WORD OF GOD

Luke 12:4-7

I tell you, (------ Mine), do not fear those
who put to death the body and, 
after that, can do no more. 
But I will tell you whom to fear: 
Fear the one who, after killing you, 
is able to throw you into hell. 
This one you must fear. 
Don’t you buy five sparrows for two pennies? 
Yet not one of them has been forgotten by God. 
Even the hairs of your head have been numbered. 
Don’t be afraid! (My little nothing)
Are you less worthy in the eyes of God than many sparrows?

---- My own little one, 

Keep in your heart the words I speak to you today. You are precious in My sight and your worth is beyond the price of anything you can purchase in the world. Your soul belongs to Me as does your heart, your spirit, and our body.  Keep it chaste for you are the temple of My Spirit. I come to you and We make our home in you. Ask for greater graces when we are united in the intimacy of the Holy Eucharist. You don't ask enough. Ask for more. It delights My Father to give rich graces to all who ask in My Name.

Ask and you will receive full to the brim, shaken together, and spilling over. Ask, --- Mine, it pleases My Father to give you the Kingdom.

WORD OF GOD

GOOD FRIDAY OF THE LORD'S PASSION

Luke 14:11

For whoever makes himself out to be great will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be raised.


---- Mine,

You have only to lift your gaze to the Cross to understand the words of My Apostle to the Gentiles, St. Paul when he speaks about Me emptying Myself, becoming a Man, and humbling Myself even unto death on the Cross in obedience to My Father's will. I had to be raised high on the Cross of Salvation in order to draw all people to Me. This is why The Father has exalted Me and has given me the Name that outshines every other. Now, at My Name all knees shall bend in heaven, on earth, and under the earth, and every tongue will proclaim that I am Christ Jesus, the Lord, to My Father's glory. 

---- Mine, humility is the queen of all virtues without it you can have no other. Look through Scripture, look at the lives of all holy men and women, look at My Mother, look at God, and you will find that humility comes first. See yourself as you are but for grace and mercy. Pray for the virtue of humility and use every opportunity that is given you to exercise it, only then can you cultivate it and grow in it.

Use every occasion given you to wash the feet of others. To seek the last place, to hold your tongue and always speak gently not matter how difficult it may be and remember finally, that it is often better to be silent.

WORD OF GOD

Mark 1:31

Jesus went to her and taking her by the hand,
raised her up. 
The fever left her 
and she began waiting on them.


---- Mine,

I will always come to you when you call Me. I will take you by the hand. I will lift you up. I will heal you of all your infirmities both spiritual and physical. I will forgive your sins, I will give you help to overcome your weaknesses, I will reveal to you those areas in your life that you need to correct. I will strengthen you and help you. I will give you my hand to lean on. I will lead you, I will remain beside you all your days. 

On your part ---- Mine, once I have strengthened you, you are called to serve; serve joyfully serve obediently, serve patiently, serve tenderly, serve with kindness and humility and above all serve with great love and compassion. Judge not and you will not be judged. Condemn not and you will not be condemned; for the measure you use will the same measure that will be used for you.

I am the Lord your God there is no other.

WORD OF GOD

LUKE 9:44

Listen and remember what I tell you now:
The Son of Man will be delivered into human hands.

---- Mine,

Engrave the words I say to you today on your soul. Listen, this is the most important part of My Word to you today and over the next three days. Above all. ---- Mine, listen with your inner soul, give heed, be silent, stay still, and quiet your senses. Listen. The next part of My Word is, remember. Not just for now, or this day, or week, but for as long as you are alive. Remember. 

What is it that I am urging you to listen and remember? It is the words that I am going to speak to you now, at this moment, today, in your quiet time with Me.  This is what I say,"The Son of Man will be delivered into human hands. This the reason that My Father sent Me into the world. The instant sin entered the world, God, who loves you so and could not bear the separation that tore Him apart from the creatures He loves, planned to send His Son into the world to redeem it. I came into the world in obedience to My Father's will revealing all that He desired Me to.  When the hour arrived, the hour I set for Myself, to fulfill the Fathers plan, I gave myself up into the hands of all human beings emptying Myself completely to pay the ransom incurred by Sin.

It was a debit I did not owe,  you did, but you couldn't pay and your destiny was that of the damned for all eternity. Separation from God. I entered into the leprous world of the flesh which is the home of all evil desire when you are bereft of grace. I tasted death, drinking the Cup of Suffering that My Father held to My lips until I had drunk it to its bitter dregs fulfilling the Fathers plan of salvation in  its entirety and perfectly.  I paid in full, entering into your death so you could enter into My life,  be grafted to Me, become One in Me, and thus have a share in My Resurrection.

Listen, remember, recall, not only during these next few days as you enter the Triduum, but ask for the grace to be transformed completely into a new creation in and through me. So someday, where I am, you too will be. 

WORD OF GOD

Luke 12:50, 13:12

Whoever does the will of my Father in heaven
is for me brother, sister, or mother.

The one who has will be given more 
and he will have in abundance.
But the one who does not have
will be deprived of even what he has.


---- Mine,

Listen to what I say to you today. There is nothing more important in this life for anyone whoever they may be than this, to do the will of God. How do you discern His will?Through prayer, silence, listening, reading, meditating, and common sense. You can always know what is the divine will for you in every instance; the desire and the will to obey though is an entirely different matter. It is a matter of exercising your free will and this you can do for good or ill. You can choose to imitate your first parents in the Garden of Eden or you can model your life on My Mother. Which will it be? There never was any creature ever born of woman who was more docile to the  will of God. Take her for your model par excellence.

Regarding the other cautionary word I have spoken today, remember that it is easy to lose what you have been given through carelessness. Be vigilant, guard the treasures given to you, use them for My glory and the glory of My Father. Call upon My Holy Spirit and implore Him for the graces you need.  The more you use the treasures He pours into your soul, the more abundantly will He continue to pour upon you rich graces. However, remember if you take what you have been given for granted, grow lax, indifferent, treat my riches carelessly, even that which you have been given will be taken from you and given to others. Stay alert, be watchful, prayer constantly, and fear not I am with you always, always.

WORD OF GOD

Psalm 102:29,     Psalm 103:5

Your servants' children will dwell secure;
their posterity will endure without fail.

He gives fulfillment to your years,
and renews your youth like the eagle's.

---- Mine,

Fear nothing. Not the past, nor the present, nor the future. I the Lord Your God, am with you all the days of your life. Do not be anxious about anything but with prayers and supplications make all your needs to known to Me. I am here with you; before a word has left your lips I have heard and I will answer.  Your life and the lives of those you love are held secure in Me. Do not be troubled, do not be anxious, do not for one moment be overcome by the world  or the affairs of this worldly life, I am God and I am in control.  As for you, I will guard you and those you love as the apple of my eye. Be not afraid my little nothing, it pleases My Father to give you a share in My inheritance and it pleases Me to share it with you.

WORD OF GOD

Psalm 17:8

Keep me as the apple of your eye;

under the shadow of your wings hide me.

---- Mine,

I am your Rock, your Fortress, your Deliverer. Trust Me, I will never disappoint you. Call on My Name and I will hasten to help you. Do not be troubled or anxious about anything for the God of heaven and earth is Your Lord, and your Savior. I keep you close to My Heart. I shelter you in it, I will keep you safe until the storms of life pass. I will shelter you under My mighty protection. Remember I am God and not man is there anything I cannot do? Have confidence little one, it pleases My Father to give you a share of the Kingdom of heaven. Remain in Me and I will remain in you always. Now be still and know that I am the Lord your God you are Mine.

WORD OF GOD

John 3:16

Yes, God so loved the world 
that he gave his only Son 
that whoever believes in him may not be lost, 
but may have eternal life.

Yes, ---- Mine,

As you approach the final week in Lent beginning with Palm Sunday, I desire you to ask for grace to enter into My Passion, so you can experience a little taste of what Love was prepared to Sacrifice in order to reveal to you the extent of the Father's love. What is the measure of true love? The answer comes from the Cross. Lift your eyes and gaze upon Me; Love impaled itself to the Tree of Life in order to crush the head of Satan, destroy the sinful cravings of the flesh, and the deceitful wiles of the world. The three obstacles that hinder all from receiving the inheritance that you were created for. 

Do not let your heart be troubled or dismayed, be anxious for nothing; walk with the confidence of a child of God. In the Blood of the Lamb you are victorious, in the power of My Spirit you are invincible, a child of the Father because you are grafted to Me; making you priest, prophet, and king. Lift up your head; walk with the confidence that comes from knowing who you are and the price that was paid to make it possible.

Be not afraid.

WORD OF GOD

Luke 10:22, 41-42

I have been given all things by my Father, so that no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son, and he to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

 “Martha, Martha, you worry and are troubled about many things, whereas only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the better part, and it will not be taken away from her.”


---- Mine,

I want you to understand what I am going to say to you today. Pay attention. Listen closely, listen well.  

The secrets of the Kingdom of God are revealed to those with a childlike heart and a docile spirit. To hunger and thirst for Me,  to desire Me above all and before all, to have this one thought alone; never to wound Me through sin. To be glad when you are called to suffer for you are privileged to receive a taste of the Cross. To be prepared to set aside everything in the world no matter how important or how necessary you may think it, and sit as a child at My feet as Mary, did wholly absorbed in Me. To such as these, I, the Son of the Father, will make known the Father. I will draw you into My life and I will be your home. In Me and with Me and through Me you will find yourself already in the Kingdom of My Father

WORD OFGOD

Psalm 32:8

I will teach you,
I will show you the way to follow.
I will watch over you and give you counsel.


---- Mine,

Once more, as I have done so often in the past, I assure you that I am with you always. I take you by the hand, I instruct you in the  wisdom and knowledge of the Way that you must follow. I Myself watch over as a mother watches over her baby. I keep My eye on you I reach out and steady you when you stumble, I lift you up when you fall. I AM your God and you belong to Me. When you do not know which road to take  be still and listen for the sound of My voice, I will speak to you; I will tell you this is the way, walk in it. 

Believe ---- Mine, all things are possible to those who believe.

WORDOF GOD

Sirach 43:27

He is everything.


---- Mine,

Take a moment to understand the words I say to you this day. I AM everything. The Father is Everything. The Holy Spirit is everything. Having God you have all things. Nothing more and nothing less is the fullness of Truth that is granted to you through Baptism, Confirmation, the Eucharist; and when you fail and falter, the Sacrament of Reconciliation is given to you so you can begin anew. Hold on to the Truth it will illumine the Way and will lead you to Life in all its fullness. When the world gets too much for you recall My Word and it will refresh and renew you. I AM everything.

WORD OF GOD

Psalm 143:8

Let the dawn bring me word of your love; 
for in you alone, I put my trust. 
Show me the way I should walk, 
for to you I lift up my soul.

---- Mine,

Every morning when you come to  Me and wait on My Word, My Father, My Spirit and I delight to come to you to make our home in you; to inspire you to ask that which you need to enable you live a life that is pleasing to Me. When you sit at My feet as a disciple and you look to Me for guidance I give you not just what you ask for but so much more. Yes, I have put My angels in charge of you because I know how weak you are; I know that you need My help every moment. Do not be afraid but trust Me keep your gaze fixed on Me. Do not trust your strength but lean on Me, ask for My Spirit  He is the Helper and He will prompt you and guide your footsteps on the way to the Kingdom.

WORD OF GOD

Luke 7: 48 & 50

"Your sins are forgiven. Your faith has saved you, go in peace."


---- Mine,

I want you to look at the incident that ended in Me saying these words, "Your sins are forgiven. Your faith has saved you, go in peace." 

When I accepted the invitation to have a meal in the home of Simon the Leper I knew what would occur in the course of that meal. The woman's past was irrelevant once she had come to a decision to turn away from it, when she publicly humbled herself, opening herself to mockery and ridicule, weep in sorrow for her many sins, and make a beautiful, symbolic act of reparation. Oblivious to those around her but came straight to Me, she knew I would look at her with compassion, understand her sorrow and her earnest desire to make a fresh start. 

The whole incident is a parable of how the sinner approaches the Throne of Mercy in the Sacrament of Reconciliation and meets Me there when they come with the attitude of this woman. The tears of sorrow with which she washed My Feet, the drying of them with her hair, the kissing of My Feet, and the breaking of the alabaster jar to pour out the expensive and fragrant perfume over them, are an indication of true contrition. They are the steps that the sinner takes toward complete restoration when God embraces the sinners and loves them back home. The words, "Your sins are forgiven, your faith has saved you, go in peace,"  bring the Sacrament to a close and the soul of the penitent is fragrant once more as it is filled with the grace of God. His sins are remembered no more. This is true peace.

THE NEED FOR LENTEN RESOLUTIONS

The season of Lent is like a 40 day retreat. It is a time of entering into a spiritual wilderness as Jesus did when He was led into the desert. It is a time to make a serious effort to turn away from sin and to turn towards God. We make time for silence, prayer, reading Scripture, fasting and almsgiving in order to advance in holiness and perfection. Our Lenten resolutions are linked to the three traditional Lenten practices of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. We practice little acts of self-denial and make sacrifices in order to wean ourselves from worldly attachments and fix our minds on the eternal.  It is a time to walk more closely with Jesus in His Passion.

What are the types of penance we can practice?  We ought to ask the Holy Spirit to shed light on those areas in our lives that need change. An honest self-examination can help reveal our besetting sins and weaknesses and it is these that we must set about rooting out of our lives with His help. We cannot get rid of lifelong bad habits in an instant but we can learn to gain mastery over them by exercising discipline in areas that we can control and we can do this by making realistic Lenten resolutions.

PRAYER:   SPIRITUAL STOCK TAKING

What is the first thing we do when we wake up?

If we are reaching for our mobile to check our messages then we can consider denying ourselves that pleasure. Instead consciously and prayerfully make the Sign of the Cross, thank and praise God for the gift of another day, and make an offering of the entire day to Him. How much time do we normally spend in prayer compare that to the amount of time we spend in entertaining ourselves with our friends? If we find a great discrepancy between the two this is the time to ponder on the first Commandment: I am the Lord thy God; thou shalt not have strange gods before Me. Does anything or anyone take priority before God in my life? What are our favorite pastimes? T.V. serials, movies, sports, Reality T.V. shows, news. Cut down on the amount of time you spend on these activities and spend 15 minutes praying the Rosary, pray the Way of the Cross, read a short passage from one of the Gospels, read a spiritual book. Read an article from Charisarabia and spend a few minutes reflecting on what you have read.

TECHNOLOGY: How much time do we spend each day on our smart phone or laptop which is not work related?  How much time do we spend texting? Perhaps we could refrain from sharing unnecessary messages in Lent. Or we could shut off our phone for an hour and spend that time more fruitfully.

FASTING: Fasting is an effective way to root out a besetting season or weakness. If we deny ourselves some small, legitimate pleasure during these 40 days, we will find at the end of Lent it is easier to exercise self-control in weaknesses we have found difficult to overcome. Some ways of fasting from food are by not eating between meals (unless you are sick and need to), give up chocolates, a favorite treat or dessert; this is not an end in itself but a means to an end.  It is difficult at first to stop yourself from reaching out for a chocolate or a snack, or having an extra helping of something you like, but God sees the desire of the heart and will grant the grace necessary to exercise discipline over some weakness that needs correction.

MASTERY OVER THE TONGUE   This is the biggie. If we do none of the above but focus on this one area alone we would be most pleasing to God. Are we talking all the time? Do we have an opinion on everything?

James 3:5-10   So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great exploits. How great a forest is set ablaze by a small fire! And the tongue is a fire. The tongue is placed among our members as a world of iniquity; it stains the whole body, sets on fire the cycle of nature, and is itself set on fire by hell. For every species of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by the human species, but no one can tame the tongue—a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse those who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this ought not to be so.

Here are some sins we commit with our tongue:

·        LIES – Outright lies and white lies

·  DETRACTION revealing another person's real faults to another without a valid reason, thereby lessening the reputation of that person. Test yourself before you speak – Is it necessary? Will I tear down or build up?

·        GOSSIP Men are as guilty as women.

·       SLANDER Passing along false information. This is serious sin.

·        USING GOD'S NAME IN VAIN

·        USING FILTHY LANGUAGE

·   HABITUALLY ARGUING DISAGREEBLY. Nothing uplifting ever comes out of the mouth.

·  HABITUAL NEGATIVITY – Complaining about everything all the time.

Let us make an honest examination with the help of the Holy Spirit to see whether or not we have been just in our words with the people who touch our lives; our colleagues at work, the stranger who for a brief moment touches our life, the stranger is the one to whom we ought to be most kind and gentle for Scripture reminds us in Heb 13:2 Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. If we are habitually and needlessly harsh, critical, unkind, and rude, in our words to people, and we make excuses and justify ourselves for being so, then there is an urgent need for correction. Let us check our tongue, check the rude words, check the harsh language, check the prejudice revealed in our words because people belong to a different country, a different state, speak a different language, have a different accent, and resolve in this Season of Lent to fast from such injustice. 

This will be hard if not impossible without the help of the Holy Spirit. Let us ask for this grace, and believe we have received it.

ALMSGIVING Does not necessarily mean giving money, it also means giving of yourself.

I know someone who always smiles, greets, and gives some money to the Bangla Deshi cleaners on the road. I believe that more than the money it is the smile that is welcome and makes him feel visible because he has been acknowledged.

Do you eat out often? You can deny yourself that pleasure sometimes and give that money to the poor. There is a box kept in the church during Lent for this purpose.

Go out of your way to be kind to the person who annoys you most, someone you dislike. Smile at the people who serve you and say thank you. You cannot imagine how it can lift someone’s spirits especially if they have been having a bad day.

Don’t grumble. Control negative thoughts. A negative mind creates a negative spirit. There are some people who complain about everything and create a pool of negativity around them.

We are children of the Light and through every life we touch in the course of our waking hours, and throughout our lives, they must encounter Christ through us or that day will not have been well spent.

Finally let us remember that at the end of Lent we celebrate Easter. We don’t earn the right to rise with Christ by our sacrifices but our prayers, fasting, and almsgiving are opportunities to prepare for the Easter Rising. We do these things to prepare us for the Resurrection. Let us take up our crosses daily in union with Christ because we know if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. Rom 6:5

WORD OF GOD

John 1:39 A & 43 B

Come and see.

Follow me.


---- Mine, 

Today I invite you into a deeper more committed relationship with Me. True conversion requires first and foremost knowledge of Me close, personal, intimate knowledge, of Me. Once you know Me, the next step in your ongoing journey to the Kingdom, is to follow Me. There is no qualification to this invitation  your response  is nothing short of complete renunciation to the things of the world  and single hearted devotion to  going  where lead you. This is not an invitation for the faint hearted nor for the vain glorious; it is for meek, for  the one who understands that God is everything. There is room for nothing but Me. Your whole being must yearn for Me as one in the burning  desert longs for water, and cool shade. You must pant with longing for the Living God who alone can satisfy every one of your desires. I am the Lord your God you can have no other I will not have any part of a divided heart for I am a jealous lover. Give Me all of you and in return my own little nothing I will give you all of Me.

WORD OF GOD

Baruch 4: 3A, , 21, 27, , 28, 30

Take courage.
Come, take courage, my children cry to God. He will deliver you from the violence of the enemy
Take courage, my children cry out to God, for he who sent you into exile will remember you.
As you distanced yourself from God, return to him and seek him ten times more earnestly.
Take courage, he who has named you will console you.



---- Mine,

This day, my own little treasure, I want to assure you that you have no need to fear either for yourself or for those who are nearest and dearest to you. This is why I say to you over and over again. Take courage. Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.

What can people do to you when the Lord Your God watches over you? No one can harm even a hair on your head. Walk with confidence. Lift up your head remember that you are a daughter of the Most High God. I am Your Brother, Your Spouse, the Bridegroom of your soul. The Holy Spirit of the Father and the Son makes His home in your soul, you are His temple. Take courage little one, it pleases the Father to give you the Kingdom. Courage, I assure you that you have nothing to fear from those who seek the destruction of one who belongs to Me. I have triumphed, glory in My victory for everyone who believes in Me shares in it with Me. 

WORD OF GOD

Luke 8:47-48

The woman knew she had been discovered. She came trembling, and knelt before Jesus. Then she openly
confessed why she had touched him, and how she had been instantly cured. And Jesus said to her, “Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

---- Mine

Faith in Me has power to obtain for you all that you ask for, all your heart desires. Every prayer you prayer every sigh, all the woundedness of your soul, all the prayers and petitions you make for yourself and for those you love, and for the whole world, I hear and I answer.  

Be still and know that I am God. Is anything too difficult for Me? Troubles will come ---- My Own, for you live in a fallen world wounded by original sin; but be of good cheer my little nothing I have overcome the world. Continue to bring me all your joys, fears, anxieties, pain, sorrow, and I will give you rest.  My yoke is easy and my burden is light for My burden is love.

WORD OF GOD

Sirach 6:37

Meditate on the precepts of the Lord and apply yourself unceasingly to his commandments. He will strengthen your heart and the wisdom you desire will be given to you.

---- Mine,

I have heard your prayer to Me today and and it pleases Me to give you all you have asked for. Nothing delights us more than to fill the hearts who ask with the power of the Holy Spirit. But remember what I have said; you need to think deeply about the things that are eternal, about the things that the Lord asks of you from day to day. Keep my commandments of love, you know them. The first is to love the Lord your God with your whole heart, your whole mind, and your whole strength, and the second is to love everyone else as you love yourself. 

Be generous with your time use it fruitfully do not squander what you have been given. Remember eventually time will run out; spend it well, spend it fruitfully, and I assure you every good and perfect gift will be poured into your heart for it pleases the Father to give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him.

WORD OF GOD

Mark 5:34

Daughter, your faith has saved you;
go in peace and be free of this illness.

---- My daugher, My own,

Today I call you daughter because I am all things to you. When you are sick I am you healer, when you are weary I am your strength when you are heartbroken I am your comforter, when you are hungry I am your food, thirsty I am your drink. Turn to Me in every one of your needs and ask  so I may delight to hear and answer. Open your mouth and I will fill it,  open your heart and I will pour My Spirit into your soul. He will lead you in the way you should go. What do you wish me to give you today? Ask what you will and it will be granted by My Father who will deny nothing to those who ask for my Name's sake.

WORD OF GOD

Jeremiah 31:3-4

I have loved you with a love everlasting, so I have kept for you my mercy. I will restore you again, and you shall be rebuilt.

---- Mine,

Can you begin to fathom the depths, the height, the length of My everlasting love for you. It is fathomless and you can never even begin to grasp how much I love you. I have claimed you for Myself you are Mine no,w and in eternally. I have called you by your name, I have written it on the palms of My hand.s No I will never forget you never will I forsake you. No matter how hard you try to distance yourself for Me and My love I will come after you, I will pursue you and plead with you to return to Me. In Me you will always find mercy, kindness, gentleness compassion,and forgiveness of all your sins. Return to Me with all your heart and I will restore all that you have lost. All the graces you squandered when you departed from Me I will give back to you a hundredfold. Yes, I will do this because you are Mine. Love Me make Me known and loved. Only in knowing and loving Me will you know true joy.

WORD OF GOD

Isaiah 58:9

You will call and the Lord will answer,
you will cry and he will say, "I am here."


---- Mine,

Can you recall a time when you called and I did not come to your assistance You cried aloud, wailed, and lamented and I did not hasten to you comfort you and assure you that I was with you? All your past experiences of my closeness to you, every answered prayer,  every time I comforted you and wiped away your tears must enliven your faith, hope, and trust in Me.  I am God not man I honor My Word.

Before the cry escaped your lips I have been with you. Believe that I desire only to fill you with all that is good.  Stay with me, abide in Me, walk in My Shadow, remain under My all powerful protection. Do not stray from Me. Do not take the road that leads to death but stay on the narrow way which though hard is the one that leads to My Father's house. Come to M,e  I call you by your name, I have taken possession of you.  I have sealed you in My Blood and in My Spirit.  Your are irrevocably Mine now and forever. Remain in My Love.

WORD OF GOD

Mark 10:33-34

“You see we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be given over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death, and hand him over to the foreigners, who will make fun of him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him; but three days later he will rise.”

---- Mine,

Do you understand what I am saying to you today. Listen pay attention, I am the Son of God who descended from heaven to become the Son of Man. Unless I entered into your humanity, clothed in flesh, subject to all that the human condition experiences of poverty, rejection, and above all death which is the result of sin; the chasm between you and My Father, between You and God, was impossible for God to bridge. The Father longed to be reconciled with His children, He abhorred the distance between Himself and the creatures He loved and for whom He had planned such a wonderful future. How could I refuse My Father what He longed for and so I said yes, I will leave My Fathers house and go faraway from Him into a distant country. I will become like them in all things save sin. Yes, I will take upon Myself the punishment that is theirs and pay the price of sin that caused eternal death and separation from God.

I knew from the first what I would have to suffer; I knew that the separation from My Father would lead Me to become sin, that hideous putrefying thing that is so abhorrent to Me.  Worse than the condemnation, the rejection, the betrayals and denials of friends, the torture, the pain, the horror, the mocking the jeering the spittle the scourging, that laceration of My Flesh,the slaughtering of My Body and the nailing to the tree of life  until all My blood drained out; horrific as it all was, it was not as horrific as taking upon myself every sin that men and women ever committed from the day of the disobedience of their first parents at the dawn of creation, until the last that will ever live. But it was worth the price for after My death and burial in the tomb I did rise on the third day, I did return in triumph to My Father's house, I did accomplish all that the I set out to do in obedience to My Father. Now you too will be where I AM in My Father's House. Live a life of grace and I Myself will come and lead you, so someday where I AM you too will be.

WORD OF GOD

Hosea 2:16

So I am going to allure her,
lead her once more into the desert,
where I can speak to her tenderly.



---- Mine,

I love you with an everlasting love. I want to take you by your hand and lead you away out of the noise and distractions that are constantly clamoring for your attention. I want to have to all to Myself so I can speak to you. I want to tell you how precious you are to Me; that you are the apple of My eye. I keep watch over you through the hours of the day and the watches of the night. Do not ever consider yourself alone this is never true for I am always with you. I dwell within your soul In the Eucharist we are one heart in a union that is but a taste of the delights to come in eternity. Be not afraid My own little one, it pleases My Father to give you a share of the Kingdom. Stay awake  and listen always to the voice of My Holy Spirit. Trust and obey and He will lead you  in the way you  must go. Be docile under His influence and you will experience such joy as you have never known before.

WORD OF GOD

Isaiah 27:2

Praise my fruitful vineyard! I, the Lord, am its keeper; I water it every moment. So that no one will harm it, day and night I guard it.

---- Mine, yield to Me. Surrender your whole being to Me. You are Mine I have claimed you for Myself.These beautiful verses I speak to you today. No longer do you belong to yourself but to Me my little one, my spouse, my sister, my bride. It is I who have sent My Holy Spirit to take up His abode in your heart. He will pour grace upon grace into our soul and make it fruitful. You will have an abundant harvest in season and out of season for I Myself will stand watch over you and guard you so no one will come in to steal, plunder, or destroy, what belongs to Me. I am your Lord and your God, you shall have no other for I have marked you for Myself now and forever. You are Mine, Mine, Mine. 

WORD OF GOD

Maccabees 2:1, 3, 5 
Job 42:9B

May God fill you with every good.
May he give you a heart to worship him and to fulfill his will with generosity and a well disposed spirit.
May he hear your prayers and be reconciled with you, and not abandon you in time of misfortune.

Yahweh accepted Job's intercession.


---- Mine,

Open your mouth and I will fill it with words of wisdom, peace, joy, and blessings. When you call I will hear and answer you. Every prayer you pray will be heard by Me. I will bless all those you ask Me to bless, I will protect you and guard you as the apple of My eye. Do not let your heart be troubled or anxious about anything but with prayers and intercessions bring all your needs to Me as well as the needs of the world and I will give heed and I will answer. Do not be troubled or anxious about anything for I the Lord walk with you I am with you all your days, and I will come for you  when your journey ends to lead you to My Fathers house where you will be one with Me eternally.

WORD OF GOD

Song of Song 8:6-7

Set me as a seal on your heart,
set me as a seal on your arm.
For love is strong as death;
its jealousy lasting as the power of death,
it burns like a blazing fire,
it blazes like a mighty flame. 
No flood can extinguish love
nor river submerge it.
If a man were to buy love
with all the wealth of his house,

contempt is all he would purchase.


---- Mine,

Just as you are sealed in My Blood, just as a mark has been placed on your soul proclaiming before all that you are Mine, so too, my little one do I desire you to seal Me upon your heart and on your arm so all will know that I am yours and you are Mine. I want to belong to you utterly. Yes, I whom the heavens cannot contain and for whom the earth is a footstool, desires that you, my own little nothing, declare that we belong to each other and that there is no other love that is greater that the one you bear Me. I will not permit any other love to come before yours for Me for I desire that we be one. You in Me and I in you, in time and eternally. There can be no greater love in your life ---- Mine than the love you have for Me.

WORD OF GOD

Psalm 81:6C-8AB

“Open wide your mouth and I will fill it, 
I relieved your shoulder from burden;
I freed your hands.
You called in distress, and I saved you;

unseen, I answered you.


---- Mine,

Give and you will receive full measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over; for in the measure that you give you will receive. Give all and you will receive more than you ever expected for I love a generous giver. Do not stop to count the cost the measure of your giving should be the measure of the Cross. Empty yourself. I share the burden of your daily Calvary with you you are never alone.  I am closer to you than your heartbeat, the breath you breathe; so do not be afraid or anxious about anything but with prayers and supplications make your needs to known to Me and I assure that the God of Love, will answer you even before the prayer has left your lips.

WORD OF GOD

Sirach 51:28-30

Be instructed, whatever the cost, and you will gain what is better than gold. Let your soul find joy in the mercy  of the Lord, and do not be ashamed to praise him. Do your work within the appointed time, and the Lord in his time will give you your reward.

---- Mine,

Chin up. Have courage. Be strong. You have nothing to fear;  I am with you every step of the way, in your journey from this life to the next. You do not know the day or the hour when I will call you this is why you must be prepared.  Now is the time, now is the acceptable hour for you to to know and accept that salvation is given to you. Remember all things work for the good of those who love Me; use every opportunity and all the circumstances of your life to draw nearer to Me. Lift your head  for the Kingdom of God is at hand. Do not be troubled or anxious about anything but with prayer and thanksgiving make your needs known to Me. I assure you that I will withhold no good thing from you or those our love. Be at peace ---- Mine it pleases My Father to give you the Kingdom. Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.

WORD OF GOD

in which man can find refuge.
---- Mine,

When you read My Word read it with faith and with conviction knowing that I AM THE WORD.  Every word uttered by Me are words that show you the Way, reveal the Truth, and bring you Life. No one comes to the Father except through me. The Father and I are one, if you belong to me then you belong to the Father as well, for I am in Him and He is in Me. I have consecrated you to the truth and the truth sets you free. Be not afraid; in the world you will have tribulations but know that I have conquered the the world. Ask the Father in My Name for all you need and He will grant it to you.
