My son, I love you

and bless you. I love all My sons and

daughters throughout the world,

especially those who believe in My Son

Jesus and will celebrate the great feast

of His birth. I sent Him into the world

to live as a man and to be your

Saviour. He is the Messiah I had

foretold after the sin of your first

parents.

 

I had prepared the most perfect

woman to be the Mother of My Son.

She was prepared from her

conception to be the fitting Mother of

the Son of God. When the time was

right He was born in Bethlehem.

 

 

 

It was

with great joy that I sent the angels to

sing at His birth and I made a star

appear over the stable. This great

night is truly the central point of the

history of the human race. It was out

of love for every one of you, My

children, that I caused this divine

intervention among you by the birth of

the God-Man.

Because of the grave sin of your first

parents, heaven was closed to all of

you. You were all born in sin and only

a divine Saviour could open heaven for

you and wash away your sins by His

supreme sacrifice on the cross. It was

necessary, therefore, for the Messiah

to come to free you from your sins

and show you the way to heaven.

 

 

He

came as the light of the world to teach

you the truth, to establish His Church

and to call you to repentance of all

your sins. Today open your heart and

accept My Son Jesus by celebrating

His birth. Rejoice that your Saviour

has come and follow Him every day. I

bless you all.”

Father Melvin

P.S. I wish you all a Blessed Christmas

and thank you all for your cards and

gifts. The next message will be on

Message of December 25, 1998

"Dear children! In this Christmas joy I

desire to bless you with my blessing.

In a special way, little children, I give

you the blessing of little Jesus. May He

fill you with His peace. Today, little

children, you do not have peace and

yet you yearn for it. That is why, with

my Son Jesus, on this day I call you to

pray, pray, pray, because without

prayer you do not have joy or peace

or a future. Yearn for peace and seek

it, for God is true peace. Thank you

for having responded to my call."
 
"Who can sleep on the night that God

became man?"  "`And the Word

became
flesh.'

 

 

That truth became a reality in

the manger at Bethlehem. But it was

to be fulfilled in yet another form:

`Whoever eats my flesh and drinks

my blood, has eternal life.' The Savior,

who knows that we are human beings

and will remain human beings who

have to struggle daily with

weaknesses, comes to our assistance

in a truly divine manner. Just as the

human body is in need of daily bread,

so also does the divine life in us

require constant nourishment"  (St.

Teresa Benedicta—Edith Stein).

A Jewish lady named Mrs. Rosenberg

who many years ago was stranded

late one night at a fashionable resort -

one that did not admit Jews.

The desk clerk looked down at his

book and said, "Sorry, no room.  The

hotel is full."

The Jewish lady said, "But your sign

says that you have vacancies."

The desk clerk stammered and then

said curtly, "You know that we do not

admit Jews.  Now if you will try the

other side of town..."

Mrs. Rosenberg stiffened noticeable

and said, "I'll have you know I

converted to your religion."

The desk clerk said, "Oh, yeah, let me

give you a little test.  How was Jesus

born?"

Mrs. Rosenberg replied, "He was born

to a virgin named Mary in a little town

called Bethlehem."

"Very good," replied the hotel clerk.  

"Tell me more."

Mrs. Rosenberg replied, "He was born

in a manger."

"That's right," said the hotel clerk.  

"And why was he born in a manger?"

Mrs. Rosenberg said loudly, "Because

in the hotel they wouldn't give a

Jewish Lady a room for the night!"  

Mother Teresa  -

We should give thanks to God for

what He has done in us, with us, and

through us. We should thank Him for

using us to be His love and mercy.

Padre Pio - Don't let your zeal be

bitter, fussy, aggravating or a cause of

uneasiness, but let it be free from all

defects: Let it be sweet, benevolent,

gracious, peaceful and uplifting. Ah,

who cannot see the dear little Infant of

Bethlehem in the event for which we

are preparing? Who does not see His

incomparable love for souls? He

comes to die in order to save, and He

is so humble, sweet and lovable.
 Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
Crosses can be great blessings if we

allow them to be

"It is the trials imposed upon us by

others, such as their injustices, their

harsh words, their knife-in-the-back

attitudes, and their peevishness, that

gall us; yet these are counted as the

daily crosses of the man who would

be truly religious. Much of the

weariness of the spiritual life is due to

the constant necessity of bearing the

shortcomings of others, along with the

never-ending strife against our own

base inclinations. Then begins the task

of accepting such people as a cross,

and through our patience and

forgiveness, putting love where we do

not find it."

come to know the Lord. I would like

the fount of Your mercy gush forth

more abundantly, for humankind is

seriously ill and thus has more need

than ever of Your compassion. You

the more right we have to Your

mercy. You are a fount which makes

all creatures happy by Your infinite

mercy.       (793)

Dec 24 - THE VIGIL OF CHRISTMAS

On this vigil of Christmas, the Blessed

Mother calls us to glorify Jesus and his

Nativity:

Dear children, for Christmas my

invitation is that together we glorify

Jesus. I present him to you in a special

way on that day and my invitation to

you is that we glorify Jesus and his

nativity. Dear children, on that day

pray still more and think more about

Jesus (Weekly Message Dec 12,

1985).

And on this vigil in 1990:

Dear children, tonight your Mother

invites you to give her all your

problems.

My dear children, Rejoice! (Visionary

Prayer Group Message Dec 24, 1990).

The following is Matthew's passage on

the birth of Christ:

Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah

took place in this way. When his

mother Mary had been engaged to

Joseph, but before they lived together,

she was found to be with child from

the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph,

being a righteous man and unwilling to

expose her to public disgrace, planned

to dismiss her quietly. But just when

he had resolved to do this, an angel of

the Lord appeared to him in a dream

and said, "Joseph, son of David, do

not be afraid to take Mary as your

wife, for the child conceived in her is

from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a

son, and you are to name him Jesus,

for he will save his people from their

sins".

All this took place to fulfill what had

been spoken by the Lord through the

prophets: "Look, the virgin shall

conceive and bear a son, and they

shall name him Emmanuel", which

means, "God is with us". When Joseph

awoke from sleep, he did as the angel

of the Lord commanded him; he took

her as his wife, but had no marital

relations with her. She bore a son, and

he named him Jesus (Mt 1:18-25).

Reflection:

Tonight we celebrate the greatest

event of all time, the birth of the

Messiah, the divine God taking on

human flesh. For ages the Jewish

people had waited for him, and when

the miracle finally occurred, the first to

hear of it were not the nobility or

Temple hierarchy, but simple

shepherds. The birth was in a stable,

not a palace. Even at the beginning,

the Messiah came first to the humble,

the ordinary, the poor. And he still

comes to them, to all with hearts

humble enough to receive him.

Application:

Greet the Christ child with prayer and

love this evening. Give him your heart

as your gift.

“Rejoice that your Saviour has come”

Reading: Luke 2:1-20

Dear friends,

“Glory to God in the highest and on

earth peace to those on whom his

favour rests.”

 

My half-hour of prayer was spent this

morning with our Heavenly Father

who said, “Melvin, My son, I love you

and bless you. I love all My sons and

daughters throughout the world,

especially those who believe in My Son

Jesus and will celebrate the great feast

of His birth. I sent Him into the world

to live as a man and to be your

Saviour. He is the Messiah I had

foretold after the sin of your first

parents.

 

I had prepared the most perfect

woman to be the Mother of My Son.

She was prepared from her

conception to be the fitting Mother of

the Son of God. When the time was

right He was born in Bethlehem.

 

 

 

It was

with great joy that I sent the angels to

sing at His birth and I made a star

appear over the stable. This great

night is truly the central point of the

history of the human race. It was out

of love for every one of you, My

children, that I caused this divine

intervention among you by the birth of

the God-Man.

Because of the grave sin of your first

parents, heaven was closed to all of

you. You were all born in sin and only

a divine Saviour could open heaven for

you and wash away your sins by His

supreme sacrifice on the cross. It was

necessary, therefore, for the Messiah

to come to free you from your sins

and show you the way to heaven.

 

 

He

came as the light of the world to teach

you the truth, to establish His Church

and to call you to repentance of all

your sins. Today open your heart and

accept My Son Jesus by celebrating

His birth. Rejoice that your Saviour

has come and follow Him every day. I

bless you all.”

in the hotel they wouldn't give a

Jewish Lady a room for the night!"   
Mother Teresa  -

We should give thanks to God for

what He has done in us, with us, and

through us. We should thank Him for

using us to be His love and mercy.

Padre Pio - Don't let your zeal be

bitter, fussy, aggravating or a cause of

uneasiness, but let it be free from all

defects: Let it be sweet, benevolent,

gracious, peaceful and uplifting. Ah,

who cannot see the dear little Infant of

Bethlehem in the event for which we

are preparing? Who does not see His

incomparable love for souls? He

comes to die in order to save, and He

is so humble, sweet and lovable.
 Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
Crosses can be great blessings if we

allow them to be

"It is the trials imposed upon us by

others, such as their injustices, their

harsh words, their knife-in-the-back

attitudes, and their peevishness, that

gall us; yet these are counted as the

daily crosses of the man who would

be truly religious. Much of the

weariness of the spiritual life is due to

the constant necessity of bearing the

shortcomings of others, along with the

never-ending strife against our own

base inclinations. Then begins the task

of accepting such people as a cross,

and through our patience and

forgiveness, putting love where we do

not find it."

I am reliving these moments with Our

Lady. With great longing, I am waiting

for the Lord's coming. Great are my

desires. I desire that all humankind

come to know the Lord. I would like

to prepare all nations for the coming

of the Word Incarnate. O Jesus, make

the fount of Your mercy gush forth

more abundantly, for humankind is

seriously ill and thus has more need

than ever of Your compassion. You

are a bottomless sea of mercy for us

sinners; and the greater the misery,

the more right we have to Your

mercy. You are a fount which makes

all creatures happy by Your infinite

mercy.       (793)

During Holy Mass, the little Infant

Jesus brings joy to my soul. Often,

distance does not exist-I see a certain

priest who brings Him down. I am

awaiting Christmas with great

yearning; I am living in expectation

together with the Most Holy Mother.

December 23, 1936. I am spending

this time with the Mother of God and

preparing myself for the solemn

moment of the coming of the Lord

Jesus. The Mother of God is instructing

me in the interior life of the soul with

Jesus, especially in Holy Communion.

It is only in eternity that we shall know

the great mystery effected in us by

Holy Communion. O most precious

moments of my life!       (840)

Dec 24 - THE VIGIL OF CHRISTMAS

On this vigil of Christmas, the Blessed

Mother calls us to glorify Jesus and his

Nativity:

Dear children, for Christmas my

invitation is that together we glorify

Jesus. I present him to you in a special

way on that day and my invitation to

you is that we glorify Jesus and his

nativity. Dear children, on that day

pray still more and think more about

Jesus (Weekly Message Dec 12,

1985).

And on this vigil in 1990:

Dear children, tonight your Mother

invites you to give her all your

problems.

My dear children, Rejoice! (Visionary

Prayer Group Message Dec 24, 1990).

The following is Matthew's passage on

the birth of Christ:

Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah

took place in this way. When his

mother Mary had been engaged to

Joseph, but before they lived together,

she was found to be with child from

the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph,

being a righteous man and unwilling to

expose her to public disgrace, planned

to dismiss her quietly. But just when

he had resolved to do this, an angel of

the Lord appeared to him in a dream

and said, "Joseph, son of David, do

not be afraid to take Mary as your

wife, for the child conceived in her is

from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a

son, and you are to name him Jesus,

for he will save his people from their

sins".

All this took place to fulfill what had

been spoken by the Lord through the

prophets: "Look, the virgin shall

conceive and bear a son, and they

shall name him Emmanuel", which

means, "God is with us". When Joseph

awoke from sleep, he did as the angel

of the Lord commanded him; he took

her as his wife, but had no marital

relations with her. She bore a son, and

he named him Jesus (Mt 1:18-25).

Reflection:

Tonight we celebrate the greatest

event of all time, the birth of the

Messiah, the divine God taking on

human flesh. For ages the Jewish

people had waited for him, and when

the miracle finally occurred, the first to

hear of it were not the nobility or

Temple hierarchy, but simple

shepherds. The birth was in a stable,

not a palace. Even at the beginning,

the Messiah came first to the humble,

the ordinary, the poor. And he still

comes to them, to all with hearts

humble enough to receive him.

Application:

Greet the Christ child with prayer and

love this evening. Give him your heart

as your gift.

 Message to Carol Ameche Dec.21, 2007

Personal message to Carol Ameche, 12-21-07

"My dear one, thank you for staying to rest in My Presence and the power of My love for you. Your peace and obedience goes out to all the world as ripples of grace.  There is not a new word for you today so much as an encouragement for your obedience to My Father's wishes for your success and healing that you might be transformed into a more perfect vehicle of His mercy.

The world only suffers more and now, with the advent of new storms and cold, will be more vulnerable to the call to gratification within a world given over to self interest and self absorption. Do not be surprised when you see stories in the media about wild behavior and many tragic accidents. The season of buying incites a predisposition to frivolous behavior far beyond the means of those who do not pray, or live the quiet waiting for the advent of My Birth.

I am your Savior and King, the tiny Baby born in the freezing cold of a musty manger far from any welcome, save that of poor Shepherds and the songs of Angels. It was a story lived out by those, chosen before they were born, to be present at the Birth of the long awaited Messiah Who would serve the entire creation of the Father in obscurity and poverty until the right moment in the perfect plan of the world's Creator! My Mother and earthly father, Joseph, followed each unfolding event in a docile surrender to the cold and discomfort afforded them by the rejection of any offered comfort or help for the long awaited gift of the promised Savior of the world.

It was so difficult for My Mother, who only survived that surrender to the Father's
Will in the mode of handmaid of her Lord, as she waited in joyful hope for My arrival.
Dear Joseph was her comfort and instrument of hope, as he did everything possible to make that humble cave, strewn with straw and the smell of cattle and their droppings: all overcome and transformed into a fitting shelter for us by the Light of My birth, accompanied by the fragrance of Angelic presence and songs of praise and joy. It was a time of miracles and victory for us who accepted every aspect of My arrival through the prophesied vehicle of a Virgin Birth. All of Heaven watched in wonder and amazement at the Light of My Presence as a tiny Babe Who would overcome the darkness in that place with the glory given to Our Father God by the obedient 'yes' of a tiny handmaid of her Lord.

Listen, My children of the world who stop to celebrate My miraculous birth in joy and thanksgiving, with hearts bursting with gratitude for all that transpired in the midst of a simple stable filled with My newborn cries and radiant light, and Angel voices singing hossana in the highest and Peace, peace to the world found only in union with Me. Allow yourselves to be reborn in hope by My Birth and strengthened for the battle over all the forces of darkness that equal or surpass the evil of those times by the plans of Satan to remove all memory of Me from the earth now in an even colder, more hateful world. Rejoice, My children, for the victory has been won, and the Light of My Presence shines in your hearts forever. Be filled with the peace of this miraculous night and songs of Angels heralding the Messiah, the tiny Baby King." Carol Ameche

Christmas Blessings from my heart to all of yours who read the words of Heaven.

Heaven Speaks to Those Who Do Not Know Jesus
By "Anne," a Lay Apostle


We here present "Heaven Speaks to Those Who Do Not Know Jesus" as a special Christmas gift from Jesus to anyone you may know among family members, friends, fellow workers, or acquaintances who does not know the Lord, and to whom you could peacefully perform the salvific role of introducing them to their Savior.

The "Heaven Speaks" series constitutes locutions of Jesus which are transmitted through "Anne," a lay apostle who presently lives in Ireland, and who spreads these messages with the approval of her local Bishop, the Most Rev. Leo O'Reilly of the diocese of Kilmore, as well as in complete obedience to the Vatican Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, to whom all messages have been submitted.

It is my personal conviction that the locutions received by Anne are of supernatural origin and are in complete conformity with the norms for authentic private revelation as used by the Church and ecclesiastical commissions of investigation.

During this Christmas season, please prayerfully consider passing on this message of Jesus to anyone whom you believe may have an open heart.  What better Christmas present could be offered a friend or loved one than the inestimable gift of the God that so loves them that He became a baby for them, died on a cross for them, opened the gates of heaven for them, and now calls them personally to His Heart of Love and Mercy.

May each of you and your families experience an exceptionally grace-filled and joy-filled season of the Baby Jesus, our Incarnate Love.

I am Jesus. I am God. I am complete in Myself. I am present in your world and I am present in heaven. You see, I am omnipresent. Even if you wish to, you cannot remove yourself from My presence on earth. I created earth. You might say the earth belongs to Me. All in it, are also My creation. You, dear beloved one, were created by Me. Do I say that you belong to Me? I say it in another way. I say, I want you to belong to Me. I want to possess your heart. Why do I use the word heart when truly it is your soul that I seek? I use the word heart because people characterize the heart as the place where people hold the love they possess. If you have love, people say you have it in your heart. The heart is known as the source of love and the receptacle of love, so I, Jesus, tell you that I want to possess your heart. When it is all simplified, as it should be, I am saying that I want you to love Me. I love you. There is no problem there. I love you today and I will always love you. A difficulty we have is that you do not know Me. The only way for Me to teach you to love Me is for Me to reveal Myself to you, to allow you to know Me. For that reason, I come to you today. I reveal Myself to you through these words and through the graces attached to them. If you read these words and sit in silence, you will begin to know Me. If you begin to know Me, truly, you will begin to love Me. Forget anything that tempts you to move away from these words and graces. Rest. Be with Me. Allow Me to teach you about Me.

Jesus

In your world today, there are many claims of goodness. Some of these claims are true. Some of these claims are false. I, Jesus, am never present in lies. I do not rest in falseness. Truth has a pure feel to it and truth does not change. If you want to find truth, look back over time and see what claims of truth have persevered. What are the things that were true two thousand years ago? You will find them if you look to see what has persevered through the ages. Two thousand years ago, it was true that I came to bring salvation. Today, that is still true. I came then and I come today. I come for your salvation. I come so that you will be saved. I come so that where there is falseness, where you are being deceived, I will be present with My truth.

Two thousand years ago, there was evil in the world. Today, evil persists alongside good. Does this mean evil is good? Has truth changed? No. Just as truth never changes, so evil does not change. Evil simply changes its disguise. I, God have not changed My character. When you first know someone, you know a few things about them. As you get to know someone better, you learn more. Over time and with consistent interaction, you begin to know someone well and you can then say that you understand that person.

I want you to understand Me. I am truth. Truth is Me. To know Me, Jesus, you will have to know what is true and what is false. I will teach you this but it is not something that I can teach you all at once. Truth, in its great depth, must be absorbed gradually. For this reason, I invite you to keep company with Me. If you do, I will teach you all you need to know to distinguish between the truth in your world and the deceit in your world. I will teach you to separate good from evil at a glance. I am the great Teacher, the Divine Teacher. With Me comes the light necessary for instant tuition on any given topic. You may say, "Give it to me all at once God. If You are who You say, You can do that."

You are correct. I could do that, such is My power. But you, My friend, are not disposed to accept such an experience because My truth is all about love. Your little heart must be expanded first. We have to make room for all of this truth, which is filled with love. I want you to embark with Me on a journey. Walk with Me. Allow Me to draw you into your soul, into the mystical nature of yourself. Come to Me there so I can introduce you to the great truths about your family, the family of God. You will find such acceptance there. When you rest in My gaze in your soul, you will understand about love. You will, at the same time, understand about heaven, your ultimate home. I am calling to you now and I know that you hear Me. Come to Me. Stay with Me. Give Me the briefest chance to reveal Myself to you.

Jesus

As I draw you into the mystical nature of yourself, I draw you into My heart. My heart and your heart belong together. When you are with Me, you feel calm and accepted. You feel oneness with others because you experience community in your soul. If I am with each man as I am with you, then you are connected to each man through Me. Do you begin to understand the family of God? I love every man created. I have a good plan for every man created. This is My truth and, as you recall, I can never be where there is deceit. If I have a good agenda for every man created, and I have a good agenda for you, you are safe with Me and all mankind is safe with Me. Connected to Me, each man will serve his time on earth in mystical union with every other man and in mystical union with all of the saints in heaven. We are all connected. After this time of service, each man connected to Me comes home to Me and home to the family that loves him, awaits him, and welcomes him. There is no bad will on heaven's side. There is only acceptance and truth. I have such hope for you, My friend. All of your gifts originate in God and are an outgrowth of God's goodness. If you learn to understand Me, you will learn that I want to use your gifts to create harmony in your soul. When you use your gifts and energy for My purposes, you will benefit the whole world. It must be so because I have said it is so and I can speak only the truth. We are all connected. Would you like to benefit the world? Truly, you are capable of this and this is My plan for you. I have so much to give to you in terms of knowledge and wisdom. Teamed with Me, you will flourish and grow to heights you never dreamed possible. Rejoice, man. You are resting with God, the God of All. This God tells you today that you are loved and needed.

Jesus

Follow this path that springs up before you. Come to Me. Turn in My direction and I will reveal this path that I want you to take. You will feel lightness in your Spirit, a relief. You will feel calm. Inside there will quietly burst forth a bud of hope. This bud will blossom, have no fear. The hope you feel in your soul is nourished by the time you spend with Me, seeking truth. I will see to it all. I need the smallest, even the most tremulous willingness. You are hesitant to believe in Me. I know that. I understand everything that has gone before this moment in your life. Remember that I have all universal truth available to Me. In that respect, am I not a valuable person for you to know? Could you admit that I am possibly the most valuable person you could ever know? If you knew of someone on earth who had all truth about everything, who understood the purest facts and possessed the cleanest, most pristine vision of reality imaginable, would you not seek out this person's company? If you were wise, you would do so. If you were a man who desired truth, you would do so. If you were weary of lies and falseness, you would do so. My friend, if you seek truth, you must come with Me. If you seek acceptance, you must come to Me. If you want to be loved, you must rest in My heart because it is the only place where you will find the perfect security you crave. I am with you. I will never leave you. You could not escape My presence, even if you wanted to. You may as well get to know Me better so that you can decide whether you will reject Me or accept Me. This is the ultimate choice that will be yours. Just as you cannot escape My presence, you cannot escape this choice. It is yours. I want you to consider your options.

Jesus

My friend, this is between you and me. By "this" I refer to both this conversation and your ultimate decision of whether to accept Me or reject Me. When you are asked to make an important decision on earth, you consider your options. You take time and weigh both sides. Perhaps you waver between one course and another. I want you to consider both sides of this decision. If you accept Me, you will have entry into the most loving and secure family of all. If you accept Me, you will have security for the rest of your life in that I will lay out the course in front of you, guiding you, protecting you, and never leaving you. If you accept Me, you will come to heaven in triumph, bringing with you the great benefits that your cooperation secured for your family. You will walk in truth and in calm. Your life on earth will not suddenly become easy, but it will be filled with God's peace and God's grace.

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

I conclude with the greatest truth of all and that is that I do not force My children to choose Me. I do not force humanity to work for heaven. If I did, we would not have a family, but a master and his slaves. No. This is not for Me and this is not for you. The heavenly kingdom would not be the heavenly kingdom if it were not filled with willing and beloved children. Everyone in heaven works for each other in great joy. Everyone in heaven works for our family members on earth in great hope. As you read these words, there is great hope in heaven that you will choose Me, Jesus Christ, and embark upon the journey to truth. It is here for you. I have truth and I have a course laid out for you that will bring you to this destination.

I repeat the most important truth of all. I love you. I will take care of you. Choose Me and I will begin to reveal Myself to you. You will know peace, My friend.

You will know security. You will know joy for all eternity. This is your inheritance and I am your God. Allow nothing to divert you from the truth that I am Jesus Christ and I love you.

 I come today to announce Myself to you and to save you. Come. Trust Me. Be with Me. I will protect you.
