Pray, little children, and witness so that in every heart, not human but God's peace may prevail, which no one can destroy. It is that peace in the heart which God gives to those whom He loves. By your baptism you are all, in a special way called and loved, therefore witness and pray that you may be my extended hands to this world which yearns for God and peace. Thank you for having responded to my call." 12/2011   Fr. Doucette: 904 Sat, Jan 14, 2012: The Wedding at Cana The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr Saturday, January 14, 2012     The Wedding at Cana On the third day there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding. When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine." And Jesus said to her, "Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come." His mother said to the servers, "Do whatever he tells you." Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons. Jesus told them, "Fill the jars with water." So they filled them to the brim. Then he told them, "Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter." So they took it. And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom and said to him, "Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now."

(Passage from the Gospel of St. John 2:1-11) Dear Friends, (Below you will find the message of Our Blessed Mother given to Father Melvin. Our Lady spoke to him these words:) "I am always praying for you, My son Melvin and all My sons and daughters living in every part of the world. I pray to My Son, Jesus, for you and as you can see from the wedding at Cana, Jesus never says no to My requests. At that wedding, I just told Him that they had no wine and I told the servers to do whatever He asked them. Indeed He got them to fill the jars with water and with His Divine Power He changed the water into wine. The headwaiter said that it was the best wine at the wedding. My Son, Jesus, is always ready to help anyone in difficulty if he or she asks Him. You know that this miracle was the first one that Jesus performed at the beginning of His public life. My dear children, know that you have a very great friend in Jesus. He came into this world to save you and He is ready to do anything so that one day you will be in heaven. Ask Him for the graces you need to avoid sin and to do good. His powerful grace is now spreading around the world to revive all those who are asleep and living in darkness. Come to Me and ask Me to pray to Him for you and I will do it as I did for these people at the wedding in Cana. I am His Mother and He loves Me with all His heart. I want the salvation of all of you, My children, so come and do all that Jesus asks of you. I bless you all.”" Father Melvin Friday, January 13, 2012   Jesus: A Cause of Division The Lord replied: "I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing! There is a baptism with which I must be baptized, and how great is my anguish until it is accomplished! Do you think that I have come to establish peace on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. From now on a household of five will be divided, three against two and two against three; a father will be divided against his son and a son against his father, a mother against her daughter and a daughter against her mother, a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law." (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 12:42a,49-53) Dear Friends, (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Saviour given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "Open your hearts, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters scattered all over the world. This year 2012 will be an intense year and I can tell you that I have already lit the fire and it has started spreading all over. This fire is a powerful grace that I announced at the beginning of the year. It is a grace that is greatly needed by many people today. Many people will be turned around and will come to believe in Me, who did not believe before. Others will change their ways and will become more spiritual. They will begin to pray and to go to church. Yes, at times this grace will cause division but do not worry about that. Come, My friends, open your hearts to Me and come and follow Me." Father Melvin Thursday, January 12, 2012 Vigilant and Faithful Servants Jesus said to his disciples, Gird your loins and light your lamps and be like servants who await their master's return from a wedding, ready to open immediately when he comes and knocks. Blessed are those servants whom the master finds vigilant on his arrival. Amen, I say to you, he will gird himself, have them recline at table, and proceed to wait on them. And should he come in the second or third watch and find them prepared in this way, blessed are those servants. Be sure of this: if the master of the house had known the hour when the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. You also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come." Then Peter said, "Lord, is this parable meant for us or for everyone?" And the Lord replied, "Who, then, is the faithful and prudent steward whom the master will put in charge of his servants to distribute the food allowance at the proper time? Blessed is that servant whom his master on arrival finds doing so. Truly, I say to you, he will put him in charge of all his property. But if that servant says to himself, 'My master is delayed in coming,' and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, to eat and drink and get drunk, then that servant's master will come on an unexpected day and at an unknown hour and will punish him severely and assign him a place with the unfaithful. (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 12:22a,35-46) Dear Friends, (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Saviour given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "It is with joy that I greet you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who believe in Me and are faithful to Me. There are so many today who have stopped believing in Me and most often it is because they are led by the evil one to do what is a great offense against the Father and against Me. How many people today have stopped going to church because they are living together man and woman but they did not receive the sacrament of marriage. It is the same with those who have started to drink heavily or to take drugs. These things have become their gods and they have rejected Me who suffered and died on the cross to bring them out of darkness and into the light so they could live in peace, love and joy with Me forever. I desire faithful brothers and sisters who are always turned toward Me and who call on Me often during the day for the graces they need to overcome the opposition they come across to do good. You need My help if you are to continue to be faithful as a follower of mine. I bless you all.”" Father Melvin Fr. Doucette: 900] Tue, Jan 10, 2012: The Mission of the Seventy-Two The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr./ 1704 Palmer Road, RR 2 Tignish, PE (Prince Edward Island)  C0B 2B0  /  CANADA Tel: 902-882-2004 / Email: melvin.doucette@pei.sympatico.ca Tuesday, January 10, 2012 The Mission of the Seventy-Two After this the Lord appointed seventy -two others whom he sent ahead of him in pairs to every town and place he intended to visit. He said to them, "The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest. Go on your way; behold, I am sending you like lambs among wolves. Carry no money bag, no sack, no sandals; and greet no one along the way. Into whatever house you enter, first say, 'Peace to this household.' If a peaceful person lives there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. Stay in the same house and eat and drink what is offered to you, for the laborer deserves his payment. Do not move about from one house to another. Whatever town you enter and they welcome you, eat what is set before you, cure the sick in it and say to them, 'The kingdom of God is at hand for you.' Whatever town you enter and they do not receive you, go out into the streets and say, 'The dust of your town that clings to our feet, even that we shake off against you.' Yet know this: the kingdom of God is at hand. I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom on that day than for that town. (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 10:1-12) Dear Friends, (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "I bless you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters scattered all over the face of the earth. During My time on earth I chose seventy-two men and I sent them two by two to every town and village I was to visit. They were to announce the coming of the kingdom of God and to cure the sick. They would stay in the home where they were welcomed. If the people did not receive them, they were to go in the middle of the street and shake the dust of the town from their feet as a warning. Everyone who enters the Kingdom of God is given a mission. The mission will be made known to you so that you can use the gift the Father has given you. Some have the gift to preach, others have the gift to sing and play an instrument of music, others have the gift of taking care of money and still others have the gift to take care of the sick and elderly. You all have the mission to announce Me to the people you meet. If you do not carry out your mission then it will never be accomplished. Look around where you live and see the various organizations there is and become a member of at least one of them. I am happy with such groups as the Knights of Columbus, the Catholic Women's League and the Charismatic Movement to name a few of them. I bless you all." Father Melvin http://www.thewarningsecondcoming.com/virgin-mary-my-child-peace-will-reign-on-earth-soon/ Virgin Mary – My child peace will reign on earth soon. Friday, January 13th, 2012 @ 08:15 pm  My child peace will reign on earth soon. There will be turbulence and strife but it is necessary in order to weed out the final wickedness on earth. My Father’s hand will fall swiftly on those who ignore My Son’s mercy. He will not tolerate their disobedience once the truth has been revealed to them. Those who turn their backs on My Son, after The Warning, will be accorded a certain period of time in which to show remorse for their sins but this will not last long. Pray for those souls whose obstinateness will be their downfall. My child the changes are already underway and much will happen quickly. Watch the skies children for the first signs of My Son’s Mercy. For those with humble and contrite hearts have no fear because this is the time you have been waiting for. Those souls who do not recognise My Son’s existence  will be surprised and sorrowful when the truth is finally presented to them. Those tormented souls who have pledged allegiance to the evil one will be  overwhelmed with grief, while others will hide from the truth because they will not be able to withstand the light. Pray that all such souls, through the prayers of others can and will be redeemed in the eyes of My precious Son. Conversion will avert chastisement and ease the wicked plans underway by the antichrist to destroy humanity. Pray that the battle between Heaven and the evil one will result in that all of God’s children can be saved and spared from the fires of hell. Your beloved Mother Queen of the Roses Mother of Salvation Holy Love January 12, 2012 January 12, 2012 Public "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate." "I would like to explain to you the difference between prudent deliberation and procrastination.  Sometimes before acting or speaking, it is wise to weigh your options in the light of Holy Love.  Of course, this is not always possible due to the press of time.  It is then the soul acts or speaks according to the foundation of Holy Love in his heart or the lack thereof." "But there are other times when God's Will is obvious;  however, the soul procrastinates any decision.  This is clearly unwise, and only serves as an obstacle to the fulfillment of God's plans.  Procrastination is a tool of Satan and, as is the case with all his tools, an obstacle to good and a sign of pride." "Therefore, do not put off any deed you know is your responsibility but tend to everything in a timely fashion.  If you are uncertain as to the path to follow, pray for prudence and wisdom."

Visions not revealed http://www.greenscapular.org/ ***ALERT*** Prepare for the "Awakening" by attending Sacramental Confession.  ***ALERT*** Many prophetic and devastating visions seen by Anna Marie have not been revealed because they are too frightening.  Please pray for the Lord's mercy that they do not take place   Heavenly Messages The Lord has spoken to men and women throughout the Old and New Testament.  Even today, Jesus communicates with His people, always teaching us to love one another as He loves us, to forgive and be obedient to the Laws of God. The Lord speaks to everyone, who seeks Him, in a whisper, in Scripture, or by a Priest giving a Mass Homily.  The Lord loves every single human with the same love, no one is more special than another.  Jesus loves the sinner, not the sin. In 1997, the Lord began speaking to Anna Marie after she spent some time in Conyers, GA.  He directed her to begin an Apostolate. When she asked the Lord what to name it, Jesus said: "It will be called the Apostolate of the Green Scapular." Jesus and His Mother, have since commissioned her and her prayer group to make and mail out "free" blessed Green Scapulars, according to His will. This Apostolate requests everyone reading the messages on this website to DISCERN and pray, pray pray that they do not occur.  Any prophetic warnings Jesus or Mother Mary gives to Anna Marie He does so because He is asking everyone reading the messages to pray to our Heavenly Father for mercy, so that the prophetic pending disaster is mitigated.  Prayer works, God's people must pray and ask mercy because our world is evil and we have all sinned.  Prayer works and we ask you to be an active Prayer Warrior, praying daily for God's mercy.      PAPAL STATEMENTS "It is better to believe than not to believe, for, if you believe, and it is proven true, you will be happy that you have believed, because Our Holy Mother asked it.  If you believe, and it should be proven false, you will receive all blessings as if it had been true, because you believed it to be true."  -- His Holiness, Urban VIII (Pope, 1623-44) "This too must be listed among the rights of a human being, to honor God according to the sincere dictates of his own conscience, and therefore the right to practice his religion privately and publicly."  --- His Holiness, John XXIII, Pacem in Terris, April 11, 1963 Medjugorje Day By Day Jan 14 - What we can do for the sick It moves me to see how the joy of Eucharistic adoration is increasing throughout the Church, and how its fruits are appearing. During the period of liturgical reform, Mass and Eucharistic adoration outside of Mass were often seen as being in opposition." "[However,] receiving the Eucharist means adoring Him Whom we receive." (Pope Benedict XVI, Dec. 22, 2005) Mother Teresa - Jesus' good news was God's peace to all men of good will. That peace is something which is fundamental to the satisfaction of our most basic desires. It is a peace of the heart. We have been created to live in peace.   Padre Pio - Never fall back on yourself alone, but place all your trust in God. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archbishop Fulton Sheen - We live in the time of greatest danger to the soul "Because of cold wars, high taxes, threats of inflation, and general insecurity, we have become accustomed to take a dark view of the world. There is some justification for this, for never before in the history of Christian civilization was there ever such a mass attack on decency, honor, personal rights and freedom as there is at the present hour." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Ask of My faithful servant [Father Sopocko] that, on this day, he tell the whole world of My great mercy; that whoever approaches the Fount of Life on this day will be granted complete remission of sins and punishment. Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy. Oh, how much I am hurt by a soul's distrust! Such a soul professes that I am Holy and Just, but does not believe that I am Mercy and does not trust in My Goodness. Even the devils glorify My Justice but do not believe in My Goodness. My Heart rejoices in this title of Mercy. (300) Proclaim that mercy is the greatest attribute of God. All the works of My hands are crowned with mercy. (301) 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. Jan 14 With regard to what we can do for the sick, the Virgin said : "Pray, pray and believe firmly. Say the prayers which have already been requested. [7 Our Fathers, 7 Hail Marys & 7 Glory Bes and the Creed. Do more penance. (First Years April 15, 1982). Healing the sick was a major part of Christ's ministry on earth: When Jesus entered Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever; he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she got up and began to serve him. That evening they brought to him many who were possessed with demons; and he cast out the spirits with a word, and cured all who were sick(Mt 8:14-16). Reflection: Rather than speak of the sick, let us today simply pray for them as Our Lady asks. The following prayer was given to Jelena, the locutionist, by the Madonna. She said that it was the most beautiful prayer that could be offered for those who are ill. Application: Today, offer the following Prayers for the Sick: O my God, behold your sick child before you. Heed his special request, that which he feels is most important for him. May you, my Lord, entrust to his heart these words: "The health of the soul, too, is vital." Lord, may your will be done in him; if you choose his healing, may he be cured; if you choose another blessing, may he bear his cross with love. I also pray to you for all who intercede for him. Purify our hearts that we many worthily convey your holy mercy. Protect your child, relieve his pain, that your will may be done in him, and that your presence and love may be revealed through him. Grant him the grace to bear his cross with courage. Amen. Just released messages to Jennifer 1/10/12 11:30 AM (From the Blessed Mother) My daughter, I ask My children to open their hearts to my son. I ask them to truly take time in prayer to see all the goodness that my son desires for your lives but too many are seeking to be their own god. My children come to my son and in adoration of the suffering that He went through for your salvation offer to Him all your trials and sufferings. Heaven is only obtained through merits of a humble heart. Surrender yourselves today to the will of your Heavenly Father. Unite your hearts to the plan that my son is soon to deliver upon this sinful world. Keep your eyes fixed on Him so that through Him and with Him you may obtain the grace necessary to suffice you for the times to come. I come my children with the mantle of my love and tenderness as your mother to call you back to the light of truth which is my son Jesus. 1/10/12 11:45 AM (From the Blessed Mother) My chosen sons, You are my beloved ones called upon by the Almighty to use your hands to do His work on this earth; to use your hands to consecrate the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of my son Jesus; to caress His tender body that paid ransom for the sins of mankind; to elevate Him in the Mass to be glorified in heaven and on earth; to use your voice to be one with His so that you guide your flocks to be obedient to the Commandments and to exemplify the truth which continues to be removed in this dark world. My sons, I as your mother call to you now in a way that I have never called before. Remain united to the truth and the Church which is under great attack. Through your prayers and your obedience to the Holy Father, together we will defeat the enemy that desires to obtain souls that will lead them into eternal darkness. Pray for your flocks my sons, for I am here to assist each one of you as your heavenly mother by way of obedience to my son Jesus. 1/10/12 6:30 PM My child, I tell My children that I am your hope, I am the truth for I am Jesus. My children, I am the light that came into the world in order for you to have eternal life and I am the light that can never be extinguished. My children, rejoice for all the evil in the world cannot claim you if you trust in Me for I am here to guide you to heaven. Today is a new day, a day to awaken and not to look back at all the things that you have done that removed you from Me rather enter into this new time with renewed joy and hope in your hearts.I already came and paid ransom for the sins in which you have and will commit. Look into your hearts and realize the true meaning of your Baptism. If you desire to look back it should only be to repent of the things in which you have not asked Me for My mercy. Each day should be a renewal of your Baptism for you are each My children and the only desire of My heart is to embrace you at your hour of day to be with Me in paradise. Come to Me My children, come and fix your eyes upon living the truth for I am Jesus. Now go forth in peace for it is My mercy and justice that will prevail. http://www.wordsfromjesus.com/index.html Holy Love January 13, 2012 January 13, 2012 Friday Service - For all those falsely accused within society, governments and within Church circles;  that all calumnies are exposed by truth Jesus is here with His Heart exposed.  He says:  "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate." "My brothers and sisters, tonight I advise you strongly, I plead with you, persevere in Faith - Faith which is clothed in TRUTH;  for in the end TRUTH will be victorious." "Tonight I'm blessing you with My Blessing of Divine Love." Medjugorje Day By Day Jan 13 - HOLD ON IN YOUR SUFFERING   Mother Teresa - The Cross will be for us as it was for Christ: proof of the greatest love.   Meditations by Padre Pio - Temptation is a sure sign the soul is very pleasing to the Lord.  Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Pleasures are indeed good when they aid the soul "One cannot talk with the mouth full. Our thinking processes are impeded in direct relation to the intensity of the exercise of our sensible satisfactions. The more intense the sensible reaction, the less the concentration of thought. This is the basis for two important truths: first, lust does, as Scripture says, impede the spirit and the mind. The second is that the pleasures of the body do play an important role in aiding the soul. It is this very power of relaxation attached to sensible pleasure which proves such a boon; it rests our soul, and when pleasure does that, it is really pleasurable." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - When, on one occasion, my confessor told me to ask the Lord Jesus the meaning of the two rays in this image, I answered, "Very well, I will ask the Lord." During prayer I heard these words within me: The two rays denote Blood and Water. The pale ray stands for the Water which makes souls righteous. The red ray stands for the Blood which is the life of souls... These two rays issued forth from the very depths of My tender mercy when My agonized Heart was opened by a lance on the Cross. These rays shield souls from the wrath of My Father. Happy is the one who will dwell in their shelter, for the just hand of God shall not lay hold of him. I desire that the first Sunday after Easter be the Feast of Mercy. (299) 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. Jan 13 - HOLD ON IN YOUR SUFFERING Our Lady speaks today of perseverance and suffering as especially touching the heart of her Son: Thanks to all of you who have come here, so numerous during this year, in spite of snow, ice and bad weather, to pray to Jesus. Continue, hold on in your suffering. You know well that when a friend asks you something, you give it to him. It is thus with Jesus. When you pray without ceasing and you come in spite of your tiredness, he will give you all that you ask from him. For that pray. Suffering leads us to the heart of Christ (Locutionists Jelena & Mirjana December 1, 1983). In this passage from 1 Peter, suffering is presented as a positive and redemptive force when linked to the passion of Christ: For it is a credit to you if, being aware of God, you endure pain while suffering unjustly. If you endure when you are beaten for doing wrong, what credit is that? But if you endure when you do right and suffer for it, you have God's approval. For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you as example, so that you should follow in his steps (1 Pt 2:19-21). Reflection: During the First World War, a village behind the lines in the Somme Valley had been repeatedly shelled, and there were many civilian casualties. The church too had been damaged, but it was the largest building available for an emergency hospital. The altar was turned into an improvised operating table. One of the casualties brought in by stretcher was a young soldier who belonged to the village and was home on leave. He was badly wounded and his leg would have to come off at once. "You'll have to be brave", said the doctor, "I'm afraid this is going to be painful. We've got no anesthetic; it was all destroyed when the hospital was hit." The young man looked at the "surgical altar", and pointed with his head towards the large crucifix over it. "I'll be all right on the altar", he said. "So long as I can look at him, I'll manage." With Jesus Christ, all things are bearable, and even acquire a redemptive value when linked to his cross. For the Christian there is no empty pain; it is transformed with Christ's into a path to salvation. Application: Offer a prayer to the Lord today giving him any annoyances, discomfort, or pain you may experience. Try to make this a daily offering Virgin Mary: Crusade Prayer (19) Prayer for young people Friday, January 13th, 2012 @ 08:00 am  My child I am sorrowful today because I suffer much as I think of those poor souls who will die during The Warning. You must ask for urgent prayer for these souls who anger My Father. Their behaviour is an abomination in His eyes. Please pray, pray, pray for these children of the dark many of whom do not know what they are doing. Their wickedness causes My Son to weep and his wounds to fester. It is important that as many souls as possible are enveloped into the arms of My Son at His Divine Mercy. Please ask for this Crusade of Prayer to be said to me, the Mother of Salvation, to save these poor children.   Mother of Salvation I ask you to pray for the mercy of young souls who are in terrible darkness so that they recognise your Beloved Son when He comes to redeem the whole of mankind Let not one soul fall by the wayside Let not one soul reject His Great Mercy I pray Mother that all are saved and ask you to cover these souls with your Holy Mantle To provide them the protection they need from the deceiver.   My child all souls are important to My Son. But it is the young souls in mortal sin that hurt Him the most. Pray that the light of Mercy shines through the darkness of their minds and souls. Pray that they will reject their terrible lives of depravity and emptiness that they lead. Pray that they will reach up and beg for mercy otherwise they will never receive the graces they need to enter the New Paradise. What a loss these young people will be to the rest of you who will accept the gift of the Warning and enter the New Era of Paradise on earth.  It will break My Son’s heart if they cannot be saved. Your beloved Mother Mary Queen of Heaven Mother of Salvation http://www.thewarningsecondcoming.com/prayers-urgently-needed-for-souls-in-mortal-sin-may-not-get-the-chance-to-seek-redemption/ Pray for souls in mortal sin who may not get the chance to seek redemption Thursday, January 12th, 2012 @ 03:30 pm  My dearest beloved daughter there is a need for everyone to pray with all their hearts now for the souls who may not survive the shock when they witness The Warning and My Great Mercy. Some of these poor souls in mortal sin may not get the chance to seek redemption so please ensure that your prayers are offered up for such souls. Prayer is urgently needed to pray for those souls in darkness. So intent are they in their wickedness to destroy humanity, through monetary and other controls, that they will find The Warning to be a terrible shock. I need them to be given the chance to repent but many will resist Me. Please pray for these tortured souls. Finally I would like to ask all My followers to recite the Divine Mercy at every opportunity as the times gets closer now for My Great Warning. To all those believers who refuse to accept that it is I, Jesus Christ, their Saviour speaking to them through these messages hear Me now. Do not be like those poor souls who lived in the time of Noah when he was sneered at. Open your minds and give generously of your time in prayer. That is all I ask of you at this time. You, My children, will cry tears of remorse when you realise your mistake. And yes, I will forgive you even though you have hurt Me deeply. Your insults wound Me. Your taunts are like a knife twisting Me inside out because you think that you know Me but you don’t. Your minds are closed to My true voice which is like a cry in the wilderness. Your loftiness offends Me. You must accept that the way is now being planned for My Second Coming. You may not listen to Me now as I plead with you to pray for souls who will be lost to me. But you will when this is proven to you after this great event. For then I will expect you to follow Me and form the remnants of My Church. It will be then that we will all unite to pick up the pieces left as we walk towards My New Paradise. Your  beloved Jesus Christ Saviour and Redeemer of all Mankind http://www.thewarningsecondcoming.com/the-biggest-abomination-since-the-holocaust-is-being-plotted-against-the-jews/ The biggest abomination since the Holocaust is being plotted against the Jews Wednesday, January 11th, 2012 @ 03:00 pm My dearly beloved daughter watch now the efforts being made by the Global Power, not of the light, which attempts to mount a campaign against My people. I refer to Christians and My chosen people the Jews. Wicked plans are being plotted to wipe out the practice of Christianity in a devious but subtle way. It will start with a change in the constitutions of countries everywhere in the western world. Every attempt will be made to cast scurrilous claims against My Christian churches. My sacred servants will slowly withdraw leaving My people with little spiritual support. All these laws will have a cunning exterior of tolerance. Your faith, My children, is being put to the test like never before Christianity and any attempts to publicly proclaim My name will be thwarted. In its place an empty doctrine will emerge and people will be confused. They will think that this doctrine is a good and fair replacement for the truth when, in fact, it will be a lie. This wicked group are so powerful very few know they exist. Yet they are everywhere pulling the strings.  My children are like puppets. My chosen people, the Jews are facing yet again a terrible persecution.  Plans to overthrow them are underway. Those they believe to be their friends are their enemies. They will suffer such hardship I call on all mankind to pray for Israel. The biggest abomination since the Holocaust is being plotted against My people. Pray, pray that the Anti-Christ’s Group are stopped from committing these evil acts. These dark souls need your prayers so that, during The Warning, they will recognise their offences. Pray that they drop their armour and beg for My Mercy. If they do then the wars and unrest in Israel can be diluted. Many prophecies will now unfold before your eyes. Those blind to My promises must be given the light of My Mercy in order to see again. Do not be deceived children. What seems good on the outside is not always as it seems. Peace-keeping forces, many of them innocent pawns, are being lied to. Never fear because My Mercy will have an important influence over this Sect who have been plotting against My church for centuries. They cannot and will not win. But they will cause tremendous terror unless prayer can mitigate their wicked dominance. Pray the New Crusade of Prayer (18) to help stop the Anti-Christ and his group about whom I speak. “Oh dear Jesus save the world from the Anti-Christ Protect us from the wicked snares of Satan Save the last remnants of your church from evil Give all your churches the strength and graces needed to defend ourselves against wars and persecution planned by Satan and his army of terrorists Amen.

This is why I must urge you all to sprinkle your home with Holy Water and have blessed candles everywhere. You must keep yourselves protected. In the lead up I ask of you this.

Remember that this time I came again to save you, each one of you. Not one do I exclude. Now is your chance children to be assured of a place in the era of peace on earth.

EVERYONE PLEASE THAT CAN BEGIN MAKING AS MANY HOLY HOURS OR NIGHT VIGILS WHATEVER YOU CAN DO..FOR HEAVEN.. IN JMJ mari Wednesday, January 11, 2012 Dependence on God Jesus said to his disciples, "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life and what you will eat, or about your body and what you will wear. For life is more than food and the body more than clothing. Notice the ravens: they do not sow or reap; they have neither storehouse nor barn, yet God feeds them. How much more important are you than birds! Can any of you by worrying add a moment to your lifespan? If even the smallest things are beyond your control, why are you anxious about the rest? Notice how the flowers grow. They do not toil or spin. But I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of them. If God so clothes the grass in the field that grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow, will he not much more provide for you, O you of little faith? As for you, do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, and do not worry anymore. All the nations of the world seek for these things, and your Father knows that you need them. Instead, seek his kingdom, and these other things will be given you besides. Do not be afraid any longer, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom. Sell your belongings and give alms. Provide money bags for yourselves that do not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven that no thief can reach nor moth destroy. For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be." (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 12:22-34) Dear Friends, Every day people are writing to me to enter names in the Book of Remembrance. They send me $15.00 for each person they wish to enter in the book. Those enrolled in the book are offered two Masses a week for a whole year, which means 104 Masses are offered for them. There are also rosaries and other prayers offered for them. I receive letters often letting me know the changes that have taken place in those people who are written in the book. (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Redeemer given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "It is because I love you that I want to help you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living in every country of the world. There are so many people who are worrying these days. They worry about food, about clothes to wear, about their vacation if they will have money to travel, etc. Some are not satisfied with the material things they have. They always want more. My dear brothers and sisters, what is important is to belong to the Kingdom of God. Live in love and peace in the Kingdom the Father wants to give you. If you live in the Kingdom every day, the Father will give you all you need. So do not worry about the material things of the world but put your heart in God's Kingdom. The Father takes care of all the animals and birds, He will also take care of you for you are of greater worth than all the animals and birds. I have come into the world to call you to enter the Kingdom and not to worry anymore. Come walk with Me and I will lead you to the promise land. I love you all."

"It is He who will baptize with The Holy Spirit." When we go to "The Lamb," Jesus in The Holy Eucharist, we ask for grace to live out our Baptismal calling as faithful children of The Father. With each Hail Mary we pray?to be open to receiving the gifts of The Holy Spirit (from our A-13 Rosary pamphlet). Mother Teresa - Remember that the Passion of Christ ends in the joy of the Resurrection of Christ!   Meditations by Padre Pio - Do not halt in seeking the truth, in discovering God. Be docile to the influence of grace, following its inspiration and attraction. Do not be ashamed of Christ and His doctrine.   Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Stream of consciousness lacks conscience! "As a human mind loses an objective and a goal in life, even its culture becomes identified with movement as pleasure, instead of the attainment of a goal. Modern writing reflects this inasmuch as it is made up of experiences strung together, but leading nowhere, nor painting any moral." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Jesus, living Host, You are my Mother, You are my all! It is with simplicity and love, with faith and trust that I will always come to You, O Jesus! I will share everything with You, as a child with its loving mother, my joys and sorrows-in a word, everything....(230) Holy Hour. During this hour of adoration, I saw the abyss of my misery; whatever there is of good in me is Yours, O Lord. But because I am so small and wretched, I have a right to count on Your boundless mercy....(237) Jesus, I trust in You; I trust in the ocean of your mercy. You are a Mother to me....(249) I feel certain that my mission will not come to an end upon my death, but will begin. O doubting souls, I will draw aside for you the veils of heaven to convince you of God's goodness, so that you will no longer continue to wound with your distrust the sweetest Heart of Jesus. God is Love and Mercy. (281) 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. Jan 11 - BE CONVERTED Concerning the urgency of conversion, Our Lady said in a locution to Jelena: Hurry to be converted. Do not wait for the great sign. For the unbelievers, it will then be too late to be converted. For you who have the faith, this time constitutes a great opportunity for you to be converted, and to deepen your faith (locutionist Jelena & Mirjana after December 15, 1982). Jesus also speaks of the pressing need for conversion: The people of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the proclamation of Jonah, and see, something greater than Jonah is here! (Mt 12:41). Reflection: In the ancient ruins of Pompeii, there was found a petrified woman who, instead of trying to flee from the city, had spent her time in gathering up her jewels. In one of the houses was found the skeleton of a man who, for the sake of a few coins, a small plate and a saucepan of silver, had remained in his house until the street was half-filled with volcanic matter, then was trying to escape from the window. Because life (and death) is built around priorities, both Christ and his Mother press us to put God and the spiritual first in our lives. This boils down to the various decisions we make every day. Deciding for God, or conversion, is an ongoing process. Little decisions build on one another, for good or bad. That is why Our Lady says to, "hurry to be converted?to deepen your faith", for it is a gradual process, rarely occurring overnight.   Application: In the decisions and choices you make today, try to be aware of the Lord's presence and what would please him. Holy Love January 11, 2012 January 11, 2012 Public Alanus (My Guardian Angel) says:  "Praise be to Jesus." "Lord Jesus, help me never to be an obstacle to God's Divine Will by my actions or inactions in thought, word or deed." "Say this prayer daily.  It pleases the Lord." Luz de María message of 18 Dec 2011   http://www.revelacionesmarianas.com/english_version.htm    MESSAGE FROM OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST TO HIS BELOVED DAUGHTER LIGHT OF MARY DECEMBER 18, 2011       Beloved children:   Receive My Blessing.   I GRANT THE STRENGTH OF MY PEOPLE TO EACH ONE OF YOU IN PARTICULAR SO THAT UNITED YOU MAY BE ONE. IN THE MEASURE IN WHICH YOU ASK AND SEEK, SO I PROVIDE FOR YOU.   Enter into a change, you must prepare yourselves spiritually for it. Go to receive Me in the Eucharist.   Children:            DO YOU WANT ME TO DWELL IN YOU? DO I HAVE A PLACE IN THE LIFE OF EACH ONE OF YOU?                                                DO YOU REMAIN WILLING TO LEAVE WHAT YOU MUST TO FOLLOW ME?   It is necessary that you identify the idols that live within you, which you do not want to banish.   Every human being is responsible for his or her actions and works. In this instant it is essential that your conscience remains open and your senses alert. Evil has taken a thousand and one forms to deceive My children and separate them from My Path.   DO NOT FORGET THAT DEATH ENTERS THROUGH SIN. DO NOT FORGET THAT ALL HUMAN BEINGS ARE LACKING CONVERSION, YES…, THEY NEED CONVERSION.   Be humble, this instant is of the humble, of those who confess their smallness.   The humble one shows what he or she is and what he or she needs. That is how I want My children: humble and sincere of heart.   Beloved, the greatness of those who are Mine is that they maintain their hope in Me, without allowing themselves to be deceived by what is temporal.   Let the signs that furrow the firmament not go by unnoticed.   The smoke will rise from the depths of the earth and will block the sun, a sleeping giant will roar with force.   My children: Pray for Japan. Pray for Venezuela, it will suffer. Pray for Argentina, it will suffer.   The power that man has given the antichrist will shake the same powers. Humanity in general will suffer the scarcity.   Once again I call you to remain centered in My requests. The dawn of sorrow is near.   The wind, victim of man’s misuse of science, will disperse the contamination emanated from a nuclear plant. Man, in the unsatisfied desire for power, will torment himself. My Heart suffers for the innocents that will suffer.   You sin too much; you harden your heart so as to continue in sin. Do not forget that you are my children, and I will rescue you from the clutches of evil.   TODAY I CALL YOU TO BE PURE, TO REMAIN UNITED WITH ME AND TO PAY ATTENTION TO MY ORDERS. APPROACH TO ME INTERNALLY THROUGH PRAYER. BE TRUE AND DO NOT BE SLAVES OF WHAT IS WORLDLY.     Have My Peace and My Blessing.     Your Jesus.     HAIL MARY MOST PURE, CONCEIVED WITHOUT SIN. HAIL MARY MOST PURE, CONCEIVED WITHOUT SIN. HAIL MARY MOST PURE, CONCEIVED WITHOUT SIN.       THE INSTRUMENT’S COMMENTARY ON THE MESSAGE FROM OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST DECEMBER 18, 2011   Brothers and sisters:   THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST BE WITH ALL.   We are pilgrims, let us raise our hands towards God, let us raise them being conscious that those same hands must at every moment do good.   Let us unite in a single heart and pray for one another, wishing each other well.   Jesus Christ is the goal and we are called to that goal. We have a restless heart that cannot rest in any other thing that is not in the Lord.   Amen.  Message from God Speaks will you Listen new message from Cletus Scheffers and Verne To the nations of the world:                                                                                                        01/08/2012   You are being given 2 visions of the future of the earth. The kingdom of the Divine Will of my Father, or the kingdom of Satan, allowed by my Father, as a chastisement for rejecting my mercy. The holy scripture, describes these kingdoms to you. Listen to the words of the prophet Isaias, describing  the first vision: For behold I create new heavens, and a new earth; and the former things shall not be in remembrance, and they shall not come upon the heart…And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people, and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. There shall no more be an infant of days there, nor an old man that shall not fill up his days: for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed. And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of my people, and the works of their hands shall be of a long continuance. My elect shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth in trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord, and their posterity with them. And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will hear; as they are yet speaking, I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together; the lion and the ox shall eat straw; and the dust shall be the serpent’s food: they shall not hurt nor kill in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord. (Isaias 65:17-25) This is a description of the era of peace or the seventh day of creation promised by my Eternal Father to mankind. This is not the era of peace or new age promised by the false religions of the new age developed in the pits of hell. This era of peace brings a partial fulfillment to the prayer which I taught my disciples: Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. (Matthew 6:9-13) The final fulfillment of this prayer will take place at the end of human history. This is when I will return in the flesh for the last judgment.  Death, hell, and all those who reject my mercy will be cast into the pool of fire for eternity. The righteous, or those who repented and accepted my mercy, will live with the Holy Trinity for eternity, in the eternal eighth day of creation.  This is my desire for all of mankind. The reason I was born was to destroy the works of the devil (I John 3:8) and redeem mankind from sin and separation from the Divine Will. In the beginning, the Divine Will created man in the image of God. And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:27).                                                                      2                                                                                                                                                                  ;                                                                                                                                                                                                                               But the first humans, Adam and Eve believed the lies of Satan and rejected the Divine Will. Henceforth,  sin and death came  into your world. Human history is the result of mankind rejecting the Divine Will of  the  Holy Trinity. Wars, famine, natural disasters, and disease are a result of the rejection of the Divine Will. But the Divine Will loves humanity so much, I, the second person of the Divine Will took on human flesh and became man. For God so loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in him may not perish, but may have life everlasting. (John 3:16) I, Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary in humble conditions for your salvation. I lived, taught, healed, and walked amongst humanity for 33 years. Then, I was crucified, died, buried, and rose from the dead for your salvation. I cried out to my Father on the cross:                 Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. (Luke 23:34) I prayed this prayer for each human person who would ever be born. This includes each of you reading this message. I paid the penalty completely for your sin and rebellion against the Divine Will. All I ask of you is to: Repent of you sins and accept my mercy and forgiveness. Then read what the scripture tells you: If then any be in Christ a new creation, the old things are passed away, behold all things are made new. (2 Corinthians 5:17). And putting on the new, him who is renewed unto knowledge, according to the image of him that created him. (Colossians 3:10) The gift of the Divine Will is given through repentance and forgiveness through my Divine Mercy. Then, you are living as the Divine Will created you to live. I instituted my church, The Holy Catholic church as my messenger to the world. For I am,  Jesus the head of the church. The Holy Catholic church brings the Divine Will to mankind through its teachings, sacraments, and prayers. To those who are not Catholic or do not know me, I say to you, I am, Jesus, The Divine Mercy of the Divine Will. Repent, ask for forgiveness of your sins, and pray to the Holy Spirit who will guide you into all truth. I have given you my Mother Mary as an intercessor for you. Pray to her, for her mission is to lead you to her son Jesus. If you do not know how to pray, simply say, Lord be merciful to me a sinner and receive my mercy and forgiveness. The fulfillment of the Divine Will is to dwell in the souls of mankind. This is our desire. Is this your desire? There will be no peace on earth until mankind acknowledges and accepts the Divine Will. Now, listen to the Apocalypse describe the second vision:                                                                                   3 And power was given him over every tribe, and people, and tongue, and nation….And he shall make all, both little and great, rich and poor, freemen and bondmen, to have a character in their                                                                      right  hand, or on their foreheads. And that no man might buy or sell, but he that hath the character, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. (Apocalypse 13:7, 16, 17)  The sins of your generation, without repentance, will bring the justice of God on your earth. This will be a punishment for rejecting the Divine Will. An event will happen which will be a warning to mankind to repent and accept the Divine Will. This has been called the warning or illumination of conscience. Behold, he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they also that pierced him. And all the tribes of the earth shall bewail themselves because of him.   Even so.  Amen. (Apocalypse 1:7) This verse describes the warning. All of humanity will see my cross and suffering in the sky. At that moment, every person will see their sins and the current state of their soul.  Also, your eternal destination and judgment will be revealed to you, as if it occurred, at that moment. You will then know the truth of the Divine Will. You will be given an opportunity to repent. If you repent and accept my mercy, your sins will be forgiven.  This event will take place because of my Divine Mercy and Divine love for each person who is alive on your earth. If mankind refuses the Divine Mercy of the warning, a chastisement greater than the flood will occur. My Father will allow Satan to establish the kingdom of an antichrist to punish mankind for rejecting the Divine Will. Your nations will be subjugated, your freedoms lost, with persecution and death to all who oppose this satanic kingdom.  The demons of hell will be unchained and then My Father will cause the earth to undergo three days of darkness whereby the world will be cleansed of sin and the powers of hell. All those rejecting the Divine Will, without repentance, will be cast into hell until the final judgment. After the three days of darkness, the era of peace and the kingdom of the Divine will, will reign on earth as it is in heaven. I warn you again you have a choice. Repent and enter the era of peace or reject the Divine Will and suffer the justice of the Divine Will of the Holy Trinity. The choice is each of yours today. Be like Josue and say,  But if it seem evil to you to serve the Lord, you have your choice: choose this day that which pleaseth  you, whom you would rather serve, whether the gods which your fathers served in Mesopotamia, or the gods of the Amorrhites, in whose land you dwell: but as for me and my house we will serve the Lord. (Josue 24:15) The Divine Will gives you the same choice today. Reject the lies and the false gods of your day or face the justice of the Divine Will of the Holy Trinity:  Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Divine Mercy and Divine Love of Jesus Christ brings these words to you today.

Remember that this time I came again to save you, each one of you. Not one do I exclude. Now is your chance children to be assured of a place in the era of peace on earth.

Ps. 16; Mt. 5:17-19 There is but One God over heaven and earth:  it is I, the Lord, your God.  To be a true servant of the Lord you should make sure of whom you follow.  You are easily led astray, My lambs; and for this reason I have sent you My Very Self.  And now, in My stead, I send you Grace upon Grace from Me.  Come, and be witnesses for My Sake.  Ah!  But be sure of your grounding.  Truly, be grounded in Me in My Church, in all which She teaches you:  Scripture *and* Tradition.  Come to understand properly in Her Light, for she is illumined by My Own Spirit; and the rays which pass through you from the Spirit are Truth and Understanding.  Light and Life:  come and live.....*dwell* in Me!  Amen.  +   1 Kings 18:41-46; Ps. 65; Mt. 5:20-26 These Words I impart to you are sound advice:  Do unto others as you would have done unto you.  Be full of heart in the Lord.  Obey My directives, My commands and LIVE in your Lord.  See, that MANY words are spoken; but the Word of the Lord is simple and pure, filling a heart who is following Me.  Now, up from your own hearts let your word be known as My Own by its Simplicity, by its Truth, by its Love!  Amen.  +   Sacred Heart of Jesus -- Ez. 34:11-16; Ps. 23; Rom. 5:5b-11; Lk. 15:3-7 My Heart:  pouring Myself out for each and every one of you.  My Heart:  bearing the Wounds I have suffered for your sakes.  My Heart:  Flesh and Blood offered up for your Salvation.  My Heart:  in My Hand, given for you, given TO you.  Come, follow Me.  Come, be counted as My Own!  Amen.  +   Immaculate Heart of Mary -- Is. 61:9-11; Ps.=1Sm. 2; Lk. 2:41-51 Not knowing, not understanding all things, but always striving to trust in the Goodness of God.  This is a way to True Life in Me.  And it is for this reason I give you My Mother as your own;

but often, as the road bends you lose sight more and more, of Me.  My Light shines on your pathway, but if you choose to veer away, you may only be seeing in shadow.  The purity of your intention becomes marred and then changed from purpose to one of self-serving deed.  How easily this can occur!  Oh!  How much attention must be paid along your journey of life!  Amen.  +   1 Kings 21:17-29; Ps. 51; Mt. 5:43-48 I am calling you forward, and by each step you come to know Me more.  I call you to perfection, to a higher plane of thought, to a perfected way of living.  The more you know Me, the more you enter Love, for Love is Who I am!  Ah!  But are you willing?  Are you ready?  Have you prepared your hearts?  To come live with Me.....in Me, you must willingly walk away from sinful ways with a repentant heart.  I am offering you My Hand.  Will you take It?  Come to know Me.  I AM Perfection.  Along your way you live amid your trial and error, your sinful ways and its effects.  Ah!  But My Hand remains extended and My Heart rejoices at your entry into Me!  Amen.  + 2 Kings 2:1, 6-14; Ps. 31; Mt. 6:1-6, 16-18 Look at the whole of life.  What do you believe?  How do you live within that belief?  How well does your  heart beat, throb, within My Own?  Are you satisfied with smallness, with the duties of your own state in life; and do you offer them to Me?  For I will.....I DO meet you there!  Life has purpose, and within life find:  the purpose for which YOU were created.  BE in Me!  Let this relationship, OUR relationship beat as one heart.....quietly, perhaps unseen, whole, in accord with My Will.  Amen.  +   Sirach 48:1-14;

13:1; Ps. 63; Gal. 3:26-29; Lk. 9:18-24 This Heart, this Heart of  your God calls you forth to lead a True Life in Me!  Hearing that you are called to be children of God:  does that not encourage you to behave as one family in Me?  Or do you not believe My Word?  Do you not trust in the power of My Grace?  Or are you unwilling to live This Life to Which you are called?  There are many thoughts, words and deeds which you do; but if you think first in Me, speak in Me, act in, within My Love.....you shall be coming to live in Me as one people.  Live the ENTIRE life, the ENTIRE calling in Me!  Amen.  +   2 Kings 17:5-8, 13-15a, 18; Ps. 60; Mt. 7:1-5 Look at life.  Examine your hearts.  Look and see what I see.  Come to know your position before Me.  What of YOUR life can stand well in My Presence?  Upon close examination, what must stand;

let My Hand show you the Way!  Here I am.  Let YOU be found at My Side.  Let Me find you Here within My Heart.  Amen.  +   2 Kings 22:8-13; 23:1-3; Ps. 119; Mt. 7:15-20 My Law.  My Word.  My Speech.  My Way.  I give It all to you.  Do you keep the Way of the Lord?  So many words are spoken, but one life is given to you each.  What will you do, what DO you do with your lives, little ones?  How well do you keep My Word?  I speak.  Listen.  Learn.  Live.  Amen.  +   Nativity of John the Baptist -- Is. 49:1-6; Ps. 139; Acts 13:22-26; Lk. 1:57-66, 80 Birth, life, death, purpose.  All are found in the Hand of God.  The Word is given and life goes forth.  Nothing happens without the Knowledge of God.  How you are within this Knowledge will be by your own free will choices within the time you have.  Ah!  But it is My Intention that as you are born into Me you would live in Me that when you die you rise into Me.  So the whole of it is life; unless it is you who chooses death.  Amen.  + 2 Kings 25:1-12; Ps. 137; Mt. 8:1-4 Look about you and see.  Where do you turn to find Me?  Here I am, always.  Would that you notice Me.  Would that you return to Me, to seek Me out.  Courage and stamina come from the Lord, so turn to Me.....come to Me and I will sustain you.  But if you flee from Me I will allow you to go.  This must be a relationship of willingness between you and I.  Amen.  +   Lamentations 2:2, 10-14, 18-19; Ps. 74; Mt. 8:5-17 Relying on your Lord.  Observing My Word and heeding It.  Walking "on your own" without Me is a dangerous pattern, for you are preparing your heart for an eternity without Me.  Ah!  But to rely on Me, to turn to Me, to trust in Me is for you to live a life of Truth in Me!  Amen.  +   Sunday -- 1 Kings 19:16b, 19-21; Ps. 16; Gal. 5:1, 13-18; Lk. 9:51-62 There is a need to follow Me, I have instilled It in your hearts.  Ah!  But the choice to follow remains your own.  Once chosen, follow Me all the days of your lives!  Measure all things according to My Will, My Law and the Natural Law I have instilled in you.  Conscience should be formed in Me and guided by My Word.  Let your "yes" mean "yes" and your heart be My Own.  Amen.  +   Amos 2:6-10, 13-16; Ps. 50; Mt. 8:18-22 When a heart listens and observes My Way I am pleased.  When a heart returns from wayward ways to My Own I am pleased.  When a heart strays and wanders I wait, in hope of the return to Me.  When I call, do you follow?  When you stray, do you repent?  When I have paved the Way, do you follow?  Do you see Me in every moment of your life?  I am your Lord, walking this Way.  Come, follow.  Remain.  Be in Life, now and forever.  Amen.  +   Sts.

Ps. 19; Mt. 9:1-8 The Law of the Lord:  What is Its Intent?  To punish?  Or to lead you to Me?  And how well do you follow Me?  Is your heart paralyzed, frozen away from me by sin?  Or are you walking freely in My Light?  Would you prefer to walk in the shadows, or to breathe in the Light of My Truth?  Listen, My people  Hear This Voice of your Lord!  I have called you for all time!  Come, follow My Way.  Walk in My Light of Truth.  Seek My way and BE in me.  Now and forever.  Amen.  +   First Friday -- Amos 8:4-6, 9-12;

Ps. 105; Mt. 10:1-7 When I call you to Myself it is that you adopt MY Ways, not your own.  Yet.....as you come to Me, My Ways can BE your own.  The willingness is up to you, just as your waywardness is your own.  So, which shall it be?  Will you come to Me and then remain, that I might send you forth in Me?  Glory and praise be to My Way!  Alleluia!  Join Me.  Go forth in Me.  Please.  Amen.  +   Hosea 11:1-4, 8e-9; Ps. 80; Mt. 10:7-15 I share My Word with you each.  My Love is so great for you, I have GIVEN My Word TO you.  Now, come to recognize the True Everlasting Value of what I have done for you.  Please do not decline My Invitation.  Listen.  Know your heart.  Here I am, a Beggar at your door.  Allow Me to enter.  Allow Me to return.  Please, My love, My loves, please.  Amen.  +   Hosea 14:2-10; Ps. 51; Mt. 10:16-23 I have spoken Words, My lambs.  My Word brings Life.  All too often your words are like vapors.  So be filled with True Life and let your ACTIONS speak for you.  Even if others refuse to observe you.  I see the intentions of your hearts.  True Life in Me is more than breath and physical life.  It is whole and entire.  Be alive in Me and live for My Sake.  In Me you shall never die.  Amen.  +   Is. 6:1-8;

A beautiful con-celebrated Mass followed including two powerful bi-lingual sermons given by two of the priests based on what they just witnessed.  At approximately 8:10 pm during the Litany, Pat went into the spirit and then began speaking very softly in a “conversation in tongues” in 3 different languages.  Then very slowly Our Lady’s message came:     “My dear children,     I am here tonight once again … with the blessing of the Father … who loves you so much … that He has allowed me to come … to share His love and His Mercy… to encourage you my children. Many here tonight … have sacrificed time, distance and sacrifice for love of others … to be here … to ask for intercession on behalf of those in need.     It is time my children … that you recognize … that time itself is a gift from God.  A grace given to each of you … at a particular moment of life. This is your time … a time not to fear … or allow anxiety to enter your life … but a time to accept that which cannot be explained. But only thru god’s grace … are you allowed to accept it. Will you do this my children … who do allow God to work in your life … as He chooses … not as you choose? For He loves you … and desires only that which will draw you closer to him. Be filled with joy … not fear. For God is always with you. You pray not to fall … not to fail in His desires for you … and yet it is exactly what you do. But realize, My children … that God is always with you . He has never left you. He knows your weaknesses … and the strength that He has given you. Listen to Him … for He speaks to each of you. Take the time to pray… to communicate with your God … and you will find that the peace that God desires … in your life … shall come to pass. Tonight, there are those who are very ill … those who have come for healing … to ask for intercession… the intercession of a Mother to Her Son. It is with faith and trust … that such intercession shall be done. I am a Mother who loves ….a Mother who draws you close to Her Son. Allow me to gather each of you … beneath My mantle … and there find the comfort and healing … that you need in your life. Remember needs … are separate from wants. God will attend to your needs. Pray….pray now My children.”     Pat’s now relates her vision: “There is a very … very bright light – a light indescribable. Within the light there is a form … of a most beautiful lady … Our Mother … crowned with a crown of gold. Not as we know it … for all that is seen is seen in lights. But this Lady, Our Mother … is looking downward toward Her children. Her arms are extended forward. Wrapped around Her arms is a beautiful rosary. But in each hand … the hand on the right is holding a ball or globe (I don’t know how to describe it.) The hues of the globe are inviting and peaceful … different colors of blues and greens … soft – soft colors … purple and the others just glimmer. I cannot describe them adequately!  In the left hand She holds another globe. One not so inviting. Perhaps one was of peace … the other turmoil. As I watch … She brings Her hands forward where both globes meet. The one of peace and tranquility … shatters as an explosion of lights … and there She holds the globe that brings us peace and tranquility.      She says:” “ From one of peace to one of turmoil …. with the rosary wrapped around my arms … I join them … and through the power of the rosary … through the power of prayer … the globe of peace survives … the other is eliminated. It is new life once again. New life, My children … for all of you. New life begins ... Christ is here. He brings new life to all … who open their hearts. Let this time be a new renewal … and new growth ... a new beginning … New Life in Christ!”   Commentary by Pat’s Spiritual Director     On the evening of 23 December 2011, a very beautiful message was received from our Lady, again encouraging the Faithful to put our complete trust in God’s plan for our lives and for our world. Perhaps in an allusion to the wild fires which devastated this beautiful area last June, our Lady spoke of the glory of God arising from ‘such ash and apparent utter destruction’ and promised that new growth will come, ‘growth will come from your faith that God will nurture’. A very precious promise, indeed!     Our Lady also spoke of the simplicity of her messages, which too often are made ‘complicated’ through our lack of understanding. Her messages of God’s love, of God’s presence, of God’s peace – poured into receptive hearts, are ‘simple’ and yet profound words. Our Lord speaks of this in the Gospel, when He says: “Father. . .what You have hidden from the learned and the clever You have revealed to the merest children!” (Matthew 11:25)     These messages should be received with the straight-forward and unquestioning trust of children who know that the One speaking to them loves them!     Following the message, the visionary related a vision of our Lady which is strikingly beautiful and again emphasizes the power of prayer, the importance of prayer for “new life . . . new growth . . . a new beginning . . . new life in Christ” to come into our lives and into our world. In the vision, our Lady was seen holding two globes – one of peace and the other of turmoil. The two globes were brought together and the globe of turmoil was shattered in “an explosion of lights” so that only the globe of peace and tranquility remained.     As the vision unfolded, it very powerfully recalled a strikingly similar vision which St. Catherine Laboure, the “Messenger of the Miraculous Medal”, received on 27 November 1830. In that vision, now known as the ‘Virgin of the Globe’, St. Catherine saw the Blessed Virgin lift a beautiful globe which she seemed to offer to God in a gesture of supplication. St. Catherine heard a voice in the depth of her soul which said: “This globe represents the whole world. . .and each person in particular.”     The visionary had no prior awareness of this apparition to St. Catherine Laboure before her own vision of the Virgin holding the two globes, which became the one ‘globe of peace’. For those who love the “Miraculous Medal”, this vision of the ‘Virgin of the Globe’ received on 23 December 2011, is an especially beautiful gift of our Mother’s love and a powerful encouragement to more fervent prayer, especially the Rosary!     Following the principal message and the vision of the ‘Virgin of the Globe’, a third, brief message was given, which spoke of the actual experience of receiving these visions and locutions. The contents of a third final recorded message will be archived. Presently it is not to be published.    http://www.ourladyofthesierras.org/   Medjugorje Day By Day Jan 12 - ADVANCE AGAINST SATAN The man who receives Holy Communion loses himself in God like a drop of water in the ocean: It's impossible to separate them anymore . . . . In these vast depths of love, there's enough to lose yourself for eternity" (St. John Vianney). Meditations by Padre Pio - 12. When the soul grieves and is afraid of offending God, it does not offend Him and is very far from committing sin. Archbishop Fulton Sheen 12 Nothing can be of its own "Minds never inquire where they came from, or where they are going; they are just on the way. They never begin, they never develop, they never end - they just stop. Nothing in life has shape, a pattern, a rule or destiny. Nothing links things together except more succession in time; the needle of writing is drawn through the cloth but it weaves no pattern." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html 1934. Once, when I returned to my cell, I was so tired that I had to rest a moment before I started to undress, and when I was already undressed, one of the sisters asked me to fetch her some hot water. Although I was tired, I dressed quickly and brought her the water she wanted, even though it was quite a long walk from the cell to the kitchen, and the mud was ankle-deep. When I re-entered my cell, I saw the ciborium with the Blessed Sacrament, and I heard this voice, Take this ciborium and bring it to the tabernacle. I hesitated at first, but when I approached and touched it, I heard these words, Approach each of the sisters with the same love with which you approach Me; and whatever you do for them, you do it for Me. A moment later, I saw that I was alone....(285) August 9, 1934. Night adoration on Thursdays. I made my hour of adoration from eleven o'clock till midnight. I offered it for the conversion of hardened sinners, especially for those who have lost hope in God's mercy. I was reflecting on how much God had suffered and on how great was the love He had shown for us, and on the fact that we still do not believe that God loves us so much. O Jesus, who can understand this? What suffering it is for our Savior! How can He convince us of His love if even His death cannot convince us? I called upon the whole of heaven to join me in making amends to the Lord for the ingratitude of certain souls. (319) 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. Jan 12 - ADVANCE AGAINST SATAN The Blessed Mother never mentions Satan without identifying the means to defeat him: Dear children, today I call you especially now to advance against Satan by means of prayer. Satan wants to work still more now that you know he is at work. Dear Children, put on the armor for battle and with the rosary in your hand, defeat him! (Weekly Message August 8, 1985). Jesus also speaks of defeating the Evil One: Or how can one enter a strong man's house and plunder his property, without first tying up the strong man? Then indeed the house can be plundered. Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters (Mt 12:29-30).   Reflection: Binding Satan is always a matter of faith and prayer, yet it also helps to be aware of his strategies, such as the following: Five Ploys of Satan Doubt - Tempts us to question God's Word and his goodness, forgiveness, and love Discouragement - Tempts us to focus intently on our problems rather than entrusting them to God's care Diversion - Tempts us to see the wrong things as attractive so that we will want them more than the right things Defeat - Tempts us to feel like failure so that we don't even try Delay - Tempts us to procrastinate so that things never get done Application: Reflect on these ploys of Satan, and if you find that he has darkened your life on any of these counts, lift up the situation to Our Lady in prayer. Recall her advice on binding the evil one: "Put on the armor of battle. With the rosary in your hand, defeat him!" Messages to The Two Patricks January 2, 2012   Monday 2 January 2012 Jesus: Look now, My children, and see My Truth. Look into your lives and discard that, that is not of Me. You search for peace, My little ones, but, I say, you cannot serve two Masters and this is what you do when you follow the world and Me, as I have told you, you will love one and hate the other. You must follow Me through actions not words for, words are weak, children, and they mean nothing without action. If any man would follow Me, he must walk in My Footsteps by dying to the things of this world. You cannot die to the things of the world through words; it is only through action. In other words, children, you must give up the things of this world that are not necessary in your lives, the things that keep you away from Me. I have told you that I am your Father, your God, and that I must be first in your lives. If everything else in your lives takes precedent over Me then I am not first. Come, beloved children of My Heart, and hear My calls. Begin this day, begin the Journey of Truth that will lead you into My Father's Kingdom. I Love you. Patrick: Thank You, Jesus, I love You. Monday 2 January 2012 Can you not see, My little ones? Can you not see what I am calling for? Have you become so blind? Or, do you not want to see in order that you remain in the self-centred lives that you live? I am calling out to you to come, follow Me in truth for, time is short and you do not realise how short it is. Many events will soon take place within your world and all that you have known and trusted in will be no more. I mean to shatter the false image that has been painted of this world by the so-called men of knowledge and science. I mean to shatter all knowledge or lies that have taken Me from this earth. Your understanding of this world will be thrown into great confusion when you realise that all you have been told is false and the only thing that you can depend upon is Me and My Truth. The ‘Time of Miracles’ is near upon you, children, and you are not ready. Soon, I shall send My Warriors of Truth into this world and this world shall be confounded as My Truth strikes. Remember, all must be equal upon the scales of free will: lucifer has gained more and more and the scales are heavily laden on his side but, I tell you, children, soon I will bring the scales back to equilibrium and this world will be shocked when it realises how it has been deceived. Prepare for this time, children, prepare now for many shall turn against Me and My followers for they will deny the Truth in their hearts and throw themselves headlong into the pit and the service of lucifer. I tell you, My Army shall strike them down with the Sword of Truth and they shall fall headlong into that that they have created for themselves by their sin. Begin now, children, begin to follow Me in Truth and throw off the scales of untruth that you have allowed to cloud your eyes for I am Returning and My followers must be prepared. I Love you.   Patrick: Thank You, Jesus, I love You. Monday 2 January 2012 Jesus: I Come, children, and I Come to claim My own for Myself. Those who have followed Me in truth, their reward shall be great, those whom I do not recognise shall be cast into the abyss for their sin. Trust in Me and follow in My Footsteps, walk the Path of Truth and allow your brothers and sisters to be saved through your sacrifice. Come, My beloved children, I am calling out to you, this day, to see the Truth of this world, to see through its lies, its deceit. Come, follow Me. I Love you.   Patrick: Thank You, Jesus, I love You. http://www.thewarningsecondcoming.com/virgin-mary-so-many-souls-choose-to-ignore-the-signs-i-give/ Virgin Mary So many souls choose to ignore the signs I give Tuesday, January 10th, 2012 @ 08:30 pm  My child you must tell the world of the importance of prayer at this time. My children are suffering everywhere in every country. It is important that all God’s children unite at this time in order for the darkness to be finally lifted from the earth. How I weep with sorrow when those souls chose to ignore my visitations to visionaries on earth. So many  choose to ignore the signs I give to ensure that faith can be restored. So cold are their hearts, including those of priests and clergy who are blind to the truth, that much time has been wasted. If they had only opened their hearts to the messages I have given the world then more souls would have been given the nourishment they needed. These are the final days when my words of encouragement must be heeded. Pray, pray, pray that my Son’s voice will be heard in the way it was meant to be. Did you not think, children, that He would not prepare mankind for his great mercy? This He now sets out to achieve through the conversion of as many souls as possible. His plans are complete with one exception. He needs more prayers for without such prayers souls will be lost to the deceiver. My child, my Son will bring much needed relief to His beloved children soon. In His mercy He will now also prepare the world for His Second Coming. Pray that all those who believe in My Son will open their hearts to the truth of His holy messages. If they listen and follow His instructions all will be well. If they ignore the warning, given to them out of pure love, they will deny others the chance of salvation. I plead for the generosity of souls to pledge their allegiance to My beloved Son by marching with Him towards the Glorious reign in the New Paradise. The messengers have been sent into the world for some time to help prepare the world for this great event. The final stages are now in place. Hear now the voice of My Son as He speaks with you.  Do not reject Him.

After the global confession, when most of humanity will be given special graces and blessings, I will prepare the way for My Second Coming. Mankind must accept that the time for this great event is almost upon them. Waste no time in preparing your souls and those of your family for My Glorious Return. My Second Coming will bring to an end the torment you have endured for thousands of years on earth. So great is this Glorious event that no man will fail to gasp in wonder and astonishment as I appear in the skies. You of this generation have been chosen to benefit from this journey with me into My New Paradise, during the Era of Peace,  over which I will reign. No one must be excluded. Not one soul must be allowed to fall through the net. It is My greatest desire to bring you all with Me into My Kingdom. This is the glory which mankind has waited for since My death on the cross. For those of you who turn a blind eye to My pleas I urge you to begin preparing now. My time is drawing close. I have now sent my final messenger into the world to help you prepare your souls. This has been prophesised. Do not ignore My warning because if you do you are not awake and you will fail to prepare adequately. I will impart many messages from now on so that the world is ready to accept Me as their Ruler. Your beloved Jesus Redeemer of all Mankind

Fr. Doucette: 872] Sat, Nov 26, 2011: Our Blessed Mother at the Cross of Jesus The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr. Saturday, November 26, 2011   Our Blessed Mother at the Cross of Jesus Dear Friends, When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his clothes and divided them into four shares, a share for each soldier. They also took his tunic, but the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from the top down. So they said to one another, "Let's not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it will be," in order that the passage of scripture might be fulfilled that says: "They divided my garments among them, and for my vesture they cast lots." This is what the soldiers did. Standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala. When Jesus saw his mother  and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son." Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother." And from that hour the disciple took her into his home. (Passage from the Gospel of St. John 19:23-27) (Below you will find the message of Our Blessed Mother given to Father Melvin. She spoke to him these words:) "As the Gospels reveal, I followed My Son, Jesus, along the Way of the Cross right up to the place of His Crucifixion. My Heart was in great agony at seeing Him in such suffering. He was bleeding all over His body and was very weak as He fell three times on the way to Calvary. I met Him at one point and tears came to My eyes to see Him in such horrible pain. When He was nailed to the cross, I stood very near the cross and I thought I would die from seeing Him in such torture. The words of Simeon in the Temple, when we brought the Baby Jesus to offer Him to the Father, were indeed fulfilled. My dear son Melvin and all My sons and daughters living all over the world, I want you to contemplate the last words of Jesus addressed to Me and the Apostle John before He died. My Son, Jesus, told Me, 'Woman behold your son,' and to John He said, 'Behold, your Mother.' These are very important words as the Apostle John stood for every one of you. With these words I became your Mother for all eternity. You are My dear sons and daughters whom I love with all My heart. As My children I pray for you all the time that you will have the graces and strength to follow Jesus, My Son, so that one day you will be with us in heaven. Remember, your Savior is My Son, Jesus, who suffered and died for you to atone for your sins and to open heaven for you all. Remain close to Him." Father Melvin A SPIRITUAL WARFARE QUOTABLE 'AS IN ALL WARFARE, THE TWO ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS IN VICTORY ARE KNOWING YOUR ENEMY AND KNOWING YOUR RESOURCES.''  SINCLAIR B. FERGUSON  Holy Love November 25, 2011 November 25, 2011 Public "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate." "Today there is much commotion over a special shopping day termed 'Black Friday'.  People race to the stores to stock up on material goods.  The stores accommodate the mood of the season by opening long and unprecedented hours in order to gain more profit." "But I come to invite you to open your hearts to the storehouse of grace available to you in every present moment.  There are no special hours in which you are allowed to patronize this storehouse - the door to grace is always open.  All that you gain can be taken with you into eternity.  No grace given in the present moment will be the wrong size or color.  Each present moment offers the perfect gift of deeper holiness and salvation." "Do not be, then, so much a part of the hustle and bustle of the world and its allurements during this season." "Pause and take time to reflect upon the storehouse of grace in the present moment.  This is the perfect present." (second message November 25, 2011 Friday Service - For all those falsely accused within society, governments and within Church circles;  that all calumnies are exposed by truth Jesus is here with His Heart exposed.  He says:  "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate." "My brothers and sisters, as the season of Advent approaches, I desire that you take into your own hearts My own special intention;  that is, that every heart open to Holy Love;  then you would have peace in the world." "Tonight I'm extending to you My Blessing of Divine Love." Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 26 - SURRENDER YOURSELVES TO ME   Message of November 25, 2006  "Dear children! Also today I call you to pray, pray, pray. Little children, when you pray you are close to God and He gives you the desire for eternity. This is a time when you can speak more about God and do more for God. Therefore, little children, do not resist but permit Him to lead you, to change you and to enter into your life. Do not forget that you are travelers on the way toward eternity. Therefore, little children, permit God to lead you as a shepherd leads his flock. Thank you for having responded to my call."

Honor in Mary, at the foot of the Tabernacle, all the mysteries of her life,  for all these were stations, as it were, leading to the Cenacle. In Mary's  life there you will find the model and the consolation of your own life. In  the Cenacle, this august Queen kneels as adoratrix and servant of the Most  Blessed Sacrament: kneel at your Mother's side and pray with her, and in so doing, you will continue her Eucharistic Life on earth." (St. Peter Julian Eymard) Dear Friends, I would like to share with you some quotes from Fr. Zlatko Sudac, and Mirjana Soldo regarding the importance of living in this present moment.  In the 1999 Winter issue of Medjugorje Magazine, Fr. Zlatko, who belongs to the diocese of Krk in Croatia, was interviewed by the editors of Medjugorje Magazine. Here are some excerpts from that interview: "...God does not love you in the past or in the future. He only loves you right now. If you always live in the past or in the future, you will never experience the love of God." "...I asked myself and I ask you, 'Do I ever live in this moment? Do I ever live in this present moment?' I understood that the answer was no. I always feel guilt about the past and I carry concern in my heart about the future. It's the truth that I don't live in the present moment. But God is an experience of now. God is something to experience now. You can immerse yourself in Him only in this present moment."

"You're seeking spirituality. Do you know how to tell how spiritual you are? When the amount of your spirituality is equivalent to the amount of truth which you can endure about yourself without escaping it, this is a sign of deep spirituality. That's how transformation of the heart happens. Only truth can free us. And then we'll be true adorers of the Lord. We will adore the Lord in spirit and in truth." Take care and God bless, Mike (Sumner, WA) - from http://www.iipg-queenofpeace.org  (1800 members) -- REAL FATHER As the family was sitting down to dinner, Jennifer, who was in kindergarten at a Christian school, turned to her younger brother and then pointed at their dad. "That's not your real father," she said, startling the whole family. "Yes, he is!" Andy said. "No, he's not," Jennifer said. "God is your heavenly father." Then pointing at their dad again, she said, "That's your homely father!" Mother Teresa -  Who is the church? You and I. The church are those who follow Jesus. Meditations by Padre Pio - There are such sublime joys and such deep sufferings that words cannot express them. Silence is the last resort of the soul in ineffable joy as in extreme oppression.  Archbishop Fulton Sheen -  No one is better than the next! "The psychological reason for the modern fondness for news which deflates others or brings out the evil in their lives, is to solace uneasy consciences which are already laden with guilt. By finding others who apparently are more evil than we, we falsely believe that we are somehow better `than the rest of men' (Luke 18: 11)." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -  However, I asked my confessor what to do: whether I should continue to suffer this for the sake of sinners or ask the superiors for an exception by way of milder food. He decided that I should ask the superiors for milder food. And thus I followed his directions, seeing that this humiliation was more pleasing to God. (1429) Today, the love of God is transporting me into the other world. I am all immersed in love; I love and feel that I am loved, and with full consciousness I experience this. My soul is drowning in the Lord, realizing the great Majesty of God and its own littleness; but through this knowledge my happiness increases... This awareness is so vivid in the soul, so powerful and, at the same time, so sweet. (1500) I never cringe before anyone. I can't bear flattery, for humility is nothing but the truth. There is no cringing in true humility. Although I consider myself the least in the whole convent, on the other hand, I enjoy the honor of being the bride of Christ. Little matter that often I hear people say that I am proud, for I know that human judgment does not discern the motives for our actions. (1502) 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

26 - SURRENDER YOURSELVES TO ME Today Our Lady speaks of one of the primary messages of Medjugorje: Dear children, I wish to tell you that I have chosen this parish. I guard it in my hands like a little flower that does not want to die. I beseech you to surrender yourselves to me so that I can present you as a gift to God, fresh and without sin. Satan has destroyed part of my plan and wants to possess all of it. Pray that he does not succeed, for I wish you for myself so that I may continue offering you to God (Weekly Message August 1, 1985). And from Paul's first letter to the Corinthians: For whoever was called in the Lord as a slave is a freed person belonging to the Lord, just as whoever was free when called is a slave of Christ (1 Cor 7:22). Reflection: There is glory and joy in surrender to God. When we surrender to other masters we are crushed, shamed, and defeated. But when we give our lives over to God, we are glorified and find victory. An unknown poet knew the honor in this submission: "Make me a captive, Lord, and then I shall be free." When we abandon ourselves totally to God, we stand before him with nothing: nothing more, nothing less, and nothing other than his Divine Will. Richard Baxter, a great religious writer, died with these words on his lips: "Lord, what you will, where you will, and when you will." When we submit to God's complete and total control, we become "God-intoxicated", filled with his own life. There is no other way but the way of abandonment and surrender, as the Virgin emphasizes today. It can be hard, but it is essential to a fulfilled life. Application: In prayer today, live Our Lady's message: "I beseech you to surrender yourselves your selves to me, so that I can present you a gift to God." The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr.   Friday, November 25, 2011 The Sentence of Death Dear Friends, Pilate then summoned the chief priests, the rulers, and the people and said to them, "You brought this man to me and accused him of inciting the people to revolt. I have conducted my investigation in your presence and have not found this man guilty of the charges you have brought against him, nor did Herod, for he sent him back to us. So no capital crime has been committed by him. Therefore I shall have him flogged and then release him." But all together they shouted out, "Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us."  Now Barabbas had been imprisoned for a rebellion that had taken place in the city and for murder. Again Pilate addressed them, still wishing to release Jesus, but they continued their shouting, "Crucify him! Crucify him!"  Pilate addressed them a third time, "What evil has this man done? I found him guilty of no capital crime. Therefore I shall have him flogged and then release him." With loud shouts, however, they persisted in calling for his crucifixion, and their voices prevailed. The verdict of Pilate was that their demand should be granted. So he released the man who had been imprisoned for rebellion and murder, for whom they asked, and he handed Jesus over to them to deal with as they wished. (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 23:13-25) . (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Redeemer given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "I call you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living in every part of the world, to take time today and every day to come to contemplation with Me. See what I have suffered during My Passion. I was taken to Pilate, the Governor of the Jewish State, and although he did not find that I had committed any crime, he still condemned Me to death because of the insistence of the people who were prompted by the chief priests and the elders and scribes. They shouted very loud these words against Me, 'Crucify Him! Crucify Him!' So at the end I was sentenced to death on the cross. This was indeed the first Good Friday. On this Friday, My friends, I would like you to take time and look at the crucifix and see how I suffered with nails piercing My hands and My feet. I hung there for three hours and then died. I agreed to offer Myself in sacrifice to God the Father for your salvation. My suffering shows how horrible sin is that it caused Me so much pain and at the end death. Come and repent of all your sins and make your commitment to Me to do all you can with the help of My grace to avoid sin in the future. I bless you all." Father MelvinThe Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr.   Thursday, November 24, 2011 Jesus before the Sanhedrin Dear Friends, When day came the council of elders of the people met, both chief priests and scribes, and they brought Jesus before their Sanhedrin. They said, "If you are the Messiah, tell us," but Jesus replied to them, "If I tell you, you will not believe, and if I question, you will not respond. But from this time on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God." They all asked, "Are you then the Son of God?" Jesus replied to them, "You say that I am." Then they said, "What further need have we for testimony? We have heard it from his own mouth." (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 22:66-71) (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Redeemer given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "I bless you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters spread throughout the world. During My Passion I was taken early on the first Good Friday to stand before the Sanhedrin, the council of elders, and to answer questions. They wanted to know if I was the Messiah, the Savior of the world. I knew they would not believe if I told them I was the Messiah. Then they asked Me another question, 'Are you the Son of God?' I answered that I was the Son of God. At that they agreed to bring Me to Pilate and have Me condemned to death. My friends, you are Christians and you believe with all your heart that I am indeed the Son of God, the Savior of the world. That was the purpose why I came on earth sent by My Father. I accepted to suffer and die on the cross for your salvation. I call you all to believe in Me all the days of your life. I want to live in your heart and give you all the graces and strength that you need to conquer sin and to follow Me. Do not be afraid to suffer because of Me. I am always there to help you. I am your Brother who loves you." Father Melvin The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr.   Tuesday, November 22, 2011 The Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus Dear Friends, While Jesus was still speaking, a crowd approached and in front was one of the Twelve, a man named Judas. He went up to Jesus to kiss him. Jesus said to him, "Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?" His disciples realized what was about to happen, and they asked, "Lord, shall we strike with a sword?"  And one of them struck the high priest's servant and cut off his right ear. But Jesus said in reply, "Stop, no more of this!" Then he touched the servant's ear and healed him. And Jesus said to the chief priests and temple guards and elders who had come for him, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?  Day after day I was with you in the temple area, and you did not seize me; but this is your hour, the time for the power of darkness." (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 22:47-53) (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "I love you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters scattered throughout the world. It was out of love for all of you that I agreed to be arrested, to suffer and to die on the cross for your salvation. What was so painful for Me was that one of the twelve Apostles betrayed Me to the authorities. Judas had lived with Me for about three years and he had seen all the miracles I had done and he had heard all My teachings, and yet he could betray His Savior. My dear friends, every person who commits grievous sin acts like Judas and insults Me. You turn your backs to Me and cause Me great pain. You know how much I suffered during My Passion and death. Yet I would suffer this all over again to save you because I love you and I want you with Me." Father Melvin   Wednesday, November 23, 2011   Peter's Denial of Jesus Dear Friends, After arresting Jesus they led him away and took him into the house of the high priest; Peter was following at a distance. They lit a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat around it, and Peter sat down with them. When a maid saw him seated in the light, she looked intently at him and said, "This man too was with him." But Peter denied it saying, "Woman, I do not know him." A short while later someone else saw him and said, "You too are one of them"; but Peter answered, "My friend, I am not." About an hour later, still another insisted, "Assuredly, this man too was with him, for he also is a Galilean." But Peter said, "My friend, I do not know what you are talking about." Just as he was saying this, the cock crowed, and the Lord turned and looked  at Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, "Before the cock crows today, you will deny me three times." He went out and began to weep bitterly. The men who held Jesus in custody were ridiculing and beating him. They blindfolded him and questioned him, saying, "Prophesy! Who is it that struck you?" And they reviled him in saying many other things against him. (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 22:54-65) (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "I call you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living in the world, to join Me in My Passion. I was arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane and taken to the house of the high priest and there I was mocked, beaten and blindfolded. Meanwhile Peter was in the courtyard sitting around a fire and three times they said that he was one of the disciples of Jesus. Every time he denied this, saying that he did not know Me. When the cock crowed, then Peter remembered what I had told him at the end of the Last Supper. Then he went out and repented in tears. My friends, please learn from Peter. He committed sin but when he realized what he had done he cried. You too are sinners but what is important is that you repent of all your sins and I will absolve you through the Sacrament of Penance. I suffered to take away all your sins and so if you are sorry for what you did, all those sins will be taken  away. You will indeed be My friend and I will bless you with love and many graces. I love you all."

Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 24 - CONSECRATION TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY Come to the foot of the altar. Here graces will be showered upon all, great and little, who ask for them. Graces will especially be showered upon those who ask for them." (Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal to St. Catherine Laboure).

Mother Teresa - Jesus knows the countless hungers of man, and He gives of Himself. What a gift! What proof of His love! What assurance for us! Padre Pio - I hate sin! Our country would be fortunate if, as mother of our rights, it would perfect the laws and customs in the light of honesty and Christian principles.  Archbishop Fulton Sheen -  If you want freedom, exercise your free will as God wills "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." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -  Bring to me the meek and humble souls and the souls of little children, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as earthly Angels, who would keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole torrents of grace. Only the humble soul is able to receive My grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence. (1220) O humility, lovely flower, I see how few souls possess you. Is it because you are so beautiful and at the same time so difficult to attain? O yes, it is both the one and the other. Even God takes great pleasure in her. The floodgates of heaven are open to a humble soul, and a sea of graces flows down upon her. O how beautiful is a humble soul! From her heart, as from a censer, rises a varied and most pleasing fragrance which breaks through the skies and reaches God himself, filling His Most Sacred Heart with joy. God refuses nothing to such a soul; she is all-powerful and influences the destiny of the whole world. God raises such a soul up to His very throne, and the more she humbles herself, the more God stoops down to her, pursuing her with His graces and accompanying her at every moment with His omnipotence. Such a soul is most deeply united with God. O humility, strike deep roots in my whole being. O Virgin most pure, but also most humble, help me to attain deep humility. Now I understand why there are so few saints; it is because so few souls are deeply humble.

Beyer, Ave Maria Press. NOV 24 - CONSECRATION TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY Given to the young locutionists, Jelena and Mirijana: I give you my heart. Accept it! I do not wish to distress you, nor to stop talking to you, but know that I cannot stay always with you. You must realize this. In the meantime, I wish to be constantly with you, with the heart. It is necessary to pray a great deal, and not to say, "If we have not prayed today, it is nothing serious" (Locutionists  Jelena & Mirijana October 29, 1983). And from Luke's gospel: But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart (Lk 2:19). Reflection: Our Lady had spoken of her heart and her love for us many times in Medjugorje. "Consecrate yourself to the Immaculate Heart," she said in August of 1983. And in December of the same year: "Tomorrow [Feast of the Immaculate Conception] will be a truly blessed day for you, if every moment is consecrated to my Immaculate Heart." "My heart is full of grace and love. My heart is the gift I give you," she said in June of 1987. There is great peace as well as great power in the consecration, for as we give our hearts and lives to the Blessed Mother, she gives her own life and all that this entails to us. Application: Putting Our Lady's words into action, let us now consecrate ourselves to the Immaculate Heart, using the prayer she dictated to Jelena for that purpose: O Immaculate Heart of Mary, overflowing with goodness, show us your love. May the flame of your heart, O Mary, descend upon all people. We love you so very much. Impress true love in our hearts. May our hearts yearn for you. O Mary, sweet and humble of heart. Remember us even when we sin. You know that we are all sinners. Through your most sacred and motherly heart, heal us of every spiritual illness. Make us capable of realizing the beauty of your maternal heart, and in this way, may we be converted by the flame of your heart. Amen Holy Love Nov.24, 2011 November 24, 2011 Thanksgiving Day (U.S.A.) "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate."

ELIZABETH ELLIOTT http://www.thewarningsecondcoming.com/the-world-will-be-changed-forever/ The world will be changed forever Thursday, November 24th, 2011 @ 09:00 pm  My dearly beloved daughter do not fear for the time is upon you and the whole world. This journey has been intense for you My daughter during what has been such a short period of time. You have obeyed My Holy Will right from the start although you had your doubts. Despite being mocked in certain quarters and, in particular, by those who profess to be holy disciples of Mine and that of My beloved Mother,  you have never hesitated in imparting My holy word to the world.  Ignore all this hurt for it has now passed. Now that I come with My great mercy all My children with true faith will fall in humble thanksgiving to welcome Me and accept My mercy. The truth will now be revealed. Rise all of you and await with joy My arrival. The world will be changed forever. Remember it is because of My deep love for all of you, including those of you who mock My holy word or who deny Me, that I come to save you once again. Your Saviour and Redeemer Jesus Christ http://wingsofprophecy.blogspot.com/   Thursday, November 10, 2011 Change Is Coming I  had a really restless last evening and woke up in the wee hours of the morning and could not go back to sleep, even after praying. I found out today that many others also felt it, so I began to seek the Lord about what we were sensing. This is what He said.   This land has known a time of ease and prosperity and prosperity made fools of many who found the world too alluring to resist. I shall began to tear down the false gods My people have chosen over Me and reveal their powerlessness one by one.   Some of you will weep as you see your false gods destroyed but this must be done, that you may know Me as the one true living God. Your false gods are only illusions the enemy has devised to steal your worship away from Me.   Many of you have felt a stirring in the spirit of late. You have felt weeping in your soul for the lost, those who do not know Me. You have felt My grief at those who will be lost in the end.   The time has come for My judgments to be rendered in the earth. Many lives shall be lost in what is coming. Many souls will be lost to the enemy if My people do not obey Me in this time. I desire My people would pray focused prayers - for the lost, for their cities, for their nations, that I may show mercy. If My people do not obey Me, some of the lost will be among their own families and loved ones. They shall suffer greatly for their lack of obedience in this time.   Tell them. Tell them I am coming. Tell them to be ready to hear My commands. Tell them to start praying and not cease until it is over. Tell them I am coming.   You shall see fearful sights. Men's hearts truly will fail them in what they see. A change is coming. Things will not ever go back the way they were after this change. This change will not appear the way you think it will. It will come softly, but it is a big change, behind the scenes, and the impact will be high. The change will not be evident immediately, but over time. Once it has taken place, however, it will not revert. You will not be able to miss this change once it has taken place, and you will know what it is.   You must tell My people how to prepare for this change. Tell them I love them (I heard such incredible sadness and grief in His voice when He said that He loves us!) Tell them My judgments are righteous and those who are judged now have time to repent. (There are people in whose lives God's hand of judgment is already beginning to fall - I saw in my spirit that these were the ones He meant here). Those who are judged later will not.   Tell My people to pass before Me (I saw His throne in my spirit and felt He meant to pass before His throne by praying) and repent of every sin they know of they have and let Me help them. The time to turn from your sins is now - do not wait, My children! Do not wait, for time is much shorter than you think. Come before Me and confess your sins now for My judgments are coming to your land and many of you will not have time later. (I felt a really terrible heaviness in my spirit when He said that.) You must not neglect to do this. Even sins you think of as small must be confessed that I may forgive you now and you must turn from them. What is coming in this next year will create a rocky path for many of you to walk on, your times will not be easy. Difficulties shall abound all around you.   The changes you see happening now are only the very beginning. Some of you believe everything will return as it was and that it will be (what we call) "business as usual," but it shall not be so. Change is here to stay.   In coming months, you shall feel as if you are standing on shifting sands for there will be constant change. Some of these changes you may suspect are coming, others will be complete surprises to many of you.   It is time to move forward, My people, for time is short.   Psalm 96:5: For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.     Psalm 106:36: And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.   Luke 21:25-26: And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; (26) Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.   Joel 2:13: nd rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.   NEW...AMAZING!

My joy is tinged with deep suffering because of those souls who will reject My Mercy. You, My daughter must fight along with My army of those beloved children of the cross to save these souls. This is the prayer they must say to beg for mercy for souls in darkness.   “Jesus I urge you to forgive those sinners so dark of soul who will refuse the light of your mercy. Forgive them Jesus I plead with you in order to redeem them from the sins which they find it so difficult to extract themselves from. Flood their hearts with your rays of mercy and allow them the chance to return to your fold.”   Your beloved Jesus http://www.revelacionesmarianas.com/english_version.htm .  You'll find the message below a little ways down the page.  I located the seer via "After the Warning" website at http://www.afterthewarning.com/WebPages/BeforeTheWarning/MessagesFromHeaven/TheLightOfMary.aspx  which itself has a wealth of information.  See "Before the Warning" in the left sidebar and then go to "Messages from Heaven."  God Bless,     COLLOQUIUM BETWEEN OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST AND HIS BELOVED DAUGHTER LIGHT OF MARY OCTOBER 21, 2011   Brothers and sisters, in the Unity of the Blessed Trinity:   I have received this Divine Word, and I do not feel I should keep it to myself while the world drowns in its own unconcern.    As Our Lord well reiterates, it is not causing fear that moves us to attract souls, or what moves us to share this Word, rather it is that we all reach that Love that the Sacrosanct Trinity keeps for us, humanity.   If everyone cried out to Heaven for help, and did not deny what we should not deny, if everyone  would repent instead of taking advantage of Divine Mercy in order to sin,  if everyone instead of pretending to limit Heaven its power over all of creation, would recognize it, if man did not continue immersed in degeneration… How different would our future be!   If we would not massacre ourselves, not only physically but in spirit, with vain fights that do not lead anywhere but only to the disunity of the children of God. If we ceased to feel like masters of evangelizing groups, masters of the  People of God and if we ceased to divide ourselves… How different we would be!   A loving Jesus amorous of His People, that sees human stubbornness, that sees that His People do not awaken. A God that sees that His People humiliates Him, insult Him, profane Him…;   I feel that this is one of the few very urgent calls so that man does not continue forgetting that God is God and we are God’s children.   A call to the Church so that the Shepherds care for their flock, and speak to it of the sin that superabounds, and of the multiple masks it is disguised with by the great  multinationals and the governments themselves.   The Lord asks His Church for an instant of courage, and that sin be called sin, sin and not something else.   The Lord asks fathers and mothers of families for an instant of courage to illuminate our children, so that they are not lost. An instant of lucidity to the human being so that he/she makes a stop on the path. And to whomever the Word of the Lord does not seem right, let him reconsider and pray, that he/she comes out of his/her own misery, and begins a radical change, remembering that there does not exist a repentant sinner to whom Jesus does not open His Heart.   In this lies the great MYSTERY OF GOD’S INFINITE LOVE, and that is why man does not understand it.    My beloved Jesus has kindly shared His Divine feelings with me and has told me:         Man has misused the means I gave to him for his survival, turning them into a means of self-destruction, not only physical, but moral and therefore spiritual.   The cloud of violence spreads throughout all the Nations. And these in turn, reject obedience and purity, carrying pain to every Region, through natural means. Water maintains a great significance in humanity’s history. Water purifies, and in this instant it also purifies humanity, so that once sin is washed as much as possible from the Earth and taking it to its core, the decisive events to which I am going to refer can gestate:   Humanity waits for a being that says: “I am the antichrist,” and that proclaims himself as the antichrist. They expect him to appear making miracles. But the miracles he is already carrying out little by little through all the modern methodologies, such as technology, misused science, nuclear energy, projects to destroy the earth and the alteration of human biology. He has used the powerful governments to create his nets and strategies to manipulate the masses, leading them closer to war every time. His greatest appearance has been to carry out his plan to annul Me from every place and close My Temples. The following strategy will be to close My Shrines and places where My Blessed Mother appeared.   Humanity has succumbed to spiritual denial, to the denial of My Surrender and of My Cross. The vices of this generation are not fought with physical weapons. They must be fought with prayer, penance, fasting, offering, the Sacraments and the Holy Rosary. In this instant the battle is spiritual, not one of arms.   The world will live from anguish to anguish, heat will be taken to where it was cold and the cold to where it was hot. The animals, upon changing their habits and dying suddenly, will make man think, but men will remain without seeing reality.   A great part of humanity will follow closely the events that evil will bring forth. In the fury of the instant they will find themselves wrapped up in the seductions, and like robots they will follow the masses, incorporating into their life the seal of the wicked one, in an unrecognizable humanity, worn and aged.    The contaminated wind will bring death. My children will suffer a shortage, which would not be as dire if more faith existed and you would open yourselves to the help of My House.   My Mother pilgrimages without rest, and Her calls are not heard, but mocked and persecuted. The announcement of the Warning causes some human beings laughter, but this, children, is a truth, as My Mother’s Word that proclaims the Trinitarian decrees is true. When this happens, those who mocked this Divine decree will feel themselves be consumed in their own sin. We have called you to be aware of the seriousness of the moment in which you live. But like those who mocked Noah, so they will groan.   The Warning, cosmic and spiritual, does not wait, and it will be fulfilled. I invite My faithful Priests to call their sheep to reconsider and to recognize and to carefully avoid the sin that sinks, enslaves an leads to eternal death.    How many will give very scientific explanations, once the Warning has passed… and will continue in evil! A new lesson will be necessary then so that man is not lost even more.   My children’s faith will be tested and My Angelic Legions will quickly go to rescue you. I will not leave you, I will not leave you alone, I will remain beside those who are Mine.   Every instant has been shortened, preparing My Second Coming. I will come with glory and majesty, with all My Power, with My Legions… The Heavens will shake, the earth will move, the waters will be agitated, announcing My Coming to all of Creation, to all of Humanity.   Everything that exists in the Heavens, in the earth and under the earth, in the sea and under the sea, the stars and everything seen and unseen: WILL KNOW THAT THE KING COMES.   I call you to proclaim My Name, to love My Mother, to be blessing on earth for your brothers and sisters and for all of creation.   Humanity does not persevere in faith or in towards neighbor and causes My Heart and My Mother’s Heart great pain.   My Holy Remnant will be victorious lead by My Mother. My Church will triumph and purified from top to bottom, it will be renewed. Evil will not prevail against My Church. The just one will live forever and will come to My Table to dine with Me.   You, My dear daughter, make reparation, make reparation and unite yourself to Me in My Passion so that united, we may be a single echo of Love for all of humanity. Come to My Cross and in It let us make reparation for the sins of all men.     BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD WHO MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH.   Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 23 - I CALL YOU TO OFFER SACRIFICES "Make a daily Holy Hour in the presence of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament that Christ may reign in the hearts and souls of men." (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen)

St. Monica, Wife, Mother, North Africa, (332-387), Feast, Aug. 27 Wife of a pagan and mother of three, one a prodigal son. Through her devotion and intercessory prayer to Jesus in the Eucharist, her husband converted shortly before he died. Her wayward son became St. Augustine, due to her faithful perseverance in prayer.

Mother Teresa -  Love, tenderness, and compassion are real justice. Justice without love is not justice. Love without justice is not love.   Meditations by Padre Pio -  Why is there evil in the world? Listen carefully. There is a mother who is embroidering. Her son sitting on a low stool sees her work, but upside down. He sees the knots of the embroidery; the tangled threads, and says: "Mother, what are you doing? Your work is not at all clear?" Then the mother lowers the embroidery frame and shows the right side of her work. Each color is in its place and the variety of threads form a harmonious design. So, we are seeing the reverse side of the embroidery. We are sitting on the low stool.  Archbishop Fulton Sheen -  Promises of materials turns into imprisonment of self "Communism swept one-third of the world into the grasp of the Iron Bear simple because it promised pie in the sky after hatred had overthrown the existing order. The great fallacy of all revolutionary movements is that the value of great lives is nullified, either through persecution or character assassination, in the interests of fallacious promises and illusory hopes. Our world is slow to learn that those who turn out the lights of Heaven, bay that very act turn out the lights earth. Influences are born of moral stamina but promises, like spider webs, are woven from the bellies of materialism."   St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -  June 30, 1937. Today, the Lord said to me, I have wanted to exalt this Congregation many times, but I am unable to do so because of its pride. Know, My daughter, that I do not grant My graces to proud souls, and I even take away from them the graces I have granted. (1170) It so happened that I fell again into a certain error, in spite of a sincere resolution not to do so-even though the lapse was a minor imperfection and rather involuntary-and at this I felt such acute pain in my soul that I interrupted my work and went to the chapel for a while. Falling at the feet of Jesus, with love and a great deal of pain, I apologized  to the Lord, all the more ashamed because of the fact that in my conversation with Him after Holy Communion this very morning I had promised to be faithful to Him. Then I heard these words: If it hadn't been for this small imperfection, you wouldn't have come to Me. Know that as often as you come to Me, humbling yourself and asking My forgiveness, I pour out a superabundance of graces on your soul, and your imperfection vanishes before My eyes, and I see only your love and your humility. You lose nothing but gain much... (1293) Dailys - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html -  Quote of the Day Charity unites us to God... There is nothing mean in charity, nothing arrogant. Charity knows no schism, does not rebel, does all things in concord. In charity all the elect of God have been made perfect. -Pope St. Clement I Today's Tidbit The word "Eucharist" comes from Greek roots meaning thanks giving. 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 23 - I CALL YOU TO OFFER SACRIFICES Today Our Lady speaks of one of the core virtues of Christian life: Dear children, today I thank you again for everything that you have accomplished for me during these past days. I thank you especially, dear children, for the sacrifices you have offered this last week. Dear children, do not forget that I desire sacrifices from you so I can help you and keep Satan at a distance. And so I call you again to offer sacrifices in special reverence toward God (Weekly Message September 18, 1986). In Hebrews, Paul speaks of the effects of the greatest sacrifice: But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, "he sat down at the right hand of God," and since then has been waiting "until his enemies would be made a footstool for his feet." For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified (Heb 10:12-14).   Reflection: In Pompeii the body of a crippled boy was found with his lame foot. Round his body was a woman's arm, bejeweled. The great stream of fire suddenly issuing from the volcano had driven a terror stricken crowd for refuge. The woman had evidently taken pity on the cripple. Only the arm outstretched to save was saved itself. The arm of the Lord protects his people. He draws us to himself to save all of us. We are never too insignificant for his rescue. A saying goes: "If you were the only person left on earth, Christ would die for you alone." Every soul is priceless in the sight of God. Each of us belongs to the creator, we are his flesh and blood. His salvation is directed to every one of us. No one is left out. As St. Paul writes: "For as all die in Adam, so all will be made alive in Christ" (1Cor 15:22).   Application: With the sacrifice of Christ as our great example, let us try to live Our Lady's message today: "And so I call you again to offer your sacrifices in special reverence to God." http://www.thewarningsecondcoming.com/crusade-of-prayer-8-the-confession/ Crusade of Prayer (8) The Confession Tuesday, November 22nd, 2011 @ 10:30 pm I, Jesus your King and Saviour now present My prayer for confession. This prayer should be said to plead for clemency for the forgiveness of sin during and after The Warning.   “Dearest Jesus I ask your pardon for all my sins and for the hurt and injury I have caused to others. I humbly pray for the graces to avoid offending you again and to offer penance according to your most holy will. I plead for the forgiveness of any future offense which I may partake in and which will cause you pain and suffering. Take me with you into the new era of Peace so that I may become part of your family for eternity. I love you Jesus. I need you. I honour you and everything you stand for. Help me Jesus so that I may be worthy to enter your Kingdom.”   Your Saviour Jesus Christ http://www.greenscapular.org/   Apostolate of Green Scapular -private Message of 11/17/11 on The Warning  Jesus gave Anna Marie a private message on 11/17/11 at 2:30 a.m. regarding the Great Warning!  Jesus calls it the "Just Awakening" from His Father, "This will be the last attempt for my many to return to Me and turn away from evil in their lives."  Our Apostolate recommends all attend Sacramental Confession and remain in the State of Grace.  Anna Marie believes this may take place before Christmas, however, Jesus  never gave any date. (This note was posted 11/23/11) http://divinemercyillumination.blogspot.com/ Hope Does Not Always Come Easy   November 22, 2011 I want you to write a message about hope and the prayer life. Hope does not always come easy my child but it is quite a virtue. Hope can come at anytime day or night and sustain you. Sincere fasting and prayer can increase your hope. Hope will lead you to eternal life.  When contemplating hope, think about trust. Trust will lead you to hope. Hope in all good things. It will never disappoint you. My hope on earth is what kept me going. I hoped in my Father’s will and love for me. An ounce of hope will beat all despair. When praying for hope, know it may come gradually. Hope in the valley of your darkest fears. It will get you out. It will help you to rise above the darkness.  You will fear no evil. Advancement in hope may come with age. So know that your hope can always increase. This should give you much hope in itself. Hope is light and can heal a weary soul. And when you hope in me, I will never let you down.  It is not possible. Trust in me with all of your hopes and fears and I will give you rest. You must believe in my words for they are not in vain. Hope in me with all of your body, mind, and soul. Blind faith requires hope in the Lord.  This is what carried many of the saints. You cannot hope in this life. It will let you down. Hope in the next because it is a given. Hope in the fact that my love will never let you go. You are safe with me. Safe for eternity. Practice your hope in me and your faith will grow. I love you. Digest--FAIR USE RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL, FOR THOSE IN THE aFRICAN DIASPORA THAT WOULD OTHERWISE NOT BE SO EXPOSED. Fr. Doucette: 867] Mon, Nov 21, 2011: The Agony in the Garden The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr.     Monday, November 21, 2011 The Agony in the Garden Dear Friends, Then going out Jesus went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him. When he arrived at the place he said to them, "Pray that you may not undergo the test." After withdrawing about a stone's throw from them and kneeling, he prayed, saying, "Father, if you are willing, take this cup away from me; still, not my will but yours be done." And to strengthen him an angel from heaven appeared to him. He was in such agony and he prayed so fervently that his sweat became like drops of blood falling on the ground. When he rose from prayer and returned to his disciples, he found them sleeping  from grief. He said to them, "Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you may not undergo the test."(Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 22:39-46) (Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "Come and join Me, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living in every part of the world, as I undergo My Agony in the Garden of Gethsemane. I used to go to this place at night to sleep with the Apostles and so on Holy Thursday we all went to this place. I did not sleep but I went forward to where there was a stone and I fell on My knees and prayed. I was filled with great fear and anxiety, as I knew that the next day I would be killed. I asked the Father to take this suffering away from Me but I said that I did not want to follow My own will but His will. My suffering was so great that I was sweating blood and an angel was sent by My Father to help Me. My dear friends, I asked you today to take time to be with Me for I have suffered horribly to save you. Yes, I was whipped, beaten, forced to carry My cross and I fell many times on the way to the place where I was nailed to the cross and died. I accepted all this for you so that you could be saved and be with Me forever in heaven. Come, My friends, and follow Me every day and do not be afraid to carry your cross for every person has a cross to carry. Pass some time before My crucifix and see what your Lord and Savior underwent to pay the price for your sins. Now repent of your sins and I will take them away. I love you all."

PRAISE GOD, THANK HIM, DO THIS OVER AND OVER AND FOREVER AND FOREVER. AMEN Pelianito blog November 14 - 20, 2011 Thursday, November 17, 2011 During the MaryTV broadcast of Ivan's apparition: BVM: "Little one, I am sending you as a lamb among wolves, but you are not a lamb  without a shepherd. You are a lamb whose Shepherd cannot be defeated. Be at peace." Here I am Lord. Fiat! Same day during adoration after the apparition and mass: Jesus: “Be at peace my child. I have sent my Mother to you to call you back to me. Her  efforts have borne golden fruit in but a few, silver in many more, but some of you are  content with fruit of bronze or clay. Strive for the higher gifts, my children. You  will have great need of them as the days darken. Do not settle for clay when the  golden fruit of the Holy Spirit is offered to you. Men of clay, why do you hesitate?  My love can raise you higher than you can imagine! My love is the wind that bears you  up. My glory longs to enfold you, but you resist. Enter into my joy, dear children.  The peace and joy of heaven, the golden fruit is within your grasp. Pray, be  converted, offer your sacrifices and do it all through the perfection of the  Immaculate Heart. In this way the fountain of glory will be opened to you and you will  bear much fruit, the golden fruit of the kingdom. Does this surprise you, dear  children? Do you find it unbelievable? That is because your gaze is fixed on your  self. Fix your gaze on me, for in me all things are possible, and glory flows  unimpeded. Do not be an impediment in the flow of glory, but by your total surrender  to the will of God, become a living conduit of grace and glory in the world. Imagine a  spigot. It may be turned low, or higher or fully on. Let your spigot never be anything  less than fully on. Examine what prevents you from opening the flow to its greatest  capacity. Root out sin and unhealthy attachments. My children, let my grace and glory  flow! I long for it. I bless you my children. Ephphatha—be opened!” Jesus, glorious Lord of love, beloved of the Father, we adore you and praise your  glory. May all you desire be accomplished in us for your glory. Help us to root out  all that is in us that impedes the flow of grace and glory into the world. Jesus,  Beloved, Father, Beloved, Holy Spirit, Breath of Love, we adore you. Mother of God  intercede for us always. Amen. I asked for a Scripture passage for this message and was given: Mark 7:32 And people brought to him a deaf man who had a speech impediment and begged  him to lay his hand on him. 33 He took him off by himself away from the crowd. He put  his finger into the man's ears and, spitting, touched his tongue; 34 then he looked up  to heaven and groaned, and said to him, "Ephphatha!" (that is, "Be opened!") 35 And  (immediately) the man's ears were opened, his speech impediment was removed, and he  spoke plainly. Sunday, November 20, 2011 2 Peter 2:1 There were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be  false teachers among you, who will introduce destructive heresies and even deny the  Master who ransomed them, bringing swift destruction on themselves. “My beloved, my children, these are the days to test everything. Do not be deceived,  but take every thought captive to Christ. Keep yourselves pure and humble. Avail  yourselves of the sacraments. Read Scripture and the lives of the saints. Read holy  books rather than subject your soul to deception. These are days for caution, my  children. Spend your time wisely in holy pursuits. Do not give the devil a chance to  work on you. Work out your own salvation through prayer, fasting, and true conversion  of heart. If there is any pride in you, root it out. Indignation, anger,  self-righteousness, these are all manifestations of pride. Let the saints guide you on  the path of humility—most especially our pure and lowly Mother. Ask her and she will  guide you. Children, my peace I give you. Do not trade it away for a counterfeit. Rest  in me. I am near.” Jesus we trust in you and rest in your merciful heart. Mother most pure, keep us safe  from the deceptions of the evil one and never let us fall into error or serious sin.  Thank you Jesus for your gracious care of our poor souls. We love you! Amen.   MedjugorjeInspirationals] Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 22 - CONTINUE TO GROW Jesus Christ the King: "Has the tender love of a father or the liberality of a king toward its subjects ever reached as far as the love of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament?" (St. John Vianney). Mother Teresa - We are all called to be saints. We all have been created in the image of God to love and to be loved.   "How I hate this folly of not believing in the Eucharist, etc.! If the  gospel be true, if Jesus Christ be God, what difficulty is there?" (Pascal). Meditations by Padre Pio - Place all your worries in God alone, because He has the greatest care of you, and those three angelic children with whom he has blessed you. By their conduct, these children will be a consolation to you during your lifetime. Take care, not so much of their scientific as of their moral education. And you should take this very seriously, and guard it as the pupil of your eye. As you educate their mind with good studies, assure the education of their hearts, along with that of our holy religion; one without the other causes a mortal wound to the human heart. Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Himself to death in order to save others." Those who trust in God will avoid the venom of the serpent "The unfortunate characteristics of our day is that propaganda has taken the place of personal influence. Politics has become so primary in modern life, that the masses are more moved by promises than by fulfillments."   St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -Today, as God's Majesty swept over me, my soul understood that the Lord, so very great though He is, delights in humble souls. The more a soul humbles itself, the greater the kindness with which the Lord approaches it. Uniting himself closely with it, He raises it to His very throne. Happy is the soul whom the Lord himself defends. I have come to know that only love is of any value; love is greatness; nothing, no works, can compare with a single act of pure love of God.

To order email soroka@sasktel.net or 1-866-726-5865 Nov 22 - CONTINUE TO GROW The following was given to the young Locutionists for their prayer group: Each member of the group is like a flower; and if someone tries to crush you, you will grow and continue to grow even more. If someone puts you down even a little, you will recover. And if someone pulls a petal, you will continue to grow as though you were complete (Locutionists Jelena & Mirijana June 21, 1984). And from Paul's letter to the Galatians: So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest time, if we do not give up (Gal 6:9). Reflection: Sometimes we are lamps without light, extinguished, but with possibilities not realized. Well, I have come to light a flame in your hearts, should the disappointments you have suffered, the expectations that have not come true, have put it out. I want to say to each of you that you have capacities, often unsuspected, sometimes made even greater and more vigorous by hard experience. These words of hope form Pope John Paul II speak of a great truth that hope , far from being some vague, ethereal virtue, is instead a product of practical, learned experience. Experience is not just the best teacher; it is the only teacher. As we look back at our trials and hardships, we realize that, rather than being tragic and destructive, our difficulties have given us endurance, resilience, and patience. This is the direct outcome of going through trials. This is where hope comes from. This is where God sheds his love right where we always need him the most. It is why we have "unsuspected capacities," as the Holy Father says, why we have hope. Application: Today the Mother of God gives us a message of profound hope: in times of trial or suffering, we will not be crushed, but will recover even stronger "and continue to grow more and more." Today, give over to her any present difficulties, trusting in her help. His Plans Are Perfect    FOR ALL OF US WHO SOMETIME THINK HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING WITH US       His Plans Are Perfect My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9, NKJV "Take with you seven of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and two of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, and also seven of every kind of bird, male and female" (Gen. 7:2-3, NIV ). Just how big was Noah's assignment? We know that there are more than eighteen thousand different species of mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians today. If the number is doubled to include two of every kind, with several thousand extras added to make up the five additional pairs of each "clean" species, then double all of that to include any that have become extinct, the total figure is about seventy-five thousand animals! According to the dimensions given, when Noah had all the animals assembled on the ark, only 60 percent of the available space would have been occupied. The remaining 40 percent would be available for food storage and living quarters for Noah's family. It all worked, as impossible as it had seemed! God knows what He is doing! His plans are perfect! You can obey His instructions with confidence! Blessings, Anne Graham Lotz                                  Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 20 - WHEN MY SON WAS DYING Has the tender love of a father or the liberality of a king toward its  subjects ever reached as far as the love of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament?" (St. John Vianney). Sunday, Eve of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary As a small child, Mary was presented to the Lord in the temple by her  parents, Sts. Anne and Joachim. Pray "that from this Year of the Eucharist, they [priests] may draw the fruit of a renewed Love for the Sacrament they celebrate.  Through the intercession of the Virgin Mother of God, may they always live and bear witness to the mystery that is put in their hands for the saving of the world" (Pope Benedict XVI, Sept. 18, 2005).

Read and meditate on the following. Then whenever hardships arise just say  "Praise God" "Thank you Lord"

Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:10 - It is always astounding to people of small imagination that their ancestors could hate, persecute and kill saints. We imagine that we are  2000 years smarter than the people who put Jesus to death. We think ourselves wiser than the people who despised Lincoln, or St. Thomas Aquinas, or Joan of Arc.  But the reality is that saints often come to us in very repulsive forms, challenging our deepest and most cherished bigotries. They are antidotes to the popular poisons of the age. And because they are antidotes they are often mistaken for poison and hated for it. Jesus endured just such hatred. He and His followers were assured by all the leading authorities that His lot was with the wicked and that anyone who followed Him would share His fate among the "accursed" who hung from the tree of the Cross.  But God had an altogether different opinion. He called Jesus His Beloved Son and gave Him kingship, not only over heaven, but over the whole universe as well. We shall share in that kingship, if we remain with Him. And the paradoxical sign of our share in that kingship will be our share in His sufferings and the hatred of the enemies we are called to love and forgive. Even such hate cannot touch our union with Him. Mother Teresa -  Each one of us is what he is in the eyes of God.   Meditations by Padre Pio - Courage, courage, children are not nails.   Archbishop Fulton Sheen -  The treasures of self-sacrifice "The best influences in life are undeliberate, unconscious; when no one is watching, or when reaction to the good deed was never sought. Such is the long-range influence of a mother in a home; fulfilling of daily duties with love and a spirit of self-sacrifice leaves an imprint on the children that deepens with the years. St. Francis has done much to influence painting, though he was not an artist. Great artists have influenced millions to love beauty, though their intention was never to be so remembered." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -  I must never speak of my own experiences. In suffering, I must seek relief in prayer. In doubts, even the smallest, I must seek only the advice of my confessor. I must always have a heart which is open to receive the sufferings of others, and drown my own sufferings in the Divine Heart so that they would not be noticed on the outside, insofar as possible. I must always strive for equanimity, no matter how stormy the circumstances might be. I must not allow anything to disturb my interior calm and silence. Nothing can compare with peace of soul.  When I am wrongfully accused of something, I will not explain myself; if the superior wants to know the truth, whether I was in the right or not, let her find out from others rather than from me. My concern is to accept everything with a humble inner disposition. (792) I have experienced how much envy there is, even in religious life. I see that there are few truly great souls, ready to trample on everything that is not God. O soul, you will find no beauty outside of God. Oh, how fragile is the foundation of those who elevate themselves at the expense of others! What a loss!

To Nov 20 - WHEN MY SON WAS DYING On Good Friday in 1990, the Virgin gave this message to the visionary's prayer group: Dear children, I am happy to see you tonight. You know, dear children, that when my Son was dying I was alone with him with only a few other women, but tonight I am happy that so many of you are with me. Tonight, when you return home, pray a rosary in front of your crucifix and be thankful (Visionary Prayer Group April 13, 1990). Speaking of the crucifixion, St. Luke writes: And when all the crowds who had gathered there for this spectacle saw what had taken place, they returned home, beating their breasts. But all his acquaintances, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood, at a distance, watching these things (Lk 23:48-49).   Reflection: When the H.M.S. Birkenhead sank, Alexander Russell, a young officer age seventeen, was ordered to command one of the boats which carried the women and children. As they were pushing off, a sailor who was drowning clasped the side of the boat, but there was no room for even one more. A woman in the boat cried, "Save him! He's my husband."

Application: Today, simply heed Our Lady's request in her message: "Pray the rosary in front of your crucifix with great thankfulness."   A SPIRITUAL WARFARE QUOTABLE             ''OUR GREATEST VICTORIES ARE WON ON OUR KNEES             AND WITH EMPTY STOMACHS.''                  JULIO RUIBAL MedjugorjeInspirationals] Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 21 - THE PRESENTATION OF MARY As a small child, Mary was presented to the Lord in the temple by her parents, Sts.

"When I am before the Tabernacle, I can say only one thing to Our Lord: 'My God, you know that I love you.' And I feel my prayer does not tire Jesus; knowing the helplessness of His poor little spouse, He is content with her good will" (St. Therese, The Little Flower). Mother Teresa - We should realize that poverty doesn't only consist in being hungry for bread, but rather it is a tremendous hunger for human dignity. We need to love and to be somebody for someone else. Meditations by Padre Pio - Take comfort then, my dear lady, take comfort, because the sustaining arm of the Lord has not been shortened. Oh yes, He is the Father of all, but He is more so for the unhappy and even more so for you who are a widow, and a widowed mother. Archbishop Fulton Sheen - We must learn from the Humblest of Servants "Unconscious influence is never superior. As Our Divine Lord said: `I am among you as One Who serves' (Luke 22: 27). From that basic humility came the advice to His disciples, that one who would be greatest among them should be the least of all (Matthew 23: 11). At the same time, He was never so royal as when He committed St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Today, Jesus is bidding me to comfort and reassure a certain soul who has opened herself to me and told me about her difficulties. This soul is pleasing to the Lord, but she is not aware of it. God is keeping her in deep humility. I have carried out the Lord's directives. (1063) That beautiful soul who is spreading this work of divine mercy throughout the world is, by his deep humility, very pleasing to God. (1083) 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 21 - THE PRESENTATION OF MARY On this day when Mary was presented, or consecrated, to God at the  Temple in Jerusalem, she calls each of us to a consecration as well: Dear children, today I am happy because many of you want to consecrate yourselves to me. Thank you. You are not mistaken, my Son, Jesus Christ wishes, through my intercession, to bestow very special graces on you. He rejoices in your consecration to him (Weekly Message May 17, 1984). When we are consecrated to God and Our Lady, we are given a mission as well. From Isaiah: The spirit of the Lord God is upon me, Because the Lord has anointed me: He has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to the prisoners; to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn. Isaiah 61 :1-2 Reflection: Our Lady once recommended to the visionaries that they read an account of her life entitled The Poem of the Man-God by the mystical  writer Maria Valtorta (1897-1961). In chapter 8 of this work, Valtorta describes her vision of Mary's presentation at the age of three. As background: Having been childless, Joachim and Ann had vowed that if they were blessed with a child, they would consecrate her to God at childhood, when she would then reside at the Temple with other consecrated souls, to pray and glorify the Lord in a cloistered setting, until she reached maturity. In this scene from the book, the child Mary and her parents are at the entrance of the Temple, where the high priest has come to receive her: The high priest looks at the little girl and smiles. Then, he beckons to Mary. And she departs from her mother and father, and as if fascinated, climbs the steps. And she smiles. She smiles in the shade of the Temple, where the precious veil is hanging. She is now at the top of the steps, at the feet of the high priest, who imposes his hand on her head. The victim has been accepted. Which purer victim had the Temple ever received? Then he turns around and holding his hand on her shoulder as if he were leading the immaculate little lamb to the altar, he takes her to the Temple door. Before letting her in, he asks her: "Mary of David, are you aware of your vow?" When she replies "Yes" in her silvery voice, he cries out: "Go in, then. Walk in my presence and be perfect." Application: "Today I am very happy," Our Lady says, "because there are many who want to consecrate themselves to me. Thank you." Today, in the spirit of the Presentation, consecrate yourself again to the Blessed Mother, using either your own words or the prayer found for November 24. Message from Our Lord Jesus Christ to the Polish Prophet given at Holywell, Wales. Wednesday 16th November 2011.     " My dearest Children of the world, I would like to inform you of the dangers that you are in, in the present moment in the history of mankind.   To rescue you from this great danger your Saviour is prepared to come, for the second time, as foretold in My Holy Book.   My Father has completed His Holy Plans to rescue you from the darkness of evil and man.   My Bronia today finished her mission, given to her by My Father, for the Day of My Coming.         Do not worry, My Children of the world, your Merciful Saviour is victorious. You are all in the Bosom of My Eternal Father.     Pray and sing thanksgiving to the Almighty Father, Son and Holy Spirit."        Your Jesus, Saviour of mankind.     The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr.   Saturday, November 19, 2011 The Lord's Supper Dear Friends, The Betrayer When it was evening, Jesus reclined at table with the Twelve. And while they were eating, he said, "Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me." Deeply distressed at this, they began to say to him one after another, "Surely it is not I, Lord?" Jesus said in reply, "He who has dipped his hand into the dish with me is the one who will betray me.  The Son of Man indeed goes, as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed. It would be better for that man if he had never been born." Then Judas, his betrayer, said in reply, "Surely it is not I, Rabbi?" He answered, "You have said so." The Lord's Supper While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, "Take and eat; this is my body." Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins." (Passage from the Gospel of St. Matthew 26:20-28) (Below you will find the message of Our Blessed Mother given to Father Melvin. She spoke to him these words:) "Greetings, My son Melvin and all My sons and daughters scattered all over the world. Although I was not present at the Last Supper I know very well what happened that first Holy Thursday. At the beginning My Son announced that one of His disciples was going to betray Him. It was a shock to them but Judas knew what he had decided to do.  After My Son Jesus said that it was Judas, he immediately left the room and went out. After Judas left Jesus then took bread and said these famous words, 'This is My Body.' Then He took the cup filled with wine and said, 'This is My Blood of the covenant.' By these words, Jesus consecrated the bread and wine into His Body and Blood. This is the Holy Eucharist, the Living Jesus, whom you are called to receive every Sunday and on the weekdays if you can. Have a great love for the Eucharist and come to adoration often.  You all need to have a great friendship with Jesus, My Son. As your Mother, I call you to believe with all your heart that Jesus is truly present in the Holy Eucharist and He is there for each one of you. Remember the Holy Eucharist is the greatest gift you can receive today because when you receive this gift Jesus comes into your heart and lives there.  I want all My sons and daughters to go to Holy Mass regularly and to receive Communion every time. Repent of all your sins. I love you." Father Melvin Fr. Doucette: 864] Fri, Nov 18, 2011: Exhortation to be Vigilant The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr. Friday, November 18, 2011   Exhortation to be Vigilant Dear Friends, "Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise like a trap. For that day will assault everyone who lives on the face of the earth. Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man."  During the day, Jesus was teaching in the temple area, but at night he would leave and stay at the place called the Mount of Olives. And all the people would get up early each morning to listen to him in the temple area. (Words of Jesus from the Gospel of St. Luke 21:34-38) (Below you will find the Message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words:) "I call you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living all over the world, to avoid the trap that the evil one and his followers have set up to catch you. They want you to forget thinking about My Second Coming and instead to look for pleasure in the world. They are pushing drugs, alcohol, sexual pleasure, pornography and sexual films.  They hope by these you will forget about Me and you will not worry about sin. I repeat it again, this is a trap by Satan and his henchmen. Come out of this wrong road and return to Me your Savior and Lord. You have to repent of all your sins and to be people of prayer. Be vigilant at all times so you will not fall in the trap. Be close to Me so you have the strength to escape the persecution and the tribulation that is coming. If you do you will stand on the right hand of the Son of Man and be saved.  I call you to go to Church every Sunday and during the week if it is at all possible. Pray your rosary every day at home with your family and teach your children the moral law and the truths that I have left My Church.  You are to forgive every member of your family if they have hurt you in any way. You are also called to love your neighbor and to forgive them too. You are all called to be saints so you have to work with My help to achieve this great goal. I bless you all." Father Melvin Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr.     Tuesday, November 08, 2011 The Day of the Son of Man Dear Friends, Then Jesus said to his disciples, "The days will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it. There will be those who will say to you, 'Look, there he is,' or 'Look, here he is.' Do not go off, do not run in pursuit.  For just as lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be in his day. But first he must suffer greatly and be rejected by this generation.  As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the Son of Man; they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage up to the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. Similarly, as it was in the days of Lot: they were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building; on the day when Lot left Sodom, fire and brimstone rained from the sky to destroy them all.  So it will be on the day the Son of Man is revealed. On that day, a person who is on the housetop and whose belongings are in the house must not go down to get them, and likewise a person in the field must not return to what was left behind. Remember the wife of Lot.  Whoever seeks to preserve his life will lose it, but whoever loses it will save it. I tell you, on that night there will be two people in one bed; one will be taken, the other left. And there will be two women grinding meal together; one will be taken, the other left." They said to him in reply, "Where, Lord?" He said to them, "Where the body is, there also the vultures will gather." (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 17:22-37) Below you will find the message of the Son of God, who is Our Savior, given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words, "As I greet you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters scattered all over the world, I warn you to always be prepared for My coming. You do not know the day or the hour I am to return to earth to judge the living and the dead.  However, I wish to remind you never to believe a person if he or she gives you a day, or a month, or a year when I will return to earth. Anyone who utters a time for My return knows that it is false as it is written in the Bible. I could come tomorrow or in one hundred years from now.  No one on earth knows the time of My return. I ask you, though, to be prepared at all times so that I will not take you by surprise and you will be found in mortal sin. Remember I am the only Redeemer so all have to believe in Me and follow Me. In fact I often call you to strive for holiness with My help. If you imitate Me and do what I have told you, indeed you will be holy and you will be brought to your home in heaven.  Do not put it off, but work hard every day and you will be blessed. If you follow what I have told you, you will be on My right and I will take you with Me to the promise land. You are all My brothers and sisters and I want you all with Me. I give you the graces you need to advance every day. Cooperate with Me. I love you." Father Melvin Our Lady of All Graces Message for the week http://www.ourladyofallgraces.org/olmessages.php?idn=513        A MESSAGE FOR THE WEEK        The Arise, Jerusalem, Arise Ministry has decided to post a weekly message from Our Lady of All Graces archives. Our Lady of All Graces has asked all of Her children to take the time out to go back and re-read the messages because we did not heed the guidance and warnings expressed in these messages.          Although Our Lady has stopped giving private messages to Alix for the ministry, as spiritual director She is still guiding him and She also promises to be closer to us if we open our hearts and minds to Her. Everything Our Lady inspires us to do now is to help us to help you in your spiritual journey.          With the Holiday Seasons approaching, the AJA Ministry decided to post a message of hope during these discouraging times. We must remember that with God there is always hope.    STAY MOTIVATED TO PERFORM MIRACLES   July 12, 2011 Arise, Jerusalem, Arise voracious www.ourladyofallgraces.org Dear Holy Mother, Our Lady of All Graces, please pray for us, your children, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Amen My dear child Alix, Jesus is with you. He has told you the things that need to be done, because He intends to help you finish your work. It is very comforting to Jesus when He sees His people arduously busying themselves doing what He recommends.  This is being said so that you may know that your Father in heaven is prepared to honor His promise to you. The promise is the guarantee that your prayer will be answered, even as you progress with the task at hand. Dearest children, I, your heavenly Mother who comes to you as Your Lady of All Graces rejoices in the positive way you fulfill your mission which is to propagate the Let There Be Life Message to one and all. So far, the response is slowly coming.  As time goes by, surely the Lord’s Message will find its home within many more hearts than expected because, the Holy Spirit is at work calling all the people whose heart is already open to receive the word of the Lord to all His children all over the world. Dearest children, remember that you do not labor alone. Our Father in Heaven is working assiduously by your side to give you strength and perseverance. This is the beginning of what can be expected to become a massive and positive response to the ills of the nations of the world.  It means so much to Jesus that more people are continuing to honor God, the Creator so as to sooth His just anger. Let no one take lightly the pending warning of the fate of this nation and all the others no longer under God. Dearest children, would I come to you so often, speaking of disasters and ruins if this was not urgently needed for you to understand the urgency of the situation? I am the Woman who loves you as  if you were born of My very own womb, feeding you with My very own milk.  I am quite intent on protecting you, reminding you that you are to make every effort to succeed in protecting the nations of the world, and their sinners. I am also working alongside of you, guiding you through the Holy Spirit growing within your hearts, hoping that you will be able to spare the world the specter of major catastrophic events. Dearest children, there are already enough of you, even at this time, motivated to perform miracles and save lives endangered by the sinful ways this nation allows people in Government to promulgate very damaging laws without strong challenges. They place no resistance to the actions of unscrupulous politicians trying to gain votes at any cost, forgetting these laws are causing the ruin of this nation. Dearest children, some of you, not all, are called to be politicians. You need to be reminded clearly that today’s politics are no longer for people who consider their faith in God to be Sacred, something very precious to protect. To compromise with the world is to lower yourselves to the level of those who compromise with the devil, the fierce enemy of God. Dearest children, I call you to live your faith according to the teaching of the Holy Roman Catholic Church and categorically reject all that compromises the faith and moral standing of this nation. As you stand united, making every effort to cleanse the world of Demonic spirits, spreading their vices, you will be facing fierce challenges from the people of the world so controlled by these demonic forces. These Demons live within the hearts and souls of so many people on earth that, knowing this is enough to make so many of My dearest children lose the strength to resist their attacks. Dearest children, I am the Mother of all the children of God and I pray, pray and pray ceaselessly that My children may retain enough courage in the power of God to resist all that is in contempt of God’s will because, the life of many nations rests on this alone. Thank you, dearest children, for responding to My love and to the love of Jesus for all the children of the earth. Shalom - Shalom - Shalom...  Holy Love November 18,2011 November 18, 2011 Public Alanus (My Guardian Angel) says:  "Praise be to Jesus." "I tell you, the more you spend the present moment thinking of Heavenly things, the closer you are to union with the Omnipresent God.  This is God's Will for you; that the focus of your life and the center of your heart be on God." "No one can surrender his innermost spirit and be filled with union with God unless he first empties his heart of self and all worldly concern.  These are all obstacles to union with God." "God does not impose;  rather, He is always present - ready to fill the most destitute heart.  First, the heart must open." "Pray this way:" "Open my heart to a deep and abiding love of You, Heavenly Father.  I realize that this is the way to a deeper union with Your Divine Will." "Empty my heart of any worldly concern;  then fill me with love of You and love of my neighbor.  I know this is the lasting peace You desire for me and for all mankind.  Amen." ------------------------- November 18, 2011 Friday Service - For all those falsely accused within society, governments and within Church circles;  that all calumnies are exposed by truth Jesus is here with His Heart exposed.  He says:  "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate." "My brothers and sisters, today once again I invite you to realize that My Heart is an Open Furnace of Burning Love ready to welcome all of mankind." "Yet, My invitation is greeted with neglect and indifference.  This is why Heaven pleads for prayers for the heart of the world." "Tonight I'm extending to you My Blessing of Divine Love." Act of Reparation for World History This Prayer is requested by Our Blessed Mother for each day of Advent. ACT OF REPARATION FOR WORLD HISTORY [By Myriam-van-nazareth] Dear Mother Mary, Dawn of true hope, ever since the original sin, man has allowed the sanctifying effects of the sun from God's Heart to miss their goal. Within the souls who were created as trees of Divine Life, leaf after leaf is withering, and but few fruits still reach the ripeness of true heavenly food for God's Works. Because all Works of Divine Justice and Mercy, of God's Love and Wisdom, are timeless, their effects are like waves irrigating all centuries with the water of Divine Life.  Therefore O Mistress of all souls and Bridge between Heaven and Earth, I lay at Your feet the history of all mankind throughout the ages, and I beg You:  Bury in Your Immaculate Heart all sins, confessed or not, which human souls have committed against God and His creatures throughout the ages.    Bury in Your Immaculate Heart each expression of hatred, egoism, vengefulness, irreconcilability, discord, and any form of physical and moral suffering that souls have inflicted upon one another throughout the ages.   Bury in Your Immaculate Heart each occasion on which souls in all centuries have succumbed to temptations and misguidance in any form whatsoever.    Bury in Your Immaculate Heart all wars of all times, and all injustice and misery which have ensued from them.    Bury in Your Immaculate Heart each expression, throughout the ages, of resistance against the signs of God's Light.        I entrust to You: all blood which has ever been shed by human souls, and any act and any word through which human souls throughout the ages have turned themselves or others away from God's Law, from His Plans and Works and thus have surrendered God's Kingdom to the works of destruction wrought by the darkness.  O Mary, Immaculate Queen of Heaven and Earth, I consecrate to You all human souls of all times, all paths of human lives and any derogation from God's Law throughout the ages, and I beg You to wield the infinite power of Your compensating Love.  Please do immerse all of this in the redeeming Blood of Jesus Christ and in Your co-redeeming Tears, so that satan may even now be robbed of the indeterminable fruits he has reaped in the souls' gardens throughout the ages, and that the effects of his works of darkness may still be annihilated in the omnipotence of Divine Love and Divine Light.  For this pleading to be heard, and as an act of reparation for the innumerable sins of the world of all times, I surrender to You my entire being and my whole life in total, unconditional and everlasting consecration.    Our Father.   Hail Mary.    Glory be. S   Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 19 - WHEN YOU NEED ME, CALL ME "Do not, therefore, regard the bread and wine as simply that, for they are, according to the Master's declaration, the body and blood of Christ" (St. Cyril of Jerusalem). "If we truly understand the Eucharist; if we make the Eucharist the central focus of our lives; if we feed our lives with the Eucharist, we will not find it difficult to discover Christ, to love him, and to serve him in the poor" (Bl. Teresa of Calcutta). - Mother Teresa -  This is a sign of the joy of loving God: sharing that love with others.   Meditations by Padre Pio - May God's blessing accompany, sustain and guide you! Form a Christian family if you want a little bit of peace in this life. May the Lord give you children and then the grace to direct them on the way to Heaven.  Archbishop Fulton Sheen -  Words are cheap when there is no conviction behind them "Whenever we set out to give `good example,' we generally do not give it. The best example is given when we are off duty and are not acting `professionally,' such as the minister or rabbi or priest when he comes down from his pulpit, the womanizer after he has finished his discourse on the `necessity of recognizing the rights of women,' the politician when he has finished his television oration on `my profound interest in social justice and my love of the common good.' When Peter told Our Lord that though others failed Him, he would never fail, the Savior retorted that within twenty-four hours Peter would deny that he even knew Him. What we say is less important in the way of influence than what we do."   St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -  Jesus gave me to know the depth of His meekness and humility and to understand that He clearly demanded the same of me. I felt the gaze of God in my soul. This filled me with unspeakable love, but I understood that the Lord was looking with love on my virtues and my heroic efforts, and I knew that this was what was drawing God into my heart. It is from this that I have come to understand that it is not enough for me to strive only for the ordinary virtues, but that I must try to exercise the heroic virtues. Although exteriorly a thing may be quite ordinary, it is the different manner [in which it is carried out] that only the eye of God catches. O my Jesus, what I have written is just a pale shadow of what I understand in my soul; these are purely spiritual things, but in order to write something of what the Lord gives me to know, I must use words with which I am totally dissatisfied, because they do not express the reality. (758) Always and in all circumstances, yield the first place to others; especially during recreation listen quietly, without interrupting, even if someone tells me the same thing ten times. I will never ask questions about something that interests me very much. (789)   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 19 - WHEN YOU NEED ME, CALL ME In the first weeks of the apparitions, the Blessed Mother told the visionaries: Pray, my angels, for these people. My children, I give you strength. I will always give it to you. When you need me call me. (First Years August 23, 1981). And from Luke's gospel: When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders and rejoices. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, "Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost" (Lk 15:5-6). Reflection: One of the most popular stories of recent years is called "Footprints in the Sand." It is the Reflection of a person who is puzzled that, although Christ's footprints normally appear next to his own in the sand, as they walk together through life, yet when he is in special need or trouble only one set of prints can be seen. And so he asks, "Where were you, Lord, when I needed you most?" To which Jesus replies: "Ah, but there were only one set of footprints because it was then that I carried you!"   This is a thought of great comfort, and yet to be picked up and carried is difficult for many of us to accept. Thoughts like, "I'm too heavy," "I'm too embarrassed," "I'm not helpless," or "I'm not worthy," fill our minds. But eventually we have to admit: "I am too tired; I am too sick," or "I am too scared." To surrender and submit to the strong arms of a Savior humiliates the proud but brings joy to the weary. What keeps us from being helped is our fierce self-sufficiency. Application: Today, surrender yourself to the Good Shepherd in prayer. Be alert to others around you that need to be carried for a while in your own arms   A SPIRITUAL WARFARE QUOTABLE   ''JESUS PERMITS THE SPIRITUAL COMBAT AS A PURIFICATION, NOT AS A PUNISHMENT. THE TRIAL IS NOT UNTO DEATH BUT UNTO SALVATION.'' PADRE PIO OF PETRELCINA Jesus King of All Nations Devotions message of June 6 The Feast of Christ the King November 20, 2011   “Christ's kingship over the world can be prevented insofar as men and women refuse to let Him reign over their hearts.” - Pope Benedict XVI     Dear Friend of Jesus King of All Nations,   As we approach the great Solemnity of Christ the King, let us be reminded of Pope Benedict’s words to the Church: “Historical kingship does not matter to God; but He wants to reign in peoples' hearts, and from there, over the world: He is King of the whole universe but the critical point, the zone in which his Kingdom is at risk, is our heart, for it is there that God encounters our freedom.”   We are living in decisive times. Jesus King of All Nations has pled with each one of us, “My children, please return to your God.” “…and I will welcome you in, and will be a Father to you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, says the Lord almighty.” (2 Cor. 6:18).   I would like to share with you the latest and urgent message of Jesus King of All Nations to His Secretary when He prophesied a Great Chastisement.   Sister Dorothy Chongo wrote to me from New Jersey: "Thank you very much for this message.  I bought the medal a few years ago and I wear it all the time. I wish I could share with you the graces I received through this great Devotion of Our Lord. God Bless you.”   Urgent Message from Jesus King of All Nations!   Jesus King of All Nations gave His message [which is edited below] to His Secretary on June 6 by interior locution and guided her to the scriptural citations contained in the message that confirmed it. Jesus warns us of a Great Chastisement about to fall upon this sinful world in order to “correct the conscience of mankind as a whole”. This Chastisement will be an act of His Perfect Justice tempered by His Infinite Mercy.   Jesus asks us to embrace His gift of the Jesus King of All Nations Devotion. Through the practice of His Devotion, we will receive graces of conversion, healing and protection.   Great is the chastisement that is ready to descend upon this sinful world to correct the consciences of individuals and the conscience of mankind as a whole! My Sacred, Kingly and Eucharistic Heart which burns as a conflagration of Divine Love for mankind urges Me on to Mercy, yet the weightiness of mankind's sins compels My Perfect Justice to be poured out.   My Perfect Justice however is always tempered by My Infinite Mercy. It is indeed Itself an Act of Mercy whenever My Justice is accomplished for I AM Mercy Itself and there is no action either within or without the Divine Godhead that is not imbued with Mercy as it is part of My very Nature as God. It is in fact the crowning glory of all of My Divine attributes.   Those who are filled with My Spirit of Love understand well this Divine science but those filled with the spirit of this world, the spirit of self-indulgence and of prideful arrogance cannot grasp how the very Justice of God is in fact merciful. I correct My children out of Love for them.   Until the heart of man changes the world will not and cannot change. Greater and greater will be the catastrophes in nature which itself rebels against the sinfulness of the children of men. The earth itself writhes in horror at the weight of corruption and uncleanness it supports. It cries out for justice against its inhabitants.   Violence, wars and hatred will grow yet greater until finally mankind will bring upon himself a great punishment, then will follow the chastisement that will fall directly from Heaven.   Embrace My devotion of Jesus, King of All Nations for it is a great Mercy given by your God for these most perilous times. Contained within it are gems of all-manner of grace given through the mediation of My Immaculate Mother. Graces of forgiveness, healing and renewal of minds and hearts.   Why are My people not taking advantage of this gift of Mine?   Yours is the choice. I leave you free to accept or reject both My admonition and My gift.   Click here to read the complete message with its scriptural confirmations. http://jkmi.com/june6messageofJKOAN.asp   Pope Benedict XVI said, “We, and we alone, can prevent Him from reigning over us and hence hinder His Kingship over the world: over the family, over society, over history. We men and women have the faculty to choose whose side we wish to be on: with Christ and His angels or with the devil and his followers, to use the same language as the Gospel.”    Please accept the gift of Jesus and embrace His Devotion of Jesus King of All Nations to prevent His prophesied chastisements from nature, from man, and from Heaven itself. Please  order the remedies of Jesus contained in the Chastisements booklet, the Journal and the promises of His Novena and medal.   Jesus promised that each time we say His novena prayers, "I will mitigate the severity of the chastisements upon your country." (Journal  41).   Help Spread the Devotion   You can do as Jesus requested and embrace His Devotion, especially by hosting His Visitation Image; leading Holy Hours of Prayer for Life, Peace and Protection and by helping to spread what He called "gems of all-manner of grace given through the mediation of My Immaculate Mother." You can help spread the Devotion to Him in this time of mercy allotted by God.   Jesus showed His Secretary the many graces and miracles He will grant to souls who come before His Image of Jesus King of All Nations. She saw visions of miracles of conversion, physical healings, and the touching of each heart. He also spoke about His priests when He said, “My priests who come before this particular Image of Mine, will receive from My Sovereign Kingship a singular grace.”     Holy Love Nov.17,2011 November 17, 2011 Public "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate." "I invite you to understand that every soul in Purgatory and every soul that has slipped to his perdition, did not search out and embrace the truth.  In some way and in some area of their life on earth,  the truth was compromised, virtue weakened or betrayed, and Satan's lies accepted." "Untruth is never acceptable in My Eyes.  There is never a justifiable reason to live in untruth or to encourage others to do so - not to gain any merit in the world - reputation, power, money or control.  All of these are passing." "Today souls do not make an effort to be in touch with their inner spirit - to be united with the Will of My Father - and to embrace personal holiness.  The trappings of the world get in the way.  When this occurs, it is easy for the truth to be denied." "The soul sets goals for himself which are not in line with My Father's Will but are worldly in nature.  This, in itself, is an embrace of untruth." "My Father's Will is always that you live in and embrace Holy Love.  This is truth itself.  If you ask for the grace not to deny this truth, it will be given." - Our Lady's messages received by Darly Chagas 25 Sep - 1 Oct 2011 http://darlychagasmessages.blogspot.com/ September 25, 2011  Message of Our Lady - Mary, Full of Grace The Advent of the New World - Words of Our Lady THE TIME OF PREPARATION FOR THE PURIFICATION OF HUMANITY September 25, 2011 – Sunday Dear children, today, the day of the Lord, with much love and affection I come to bless you in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. United to the Holy Trinity, together we will get the real peace for the world. My children, I feel a great joy to find you gathered here in prayer responding to God's call to strengthen those who called and taught that with prayer, you can win every battle. Here in this house where God has chosen, He hath sent Me to help you praying with you and revealing the message that He sent you, which you must listen with an open heart, you should taste it with joy to be freed from hunger in the big time of tribulation that will come into the world. Therefore, you must always remember that the Word of God is Life, and Salvation. Listen, plant and cultivate in your hearts the Holy Gospel that reveals to you every day of your pilgrimage on earth. The Holy Word of God reveals to you today that you must answer His call, because He is calling you to conversion so that you may one day enter into His kingdom and live happily with Him. The Kingdom of God is near, rejoice for you will see to fall of your hands, the handcuffs that His enemy, the devil himself, put on you and bringing many to idolize the sin. Many children drop out of true happiness and become slaves of illusion, do not worry about the future of their souls. The Good Son is the one who stops and thinks about what needs, to repent of their sins and ask God for forgiveness. God is patient and merciful, still allowing time for all Christians to repent of their sins and hasten the conversion. Who do not rush, can be caught suddenly and struck with a terrible event and on that day will not be given to the man, more time to ask God for forgiveness of their sins. My children, listen to the Will of God, come all to help build peace in the world. It is the Holy Rosary and believing in the Holy Gospel that you will be comforted in the days of the tribulations that lie ahead. Let's get ready for the encounter with the Holy Spirit that will come soon purifying you and liberating of everything that keeps you in sin. Shortly after the coming of the Holy Spirit, you are going to prepare for the Coming of the Divine King, Jesus Christ that will come to establish true peace in the world. This is what I come to reveal to you today for your conversion. Convert, convert before it is too late, you know that one day may be is too late, because everything will happen in the blink of an eye. Pray, pray, pray for the Holy Father Benedict the XVI, for all the clergy, for religious men and women, for all mankind. Pray for the atheists and pagans, work, work, be bridges to Heaven and many will reach Heaven because your bridge was firm, did not collapsed. Pray for the Holy Church founded by Jesus Christ, unity and prayer, all firms in the faith, increase it every day, the faith that God has given you, but you must cultivate it every day leaving no doubt born in  the middle of it. Doubt is a weed that grows easily and mitigates your faith. God does not force anyone, but gives you wisdom so you can begin to cultivate faith and rip out the doubt that deviates you from the Way of  Heaven. The Way is only Jesus Christ, I am not the Way, I am just your Heavenly Mother, your Mediator, I give you advice that will give you growth in faith, hope and trust in God. Help the Holy Father in your prayers, he needs much help because the persecutions are increasing. God strengthens you if you want to overcome the difficult battles of your journey on earth. I love you very much and I cover you with My Mantle of Love. You Brazilians, trust in what I reveal, and so you will conquer. All nations, prepare, there is a terrible world event, stay alert praying with the heart. I appreciate your presence and My children who welcomed Me here in this house blessed by God. I count on your presence at the next meeting. Now I bless you in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, the Mother of Jesus Christ and the Savior of the world, Mary, the Immaculate Conception. You must meditate on today's Holy Gospel: Matthew 21: 28-32. October 1, 2011

Message of Our Lady - Mary, Full of Grace The Advent of the New World - Words of Our Lady THE TIME OF PREPARATION FOR THE PURIFICATION OF HUMANITY October 1, 2011 - first Saturday Dear children, with love and affection I come to bless you in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. United to the Holy Trinity, together we will get the real peace for the world. My children, I feel a great joy to meet you gathered in this home blessed by God to carry out the great prayer meetings to help save the world at the moment when the big and terrible things are about to happen and he (the world) is not ready to win. Today, a day dedicated to the souls in Purgatory, so they can move from Purgatory to Heaven, because they are releasing spiritual debts and can receive the joy to enter in the Eternal Home, I thank you much for your prayers for them and I tell you they are praying for you so that everyone pays their debts on the earth and have not to go through Purgatory. Every sinner must struggle to get to the Heaven, this is not presumed, want to go direct to the stairs to Heaven, the best place to repair the errors and ask forgiveness of God is here on earth, on earth, the climate is more favorable for reparation, but most leave it to pay in Purgatory. Oh! My children, how sad the time in Purgatory is! Make efforts now, repair, repair to avoid passing through Purgatory. Today is also a day dedicated to St. Theresa, she was so young, she was able to live in holiness, she is in Heaven and helps a lot to sinners. You must always seek help from the saints, do not do like your brothers of other faiths who do not believe in the power of the saints, who have special gifts, they do not let them to help those who need help. Look at the lives of the saints and see that it is not difficult to reach the holiness, just is enough that your hearts become humble and meek. My children, God's Holy Word takes you today to meditate on your mission to respond to His Call and do the works that He wants everyone to do before leaving this earth world in the direction to God. God wants holy deeds, deeds of mercy, He gives you the power to be merciful to one another as He is. A selfish person is not merciful, the person who wants to live alone to avoid being disturbed by others, also this is not merciful, then you need to know love, know to donate, know to contribute to a less electronic world and more fraternal. God gives you so many Gifts, but you are forgetting, because you are living in an age when man has become like machines. Machines cannot think, do not have feelings, no heart. But there will come a day when God will bring down the technology and people will have to use their mind, their hands and will have to learn from the overnight that need the help of his brother. The rich will need the beggar and the beggar will need the rich. All you're going to discover inside the heart that you should live like brothers, you have to start digging the earth for what to eat and drink. God will correct the rebellion of His children and they will have to get off the pedestal and be equal as those who were always poor. I come every day to talk to the world what God sent Me to say, and today especially, I am here to tell you: be faithful to your mission, take the Holy Gospel and know the Eternal Happiness. The hunger will pass, thirst, war, disease, and a new man will be born, a man obedient to God, humble and simple. The hour is approaching, you must fight for peace, do not let anything in this world take your peace away, be obedient to God and you will have all what you need. There is coming, a terrible event for the world and those who wish to lead the arks built to house people that are in place of danger, they can begin to prepare their families. There will be a great demand, but this concern is not necessary because those who believe in God will endure the suffering and even having to stay where they are because they will have protection. Once the secrets are revealed, the world is going to lose its balance, except those that are part of My Army. Be faithful till the end, you need not fear any evil, God is with you. This is what I reveal here in this message of conversion. WHEN FAITH INCREASES, FEAR is decreased, you can keep praying asking God to increase your faith, your hope in Him. Pray, pray, pray for the Holy Father Benedict the XVI, for all the clergy, religious men and women, for all mankind. Pray for the atheists and pagans, God will reward you. Pray for the Holy Church founded by Jesus Christ, try to remain in a state of grace to receive the Holy Eucharist, this is the best Food you need. Assist the Holy Father the Pope, it is approaching to him the hour of martyrdom. Help him to find souls for God. The persecutions will increase, but you must pray the Rosary to bring down all the persecutions. I love you so much and cover you with My Mantle of Love. Who wants protection, enter under My Mantle. Brazilians prepare, prepare, terrible storms come there for you. I thank everyone here today to pray for world peace, for peace in the family. I ask that you to call the missing, time is serious, come all to pray with Me to win every battle. Pray for all nations. Now I bless you in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, the Mother of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world, Mary, the Immaculate Conception. You must meditate on today's Holy Gospel: Luke 10: 17-24.   Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 18 - DO NOT GIVE IN St. Ignatius of Antioch, Bishop and Martyr (d. 107), Syria?Oct. 17  "Be careful, therefore, to take part only in the one Eucharist; for there is  only one Flesh of our Lord Jesus Christ and one cup to unite us with His Blood." Mother Teresa -  We need to work for Christ with a humble heart, with the humility of Christ. He comes and uses us to be His love and compassion in the world in spite of our weaknesses and frailties.   Meditations by Padre Pio - Jesus and your soul must cultivate the vineyard together. It is for you to pick up and carry away the stones, to pull out the thorn bushes. It is the task of Jesus to sow, plant, cultivate, to water. Archbishop Fulton Sheen -  To hype without sincerity is fleeting "Influences are of two kinds: conscious and unconscious. Conscious influence is one in which we deliberately seek to mold character or the mentality of another. This kind of influence is not always sound, it is  too closely related to advertising. Almost all the great impacts on the characters of others have been made indirectly, not directly. He who starts out to `edify' others almost always makes a fool of himself." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Today, I heard these words: You see how weak you are, so when shall I be able to count on you? I answered, "Jesus, be always with me, for I am Your little child. Jesus, You know what little children do." (722) I have understood that at certain and most difficult moments I shall be alone, deserted by everyone, and that I must face all the storms and fight with all the strength of my soul, even with those from  whom I expected to get help. But I am not alone, because Jesus is with me, and with Him I fear nothing. I am well aware of everything, and I know what God is demanding of me. Suffering, contempt, ridicule, persecution, and humiliation will be my constant lot. I know no other way. For sincere love-ingratitude; this is my path, marked out by the footprints of Jesus. My Jesus, my strength and my only hope, in You alone is all my hope. My trust will not be frustrated.

Nov 18 - DO NOT GIVE IN Early in the apparitions, the Virgin spoke to the visionaries of endurance: Do not give in. Keep your faith. I will accompany you at every step (First Years November 10, 1981). Paul also speaks of endurance: Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, so that they also obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. The saying is sure: If we have died with him, We will also live with him; If we endure, we will also reign with him (2 Tm 2:10-12). Reflection: Many years ago two men were on board a sailing ship, going back to their home on a far-off Pacific island, when one of them noticed a little grain of corn at his feet. He picked it up and examined it. "It's a grain of corn," he said. "If it were a sackful it might be of some use!! And he threw it away again carelessly. But the other man picked it up, put it in his pocket and treasured it until they reached their island home. Then he sowed it. It grew into a plant, and yielded a tiny crop, so small as to be laughable. But he planted that in turn, and the next time the result was enough to give a few grains to each of his many friends. So the crop grew, and in the end it yielded an abundant harvest. The little seed was the means of introducing corn to the Pacific islands. When the seed of faith first comes into our lives with its love and power and we feel its great energy, we treat it with great reverence. As time goes by, however, we may begin to take it for granted. We can get lazy, tired, and careless. When that begins to happen, we are in danger of sliding into lukewarmness. And so Our Lady says today, "Do not give in. Keep your faith;" and in Revelation: "[This] is a call for endurance and the faith of the saints." One of the great values of the Medjugorje messages is that they renew and energize our faith, guarding us from lethargy. As long as we heed the messages, our faith cannot help but deepen and bear an abundant harvest. Application: Simply offer the following prayer today: Mother Mary, your messages have meant new life to me. They have given me healing and hope, deepening my faith. Please keep me attentive and truly careful about what I hold most dear. Amen "Do not, therefore, regard the bread and wine as simply that, for they are, according to the Master's declaration, the body and blood of Christ" (St. Cyril of Jerusalem). "If we truly understand the Eucharist; if we make the Eucharist the central focus of our lives; if we feed our lives with the Eucharist, we will not find it difficult to discover Christ, to love him, and to serve him in the poor" (Bl. Teresa of Calcutta).

Mother Teresa - This is a sign of the joy of loving God: sharing that love with others. Meditations by Padre Pio - May God's blessing accompany, sustain and guide you! Form a Christian family if you want a little bit of peace in this life. May the Lord give you children and then the grace to direct them on the way to Heaven.

Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Words are cheap when there is no conviction behind them "Whenever we set out to give `good example,' we generally do not give it. The best example is given when we are off duty and are not acting `professionally,' such as the minister or rabbi or priest when he comes down from his pulpit, the womanizer after he has finished his discourse on the `necessity of recognizing the rights of women,' the politician when he has finished his television oration on `my profound interest in social justice and my love of the common good.' When Peter told Our Lord that though others failed Him, he would never fail, the Savior retorted that within twenty-four hours Peter would deny that he even knew Him. What we say is less important in the way of influence than what we do."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Jesus gave me to know the depth of His meekness and humility and to understand that He clearly demanded the same of me. I felt the gaze of God in my soul. This filled me with unspeakable love, but I understood that the Lord was looking with love on my virtues and my heroic efforts, and I knew that this was what was drawing God into my heart. It is from this that I have come to understand that it is not enough for me to strive only for the ordinary virtues, but that I must try to exercise the heroic virtues. Although exteriorly a thing may be quite ordinary, it is the different manner [in which it is carried out] that only the eye of God catches. O my Jesus, what I have written is just a pale shadow of what I understand in my soul; these are purely spiritual things, but in order to write something of what the Lord gives me to know, I must use words with which I am totally dissatisfied, because they do not express the reality. (758) Always and in all circumstances, yield the first place to others; especially during recreation listen quietly, without interrupting, even if someone tells me the same thing ten times. I will never ask questions about something that interests me very much. (789)   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 19 - WHEN YOU NEED ME, CALL ME   In the first weeks of the apparitions, the Blessed Mother told the visionaries: Pray, my angels, for these people. My children, I give you strength. I will always give it to you. When you need me call me. (First Years August 23, 1981). And from Luke's gospel: When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders and rejoices. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, "Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost" (Lk 15:5-6).

Reflection: One of the most popular stories of recent years is called "Footprints in the Sand." It is the Reflection of a person who is puzzled that, although Christ's footprints normally appear next to his own in the sand, as they walk together through life, yet when he is in special need or trouble only one set of prints can be seen. And so he asks, "Where were you, Lord, when I needed you most?" To which Jesus replies: "Ah, but there were only one set of footprints because it was then that I carried you!" This is a thought of great comfort, and yet to be picked up and carried is difficult for many of us to accept. Thoughts like, "I'm too heavy," "I'm too embarrassed," "I'm not helpless," or "I'm not worthy," fill our minds. But eventually we have to admit: "I am too tired; I am too sick," or "I am too scared." To surrender and submit to the strong arms of a Savior humiliates the proud but brings joy to the weary. What keeps us from being helped is our fierce self-sufficiency.

Application: Today, surrender yourself to the Good Shepherd in prayer. Be alert to others around you that need to be carried for a while in your own arms

MedjugorjeInspirationals] Medjugorje Day By

Day Nov 17 - GIVE ME ALL YOUR HARDSHIPS St. Teresa of Avila, Carmelite & Church Doctor (1515-1582), Spain—Oct. 15 She wrote, "I am quite sure that if we could but once approach the Most Holy Sacrament with great faith and love, it would suffice to make us rich. How much more so if we approach it often! Mother Teresa - The Scriptures tell us, "I have called you by name. You belong to me. You are precious to me. I love you." God Himself declares that we are precious to Him. He loves us, and He wants us to respond to His love.   Meditations by Padre Pio - There is nothing more nauseating than a woman, especially if she is married, who is fickle, frivolous and haughty. The Christian wife must be a woman of sound piety towards God, an angel of peace in the family, dignified and pleasant towards others.    Archbishop Fulton Sheen - The canvas of memories is filled by the brushstroke of our actions "With some measure of pessimism, Shakespeare makes one of his characters say: `The evil that men do lives after them, the good is oft interred with their bones" (Julius Caesar, Act III, Scene ii, Line 79). More hopeful was the poet who wrote: `Full lasting is the song, though he the singer passes' (George Meredith, The Thrush in February, 7).   Both, however, are in agreement on the importance of influence, either for evil or for good. Some can look back and fix the day when a good influence began and say with Dante: `In that part of the book of my  memory, before which is little that can be read, there is a rubric, saying `The new life begins." "    (La Vita Nuova, tr. by Dante Gabriel Rossetti). In the gallery of memory, some portrait is hanging to which one can acknowledge a debt of formation, or a fresh vision of life."     St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - O my Jesus, nothing is better for the soul than humiliations. In contempt is the secret of happiness, when the soul recognizes that, of itself, it is only wretchedness and nothingness, and that whatever it possesses of good is a gift of God. When the soul sees that everything is given it freely and that the only thing it has of itself is its own misery, this is what sustains it in a continual act of humble prostration before the majesty of God.    And God, seeing the soul in such a disposition, pursues it with His graces. As the soul continues to immerse itself more deeply into the abyss of its nothingness and need, God uses His omnipotence to exalt it. If there is a truly happy soul upon earth, it can only be a truly humble soul. At first, one's self-love suffers greatly on this account, but after a soul has struggled courageously, God grants it much light by which it sees how  wretched and full of deception everything is. God alone is in its heart. A humble soul does not trust itself, but places all its confidence in God. God defends the humble soul and lets Himself into its secrets, and the soul abides in unsurpassable happiness which no one can comprehend. (593)   My Jesus, You see how weak I am of myself. Therefore, You Yourself direct my affairs. And know, Jesus, that without You I will not budge for any cause, but with You I will take on the most difficult things. (602)   Dailys - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html - Quote of the Day We cultivate a very small field for Christ, but we love it, knowing that God does not require great achievements but a heart that holds back nothing for self. -St. Rose Philippine Duchesne   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 17 - GIVE ME ALL YOUR HARDSHIPS The following was given to Ivan's prayer group in 1990: Dear children, your Mother invites you to joy. Your Mother asks you to begin to live tonight's message. Again tonight, your Mother asks you to give me all your problems and all your hardships. Thank you, dear children, for continuing to live in prayer all that I have said to you (Visionary Prayer Group June 26,1990). And from Paul's second letter to the Corinthians:   But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness." So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities for the sake of Christ; for whenever I am weak, than I am strong (2 Cor 12:9-12).   Reflection:   Abraham Lincoln once said, "I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go." Most of us know the truth of Lincoln's words. There is hope in the fact that when we do sink to our knees, we then have something to support us. When we finally exhaust our own power, we can depend on the power of God.   We know that one of the best things that could happen to us, in experiencing a low point in life, is to reach out like St. Paul, who found God most powerfully when he was the weakest.   Application: A prayer for today: Most loving Lord, thank you for being there at the lowest points of my life. Continue to take my hand and pull me up. Amen   Medjugorje Day

HERE YOU

RECEIVE BLESSINGS How the Bridegroom Comes From this infinite Being in three persons I proceed, the Divine Word made flesh, the second person of the Blessed Trinity, equal to the Father and the Holy Spirit in power, wisdom, kindness and every other attribute. I come to embrace fallen humanity, taking on your nature to bring you up to heaven. Only a God could satisfy the offense to God, and love, love alone made me offer myself to the Father / for your good and descend into the womb of a Virgin, the straw of a manger, the sweat of a carpenter shop, the affronts, the sufferings and the humiliations of Calvary, to death on the cross and to be a perpetual victim on the altar for as long as there would be someone to feed on my body, my blood, and my life itself. God touched you, enveloped you but you could not come close to him! That is why I came to make myself Eucharist, to live at your side, hiding my splendor, descending into your heart to enrich and trans­form it. Creation, redemption, and communion are proofs that I am love, that I have always been and will never cease to be love. Come then to your Savior, to your Jesus, who has made himself bread to feed you. Come to the God of your hopes. Come, and like Moses, adore your God and Lord. VENERABLE CONCEPClON CABRERA DE ARMIDA (CONCHITA) St. Teresa of Avila, Carmelite & Church Doctor (1515-1582), Spain—Oct. 15 She wrote, "I am quite sure that if we could but once approach the Most Holy Sacrament with great faith and love, it would suffice to make us rich. How much more so if we approach it often!" Mother Teresa - Your vocation, as well as mine, can be summed up this way: to belong to Jesus, to love with the conviction that nothing and no one can ever separate us from the love of Christ.   Meditations by Padre Pio - The principal self-denial takes place in the home.  Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Two sides to Democracy "The growth of democracy has done much to do away with false social snobbishness and to keep men humble in their external relations. But it has also, from another point of view, weakened the respect for Goodness and Truth, inasmuch as the masses of people are generally inclined to  equate morality with the general level of society at any given moment."   St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - O Holy Trinity, Eternal God, my spirit is drowned in Your beauty. The ages are as nothing in Your sight. You are always the  same. Oh, how great is Your majesty. Jesus, why do You conceal Your majesty, why have You left Your heavenly throne and dwelt among us?    The Lord answered me, My daughter, love has brought Me here, and love keeps Me here. My daughter, if you knew what great merit and reward is earned by one act of pure love for Me, you would die of joy. I am saying this that you may constantly unite yourself with Me through love, for this is the goal of the life of your soul. This act is an act of the will. Know that a pure soul is humble. When you lower and empty yourself before My majesty, I then pursue you with My graces and make use of My omnipotence to exalt you. (576)   Jesus, You know how ardently I desire to hide so that no one may know me but Your sweetest Heart. I want to be a tiny violet, hidden in the grass, unknown in a magnificent enclosed garden in which beautiful lilies and roses grow. The beautiful rose and the lovely lily can be seen from afar, but in order to see a little violet, one has to bend low; only its scent gives it away.    Oh, how happy I am to be able to hide myself in this way! O my divine Bridegroom, the flower of my heart and the scent of my pure love are for You. My soul has drowned itself in You, Eternal God. From the moment when You yourself drew me to yourself, O my Jesus, the more I have known You, the more ardently I have desired You. (591)

Oh my adorable and lovely Savior, consume my heart with that burning fire with which You are inflamed. Pour down on my soul those graces which flow from Your Love, and let my heart be so united with Yours, that our wills may be one, and mine in all things conformed to Yours. May Your Will be the rule alike of my desires and all my actions. Amen -St. Gertrude the Great 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 16 - HERE YOU RECEIVE BLESSINGS The following was given to Marija and Ivan when they were on Mt. Krizevac with their prayer group: You are on a Mt. Tabor. Here you receive blessings, strength and love. Carry them into your families and into your homes. To each one of you, I grant a special blessing. Continue in joy, prayer, and reconciliation (Visionary Prayer Group June 24, 1986).   And from John's gospel:   Abide in me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing (Jn  15:4-5).   Reflection:   The great Russian novelist, Leo Tolstoy, told the story of a man who stopped to give alms to a beggar. To his dismay he found that he had left his money at home. Stammering his explanation, he said, "I am sorry, brother, but I don't have anything." "Never mind, brother," was the beggar's answer, "that too was a gift." It seems that the word "brother" meant even more to him than money. One of the finest things about our church is the care and concern we often have for one another. In a real sense, we all brothers and sisters. We have a stake in each other's salvation, and we have learned from the gospel to value and strengthen each other. Our church becomes our family, our fortress, and our refuge.   There is a wedding prayer that says, "Now our joys are doubled, because the happiness of one is also the happiness of the other. Now our  burdens are cut in half, since when we share them we divide the load." As members of the universal as well as the church, we double our burdens in half. We become a family, the Body of Christ, instead of isolated individuals.   Application:   Today, resolve in prayer to do what Our Lady asks of us in her message: to bring blessings, strength, and love into our families, homes and church.   Medjugorje Day By Day

EVERY

BARRIER WILL DISAPPEAR   "Acts of private devotion [adoration] are quite necessary if we are to receive in abundance the supernatural treasures in which the Eucharist is so rich, and to pour them out upon others, according to our powers, in order that Christ our Lord may reach the fullness of His power in the souls of all" (Pope Pius XII, Mediator Dei).

St. Gertrude the Great: "Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. AMEN." (Prayer of St. Gertrude the Great)

Mother Teresa - The fruit of our work, as well as the ability to carry it out, comes from prayer. The work that we accomplish is the fruit of our union with Christ. We have been called to give Jesus to the peoples of the world, so that they can look at Him and discover His love, His compassion, and His humility in action.   Meditations by Padre Pio - In family life have strong convictions, smile in the face of self-denial and in the constant sacrifice of your whole self. Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Those who trust in God will avoid the venom of the serpent "The serpents that sting us are from within and not without, we carry them in our own bosom - this is the tragedy. When the earthy treasures are swept away, those who trust in God have everything left."   St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - There will be no distinction between the sisters, no mothers, no reverends, no venerables, but all will be equal, even though there might be great differences in their parentage. We know who Jesus was, and yet how He humbled himself and with whom He associated. Their habit will be like that worn by Jesus during His Passion, and they will not simply wear the robe [He wore]; they must also seal themselves with the marks He bore: suffering and scorn. Each one will strive for the greatest self-denial and have a love of humility, and she who will distinguish herself most in this latter virtue will be the one who is capable of leading the others. (538)   Work. As poor persons, the nuns themselves will do all the work in the convent. Each one should be glad when she is given some work which is humbling or which goes against her nature, as that will greatly help her interior formation. The superior will often change the sisters' duties, and in this way help them to detach themselves completely from the little details to which women have a great  attachment. Truly, I often find it amusing to see with my own eyes souls who have forsaken really great things only to attach themselves to fiddle faddle; that is, trifles. Each sister, including even the superior, shall work in the kitchen for a month. Every one should take a turn at every chore which is to be done in the convent. (549)   Dailys - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html - Quote of the Day The greater and more persistent you confidence in God, the more abundantly you will receive all that you ask. -St. Albert the Great 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 15 - EVERY BARRIER WILL DISAPPEAR In this weekly message from 1986, the Blessed Mother spoke of conversion and reconciliation: Dear children, again I call you to prayer with the heart. If you pray with the heart, dear children, the ice of your brothers' hearts will melt and every barrier will disappear. Conversion will be easy for all who want to accept it. You must obtain this gift for your neighbor through prayer (Weekly Message January 23, 1986). And from Paul's second letter to the Corinthians: We have spoken frankly to you Corinthians; our heart is wide open to you. There is no restriction in our affections, but only in yours. In return I speak as to children with wide open hearts also (2 Cor 8:11-13).   Reflection:   In the second century, a Christian priest of Antioch, named Sulpicius, had steadfastly refused to sacrifice to the pagan gods, even under torture, and was being led away to be beheaded. This was the age of relentless persecution of Christians.   On the way, a secret Christian named Nicephorus ran up to him. He had quarreled bitterly with Sulpicius and now sought reconciliation. "Martyr of Christ!" he said, on his knees, "Forgive me, for I have wronged thee." \ But Sulpicius refused to speak to him, even at the place of execution. But when the moment came to kneel under the executioner's sword, he turned pale. " No, no! I will obey the Emperor. I will sacrifice to the gods. " Again Nicephorus ran up to him and implored him not to lose his martyr's crown at this last moment. But it was in vain, and Sulpicius went off to sacrifice. " Then I will take his place, " said Nicephorus. "Tell the Governor I am a Christian. " And so Nicephorus won the martyr's crown and Sulpicius turned coward, and all the Christians said it was because he would not forgive.   It is hard to know Christ if we cannot forgive and let go of the hatred and resentment we hold toward others. Pardon and peace go hand in hand. In life, little serenity is possible without the beauty of forgiveness.   Application: Today, pray that Our Lady may teach you to forgive and forget the hurts and bitterness of the past, that you may experience the fullness of Christ's peace.   Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 14 - THEY ADORE IDOLS   On October 15, while leading 100,000 First Communicants and others in Eucharistic Adoration, Pope Benedict explained that to adore "is to recognize that Jesus is the Lord, the center of our lives. To pray is to say: Jesus, I am Yours, I never want to lose this friendship, this communion with You." "My soul, if you wish to be intimate with Mary, let yourself be carried  between her arms and nourished with her blood . . . . Let this ineffable, chaste thought accompany you to the Banquet of God and you will find in the Blood of the Son the nourishment of the Mother" (St. Albert the Great). Mother Teresa - Lord Jesus, We know that you became poor for our sake. We ask that you make us to be poor in spirit, to imitate your own confident dependence on your Father.   Padre Pio - May the Lord bless you and render the family yoke less heavy for you.  Always be good. Remember that there are difficult duties in wedlock that only divine grace can facilitate. Always be worthy of this grace and the Lord will preserve you unto the third and fourth generation.

Archbishop Fulton Sheen - We are responsible for our own woes " By constantly seeking pleasure of self, the tone has been ruined. So many of our cares today are of our own making. Never before were there so many woes manufactured by our own hands. `Made by me and made within' could be stamped on most of the trials and difficulties that people endure. God gives us the strength to bear the sorrows of our own. Those who make their own trials are also those who never call upon Him for aid; those who have sorrows laid on them by God always do." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - This Thursday, when we were having nocturnal adoration, at first I could not pray; a sort of dryness engulfed me. I could not meditate on Jesus' sorrowful Passion. So I lay prostrate and offered the most sorrowful Passion of the Lord Jesus to the heavenly Father in reparation for the sins of all the world. When I got to my feet after this prayer and walked to my kneeler, I suddenly saw Jesus next to it. The Lord Jesus appeared as He was during the scourging. In His hands He was holding a white garment with which He clothed me and a cord with which He girded me, and He covered me with a red cloak like the one He was clothed with during His Passion and a veil of the same  color, and He said to me...Fix your eyes upon Me and live according to what you see. I desire that you penetrate into My spirit more deeply and understand that I am meek and humble of heart. (526)   After Holy Communion, I saw the Lord Jesus, who said these words to me: Today, penetrate into the spirit of My poverty and arrange everything in such a way that the most destitute will have no reason to envy you. I find pleasure, not in large buildings and magnificent structures, but in a pure and humble heart. (532) Quote of the Day To abstain from sinful actions is not sufficient for the fulfillment of God's law. The very desire of what is forbidden is evil. -St. John Baptist de la Salle   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 14 - THEY ADORE IDOLS The following was given to Jelena, the locutionist: Pray, pray! So many have followed other beliefs or sects and have abandoned Jesus Christ! They create their own gods, they adore idols. How that hurts me! If only they could be converted! There are so many unbelievers!! But that can change only if you help me with your prayers (Locutionists Jelena & Mirijana February 9, 1984).   And from Paul's letter to the Romans: I appeal to you therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God what is good and acceptable and perfect (Rom 12:1-2).   Reflection:   Human beings instinctively worship. We bow down and devote our energy and loyalty to something. It is our nature to believe in some important cause, ideal, or person. The tragedy is that we sometimes choose such false and unreliable gods. The first commandment of the law is " Thou shalt have no other gods before me. " Only the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, only the God and Father our Lord Jesus Christ is worthy of worship. Only the creator, redeemer, and sanctifier the only God is worthy of our devotion.   Only he can heal us. Wealth, fame, pleasure, power, or knowledge cannot substitute for Christ. These things may come our way, but not by worshiping any of them. Christ has said: " Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours besides. " (Mt  6:33).   Application: Our Lady has said that some of her children " create their own gods, they adore idols. How that hurts me! " She also gives the means to help: " That can change only if you help me with your prayers. " Today, then, dedicate your prayers to this intention.   Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 13 - ST. FRANCES XAVIER CABRINI "Our Father Who are in Heaven in the heaven of the Eucharist . . . may we in all humility and zeal make You known, loved and adored by all men in the Holy Eucharist . . . Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Eucharistic Kingdom. Rule Thou alone forever over us for Your greater glory through the power of your love" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).

Mother Teresa - Jesus offers His lifelong, faithful, and personal friendship, embracing us in tenderness and love.   Meditations by Padre Pio - Be totally resigned in the hands of our Lord, giving Him your remaining years, and begging Him always, to fill them with preparations  for a life which is pleasing to Him. Don't worry about useless promises of tranquility, enjoyment or merits, but present your hearts to your divine Spouse, totally emptying it of all other affections, except His chaste love. And beseech Him to fill it purely and simply with actions, desires and a will which pertains to His love, so that your hearts, like mother of pearl, do not conceive anything, except with the dew of Heaven and not with the water of the world. Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Fleeting self-praise is governed by fantasy "Our real good is that which we work most earnestly to preserve, and which saddens us most when we lose it. Hence the frequency with which we praise ourselves because of the money we made, or the oil wells we dug. As the sunflower turns toward the sun, the magnetic needle to the polestar, so the egotist turns to his fantasy. Such persons are really still infants, for the characteristic note of an infant is that it wants everything it sees and it cries when it does not get it."   St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - When a reluctance and a monotony as regards my duties begins to take possession of me, I remind myself that I am in the house of the Lord, where nothing is small and where the glory of the Church and the progress of many a soul depend on this small deed of mine, accomplished in a divinized way. Therefore there is nothing small in a religious congregation. (508) When my intentions are not recognized, but rather condemned, I am not too much surprised, for I know that it is only God who scrutinizes my heart. Truth will not die; the wounded heart will regain peace in due time, and my spirit is strengthened through adversities. I do not always listen to what my heart tells me, but I keep asking God for light; and when I feel I have regained my equilibrium, then I say more. (511)   The day of the renewal of vows. The presence of God flooded my soul. During Holy Mass I saw Jesus, and He said to me, You are my great joy; your love and your humility make Me leave the  heavenly throne and unite Myself with you. Love fills up the abyss that exists between My greatness and your nothingness. (512   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 13 - ST. FRANCES XAVIER CABRINI The Blessed Virgin speaks of humility today: Your humility must be proud. Your pride should be humble. If you have received a gift from God, you must be proud, but do not say that is yours. Say, rather, that it is God's. Our example of humility is Christ himself; as St. Paul writes: Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited, but emptied himself (Phil 2:5-7).   Reflection:   The American saint, Frances Xavier Cabrini, was originally from Italy; she founded the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart in 1880, and in the United States established schools, hospitals, and orphanages for the care especially of immigrants and children. She died in 1917 and was canonized by Pope Pius XII in 1946. Her life and writings exemplified the humility of which Our Lady and St. Paul speak of in today's readings. Application: The following Prayer for Humility, written by St. Frances Cabrini, would be appropriate to offer today:   Lord Jesus Christ, I pray that you may fortify me with the grace of your Holy Spirit, and give your peace to my soul, that I may be free from all needless anxiety and worry. Help me to desire always that which is pleasing and acceptable to you, so that your will may be my will.   Grant that I may be free of unholy desires and that, for your love, I may remain obscure and unknown in this world, to be known only to you.   Do not permit me to attribute to myself the good that you perform in me and through me, but rather, referring all honor to you, may I admit only to my infirmities, so that renouncing sincerely all vainglory which comes from the world, I may aspire to that true and lasting glory which comes from you. Amen.   Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 12 - WITHSTAND EVERY TRIAL   "If you wish to strengthen your faith, you must nourish yourself with the blessed Eucharist, which is the 'Mystery of Faith' and fortifies faith" (Francis Xavier Cardinal Nguyen Van Thaun). Mother Cabrini, and her sisters, made several Holy Hours of Adoration before the Sacred Eucharistic Heart of Jesus every day, despite their very demanding schedule. She said, "Pray always with Jesus, always remembering that a soul united with Jesus can do everything."Mother Teresa - It is a wonderful thing that God Himself loves us tenderly. Knowing this should give us courage and joy for living.   Meditations by Padre Pio - I beseech you, for the love of God, do not fear God, because He doesn't want to do you any harm at all. Love Him a great deal because He wants to do you a great deal of good. Walk simply, with certainty in your resolutions, and reject the reflections of spirits concerning your suffering, treating them as cruel temptations. Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Too many politicians can't be trusted because they lack humility "From the spiritual point of view, the basic trouble with people who were pampered early in life is pride, egotism or selfishness. Their complexes are due to a great extent to a want of practice of the virtue of humility.    They have developed the wrong treasures, and therefore the heart is in the wrong place. As Our Blessed Lord said, "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also" (Matthew 6: 21; Luke 12: 34). It makes little difference whether we possess the treasure or not; what matters is that we love it. In this case, the treasure is the exalted opinion we have of self, or having our own will satisfied. If this be the treasure, then all the affections, desires and feelings we have intertwine about our ego."   St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - During a meditation on humility, an old doubt returned: that a soul as miserable as mine could not carry out the task which the Lord was demanding [of me]. Just as I was analyzing this doubt, the priest who was conducting the retreat interrupted his train of thought and spoke about the very thing I was having doubts about; namely, that God usually chooses the weakest and simplest souls as tools for His greatest works; that we can see that this is an undeniable truth when we look at the men He chose to be His apostles; or again, when we look at the history of the Church and see what great works were done by souls that were the least capable of accomplishing them; for it is just in this way that God's works are revealed for what they are, the works of God. When my doubt had completely disappeared, the priest resumed his conference on humility.   Jesus was standing, as He usually did during each conference, on the altar and said nothing to me, but with His kindly gaze pierced my poor soul which no longer had any excuse. (464)   Jesus, Eternal Light, enlighten my mind, strengthen my will, inflame my heart, and be with me as You have promised, for without You I am nothing. You know, Jesus, how weak I am. I do not need to tell You this, for You yourself know perfectly well how wretched I am. It is in You that all my strength lies.

God is testing you through daily difficulties. Thus, pray to peacefully withstand every trial. From God's testing you will emerge more open and loving (Weekly Message August 22, 1985).   And from Peter's first letter:   Yet if any of you suffers as a Christian, do not consider it a disgrace, but glorify God because you bear his name (1 Pt 45:16).   Reflection:   There is a legend about a monk who was walking in a monastery garden alone, thinking of the Passion of Christ. It was Holy Week. As he slowly paced along, he saw something lying in the path, and picked it up. The voice of Christ told him it was the crown of thorns that he had worn.    He reverently placed it on the altar. Needless to say, never had Holy Week been so meaningful, for the sight of that crown of thorns made the monks realize the sufferings and love of Christ more than they had ever done before.   As Easter Sunday dawned, the monk rose early for his Easter prayers of thanksgiving, and came into the chapel. As the sun shone through the window, it played upon the altar and rested on the crown of thorns, but something miraculous had happened. There in the Easter sunlight the thorns had blossomed into a rainbow of budding flowers.   There are thorns of sufferings and trials in every life, and it seems that only a spirit of acceptance can bring peace in these situations, acceptance, and turning to Christ for solutions and healing, as the Virgin recommends today. Running in circles or complaining rarely helps. But recourse to the Lord of Peace always will. Application: Today, offer this prayer for times of trial:    Dear Lord, please help me to accept my trials and seek the serenity of your grace so that I might triumph over them, and not wear yourself out by straining or complaining. Amen. Fr. Doucette: Thu, Nov 17, 2011: The Coming of the Son of Man   Thursday, November 17, 2011   The Coming of the Son of Man Dear Friends, Jesus said to them, "... There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay, perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves. People will die of fright in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.  And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. But when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand." He  taught them a lesson. "Consider the fig tree and all the other trees.  When their buds burst open, you see for yourselves and know that summer is now near; in the same way, when you see these things happening, know that the kingdom of God is near. Amen, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have taken place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away." (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 21:10a,25-33)
