                R. God calls us to love. Religious
                are to obey their superiors.
                The saints and Fr. Carter showed
                us how important obedience
                to their superiors were to them
                and their connection with eternal
                life.

                    This last week we lost a wonderful
                priest who said Mass for us monthly
                since 2002. I know how much I
                will miss him and I just couldn't
                believe it and want to cry –
                even though I feel he is in
                heaven I miss and love him and
                he was so good to us.

                    I miss Fr. Carter so much – 16 years
                after his death I still cry and I
                miss him so much.

                    Last May my grandson almost
                drowned and for two weeks while
                he was in the hospital we didn't
                know what would happen. It was
                so painful, he was four – it was
                awful to think I could lose this
                little boy I loved so much and
                seeing his little body and not
                knowing was so awful. Jesus
                kept telling me he would be okay.

                    The point I want to make is I
                know pain from losing someone.
                Can you imagine the pain of going
                to hell for all eternity. As wonderful
                as heaven is, can you imagine
                being without God, without love
                for all eternity. I missed my mom
                who got cancer when I was 3
                and died when I was 5.

                    God promises us so much
                when we go to heaven. The first
                commandment tells us we must
                live in the order of being
                under God and obedient to Him
                to get to heaven.

                    We can't make ourselves
                equal to God – make ourselves
                a rival to God. God must be
                first. We are to be engaged in
                our lives and live to do what
                God commands us to do – if
                we sin we must confess that to God,
                and tell Him we are sorry
                and make recompense for our
                sin and with a firm purpose
                of amendment proceed ahead.
                We can't ignore God's commandments
                and not try to repair the breach
                we made – we are to try to be
                reconciled for sins we commit
                against God and others.

                    We can grow in our lives
                in God. We receive a sharing
                in His life in baptism. We
                can grow supernaturally
                because of baptism.

                    We see how persevering
                Abraham was. We must live
                our lives to have a strong
                way in following Christ and doing
                God's will. We have hope in Jesus.
                We have been called to live to
                praise and worship and love God –
                to do all things for the
                honor and glory of God. God has
                made a covenant of love with us.
                God is faithful to His Covenant.

                    We must do work in our
                life to follow Jesus. We are
                a fool to think it isn't
                hard work to try to change
                bad habits, but Jesus gave
                me this message at 1:30 am.
                today.

                    If a car is full of junk in
                all its lines and can't run –
                it doesn't just get better –

                    What happens to a man who
                fills his heart with rebellion,
                disobedience to God's will,
                anger and pride – A man can
                close down – put himself
                above God and all others in
                pride, fill his heart with
                smoldering anger that
                can be triggered by anything –
                jealousy, possessiveness etc.
                and then this smoldering anger
                can go into fury and rage,
                stubbornness, even like an
                unhealed child holding their
                breath to force their ways
                on others –

                    Smoldering anger – age-old
                anger needs to be healed
                and live by the greatest
                commandment.

 

Matthew 22: 36-40

'Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?' Jesus said to him, 'You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets too.'

 

Hebrews 9: 15, 24-28

This makes him the mediator of a new covenant, so that, now that a death has occurred to redeem the sins committed under an earlier covenant, those who have been called to an eternal inheritance may receive the promise.

It is not as though Christ had entered a man–made sanctuary which was merely a model of the real one; he entered heaven itself, so that he now appears in the presence of God on our behalf. And he does not have to offer himself again and again, as the high priest goes into the sanctuary year after year with the blood that is not his own, or else he would have had to suffer over and over again since the world began. As it is, he has made his appearance once and for all, at the end of the last age, to do away with sin by sacrificing himself. Since human beings die only once, after which comes judgement, so Christ too, having offered himself only once to bear the sin of many, will manifest himself a second time, sin being no more, to those who are waiting for him, to bring them salvation.

 

                R. We will live our last day –
                some day and we will be judged
                when we die by how we loved –
                How we put God first in our
                lives.

                    Eternity – never ends!
                This life is short! Eternity
                depends on how we lived
                and loved here below –
                We were created to be in
                love and unity with God
                in eternity – not for this
                life as our end.

                    How foolish to lose control for
                smoldering anger inside and
                pride to stay stuck there –
                We are to be united in Christ –
                love and encourage one another –
                Giving into the deadly sins and
                and not admitting our sins is
                foolish. God created us to walk
                in His footprints and leave
                an example by our lives.

                    See yourself on the surface
                of the earth, like a speck –
                then see yourself through
                the eyes and Heart of Jesus.

                    We were created in the image
                and likeness of Jesus. Why would we
                waste our God given gifts and
                hurt people when our true home
                in heaven depends on how we
                lived our lives.

                    Lets give our lives for God –
                love and work to help souls
                to go to Him eternally in love.

  

         

         

        

 

                R. God has a plan for us –
                we have a duty to do His
                will. How can a person
                nurse anger for days and
                ignore doing God's will for their
                anger.

                    The other day I was praying
                and all of a sudden Mary's
                statue was covered with
                Golden light.

 

 

                R. We are pilgrims on a
                journey – we are to die to our
                sinful, selfish ways and
                live in love and be soldiers
                of Jesus. Live by the Standard
                of Jesus – not the Standard of satan.

                    Our true home is in heaven.

                    We give God our hearts.

                R. I LOVE THIS!
 

Hebrews 11: 1-2, 8-19

Only faith can guarantee the blessings that we hope for, or prove the existence of realities that are unseen. It is for their faith that our ancestors are acknowledged.

    It was by faith that Abraham obeyed the call to set out for a country that was the inheritance given to him and his descendants, and that he set out without knowing where he was going. By faith he sojourned in the Promised Land as though it were not his, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. He looked forward to the well–founded city, designed and built by God. 

    It was equally by faith that Sarah, in spite of being past the age, was made able to conceive, because she believed that he who had made the promise was faithful to it. Because of this, there came from one man, and one who already had the mark of death on him, descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and the grains of sand on the seashore which cannot be counted. 

    All these died in faith, before receiving any of the things that had been promised, but they saw them in the far distance and welcomed them, recognising that they were only strangers and nomads on earth. People who use such terms about themselves make it quite plain that they are in search of a homeland. If they had meant the country they came from, they would have had the opportunity to return to it; but in fact they were longing for a better homeland, their heavenly homeland. That is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, since he has founded the city for them. 

    It was by faith that Abraham, when put to the test, offered up Isaac. He offered to sacrifice his only son even though he had yet to receive what had been promised, and he had been told: Isaac is the one through whom your name will be carried on. He was confident that God had the power even to raise the dead; and so, figuratively speaking, he was given back Isaac from the dead.

 

                R. Dear God increase our faith.

                    Are we realizing that some day
                we will die. We will stand before
                God and be judged. Mary always
                asks us to pray for the souls on
                the edge of death. She especially
                asked for that December 17, on the
                29th anniversary when she
                appeared in Clearwater
                December 17, 1996.

                    She tells us souls are going to hell
                like rain.

                    Jesus gave Fr. Carter these
                prayers. They are powerful.

Hebrews 11: 2-40

It is for their faith that our ancestors are acknowledged.

   It is by faith that we understand that the ages were created by a word from God, so that from the invisible the visible world came to be.

   It was because of his faith that Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain, and for that he was acknowledged as upright when God himself made acknowledgement of his offerings. Though he is dead, he still speaks by faith.

   It was because of his faith that Enoch was taken up and did not experience death: he was no more, because God took him; because before his assumption he was acknowledged to have pleased God. Now it is impossible to please God without faith, since anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and rewards those who seek him.

   It was through his faith that Noah, when he had been warned by God of something that had never been seen before, took care to build an ark to save his family. His faith was a judgement on the world, and he was able to claim the uprightness which comes from faith.

   It was by faith that Abraham obeyed the call to set out for a country that was the inheritance given to him and his descendants, and that he set out without knowing where he was going. By faith he sojourned in the Promised Land as though it were not his, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. He looked forward to the well-founded city, designed and built by God.

   It was equally by faith that Sarah, in spite of being past the age, was made able to conceive, because she believed that he who had made the promise was faithful to it.

Because of this, there came from one man, and one who already had the mark of death on him, descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and the grains of sand on the seashore which cannot be counted.

   All these died in faith, before receiving any of the things that had been promised, but they saw them in the far distance and welcomed them, recognising that they were only strangers and nomads on earth. People who use such terms about themselves make it quite plain that they are in search of a homeland. If they had meant the country they came from, they would have had the opportunity to return to it; but in fact they were longing for a better homeland, their heavenly homeland. That is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, since he has founded the city for them.

   It was by faith that Abraham, when put to the test, offered up Isaac. He offered to sacrifice his only son even though he had yet to receive what had been promised, and he had been told: Isaac is the one through whom your name will be carried on. He was confident that God had the power even to raise the dead; and so, figuratively speaking, he was given back Isaac from the dead.

   It was by faith that this same Isaac gave his blessing to Jacob and Esau for the still distant future. By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph's sons, bowed in reverence, as he leant on his staff. It was by faith that, when he was about to die, Joseph mentioned the Exodus of the Israelites and gave instructions about his own remains.

   It was by faith that Moses, when he was born, was kept hidden by his parents for three months; because they saw that he was a fine child; they were not afraid of the royal edict. It was by faith that, when he was grown up, Moses refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter and chose to be ill-treated in company with God's people rather than to enjoy the transitory pleasures of sin. He considered that the humiliations offered to the Anointed were something more precious than all the treasures of Egypt, because he had his eyes fixed on the reward. It was by faith that he left Egypt without fear of the king's anger; he held to his purpose like someone who could see the Invisible. It was by faith that he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood to prevent the Destroyer from touching any of their first-born sons. It was by faith they crossed the Red Sea as easily as dry land, while the Egyptians, trying to do the same, were drowned.

   It was through faith that the walls of Jericho fell down when the people had marched round them for seven days. It was by faith that Rahab the prostitute welcomed the spies and so was not killed with the unbelievers.

   What more shall I say? There is not time for me to give an account of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, or of David, Samuel and the prophets. These were men who through faith conquered kingdoms, did what was upright and earned the promises. They could keep a lion's mouth shut, put out blazing fires and emerge unscathed from battle. They were weak people who were given strength to be brave in war and drive back foreign invaders. Some returned to their wives from the dead by resurrection; and others submitted to torture, refusing release so that they would rise again to a better life. Some had to bear being pilloried and flogged, or even chained up in prison. They were stoned, or sawn in half, or killed by the sword; they were homeless, and wore only the skins of sheep and goats; they were in want and hardship, and maltreated. They were too good for the world and they wandered in deserts and mountains and in caves and ravines. These all won acknowledgment through their faith, but they did not receive what was promised, since God had made provision for us to have something better, and they were not to reach perfection except with us.  

 

                R. Jesus cast out demons in
                the Gospel. Think about this.

                    We die, but it can be our
                birth into eternal life – WOW

	God created us and wants us with Him eternally in heaven. We are to be witnesses in life like those who went before us – living in Jesus. Jesus loves us and wants to operate in us.      Jesus performed miracles – even raising the dead –
	Jesus performed miracles –     Jesus cast out demons – Jesus calmed the storm. Cured the lepers; Jesus cured the blind and lame, Jesus walked on water – Jesus fed with the loaves and fish Jesus was transfigured!

                Jesus taught with parables

                    The Prodigal Son – God loves
                            and we need to repent –

                    The Sower of the Seed – Man must
                            cooperate with
                            God's grace.

                    The Hidden treasure

                    Weeds in the field

                    The two sons – let your 'yes'
                            mean 'yes' –
                            your 'no' mean 'no'

                    The vine dresser

                    The barren fig tree

                    The man knocking insistently

                    The Good Samaritan

                    The Two Debtors

                    The Lost Sheep

                    The 10 Virgins

                    The 10 Talents

                It is so foolish to try to
                    control things when so much
                    is unknown.

                How can we control so much
                    when we know so little.

                God calls us to faith –
                God wants us to trust Him –

                    We don't know even when we
                will die – We are to prepare for
                death – God has promised us
                so much.

 

"What no eye has seen and no ear has heard, what the mind of man cannot visualise; all that God has prepared for those who love him;" 1 Corinthians 2:9

 

                R. We are to live life's trials to
                grow in greater life in God –
                to rely more on God –

                    We are not to be angry –
                and prideful, jealous,
                envious, slothful,
                punishing, lustful or
                gluttonous –

                Jesus is our Savior.

                Song: A Song from Jesus

 

Hebrews 13: 1-8

Continue to love each other like brothers, and remember always to welcome strangers, for by doing this, some people have entertained angels without knowing it. Keep in mind those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; and those who are being badly treated, since you too are in the body. Marriage must be honoured by all, and marriages must be kept undefiled, because the sexually immoral and adulterers will come under God's judgement. Put avarice out of your lives and be content with whatever you have; God himself has said: I shall not fail you or desert you, and so we can say with confidence: With the Lord on my side, I fear nothing: what can human beings do to me?

Remember your leaders, who preached the word of God to you, and as you reflect on the outcome of their lives, take their faith as your model. Jesus Christ is the same today as he was yesterday and as he will be for ever.

 

                R. Paul tells us to be hospitable
                Paul tells us to be pure
                Paul tells us to love –

                Follow Jesus –
                Follow the saints –
                live by Jesus' teachings
                let the Word live in your hearts –
                be disciplined.

                Live the will of God in love –
                Obey the Commandments –

                    John the Baptist was one preparing
                the way of the Lord –

                    He lost his head – what a
                        witness –

                Follow the saints

                Model your lives after Jesus and Mary.               

                We were created in the image
                    and likeness of God.
                    Jesus is perfect!
                    Jesus is the New Adam!
                    Jesus is our Savior!

                Jesus gives us the Holy Sacrifice
                    of the Mass!!

                Jesus shed His Blood for our sins

                Jesus loves me so much and
                    gave Himself up for me.

                Jesus gives us Himself today
                    in the Eucharist –

                We are to follow the Good Shepherd –

                Praise God and love Him be
                    so filled with gratitude
                    for the Church.

                Jesus is meek and tender of Heart.

                We are to be like this –

                We are to be like Jesus and
                    battle against evil – the
                    deadly sins and live virtuously.

                Jesus is the Light of the World –
                    In Him is no darkness –

                We are to live through Christ
                    and In Him –

                God is our Father and He loves
                    us so much and created us
                    in the image and likeness
                    of God.

                Jesus showed us that people
                    flocked around Him.

                As we go through ordinary
                    times in the 5th and 6th
                    week we read from Genesis.
                    Jesus rested on the 7th Day.

                We are to keep holy the Sabbath Day!

                God created everything from
                    nothing.

                He created us in the image and
                    likeness of God –
                    We are to follow Jesus.
                    Jesus is the perfect man.
                    Jesus was humble –
                    Jesus worked hard we see
                        that, Jesus showed us
                        His purity –
                    Jesus prayed to His Father –
                    Jesus wants us to be holy,
                        not selfish, bitter,
                        angry, prideful,
                        envious, slothful,
                        jealous –

                Jesus is the Way, the Truth and
                    the Life.

                Do you remember the deaf man
                    and Jesus healed him –
                    He said EPHPHATHA –
                    that meant "be opened"

                We must have a relationship
                    with Jesus –
                    open our hearts –
                    Keep Jesus in our hearts –
                    We must not fill our
                    heart with lies,
                    deception, anger, pride,
                    jealousies, envy, argumentation,
                    disobedience, hatred if
                    we want Jesus in our heart.

                The more we give into these
                    things we move away
                    from Jesus and let satan in.

                If Jesus is not in your
                    heart and satan is,
                    you live in anger
                    and darkness.

                Jesus wants relationship with us.
                Jesus wants to be our friend.

                We must live to never want
                    to offend Jesus or
                    drive Him from our
                    heart.

                Jesus loves us so much.
 

 

                R. Jesus loves us and feeds us
                    with Himself.

                God wants us to pray for an increase
                    of the virtues of faith, hope
                    and charity –

                We need to pray for an increase
                    in the virtues –

                God has called us to live
                    our lives according
                    to the Father's will in
                    love.

                The more that a person works
                    to spread the work of
                    Christ – the more the
                    devil can work to try
                    to block them, like yeast raising.
                    The devil wants hatred – never love –
                        especially love of God –

                The devil wants women killing
                    babies and he works to
                    discredit people who are
                    trying to bring rules that
                    are wrong back to God's rules.

                The devil is always at work –
                    blocking a person trying
                    to help souls, love Jesus
                    and go to heaven by living
                    a holy life pleasing to God.

                    At the time of Noah – God flooded
                the earth.

                    To be one with God we must
                live to die to bad habits and
                grow in virtue.

                    Mary said at Fatima that
                we must seek conversion.
                To be close to God we must
                seek to be holy. God is
                All perfect!

                    Jesus tells us that He
                is a suffering Messiah!

                    We must grow in the interior life,
                where God is one in us. We must
                seek to be good in our actions –
                our goal of our actions – eternal salvation.
                We perform actions to reach this goal.
                We are limited by never wanting
                to offend God – we want to
                love God first and obey
                the Father's will.
                We want to please God in
                all we do. We do not let
                our heart be full of anger
                and meanness to others.

                    We must seek the truth always
                if we want to be close to God –
                God is absolute truth. Deception
                cannot be like weeds in our
                hearts.

                    God wants us to work in love
                with those He has put in our lives
                for the building of His Kingdom.
                The devil wants division and
                wants to discredit authority so
                he can operate when a person
                underneath disobeys just
                authority – satan rules
                in their disorder.

                    In disobeying and discrediting
                in this disorder – the
                person doing so, wants to get those
                under them also to join them
                and rebel against authority.
                This causes confusion and
                is giving a very bad example
                of disorder when a person is
                put in authority over some,
                but discredit authority over
                them to control and cause disorder.

                    A person in authority is to
                rule in truth under God
                and keep that order – not
                put themselves over just
                authority and give very bad
                example with their authority.

                    Division, disobedience, manipulation
                for a person under just authority and
                over others is DISORDER in
                which satan works.

                    Passive-aggressive ways of
                manipulation are used by one
                acting to go undetected when their
                intent is to bring down the
                house undetected and sabotage
                what is to happen – had they
                not worked to take it out.
                Tricks and manipulation against
                authority for power and
                control is out of order. Satan is
                at work in this.

                God operates in structure and
                order.

                    God wants us to work peacefully
                in doing His work for the love and
                spreading of His Kingdom and to
                help souls.

                    The devil works in disorder
                pride and punishment and evil and
                anger. The devil uses an audience
                against just authority to bring
                down a just authority by
                one being operated and giving
                into satan, who wants to control
                in the disorder.
