R. What is life all about?
Where are we if we do not have our roots
in God?
Where are we indeed?
We can see how seeking ambition,
recognition, power can be as an
energy that 'nips' man and he follows
like a sheep with energy many times
for, for example, recognition, being
more learned, more powerful than
others.
There is the energy of the wounded human nature
that can have such energy for a foolish
fantasy 'whim' as power-over for
powers sake.
Foolish whim with energy that is opposed
to rational reasoning, just self-
inflicted power for powers sake –
We can see leaders who seek position and
yet when acquiring it do little to
stick to promises made to be elected
to leadership.
The purpose for a man's life is to know,
love and serve God.
Let's look at Peter's speech Acts 2: 14-40 Acts 2: 14-40 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven and addressed
them in a loud voice: ‘Men of Judaea, and all you who live in
Jerusalem, make no mistake about this, but listen carefully to what
I say. These men are not drunk, as you imagine; why, it is only the
third hour of the day.
On the
contrary, this is what the prophet was saying: In the last days—the Lord declares— ‘Men of Israel, listen to what I am going to
say: Jesus the Nazarene was a man commended to you by God by the
miracles and portents and signs that God worked through him when he
was among you, as you know. This man, who was put into your power by
the deliberate intention and foreknowledge of God, you took and had
crucified and killed by men outside the Law. But God raised him to
life, freeing him from the pangs of Hades; for it was impossible for
him to be held in its power since, as David says of him: I kept the Lord before my sight always, ‘Brothers, no one can deny that the patriarch
David himself is dead and buried: his tomb is still with us. But
since he was a prophet, and knew that God had sworn him an
oath to make one of his descendants succeed him on the throne,
he spoke with foreknowledge about the resurrection of the Christ: he
is the one who was not abandoned to Hades, and whose body did
not see corruption. God raised this man Jesus to life, and of
that we are all witnesses. Now raised to the heights by God's right
hand, he has received from the Father the Holy Spirit, who was
promised, and what you see and hear is the outpouring of that
Spirit. For David himself never went up to heaven, but yet he said: The Lord declared to my Lord, ‘For this reason the whole House of Israel can
be certain that the Lord and Christ whom God has made is this Jesus
whom you crucified.’ Hearing this, they were cut to the heart
and said to Peter and the other apostles, ‘What are we to do,
brothers?’ ‘You must repent,’ Peter answered, ‘and every one of you
must be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of
your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The
promise that was made is for you and your children, and for all
those who are far away, for all those whom the Lord our God
is calling to himself.’ He spoke to them for a long time using
many other arguments, and he urged them, ‘Save yourselves from this
perverse generation.’
I shall pour out my Spirit on all humanity.
Your sons and daughters shall prophesy,
your young people shall see visions,
your old people dream dreams.
Even on the slaves, men and women,
shall I pour out my Spirit.
I will show portents in the sky above
and signs on the earth below.
The sun will be turned into darkness
and the moon into blood
before the day of the Lord comes,
that great and terrible Day.
And all who call on the name of the Lord
will be saved.
for with him at my right hand
nothing can shake me.
So my heart rejoiced
my tongue delighted;
my body, too, will rest secure,
for you will not abandon me to Hades
or allow your holy one to see corruption.
You have taught me the way of life,
you will fill me with joy in your presence.
take your seat at my right hand,
till I have made your enemies
your footstool.
R. Look at Luke 2: 33
As the child's father and mother were wondering at the things that were being said about him
R. God is faithful to His promise.
Look at how God has dealt with
His people.
Luke encouraged the communities.
We see Luke's gifts given to us 2000
years or so later –
Right reasoning –
Not a whim –
Sound doctrine –
Not seeing through the eyes of the fallen
human nature –
We see the sacrifices of these early writers.
We see Paul's martyrdom –
We see the mercy of God despite
Paul who once persecuted the Church.
We see David who was weak and sinned
and how God made him a great
King over Israel.
We see God's grace and forgiveness –
God gives Paul a mouth of wisdom
which men could not argue with
to promote God's Kingdom,
Paul witnessed to the truth and
preached to the communities –
God is faithful to His promises –
In the Bible we are given hope!!
We can put all over trust in God.

3rd Sunday of Advent Zephaniah 3: 14-18 Shout for joy, daughter of Zion, When that Day comes,
Philippians 4: 4-7 Always be
joyful, then, in the Lord; I repeat, be joyful. Let
your good sense be obvious to everybody. The Lord is
near. Never worry about anything; but tell God all
your desires of every kind in prayer and petition
shot through with gratitude, and the peace of God
which is beyond our understanding will guard your
hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Luke 3: 10-18 When all the people asked him,
'What must we do, then?' he answered, 'Anyone who
has two tunics must share with the one who has none,
and anyone with something to eat must do the same.'
There were tax collectors, too, who came for
baptism, and these said to him, 'Master, what must
we do?' He said to them, 'Exact no more than the
appointed rate.' Some soldiers asked him in their
turn, 'What about us? What must we do?' He said to
them, 'No intimidation! No extortion! Be content
with your pay!' A feeling of expectancy had
grown among the people, who were beginning to wonder
whether John might be the Christ, so John declared
before them all, 'I baptise you with water, but
someone is coming, who is more powerful than me, and
I am not fit to undo the strap of his sandals; he
will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His
winnowing-fan is in his hand, to clear his
threshing-floor and to gather the wheat into his
barn; but the chaff he will burn in a fire that will
never go out.' And he proclaimed the good news to
the people with many other exhortations too.
3rd Sunday of Advent INTRODUCTION:
Our theme for today, as it often is, is summed up in the
Psalm Refrain: “Cry out with joy and gladness, for among
you is the great and holy one of Israel.” Our first
reading from the prophet Zephaniah goes back about 700
years before Christ. The Assyrians were the dominant
force in the Middle East and were an unusually warlike,
brutal people. Their capital city was in northern Iraq
near modern day Mosul. Our first reading comes from a
time shortly after the Assyrians wiped out the northern
part of Israel. They brought severe suffering upon the
southern part of Israel too, the area around Jerusalem,
but they did not conquer it. Jerusalem would still
stand for another 130 years until the Babylonians
conquered it. The Babylonian empire, as you might
remember, was centered around Baghdad and it was after
they destroyed the Assyrian empire that they moved on to
conquer many other nations in the Middle East which
included Judah and Jerusalem. (It sounds very much
like what’s going on over there today, doesn’t it?)
Meanwhile back to Zephaniah 700 years before Christ
after the northern part of Israel had been devastated.
Jerusalem was struggling to recover from the near
destruction they had suffered, but they didn’t learn
their lesson. Idolatry and immorality were rampant
among the Jews. The king of Judah himself offered his
own son as a human sacrifice to the pagan gods. Most of
Zephaniah’s book records his efforts to correct abuses
among God’s people. His book ends on a note of hope,
however, as he addresses those who are faithful to God.
He tells them to rejoice and assures them God will
rejoice and sing too because of his love for them and
for all the blessings that will be theirs. Can any of
us begin to imagine what it would sound like to hear God
singing?
There is something we
should be aware of when we hear the second reading too.
St. Paul is sitting in prison somewhere when he wrote
this, and prisons in those days were really bad.
Today’s prisons would look like a luxury hotel by
comparison. Yet Paul can be joyful and he is able to
encourage the Philippians to have no anxiety and to
rejoice always.
HOMILY: In the days
when we had Mass in Latin, today was known as Gaudete
Sunday. That means “Be Joyful.” The liturgy continues
to communicate that theme of joy with rose colored
vestments and readings telling us to rejoice.
So on this Gaudete Sunday
I thought you would enjoy a couple of laughs.
First a riddle for you:
Why is Christmas just like a day at the office? Answer:
You do all the work, and the guy that wears that big
fancy suit gets all the credit.
A couple were always
fascinated by old churches and wherever they traveled if
they came near an old church they had to stop and look
inside. Once in a small town church they saw an oddly
shaped bell and asked the person cleaning the church
what the strange bell was used for. They were told
“That bell is reserved for calamities, like fires,
floods, or a visit from the archbishop.”
Lastly, if laughter really
were the best medicine, hospitals would have found a way
to charge us for it long ago.
Laughter fades away, but
there is something that lasts and sustains us all the
more: joy. Joy goes deeper than just being funny. We
heard the prophet in today’s first reading telling God's
people, during an especially difficult time in their
history, to “sing for joy.” They should sing for joy
not because things were wonderful, but because God was
in their midst. And we heard Paul, in prison, tell the
Philippians to rejoice always. The scriptures give us
different ideas about joy than our culture does. Our
society seems to tell us joy stems from what we have.
The scriptures tell us our joy comes from what we have
(for the Lord is in your midst as Zephaniah tells us)
but it also comes from what we will have in some
future time, something we can trust in because God is
faithful to his promises.
In the few minutes I have,
let me name some of the things that keep us from having
joy: * Feeling sorry for oneself. * Constantly putting
other people down to make ourselves look smarter or
better. * Putting ourselves down all the time. Because
we’re human we all make mistakes or do wrong and there
are healthy ways of dealing with guilty or shame,
but constantly beating ourselves up is not one of
them. * Holding on to anger and resentment. It only
eats us up inside and does not produce joy. We have to
forgive. * Thinking that having more things is going to
make us happy. It satisfies us only momentarily. * And
then there’s fear and worry. Paul says have no anxiety
at all. That might sound impossible but there are so
many things that cause us anxiety, which we can do
nothing about and we have to leave in God's hands.
If self pity, guilt,
unforgiveness, anger, resentment, fear, and worry work
against our having joy, then what will lead to joy? We
must decide to be joyful. Paul tells the Philippians
“rejoice” as if it is something for them to choose to do
rather than it being something that just happens to
them. I think it was Abraham Lincoln who said most
people are about as happy as they make up their minds to
be. Dr. Hans Selye, the scientist who developed and
researched the concept of stress, would agree. He
said: it’s generally not the things outside of
us that create stress for us, but it’s the way we
respond to these things. Next we need to be good and to
do good. Otherwise we won’t feel good about ourselves.
The people in today’s gospel ask the Baptist, “what
should we do?” John gave them a few specific
ideas. All we have to do is read the gospels or the 10
Commandments and we’ll get the idea that there’s more
to a good life than just to say, “I believe!” Lastly, I
think gratitude is the final key to unlock the way to
joy. And again, being grateful is an intentional thing,
it is an attitude we must develop. St. Paul said: “in
everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving,
make your requests known to God.” A heart that is
ungrateful is not happy. This is not all that could be
said about joy, but it’s probably enough for us to think
about today.
My closing words for today
are don’t make yourselves so anxious this season that
you lose the joy that can be found only in knowing
Jesus’ love. “The Lord, your God, is in your midst.”

In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate

from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us

R. Christ taught the Apostles
Mark 3: 16-19 And so he appointed the Twelve, Simon to whom he gave
the name Peter, James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James,
to whom he gave the name Boanerges or ‘Sons of Thunder’; Andrew,
Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus,
Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, the man who was to
betray him.
Matthew 16: 17-19 Jesus replied, ‘Simon son of Jonah,
you are a blessed man! Because it was no human agency that revealed
this to you but my Father in heaven.
So I now say to you: You are
Peter and on this rock I will build my community. And the gates
of the underworld can never overpower it. I will give you the
keys of the kingdom of Heaven: whatever you bind on earth will
be bound in heaven; whatever you loose on earth will be loosed
in heaven.’
John 21: 15-17 When they had eaten, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon son of
John, do you love me more than these others do? He answered, Yes, Lord, you
know I love you. Jesus said to him, Feed my lambs. A second time he said
to him, Simon son of John, do you love me? He replied, Yes, Lord, you
know I love you. Jesus said to him, Look after my sheep. Then he said to
him a third time, Simon son of John, do you love me? Peter was hurt that he
asked him a third time, Do you love me? and said, Lord, you know
everything; you know I love you. Jesus said to him, Feed my sheep.
Matthew 28: 18-20 Jesus came up and spoke to them. He said, 'All
authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, make disciples of
all nations; baptise them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
and teach them to observe all the commands I gave you. And look, I am with you always;
yes, to the end of time.'

mortal nature has put on immortality, then will the words of scripture come true:
Death
is swallowed up in victory. Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting?
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin comes from the Law. Thank God, then, for
giving us the victory through Jesus Christ our Lord. John 6: 48-58 I
am the bread of life. Then the Jews started arguing among
themselves, ‘How can this man give us his flesh to eat?’ Jesus
replied to them: In all truth I tell you,
Sing: I Am the Bread of Life

1 John 4: 17-21 Love comes to its perfection in us when
we can face the Day of Judgement fearlessly, because even in this
world we have become as he is. In love there is no room for fear,
but perfect love drives out fear, because fear implies punishment
and no one who is afraid has come to perfection in love. Let us
love, then, because he first loved us. Anyone who says 'I love God'
and hates his brother, is a liar, since whoever does not love the
brother whom he can see cannot love God whom he has not seen. Indeed
this is the commandment we have received from him, that whoever
loves God, must also love his brother.

taught us about Himself –
The
Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of
knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent
expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise,
from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in
a perfect act of loving.
At the destined
moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed
himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also
become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God
becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself,
about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He
tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in
the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life
through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through
Christ.

R. The mystery of love never fails.
God is love.
God commands us to love.
To be faithful to the Holy Spirit.
To be faithful to the Father's Plan –
To be one with Jesus –
To put on Christ –
God calls us to this life in baptism.
Life in Him –
Our knowing and loving capacity
elevated in baptism –
Lord - I place my will and my life in You –
I hope in You –
I want to have a heart likened to
the Sacred Heart
Song: Give Me Your Heart, oh Jesus
To only want what God wants
for us –
One must pray to be faithful to
God – to have the will to
do it and to accomplish
what God wants to do in
me –
Abandoning oneself to God and
His will for us.
Jesus endured the cross –
Jesus endured the shame before
men –
Jesus calls us to suffer for
Him in our lives many
times – to draw us to
Himself and lead us to
greater life in Him –
Look at Jesus in the Garden
of Gethsemane –
He was faithful to His vocation –
He obeyed the Father's will
to His death on the cross –
He knew all He would suffer –
He knew pain of those He loved
who would reject Him and
suffer the fires of hell –
despite His gift of Himself
Jesus knew such anguish He
sweat blood in the garden –
Matthew 26: 39
And going on a little further he fell on his face and prayed. ‘My Father,’ he said, ‘if it is possible, let this cup pass me by. Nevertheless, let it be as you, not I, would have it.’
1 John 4: 18
In love there is no room for fear,
but perfect love drives out fear,
because fear implies punishment
and no one who is afraid
has come to perfection in love.
R. Perfect love casts out fear.
We can have true love of God where
we just love Him and want what
He wants –
Romans 8: 38-39
For I am certain of this: neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nothing already in existence and nothing still to come, nor any power, nor the heights nor the depths, nor any created thing whatever, will be able to come between us and the love of God, known to us in Christ Jesus our Lord.
R.
What of the interior life of man –
to know deeply Love –
Love of Father, Son and Holy Spirit
dwelling in Him –
To seek God's will of love and
service –
To be self-less and not
threatened by fear of
our brothers doing God's will
and prospering as God intends.
A heart is like a precious jewel –
It should be consumed with
light and beauty –
radiant and giving love to
God and all –
God is love –
We were created in the image
and likeness of God –
to be this precious heart –
like the Heart of Jesus –
to love God – simply to love Him

R. Our bodies may get old
but we are growing
in our knowledge for

Our souls, more and more
beautiful –
God, outpour Your grace

Impart to me your
wisdom –
Where we were blind –
let us now see –
A blind man can be
blind in his eyes and see
more clearly than the
man who sees with his eyes.
Luke was the author of
the 3rd Gospel
and also Acts –
Read Acts 2: 14-40 again –
Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit –
We should focus on the gifts
of the lives God has put
before us –
St. Luke
St. Peter –
The Martyrs of the
Early Church –
The Holy Spirit was with them in
having the courage to
die for their faith –
Jesus feeds us with
Himself in the Eucharist –
We are to be meek and
humble in heart
We have courage to fight
for God –
We are rooted in God –
We who have been baptized
have a special presence
of God - dwelling in our
graced, baptized soul –
Song: Your Presence Pervades My Soul –
Father, Son and Holy Spirit dwell
in the graced, baptized
soul –
From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.
Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"
Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us.

Holy Spirit Novena
DAILY NOVENA PRAYERS
Opening Prayer
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Dear Father, we come to You in the name of Jesus, in union with Him in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in the Holy Spirit. We come to You united to the Child Jesus of Good Health and the Infant of Prague. We come to You in the perfect, sinless heart of Our Mother Mary, asking her powerful intercession, uniting ourselves to her holy tears. We come to You united to all the angels and saints, and the souls in purgatory.
Prayer for Holy Spirit
We pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit on us, to be baptized by the Holy Spirit, that He will descend mightily on us as He did on the Apostles at Pentecost. That the Holy Spirit will transform us from fear to fearlessness and that He will give us courage to do all the Father is asking of us to help bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of Mary's Immaculate Heart. We pray for the Holy Spirit to descend mightily on the Jesuits and the Poor Clares on the Shepherds of Christ leaders and members and on the whole Body of Christ and the world.
Protection by the Blood of Jesus
We pray that the Blood of Jesus will be spread on us, everyone in our families, and the Shepherds of Christ Movement, that we will be able to move steadfastly ahead and be protected from the evil one.
Healing
We pray for healing in body, mind, and soul and generational healing in ourselves, in all members in our families, and in all members of the Shepherds of Christ Movement, the Jesuit Community, the Poor Clares, the Body of Christ, and the world.
Prayer for Strength and Light
We adore You, oh Holy Spirit. Give us strength, give us light, console us. We give ourselves entirely to You. Oh Spirit of light and grace, we want to only do the will of the Father. Enlighten us that we may live always in the Father's will.
Eternal Spirit fill us with Your Divine Wisdom that we may comprehend more fully insight into Your Divine Mysteries.
Give us lights, Oh Holy Spirit that we may know God. Work within the heart, the spiritual womb of the Virgin Mary, to form us more and more into the image of Jesus.
Prayer to Be One with God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit
We long for You, Oh Spirit of Light, we long to know God, we want to be one with Him, our Divine God. We want to be one with the Father, know Him as a Person most intimately. We want to know the beloved One, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and live and dwell in Him at all times, every moment of our lives. We want to be one with You, Oh Spirit of Light, that You move in us in our every breath.
Prayer to Be One in Jesus
Let us experience life in the Sacred Heart of Jesus, so we can say as Saint Paul, "I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me...." Let us live, united to the Mass, all through the day being one in Him. Let us be able to love and know in this elevated state of oneness with our God. We long for Thee, oh beauteous God, we love You, we love You, we love You. We praise You, worship You, honor You, adore You, and thank You, our beloved God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Prayer to Dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
We seek to be one in God, to live and dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, our little heaven on earth, to experience life in the all perfect, pure, sinless heart of our Mother. We want the Holy Spirit to move in us and to be united to Jesus as the Bridegroom of our souls and be a most perfect sacrifice offered to the Father at every moment as we unite in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass around the world to help in the salvation of souls.
Prayer for the Holy Spirit and His Gifts
Come Holy Spirit, come, come into our hearts, inflame all people with the fire of Your love.
Leader: Send forth Your Spirit and all will be reborn.
All: And You will renew the face of the earth.We pray for the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, we ask for perfection in our souls to make us holy, holy souls likened to God.
Dear Holy Spirit, we give ourselves to You soul and body. We ask You to give us the Spirit of Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Fortitude, Knowledge, Piety, and Fear of the Lord.
Prayer for the Word Alive in Our Hearts
We know, dear Holy Spirit, the Word in His human nature was brought forth within the womb of the woman. We pray that His word will be brought forth in our hearts as He lives and dwells in us. We want the incarnation to go on in our lives. Dear Holy Spirit, work in us.
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.
A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul
Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.

R. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Dear God the Father, in the name of Your Son Jesus, in the Holy Spirit, with all the angels and the saints and the souls in purgatory, through the powerful intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater, we are here to pray as God has asked us to, for this election, to pray for our country, to ask that the blood of Jesus is spread on all these people, to consecrate their hearts, to cast the devil out, and to ask for a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit. We pray for all of us. We pray for all of our members and our donors. We pray for their families and anybody that touches them. We pray for special healing, pray for Mike, pray for Dan, pray for Catherine and her husband. Pray for Jimmy, pray for all the people that we promised to pray for, and have asked us to pray for them, pray for Don.
We ask you dear Lady, Queen of Peace, that you will please hear the prayers that Jesus has asked me to come and to do here. We want to be united to the Masses going on around the world. The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present. And so we focus on the gift of Jesus who died on the cross for our sins. We focus on this special day, the Feast of All Souls, and we thank You dear Jesus, for dying for our sins. We thank You dear Jesus for the gifts that You have given to us and we ask You please, that graces be outpoured to souls in purgatory, that as we pray here, that they may know eternal rest in Your heavenly Kingdom.
Dear God, forgive us for our sins and help us to be one. Help the Church and the world and the individual Christians to be more and more in that image of Jesus. As the Incarnation goes on in us, let us realize that the great message that God has given to us, the message of how Our Lady is so important in our lives, in the life of the Church, in the life of the world, that the individual Christian, the Church and the world is in the state of becoming. And so we ask you, Our heavenly Mother, Queen of Peace, Our Lady of Clearwater, to wrap your arms, your mantle around us, that as we go to the Immaculate Heart of our Spiritual Mother, that the Holy Spirit indeed will outpour, will shower His graces upon us, for all of our needs, that the will of God be done on this earth as it is in heaven.
Dear God, we are sorry for our sins, we are sorry for those that have not understood in the Church and in the world, how important the role of Our Lady is. That she is the Mother of the Church, that she is our heavenly Mother, that as we go to the Immaculate Heart of Our Mother that the Holy Spirit works more and more, forming us in that Christic image, for which the Church and the world and the individual Christian exist for.
Dear God, it is a pilgrim Church. Dear God, as we look to the world, we see all the secularism and the killing of the babies, the killing of the babies in the womb of their mother, the tearing of the arms and their legs and their head in abortion. And we cry out to you in great pain to hear our sorrow, as Mary has appeared to me since 1994 - 18 years, with these messages. The messages that God wants us to do today are found in the Blue Book 9. It's actually a rosary that I was given in front of the Blessed Sacrament on October 13, 1995, in Jackson, Michigan. In doing this retreat and meditating on the Joyful Mysteries now, we begin.
Song: The Rosary Song
R. And we pray dear God, please look into our hearts and hear our plaintiff cry, for our country, for this election, that Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Please dear God, hear our prayer, please dear God, please dear Jesus, You have called us here to this building in Clearwater to pray, where Our Lady appeared as Our Lady of Clearwater. Please heavenly Mother, intercede for us to God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, to forgive us for our sins, to help make reparation for our offenses against God and to look upon those in the country that are trying to raise their families, that are trying to be united, that are trying to live and do what God wants, even though they may not do it perfectly, but their hearts are willing and open and wanting this country to be the land of Our Lady, the land that God wants it to be. Dear God hear our prayer.

Excerpt from January 21, 2008
When Jesus appeared to me in the mural
over the altar in China — light was on
Him — like a bolt of lightening coming
downFirst I saw this light as if it came
upon Him, His whole body shown
lighted — so brightly, but it was
as if a light came as a beam from
the direction shown — from
aboveLIGHT, LIGHT, LIGHT
Jesus spoke through me then —

Guiding Light
- Reflect on the Word
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.

Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the
Liturgical Year

|
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. $15 | ||
|
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. $15 |
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. $15 |
|
Guiding Light - The Word Alive in Our Hearts. - Cycle A (partial) — Homilies by the Reverend Joe Robinson given at St. Boniface Church in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is a tremendous honor Fr. Joe has allowed us to share these great gifts with you – for greater holiness and knowing more and more about God. $10 |
