JOHN 6:19-20 (2024)

JOHN 6:19-20

When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the lake and coming near the boat, and they were terrified. But he said to them,‘It is I; do not be afraid.’

---- mine,

It is I, ---- my own, do not be afraid. I AM with you now and always. Come to Me, lean on Me, tell Me your fears, your joys, your hopes, and your dreams for yourself and the ones you love so much. Am I not your Lord, your God, your Love, your Life, the Bridegroom of your soul? Why are you sad, why do you weep? I AM here with you, dry your tears and lift your face to Me. I love you. I died for you and for those you plead for night and day. Be still and know that I AM God, take Me into your life and rest in Me and in My love. Be not afraid. Fear nothing. Remain in Me and make my love your home.

JOHN 1:30-34 (2024)

JOHN 1:30-34

This is he of whom I said, “After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me because he was before me.” I myself did not know him; but I came baptizing with water for this reason, that he might be revealed to Israel.’ And John testified, ‘I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him. I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water said to me, “He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.”And I myself have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.’

---- mine,

I AM the Son of the Living God, I AM the One sent down from heaven to redeem the world. I AM the one crowned with thorns and nailed to the Cross as a ransom for the sins of the world. Why do you go about with worry weighing you down? Do you not know that because I, WHO AM, is for you no one can be against you? Where is your faith? Have you forgotten that I AM your deliverer, your redeemer, your Lord, and your God? Am I not the Bridegroom of your soul? You dishonor Me when your soul is downcast, lift up your eyes ---- my own, and dwell on the goodness and mercy of God who has cared for you so tenderly all the days of your life, who has watched over you, and met all your needs, who has given you more than you deserve and continues to love you and supply all your needs Remember, and count your blessings, I have never failed you and will never fail you neither will I fail those you love. Have faith! Believe! Trust! AND DO NOT WORRY!

MARK 1:31 (2024)

MARK 1:31

Jesus came and took her by the hand and lifted her up. 
Then the fever left her, and she began to serve them.

---- mine,

I came not to take angels by the hand but you and every human being. When I entered Peter's house I was told that his mother-in-law was sick with a high fever. I went to her, I took her by the hand, the fever left her at once and she got up and began to serve Me and those with Me. Each time you come to the Sacrament of Reconciliation and make your sins known to Me I take you by the hand and immediately you are restored to life. Go and confess your sins often do not neglect to receive this Sacrament lest the fever of sin increases and causes your body, soul, and spirit to grow weak and your will becomes lethargic through lack of grace. And once you are healed and grace is restored and you are strengthened you must begin to serve with renewed purpose and vigor. Remember that I came to serve not to be served and to give My life as a ransom for many and so must you spend your life in service for the servant is not greater than the Master.

ISAIAH 46:3-4 (2024)

ISAIAH 46:3-4

....... I have cared for since you were conceived,
and carried since you were born.
Even to your old age, I am he
and I will sustain you even when your hair turns gray.
It is I who have done this, and who bear the burdens,
I will sustain and save you.

---- mine,

Why do you worry? Why do you rob yourself of the joy and peace that belongs to the children of God, to those who have been redeemed by Me and are grafted to My Body? Why do you live as if you had no Father, Brother, Helper, Redeeer, Savior, Brother, and Spouse? O you of little faith why do you live as if you were a beggar when you are co-heir with Me to the Kingdom of God and heir to all the treasures of the Kingdom of Heaven? ---- my own, lift up your head look at Me, and know how great is the Father's love for you that He has numbered you and all those you love among His children. Be of good cheer for I have overcome the world. Believe, I urge you, and live as one who is redeemed and set free, you are no longer a slave. A slave does know what the master is doing; you do for you are my friend, my sister, my delight, and I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father because you are Mine.

LUKE 21:33 (2024)

LUKE 21:33

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

---- mine,

All that My Father has to say He has said in and through Me. I AM the Eternal Word, I AM the only begotten Son of the Living God, I AM WHO AM the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I have not left you orphaned but have given you My Holy Spirit. He abides in you and He makes known to you all that I have said. Remain in Him and you will remain in My love. Why are you troubled? Why are you afraid? Why do you allow doubts to cloud your heart and your spirit and fill you with gloom? Do you not know yet that I AM your Spouse, your Savior, your Redeemer - I AM God is anything too difficult for Me? All times, all seasons, and all circumstances are under My authority and control. Have confidence in Me, this boldness that whatever you ask the Father in My Name and according to His will He hear and He will grant it to you. Have faith, be still, and trust Me in the end My hand will save and you will rejoice exceedingly. Be of good cheer ---- my own, I have overcome the world.

MATTHEW 4:4 (2024)

MATTHEW 4:4

But Jesus answered, ‘It is written, “One does not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.”

---- mine,

I AM the Eternal Word of God - My Father has but One Word, the Eternal Word. This Word issued forth from Him by the breath of the Holy Spirit. By the power of the Word, He called forth light, life, and order from darkness and chaos. This Word created you and the breath of the Holy Spirit keeps you alive. By the power of the Word, ---- my own, you live, move, and have your being. Without the Word of Life to nourish you, you would die. You have greater need of the Bread of Angels than earthly bread for without this Manna from Heaven you will surely perish. When you eat the Flesh of the Son of Man in the Eucharist you are drawn into the love and life of God - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. You will not perish as you ascend Mount Zion, the City of God but will receive all the grace and strength you need to persevere till the end.

LUKE 5:3-6 (2024)

LUKE 5:3-6

Jesus got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the boat. When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, ‘Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch.’ Simon answered, ‘Master, we have worked all night long but have caught nothing. Yet if you say so, I will let down the nets.’ When they had done this, they caught so many fish that their nets were beginning to break.

---- mine,

The crowds were pressing around Me on the shore all of them eager to hear the Word of God, the Eternal Word, the Incarnate Word speak and teach. To make myself better heard I got into one of the two boats the one belonging to Simon and asked him to take it a little from the shore. It was not a random but deliberate choice as everything in Scripture is, everything in God's Word is a promise, a revelation, and fulfillment. Simon's boat represents the Church I founded - I AM its Cornerstone and Peter is the Rock on which I have built it and you, ---- my own, and your family are in this Boat and the gates of hell shall never prevail against it. Put out into the deep unless you do all your endeavors will yield nothing. Leave the shore with all its vain distractions and in obedience to My Word, let down your net which represents your dreams, your ideas, your aspirations, your will, and be prepared to be wonderstruck and amazed at what God can do when you yield, surrender, submit in humility to My will. Your heart will not be able to contain the tidal wave of graces and blessings that the Holy Spirit will pour on you and everyone you bring with you to Me.

MATTHEW 11:28-30 (2024)

MATTHEW 11:28-30

‘Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.’

---- mine,

My yoke is love, it is a sweet burden when you respond to My invitation to be yoked to Me. Being yoked to Me does not hinder nor restrict your movement but you are free to do all that is good, true, right, fitting, and beautiful. To be yoked to divine love is to walk in freedom and in the light of wisdom. Love makes all things possible. Put on My nature and you put on love. There is no sorrow, no difficulty, no trial, no loss, no cross that is not made sweeter, lighter, and easier to bear when you love with the love of God. Ponder this truth, the Father loved you so much that while you were yet a sinner He sent Me to die for you and guarantee you a share in His Kingdom as co-heir with Me. Come, rest in Me, live in Me, and make your home in Me. You have nothing to fear for I have overcome the world.

MATTHEW 1:19-21 (2024)

MATTHEW 1:19-21

Her husband Joseph, being a righteous man and unwilling to expose her to public disgrace, planned to dismiss her quietly. But just when he had resolved to do this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, ‘Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.



---- mine,

You may have many plans for yourself, your spouse, and children but God's plans are far better than anything you can conceive for them. Set aside what you think is best and rely on Me to do what I know is best. The final destination for all God's children is the Kingdom of God. My Father wills that all who are called by My Name, all who believe in Me, and all who follow Me closely be saved from their sins. Do not be afraid, ---- my own, to embrace God's plans for yourself, your spouse, and your children. The Father knows best how to bless, correct, strengthen, heal, and fulfill all His promises. As for you, keep doing what you are doing now continue to pray, fast, give alms, and do all this with faith and hope, and do not worry. Trust God, trust Me.

LUKE 12:6-7 (2024)

LUKE 12:6-7

Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten in God’s sight. But even the hairs of your head are all counted. Do not be afraid; you are of more value than many sparrows.

---- mine,

For as long as you need to hear Me reassuring you of My love and the Father's love for you and for those you love I will keep doing so. You and your loved ones are precious in My sign and of infinite worth. Your value is so great that God considered your salvation worth the sacrifice of His only Son. My Father gave Me up to death so you could have life in abundance. Think of the intimacy of God's love for you and for those you love and pray for daily with many tears and with a great burden on your heart. He has counted every hair on their heads and yours. Have faith, ---- my own, each of you is of greater value than many sparrows. Once again I tell you, DO NOT BE AFRAID. Fear has no place in love. Faith the size of a mustard seed has the power to move mountains. Believe that in all things, in each of your lives, I AM working for good. I know the plans I have for you, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give each one of you a future with hope. Be of good cheer, ---- my own, I have overcome the world.

JEREMIAH 12:3A

JEREMIAH 12:3

But you, O Lord, know me;
You see me and test me—my heart is with you.

---- mine,

Before you were formed in the womb I knew, I called you by name to be Mine. In all the testing times of your life, I have purified you, strengthened you, and weeded out all that was unholy and sinful in your life. I root out all your weaknesses in the time of your adversity for it is then that your spirit is most pliable. You have given Me not just your heart but you have entrusted your life to Me. Be assured ---- my own, that I who have taken you by the hand will lead you through all the dangerous highways and byways of life safely to the Kingdom of God. Remain in My love always.

PSALM 9:9-10 (2024)

PSALM 9:9-10

The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
And those who know your name put their trust in you,
for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.

---- mine,

You have Me as your Lord, your God, the beloved of your soul, and with Me, ---- my own you have no need to fear anything. Each time you have lifted up your face to me in times of trouble I have come to your aid and have delivered you. You know My Name, it is the Christ, the Anointed One of God, it is Emmanuel, God with us, it is Jesus, One who saves. When you are afraid you call My Name constantly, it is on your lips and in your heart, and because you have placed all your hope and trust in Me I will never ever forsake you. All who seek Me will find Me. You seek Me morning after morning before dawn has broken and give Me the first hours of your day. I know you, I want you to remember this well and never forget it - YOU ARE MINE IN TIME AND IN ETERNITY. Come to Me, confide all your sorrows, trials, and difficulties to Me, rest in My Heart and I will give peace, comfort, and rest to your soul. Trust Me!

PSALM 18:1-3, 16 (2024)

PSALM 18:1-3, 16

I love you, O Lord, my strength.
The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer,
my God, my rock in whom I take refuge,
my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised;
so I shall be saved from my enemies.

He reached down from on high, he took me;
he drew me out of mighty waters.

---- mine,

All that the psalmist says of Me in these verses are words you echo - words of faith, hope, love, and confidence in Me for you know them to be true. I AM all this and more. I AM the God who saves you, the God who redeemes you, the God who takes you by the hand and leads you. I AM the God of love who comforts you, shields you, and protects you from the snares that the Enemy is constantly laying out for you. I AM the God who saves and I AM with you always. Be not afraid, ---- my own, be not afraid for fear paralyzes, fear renders you unable to trust Me who am worthy of trust. Keep your gaze on Me, not on the storm. Listen for My Voice not the sound of the howling wind and the crashing of the waves around you. No harm will come to you for I have reached down from heaven and grasped you firmly by your hand and I draw you into Me. You are safe. Be still, be of good cheer. I always hear you and at a time of My choosing, I will grant you all that you pray and plead for every day. Have faith. I have won the victory and you share in My triumph.

MARK 8:25 (2024)

MARK 8:25

Then Jesus laid his hands on his eyes again and the man could see perfectly. His sight was restored and he could see everything clearly.

---- mine,

As often as you permit Me to place My hands over your eyes the better will you see and understand My will for you, My plans for your life and for those you love. Faith is not a one-time experience but a life-long journey of growth in the spiritual life. You are weak, you fall any number of times a day, and getting up can sometimes be a struggle if you give in to your feelings and take your gaze off Me. The more you lean on Me, rely on Me, and trust Me despite not seeing clearly the stronger will your faith grow and you will see with the eyes of faith that God's ways are better than yours, that God's will is better than your will, and that God's plans for you and for those you love so dearly are far better than anything that you can hope or conceive for them. Choose to trust Me, ---- my own, trust Me in all things and you will always walk in the light of faith, truth, and grace.

MATTHEW 21:22 (2024)

MATTHEW 21:22
‘Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive.’

---- mine,

Do you have this kind of faith? A robust faith that is quite confident that all it asks the Father for will be granted? Do you believe that you have this filial relationship with God that when you pray and make all your needs known to Him He will hear and He will answer you favorably? When you pray come to God as a little child. Make your needs known to Him simply trusting that your Father already knows what you need and then rest in Him confident that all you ask for He will grant for He is your Father, your Maker, your Creator. He gives you the life of His Son, and I, in turn, have given you My Spirit. Be of good cheer ---- my own, I have conquered the world. Pray without ceasing giving thanks to God for everything and the God of all goodness, all love, all mercy, and all compassion will grant you everything you need in abundance. Trust Me. Trust the Father. Pray always in the power of the Holy Spirit and be at peace.

MARK 5:36B (2024)

MARK 5:36B

‘Do not fear, only believe.’ 

---- mine,

Once again I say to you as I have said so often, do not be afraid not for yourself nor for those you love and pray for each day. Am I not their Savior, their Redeemer, their Healer just as I AM yours? I hear you, I see you, I AM close to you - I AM GOD. Have faith that assures you even when you are in the middle of the storm and the boat of your life is being tossed about by mighty waves and the keening sound of the winds deafens you I AM with you. I will never forsake you because you are Mine. I purchased your life with Mine and not just yours but I paid the price for the debt of the whole world. Be not afraid ---- my own, cast out all fear and doubt for I say to you again today and always, 'DO NOT FEAR, ONLY BELIEVE.'

MATTHEW 23:11-12 (2024)

 MATTHEW 23:11-12

The greatest among you will be your servant. 
All who exalt themselves will be humbled, 
and all who humble themselves will be exalted.

---- mine,

In a world where everyone wants to lord it over the other, I want you to always bear in mind that I came to serve not to be served, and to give My life as a ransom for many. This is what you too must desire, to be a servant, to serve, to be available to anyone in need. Do not become closed in on yourself, your needs, and your desires, rather have a docile, sensitive, humble spirit. Be watchful, keep your eyes and ears open to the cry of the little ones, the poor, the lonely, the hurt, the suffering. Do not glance over those whose eyes are on you hoping for your assistance. You may not be able to do much but you can listen, sympathize, be present, and attentive to those who have no one to share their sorrows. Ask always for the grace to remain humble, little, the least for nothing is so pleasing to Me than the meek. Emulate Me. It is in giving that you receive, and in dying to yourself that you are born to eternal life.

MARK 3:34-35 (2024)

MARK 3:34-35

And looking at those who sat around him, Jesus said, ‘Here are my mother and my brothers! Whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother.’

---- mine,

The Way to the Father is revealed to you and to the whole world and is visible to all who desire the Kingdom of God. You have been given Mary, My Mother as your model, you have the lives of the saints help up so you can imitate their virtues. You have Sacred Scripture and the Teaching of Holy Mother Church so you can walk the narrow way without falling or going astray. Pay close attention to what I say to you this day, ---- my own, do you wish to be my mother, my sister, then seek the will of God in all things and do I, and your life will be serene. Nothing will disturb the tranquility of your soul. Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and you will receive everything else besides, pressed down, shaken together, and spilling over for God is a generous lover and giver of every good and perfect gift.

ECCLESIASTICUS 34:19-20 (2024)

 ECCLESIASTICUS 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.

---- mine,

Morning after morning you come to Me bringing Me all your troubles, anxieties, and fears.  You reveal all your wounds, often with tears and a heart filled with sorrow, and each time I console you. I place My arms around you and assure you that all is well. I have heard your prayers, wiped your tears, and assured you that I AM with you and that you do not walk alone. Look to the past and see how I have always helped you, carried you, and answered your prayers and I assure you that I will continue to watch over you and keep you safe from the wiles of the Enemy Do not fear ---- my own, I have overcome the world, I AM victorious and you share in My victory. Be of good cheer knowing that the God of heaven and earth loves you, knows you, has carved your name on His hand, and loves everyone you love and pray for far more than you ever could. Have faith. Believe. All is well for I AM God and nothing is too difficult for Me.

MARK 10:27 (2024)

MARK 10:27

Jesus looked at them and said, 
‘For mortals it is impossible, but not for God; 
for God all things are possible.’

---- mine,

All your life I have cared for you as tenderly as a father and mother have watched over their infant. Do not worry, trust in Me. I know that there are many challenges ahead of you but with Me at your side you will overcome all of them. For your part, remain faithful. Have faith. Pray with confidence knowing that in all things God works for good for those who love Him. There are some things that presently lie heavy on your heart and mind - I know what they are and I say to you again, know that I AM God, nothing is impossible for Me. I open doors no one can shut and I shut doors no one can open. Believe in Me and believe in the One who sent Me. Be at peace, ---- my own, I have overcome the world.

DANIEL 10:12 (2024)

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.

---- mine,

Fear must have no room in your heart for you belong to God. You call Him Father, you call Me Brother, and you rely on the Holy Spirit who abides in you as your Helper, Comforter, and Paraclete how then can you be anxious, worried, terrified, sad, downcast when you have all the powers of heaven on your side? I have assured you daily, and every time you turn to Me that I AM with you and you have nothing to be anxious about concerning your children - AM I NOT GOD - is anything too difficult for Me? Cast your burdens on to Me because I care for you. Be not afraid I have heard you and I have answered you, I will always answer you. Let not your heart be troubled trust in Me now and always. I AM with you always. Trust Me with all your heart and I will grant you your heart's desires. Be of good cheer I have overcome the world.

PSALM 138:6B-8 (2024)

PSALM 138:6B-8

For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly;
Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
you preserve me against the wrath of my enemies;
you stretch out your hand,
and your right hand delivers me.
The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me;
your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands.

---- mine,

When you call My Name I will deliver you. I am your God and you have been Mine since the foundation of the world. Fear nothing! Be strong! Let not your heart be overcome by fear and doubts! Am I not Your God who has delivered you mightily from the snares of the Enemy always? Be still and know that I AM WHO AM and I will never leave you nor will I forsake you. I will be with you and all those for whom you plead constantly with sighs, tears, and groans and I assure you that I will deliver them all for My Name's sake. I AM God, is anything too difficult for Me? Trust Me!

MATTHEW 18:12-14 (2024)

MATTHEW 18:12-14

What do you think? If a shepherd has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go in search of the one that went astray? And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray. So it is not the will of your Father in heaven that one of these little ones should be lost.

---- mine,

Every person who ever lived, lived, and will live is cared for as tenderly by God as that one sheep who strayed from the fold. Not a single soul entrusted to Me by My Father will be lost for they are given to Me by Him. You belong to the Father and all that belongs to the Father belongs to His Son. This is why I say you are Mine and I will keep you with Me, I will watch over you and care for you. I will seek you when you are lost, I will look for you until I find you and carry you back to My Father's house. And not just you, ---- my own, but also those for whom you pray with sighs and tears, and with a broken heart. You cannot desire their salvation more than My Father does, He sent Me into the world to redeem the world not condemn it. Have faith! Pray without ceasing, but pray with this confidence that in the end, they will come to the knowledge of Truth and be saved.

LUKE 7:22-23 (2024)

LUKE 7:22-23

And he answered the messengers, ‘Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have good news brought to them. And blessed is anyone who takes no offense at me.’


---- mine,

I give you and every other disciple the same message that I gave the messengers of John when he sent them to find out if I was the one or if they were to wait for another. Having heard the reports of Me spreading through the entire region he wanted to have what he heard confirmed by Me. What about you, ---- my own? What is your experience of Me in your life? Do you speak of Me to others? Do you make known to all you meet what I have done for you and for those you love? Have you shared with others how times without number I walked with you, talked with you, carried you and your burdens, consoled you, raised you to life over and over again in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, nourished you, also times without number with My Body and Blood, and blessed you with a superabundance of blessings always? Have you shared the Good News of salvation with anyone, especially by the way you live your life?  Your life must be a megaphone announcing what God has done for you and continues to do for you and your loved ones so all who meet you encounter Me in you.

PSALM 22:24B, 26-29 (2024)

PSALM 22:24-29


He did not hide his face from me,
but heard when I cried to him.

The poor shall eat and be satisfied;
those who seek him shall praise the Lord.
May your hearts live forever!

All the ends of the earth shall remember
and turn to the Lord;
and all the families of the nations
shall worship before him.

For dominion belongs to the Lord,
and he rules over the nations.

To him, indeed, shall all who sleep in the earth bow down;
before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,
and I shall live for him.

 

In every Adoration Chapel, across the globe, I AM present. Here You see Me and speak to Me face to face. At every Holy Mass, all that happened in the last three days of My life on earth is made present. You receive Life-giving Bread and drink of the Saving Cup which is My Body and Blood and are satisfied for it is here you receive life in abundance.

 All who attend daily Mass and come faithfully on the Day of the Lord to celebrate the Holy Eucharist are witnesses that all dominion, all authority, and power is given to Me by My Father. I rule over the nations.

 

And when My faithful disciples are laid to rest, their souls will rise and be seated at the Banquet Table and with all the angels and saints will worship, adore, and sing the unending praises of God with great rejoicing as they feast at the Lord’s Table eternally.

MATTHEW 12:19-21 (2024)

MATTHEW 12:19-21

He will not argue or shout, 
nor will his voice be heard in the streets. 
The bruised reed he will not crush, 
nor snuff out the smoldering wick 
until he brings justice to victory, 
and in him, all the nations will put their hope.

---- mine,

I do not desire the death of the sinner but that every man, woman, and child be saved. The whole purpose of the incarnation was to accomplish the will of My Father to save the whole world. God so loved the world, that He sent Me, His only Son, that whoever believes in Me, should not perish but have eternal life. You are familiar with this Scripture verse - believe it for it is true. I pursue the sinner relentlessly and surround the sinner with love. I will woo, cajole, plead, and draw with the sweetest and tenderest of words to bring them to contrition, repentance, and confession and I will restore a hundred-fold all that they had so recklessly squandered. Be not afraid for your children, ---- my own, nor for those whom you love and pray for each day. Be faithful in prayer and confident in hope, that all you ask for will be granted by My Father in heaven for the sake of My sorrowful passion.

JONAH 2:6-7 (2024)

JONAH 2:6-7

At the roots of the mountains.
I went down to the land
whose bars closed upon me forever;
yet you brought up my life from the Pit,
O Lord my God.
As my life was ebbing away,
I remembered the Lord;
and my prayer came to you,
into your holy temple.

---- mine,

I went into the very depths of the netherworld to save you. I grasped you by the hand and I lifted you up. Never at any time in your life when your foot was slipping have I let go of you. Never at any moment in your life have I abandoned you but I have come looking for you and have found you. Each time you reached out for Me I grasped your hand. Continue to cling to Me with faith, hope, trust, and love, and believe always that I hear and answer you. Pray constantly for yourself and those who are nearest and dearest to you, pray also for the whole world. I hear every prayer, every sigh, every longing. My lips are never far from your ear and My ear is close to your lips. Have confidence in the saving power of My life, My Passion, My death, and My glorious resurrection and ascension into heaven. By My wounds, you are healed. Rejoice and be glad and give thanks unceasingly for the mercies of God which never end.

LUKE 7:22-23 (2024)

LUKE 7:22-23

And Jesus answered them, ‘Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have good news brought to them. And blessed is anyone who takes no offence at me.’

---- mine,

Your mission is to go and tell what you have seen, heard, and experienced in your own life. What I have said to all who heard Me I also say to every believer, every follower, every disciple, everyone who is called by My Name. Continue to pray, to hope, and do not worry for the salvation of your loved ones. AM I, not the Lord? AM I, not God? Is anything too difficult for Me? Do not look at the sinful world and the evil deeds of those who have walked away from Me. The Pharisees, scribes, and the chief priests of this present day continue to persecute Me, to mock Me, to crucify Me for whatever they do to My little ones who are called by My Name, they do to Me. But be of good cheer, ---- my own, I have overcome the world. Stay close to the Cross and carry your own cross daily without murmuring. I carry it with you so you will not be crushed under its weight. Walk with Me. Stay with Me. Abide in Me and I will abide in you. Be still and know that I AM God and I love you. I have claimed you for Myself. Remain in My love.

MATTHEW 16:4 (2024)

MATTHEW 16:4
‘An evil and adulterous generation asks for a sign, 
but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.’ 
Then he left them and went away.


---- mine,

The greatest sign of all is the Sign of the Cross and all that was accomplished through it. Open your heart, mind, soul, and whole being to the purpose of redemptive suffering unless you do you will reject every other sign for there is no sign greater than the Cross. The more the world gives way to evil the easier it is to reject and resent the daily crosses that are necessary for salvation. Every disciple must embrace suffering there is no easy way to the Father's house except through the Cross. Keep your gaze fixed on Me and emulate Me. Unless you lose your life for My sake and for the sake of the Gospel you cannot enter the Kingdom of God.

PSALM 91:9-12 (2024)

PSALM 91:9-12

Because you have made the Lord your refuge,
   the Most High your dwelling-place,
no evil shall befall you,
   no scourge come near your tent.

For he will command his angels concerning you
   to guard you in all your ways.
On their hands they will bear you up,
   so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.

---- mine,

As always, once again I assure you that I AM with you. Do not permit anything to disturb the peace that is My gift to you but cling to Me and place all your hope in Me. I have never failed you and I never will. Be strong in My love. Pray, hope, do not give way to anxiety. I have placed My mantle of protection over you and your household because you are Mine. You are members of the household of God. Have I not told you that I AM with you? Have I not claimed you for Myself? My right hand will deliver you. Be still and know that I AM God and I love you and care for you. Trust in Me.

PSALM 132:13-18 (2024)

PSALM 132:13-18



For the Lord has chosen Zion;
he has desired it for his habitation:
‘This is my resting-place forever;
here I will reside, for I have desired it. I will abundantly bless its provisions; I will satisfy its poor with bread. Its priests I will clothe with salvation, and its faithful will shout for joy. There I will cause a horn to sprout up for David; I have prepared a lamp for my anointed one. His enemies I will clothe with disgrace, but on him, his crown will gleam.’

---- mine,

The Rock on which My Church stands is the place of My habitation. Here it pleases Me to dwell in spirit and in truth. This is My abode, My resting place forever. The Church is My Bride and I delight in her. I lay down My Life for her and her life flows from My Spirit to her in torrents of grace. I provide for all her needs through the Sacraments I instituted. Through the power of My Spirit abiding in her, she receives, in superabundant measure, My grace, mercy, and love. I bless her from the rising of the sun to its setting. Her Bishops and priests, clothed with salvation by My authority are anointed, consecrated, and empowered by Me to minister to My Church, My Body, My people called by My Name. 

The Father sent Me into the world to be its Light. I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and having died for her I have received everlasting Crown of Salvation. 

Never forget, ----, my own, that you and all your loved ones for whom you pray for grace and mercy night and day belong to the family of God. As members of My Body, they are children of the household of God and heirs to My Kingdom. Pray, hope, and trust with confidence. And do not not worry.

TOBIT 7:17 (2024)

TOBIT 7:17

“Have courage, my child, 
the God of heaven and earth 
will change your sorrow into joy.
Have confidence, my daughter!”



---- mine,

Take these words to heart. Claim My assurance to you today. Be of good cheer knowing that the God of heaven and earth has stooped low over you, has heard you, and granted all that you have been asking for in prayer with tears, and sorrow too deep for words. I will turn your sorrow to joy, I will turn your groans of moaning to laughter. Your heart will rejoice and be filled with peace. Believe, have confidence that all I have said I will do. Just believe!

MATTHEW 22:37-39 (2024)

MATTHEW 22:37-39

Jesus said to him, ‘ “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.” This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

---- mine,

Do you fully understand what it means to love God with your entire being? All you are and have belongs to God. You are created for eternity, created to belong wholly to Him. You do not belong to yourself, or to any creature, nor do you belong to the world or the netherworld. You are bound for heaven. You are purchased, you are ransomed, you are not your own. You have been redeemed by the Son of God who became Man for your sake. I died so you could live a new life of grace, beauty, and truth. You also belong to your neighbor for every human being is a child of God and you are commanded by Your Father who is their Father too, to love every one of His children as much as you love yourself. If you desire to live filled with peace and joy in this life keep these two commandments and My peace and joy that surpasses all human understanding will find a home in you. Remain in My love, ---- my own, and you will remain in God.

PSALM 102:28

PSALM 102:28

The children of your servants shall live secure; 
their offspring shall be established in your presence.

---- mine,

Do not be discouraged or sad, do not allow worry to rob you of your peace. All things work for good for those who love Me and you love Me I know you do. So take heart. Have courage. I AM God and I will never leave you nor will I abandon you or your loved ones. I hear you. I have seen your tears and I wipe them away. Have faith. Believe. Hope. Trust. In the hand, just as I have promised you, My hand will save. My hand will save. Be of good cheer I have overcome the world.

PSALM 107:8-9 (2024)

PSALM 107:8-9

Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, 
for his wonderful works to humankind.
For he satisfies the thirsty,
and the hungry he fills with good things

---- mine,

Thank Me in all circumstances do not think that this is good and that is bad, all things work for good for those who love Me, trust Me, and place all their hope and confidence in Me for they know that with God all things are possible. There is no situation in your life over which I have no control. Nothing occurs without My knowledge and with My allowing it for your good. I love you today, tomorrow, and forever - My love is unchanging, unlike yours which flickers, waxes, and wanes like the moon depending on your feelings and emotions. My love is unchanging, infinite, boundless, and not dependent on anything - I love because I AM love. Nothing but I can satisfy your hunger and thirst. Feed on Me and on My Word. Drink for Me and you will have life in abundance. Remain in Me and let My Word find a home in you and you will know peace that surpasses all understanding. Remain in My love.

ISAIAH 25:8-9 (2024)

ISAIAH 25:8-9

He will swallow up death forever.
Then the Lord God will wipe away the tears from all faces,
and the disgrace of his people he will take away from all the earth,
for the Lord has spoken.
It will be said on that day,
Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, so that he might save us.
This is the Lord for whom we have waited;
let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

---- mine,

Death has been swallowed up forever - dying I destroyed death, rising I restored life. I wipe away tears from all eyes. All who have lost their way will be rescued and saved rejoice and there will be great rejoicing for salvation belongs to all who believe that the Father sent Me into the world not to condemn it but to save it. Keep your gaze fixed on the Cross and remember always that you have been ransomed the debt you owed is paid and you are free to love God as you ought. Remain in My love and pray unceasingly and tirelessly but always with hope for all to know Me and come to the knowledge of Truth. Salvation comes from knowing the One who lay down His lay while you were yet sinners. Rejoice and be glad always and pray with faith and hope knowing that you and all the baptized are sealed in the Holy Spirit by irrevocable bonds of love and are now one with the Triune God. Do not worry do not be anxious do not lose heart, God desires the salvation of all and in due time God will hear and answer you as He has always done. I will never forsake those who are Mine and you, ---- my own, are Mine.

PSALM 46:10-11 (2024)

PSALM 46:10-11

‘Be still, and know that I am God!
I am exalted among the nations,
I am exalted in the earth.’

The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.

---- mine,

Today, the Church honors Joseph as her protector. He is appointed by God as Lord of His household. He is by God's will and good pleasure, prince over all God's possessions. Emulate his virtues, especially those most pleasing to Him, humility, prompt obedience to the will of God, and silence. It is not a passive silence but one that is alive and focused on listening attentively to God and doing His will without hesitation. Asleep or awake his whole being was in tune with the heart, the mind, and the will of God as he was put in charge of the infinite treasures of God, His only well-beloved Son, and the fairest of all His creatures, His daughter, Mary, My Mother. Love My foster father as I loved him. Trust in his ability to obtain for you, along with My Mother, all that you need to sojourn from this life to the life that is to come. Ask him and he will obtain for you rich graces for I, who obeyed him on earth, continue to do all he asks of Me in heaven. Stay close to Joseph, and you will stay close to the Triune God and to My Mother.
