From Jo Ann Riggio, RN I Extend the Baptism of Truth to you. Please accept it and pass it on.
Dear friends and family,
I extend the Baptism of Truth to you with all of my heart and love. Please accept it. Let me expain:
Sept 14-16, 09 I went on a pilgrimage to Holy Love, Maranantha Springs in Elyria Ohio. I have been there many times before. (www.holylove.org) It is an Ecumenical apparition site where Our Lady appears to a visionary as well as Jesus and some of the saints.
During the apparition, Our Lady invited those present to accept the Baptism of Truth, which I did as I was present on the United Hearts Field at the time. An angel was given to those who accepted this Baptism of Truth to guard the Truth in their hearts. Therefore, I believe I received one.
The other day , I received messages from Holy Love regarding the Baptism of Truth via their website. There are two messages for September 18, 2009. (www.holylove.org). In the first message, Our Lady says, "Those who were here present can now extend this Baptism of Truth to others simply by desiring to do so in their own heart. It can be multiplied and proliferated by all who recieve it." .......
The second message is from Jesus, He says , " ....I want to help you understand that the Baptism of Truth which you received in the field of the United Hearts on the Feast of My Mother's Sorrows, can change the heart of the world if proliferated with zeal. Do so then with Holy Love in your hearts.".... So my dear friends and family, I , with love in my heart and all the zeal within me extend this Baptism of Truth to you. Please accept it and pass it on to those you know and love and ask them to do the same. Together, with Jesus and Mary, let us all change the heart of the world! AMEN!
With all my love,
Jo Ann Riggio, RN
PS: Please go to the website (www.holylove.org) for the complete messages of September 18, 2009. May you be blessed abundantly.

Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus."
"In this country, truth has become so compromised that people do not know truth from fiction. That is why I extended to everyone the Baptism of Truth on My Feast of Sorrows. Those who were here present* can now extend this Baptism of Truth to others by simply desiring to do so in their own heart. It can be multiplied and proliferated by all who receive it. The angels given to My children in the Field of the United Hearts on the night of the apparition will not be multiplied with each Baptism of Truth, but will continually guard the truth in the hearts of those who had received angels at the apparition that night."
"You will make this known."
* Blessed Mother is referring to those pilgrims present in the United Hearts Field at the time of Her apparition.
METAPHYSICAL PROPOSAL ON THE MODE OF USING HAWTHORN
FOR THE COMING PLAGUES…HAWTHORN
(QUESTION FOR DISCERNMENT- Is this swine flu ? H1n1? Sars? Bird flu? You do the prayerful research!)
As given by our BLESSED MOTHER MARYAM, August 5, 1880: "There will be a grave illness which human science will not be able to alleviate. This illness will attack firstly the heart, then the spirit, and at the same time, the tongue. It will be horrible.
The heat accompanying it will be a devouring fire insupportable and so intense that the members of the body affected will be red -- an unendurable fiery red. At the end of seven days this disease, sown like a seed in the field (incubation period) will spread everywhere rapidly and make great progress."
"My children, here is the ONLY remedy which could save you. You are familiar with the Hawthorn which grows practically in all hedges.
The leaves of the Hawthorn, not the wood, can arrest the progress of this disease."
"You will gather the leaves, not the wood. Even dry, they will keep their efficacy.
You will put them into boiling water and leave them there for 14 minutes, covering the receptacle so that the steam remains therein.
At the onset of this disease, one must use this remedy three times a day."
"This disease will produce a continual vomiting and nausea. If the remedy is taken too late, the part of the body affected will become black and in the black there will be seen a sort of pale, yellow streak."
NO ONE HAS TO BELIEVE ANYTHING! TEST. DISCERN THE SPIRIT!
A SLIGHT CHANGE FOR CHILDREN- 8 MINUTES)
Note: It is a tradition that the Hawthorn was the plant from which Pilate’s Roman soldiers wove the CROWN OF THORNS.

Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father
For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.
I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.
O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).
The Lord's Prayer
How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"
Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)
Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)
Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)
Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)
Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)
Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)
on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)
Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)
And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)
As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)
But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)
Amen. (So I hope. So be it).
Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa
Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.
Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.
Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

Second Message in Argentina
Dear Friends,
Jesus spoke to me this morning in prayer with these words:
Melvin, My brother, I love you. You are now in Cordoba, one of the oldest cities in South America. Here My Church has been present for centuries. Here too, My followers have to be awakened to take their rightful place in the world. They are not to be afraid to stand for the truth that is brought to you.
I ask you to put Me first in every country of the world. Let every decision and law be in conformity with the teachings I left you and I gave My Church. No followers of Mine would accept abortion or euthanasia or embryo stem research.
All this goes against the Commandments of God, especially the one that says: Thou shall not kill. My followers will accept that marriage is between a man and a woman. Homosexual unions are not to be accepted and My Church will never bless such unions. Those that have homosexual tendencies are to live a celibate life and they will be saved if they follow Me every day.
Do not be conformed to the thoughts of the world which in many cases is opposed to me. Those people prefer to live in sin rather than to live in union with Me. Only My way will lead you to heaven and I call you all to follow that way. I love you and I bless you.
Father Melvin
Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 07 - MAY TRUE PRAYER FILL YOUR HEARTS
"O My God, I ask of Thee this day a great favor: give me the Most Blessed Virgin Adoratrix as my own Mother; let me share in her grace, in that state of uninterrupted adoration in which she was during the whole time that she bore Thee in her chaste womb, that paradise of virtue and of love" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).
Bl. Elizabeth wrote, "When Our Lord was on earth, the Gospel says `a secret power went out from Him,' at His touch the sick recovered their health, the dead were restored to life. Well, He is still living! living in the tabernacle in His adorable Sacrament." "When you are close to the tabernacle in which love incarnate dwells, there is no distance."
Mother Teresa - Happiness can't be found without prayer.
Meditations by Padre Pio - You too, doctors, you came to the world as I did with a mission to accomplish. Take note: I speak to you of duties when everyone talks of rights… You have the mission of curing the sick, but if you do not bring love to the bedside of the patient, I do not think the medicine will be of much use…
Love cannot do without words. How can you express it if not with words that relieve the patient spiritually? Bring God to the patient. He will be worth more than any other cure.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Only God can mold a Mountain out of our molehill of insignificance
"In the face of Divine Wisdom, all that we have, or do, or know, is a gift of God, and is only an insignificant molehill compared to His Mountain of Knowledge. Well indeed then may those who enjoy any relative superiority ask with Paul: `What do you have that you haven't received? And if you've received it, why do you boast as if it were yours alone?' (1 Corinthians 4: 7)."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
Advice of the Rev. Dr. Sopocko.
Without humility, we cannot be pleasing to God. Practice the third degree of humility; that is, not only must one refrain from explaining and defending oneself when reproached with something, but one should rejoice at the humiliation.
If the things you are telling me really come from God, prepare your soul for great suffering. You will encounter disapproval and persecution. They will look upon you as a hysteric and an eccentric, but the Lord will lavish His graces upon you. True works of God always meet opposition and are marked by suffering. If God wants to accomplish something, sooner or later He will do so in spite of the difficulties. Your part, in the meantime, is to arm yourself with great patience. (270)
Once the Lord said to me, My Heart was moved by great mercy towards you, My dearest child, when I saw you torn to shreds because of the great pain you suffered in repenting for your sins. I see your love, so pure and true that I give you first place among the virgins. You are the honor and glory of My Passion. I see every abasement of your soul, and nothing escapes my attention. I lift up the humble even to my very throne, because I want it so. (282
Quote of the Day Those who perish, perish by their own negligence. -St. Ambrose
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.
Nov 7 - MAY TRUE PRAYER FILL YOUR HEARTS
The Blessed Mother speaks of prayer in the following message:
Dear children, today I call you to prayer with the heart, and not just through habit. Some come here but do not want to make progress in prayer. Therefore, as your Mother, I want to warn you: pray that true prayer may fill your hearts at every moment (Weekly Message May 2, 1985).
And from Psalm 141:
I call upon you, O Lord; come quickly to me; give ear to my voice when I call to you. Let my prayer be as incense before you, and the lifting up of my hands as an evening sacrifice. ---Psalm 141:1-2
Reflection:
Again Our Lady speaks of prayer with the heart and the tremendous grace it gives. Perhaps the highest form of this prayer is the "prayer of quiet" or "centering prayer," in which we experience God in the very depths of our being.
To experience this prayer, the following guidelines will be helpful:
A. Choose a place where you can be alone without distraction. Take a comfortable bodily position, close your eyes, and put everything out of your mind.
B. Physically relax and let all tensions leave you. Deep, deliberate breathing will aid this process. Let your total being, mind and body, arrive at a gentle silence.
C. Center all your attention on God and let a word or phrase form in your consciousness. You can use "Jesus," or "Jesus, have mercy," or "Come Holy Spirit," or whatever else will relate you to the Lord.
D. The word of phrase may be repeated often or interspersed with periods of complete silence. This is your way of reaching out for and receiving the Lord.
E. Your prayer should end slowly and quietly. You may wish to recite an Our Father or Hail Mary meditatively. On occasion the Lord may invite you to a deeper silence or listening and you will come to know the joy of his Spirit in fullest measure, even in ecstasy.
Application:
Practice the prayer of quiet within the next several days. For a fuller explanation, consult the books by Fr. Basil Pennington on centering prayer.
Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 06 - VENERATE THE HEART OF MY SON
"Let us take our place, dear brothers and sisters, at the school of the saints, who are the great interpreters of true Eucharistic piety. In them the theology of the Eucharist takes on all the splendour of a lived reality; it becomes `contagious' and, in a manner of speaking, it `warms our hearts'" (Pope John Paul II, Ecclesia de Eucharistia, 62).
"O Jesus of the Eucharist! O consecrated Host! O envied Monstrance! O blessed Ciborium, beloved of my heart! The Tabernacle is my Treasure and, far or near, my eyes never lose sight of it, for it contains the God of Love" (Concepcion Cabrera de Armida).
Mother Teresa - Souls of prayer are souls of great silence. We cannot put ourselves directly in the presence of God if we do not practice internal and external silence.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Reflect on what you write, because the Lord will ask you to account for it. Be careful, journalist! May the Lord grant you the satisfactions you desire in your career.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen - You can judge pride by the positioning of a book
"Notice how often today authors will have their picture taken with their book in their left hand, the title in full view of the camera, so that the photograph may tell the story: `Look, Ma! My Book!' Television commentators have books on their desks with the title toward the audience so that the audience may be impressed.
No one who reads books at a desk ever has the titles turned away - but toward himself. Perhaps some day when there are diaphonous walls, the intelligentsia will keep the titles on there bookshelves turned toward the wall so their next door neighbor will know how smart they are."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - I want to hide myself so that no creature might know my heart. Jesus, You alone know my heart and possess it whole and entire. No one knows our secret. We understand each other mutually with one look. From the moment we came to know each other I have been happy. Your greatness is my fullness.
O Jesus, when I am in the last place, lower than the postulants, even the youngest of them, then I feel that I am in my proper place. I did not know that the Lord had put so much happiness in these drab little corners. Now I understand that even in prison there can burst forth from a pure heart the fullness of love for You, O Lord!
External things mean nothing to pure love; it cuts through them all. Neither prison doors nor the gates of heaven are strong enough to stop it. It reaches God himself, and nothing can quench it. It knows no obstacles; it is free like a queen and has free access to all places. Death itself must bow its head before it.... (201)
I will thank the Lord Jesus for every humiliation and will pray specially for the person who has given me the chance to be humiliated. I will immolate myself for the benefit of souls, I will not count the cost of any sacrifice, I will cast myself beneath the feet of the sisters, like a carpet on which they can not only tread, but also wipe their feet. My place is under the feet of the sisters. I will make every effort to obtain that place unnoticed by others. It is enough that God sees this. (243)
Quote of the Day What, on the other hand, was the lot of the Pharisee? Here was a man praying, fasting and doing many good works, and in spite of all that he was censured by God. Why was this? Simply because he prided himself on his good works, and took satisfaction out of them as though they were of his own doing.
Here we see a just man lacking humility and declared evil, and a sinner, conscious of his guilt and moved to a real sense of humility, justified because of his lowliness of heart. -St Vincent de Paul
MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
NOV 6 - VENERATE THE HEART OF MY SON
Today Our Lady speaks of reparation to the heart of her Son :
Dear children, this evening I pray that you especially venerate the heart of my Son, Jesus. Make reparation for the wounds inflicted on my Son's sacred heart, for it is offended by all kinds of sin (Weekly Message April 5, 1984).
And from John's gospel, the scene on Calvary :
But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. Instead one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once blood and water came out (Jn 19 :33-34).
Reflection:
Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is associated with St. Margaret Mary Alacoque (1647-1690) to whom Our Lord appeared a number of times during her life as a nun in the Visitation Order. Christ charged her with instituting the feast of the Sacred Heart and to spread its devotion throughout the world. Reparation through prayer and sacrifice was also to be made to the Heart of Jesus for the many sins that had offended it.
As Our Lady asks today, let us make reparation to Christ's heart using the following Prayer of Reparation :
Lord Jesus Christ, we look at the cross and we, your pilgrim church, can see what sin has done to the Son of Mary, to the Son of God.
But now you are risen and glorified. You suffer no more in the flesh. The scourging, the crown of thorns, your death on the cross have now passed. But you suffer greatly through your Sacred Heart and through your Mystical Body, the universal church, which still feels the agony of sin.

Message of our Lord and our Mother given at The White Cross on 15th May 2008, Seville, Spain, to Rosario Arenillas. This Message took place in The Sanctuary of The Immaculate Heart.
Our Lord:"........even My Voice trembles, My brothers, when it is apparent to all, even My Voice trembles when I have this evidence of so much LOVE within each one of you without distinction, and to love you with this LOVE that is a fire that consumes My Heart, telling you:
Do all for the good of a great recompense for My Mother, be just and do not stretch the laws, but rather consider the path of My Mother and feel assured of what you are doing, because My Mother came to Earth by mandate of MY FATHER to tell all men: I wish you to have one voice, and this voice will be the echo of the soul to call My Mother as She deserves.
My Mother is Mother IMMACULATE, the Mother of all men, She Who weeps, She Who kneels before My FATHER imploring Him that the injustices of men may no longer consume the Earth, that men will become more conscious of all he does during his passage [through life], that he should act with a clear conscience, without sullying the affection of My Mother, because the Way of My Mother will be the Bridge by which all have to pass to come to Me.
Do not treat My Mother with pathetic words, treat My Mother as the Road to your LIGHT, where all is illuminated by Her, She will not let you fall, for She cares even for the air which you breathe, She sees no defect in your face, She only calls you to have a conscience and faith, because where there is conscience there is also confidence, and the Words of My Mother do not confuse men,
Her Words enrich you and tell you:What a wondrous gift My Son has brought to the Earth, a gift that cannot be measured by men,[though] each measure it, each one by his own lights, without understanding that they trample upon the laws of My FATHER, each taking justice into his own hands, and each one heaping more [injustices himself], without realising that there is a reason for it, a reason of great importance, because I Who Am LOVE cannot hurt any brother.
Perhaps the Divine Justice of My FATHER may need to touch some of you and say: Why have you not tended to the wounds of your brother and cured him? Why have you pressed against his deepest wound and injured him without flinching? Why have you asked so many times, repeating the same words, putting My Name in jeopardy and the Name of My Mother together with Mine?
You are not a game for Me, neither do I care to be a game for you, this game that men play committing so many injustices, twisting words for his own ends, you are in error, do you not understand that you will reap all that you sow? Because you are part of the natural world and all that you sow in this world.....
You are the world which My FATHER wished to save from the beginning of time and He yearns to tell you: Do not sow that which cannot sustain you, because hatred and anger do not serve for sustenance, look only for the good seed and care for and nurture it, and the giving of the good seed will awaken you and you will understand that you are responsible for all that which My Mother and I have pleaded with you for. But you continue to sow bitterness in the Earth until one day you will miss the taste of the good seed and you will be unable to find it and neither My Mother nor I will be there to stretch out a hand to you.
For this I ask, as Representative and Saviour of the Earth, imploring men with this infinite LOVE that the FATHER gave [Me] as a gift for mankind, asking each of you: If you wake, take consciousness of that to which you have awoken, but if you have awoken to make yourselves greater than others, I would say to this misguided world:
The world is not the world that My FATHER desires, it is not a just world, it is a world that wickedly squanders wealth to inflict harm and injury on so many brothers. Man lays such great value on his wealth that he inflicts devastation day and night, it is a dangerous, voracious greed, engraved on their heads because they have allowed themselves to be led by the voice of the beast and the voice of the beast has seduced you with so many things that are not necessary [for life], he has only engraved status and extravagance and this profligacy has contaminated your hands and your hands have been filled with material wealth to destroy everything.
For this I wish you to look at your hands and as My FATHER implored you from the beginning, those hands which you should think of as the TEN COMMANDMENTS, do not use them to inflict hurt and injury, rather that you should look and say:
If these ten commandments have been given to me, I need to wake up to them and ask myself: now that I go to pray, I go to ask that I be not blind, but see, I shall ask of that which I do not see but that my soul may listen to Him Who calls me and touches me, Who is presenting me with something so wondrous.
(Various Messages were given to devotees at the Sacred Place and then continued.....)
For this, I implore each one of you that you be noble and simple, that you would know how to understand the significance of My WORDS, for I did not come to Earth to make a show among you, I came to Earth to tell mankind, enough! It is enough injustice, enough errors!
Who is the man who can take the stick in his hand and strike his brother and then later come with tears in his eyes and ask pardon? For why would he ask pardon, when only just before he has injured his brother and then abandoned him? This is the wickedness that is taking place at this time on Earth, these men who say "Lord! Lord!"--Why should they think My FATHER will hear them?
My FATHER will listen to those whom I send to Him from among that which I can accept from men. But men of this present age seem not to understand that he is committing so many sacrileges, so many, so many, so many, that when he arrives at the last part of his journey, because he is on a continuous journey, if he has no road the way hastens to the trampoline[over the edge] where all will fall, where one day you will look down and see so many brothers who have lost the strength of their soul, they behave as one who has no sense, like one who uses a sword and they are drunk in their own blood and the blood of their brothers, because not only do they drink the blood of that which compels them, but they have not asked their conscience if it is better to have that which one receives or that which one has taken, men without scruples, for this My children, be aware all of you of all that will happen.
I came not to tell you that your glory is on Earth, on Earth there is no glory,My childen, it is the way men have arranged it, they have made your passage on Earth become the hardest route, the most difficult for men to pass through in order to obtain some measure of what My FATHER wanted you to have from the beginning of time.
For this My children, you must be humble and simple, very humble and simple. In this manner I turn to this handful of men who tremble, as the trees on the mountains, where they are chastised by those who shake them, defile them.
Do not let yourselves be defiled, shake off the dirt that is falling on this Sacred Place where there are so few to clean it for the security and the witness you constantly must give, knowing when to keep quiet and sow walking the road very slowly always asking: If my tools that have been given to me are not the same as those of my brother, some will have value and something will be shown to me, so I shall continue on my way and I shall be conscious of that which I plough.
Because I know that one day, you will be in the presence of everyone, and who will have an answer? To whom will I need to say: you did not use your tools properly, you dug too deep and wasted your time, there are times when you have to reap and collect the seed, because it is the season to reap and a time to lay up the harvest, but you squander the harvest, there will come a time when you will wish you had kept the seed, held on to it, and you will desire to have kept it, then you will see and understand the value and the lack will weigh heavy upon you because neither My Mother nor I shall be there, because you have abandoned that which My FATHER chose with such LOVE which He put before men and said:
Between so few men, perhaps fewer than be counted on the fingers of one hand, will be your saviours, they are the ones who watch and wait until the Leader of the Tajo (Prophesied Saviour) comes to the Places where My Mother and I are, sent by My FATHER, having wished to speak with mankind and mankind has been unable to understand Me, if only you knew what is signified by the Leader of the Tajo, you would dread each day so much that you would not even get your head off your pillow for want of thinking : what is going to happen?.
But perhaps mankind is wasting time, just as birds do, when the harvest is gathered into the barns and the barns are closed up, for if you lose the key there will be no seed for you, at present the barns are open and you have the key, because the key are the Words of My Mother and Mine, which you can make use of at the present time, to give witness, even though it is insignificant, even though others may not understand, but at this time where you are preaching, even though you may not be understood, at least you are sowing and all that you sow may be reborn, and I tell you, all mankind:
My Words give new birth and My Words feed men, but man is committing such grave errors and injustices that they do not see how far their manifestation can reach. At present you have the tray, the tray which is filled with goods of the beneficence of My FATHER, these goods are a document, the Words of My Mother and Mine are a document that mankind fails to comprehend because man has wished to use it for his own account and stamp it with his own seal, to appropriate that which is not his, because the Words of My FATHER are pearls of ivory that should be respected and loved and even though at present there is no one on the face of the Earth who has been able to discover the importance of the Words of My FATHER, because before them mankind trembles, but men look for a mistaken liberty, he does not look for the freedom from My FATHER, the freedom of open Hands, the liberty that never demands, that is never frustrated, a freedom given with an open hand extended to you that says: All that I have is yours, given to you unconditionally.
If you take Me by the hand to learn that which you need to learn, without seeing, only by knowing inside of yourself what made you tremble in your whole body and in the depths of your heart, which has blossomed, surged forth like a spring with such speed, like a gust of wind that you hear, that sweeps all in front of its path, because it is the Voice of My Mother, the wind that carries all before it to awaken man.
How is it you do not wake? How? By the voice of men, but what signifies the voice of man when he has a testament in Sacred History, but man does not comprehend the significance of the Sacred, how will he respect the significance of what he has not seen?
If you do not respect what you see, what you don't see you wish to explain in a way to destroy the WORD. For this I ask so many men of the Earth: the day that many responsible men understand the significance of the WORD, they will tremble as will tremble part of humanity and then you will ask yourselves, why have we not arrived in time, why have we listened to only wrong words, those words of violence, words of hate, of bitterness and pain?
Because this has been the manner by which man has considered his path without understanding where he is going. So that in This Place, is the synagogue where they will come to My Mother and I to discover so many things that at so many times I have implored you to do.
Who has hidden the sceptre together with Sacred History? Why did you hide it with such hatred? Why cannot the king of the impossible, Joseph, come to be a creator and saviour of humanity? why? why? Because he was a carpenter who taught Me.
If I had no infancy it was because the world would not permit it, I became a Man and I was taught by the Will of My FATHER to find Myself like the homeless, those who were naked and without shoes, of those whom I implored so many times.
Never, never, never will you forget the day that you have spent in the service of your brothers, you yourself will use it on yourself, because your repentance will be the most anguished, the most immense work upon Earth, for this I ask each one of you: Never do, howsoever it were, that which you see, but listen to your conscience and open the door and give yourselves into the arms of My Mother and do not give yourself willingly to that voice without purpose that only comes to destroy so many souls, the world created by My FATHER will be erased from The Holy Face of the Earth and will convert the Earth into his throne, but I shall never permit it, because the throne of the world are yourselves, you will be My brothers because I have nothing and I want nothing.
You are a throne, you are the throne where one day I shall sit and I am The FATHER, the heir that wishes to inherit nothing other than only clean and set the throne of My brothers away from the anger of that man who goes around confusing the WORD[sowing confusion], for that brothers and friends there will be so many things that need to be said, one day you will see, because you will have your eyes opened and one eye will see the dirt and degradation and such catastrophe.
Perhaps, if you understand Me correctly I shall be in that Place, how is it that you ask have I come to the Earth for the wise? I came to the Earth for the humble, for those who have been disinherited from the goodness of My FATHER, but those who use the goods of My FATHER in their own way, will one day realize the sacrilege they commit. I come for those who do not understand because they have never had an opportunity to know the meaning of the goods of My FATHER.
The goods of My FATHER are not lost in the pockets of men, they are within souls, intending to open the door and waiting to come into your presence, so that all can understand the significance of spiritual goods that flow to each of you.
For that have no fear, for that which I have to raise up, if you all do your part, a monument will be raised up to be scaled and I can make it the throne to seat Myself before you and tell you: Blessed are they who never passed by but who helped and were always asking, how can I take into account so many things that showed me all was a passing moment, nothing more?
Because it will be a moment of clarity, when you will see all the doors, which for so long were opened to illuminate those disinherited brothers of Mine, disinherited of all those things which the world hid from them, as the world only wished for them the road of perdition, the path that leads to the cliff where they would lose their horizon, lose their way to Me. So today, allow Me to offer this flower of tenderness, nothing more, to be shared among you.
I want all to come to Me because I wish to say to you: You have to understand that there is only one WORD and that WORD is the unity and the unity is to follow the FAITH. Thank you for such tenderness, thank you, thank you My son, thank you, because life also is made for the noble and upright ones, because they are more wise than the men who hurl themselves to look for food, though that food is that which I give each day, the food that you do not comprehend. They are content with so very little, but you who have it all, how can you walk on the road where men are disinherited?
How can you think that I can have differences among you if I love you with everything I have? I have not come to separate men; I come to unite men, to say to mankind: Stretch out your hand to one another, do not convert yourselves like those men who think they will never be My heirs.
You are My heirs, these are difficult times where you will suffer much, because the CROSS is falling, breaking up, being destroyed in the path of men, because man lacks understanding, he does not comprehend, but I promise you this, that this union is to tell you: build up the CROSS, do not abandon It, he that thinks that his own CROSS is too heavy, be valiant, be brave and ask himself:
I will not permit anyone to judge me by his own standard, only I will treat each the same, as each deserves, each will I measure in the same manner and not one single seed will be lost, nothing will be left wanting. All will stay for My struggle.
For this My children, My Blessing is for everyone. So, My children, I should like to be your Teacher and you My faithful pupils and that you would all learn the same phrases and all would see what is revealed to him, that you should carry the grace of this knowledge with you always, because I shall be there where I wish you to be and that it doesn't matter about all the blemishes man has placed on you, if you have been capable of following the Will of My FATHER.
For this My children, I as your Saviour the PEACE of the Lamb most humble and meek, will surrender Myself among you all so that you will be those small lambs that no shepherd on Earth can divide, that you will be the shepherds and all will walk giving yourselves up to the same path guided by the same rudder, bathing in the same waters and all walking in the same boat. This boat will be the Voice of My FATHER for My childen at all times. All these flowers I give, I wish them to be shared out, all of them, all of them.
All of you are responsible, all of you, for the very little that you may give, even if it be little there will be returned to you an immense ocean, because all of you have a duty to carry out a mission which you can scarcely comprehend."
Our Blessed Mother: "Even though these moments are very small that you dedicate to My Name or the Name of My Son wherever you may be, and remember to recall to mind My daughter, it is an immensity for My Son, because you will save many souls, because this Place will never be understood by heartless cruel men, because this Place is a Place of silence, of learning and patience, so that men can never make the mistake of making a show, because this Place is not a show place, it is a Place to enrich your mind and for your spiritual advantage, that falls on you like pearls, even though you do not feel this rain of LOVE."
Our Blessed Lord: "Each time that My Mother and I are present Here, it is like rain that falls upon you. My Blessings in the Name of My Holy Mother, in the Name of the FATHER and of the HOLY GHOST, this Blessing is for all of you!".

THE T.R.U.S.T. PRAYER GROUP OF SHELTON, CT October 13, 2009. Tuesday evening 7:00 p.m. Tonight we prayed The Litanys
Towards the middle of the 4th decade, Our Blessed Mother has appeared as Our Lady Of Fatima
Michael said: I bow down only to Jesus Christ
Blessed Mother replied: YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR MY SON JESUS CHRIST LOVES AND PROTECTS YOU.
- now over the picture of The Sacred Heart, St. Padre-Pio has appeared and he is celebrating mass.
-and now on the-wall I see a very LARGE BROWN CROSS -and now on the bottom I see a very LARGE BROWN ANCHOR (The Anchor signifies hope’)
-and now I see The Holy Spirit as The DOVE’ on the-wall and It’s coming from the-wall- and is going around the room, and It’s going through ‘ everyone ‘s heart.
And The Holy Spirit wants everyone to know: It’s going through everyone’s heart who’s listening on the Radio Internet.
And now once againI see
"OUR LADY OF FATIMA" MY DEAR DEAR CHILDREN WHEN YOU THINK, THAT THIS IS THE WORST THEN IT ONLY GETS WORSE. UNFORTUNATELY THINGS WILL BE GETTING WORSE BEFORE THEY CAN GET BETTER. AND THAT IS DUE TO MISTAKES. MISTAKES FROM ALL THE LEADERS AROUND THE WORLD. AND YES IT STARTS IN THE UNITED STATES.
REMEMBER YOUR PRESIDENT HAD SAID: THAT HE WILL PULL TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ BUT DID HE MENTION THAT HE WOULD SEND TROOPS INTO AFGHANISTAN? AND NOW HE MAY BE SENDING ANOTHER 13,000 SOLDIERS TO AFGHANISTAN.
THERE ARE DIFFERENT WAYS TO STOP WAR. TO STOP THE TERRORISTS BUT NO ONE WANTS TO LOOK AT THAT WAY AND I WILL NOT REVEAL HOW. WHAT ARE THE NEXT STEPS? SENDING TROOPS TO PAKISTAN? AS PAKISTAN IS GETTING FILLED WITH MILITANTS AND TERRORISTS.
NORTH KOREA FIRES, FIRES MISSILES AND NO ONE DOES ANYTHING ABOUT IT, THEY ARE TESTING TO SEE, SENDING OFF THESE MISSILES. WILL THE UNITED STATES PUT A THREAT TO NORTH KOREA? NO IT’S LIKE THE UNITED STATES IS BITING HER TONGUE. THAT IS WHY THEY KNOW THAT THEY MUST STOP NORTH KOREA, IRAN, SYRIAWHICH SOON YOU WILL HEAR.
MY DEAR DEAR CHILDREN
PRAY, PRAY THAT THEY LEARN HOW TO HAVE PEACE IN THE WORLD PRAY THAT THEY SETTLE THINGS WITHOUT KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE.
MY DEAR DEAR CHILDREN
PEACE SEEMS SO, SO FAR AWAY.
MY DEAR DEAR CHILDREN
PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR POPE BENEDICT THE XVI AND HIS SPECIAL INTENTIONS, PRAY FOR YOUR PRIESTS YOUR CHURCHES.
ALSO THIS AFTERNOON MY SON YOUR MESSENGER MICHAELHAS BEEN QUESTIONED ABOUT WHAT I HAVE SAID ABOUT RECEIVING ON THE TONGUE TO THE HAND. YOU HAVE THE FREE WILL TO RECEIVE AS YOU WISH AND I HAVE SAID: THAT DURING THIS TIME OF THE SWINE FLU WHICH IS CALLED H1N1 THAT I ASK YOU TO RECEIVE ON THE HAND ONLY FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION.
MANY OF YOU THINK WELL DON’T WE PROTECT YOU ESPECIALLY RECEIVING THE BODY OF MY SON JESUS CHRIST? WE ALSO GIVE YOU THE FREE WILL TO DO AS YOU WISH. BUT YOU ALSO MUST HELP YOURSELF TOO.
A PRIEST GIVING COMMUNION ON THE TONGUE CAN ACCIDENTALLY TOUCH ONE TONGUE AND PASS IT, THE SALIVA TO ANOTHER TONGUE. AND WITH THE H1N1 FLU WHY TAKE CHANCES. ALSO RECEIVING THE BODY OF MY SON JESUS CHRIST IS ENOUGH FOR NOW AND TO AVOID THE CUP OF HIS BLOOD TILL THE SWINE FLU IS UNDER CONTROL.
MY DEAR, DEAR CHILDREN I LOVE YOU ALL SO VERY, VERY MUCH
AND I BLESS YOU ALL IN THE NAME OF OUR FATHER MY SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT AMEN.

Message received in Argentina (1)
Dear Friends,
Jesus spoke to me this morning in prayer with these words:
Melvin, My brother, I called you to Argentina to do some work for Me. You have come to a country where I have many dear friends and I bless them all.
However, here in Argentina, it is not all well. There is a group that are opposed to Me, opposed to My friends and opposed to My Church. They would like to wipe out My Church. They are also part of the government.
I want the members of My Church to wake up and stand in large numbers for Me. I want them to declare to all that I am their King and the Head of the country. They should declare their loyalty to Me and accept to follow all the commandments of God and to live a good moral life.
Abortions must be outlawed in My country and in all countries of the world. It is an abomination to your Lord and King. All are to know and accept that human life begins at conception and all are to respect this life until natural death. Euthanasia is also an abomination and it offends the Father, the Creator of life.
Come under My reign and live in peace. I want every country in the world to begin this New Reign of Mine. I call you all to live as My people in the world.â€
Father Melvin
Monthly message to Medjugorje seer Mirjana Soldo, 11/2/06:
"Dear children, my coming to you, my children, is God's love. God is sending me to warn you and to show you the right way. Do not shut your eyes before the truth, my children. Your time is a short time. Do not permit delusions to begin to rule over you. The way on which I desire to lead you is the way of peace and love.
This is the way which leads to my Son, your God. Give me your hearts that I may put my Son in them and make my apostles of you -- apostles of peace and love. Thank you!"
Reported guide Miki Musa quotes Mirjana as saying: "Afterwards, in conclusion, Our Lady said for us not to forget our shepherds in our prayers."
"Jesus seems continually to exclaim from the altar: Come to me, all you who work hard and who carry heavy burdens and I will refresh you (Matthew 11:28).
Come, He says, come you who are poor; come, you who are infirm; come, you who are afflicted; come, you who are just and you who are sinners, and you shall find in me a remedy for all your losses and afflictions. This is the desire of Jesus Christ: to console every person who calls upon Him" (St. Alphonsus Liguori).
Mother Teresa - Would that we could be so convinced of this necessity of silence! I think then the road to close union with God would become very clear.
Meditations by Padre Pio - Always and in everything let there be more uprightness of intention, more exactitude, more punctuality, more generosity in serving the Lord and then you will be as the Lord wants you.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen - To him who has been given much, much will be expected
"Scripture bids us to be wise and `correctly interpret the word of truth' (2 Timothy 2: 15). Humility moderates our estimate of what we know and will remind us that God gave to the wise more talents than others and more opportunities for developing those talents. But of him who has received much, much also will be expected. The intellectual leader has a tremendous responsibility thrust upon him and woe to him if he uses his office of teaching to lead the young into error and conceit."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Today we are beginning the third probation. All three of us met at Mother Margaret's, as the other sisters were having their probation in the novitiate. Mother Margaret began with a prayer, explained to us what the third probation consists of, and then spoke on how great is the grace of the perpetual vows.
Suddenly I began to cry out loud. In an instant all God's graces appeared before the eyes of my soul, and I saw myself so wretched and ungrateful toward God. The sisters began to rebuke me, saying, "Why did she break out crying?"
But Mother Margaret came to my defense, saying that she was not surprised. At the end of the hour, I went before the Blessed Sacrament and, like the greatest and most miserable of wretches, I begged for His mercy that He might heal and purify my poor soul.
Then I heard these words, My daughter, all your miseries have been consumed in the flame of My love, like a little twig thrown into a roaring fire. By humbling yourself in this way, you draw upon yourself and upon other souls an entire sea of My mercy. I answered, "Jesus, mold my poor heart according to Your divine delight. " (178)
Holy Hour. During this hour, I tried to meditate on the Lord's Passion. But my soul was filled with joy, and suddenly I saw the Child Jesus. But His majesty penetrated me to such an extent that I said, "Jesus, You are so little, and yet I know that You are my Creator and Lord." And Jesus answered me, I am, and I keep company with you as a child to teach you humility and simplicity.
I gathered all my sufferings and difficulties into a bouquet for Jesus for the day of our perpetual betrothal. Nothing was difficult for me, when I remembered it was for my Betrothed as proof of my love for Him. (184)
Quote of the Day Remember that Jesus Christ, referring to the humility of the publican, said that his prayer was heard. If this was said of a man whose life was evil, what may we not hope for if we are really humble? -St. Vincent de Paul
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.
Nov 5 - THOSE IN HELL
In the early months of the apparitions, the Blessed Mother gave this message on hell :
Today many persons go to hell. God allows his children to suffer in hell due to the fact that they have committed grave, unpardonable sins. Those in hell no longer have a chance to know a better lot (First Years July 25, 1982).
And from the Book of Revelation :
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, the murders, the fornicators, the sorcerers, the idolaters, and all liars, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death (Rev 21 :8).
Reflection:
Pope John Paul I used to teach about heaven and hell through the story of a Korean general. He died, was judged, and assigned to paradise. But when he came up before St. Peter he thought of something he would like to do. He wanted to peep into hell for a moment, just to have an idea of it. " Right you are, " said St. Peter.
So the general peeped in at the door of hell and saw an enormous banquet hall. In it were a number of long tables with bowls of rice and delicacies on them, will flavored, smelling delicious, inviting. The guests were sitting there hungrily, opposite one another, each with a plate of food.
What was happening? The guests all had chopsticks which they had to use but these were so long that, however hard they tried, not a grain of rice could they get into their mouths. And this was their torment, this was hell. " I've seen it, that's more than enough for me, " said the general and went back to the gates of heaven, where he went in.
Inside, he saw the same banquet hall, the same tables, the same food, and the same long chopsticks. But the guests were cheerful, all of them smiling and laughing. Each one, having put the food onto his chopsticks, held it out to the mouth of his companion opposite, and so they managed to eat there fill.
" Thinking of others instead of oneself, " the Pope said, " had solved the problem and transformed hell into heaven.
Application :
A verse for reflection today : " Hell is in heaven and heaven is in hell. But angels see only the light, and devils only the darkness " (Kacob Boehme).
Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 04 - OPEN YOUR HEARTS
"The perpetual adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament is an angelic service, an act of sublime faith and ardent love, a signal act of reparation to the Divine Heart of Jesus, a support for the Church Militant, a cause of special delight for the Church Triumphant and a source of indescribable relief for the members of the Church Suffering in Purgatory.
It is not surprising, therefore, that the grace of an attraction toward the Holy Eucharist is considered one of the greatest graces God can bestow upon a soul." (The Blessed Sacrament: God With Us)
"May I ever find in His adorable Sacrament the same ardent wish, the same fervent desire to be for eternity united with Jesus" (St. Elizabeth Ann Seton).
Mother Teresa - Silence gives us a new outlook on everything. We need silence to be able to touch souls. The essential thing is not what we say but what God says to us and through us. Jesus is always waiting for us in silence. In that silence, He will listen to us; there He will speak to our soul, and there we will hear His voice.
Padre Pio - In order to aim at perfection it is necessary to do everything possible to please God, to try to avoid even the smallest fault, and to do everything else with more generosity.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Too many politicians can't be trusted because they lack humility
"Our modern world has produced a generation of rich politicians who talk love of the poor, but never prove it in action, and a brood of the poor whose hearts are filled with envy for the rich and covetousness of their money. The rich who are humble help rather than use the poor to pave their way to power."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - And again, I would like to say three words to the soul that is determined to strive for sanctity and to derive fruit; that is to say, benefit from confession.
First word-complete sincerity and openness. Even the holiest and wisest confessor cannot forcibly pour into the soul what he desires if it is not sincere and open. An insincere, secretive soul risks great dangers in the spiritual life, and even the Lord Jesus Himself does not give Himself to such a soul on a higher level, because He knows it would derive no benefit from these special graces.
Second word-humility. A soul does not benefit as it should from the sacrament of confession if it is not humble. Pride keeps it in darkness. The soul neither knows how, nor is it willing, to probe with precision the depths of its own misery. It puts on a mask and avoids everything that might bring it recovery.
Third word-obedience. A disobedient soul will win no victory, even if the Lord Jesus himself, in person, were to hear its confession. The most experienced confessor will be of no help whatsoever to such a soul. The disobedient soul exposes itself to great misfortunes; it will make no progress toward perfection, nor will it succeed in the spiritual life. God lavishes His graces most generously upon the soul, but it must be an obedient soul. (113)
Quote of the Day Certainly nothing can so effectually humble us before the mercy of God as the multitude of his benefits. Nor can anything so much humble us before His justices as the enormity of our innumerable offences. Let us consider what He has done for us and what we have done against Him. -St. Francis de Sales

Today the Madonna asks that we follow the lead of her Son :
Dear children, open your hearts and let Jesus guide you. To many people this seems to be hard, but is really so easy! You need not be afraid for you know that Jesus will never leave you and you know that he leads you to salvation (Locutionist Jelena & Mirijana August 11,1986).
In John's gospel, we are also called to follow the Shepherd :
The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep hear his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice (Jn 10 :3-4).
Reflection:
When in Florence every visitor seeks out Michelangelo's statue of David, the shepherd lad. It is a masterpiece in marble. It stands nine feet high, alert with all the wonderful expensiveness of artistic genius. The statue has a history that is remarkable and splendidly suggestive of today's readings.
A 100 years or more before the time of Michelangelo, a magnificent block of Carrara marble was brought to Florence by an now unknown sculptor. He worked on it, blocking out the figure which was in his mind, but suddenly bungled his work by cutting a great slice out of the side, which made it useless to him, and so it was cast aside.
There it lay for a century until the trained eye of Michelangelo rested on it. Immediately he caught the possibility that lay in the stone, and soon it was taking on form under his hand. Outlining and fashioning, carving and chiseling, a majestic figure was soon seen stepping from the marble, and even the mutilation which had rendered it useless to the original workman became part of the majesty of the new design.
" Open your hearts, " the Virgin says today, " and let Jesus guide you. " Like marble in the hands of a sculptor, we will be formed into his very image, regardless of our former sins and flaws.
Application :
Simply open your heart to Christ today, asking the he fashion it into the image of his own.

Message from Our Lady of Light
My dear son,
I come to you today with a great stirring in my heart for the people of the world, for it is a sad time for all of humanity on this very important feast day in the Church of my Son, the Saviour and Lord, Jesus Christ.
We are now in the times when the followers of my Son are going through great struggles, pains, and sacrifices because of all the sins of the world throughout all times that have been committed by my children in defiance of the Father in Heaven and His love and divine guidance for all of you.
I have great empathy for my children for I know how difficult it is living in this world in these times of greed and corruption. It is a time now when it seems that the gates of Heaven are very far and distant from all of you, but I must assure you, my faithful ones, that the difficult times that you are going through will soon come to pass.
So I ask of you to keep focused on the goal that is your mission in life to do the best that you can do now, for the gates of Heaven are attainable for those who listen to my messages and those who do the bidding of my Son.
I recognize that you are all going through difficult times now and that your problems in life are leading many of you to despair and to think that all is hopeless, but keep in mind why you are here on Earth. Recognize that the material comforts of the world will dissolve over time, sooner or later, and this then is a time when the importance of leading a spiritual life in a material world becomes obvious to you, for the things of this earth are transitory and will disappear over time.
Many of you are going through great struggles and disappointments with your family members and friends and you are feeling as if you are under constant attack from the evil one.
Well, it is true; such is the case that the evil one has raised his level of attacks on all of God’s children because he recognizes that the final battle is near. At this time, he wants to cull down and plow through the Lord’s children to create as much destruction and despair as he can.
So you will feel more under attack and in more despair and disappointment in these times, because of the situations that have developed within your personal and family relations, and among your friends and trusted ones that seem to be ripping at the very good will and nature of humanity.
These are all signs of the times that you are in, and you must know that these situations and struggles will also pass over time, as the great stirring that I speak of becomes a great shaking that leads to a powerful manifestation of the Lord and Saviour in your lives.
Therefore, it is more important now than in any other time in humanity for all of the Lord’s sons and daughters to pray powerfully to get through these times and these difficult struggles. Concentrate first on repairing the damage and despair that is taking place within your families and among your loved ones for the greatest and most important mission for each and every one of you is to pray for and to support your own family members and loved ones in these difficult times.
Next, it is important that you renew your bonds of friendship and a prayerful relationship with your friends and those who have been close to you. These are the times that call for all people to recognize the importance of the End Times by responding to your loved ones, your family members, and your friends in a prayerful and loving manner, so that each and every one of you are prepared to rely on each other for the troubling times in which you find yourself.
It is the nature of all of you to be loving and kind, and to be trustworthy and helpful to those you love. Recognize now that these attributes are of great importance.
I call upon all of you my sons and daughters to renew your relationships with each other under the mantle of your Mother’s Love so that you renew humanity globally by practicing your love for each other at home, so that the Love of the Father in Heaven can be manifested across the Earth by each and every one of you individually, and, therefore, collectively.
Then the love of all the Father’s children will bring about the final defeat of the evil one and his minions and restore the Original Order of Creation for all of you here on Earth, as originally intended by the Father in Heaven.
Finally, I want all of you to know that these times of great struggle are necessary for you to experience to attain the attributes of love and humility that are necessary to gain access to the gates of Heaven. It is through your love for each other and your humility that you will display to your Heavenly Father that it is your commitment to do His work here on Earth until you reach your final reward in Heaven.
I come to you today as the Lady of Light whose mission is to spread the Light of the Father in Heaven through His Son, the Saviour, to all of humanity to bring God’s love to you in these times.

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