WORD OF GOD - PS 52:8-9

PSALM 52:8-9

But I am like a green olive tree
in the house of God.
I trust in the steadfast love of God
forever and ever.

I will thank you forever,
because of what you have done.
In the presence of the faithful
I will proclaim your name, for it is good.

---- my own,

Never forget for an instant that you are Mine, called by My Name, carved on the palm of My Hand. You are the branch that is attached to Me, the Vine. The Father is the Vinedresser and there will be times in your life that are difficult, and painful, there will be great suffering as well, during these times the greatest growth takes place. When trials come be still and know that I AM God, and when the time of tribulation has passed you will discover that I was with you every moment of your suffering because I AM always faithful. Testify to the world how good God has been to you, testify to My unfailing love for you.

WORD OF GOD - LK 1:52-54

LUKE 1:52-54

He has brought down the powerful from their thrones,
and lifted up the lowly;
he has filled the hungry with good things,
and sent the rich away empty.
He has helped his servant Israel,
in remembrance of his mercy.

---- mine

Keep this in mind always, the ways of the world are contrary to the ways of My Father. All that is eternal, all that is ordained by God, all that My Father wills is a sign of contradiction to those who feed at the fleshpots of the world. The only things that the world offers bring decay and death to the soul. Live the Beatitudes and you will see the proud, the haughty, the powerful, brought down and the poor, the lowly, the obedient, the anawim of God, raised up. Model your life on the disciple par-excellence, My Mother and yours, and you will never be sent away empty for the Lord loves those who trust Him and keep their eyes fixed on Him. Fear nothing. I, the Lord, your God, am with you now and forever.

WORD OF GOD - MK 13:11

MARK 13:11

When they bring you to trial and hand you over, do not worry beforehand about what you are to say; but say whatever is given you at that time, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.

---- mine,

Silence is sometimes the best response to those who oppose you because of Me. Pray constantly to the Holy Spirit to prompt you when to speak and when to hold your tongue. Put on the whole armor of God and be ready to stand up with courage to 
those who peddle half-truths. Many perish through ignorance as for you, know the Truth, it will set you free.

WORD OF GOD - LK 19:26

LUKE 19:26

“I tell you, to all those who have, more will be given; but from those who have nothing, even what they have will be taken away.”

---- mine,

Listen to all I have to say to you, members of the Church I founded with Peter as her visible head. To you who are baptized into My Body. To you who fed on the Holy Eucharist and sustained by the Holy Spirit in the Sacraments I instituted, on you will fall a harsher judgment. You are given the pearl of great price, the treasure in the field and you neither know nor have you sought to know the Gift of Grace that My Father has given you. Ignorance is no excuse and you who claim ignorance will discover to your shame that by your stubborn and willful blindness to the Treasures of God that were given to you in love and through My Father's goodness, have allowed yourself to be robbed of the Kingdom of God. Be aware that those who are lost have chosen to be lost.

WORD OF GOD - PS 51:17

PSALM 51:17

The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.

---- mine,


I have given the Church My power to forgive sins. The Pharisees were scandalized when I said to the paralyzed man, 'Son your sins are forgiven,' and rightly so for God alone has the power to forgive sins. When I went on to heal the man commanding him to walk, I proved that I Am God. Sin, especially grave sins, shut the door to grace and to My infinite mercy. I long to forgive every sinner all their sins but My Father wills that sinners first acknowledge their sins. Like David, every sinner needs to know the gravity of their sins. Unless a sinner approaches me with a contrite heart and a broken spirit, in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, specifically instituted by Me so that the floodgates of My Mercy may open and wash them clean of all stain of sin including the punishment due to sin, there can be no forgiveness. It takes humility, obedience, and courage to confess Your sins to a priest. Do it often and you will receive all the graces and help you need to grow in holiness and perfection.

WORD OF GOD - SIR 35:12-13

SIRACH 35:12-13

Give to the Most High as he has given to you, 
 and as generously as you can afford.
For the Lord is the one who repays,
and he will repay you sevenfold.

---- mine,


The problem with most people who are called by My Name is a distinct lack of generosity. Everything you have received is given to you in stewardship and you are required to share it with everyone in need wisely. I speak not only of temporal goods but also that of the spirit. What you have received freely share freely with those who come to you. Put your own needs and wants last. When you pray call to mind all the people you know beginning with those nearest and dearest to you, and then cast the net of your imagination on the needs of the Church, your neighborhood, your country, and the world. The Church needs your prayers and your tithes. It is far more profitable if you pray daily for My priests who serve you in My Name rather than criticizing them. B
e generous and I will bless you more abundantly than you can ever imagine.

WORD OF GOD - MT 20:13-16

MATTHEW 20:13-16

“Friend, I am doing you no wrong; did you not agree with me for the usual daily wage? Take what belongs to you and go; I choose to give to this last the same as I give to you. Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?” 
So the last will be first, and the first will be last.’

---- my own,

Envy, especially spiritual envy is a deadly evil. The Holy Spirit gives gifts and talents to all God's people that are to be used for the glory of God and to spread the Good News of His Kingdom. The judgment of those who receive greater gifts will be far more severe than those to whom fewer gifts are given. You are called to serve and by divine favor, you have been faithful thus far. Were it not for My constant watchful gaze on you, guiding and shepherding you, and wooing you back to Me every single time you strayed you would have fallen into the pit several times and remained there. For My Sake, the Father will temper His justice with mercy so many will receive the gift of salvation and a share in My inheritance at the very last moment of their lives, like the good thief on the cross. Who will dare to complain or tell God what He can or cannot do with what is His? but you pray constantly, that you too will receive the same mercy as those who are faithful and zealous in establishing His Kingdom on earth.

WORD OF GOD - JOB 10:11-12

JOB 10:11-12

You clothed me with skin and flesh,
and knit me together with bones and sinews.
You have granted me life and steadfast love,
and your care has preserved my spirit.

---- mine,


I formed you, I created you, you are My masterpiece, an original, unique, there is no one in all creation quite like you. To Me, you are perfect and I delight in gazing on you for you are the work of My hands. I breathed life into you. I have numbered all your days and when they come to a close, I Myself will come and take you to dwell with Me eternally. I have prepared a place for you so you will make your home in Me and with Me. For now, I desire you to make a home for Me in your heart and strive with your whole will to love Me and keep My commandments. If you do I assure you My Father and I will come to you and remain with you always. Never forget, that you are Mine and that I have claimed you as Mine in time and eternity.

WORD OF GOD - LK 6:22-23

LUKE 6:22-23

‘Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man. Rejoice on that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets
.

---- mine,


No one likes to be excluded, to be ignored, to be thought of as being less than their worth. No one likes to be looked down on because they speak a different language, practice a different faith, or because they do not have the right credentials to belong, fit in, to be considered acceptable. This is especially true of Christians and even more true of Catholic Christians. What should your response be to those whose colossal ignorance of Truth causes them to spew venom, make derogatory remarks, and condemn you as idolators and worse? Keep your gaze on Me crucified and you will receive all the strength you need to withstand the cruelty of the ignorant and to pray with Me the prayer I prayed to My Father. 'Forgive them, they know not what they do.'  And you will receive My peace that surpasses human understanding will be yours.

WORD OF GOD - MK 9;36-37

MARK 9:36-37


Then he took a little child and put it among them; and taking it in his arms, he said to them, ‘Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes not me but the one who sent me.’

----- mine,

Children are one of My Father's most precious gifts to the world. Every new baby born is given an eternal soul and brings into the world more love, more hope, and greater possibilities than there were before he or she came into it. It is satanic to say that this gift of God is worthless unless it is wanted. All human life has infinite worth. Each one of us is God's masterpiece and is precious in His sight. The value of the soul is not determined by one's physical or mental capabilities but by the fact that we are created in the image and likeness of God. Anyone who destroys or rejects a child or diminishes his or her worth in any way rejects Me and anyone who rejects Me rejects My Father who sent Me. There are deadly and eternal consequences should anyone dare to wrest from the Author of life the power over life and death that belongs solely to Him.

Monday, May 23, 2022

WORD OF GOD - PS 91:14-16

PSALM 91:14-16 


Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honour them.
With long life I will satisfy them,
and show them my salvation.

---- mine

Because you are mine,  because you know My Name and are called by My Name you have the Presence of the Most High God overshadowing you and will overshadow you all the days that you are alive. Each time you call I hear and answer because I make My
dwelling in you. When trouble comes, when you are afraid, or anxious, when you feel alone, when there is no human friend that you can lean on, I AM with you. Come to Me, lean on Me, make your home in Me as I make Mine in you. And fear nothing ---- Mine, nothing in this world can snatch you from Me for you are covered in My Blood and sealed in the Holy Spirit. You are Mine in time and in eternity.

Sunday, May 22, 2022

WORD OF GOD - LK 7:13-15

LUKE 7:13-15

When the Lord saw her, he had compassion for her and said to her, ‘Do not weep.’ Then he came forward and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. And he said, ‘Young man, I say to you, rise!’ The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother.

---- my own,

There is not a tear you shed, not a sigh you sigh, not a moment of sorrow that I AM not aware of you because I AM here with you always just as I promised you I would be. There is no grief so great that I cannot alleviate, no sorrow I cannot replace with joy, and I assure you I collect each of your tears. I love you, ---- mine, and it breaks My Heart when you do not turn to Me for comfort when you suffer, worry, grieve and weep. Let Me comfort you. Rest on My Heart and you will hear Me say to you over and over, 'Do not weep.' I will restore you, I will heal you, I will comfort you, I will wipe away all your tears and I will fill you with joy that will never end. Remain in Me and in My love always.

Saturday, May 21, 2022

WORD OF GOD - SIR 34:19-20

SIRACH 34:19-20


The eyes of the Lord are on those who love him, 
a mighty shield and strong support,
a shelter from scorching wind and a shade from noonday sun,
a guard against stumbling and a help against falling.
He lifts up the soul and makes the eyes sparkle;
he gives health and life and blessing.

---- my own,

My gaze is always on you for I love you with an everlasting love. Love Me in return and pray daily that the Holy Spirit increase your love for Me. The measure of your love determines the degree to which you will comprehend and respond to My immeasurable love for you. As your love for Me increases so will childlike trust in Me. My love will provide shelter during all the storms you experience in life. It will be a bulwark on which you can lean to prevent you from stumbling and falling. When love for Me overwhelms you I will lift up your soul and fill you with an abundance of graces and blessings.

WORD OF GOD - HOS 11:3-4

HOSEA 11:3-4

Yet it was I who taught Ephraim to walk,
I took them up in my arms;
but they did not know that I healed them.
I led them with cords of human kindness,
with bands of love.
I was to them like those
who lift infants to their cheeks.
I bent down to them and fed them.

---- my own,

How long will you be indifferent to the One who sustains you every moment of every day? I who created you, feed you, watch over you ceaselessly, stoop low over you. I take you by the hand and lead you. I keep you from stumbling, seek you when you stray, love you with a love that is often agonizing because you are heedless of My love. Are you so blind that you cannot see all the signs that reveal My burning love for you? Are you so hard of hearing you cannot hear My voice speaking tender endearments to you as a mother speaks to a child? Stop wandering away from Me. Do you still not know that you are Mine? You were once a slave to sin  I purchased you and set you free. I have made you a child of God and heir to the Kingdom because I have grafted You to Me. Remain in Me and I will remain in you. Strive to love Me as you ought and be holy and perfect as My Father is holy and perfect so you may reign with Me and share in My glory forever.

WORD OF GOD - MT 8:22

MATTHEW 8:22


But Jesus said to him, ‘Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.’ 

---- mine,


Once you hear Me say to you, 'Follow Me,' obey. Drop everything you are doing stop and do as I ask. Stop looking for excuses not to fast, not to pray, not to do the good that the Holy Spirit is prompting you to do, not to reach out with kindness and generosity. Get rid of all the baggage that fills your soul to make room for the Holy Spirit. Unless you are filled with My Spirit you will never be attuned to His promptings. Follow Me. Image your life on Me. Do all the good you are called to do while you still can and stop making ridiculous excuses. Now is the time tomorrow will be too late.

Tuesday, May 17, 2022

WORD OF GOD - WIS 3:9

WISDOM 3:9


Those who trust in him will understand truth,

and the faithful will abide with him in love,
because grace and mercy are upon his holy ones,
and he watches over his elect.

---- my own,

Truth demands that one is prepared to relinquish all that one has thus far carefully built their life around, all that is familiar, comfortable, safe, and delve wholeheartedly into what one has long thought alien and strange territory. Truth demands courage, humility, and a willingness to lose all in order to embrace it. Truth alone has the power to set free for when one resolves to give the Holy Spirit free rein allowing Him to lead the Way, He leads into all Truth. One may find oneself in completely strange and unfamiliar territory but the grace, mercy, and faithfulness of God will never fail to be a support and strength. I, the Lord take all seekers of the Truth by the hand into the place where night has no power over the light. Seek Truth and embrace it even if it costs you everything that the world offers in exchange you will receive the pearl of great price.

Monday, May 16, 2022

WORD OF GOD - MK 9:23

MARK 9:23


Jesus said to him, ‘If you are able!—All things can be done for the one who believes.’

---- mine,

Do not doubt but believe that everything you ask for in faith you will receive. Have I not until now supplied all your needs? Is there any good thing you have asked and I withheld it from you? Continue to pray, to ask, to believe, bring not just your needs to Me but the needs of those you love, those in the world that are hurting. So many lack faith, so many doubt, so many are ignorant of Me. Pray for them and bring not just your needs but the needs of the whole world - My arm is not too short to save. I will hear and I will grant all you ask of Me in prayer - just believe.

Sunday, May 15, 2022

WORD OF GOD - MK 10:36

MARK 10:36

And he said to them, ‘What is it you want me to do for you?’

---- mine,


What is it you want Me to do for you? What is it that you believe will bring you the greatest joy? Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find knock and the door will be opened to you. Ask for the things that abound to eternal life. Ask for the Holy Spirit. Hunger, thirst, and yearn for Him for with Him nothing will be impossible for you. Ask for the Gifts of the Holy Spirit but first empty yourself, your soul, your life of all that is unworthy of a child of God. If your heart is full of worldly desires there will be no room for the Spirit of Life, Grace, Goodness, Truth, and Love. Once you have made room for the Spirit of God come to Me and ask Me what it is that that you desire Me to do for you and I will do it.

Saturday, May 14, 2022

WORD OF GOD - MT 14:14-18

MATTHEW 14:14-18

When he went ashore, he saw a great crowd; and he had compassion for them and cured their sick. When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, ‘This is a deserted place, and the hour is now late; send the crowds away so that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.’ Jesus said to them, ‘They need not go away; you give them something to eat.’ They replied, ‘We have nothing here but five loaves and two fish.’And he said, ‘Bring them here to me.’

---- mine,

I care for the physical well-being of all those who are Mine, all who call on My Name, all who come to Me hungry and thirsty for that which gives life not only to the body but to the spirit. But I AM even more deeply aware of the spiritual sickness, the spiritual hunger, the dry spiritual well, the aching void within souls. They suffer deeply and need divine intervention or else they will live bleak, dark, lonely, desperate lives. There are such people in your life too. They need your help and when you turn to Me and ask Me to help them I say to you what I said to the disciples, 'You give them something to eat.' Within yourself, little though it may be, you will find what is needed to heal the deep spiritual wounds of those around you who are hurting but first, bring the little you have to Me in faith. I will bless it and I will supply all that is lacking but first, bring the little you have to Me.

WORD OF GOD - PS 123:2

PSALM 123:2


As the eyes of servants
look to the hand of their master,
as the eyes of a maid
to the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes look to the Lord our God,
until he has mercy upon us.


---- mine,

Keep your gaze on Me, the Lord your God, and on the Handmaid of the Lord, My Mother, and together we will direct your way and your will slowly and surely on the narrow path that leads to life. You will waver often but as long as you fix your eyes on Me and My Mother we will bring you back to the path that leads to the Kingdom of God. Stay close to My Mother and she will plead with Me unceasingly on your behalf to show you mercy and I will because our response to her is always yes just as her response to us on earth was always yes.

Thursday, May 12, 2022

WORD OF GOD - MT 17:7

MATTHEW 17:7


But Jesus came and touched them, saying, ‘Get up and do not be afraid.’

---- mine,

There is nothing to fear in life except the death of your soul. Fear nothing because fear kills, paralyzes, fear has no place in love. Do not give it a foothold if you do or you will quickly slide into despair. Faith is My gift to you. The Father who created you, I who lay down My life for you, and the Holy Spirit who sanctifies you will never abandon you. You have been claimed by the Blood of the Lamb and your eternal destiny is with the angels and the saints offering perfect, joyful, and unending praise to God. Fear nothing for I AM with you now and always. You are Mine.

Wednesday, May 11, 2022

WORD OF GOD - PS 12:6

PSALM 12:6

The promises of the Lord are promises that are pure,
silver refined in a furnace on the ground,
purified seven times.

---- my own,

I AM the Lord your God, is anything too difficult for Me? Have I not answered every one of your prayers? Have I not come to your help and rescued you each time you called for My help? Has there ever been a time in your life when you called and I did not make haste to help you? Remember all the times when you were sliding down the slippery slope of sin into the pit and you cried out to Me and I reached out and saved you from destruction. Let all your experiences of how I dealt with you in the past strengthen your faith and your hope in My steadfast love for you. Trust in My Word at all times and let its light illumine your soul and strengthen you in difficult times. Am I not your Lord, your God, the Bridegroom of your soul? Fear nothing ---- mine for I AM with you always even to the end. 

Tuesday, May 10, 2022

WORD OF GOD - MK 7:14-15

MARK 7:14-15

Then he called the crowd again and said to them, “Listen to me, all of you, and understand: there is nothing outside a person that by going in can defile, but the things that come out are what defile.”

---- my own,

Within a person's soul exists either heaven or hell and it is from here that the infinite possibilities for good or evil thrive. Train your feet to walk in righteousness and in the fear of the Lord and you will nurture in your soul only that which is true, good, and beautiful. Steep yourself in My Word, listen in humility, and obey all the commands and precepts of the Church and you will remain unstained by the debauchery of the horrific culture prevalent in the world today. Pray constantly, do good always and evil will have no power over you. 

Monday, May 9, 2022

WORD OF GOD - JER 32:27

JEREMIAH 32:27


See, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh; is anything too hard for me?


---- mine,

Fear nothing. Do not doubt. Know that I who love you, watch over you, protect you, and nurture you will remain with you always. Trust Me and believe that I will come when you call Me and I will hear and answer all your prayers. Nothing is too hard for Me.

WORD OF GOD - 2 MACC 7:20-23

2 MACCABEES 7:20-23

The mother was especially admirable and worthy of honourable memory. Although she saw her seven sons perish within a single day, she bore it with good courage because of her hope in the Lord. She encouraged each of them in the language of their ancestors. Filled with a noble spirit, she reinforced her woman’s reasoning with a man’s courage, and said to them, ‘I do not know how you came into being in my womb. It was not I who gave you life and breath, nor I who set in order the elements within each of you. Therefore the Creator of the world, who shaped the beginning of humankind and devised the origin of all things, will in his mercy give life and breath back to you again, since you now forget yourselves for the sake of his laws.’

---- mine,

Every woman is called to be a mother no matter her vocation in life. This is the will of My Father in heaven that every woman ever born emulate the second Eve, the crown of His creation, My Virgin Mother, Mary. The woman spoken of in My Word to you this day is a woman of valor and is a foreshadow of My own Mom. My Mother is the template on which God desires all women to be patterned. A great number of women, including you, are unaware of their great potential and they live and die with a greater portion of their courage, wisdom, and strength untapped and unleashed. Pray to My Mother and she will obtain from Me for you the grace required for you to strive to be like her especially when it requires courage to do so. She was like you in all things save sin.

ACTS 2:17

“In the last days it will be, God declares,

that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh,
and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream 
dreams.

---- my own,

All that is God, all that is God's, is poured out in full measure on those who believe that My Father sent Me into the world to be the means by which all are saved. The Holy Spirit of God dwells in fullness in the Church I established with Peter and his successors as her visible head. Even as all the forces of hell are unleashed upon the world My Church will not be moved or shaken. She is the beacon of Light on the Hill and all who repose in the bosom of Holy Mother Church have God for their Father, Me for their Bridegroom and Brother, and the power of God's Holy Spirit indwelling in them. Fear nothing for the power of God and the wisdom of God overshadows all who are called by My Name.

JEREMIAH 7:23

But this command I gave them, ‘Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people; and walk only in the way that I command you, so that it may be well with you.’

---- mine,

If you want to enjoy perfect peace, know abiding joy, be filled with hope at all times be attentive to the sound of My voice. Do not get distracted by the cacophony of sounds and chaos in the present culture rather be still and rest in Me. Know My Word and obey it. Abide in Me. Remain in Me. Ask for all you need and it will be given to you. Desire eternal life and strive always and everywhere to do My will and life in abundance will be yours now and always.

WORD OF GOD - MICAH 2:12-13

MICAH 2:12-13

I will surely gather all of you, O Jacob,
I will gather the survivors of Israel;
I will set them together
like sheep in a fold,
like a flock in its pasture;
it will resound with people.
The one who breaks out will go up before them;
they will break through and pass the gate,
going out by it.
Their king will pass on before them,
the Lord at their head.

---- mine,

A time is coming when My sheep will be scattered, division will be sown among those who are called by My Name by the Enemy, but even when all seems lost, when hope begins to fade, I will not abandon My people who are called by My Name. I will gather My sheep from all the nations and I will lead them. I will feed them. I will be their shelter and their shade. I am the sheepgate and My sheep will enter through Me to the place prepared for them and they will be one in Me as I AM one with My Father.

WORD OF GOD - LK 17:5-6

LUKE 17:5-6

The apostles said to the Lord, ‘Increase our faith!’ The Lord replied, ‘If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, “Be uprooted and planted in the sea”, and it would obey you.

---- my own,

It is not a lack of faith that is your problem it is a lack of putting that faith to action. You are too timid, too hesitant to step out boldly and claim what is yours. To you is given the right to approach the very inner sanctuary, the holy of holies, and there to not only look upon God face to face but to consume Him. Such intimacy is not granted to all except those who belong to My Body. Be bold. Claim what is yours, lift up your head, and walk in the confidence that belongs to the sons and daughters of God.

WORD OF GOD - PS 138:7-8

PSALM 138:7-8

If I walk in the midst of trouble,
You give me life.
With outstretched arm,
You save me from the wrath of my foes,
With your right hand You deliver me.
How the Lord cares for me!
Your kindness O Lord, endures forever.
Forsake not the work of Your hands.

---- mine,

Never doubt for a moment that I AM with you and that I will never leave you, never forsake you because I know my own and my own know Me. Pray constantly. Remain in Me as I remain in you. Let My Word be your consolation and Your ever-present help. Draw on its wisdom and allow it to permeate your being then you will never be bereft of comfort, strength, and help in difficult times. Remember that I AM with you always. I hear you always. I answer you always. Have no doubt only believe.

BARUCH 4:30

Take courage, O Jerusalem,
for the one who named you will comfort you
.

---- mine,

Fear is insidious, it is feral, it destroys, it kills. This is why I say to you constantly, 'Be not afraid.' God's children, those redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb have no reason to be afraid because God fights their battles for them. All you are required to do is nestle under my wings, take refuge in Me, hide in Me. Be still and know that I AM God and I save. Courage, take heart, know that I who created you, named you, and give you life in abundance will never abandon you because you are Mine.

Take courage, my daughter! May the Lord of heaven grant you joy in place of your grief! Courage, my daughter!

WORD OF GOD - SG OF SGS 2:10-12

SONG OF SONGS 2:10-12

My beloved speaks and says to me:
‘Arise, my love, my fair one,
and come away;
for now the winter is past,
the rain is over and gone.
The flowers appear on the earth;
the time of singing has come,
and the voice of the turtle-dove
is heard in our land.

---- mine,

This is the invitation that I extend to you and will do so until you draw your last breath in this life. I desire you to have a closer and more intimate relationship with Me with every passing day. The seasons of joy, pain, sorrow, and suffering, come and go, and with the passing of each of these seasons, I form you more and more in the image and likeness of your Creator. Keep your gaze fixed on Me not on yourself, not on your troubles, or sorrows but on Me, and you will discover joy in the midst of sorrow, courage in the midst of fear, peace in the time of turmoil, and love that will sustain you always. Remain in Me for my yoke is easy and my burden is light and the God of peace will make His home in you. Remain in My love.

WORD OF GOD - PVBS 24:33-34

PROVERBS 24:33-34

A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest,
and poverty will come upon you like a robber,
and want, like an armed warrior.

---- my own,

This is the story of your life - you will admit it if you are honest to yourself. You have habitually given in to the promptings of the flesh and this is why you have made so little progress in holiness. Each time you are self-indulgent, choose ease over doing the hard thing, the difficult thing you allow yourself to be robbed of grace. The evil one knows all your weaknesses better than you know them yourself and he knows when and how to slither in and quietly strike, he is so subtle you are not even aware that evil has won. But it is not too late. Wake up! This is the hour! Now is the time to keep watch and pray so you will not be led into temptation and the Father who loves you will come to you, comfort you, and enable you to become the daughter He created you to be. Do not be discouraged begin anew.

WORD OF GOD - ESTHER 5:6

ESTHER 5:6

While they were drinking wine, the king said to Esther, ‘What is your petition? It shall be granted you. And what is your request? Even to the half of my kingdom, it shall be fulfilled.’

---- mine,

At the Consecration of the bread and wine at every Eucharistic celebration, ask Me anything you wish and I will give it to you. The Kingdom of heaven is yours just as I AM wholly yours when you receive Me body, soul, and divinity into your soul. This is the moment to make all your requests known to Me and they shall be fulfilled for My Father delights in giving the fullness of the Holy Spirit to all who ask.

WORD OF GOD - DN 10:12

DANIEL 10:12

He said to me, ‘Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words have been heard, and I have come because of your words.

---- my own,

Heed My word to you today - fear nothing but trust in Me always. Stay in the shadow of My Love and you will know that I AM God and you are mine now and forever. Humility and obedience are the two virtues that I desire you to exercise constantly. Be humble in thought, word, and deed, listen and you will hear Me speak constantly and obey, no matter how difficult your flesh finds it to be subjugated to My will, do it. Remember, your struggles are not your own, I AM with you every step of the way to help you from this life all the way to heaven.

WORD OF GOD - PS50:14-15

PSALM 50:14-15

Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving,
and pay your vows to the Most High.
Call on me in the day of trouble; 
I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.’

---- mine,

Pay attention to My Word to you today and you will cease to complain that I do not hear you, do not answer you, do not come to your help and rescue you. What is it that I, require of you? Have you made the offering that is due to God, the Most High? Do you understand what a sacrifice of thanksgiving is? A Sacrifice of Thanksgiving was offered on the hill at Calvary - it was a complete self-donation of Myself to My Father according to His will for your sake and for the whole world. You in turn are called to do the same. You owe God everything. You owe Me everything. You owe the Holy Spirit everything. Give thanks constantly even for the things that you consider less than a blessing and you will begin to experience the power God. I will deliver you and you will glorify Me with every breath you breathe. Be still, give thanks, and know that I AM God.

WORD OF GOD - LK 15:21-24

LUKE 15:21-24

Then the son said to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.” But the father said to his slaves, “Quickly, bring out a robe—the best one—and put it on him; put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. And get the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and celebrate; for this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found!” And they began to celebrate.

---- mine,

I know you are a sinner, I know you have sinned, I know that you are sorry, contrite, ashamed. I am aware that your motives are not always pure for I who 
created you know you better than you know yourself. It is enough for Me to know that you are repentant, it is enough for Me that you desire to return to Me with all your heart. Remember that apart from Me you will die in your sins. You need My grace to live so each time you wander from the fold return to Me and no matter how gravely you have sinned you will discover that no sin can ever be greater than My mercy. Nothing is lost that cannot be restored a hundredfold through the merits I won for you on the Cross.

WORD OF GOD - LK 10:4-42

LUKE 10:40-42

But Martha was distracted by her many tasks; so she came to him and asked, ‘Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself? Tell her then to help me.’ But the Lord answered her, ‘Martha, Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things; there is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part, which will not be taken away from her.’

---- mine,

Of late many things have been troubling you and disturbing your peace even though you know that like Mary there is need of only one thing. Choose as Mary chose, the better part and the peace and joy that surpasses all understanding will be yours. Stay at My feet, learn from Me, cast all your burdens on Me, this is what I desire. I want to journey with you all the way from this life to the life that is to come in the Kingdom of God. Be not afraid either for yourself or those you love. I keep My promises.

WORD OF GOD - ROM 8:15-17

ROMANS 8:15-17

For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received a spirit of adoption. When we cry, ‘Abba! Father!’ it is that very Spirit bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ—if, in fact, we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.

---- mine,

Through Baptism you have been grafted into My Body, You have received My Spirit, You are privileged to address My Father as Abba, for He is your Father as well. All that I have My Father desires that I share with all His adopted sons and daughters hence everything that is Mine is yours as well. But for just a little while you will have to walk in the valley of tears and of suffering but be not afraid, I have overcome the world.

WORD OF GOD - MT 14:19-21

MATTHEW 14:19-21

Taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. And all ate and were filled; and they took up what was left over of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full. 
And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

---- mine,

Do not underestimate the power of God, My power, you do it all the time. Have no doubt when you pray, when you intercede, when you ask for favors either for yourself or for those you love, or for anyone who asks you to pray. Yes, I work not according to your will but Mine. I will do all you ask of Me in My time, in My way, according to My will but it will be done and you will be satisfied and your joy will run over. Pray constantly, bring all your needs to Me, nothing delights Me more than faith in Me and you will find that I never disappoint.

WORD OF GOD - JN 12:17-18

JOHN 12:17-18

So the crowd that had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to testify. It was also because they heard that he had performed this sign that the crowd went to meet him.

---- mine,

How many miracles have you witnessed in your own life and to how many have you testified? How often in the Sacrament of Reconciliation I have raised your soul from the dead and yet you continue to be lukewarm, to blow hot and cold, to take my love for you for granted. You continue in indifference and to a life lacking in discipline. You continue to exercise your will over mine especially when you find it even a little difficult. You are so easily distracted, so willing to take the easy route, the broad path. In the end, ---- mine, life for you will run its course and then comes judgment. My mercy and forgiveness in torrents are available to you now - tomorrow will be too late.
