I Won't Let You Go

 

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

 

He Who Is Mighty

Sooner Count the Stars

spirit of God

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.
