The Baptism of the Lord

Dear Family of Mary!

Today Jesus begins in a sense his public ministry. He was baptized by John before a crowd of people, and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him. From then on, Jesus became a beacon of hope and light for all who encountered Him. He remains that beacon for us today. He is our only way.

Our Lady tells us as much in this message:

August 25, 2016

"Dear children!

Today I desire to share Heavenly joy with you.

You, little children,

open the door of your heart

so that hope, peace and love,

which only God gives,

may grow in your heart.

Little children,

you are too bound to the earth and earthly things,

that is why,

Satan is rolling you

like the wind rolls the waves of the sea.

Therefore, may the chain of your life

be prayer with the heart

and Adoration of my Son Jesus.

Give over your future to Him

so that, in Him, you may be joy

and an example with your lives to others.

Thank you for having responded to my call."

What could Our Lady mean by "the chain of your life"? One thought is that of a boat, which is trying to dock in a safe harbor. If the boat is not chained to the moorings in the harbor, it will be buffeted and driven out to sea. But the boat that is safely moored to a dock by a chain, will remain in peace by the shore. It is too true that the world is undergoing a terrible storm of sin that is destroying lives. If the boat of our lives is not moored to the safety of Jesus, it will be blown to sea and lost in the chaos.

Prayer with the heart and Adoration of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament can safely moor us to the safety of God's love, hope, peace and love! There we are sheltered from every storm. There we are safe and at peace.

May 2024 be a year of Heavenly Joy, that comes from Our Lady's heart to us!!

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

Quotes from 'The Glories of Mary':

‘I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head.’

(Gen. 3:15)

“Since the devil is the head of original sin, this head it was that Mary crushed: for sin never had any entry into the soul of this Blessed Virgin, which was consequently free from all stain.”

Saint Augustine

PSALM 71 SPEAKS TO MY HEART

Forsake Me Not When My Strength Is Spent

In you, O Lord, do I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame!
In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;
incline your ear to me, and save me!

Be to me a rock of refuge,
to which I may continually come;
you have given the command to save me,
for you are my rock and my fortress.

Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,
from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.
For you, O Lord, are my hope,
my trust, O Lord, from my youth.
Upon you I have leaned from before my birth;
you are he who took me from my mother's womb.
My praise is continually of you.

I have been as a portent to many,
but you are my strong refuge.
My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all the day.
Do not cast me off in the time of old age;
forsake me not when my strength is spent.

For my enemies speak concerning me;
those who watch for my life consult together
and say, “God has forsaken him;
pursue and seize him,
for there is none to deliver him.”

O God, be not far from me;
O my God, make haste to help me!
May my accusers be put to shame and consumed;
with scorn and disgrace may they be covered
who seek my hurt.

But I will hope continually
and will praise you yet more and more.
My mouth will tell of your righteous acts,
of your deeds of salvation all the day,
for their number is past my knowledge.

With the mighty deeds of the Lord God I will come;
I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.

O God, from my youth you have taught me,
and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.

So even to old age and gray hairs,
O God, do not forsake me,
until I proclaim your might to another generation,
your power to all those to come.
Your righteousness, O God,
reaches the high heavens.
You who have done great things,
O God, who is like you?

You who have made me see many troubles and calamities
will revive me again;
from the depths of the earth
you will bring me up again.
You will increase my greatness
and comfort me again.

I will also praise you with the harp
for your faithfulness, O my God;
I will sing praises to you with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.
My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed.

And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long,
for they have been put to shame and disappointed
who sought to do me hurt.
