MARK 11:23-24 (2025)

MARK 11:23-24

Truly, I say to you, if you say to this mountain, 

‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ 

and have no doubt in your heart, 

but believe that what you say will happen, 

it will be done for you. 

Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, 

believe that you have received it, 

and it shall be done for you.

---- mine,

There is nothing that you ask of Me in faith I will deny you. If you truly believe in Me, you will do all I ask. You will obey and do as I command. Your only and dearest wish must be to listen closely and be attentive to the voice of the Holy Spirit, who will reveal to you moment by moment what is required of you, what is pleasing to Me and to My Father, and He will provide all the grace and help you need to do it. Be submissive and yielding, be prepared to surrender your will wholly and completely, and embrace Mine. Then you can be assured that all you ask of Me in faith will be granted you. Do you know what you should ask for? Ask as King Solomon did. He could have asked for anything, but instead chose to ask for that which was most needful for him to be a good and wise ruler over the people. So too must you ask for that which is needful for you and those you love to flourish in the virtues. Ask and you will receive all the graces and blessings you need to live a life pleasing to My Father. Ask for a greater love for God and for your neighbour, and then, in faith, believing that you have received what you have asked for, serve Me by serving those around you, knowing that it is I whom you love, serve, and minister to. See Me in those around you and love Me, who is truly present not only in you but also in those around you.

LUKE 8:45-48 (2025)

LUKE 8:45-48

Jesus said, “Who touched me?” Everyone denied it; 

and Peter said, “Master, the crowd is pushing all around you.” 

But Jesus insisted, “Someone touched me, for I felt power go out from me.” 

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,

I know your touch, I recognize it, but I do not wish you to be afraid to do so. Do not be afraid; I love you. This is why you do not need to hide yourself or steal a touch surreptitiously. You have faith, use it boldly. Come up to Me, take My Hand, and ask for all that you desire. AM I not your God, your Brother, your Redeemer, your Friend, the Bridegroom of your Soul? Then why be afraid? I AM yours and you are Mine. Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you. Nothing delights Me more than to have you come up to be boldly with childlike simplicity and confidence, certain that whatever it is you ask of Me, you will receive. Be not afraid, ---- my own, it pleases Me as well as My Father in heaven to give the Kingdom of God to whoever asks.  You are a daughter of God, and the Gates of Heaven are opened wide for you. All who belong to Me may enter, and those who are weak, sick, the lame, the blind, the deaf, I will lead and I will carry. Pray constantly for the salvation of those you love. Pray with faith, pray with confidence, and I will save by the power of My Name.

MATTHEW 14:27-33 (2025)

MATTHEW 14:27-33

27 But at once, Jesus said to them, “Courage! Don’t be afraid. It’s me!” 28 Peter answered, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” 29 Jesus said to him, “Come!” And Peter got out of the boat, and walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But seeing the strong wind, he was afraid, and began to sink; and he cried out, “Lord, save me!” 31 Jesus immediately stretched out his hand and took hold of him, saying, “Man of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 As they got into the boat, the wind dropped. 33 Then those in the boat bowed down before Jesus, saying, “Truly, you are the Son of God!”

---- mine,

You need never be afraid, and even when you are, all you need to do is call out to Me, and before the words escape your lips, you will find Me beside you. I will take you by the hand, I will calm your fears, I will fill you with peace. Am I not the Bridegroom of your soul, am I not your Brother, your Redeemer, your Savior, your closest Friend, and your most ardent Divine Lover? Why then do you permit doubt, fears, anxieties, troubling questions to fill your mind, your heart, soul, and spirit and allow yourself to be filled with turmoil like the churning waves, and the storms of your fearful thoughts which like a mighty wind toss you about and overwhelm and threaten to sink you in the depths of the ocean of discouragement and fear? Have faith, ---- my own, do not look at the storm of emotions, and fears with which Satan tempts you, it is a ploy to separate you from Me and My love. Have faith and even with the scrap of faith you have, reach out to Me, take hold of My hand which is always stretched out to you, and I assure you I will grasp it and I will never let go. With me, you will enter the Boat, which is My Sacred Heart, My Church, and there I will keep you safe. I will nourish you, I will cradle you to My breast. I will comfort you and I will feed you with the finest wheat, the Bread of Angels, Manna from Heaven, and fill your mouth with the sweetest of wine, My Sacred Blood, and I will be your God and you will be My own in time and in eternity.

DANIEL 6:23B (2025)

DANIEL 6:23B

No wound was found on him, for he had trusted in his God.

---- mine,

Trust in Me with all your heart with a childlike trust, knowing that all who trust in Me will never trust in vain. Come to Me, lay your weary head on My breast. Lean on Me. Draw from My strength. Permit Me to touch and heal all your wounds in heart, mind, soul, body, and spirit. Allow My Presence and My Life to permeate into your whole being. Cling to Me, keep your hand in Mine, and never let go, and I will lead you in safety to the place that My Father has prepared for you from all eternity and before He laid the foundations of the world. Come to Me when life is too much for you and tell me everything. Confide all to Me. I AM here. My ear is always inclined to you. Tell Me everything your joys, your sorrows, your regrets, your sins, your failures, your hopes, your dreams, your plans. I want to know all. I love hearing all that you have to say. Keep Me company, ---- my own. Remember Me often during the day, lift the eyes of your soul to Me, and you will find Me gazing at you because I love you. Remain in My love.

PSALM 17:6-8 (2025)

PSALM 17:6-8

I call on you, you will answer me, 

O God; incline your ear and hear my word.

For you do wonders for your faithful, 

you save those fleeing from the enemy 

as they seek refuge at your right hand.

Keep me as the apple of your eye; 

under the shadow of your wings hide me.

---- mine,

These verses are My answer to your prayers. Morning after morning, you come before Me and through the day you lift up your heart, mind, and soul to Me. I know you. I am always before you. I hear you and I, as many times in the past as I have assure you that I AM with you always, I do so again and I will do so as often as you come before Me, plead with Me, and ask Me, I will do so and I will not tire of assuring you of My love for you, My faithfulness, and that I will save everyone for whom you plead. I came to seek and save the lost. This is the mission entrusted to Me by My Father - to seek the lost sheep that belong to Him, and this I will faithfully. Did I not lay down My life for My sheep? Do I not feed them with My own Flesh and Blood? Have I not washed each one of them clean with the Blood and Water that flowed from My pierced hands, feet, and side? Have I not sealed them in My Spirit? How then can I forget? Neither will My Father. How can He forget a single soul who was bought so dearly - He will not. We will guard every one of them just as we guard you as the apple of my eye and keep you always under the shadow of My protective love. Have faith, ---- My own, it pleases My Father to give the Kingdom to all who believe in Me, His Son.

JEREMIAH 33:2-3 (2025)

JEREMIAH 33:2-3

He who made the earth,

who fashioned and established it, 

he whose Name is the Lord, is speaking to you, 

“Call me and I shall answer.

I will reveal to you great and mysterious things you have not known.”

---- mine,

Call Me, think of Me, let My Name echo with every heartbeat, every beat of your pulse. Breathe My Name with every breath you breathe. Keep Me closer to you than yourself. Let Me be one with you as I AM one with My Father and the Holy Spirit, and I will draw you into this unity of divine love. One with you, I will draw your nothingness into the fullness of divine life and love. Keep Me ever before you in all that you do and say. Every waking moment and even as you sleep, be aware of Me within you, above you, beside you, around you. Let My love for you permeate every cell of your being. I AM the Eternal Word of the Father that issues forth from Him by the Breath of the Holy Spirit of Truth and of Love. ---- my own, I love with a love that is beyond anything you can ever dream, imagine, or comprehend. My gaze is always on you, I watch over you more tenderly than a mother watches over her infant. I keep you close to My Breast, pressed against My Heart. Be still. Silence the tumult of your thoughts, be still and know that I AM God and I love you. I died for you so I could raise you to new life in Me with Me. Remain in My love, and when your sojourn on earth is over, I will take you to Myself to the place that My Father created for you before He laid the foundations of the earth. Stay Mine.

TOBIT 7:15-17 (2025)

TOBIT 7:15-17

Ragouel called his wife and said to her 

“My sister, prepare the other room and take Sara there.” 

Edna did as Ragouel told her and she took Sara to this room 

and Sara began to cry. Edna dried her daughter’s tears and said,

“Have courage, my child, 

the God of heaven and earth will change your sorrow into joy. 

Have confidence, my daughter!” Then she left.

---- mine,

No matter what difficulties you are going through, no matter what calamity is before you, remember this always, keep this truth ever before you: I AM the Lord your God, and no harm will come to those who are Mine. Not a hair of your head shall fall if I do not permit it. Listen to Me and pay attention to what I say to you today. Just as Sara's parents, Ragouel and Edna, brought their troubles to Me, the Lord their God, and had faith in My power and mighty hand to save, so too will I save you, your family. Your children will know Me, the Lord their God, and they will know that it is I who saved, I who healed, I who drew them out of the pit, washed them clean, and restored their inheritance to them. I AM the Lord your God. Have faith in Me and in My Word. I have spoken, and My Word will not return to Me without accomplishing all that I have sent it to do. Be not afraid, ---- my own, it is the will of My Father that not one of His little ones should perish but that all should come to the knowledge of truth and be saved. Have faith, have courage, and do not be afraid, fear has no place in the lives of those who are called by My Name, and not only are you and those you pray for called by My Name, their names are inscribed indelibly on My Hand and on My Heart. All is well, for God is near.

LAMENTATIONS 3:55-57 (2025)

LAMENTATIONS 3:55-57

Out of the depths I called on your name, O Lord. 

You heard; you have not been deaf to my cry for relief. 

When I called, you even came near and told me not to fear.

---- mine,

Believe Me when I say to you that there is not a prayer uttered aloud or in the silence of your heart that I do not hear and answer. Have confidence in My love for you, which is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Do not doubt My love for you, when you do, you become anxious, fearful, and sorrowful, and uncertainty takes hold of your life and makes you prey to despondency of soul. Do not give the devil a foothold in you, but have faith that even though the night is dark, the way narrow and fraught with difficulties, I AM with you always. I keep My Word for I AM the Eternal Word of God, the same yesterday, today, and forever. I AM the Yes and the Amen of God, and all that God has assured you He will do for you will be done by the power of My Love and the power of the Holy Spirit. You and everyone you pray for will be saved. Know this and be glad and give thanks always for the Lord your God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire nothing more than the salvation of the whole world, and this will be accomplished by the power of My Sacrifice and the power of My saving Blood, which has redeemed the world.

PSALM 4:1, 3 & PSALM 6:9 (2025)

PSALM 4:1, 3 & PSALM 6:9

1Answer when I call, O God, my justice! 

When I was in distress, you gave me solace. 

Have compassion on me and hear my plea.

3But you must know that the Lord has shown his kindness to me. 

When I call to him, he hears me.

9 The Lord has heard my plea; 

the Lord will grant all that I pray for.

---- mine,

I always hear and I always answer - this is the truth. My ear is ever inclined to those who call My Name. My ear is pressed against your lips. I hear every sigh. I see every tear. I hear every prayer of your heart. I hear the sighs of your spirit. Your prayers are always before Me, and My Sacred Heart is moved to pity and tender compassion. My love for you encompasses you, and My mighty protection covers you and those you love. You are Mine. I assure you today, as I have assured you so many times before, and will continue to do so for as long as you need Me to. I have heard your prayers. I have dried your tears. I have answered and every one of the favors you bring before Me all the time has been granted. It pleases Me, ---- my own, to bring about the salvation of every soul you pray for.  Nothing delights heaven more; there is no greater rejoicing in heaven than the conversion of the wicked and the restoration to life of those who were once doomed to die. Continue to pray. Continue to plead the cause of those you love and do so with faith and with confidence, and I will grant you all that your heart desires for the salvation and well-being of those who are nearest and dearest to your heart. Never forget that I have claimed them for My own, and My hand is never too short to save for they are Mine. Take heart, not one single soul entrusted to Me by My Father in heaven will be lost. 

LAMENTATIONS 3:21-24 (2025)

LAMENTATIONS 3:21-24

But this, when I ponder, is what gives me hope: 

The Lord's love abides unceasingly. 

His compassion is never consumed; 

every morning it is renewed. 

And his love remains ever faithful. 

“My portion is the Lord,” says my soul. 

“On him shall I rely.”

---- mine,

You come to Me morning after morning before dawn, you sit with Me, and you raise your heart, mind, and soul to Me. You pray unceasingly for the conversion of your children and those you love. You plead with Me for their conversion of heart and their return to the life of the Church. I have heard your prayers, and I have not only seen your tears but I have collected each one of them. They are all precious to Me: your sorrow, your tears, your love for those who are nearest and dearest to you. Remember that I died for them, I laid down my life for them, I emptied Myself for their salvation and the salvation of the whole world. My Father is aware of the price I paid for their redemption, it was a price that both love and justice demanded, and I was glad to do all that He asked of Me because I love you. Now you are Mine, and I will also claim as Mine all who are sealed in the Seal of the Holy Spirit through Baptism. Do not fear, ---- my own, My hand is not too short to save. Continue to pray, to hope, and above all, do not lose heart. At the appointed time, they too will bend the knee and glorify My Name before My Father in Heaven, and there will be great rejoicing in heaven at their return. Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.

1 MACCABEES 3:18-19 (2025)

1 MACCABEES 3:18-19

But Judas declared: 

“A multitude shall easily fall into the hands of a few, 

for Heaven can win over equally well with the help of many or of few.

Victory does not depend on the number of those who fight, 

but on Heaven which gives us strength.”

---- mine,

While it is true that those who persecute My people, those called by My Name, seem strong, especially when My people who are called by My Name are fewer in number, do not be afraid, for it is I who fight for you. No power can overcome those who belong to Me. Unless it is the will of God and for the greater glory of My Father, of the Son, and the Holy Spirit, no hand that is raised against My people will succeed. It is I who have called you, I who have sent you on a mission, and this the Father's will that all His children no matter where they may be, what language they speak, or what culture they belong to, no matter what faith they belong to or what gods they worship, the Truth will be revealed to them, their minds will be illumined, they will experience the love of God and the power of God. Do not be afraid; no matter how great the armies of the enemy that come against those who are Mine, they will not prevail. They come with earthly power and might, but they come against those who have all the angels in heaven fighting for them, and against the powers of heaven, they will be crushed and annihilated. As for you, keep My commandments to love God, love your neighbor, and above all love your enemies. Continue to repay evil with good and with kindness, knowing that no weapon forged against love will succeed.

ISAIAH 41:10 (2025)

ISAIAH 41:10

Fear not, for I am with you; 

be not dismayed, for I am your God. 

I will give you strength, I will bring you help, 

I will uphold you with the right hand of my justice.

---- mine,

As I have assured you several times before, I assure you once more that I AM always with you. I have chosen you for my own; you are mine in time and in eternity. Fear nothing except displeasing Me and wounding Me by your sins. Walk in the light of My Word, and you will always walk in the Way of Truth and Life. Permit My Word to permeate your whole being. This is possible only if you read My Word constantly, meditate on it, and allow it to become part of your life. When you do, your every thought, word, and deed will be inspired by the power of My Word. Have no fear about anything, but in all things pray and trust that all will turn out well according to My will and plan. Desire nothing more and nothing less but for My will to be perfectly accomplished in your life and in the lives of those you love and for whom you pray constantly. Keep My Name always before you, and even before your need is fully known to you and you are forming the words of prayer on your lips, I will know it and I will answer. Be not afraid, ---- my own, fear, anxiety, and worry have no place in the hearts of the children of God. Never forget to whom you belong and who walks beside you and reigns in your heart. Keep your gaze fixed on Me always, and you will walk with serenity of heart and purpose, for you will walk in My Light and Truth. Never forget that I love you more than you can ever comprehend - I love you, remain in My love.

SIRACH 34:16-17 (2025)

SIRACH 34:16-17

The eyes of the Lord are on those who love him. 

For them he is powerful protection, strong support; 

shelter against scorching wind and the midday sun. 

He is a safeguard against stumbling 

and assurance against a fall. 

He lifts up the soul and gives a sparkle to the eyes; 

he gives healing, life and blessing.

---- mine,

Believe in Me, believe all My promises. Keep the faith even when it seems hardest and when nothing is going your way. Reflect. Remember past blessings and give thanks; let the numerous times when your prayers have been answered strengthen your faith, hope, and trust in Me. Recall and hold fast to the memories of all the blessings with which I have blessed you and those for whom you prayed ceaselessly. I AM the same God yesterday, today, and forever. Those who are Mine are under My protection. My love is a canopy that shelters them from the wiles of the Enemy. Fear nothing,---- my own, except eternal separation from Me. Remain in My love. Do nothing that would separate you from Me. Pray constantly with hope.  Keep your hand firmly in My own, and I will keep you from stumbling and falling. Allow My Life to course through you by partaking often of My Body and Blood, and go to the Sacrament of Confession often, ensuring that you are free from sin. No matter how far you fall, you can begin anew, and strengthened by My help and by My Body, and with the help of the Holy Spirit, you can do all things. Remain in My love and trust Me. I love you and I will never leave you or forsake you, for  I have claimed you for Myself in time and in eternity. Remain in My Love.

JEREMIAH 24:7 (2025)

JEREMIAH 24:7

I will give them a heart to know that I am the Lord; 

and they shall be my people and I will be their God, 

for they shall return to me with their whole heart.

---- mine,

I have heard your prayers, your pleadings, your pleas that are always on your lips and in your heart. I desire to give you all that you have prayed for because this is the desire of My Heart as well. I desire not the death of the sinner, but that all be saved and come to the knowledge of the Truth as revealed by My Father in Heaven. This is why He sent Me into the world, not to condemn the sinner but to save all. I, in turn, sent the Holy Spirit, for no one can be holy or be perfect on the power of their own strength and will, but the Holy Spirit makes all possible. He is the Paraclete, the Helper. He is the Divine Lover, for He is the Love between My Father and I, and it is He who draws into My Sacred Heart, all who desire to belong to Me, making you one with Me as I AM one with My Father. Fear not, ---- my own, Your prayers for the conversion of all your family members have been heard on High and at a time of My choosing the hour will arrive for every one of them to bend their knee and confess to the glory of God My Father and yours, that I AM Lord and there is no other. Be of good cheer, I have conquered the world. Continue to pray, to fast, and give alms, for these are pleasing to Me and purify your soul. Give gladly, pray with faith, and when you fast, let the praise of God fill your whole being as I fill you with My Life and My Presence, I AM God, there is no other, and I love you.

LUKE 12:6-7 (2025)

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,

You are precious, you have been bought at a price that cost the Son of God His life and every drop of My Blood. You are precious in the sight of God because My Father in heaven considered you worth the life, passion, and death that I endured for your redemption. I rescued you from the jaws of death and hell and eternal separation from the Source of all Life, goodness, beauty, holiness, and truth. Never for a moment consider yourself less than you are in the sight of My Father. It is My Father who created you, it is He who, at the moment of your conception, gave you an immortal soul, so even though your body would perish in death, your soul would live eternally. So determined was the Father to ensure that you would be with Him in His Kingdom that after the fall of the first man and woman, He made way for their descendants to be redeemed and restored. Having claimed you for Himself through the Sacrifice of My Life on the Cross at Golgotha, He went further and desired that you should have the Spirit of God descend on you and help you to make the difficult journey on the narrow way to His Kingdom. So do not consider yourself forgotten by God. The Father and I have loved with you a love that is beyond all telling. You are the apple of His Eye and precious in His sight. You are more precious than many sparrows. You are known intimately. You are known completely. You are loved passionately, infinitely, and wholeheartedly. Remember that I abide in you and will remain in you until I can welcome you at last to take the place prepared for you by My Father since He created the heavens. Keep your gaze fixed on the prize and have no fear, for in love, there can be no place for fear. Let God's love for you rule your life, submit your whole being to Me, and permit Me to have supreme reign over you.

ISAIAH 62:4-5 (2025)

ISAIAH 62:4-5

No longer will you be named Forsaken; no longer will your land be called Abandoned; but you will be called My Delight and your land Espoused. For the Lord delights in you and will make your land his spouse. As a young man marries a virgin, so will your builder marry you; and as a bridegroom rejoices in his bride, so will your God rejoice in you.

---- mine,

While the prophet speaks of God's covenant people and the land He gave them, I speak these words to you. For a very long time now, you have experienced sorrow, heartache, anxiety, and loss. Day after day, you bring before Me your prayers to restore what was lost by those of your flesh who have sinned through a lack of discipline, a lack of prayer, self-indulgence leading to living immoral lives. Smothering conscience, losing sight of all that was taught to them in their childhood and youth, until all control was lost and the spiritual rot set in. Breaking the spirit and allowing evil to enter and reside. The punishment was brought about by vanity, pride, and self-indulgence with no boundaries, and the whole body was broken. You watched the slow decay and destruction, and you stood by helpless, afraid of the worst but never giving in to complete despair. You came to Me, threw yourself on My mercy, and begged Me for help, strength, and restitution, even while your heart was filled with fear that perhaps all was lost. But you forgot that I punish only to bring about healing, repentance, contrition, forgiveness, and pardon. I heard your prayer, I wiped your tears. My heart broke even as yours was broken. But I had to apply the remedy, painful as it was. I had to strip away, cleanse thoroughly through suffering, before putting together again. No longer will either you or your loved ones be considered Forsaken. Never will you feel abandoned. I delight in you, I have made a covenant with you which will never be broken, nor will I forget that you are espoused to Me. Fear not, ---- my own, all I have said I will do. They will return, and not only you but heaven will rejoice at their return to the Father's house.

2 CHRONICLES 6:17-21 (2025)

2 CHRONICLES 6:17-21

Therefore, O Lord, God of Israel, let your word be confirmed, which you promised to your servant David. “But will God indeed reside with mortals on earth? Even heaven and the highest heaven cannot contain you, how much less this house that I have built! Regard your servant’s prayer and his plea, O Lord my God, heeding the cry and the prayer that your servant prays to you. May your eyes be open day and night toward this house, the place where you promised to set your name, and may you heed the prayer that your servant prays toward this place.  And hear the plea of your servant and of your people Israel, when they pray toward this place; may you hear from heaven your dwelling place; hear and forgive.

---- mine,

Samuel prayed after building a beautiful temple to God, the Almighty, Creator of all and Supreme Ruler of the heavens and the earth, fulfilling the promise his father, David, had made. But God prefers to make His temple in human hearts. Is your heart, ---- my own, a fitting residence for Me, for the Holy Spirit, and for My Father? It is indeed our delight to dwell not only among you but to reside in fullness in the Church, My Body. Just as the Word of God by the power of the Holy Spirit descended into the womb of My Virgin Mother and tabernacled in her womb, making her the New Ark of the Covenant, so too do I make My home in the Church all over the world. From the most beautiful cathedrals to the most humble and rough chapels everywhere in the four corners of the globe, I come down from heaven and at the words uttered by the priest, and in his hands I honor My Covenant and I AM present on every altar in fullness, body, soul, and divinity. Nothing delights Me more than to forgive sins and make every member of My Body worthy to receive My Body and My Blood. For a while, I am united in an intimacy closer than any human closeness is possible, and in this spiritual embrace, more intimate than the human marital embrace, I and my beloved are one. So few are aware of this and are taken up into the mystical moments when God, bowing low, enters into the human heart. So many receive Me unworthily, indifferently, with neither gratitude nor thanksgiving for the greatest Gift that they will receive this side of heaven. This is the moment when I hear every prayer, so in the most loving and intimate words speak to Me, tell Me everything, and I will hear, I will answer, I will forgive, I will restore, I will make whole in every way that wholeness is needed. Please do not wound My Heart by receiving Me indifferently. I so long for these moments of intimacy with you. So many hearts are selfish, hard, and cold. You receive Me and comfort Me while I AM one with you in the Holy Eucharist. And pray that all who receive Me may become aware of the great treasure that God gives them, for My Father will not spare anyone who receives Me, the Beloved Son of the Living God, with callous indifference, 

MATTHEW 7:9-11 (2025)

MATTHEW 7:9-11

Would any of you give a stone to your son, when he asks for bread? 

Or give him a snake, when he asks for a fish? 

However bad you may be, 

you know how to give good things to your children. 

How much more, then, will your Father in heaven 

give good things to those who ask him.

---- mine,

Every day and through the day, you plead with Me to have mercy on those you love who have strayed far from the Way of Truth. Your heart is heavy, you brood all day long, you wonder whether in your lifetime you will see and experience the joy of answered prayer, and they will come home to Me and return to the place in My Body to which they belong. Do not lose heart, ---- my own, continue to pray with confidence, to fast, and to give alms. You keep the commandments faithfully. You live your life in submission to My will every hour of every day, to discern My will for your life, moment by moment, and do it. Live in My Shadow and trust Me in all things. I who brought you out of darkness in My own marvellous light will I not do the same for those you pray for? I love them too with the same love with which I love you. Remember that God, who is Your Father and who is perfect, all knowing, all loving, all powerful, all goodness, all beauty, and all love, is the most perfect of fathers and in His sublime goodness, generosity, and love, He will save all those you pray for. He who is holy and perfect will withhold no good thing that is necessary for salvation from your loved ones. They will return to My fold, and I will be their Shepherd. This is the Father's will and desire that not one of His little ones be lost.

MATTHEW 6:8B (2025)

MATTHEW 6:8B

Your Father knows what you need, even before you ask Him.

---- mine,

Trust Me when I say that even before the desire is born in your heart, the thought is formed in your mind, and the words take shape on your lips, long before you even express them. My Father knows all. He sees all, and understands all, and nothing delights My Father more than to give  His children all their heart's desires because He loves. And should He withhold anything that you plead for, should you not receive it at once, it is because He desires to give you something far better. If you do not receive what your heart longs for when you ask for it, do not be disheartened; the time is not right. When it is, He will surely give you what you ask for and more. Trust in His timing. He knows best. He is the Creator and the Father of all the Living. He designed you. He knows best what you and those you pray for need. He knows what to give you to help you in your spiritual journey. When you pray, keep your gaze fixed on Me. Lift up your eyes and look at Me. Just as Moses raised the bronze serpent high and asked all those who were bitten by the fiery serpent to gaze on it and be healed, so too all who are bitten by the fiery serpent of sin are asked to raise their eyes and gaze on Me in the Eucharist and I will heal all your wounds. All who come to be and gaze on Me will receive complete healing and restoration in every way in heart, mind, soul, body, and spirit. Have no fear, ---- my own. Fear nothing except wounding Me by your sins. I love you with an everlasting love, and all I ask of you is to return My love. Pray constantly for this grace from the Holy Spirit, that the measure of your love for Me increases more and more each day.

MATTHEW 8:7-8, 10, 13-15 (2025)

MATTHEW 8:7-8, 10, 13-15

7 Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” 8 The captain answered, “I am not worthy to have you under my roof. Just give an order and my boy will be healed.

10 When Jesus heard this, he was astonished; and said to those who were following him, “I tell you, I have not found such faith in Israel.

13 Then Jesus said to the Centurion, “Go home now. As you believed, so let it be.” And at that moment, his servant was healed.

14 Jesus went to Peter’s house and found Peter’s mother-in-law in bed with fever. 15 He took her by the hand and the fever left her; she got up and began to wait on him.

---- mine,

Do you have the faith of the Centurion, you who are a cradle Catholic, who have been raised in the faith from your infancy, who have always remained in the arms and bosom of Holy Mother Church, as a member of My Body and as the Bridegroom of your soul? Can you, ---- my own, claim to have the robust conviction of the Centurion who only heard of Me and believed? Make a brief examination of your conscience, go through your memories over the years, confess honestly, in times of uncertainty, when you or your loved ones suffered trials, some of them really difficult. You could only stand by helplessly and watch how it all unfolded. Were you steadfast in faith and hope? Did you wait with a glad heart and a confident spirit, certain that in the end I would work all things for good? Having confided the difficulties to Me did you then rest with tranquility on your trust in Me? Did you believe that, having heard your prayers, I would reward your faith in Me just as I rewarded the Centurion for his faith? I entered Peter's house, was informed that his mother-in-law was in bed with a high fever, I took her hand, raised her up, and the fever left her immediately - what was her response? She got up and began to serve. What about you? How have you responded to all the times I heard and answered your prayers? Have you served? Is your faith still smaller than even the size of a mustard seed? You know how easily you become disturbed, discouraged, and weary of soul and spirit when you and your loved ones experience trials. You lose your calm, peace, and serenity of soul. Ask and you will receive the gifts of a greater, more robust faith, greater patience, and greater confidence in the power of My Word. Remember that on every occasion when your faith has been tested, I have heard and answered your prayers; let the memories of past blessings increase and strengthen your faith. Doubt no longer that I AM God and I always keep My Word. Believe your son will live. Your son will live. Your loved ones will live, and your heart will rejoice and be glad forever.

HOSEA 14:5, 8-9 (2025)

HOSEA 14:5, 8-9

I will heal their disloyalty
and love them with all my heart,
for my anger has turned from them. 6 I shall be like dew to Israel,
like the lily will he blossom.
Like a cedar, he will send down his roots;

They will dwell in my shade again,
they will flourish like the grain,
they will blossom like a vine,
and their fame will be like Lebanon wine.

What would Ephraim do with idols,
when it is I who hear and make him prosper?
I am like an ever-green cypress tree;
all your fruitfulness comes from me.

---- mine,

All that I have said to you repeatedly, day after day, I will do. Have faith and confidence in My Word. I do not desire the death of the sinner, for I came to give life and give it in abundance. There is no prayer, no sigh, no sorrow, no wound, no illness so grave that I cannot touch and heal by the power of My Word. Do not be afraid, ---- my own, it pleases My Father to give the Kingdom to all who believe in Me, hope in Me, and trust Me. Those you pray for, plead before My throne, cry to Me incessantly for their restoration, healing, and return, I have heard. Believe Me when I say to you, at a time of My choosing, at the appointed hour, their hearts will be filled with My Holy Spirit and filled with compunction and sorrow for their rejection of Me, they will know that apart from Me, life is meaningless. They will return with joy, contrition, and true repentance, and I will give them healing, I will forgive, I will restore in full measure and more all that they turned their backs from during the time of their wandering. They will put down roots deep into Me and they will bear fruit, good fruit in abundance, and you will rejoice and be glad and your joy no one will steal from you. Be of good cheer, ---- my own, I have overcome the world. 

RUTH 3:9, 11A (2025)

RUTH 3:9, 11A

“Who are you?” he asked. The answer came, “I am Ruth, your servant. Spread the corner of your cloak over me for you are a kinsman who has right of redemption over me.”

Have no fear, my daughter; I will do for you all that you ask.

---- mine,

I do not ask you who you are, for I know you. You are my own. I know you by your name, I have carved it on the palm of My Hand. I have saved you, I have washed you clean, I have robed you with festal robes, and I rejoice over you. I have called you out of darkness into My own marvelous light. I have loved you with a love beyond all telling. Be not afraid, ---- my own, but lift your head high and walk with the freedom of a child of God. You are redeemed and sanctified, so live unafraid, victorious, joyfully, for you know who you are and the price that love paid to save you and bind you to the Lord and Giver of Life. Be not afraid - fear crushes the soul and steals your joy. It allows darkness to pervade your soul and your spirit, and it crushes you with fear and anxiety. You are Mine, and because you are Mine, you are grafted to My Body. The Life of the Holy Spirit runs through you and gives you life in abundance. Remain in My Love. Listen to  Me and do all that I command, and you will receive all that your heart desires. I will wipe away all your tears. I will heal your broken heart. I will come to you and live in you, and you will be one with Me. You are Mine forever.  Remain in Me and you will remain in My Love. Ask Me for all you need, ask boldly and with confidence, I will deny you nothing, for it pleases Me to hear your voice passionately pleading that I save those you love. I desire this far more than you do, and I will gladly do as you ask, for I AM the God who saves.
