Deb's Podcast

We never know when God will call on us to be his instrument for his people.  God in his own time and way, has the ability to work through us in faith as his children.  Should we be bias toward Christ, yes, we should.  Our eternal life depends on it!

Christ chooses his own to come forward with courage and wisdom to speak the truth and to invite hearts that are ready and open to hear the great news to this heavenly banquet, this table of plenty, in his truth and in his knowledge. 

The great news is this.  Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.  To be free, is to be in total communion with Jesus.  How do we commune with Him?  We do so in constant daily repetitive prayer.  Prayer brings us closer to Him, closer to the truth, closer to knowing ourselves through knowing Christ himself.  Open the bible.  Read a small paragraph each night.  Reflect in silence.  Listen past the silence.  And enter into our Lords presence...

We follow in Christs love by offering to Him our obedience.  We follow him because we love his ways.  His ways are obedience, and his obedience toward us,  teaches us, to become disciplined.  Disciplined in holy scripture.  Disciplined in thought, word, deed, and action.  Each of the four have their place in our lives.  Especially in our life in Christ.  

In thought we can think of Christ as our saviour, as our mentor, as our holy father.  In word we can trust holy doctrine written by man but divinely inspired by Christ.  In deed we can offer to another our thoughts and our words, but in reality they are truly Gods and His alone.  In action, well, that is exactly where Christ begins to shine himself through us without us even realizing it.

And how do I know this?  It is because his sons and his daughters are fortright, they are covered in his armour, his helmet, his breastplate, and his sword. Christ covers his children completely as his own, as they go out into the world, Christ prepares us through faith, so we are able and ready to go into full battle.  

It's a very real full blown spiritual battle against and for ones soul,a fight against Good And Evil...A definte threat against what is good, what is pure, what is perfect, and beautiful, God created, and his number one enemy despises.

That exact enemy wants so badly to destroy and snatch away each and soul the very second a final breadth is taken away from your body.  

We cannot afford to lose our very own precious souls for an eternity in exchange for a poor choice such as SIN.  We must be smarter in the realm of FAITH--- than the evil one.  We must understand the severity of HIS truth we are being given.  The absolute truth given is this.   We must become very aware of protecting the destiny of our soul and not ever lose faith, but invest in it, to prepare what is yet to come with and in and through Christ Jesus.  

His purpose for us is yet to be lived to completion.  No soul should ever lose sight of the importance of God, NOT for a single second!  Your purpose driven life, HE the Christ is waiting very anxiously to give to you.

Don't miss this serious opportnity.  Take it Very Seriously.  We are given ONE chance.  ONE life.. ONE destiny... Think...Reflect...Pray... Pray Without Ceasing... Time is short... Death cannot be escaped.  Remain in holiness.  Remain In Christ.  In HIS very life, in HIS very truth, In HIS light, For HE and Only HE is "THE WAY".  And those who follow Him, have everything!

I have highlighted in my bible certain verses within the book of wisdom within the catholic bible to share with you.  You can read them each three times and listen to the thoughts coming to you from them, which are actually being given to you by God.  That is what we call Lectio Divina.  Give it a try.  All referenced from the book of Wisdom....  Chapter 1 Verse4:  "Into a soul that plots evil wisdom enters not."  Chapter2 Verse 4: Even  our name will be forgotten in time, and no one will recall our deeds.  Verse 5: Our lifetime is the passing of a shadow, and no one returns.  Verse 9:  Everywhere let us leave tokens of our rejoicing, for this our portion is, and this our lot.  Chapter 2 Verse 23:  God formed man to be imperishable; the image of his own nature he made him.  Verse 24: By the envy of the devil, death entered the world, and they who are in his possession experience it.  Chapter 3 Verse 9:  Those who trust shall abide with him in love, because they are his holy ones.  Verse 10:  The wicked shall receive a punishment to match their thoughts since they neglect justice and forsook the Lord.  Verse 11:  Vain is their hope, fruitless are their labors, worthless ar their works.  Verse 12:  Their wives are foolish and their children wicked; accursed is their brood. Verse 16:  Children of adulterers will remain without issue.  Verse 17: Should they attain long life, they will be held in no esteem, and dishonored will their old age be.  Verse 18:  Should they die abruptly, they have no hope nor comfort in the day of scrutiny; for dire is the end of the wicked generation.  Chapter 12: Therefore you rebuke offenders little by little, warn them, remind them of the sins they are committing, that they may abandon their wickedness and believe in you, O'Lord.

Gods ways, my brothers and sisters of Christ, are commanded of all of whom He has created.  Its never ever easy to look at the dark truth presented to us, when we talk about good fighting against evil, but God is the only light burning bright available to bring souls back to salvation.  God is a God of order.  Having order in this life helps us to see clearly the truth always and in every circumstance.  Do not run away.  But run forward, sprint if you must, toward the God that created you and loves you more than your sins.  Show your face to a Catholic Priest, have a heart felt confession, clean out your very soul this day, for the hour glass is running out.  

Jesus is kind, gracious, and merciful.  Very merciful.  But in his very teachings He is very firm.  Knowing exactly what is best for us, he gives us the beautiful gift of free will, so as to enjoy the freedom given to us, having and following healthy parameters within the obedience of his truths.    

The cross.  The crucified Christ.  The last moments of Jesus life were spent in suffocation, and excruiating pain, as his body hung from a cross with his hands spread across it with nails pierced through his hands and feet.  No one died a more horrific, humiliating death, naked on the cross, wearing a crown of thorns that penetrated painfully into his bleeding skull.

And all along, our precious Christ, was thirsting not for himself, but for all of humanity.  To awaken from the inner spiritual darkness that subtly and indefinitely destroys all souls not prepared for the true understanding of our existence and for our eternal life.  

Christ our light, wanted for each and everyone of us, as his creation, as his children, to find him, because he had wanted you and I for himself.  Why does that become so important?  Because we were created by God to love him, to serve him, and be forever with him, in this life and into the next.  We were all made in his image and in his likeness.  But the power of free will gave man the ability to either follow good or follow evil.   

When man had fallen into a deep pit of darkness, because of choosing evil, a great darkness overhadowed him.  The light of Christ, he could no longer see.  Instead he followed the darkness of his own conscience, his own ways, walking away from the light, walking away from God himself.  Overshadowed by darkness, in a place where, only evil prevailed.  Where there is sin, there is darkness, where there is darkness there is confusion, and where there is confusion, the evil one lurks, scheming up new ways for you to expound upon your sinful nature.  Sin is a jail sentence.  It lurks in the dark, and it locks you up in secrecy, as if physically imprisioned with a ball and chain around your neck.  

Can we awaken from the darkness we have chosen?  Absolutely!  As we chose evil we can easily reverse our decison and choose righteousness, and by choosing Christ to be the most important decision of our life, because he is love, all joy, all peace, all hope, we would all benefit throughout our lifetime on earth and eternity in heaven, because Christ will bring to us the truth of our existence, he will reveal to us our true purpose and a life so meaningful, that will keep us fruitful, that even the evil one will be jealous.  

Why the Cross?  Because the price has already been paid in full!  Christ did it all for us, so that we could be free.  Free of sin.  Free of evil.  Free of the poorest of all choices that cause man and woman to fall, and become prey to the evil one, and to remain locked up, in darkness, forever!  It is a place, that none of us should ever consider.  

Evil will not prevail, if man and woman, look at hell, as a complete loss, and a total waste of time.  What are we really doing here?  We are tearing down humanity when we choose evil, and we are disgracing our creator, our Lord, our Saviour, and ourselves.  Why endure all of that when our Lord already paid the heftiest price.  We should be thinking of ways every single day to bring ourselves closer to Christ, and through living a prayerful, holy, and purposeful life, we can find him along side of us with every step, breadth, decision, and outcome.  Let us use the intellect we were given for his greater glory.  Let us use our intellect to build up the church, to build up our brothers and sisters in Christ, by doing so we preserve the faith, by doing so we can walk humbly with our God, and with our loved ones, and just maybe we can save all souls from final damnation.

If and only if we want to overcome every single imperfection deep within ourselves we must deny our desires and welcome Christ back into our daily lives.  Pain, sorrow, regret, mistakes of the past can do either two things, have us look deep within our very soul, and take very seriously the gift of deep reflection which (I believe is truly a gift from God) giving us a chance subtly to on our own to clean out of our soul, or simply deny the truth our conscience (which is given to us by Christ) as all great gifts are, revealing great accountability of previous actions that have in fact, affected other people, and more importantly your very own eternal salvation.  This becomes quite serious, if and only if we are looking at it with the eyes of Christ.  You see, Christ is in you whether you like it or not.  In Him you move and you are.  When we forget we are in Christ, we sin terribly.  We use the greater gifts he has given to us, but instead of using them for his greater glory, we go in another direction.  We run from God, with the power of the holy spirit that he gave us, that is housed in our very soul, we abandon Him with the greatest gifts he has given only to run amuck and follow other schemes.  When all along we should have remained in total obedience to his calling of us, and the more meaningful work we could have been doing.  So we learn the hard way, we lose ourselves to time, when we could be investing in the time he is given to us to invest in our eternal salvation.  At some point we stop running away from God and we start running toward him.  And when we start running toward him, he reveals to us exactly what is expected as we make our life long journey toward him.  It is at that point we realize there is no place to hide from God.  We are seen by him in the darkness and in the light of our choices, our consciences, in the way we carry ourself, in the way we speak, and how we treat other human beings.  Our life is but one big test, we are either going to pass or fail, yes, God is keeping tabs on all of us, and if we are smart, we will get our act together before it is too late.  Once we return to good standing, God's grace can then begin to flow.  Some of the truly happiest people in the world are faithful to Christ, and in return receive a joy and a peace this world could never offer.  I dare you to test the waters of Christ in his truths, they are rock solid, and worthy, very worthy of investigating.  I am I believe in my heart here to convince you of the greatest decision in your life and that it has to do with having this amazing relationship with Christ Jesus.  He has the power to turn your life around, even inside out, and He is so worth it because his grace will begin to flow in you like a fountain, and he has the power to forever quench the thirst of your every desire.  To live in Him is sublime!  To know Him is to love Him, and to love Him, is to experience the truest love of your life.  In God there isnt confusion.  In God there is simplicity of truth.  Simplicity of joy. Simplicity of love.  And that love carries over into our spirit and into the worldly realm transforming society, in a great and awesome way!  We have little time to waste, and every second to offer Christ our best self.  Let us begin today, right now, in giving him our yes!  And our lives will transform into the children of light, the children of hope, the children of love, that this world is so in desperate need of.         

The special feast day of Saint John Vianney is upon us.  We are exponentially blessed as Catholic's to celebrate their memorial and reflect upon God's goodness in our lives.  Whether we are in deep prayer within a holy adoration hour, or  reciting the holy rosary and participating in daily mass, there is an abundance of grace to be received by the faithful.  Are you faithful?  Are you interested in becoming the best version of yourself?  God is waiting to receive your yes today.  As Christians we have an advantage that non Christians are missing out on, that is the gift of faith.  This precious gift is there for anyone desiring to be in a relationship with Jesus Christ.  Fortunately for us our Blessed Mother, the apostles, all the angels and saints have participated in the awe and wonder and great mystery of God and his most perfect plans for his creation.  We were fearfully and wonderfully made in his likeness and image.  We were born in our mothers womb and brought into the world with a beautiful temple that houses our very soul.  That too is Gods awesome gift to us because even though our bodies will die, our souls will go on to live forever in eternity.  How blessed are we that we can discuss all the greatest gifts, given to us, from God. How often do we stop and pause and think about this and actually do it?  The greatest gift, is the gift of life!  God fashioned us in a lovely way.  He purposely wanted us to co exist in Him, because of his great love for us.  With every creation we, you, and I, were born for a great purpose.  To know God, to love God, to serve God, in this life, and into the next.  When we awaken to this reality, this truth, we contemplate the serious nature of our being, and god willing we go on a quest to figure it all out every detail imaginable relating to our existence.  In order to accomplish the entire truth, we must establish a relationship with our creator.  Once our relationship is established, we can think, we can pray, we can speak from our heart to our Lord directly and experience the most amazing dialogue.  We are spiritual beings.  And the holy spirit lives within each and every person our Lord has created.  Your birth  was NOT a mistake.  You were made for Gods greater glory.  In God we find perfection, although, you and I are imperfect people, we look up to God to guide us.  God listens, God sees everything about us.  How we think, what we say, what we do, and so forth. God knows exactly where and what we are lacking.  To be a mature Christian, one has to become honest with oneself and with ones God.  Only then can spiritual maturity flourish in ones soul and in ones spirit.  I believe we were meant for greatness, for holiness, for a profoundness in Christ, and in his most holy Mother, Mary.  I believe we were meant to immitate the lives of the Saints, and take the God given gifts we were given at our Baptism and expound upon them throughout the duration of our lifetime.  If we are truly paying attention to God, we will hear him speak directly to our hearts and we will respond appropriately to the God given grace he is outpouring into us so that we can be Holy in his sight.  We have alot of work to do in a very short period of time given to us while we are living on earth.  Let us recognize the serious nature of our being and remain totally focused on this great gift of life, and bring it to fruition, now, while we still have life and breath in us.  This my brothers and sisters in Christ, would be ever most pleasing to our God.  I know for me personally, I want to delve deeply into the lives of the saints, and learn as much as I can so I can share that knowledge, wisdom, and rich spriritual history of our Catholic faith with all of Gods children who are ready to experience an enriching conversion of their soul, so that at the same time they are being drawn ever closer to Christ through the greatest of all mysteries.  The mystery of faith.  

When we trust fully our lives to God, we can experience an amazing life.  When I was searching for Him, he led me beautifully though time and experience and beauty.  The majority of it was under the sea.  Why I loved that journey so much was because I was able to seek him, and find him, and delve more deeply into the Catholic faith in solidude, on my own, the Lord and I and my guardian angel had a blast!  Christ reveals every detail of truth when we cooperate with his grace.  I have learned that the beauty of faith goes beyond knowledge, it enters into different realms as we choose to remain free in Him.  For the Lord knew I was searching and placing Him in the forefront of my search, he added a flare of adventure to my life that he knew I would like very much.  There are many gifts and graces given to us by God, we just have to allow those gifts and graces to flow naturally and we receive them with great surprise.  It could have been partially that and partially the intervention of my ancestors for they too were adventurous souls.  Traveling from Naples Italy and Baranova Poland seeking what they thought would bring them the life truly worthy of living.  You and I are no different.  We too are seeking and trying to unravel the truths we need to know as we traverse the universe in the great company of the great IAM.  All the above are willed by the Holy Spirit living in us.  I am so grateful to share and inspire you my podcaster follower, perhaps there is an adventure you are desiring to experience and when we include God and place Him way up front of everything else because all else comes directly from Him, we get to really see his power and understand who we are in Him.  I discovered through this adventure, I could write, I could photograph, and I could explore the underworld as a diver appreciating everything He had created under the earth.  Not too many people are willing to go to this extent, but that was something that captured my attention and my late paternal Italian Godmother would always comment Arent you afraid of the sharks?  What are you looking for down there? I guess I was searching for my true identity even though at the time I didn't fully understand it.  You see, we are all searching for something, but in essence it is God with whom we are searching for.  It doesnt matter if we are traveling the globe, or every corner of the earth, it is Jesus we are trying to find, trying to understand, trying to meet.  And when we find Him we stop running.  We center ourselves within his company, and his holy presence, enters deeply into our soul.  Then, we comfortably surrender into Christs heart.  Because as St. Augustine would tell us, "Our very hearts are restless until they rest in Thee".  No truer words my fellow podcasters!  So I am now resting in the loving company of our Lord some thirty four years later and I am a much more completed individual.  Because we can go through life not having God, not understanding God, and be oblivious to his love, his truth, and the life of enrichment we could be experiencing through an intimate relationship with Him.  I am a bride of Christ.  I live a holy life covered by the mantle of our Holy Blessed Virgin Mother Mary.  The mother of God, and the mother of us all.  Until we come to this conclusion, we wander, and we miss the gifts Christ so anxiously wants to share with us.  This poetry is his gift to me and today I am sharing his gift with you, why?  Because you may be still searching for Him, and I want you to be inspired to go out on an adventure and seek Him.  No two stories are identical, but to encourage you further, if joy sings through every adventure you take, you can be sure, all of it is the Lord!  He knows everything.  And not only that, who better to be your tourguide guiding your soul properly toward truth than Him.  I wish you a powerful and prayerful amazing journey!      

Today we celebrate the feast day of Saint Bridget of Sweden.  Servant of God.  How can we best live out this day in honor of the life God has provided for us?  We as Catholic's attend daily mass.  We receive the body blood soul and divinity of our Lord, Jesus Christ.  We learn from listening to the gospel, and then we go out into the world proclaiming the word of Jesus!  By proclaiming the word, we live not of this world, we live in Christ Jesus.  We follow in his footsteps, his truths, and in the greatest mystery of all, in faith, we trust everything to Christ.  Fear has no place in this process, fear is not of the holy one.  We as servants of Christ, grow through his great grace upon which we receive instruction on how to live.  As followers of Christ we enter into the realm of truth, the realm of holiness, that transforms our very souls for the duration of our eternal journey.  Christ is alive.  Christ will never die, and neither will we.  We as his children will go on to live forever.  And the preparation for that eternal pilgrimage begins today and it is definitely built upon through prayer, through service, and utmost trust in our Lord.  The moment we stop trusting fully in the Lord, Satan has us in the palm of his hand.  Reject him.  Reject all of his negativity, only to set ones mind and heart, and spirit, back.  With Christ we propel forward in a fashion created and specifically and personally detailed to each of God's children.  A gift is waiting for every Catholic to participate in the Lords plans.  We only need to respond yes Lord, I come to do your most perfect will.  Renouncing the gift of free will given to us, brings us closer to God and in that intimate relationship it is there we are given the gift to see perfectly and clearly Gods plans for our lives.  Once we trust, once we fully trust in this process, the veil is lifted and the truthful process begins.  And our ministry in Christ is revealed.  And how beautiful it is to be in the great company of our Lord, serving Him in this most important capacity.  We can serve him fully in having a devout life.  For 36 years I have been walking with Christ on my own road to Emmaus.  He has allowed me to see so much.  Especially within my own minds eye, I could see his face, see his angels, see our holy mother Mary.  There were and are exquisite visions that come to me when my eyes are closed and pictures of them enter into my mind and these are his precious gifts given to me.  I don't question them, I accept them for what they are.  I am living within the company of all the angels, all the saints, and even in Mary's and her sons company I am most privileged.  What Jesus wants, I want! And may his most perfect will continue to be done in me and in you.  These gifts are available for all of Gods children, we were called to become saints.  To live in Christ, to live in Mary, to live right here and now, and share what he has done, is miraculous, holy, divine.  I am so deeply honored to be growing each and every day in his presence, in his love for me to become his daughter of the light, his daughter of the truth, nothing will ever be more meaningful in my lifetime.  I think Christ is asking this of you.  Are you ready to experience his deep love, and his transforming guidance that will bring you too, to that fruitful place of charity in your lifetime, worthy of sharing, worthy of participating in, worthy of living as a true child of Jesus Christ.  Not an inkling of doubt can exist in your thoughts, you have to be true to yourself and true to your God in order to experience his presence and most abundant graces.  There is no wiggle room here, only the sincerity of your heart being outpoured into Jesus's heart bringing you to the next level of growth in your spiritual walk with Him.  We can truly advance in this life and into the next as "Children of God"... Why do so many of us procrastinate?  Why do so many of us live in fear?  When it is all so simple, and we make it complicated.  To deny our free will is a huge sacrifice that alot of people arent ready to give back to God. But they dont realize what they are renouncing, becomes an even better more powerful gift that God is placing inside of them while taking away that free will offering.  We are in essence offering it up for all souls, so that all souls can get to heaven. Jesus wants all his children to be forever with Him in eternity.  This is the first step kicking off that process, and giving us the ablility to work freely in Christ and in his mission for the church.  I am thrilled to be sharing this great news with all of you, because it needs to be shared, and recognized in order for it to be propelled through the stagnancy that has entered into the hearts of all men and women.  An awakening, a shakening up if you will, must take place in this fashion, because we do not see the full picture of our purpose driven life.  It has to be brought out of us, and when we come to Christ in our humility this stagnancy molded within us, is lifted, drawing our complete attention toward Christ.  And that is a good starting point for all of us.  When our attention is drawn to Him, there is nothing he cannot do through his children.  He wants to bestow upon us all the greatest of all gifts.  The eternal gifts that will go on forever.  We have future generations coming after us who will be searching very deeply for Christ.  And we are the remenant that they will be looking for, and what we do as that remenant, will become the future blessing for them to build upon.  Our every contribution to the Catholic faith relies totally on us.  Those who are living right now.  Let us awaken from our slumber!  Let us trust fully in this great and awesome mystery called faith.  And never ever waiver from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

Today I want to wish my daughter in law a Blessing of Great Grace in celebration of her birthday.. Gods grace it is available for everyone desiring a life in Jesus!  What exacatly does this mean?  A whole lot!  It means when one chooses to live in Christ, a New Life begins inside of them.  They no longer live, because Christ is living in them.  New Life can be an ongoing transformation removing what no longer needs to be in me or in you because God has entered into the heart, mind, soul that desires to have Christ living in them.  When we go to mass and we receive the holy eucharist, we receive Jesus, and when we receive him, we know as Catholics we must be first in a state of grace, without any stain of mortal sin. Christ can live in us and transform us into his likeness and his image, but we have to want it.  What exactly do I mean when I say this, Christ wants us as his children to be one in our heavenly father?  It means we follow the disciplines of the ten commandments, and experience a great conversion through our desire to say yes, as our holy mother Mary gave her fiat, so must we.  So must we in order to receive the gift of great grace being bestowed upon us through the gift of the Holy Spirit.  Truths.  Truths, that will enhance your journey as you pilgrimage toward eternal life.  For now life as we know it on earth is very trying, uncomfortable, uncertain, but life chosen in Christ Jesus, is fufilling, purposeful, meaningful, fruitful. And if we are all honest with eachother, trying to walk in the exact shoes of Saint Peter the first Pope, I can honestly tell you, it's a moderate challenge.  Are you up for it?  Challenging ones heart, mind, body, soul to change.  To live a new life with a new set of rules that pertain to the salvation of ones soul.  Its alot to grasp.  But it can be done.  And why wouldn't it be done, when we were all born for this momentous gift called life, but to fufill it in Christ, one can measure joy seeing ones progress in real time that will go on indefinitely.  "We were made in our Mothers Womb", according to Father O' Doherty, and "We were meant to life forever".  Every soul will go on to live forever.  No one dies in Gods book of life!  No one...  Truths.  Truths to live for, why is that?  Because you were given life to pursue the truth.  How far have you pursued the truth?  If we are honest we can digest that question for a while before responding.  When we enter a relationship we seek what is best for the other person.  When we seek to enter into Christ, we seek to become our best self.  Christ takes away old layers of self that no longer need to be and replaces them with new layers of self that will benefit the new person Christ is weaving through me.  I love that!  Christ has the power to do a miraculous work in you, something you can never do on your own, and when we step aside, and stand out of his way, great things begin to happen.  Are you ready to experience his presence working with you and through you on a daily basis?  You have to seek and want his love first, in order to experience agape love!  The highest form of love, becomes the highest form of grace, living inside of you!  This is available to everyone.  They can choose agape love and receive grace upon grace, healing upon healing, joy upon joy, when their free will is offered freely back to God.  If you are searching for the truth, I have just given it to you.  If you are searching for love, there is no greater love, only the love of God, because he created us all out of his love, his image, his likeness.  Therein lies all the answers to all the question.  Christ is the answer every single time.  Yes.  It is that simple.  We only make it complicated.  And sometimes we go on wasting the very precous life we were all given.  And for what?  To realize we have the greatest regret?  We dont need to walk down that path of sorrow.  We need to walk the path of light and be that light for everyone we encounter.    

This episode "Meet Every Soul That Desires To Be On A Journey With God"  is dedicated to my Mother and Father whom I had recently had a funeral mass, honor guard, and garden internment for, on June 16, 2026.  I am so ever thankful to my spouse undivided attention every step of the way, and to Father Patrick Francis O' Doherty, for the gift of offering the huge blessing of having a very holy mass at Queen of Peace Catholic Church.  I am especially thankful to all of his staff who were amazing during this process.  My church family who went out of their way to attend and be supportive, all of you are forever etched in my memory of this day.  It was your prayers and love that held me up when I couldn't stand.  We are one in Jesus, we are one in Mary.  Our holy mother is holding us, the exact same way she held onto her baby son, in her loving hands we are shielded, we are protected, we are given the great gift of her love supported by her intercession, bringing every single prayer, directly to her Son.  

When I talk about Meeting Every Soul That Desires To Be On A Journey With God, I mean it.  We are all here purposely through God for this exact moment.  Be in it!!!  Dont run away from it, but run toward it.  Jesus wants to meet you there.  Allow him that honor through the people he has placed before you.  He has his reasons in time and in history, we just need to be open to the gift he wants for us to receive.  Receive him in the Confessional, receive him in the Holy Eucharist, receive him in The Mass, receive him in Your Church Family, receive him right now, exactly where you are.  

I think, I belive, that "His Heart Needs To Become Our Heart".  For the Sacred Heart of Jesus holds the lock and key to our souls salvation.  And if all of this is true, we must be open to it.  We must not miss it!  But find it and tap into it, and drink from the well of truth.   

When we are of all one heart, one mind, one God, and one truth, one understanding, this world will be set aflame in God's eternal love for all eternity!  

Consider every grace that you have been given, as a deliberate gift from our Lord.  You cannot do anything whatsoever without Him.  God is living and breathing deep within you, and yet you cant see Him, but He is there.  He guides his children, and blesses them every step of the way.  He opens doors that could have remained locked for eternity.  God does an amazing work in all of his people.  We owe Him a great amount of gratitude.  No one on the planet should be frowning, because God is in their midst.  We can talk with God, we can break through our own barriers in life that have set us back instead of propelling us forward.  We are a unique creation living in God twenty four seven.  How is that sitting right now deep within your spirit?  Do you agree?  Or are you still trying to figure out what has already been revealed?  You are sons and daughters of Christ Jesus.  You were meant for this time.  And your true purpose in Christ is leading you toward him, in a deep and profund way.  For so many have lost their way.  So many have not protected themselves from the attack of the evil enemy himself.  We must always be on our guard.  For the moment we let our guard down, evil enters into the soul.  How do we protect it?  We remain in Jesus, we attend the holy mass, we receive the holy sacraments, and frequently visit the priest to not only examine our consciences but to receive reconcilation of all past sins.  This washing away of the dirt that has made us unclean is necessary as a Christian to mature spirtitually and to live a life worthy of Christ and his teachings.  We should be aware very aware of the gift of life.  It just didnt happen because of any reason we may think however, truth is it happened because it was the will of God.  We have to return to the basics.  The ten commandments were written to save ourselves from final damnation.  When we remain true to our God, to ourself and to others we are living out our best life for Christ.  Anything else is unacceptable.  We must learn to be perfect as our heavenly Father is perfect.  In other words we uphold the bar of great worth in the eyes of God, because he is worthy of that gift from us in return.  We cannot take our eyes off of God, because when we do we fall.  We fall into sin.  And sin sets us back from the beautiful plans God wants to bestow upon all of his children.  To be holy, to be blameless, to be loving in his sight, is our job.  How are you doing with that today?  When we take every precautionary measure there is out there to protect our soul, we are living in perfect union with Jesus Christ.  It is very difficult to remain perfect every day but our aim should be to do so no matter what the outcome.  If God sees our efforts, he will honor our good intentions when bad things happen to us and others.  We must keep our honesty always in check.  Because our honesty will save us from all that is evil.  Protect the mind, protect the eyes, protect the tongue, do not use any of the above to curse, but only to bless.  We hold a higher accountability than most.  Because we are in Christ, we belong to the King, and we are his most prized possessions.  I cannot emphasize enough the importance of protecting the soul, the conscience, stand true to your post, and never ever lower the bar of expectation because Christ is watching you even as you read this, he sees you, and expects great things from you.  Do not disappoint him, but do everything in your power to show him who you really are.  A soldier in Christ on earth and for all eternity, a soldier fighting in the great battle for the soul, that if not cautious, can lose it through the slippery path of the evil one.  Stay the course with Jesus, and Mary the mother of God, call their names, pray daily for the conversion of all souls.  They will hear you, they will protect you.  Prayers are much more effective, much more powerful than any action we can ever do as Christians.  Prayers move mountains.  Prayers convert souls to Christ Jesus.  Prayer overturns all evil in an instant. Trust in the power of God your deepest intentions, and wait upon the Lord.  His goodness will be revealed in his most perfect timing.
