June 11th Holy Spirit Novena Scripture selection is Day 8 Period II.

The Novena Rosary Mysteries  for June 11th are Joyful.

 

Pray for Bob, Fr. Joe and Ken & other intentions.
 

Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

Sunday ( tomorrow) is the
Feast of the Body and
Blood of Jesus.

Heart.

Immaculate Heart.

 

 

St. Augustine said that
peace is the tranquility of
order.
When human beings
respect the order God has
established, there is peace,
Fr. Carter said.
Not perfect Peace- for we
never perfectly adhere to
God’s designs- but a peace
sufficiently substantial to
aid us to be and to become
what God has destined, Fr.
Carter said. He continued:
when the order or design
imprinted by God upon
human existence is not
respected, trouble ensues.
The trouble or discord can
be of cosmic or world-wide
proportions.

Lack of order affects
nations,and families.

Think of the lack of peace
because a person refuses
to live according to God’s
will.
A person should realize we
will have substantial peace,
according to how we obey
God’s will in our lives.
Living in peace and order
contribute to the harmony
needed in the world and in
binding others as members
of the human race.
God’s rule is we are to love
God and love our neighbor.
God is love- His plan is for
us to love.
We are to live in harmony in
a tapestry of love, Fr. Carter
says.
We can stray from the
ordered perspective of God
to live by God’s will.
Fr. Carter says: A sense of
Christian perspective is an
ability to comprehend the
order or plan God has
established to guide our
lives. When we maintain
this perspective and live
according to it, we experience
that peace Jesus came to give.


We must seek God's will,
not dwell in self- pity over
failure or be puffed up with
success. Rather our focus
is what does God want of
me now, and do it.
Too much focus on rapid
success can lead us down
paths, God does not want
of us. Pray to the Holy Spirit
to do God's will and do His
will.

Do not seek inordinate
desires.What is our whole
life history for growing in
the image of Jesus.
Seeking accomplishments,
not in His plan is only one
part of the history of our
spiritual life, seek God's
will, not too much of one
thing, not too little, less
than what God wants.

Praise God, thank God,
pray in praising God. Do
not do things for our own
glory or honor.

We need to live virtuously.
We see Mary's example.
She did God's will whether
carrying a pebble or a
Boulder. Mary always
focused on the Lord.
Mary gave her all as God
called her. She was the
perfect handmaid of Jesus.
Mary said, "My soul doth
magnify the Lord and my
spirit rejoices in God my
Savior."

Jesus held nothing back.
Jesus loves us and gives us
Himself in the Eucharist.

God wants a loving
relationship with us.
This takes our focus on
God in all we do.
Anxiety results when one
clings and holds onto that
which is taking them from
God.
Emptying oneself to God's
will is what we need, to
treasure God's will for us, to
live by this as our guide.

Peace comes in making
God's will our goal, even in
tremendous suffering.

Following the wrong path
never leads to real peace
and happiness inside. Only
God can lead us to
everlasting happiness
inside.
Our hearts were made for
true happiness and true
peace inside. Peace is in
God.
Eternal happiness is in Him.
At the core of our being
when we seek God's will,
living in love we can have
peace even in rough waters
In that core, we are not
shaken.
Jesus said
"Peace is my farewell to
you, my peace is my gift to
you..."
We do not ignore our life,
we live deeply every
moment in Him.

St. Paul said:".. It's no
longer I who live, but Christ
lives in me."

God is light and in Him is
no darkness, living in the
moment, not checking out
and procrastinating, doing
God's will when He calls.

		Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Litugical Year (2011/2012) $ 10.00 Guiding Light homily series — Reflect on the Word — Cycle B     The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $10

		Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Litugical Year $ 10.00 Guiding Light homily series — Steadfast to the Son — Cycle A    The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $10

		Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Litugical Year $ 10.00 Guiding Light — Focusing on the Word — Cycle B    At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $10

		Guiding Light - Feed My Soul Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Litugical Year $ 10.00 Guiding Light — Feed My Soul — Cycle C    In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $10
