Be Attentive to Prayer
______________________________________
Colossians Ch. 4 Verses 2-6 Pray perseveringly, be
attentive to prayer, and pray in a spirit of thanksgiving.
Pray for us, too, that God may provide us with an
opening to proclaim the mystery of Christ, for
which i am a prisoner. Pray that I may speak
it clearly, as I must. Be prudent in dealing
with outsiders, make the most of every
opportunity. Let your speech be always
gracious and in good taste, and strive to
respond properly to all who address you.

Before Investigating find no fault
____________________________________
Sirach Ch. 11 Verses 7-17
Before investigating , find no fault:
examine first, then criticize.
Before hearing , answer not,
and interrupt no one in the middle
of his speech.
Dispute not about what is not your concern;
in the strife of the arrogant take no part.
My son, why increase your cares.
since he who is avid (greedy) for wealth
will not be blameless ?
Even if you will never overtake
it; however you seek it , you will not
find it.
One may toil and struggle and drive,
and fall short all the more.\
Another goes his way a weakling and a failure,
with little strength and great misery-
Yet the eyes of the Lord look favorably upon
him.
he raises him free of he vile dust.
Lifts up his head and exalts him
to the amazement of the many.
Good and evil, life and death,
poverty and riches , are from the Lord.
Wisdom and understanding and knowledge
of affairs , love and virtuous paths are from
the Lord.
Error and darkness were formed with sinners
from their birth,
and evil grows old with evildoers.
The Lord's gift remains with the just;
his favor brings continued success.

Where your treasure is , there your heart is also
Matthew Ch:6 Verses 21-24 : Remember , where your treasure is,
there your heart is also. The eye is the body's lamp. If your
eyes are good, your body will be filled with light; if your
eyes are bad, your body will be in darkness. And if your
light is darkness, how deep will the darkness be !
No man can serve two masters. He will either hate
one and love the other or be attentive to one and
despise the other.

Where I Am going you cannot come
_________________________________________
John Ch: 8 Verses 21-30 Again he said to them:
"I am going away. You will look for me
but you will die in your sins.
Where I am going you cannot come."
At this some of the Jews began to ask,
"Does he mean he will kill himself when
he claims, "Where I am going you cannot
come.?" He went on:
"You belong to what is below;
I belong to what is above.
You belong to this world-
a world which cannot hold me.
That is why I said you would die in
your sins.
You will surely die in your sins
unless you come to believe that I AM."
"Who are you then.?" they asked him.
Jesus answered:
What I have been telling you from the
beginning.
I could say much about you in condemnation.
but no, I only tell the world
what I have heard from him,
the truthful One who sent me."
They did not grasp that he was speaking
to them of the Father. Jesus continued:
"When you lift up the Son of Man.
you will come to realize that I Am
and that I do nothing by myself.
I say only what the Father has taught me.
The One who sent me is with me.
He has not deserted me
since I always do what pleases him."
Because he spoke this way, many came to
believe in him.
Condemnation : The expression of very strong disapproval

The Spirit of The Lord
Isaiah Ch. 11 Verses 2-3 As it is written: "The Spirit of the Lord
shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
the spirit of counsel and might , the Spirit of knowledge
and of the fear of the Lord, and he will delight in the
fear of the Lord."

Reasons why Jesus sent the Holy spirit
to the disciples after his ascension . He would empower the disciples
to be able to speak with courage / confidence / authority.
Ascension means : The Ascension of Jesus is Christian teaching
that Christ physically departed from Earth by rising into Heaven,
in the presence of eleven of his apostles. According to the
New Testament narrative, the Ascension occurred forty days
after the resurrection.

An Awesome momentary view
Dear ones,
I am giving you an awesome given dream from our Lord written
in my journal on Dec. 13, 1996. I think it is fitting for this
"Corpus Christi Feast Day " ; this is what I wrote:
I had a dream that I was in my church during Mass.
I remember going in line for communion and I received
the Holy Eucharist (communion) on my hand ; from a
Eucharistic Minister. She was my daughter's Sunday school
teacher. After I received the host I ate it . But as I was walking
back to my pew , blood began to formed on my hand. I showed my husband
and my dream ended.
This dream was given to my priest.
_________________________________________________
note: The blood that I momentarily was allowed to view on the palm of my hand;
was not the Eucharist itself. In my given dream I had already consumed the host .
But God wanted me to see his blood form on my hand as a given sign of his
realness in the Holy Eucharist ; His Body and His Blood. +++
The Holy Eucharist is a constant reminder of Our Oneness with Christ. During
"The Last Supper" ; the night before Our Lord's Crucifixion.
Christ asked for all people to receive him in "His Body and His Blood " in appearance
of Bread and Wine. The priest (Consecrate) the Eucharist at the altar changing the
Bread into Christ Body and Wine into Christ Blood (Transubstantiation).
*Consecrate: Make or declare (something, typically a church)
sacred; dedicate formally to a religious or divine purpose
* (In Christian belief) make (bread or wine) into the
body or blood of Christ . ( John Chapter 6 ) Christ instituted the Holy Eucharist at the
altar and he did not receive comments from anyone . He said "Remain in me and I will
remain in you. Many of his followers could not believe in what Our Lord had to say and
left him. He turned to his twelve disciples and asked if they to want to leave ? They said
"To whom shall we go ?" They remained with Christ except for Judas would soon betray him
and turn him in to be arrested.
*Eucharist: The Christian ceremony commemorating the Last Supper, in
which bread and wine are consecrated and consumed.
*Transubstantiation: Means the change of the whole substance of bread into
the substance of the Body of Christ and of the whole substance of
wine into the substance of his Blood. This change is
brought about in the Eucharistic prayer through the
efficacy of the Word of Christ and by the action of the Holy Spirit.
