Luke 9:23

It is a time to ponder on, reflect and enter into the final days of My life on earth and with the help of My Holy Spirit to enter into My and taste of the cup that leads to salvation. Follow Me! Deny yourself even of legitimate pleasures in order to discipline your desires, wants and appetites. Pick up the daily cross of self giving and self sacrifice, embrace it; for it is only through the cross that you can have a share in the crown of glory.

I will keep you, guard you, protect you, watch over you, answer you, hold you, free you, and keep you ever safe in my love.

of the bread and wine I have prepared.

Do not deny yourself even for a day because you would rather indulge the weakness of your flesh and your will. The time is short; wake up from your slumber.  If my disciples are asleep  whom can I rely on! Wake up! The night is gone and the day is upon us. Wake up lest you fall prey to the enemy. Unless you eat and drink of the flesh and blood of the Son of Man ---- Mine, you will have no life in you.

Matthew 17:20

If only you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could tell that mountain to move from here to there, and the mountain would obey. Nothing would be impossible to you. 

---- Mine it is tragic that your faith is so weak. If you had genuine faith even if it were as small as a mustard seed you would witness miracles in your life you would experience your prayers answered not only for yourself but for everyone you pray for. But yours is a timid faith, it is a faith that doubts, it is a faith that is timorous and despite the fact that you profess to love Me your belief in My power to do the impossible for you remains a terribly ineffective thing. Seize My promises speak them aloud, speak them boldly and claim every one of My promises. Expect miracle and perform miracles in My Name take your gaze away from yourself and keep your gaze fixed on me if you want to walk on water. Believe that you can do all things in Me who strengthens you.

When He uttered the Word that is Light and Truth all that He came into being.  All is  sustained by the power of the Holy Spirit.  The utterance of the Word reveals and makes known that I in God am all powerful, I am all merciful, and I am the judge that will ensure that justice is granted to all in accordance with all that they have done.

Continue to bring your own needs and the needs of everyone else to Me . Pray with faith, hope, and above all be generous in the blessings that you ask for on everyone whom you pray for. Nothing pleases My Father and Me than when you pray for others. Continue to spend time before Me in the Eucharist and ask for whatever you wish when I am one with you in Holy Communion. Keep My Face ever before you and your gaze unwaveringly upon Me and you will always be blessed.

May my song give him pleasure,
as the Lord gives me delight.

Sometimes you struggle because your flesh is weak and you give in too easily; I do not tell you this to make you sad but to encourage you. You must learn to resist the flesh it will strengthen your will and you will gain mastery over it.

Prayer and the Eucharist will help you walk in the light of truth and darkness will never prevail or overcome you.

who daily bears our burdens!
Ours is a God who saves;

I am the God who saves; the Son of God who became the Lamb of atoning sacrifice in order to restore what was lost to you forever. This is love ---- Mine, that God did not hold back His only Son but gave Him up into the hands of sinners, in order that their sins may be forever wiped away from God's memory and from His all consuming wrath. Love saved you. Love found a way to enable you escape from the death and punishment you so rightly deserved because divine Love made retribution for your sins on the wood of the Cross. Each time you see My Body nailed to the Cross remember the price that was demanded and paid for in order that you may live.
