From Today's First Reading at mass

Every word of God is unalloyed,
    a shield to those who take refuge in him.
To his words make no addition,
    lest he reprove you and
    account you a liar.

Two things I beg of you,
    do not grudge me them before I die:
keep falsehood and lies far from me,
    give me neither poverty nor riches,
    grant me only my share of food,
for fear that, surrounded by plenty, I should fall away
    and say, ‘Yahweh—who is Yahweh?’
or else, in destitution, take to stealing
    and profane the name of my God.

 

    Today's Psalm

                Psalm 119: 29, 72, 89, 101, 104, 163

Keep me far from the way of deceit,
grant me the grace of your Law.

The Law you have uttered is more precious to me
than all the wealth in the world.

For ever, Yahweh, your word
is planted firm in heaven

I restrain my foot from evil paths
to keep your word.

From your precepts I learn wisdom,
so I hate all deceptive ways.

Falsehood I hate and detest,
my love is for your Law.

 

   Today's Gospel

Luke 9: 1-6

He called the Twelve together and gave them power and authority over all devils and to cure diseases, and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal. He said to them, Take nothing for the journey: neither staff, nor haversack, nor bread, nor money; and do not have a spare tunic. Whatever house you enter, stay there; and when you leave let your departure be from there. As for those who do not welcome you, when you leave their town shake the dust from your feet as evidence against them. So they set out and went from village to village proclaiming the good news and healing everywhere.

Messenger:      Division, Anger, Argumentation and LIGHT, LOVE AND JOY

                        Joy is in the Savior

                            With regard to communication
                        in a dialogue with a person or persons,
                        not rooted in the truth, they can project
                        untruths on the other, it can be a dialogue
                        with the evil inside when untruths
                        are projected on the other, evil accusations
                        hatred etc.

                            The heart of Christ is pure and gentle, rooted
                        in the truth.

                            When one argues and is rooted
                       in an evil heart, the tongue is
                       cunning, twisting words and not
                       speaking the truth.

                           A person in gentle nature may stoop
                       to try to make resolve when that
                       is impossible for one who is
                       attacking and wanting conflict.

                           A person can use other means
                        coming from an evil heart, projecting
                        disharmony into the situation, argumentation,
                        not peace. They want conflict for the
                        sake of dialogue — they want to
                        catch another into a trap — like a
                        web —

                            Nothing will be resolved — the mode
                        is attack and the other, if a peaceable
                        person, can be greatly disturbed by
                        the conflict, but unable to resolve
                        the issue for the attacking person
                        wants this anger directed at the
                        other.

                            Neither of these modes of communication
                        comes from love — they come from
                        seeds of anger and evil wanting
                        disharmony and can be caused by
                        some mood altering substances.

                            The age old battle exists for
                        dominance directed at the other —
                        dominance for power lost in another
                        situation —

                            If one is in the house with lots
                        of flu they may see how "catching
                        germs" can infect another. Babies
                        with colds can spread infection.

                            For one who has an angry heart
                        it is much like infection — they attack
                        because of what is inside of them —
                        they can be argumentative, hateful,
                        seeking dominance or all three —
                        A person with a pure heart does not
                        wish to be attacked by anger
                        and untruths rooted in an impure
                        heart, but it is like an attack staged
                        at the other. To open any door the
                        hungry angry dogs will come out
                        of the basement. Substance abuse
                        can be a source for greater attacks,
                        lack of peace about ones
                        life situation, ones direction for
                        the future, physical ailments
                        etc.

                            Irritability and confrontation
                        may come because of conditions
                        of the body, hunger, fatigue, etc.,
                        but for a person to be in an attack
                        mode, they do not need a conflict to
                        stage the attack — a cup cake on the
                        table can be their pot of explosives if
                        they wish to use it.

                            Lets look at the heart — a heart
                        rooted in truth, saturated with
                        God's grace, deeply seeking peace and
                        love — does not like argumentation
                        or conflict, some dialogue is
                        necessary to move a person into
                        a meeting of minds, some dialogue
                        almost seems impossible if the
                        parties are being blocked in understanding
                        by satan's attempts to cause confusion —

                            Seeking resolve to a situation when
                        the parties are being attacked with
                        confusion is different than conflict —
                        with attack coming from a heart
                        filled with anger and hatred and based
                        on untruths.

                            I seeked the truth at all costs —
                        I found my answer in Jesus Christ —
                        I stooped to empty myself of hatred
                        and any anger — like a child washing
                        away dirty spots on their skin after
                        a hard day of play —

                            I stooped to look deep within
                        seeking to know pressure points
                        within myself that could cause any
                        quick reaction or be used to distort
                        any situation because of previous
                        pains and anger in past relationships —
                        even hidden in childhood —

                            I found in myself the desire to be
                        holy and pure and the necessity of prayer
                        constant pray (not day long, as much as
                        constant meaning, a constant purpose,
                        unwavering of being a person of peace,
                        one of truth, one of love).

                            Purity is sought after by one seeking
                        holiness. A person seeking holiness wants
                        to know the truth for greater oneness,
                        they open their heart to find wounds
                        and seeking healing to find peace and
                        a heart most likened to Christ.

                            Filling oneself intentionally with
                        things on television, movies, etc.
                        against God's commands is like
                        rolling around in a dirty mud
                        puddle, you will get real dark
                        on your skin from doing that —
                        mud caked.

                            Purity is sought after —
                            is a process —
                            is why we have a life time to
                                seek to
                                want to
                                follow to
                                open to the old wounds
                                and let the waters flush out
                                the poison.

                        Praying to the Holy Spirit —

                        Going to the Eucharist —

                        Loving the Father deeply as His little
                            child can.
                        be a medicine for wounds deep
                            within —

                        If when one is squeezed hatred comes
                            out — it can show darkness
                            with in.

                        A person always seeking dominance
                            can argue continually —
                            if they lose power in one situation —
                            they can seek it in another situation —

                        Constant prayer — that is seeking to
                            do God's will all day in love
                            can be a "rear guard" to
                            passive-aggressive attacks,
                            but some want to provoke
                            until they get to the just
                            man —
                            it comes from anger inside and
                            a desire for dominance —

                        Satan is the father of lies —
                            arguing with someone not rooted
                                in the truth is like talking to a
                                moving pole —

                        They want to catch you in a trap
                            and dominate the situation —
                            another can be like one dancing
                            around a trap door —
                            with patience they go from side
                                to side avoiding the hole —
                                first left, then right — then
                                upper, then behind —

                          If satan is attempting to trip a just
                                man — he will continue to stage
                                the attack — provoking the
                                just man in passive-aggressive
                                ways — seeking to — in the end
                                watch the other wither from
                                constant attack and go in their
                                trap door —
                                proving another is not being as God
                                    wants us — trying to provoke another
                                    constantly to be dominant in
                                    passive-aggressive ways is never hidden
                                    from God —
                                    provoking passively through little
                                        mean ways of attack —
                                        continually to try the
                                        patience of others and
                                        watch them scream in the
                                        end from the duress —

                                then the passive-aggressive attacker
                                    walks away — shaking their hands
                                    saying —

                               Oh look at how they lost control —
                                    when in effect they were
                                    provoked continually by the
                                    other, who never let up —
                                    creating tension and discord —

                                The best way to live is in
                                    imitation of the Two Hearts —
                                    even in suffering —
                                    to pray for grace to withstand
                                    surprise attacks —
                                    to be smooth and vigilant  to know when
                                        one may be attacked and not
                                        give in.

                                Satan can attack through an angry
                                    heart seeking dominance —

                                Satan can attack through another —
                                    trying to try the just man's
                                    patience —

                                Satan can try to make confusion
                                    by blocking understanding
                                    between two good-willed
                                    persons.

                                Saying "I give my heart to Jesus and Mary
                                    with you in love."
                                    can help to have oneness in one
                                    mind and one heart in these
                                    situations of confusion.

                                The more the parties are deeply rooted
                                    in love — the more they are
                                    able to move ahead in peace —
                                    even after some conflict.

                                The ideal is harmony —
                                    seeking the truth of Jesus Christ —
                                    peace and love —

                                Living lives of deep consecration
                                    to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart will
                                    lead to a deeper life of love —
                                    a heart of light —
                                    one seeking the truth —

                                because of men and women differences
                                    confusion can arise —
                                    love and dialogue can help to
                                    alleviate problems
                                    prayer
                                    praying together as one
                                    going to the sacraments
                                        especially the Eucharist —

                                I was tested, and my heart was at
                                    peace, my love not wearing —
                                    the birds chirped and I said
                                    how can my heart be troubled —
                                    I who am so richly blessed
                                    and I looked at the face of Jesus
                                    hanging on the cross and I
                                    knew how he suffered —
                                    all the way to the bitter end —
                                    but He is the Light of the World —

                                    suffering can never be made
                                        synonymous with sin —
                                        A just man can suffer greatly
                                            doing right.

                                    In the death — there is the resurrection

                                    I sought the light and I was asked
                                        to suffer, tested and tried and
                                        in the suffering greater
                                        truths were revealed to me —
                                        I learned to love more deeply —
                                        to pray for the wounded part and
                                        thus to be as a healing balm
                                        for the troubled  earth —

                                    Love seeks a way —
                                    Love — Loves in conflict —
                                    Love is patient and kind even in
                                        adversity.

                                    Love is never controlled by evil —

                                    In the end love is always love —

                                    His Heart was consumed with
                                        love —
                                        so much Jesus mounted the
                                        cross and died for sinful men —
                                        so they would have life
                                            in Him.

                                     Seek first the Kingdom of God —
                                        you feeble ones and
                                        all else will fall into line —

                                     There was an army of soldiers and
                                        they could not form a line and
                                        finally after the medicine of
                                        His grace —
                                        the soldiers in His army —
                                        marched in one accord in
                                            the most perfect line
                                        they followed a priest carrying
                                            the monstrance —

                                        Jesus is here — truly present and
                                            with us.

                                        They conquered the devil with
                                            the Blood of the Lamb and
                                            the word of their testimony —

                                        Hearts — rooted in the truth —
                                            march in the army of Jesus —
                                            led by a priest —
                                            showing Christ's love!!

                                        Filled with light they march
                                            into the darkness and God's
                                            power overshadows the darkness.

                                        Jesus is the way, the truth and the life —
                                        Jesus is the Light of the World  —

                                        Intensity on our part to do God's
                                            will —
                                            Jesus came the Son of God —
                                                He did the Father's will —

                                            He teaches us to be sons of God —
                                                to be soldiers of light
                                                in His army.

                                        Pure hearts can be found in consecration
                                            to the 2 Hearts of pure love.

                                            He hung on the hill of
                                        Calvary dripping with Blood —
                                        He shed His Blood for
                                        sinful man —

                                        He shed His Blood for me!!

                                        Jesus is the Light of the world —

                                        Consumed with love He died
                                            for us.
                                       

 

 

Given September 26, 2006

Messenger:

It seems an arduous task to be here or there, when my soul is longing for bringing there to here, and I am faced with the reality that what is here is here, by the choice of those here, to continue to walk blindfully, when in fact the veil could be removed, if many would listen to the words I speak.

For the state the world is in, is not in many ways pleasing to God and yet it remains for us to be as one crying in the desert make ready a way for a day of greater peace and love and joy in which the Sacred Heart of Jesus will Reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph and there will be a certain era of peace.

I go from my bed as I feel I am summoned and even as I sleep, I see the message written on a keyboard when for 15 years I have written on paper with my pen.

I slept about this writing and to many it may not seem much, but my soul beckons me to write for I long for the resting place of light I find in God.
The nights are star studded even though the sky is black and the darkness having an intensity so dark that light seems brilliantly startling against the black sky.

Cry out Jerusalem for the blood you shed makes for nothing, if its intentions are not for a greater good.

The good are persecuted and the ones not following the way of God honored many times and the angels cry from heaven saying - "oh let you ears hear our soft wing hovering about you children of the earth to sing a lullaby for your aching soul."

But little ones you play a music of ruckus and cry day long for more and more and you do not see how you are so richly blessed.

I heard the roaring of the ocean in my heart - loud and constant and it reminds me how Mighty indeed is Our God.
Like a soft lullaby I know its call to rest my mind even in the troubled world and to gaze in my heart upon its beauty and think of the Trinity and the oneness God tells us about in this magnificent mystery.

Oneness is the word I see against a black sky.

It is written in the stars and they light the way.

I know my God tells me of the importance of devotions to the Magnificent Heart  of Jesus and the Heart of  Mary.
And I see the exposed Eucharist as it is in China, Indiana with such intensity I can barely take it in- that the Son of God remains with us truly present in the consecrated host.

I see the pillar against the dark night of the Church sailing on the ocean and the pillars of Don Bosco's vision of Jesus (the Eucharistic) and of Mary, Immaculately conceived.

I see the pope. In one moment where we are being honored, in the next may come a trashing for innocently speaking.
I see that those that raise up and cause a ruckus can do so because of anger in their own hearts, projecting hatred on other.

I know that the authority of the Church, the country will be attached and I stand in awe -for I see that structure is the plan of God.

We can not judge what is right by what is happening  here in the minds of men.

I look to when they condemned  Christ -they surrounded Him, a mob of men, and they condemned the Son of God to death.

Oh death of the body -many martyrs died for what they believed and  they went to heaven.

This is all I write for now, but the message of God's love cries out from my soul in these days of blood shed and disharmony and I want to write the message of harmony and love, forgiveness and hope on the hearts of men -to shout about the gift of the priest and the gift of our Blessed Church and open to men crying in pain the doors to peace love and joy.
God beckons me to write and to pray- for His Might can help the world in these troubled times and our deep love for God can help to bring down greater gifts from Him and mercy.

God wants us to have a relationship with Him.
One, not far off, a oneness where it is as St. Paul says "I have been crucified with Christ and yet it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me."

Who are we after all the ways we have offended Our God that He wants us to be so close to Him and remains with us truly present in the Eucharist.

The world need to turn to the Sacred Heart of Jesus- to make Him the King and center of their hearts and the King and center of their lives.

The kingdom of Christ knows no bounds.
though they beat Him and crowned Him with thorns- He reigns
Against a dark night the forces of evil have no match against God.

They hung Him on a tree against the dark sky- the clouds hung low -the rains came and in the night-the sounds of victory- of the resurrection soon behind.

Into the belly of the earth they planted one, Son of God, God-made-man, and the Church was born from His pieced Heart- Blood and water coming from His pieced side-
Water for baptism and blood for the Eucharist-

Christ's Heart formed from the womb of Mary-

Let us imitate the two Hearts of love
The new Adam and the new Eve.

I hear the roar of thunder and see a sky streaked with lightning-
in that moment the sky is lighted and I see in a darkened night -house tops-telephone poles and trees
Then like an instant dark again.

My heart knows the light streaks He has painted in my soul to glimpses into the hidden mysteries-my joy and my delight.

Joy-joy-joy for the Savior is the joy of fallen man- is He not?

Oh burning Heart, Oh love Divine how sweet You are to me- I see the host I know Your there to love and care for me.

Song "I love You Jesus"

 

In the hustle and bustle of the cars that race by it seems almost to knock you over and blare their horn
I look at the sunlit day and God tells us
"I cover the earth with a blanket for sleeping, but every day the light steals across the darkened sky and shines for your delight"

Wake my children from your sleep
Your Savior is born to you today-
open you eyes to the morning"

And as long as I have breath in my body and can speak - I speak of the Lord who is the one the hungry children thirst for-

Let no words or no discourse ever come from my lips, but one praising God for the gifts He gives to the poor banished children of Eve.

Gifts from the Savior who died to Save us- who took on flesh because of His love for us and died and rose that we could share in His life-

I am not afraid, I am empowered by my God- to shout from the highest mountain

LOOK TO THE HEAVENS AND COUNT THE STARS IF YOU CAN
GOD LIVES IN THIS WORLD-
MAKE READY A DAY WHEN THE HEARTS OF MEN WILL SAY
'HOSANNA TO OUR KING AND SAVIOR-LOOK TO HIS MAGNIFICENT SACRED HEART. ALLELUIA! AMEN.
