Jesus speaks: The
deaf do not hear
and the blind do not see.
Be joyful, shout a cry of joy
For there is nothing to fear, but
fear itself.
I am with you until the end of time
I am with you forever.
See the smiles of the children
use the talents given to do
My work
to do My will
The devil is trying to make you
blind to your gifts
Shout a merry song of joy
A man came and gave a little mite
he was very rich, but he
gave very little
When people gathered he began
telling everyone what he
had done for God
He really gave very little and
he boasted to the hilt
of his generosity
When asked what he gave
he himself agreed it
was very little
And yet he continued boasting
of his generosity
First to thine own self be true,
lest you treat yourself like
a lying "friend" Who wants
one?
Where is there anything stable
in a liar
They have nothing stable
Like a hurricane you cannot
really predict its outcome
A liar is not a friend
A man who is true
is predictable
He walks in truth
He is stable
He is right
A man went among the people
and he sold them a "bill
of goods"
When the people wanted to
reap the benefits of the
goods
the man was long gone and
the money taken and
the goods did not produce
Words are cheap for the liar
his focus is for his own good
truth is measured by what
is really right
A liar can promise you anything
feels he does not have to keep his word
he is a liar
his word is not worth anything
Luke 19: 1-10
He entered Jericho and was going through the town and suddenly a man whose name was Zacchaeus made his appearance; he was one of the senior tax collectors and a wealthy man. He kept trying to see which Jesus was, but he was too short and could not see him for the crowd; so he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore tree to catch a glimpse of Jesus who was to pass that way. When Jesus reached the spot he looked up and spoke to him, Zacchaeus, come down. Hurry, because I am to stay at your house today. And he hurried down and welcomed him joyfully. They all complained when they saw what was happening. He has gone to stay at a sinners house, they said. But Zacchaeus stood his ground and said to the Lord, Look, sir, I am going to give half my property to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody I will pay him back four times the amount. And Jesus said to him, Today salvation has come to this house, because this man too is a son of Abraham; for the Son of man has come to seek out and save what was lost.

Jesus speaks: How
are children taught
Children who are taught to lie
are taught to sin
Children watching adults
swindle have a problem,
for they learn to do things
dishonestly.
When Mrs. Jones didn't want to
do something she made up
a big story right in front of
her children
She taught her children how to lie.
She could have just said, "I didn't
want to go", but she didn't
she concocted a story to
tell why she wasn't going.
Do you worry more about what
people think of you or do
you care if you live
in truth?
You do not have to tell everybody
all your business, but
why lie before your children
about a PTA meeting and why
you aren't going to it.
Lying is not telling the truth.
The Ten Commandments
I, the Lord, am your God. You shall not have other gods besides me.
You shall not take the name of the Lord, your God, in vain.
Remember to keep holy the Sabbath day.
Honor your father and your mother.
You shall not kill.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife.
You shall not covet anything that belongs to your neighbor.
8. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

Jesus speaks: Some
people steal
They take money they do not
deserve.
They may steal something
someone else has
justifying that it is okay
to do it
How
do you want to be taught
Do you want someone telling
you and your children lies
because of pride they
may want to look smart.
Why lie when you don't even
have to
Do you want someone to
"lie" to you
How is your measuring stick
Do you think you can lie
and really demand others
tell you the truth.
How can people tell what
is truth when you are
lying?
Where do you stop with your
lying?
You lie sometimes
You tell the truth sometimes
Do you want a "friend" like that?
You have rules for others treating
you, but you don't have
to tell the truth.
You may say
How can I tell what is the
truth
many times they look me
right in the face and with
a concocted story they
lie
It is a habit with them
Ask them why do you act
for your honor and glory or the
honor and glory of God.
To do one's own will, it is
a bad habit to lie to
a superior
a child to a parent.
People with habitual sins,
may constantly tell themselves
it was okay to sin, so they
lie about other things
justifying their actions.
How can I build a strong
institution, a strong family, if you are
in the habit of lying.
TRUTH Builds the strong
temple.
Be truthful to yourself
Don't tell yourself you
are a victim when
someone didn't even do
anything to you
You are just comfortable
in the victim role
So you lie to yourself and
others to live that
victim role
When I speak
LISTEN
I have given you special gifts,
but you won't listen
you lie to yourself and you
remain the same where you
could have grown in holiness.
My Word is your truth.
You must observe the ten commandments.
If you habitually lie about
little things
Stop it
You probably lie about lots
of things
Don't lie to parents
Don't lie to superiors doing God's will
Don't do what you want that is
against God's will then lie
to yourself how it is God's will
You will only be happy doing
God's will not giving
into silly promptings of the devil
not doing willful things - you
want to do that aren't My
will and then lying to yourself
about it.
I am the way, the truth and
the life.
Sing: Battle Hymn of the Republic
I am the King of Glory
Do you live to promote yourself or
do you live for the honor and glory of God.
Sing: To Jesus Christ, Our Sovereign King
Sing song: Come, My Way, My Truth
My Life
1 Corinthians 2: 2
I was resolved that the only knowledge I would have while I was with you was knowledge of Jesus, and of him as the crucified Christ.
November 9, 2005 message continued
Jesus speaks: I
give you Myself in the Holy Eucharist
so you will be holy
Sing: I Am the Bread of Life
Give ME Honor
Love
and Praise
Do all things for the honor
and glory of God
Don't give into satan
Tell the truth -
How do you want people to treat you.
You expect them to tell you the
truth then you lie.
Satan is the father of lies
The FIRST 2 Commandments are
1. I, the Lord, am your God. You shall not have other gods besides me.
2. You shall not take the name of the Lord, your God, in vain.
Who is your God
Do you lie?
Do you make yourself your god?
Do you make the world your god?
Is your life passing by while you
weave - webs of lies to
yourself and others
I want to be close to you
I am Truth.
The devil is the father of lies.
I carried My Cross to My death
I died for your sins
Your sins drives you away
from Me
The more pure you are, the
more one we can be.
I am the Way, the Truth and the
Life
Do you want peace
don't lie to yourself about
the truth
Little Prayers to the Holy Spirit
Dear Holy Spirit, help us not to be ignorant or indifferent or weak, help us to be strong with the love of God.
Dear Holy Spirit, please pray for our needs for us.
Dear Holy Spirit, help us to respect God and to avoid sin. Help us to live in the Father's will.
Dear Holy Spirit, help us to keep Your commandments and to respect authority. Help us to love all things as You will us to love them. Help us to want to pray and always serve God with the greatest love. Help us to know the truth. Help us to have the gift of faith, hope, and love. Help us to know what is right and what is wrong.
Sing song: Out of Darkness
Jesus speaks: If you
have problems
ask you if you lie to yourself
lie in confession
lie to parents
lie to superiors
lie as a habit
Who wants a "friend" that lies
Children are watching
Don't teach your children to
lie or cheat
Take what is your due
I watch more and more people - take -
what does not belong to them
YOU SHOULD EARN
YOUR KEEP
unless you are a child
or going to school
or elderly in a home
What is justice?
Peace and Justice shall kiss
Sing: Because the Lord Is My Shepherd

You love me with a most special love as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, a movement created by your Son as a powerful instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. In a return of love, I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock."

Jesus speaks: Peace
comes in living in the
truth.
How can you keep track of lies?
A person that wants peace
must live in truth.
If a person justifies they can
lie because of a greater good
they perceive, they are looking
into a bag of trouble.
Matthew 7: 1-5
Do not judge, and you will not be judged; because the judgements you give are the judgements you will get, and the standard you use will be the standard used for you. Why do you observe the splinter in your brothers eye and never notice the great log in your own? And how dare you say to your brother, "Let me take that splinter out of your eye," when, look, there is a great log in your own? Hypocrite! Take the log out of your own eye first, and then you will see clearly enough to take the splinter out of your brothers eye.
