Just Love Her
Just Love Her :
She feels empty
She is afraid and
feels so alone.
she see's people lives
going forward
all around her and
she doesn't want
to impose herself
on anyone.
She remains silent.
her tears of sadness
is like nothing she
had ever imagined.
She feels there is
nobody who will
understand her or
embrace her.
Her tears keep falling
She knows she has
to go to work and
she is struggling just
to get there.
A co-worker can see
she is down and not
herself.
She smiled gently at
the broken girl with
drooped shoulders.
And she asked if she
was having a bad day ?
The broken girl looked
up to her and nodded
her head 'yes.
The co-worker decided
it would be best to
speak with her during
their lunch hour.
She approached the
broken girl and asked
if she would like to
go to lunch and the girl
agreed to go.
They both decided
on a restaurant to
eat at
and went through the
drive -thru.
I noticed you've
been a little down
and not yourself lately?
Is there something wrong?
The broken girl looked
up to her co-worker
with big blue eyes of
sadness , and tears
began to flow down
her cheeks.
"I just found out I'm
pregnant and I am scared !"
The co-worker looked at her
with so much compassion.
She embraced her and
said," You are not alone dear
and I am here for you."
Have you found a doctor
yet ?
Yes, and I am two months
pregnant .
What about your boyfriend ?
Does he know ?
The broken girl answered,
"Yes , and he's scared as
well. "
The co-worker said, "You
must focus on yourself
right now and the well
being of your baby.
When is your next
doctor's appointment ,
I would like to come ?
The broken girl gave
her the appointment date
and kindly said , "You
don't have to be with me ,"
with tears still flowing
down her face."
The co-worker replied ,"I
want to be with you, and
I'm going with you on
your next appointment.
I will be with you
through it all ."
The broken girl broke
down and said , "How
can I ever thank you , "
smiling up to her
co-worker.
"Your smile already did ."
To my reader
Just Love Her+++

St. Matthew Feast Day +++ "I Am Sending You Out Like Sheep Among Wolves"
September 21 St. is "The Feast Day of St. Matthew." He was the Chief among
the tax collector. His commitment to follow Christ demonstrates that God
has the power to transform the most depraved sinner into a saint
for his glory. On Sept. 21, we celebrate the feast of this sinner-turned
saint, Saint Matthew the Apostle. (Matthew of Galilee)
Matthew presented evidence reconciling the Old
Testament prophecies with the Life of Jesus
demonstrating that Jesus was the Messiah. The
main message of the Gospel of Matthew is that
Jesus is the Messiah that the Jews had long
waited.
{ St. Matthew died as a Martyr of the Church.
St. Matthew the Evangelist, author of the
Gospel of Matthew . According to tradition,
the saint was killed on the orders of the
king of Ethiopia while celebrating
Mass at the altar. }
_________________________________________
Matthew Ch. 10 V 1 :
Then he summoned his twelve disciples
and gave them authority to expel unclean
spirits and to cure sickness and disease of
every kind.
Matthew Ch. 10 V 5-23
Jesus sent these men on a mission as the
Twelve, after giving them the following
instructions:
"Do not visit pagan territory and do not
enter a Samaritan town. Go instead after
the lost sheep of the house of Israel. As
you go , make this announcement : 'The
reign of God is at hand !" Cure the sick, raise
the dead, heal the leprous, expel demons.
The gift you have received, give as a gift.
Provide yourselves with neither gold nor
silver nor copper in your belts; no traveling
bag , no change of shirt, no sandals, no
walking staff. The workman, after all , is
worth his keep.
Look for a worthy person in every
town or village you come to and stay with
him until you leave. As you enter his
home bless it. If the home is deserving
your blessing will descend on it. If it is not,
your blessing will return to you. If anyone
does not receive you or listen to what you
have to say, leave that house or town, and
once outside it shake its dust from your feet.
I assure you, it will go easier for the
region of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day
of judgment than it will for that town.
What I am doing is sending you out
like sheep among wolves. You must be clever
as snakes and innocent as doves. Be on
your guard with respect to others. They will
hale you into court. They will flog you in
their synagogues. You will be brought
to trial before rulers and kings, to give witness
before them and before the Gentiles on my
account. When they hand you over, do
not worry about what you will say or how
you will say it. When the hour comes,
you yourselves will not be the speakers, the Spirit
of your Father will be speaking in you.
Brother will hand over brother to
death, and the Father his child; children will
turn against parents and have them put to
death. You will be hated by all on account
of me. But whoever holds out till the end
will escape death. When they persecute
you in one town, flee to the next. I solemnly
assure you, you will not have covered the
towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
Matthew Ch. 10 V 26-42
Do not let them intimidate you. Nothing is
concealed that will not become known.
What I tell you in darkness, speak in the
light. What you hear in private , proclaim from
the housetops.
"Do not fear those who derive the
body of life but cannot destory the soul.
Rather fear him who can destroy both body
and soul in Gehenna. Are not two sparrows
sold for next to nothing ? Yet not a
single sparrow falls to the ground without
your Father's consent. As for you, every
hair of your head has been counted; so
do not be afraid of anything. You are worth
more than an entire flock of sparrows.
Whoever acknowledges me before men
I will acknowledge before my Father in
heaven. Whoever disowns me before
men I will disown before my Father in\
heaven.
"Do not suppose that my mission on
earth is to spread peace. My mission is to
spread , not peace, but division. I have
come to set a man at odds with his father,
a daughter with her mother, a daughter-
in-law with her mother-in-law; in
short, to make a man's enemies those
of his own household. Whoever loves
father or mother, son or daughter, more than
me is not worthy of me. he who will
not take up his cross and come after me
is not worthy of me. He who seeks only
himself brings himself to ruin, where as he
who brings himself to naught for me discovers
who he is.
"he who welcomes you welcomes me,
and he who welcomes me welcomes him
who sent me. He who welcomes a prophet
because he bears the name of prophet
receives a prophet's reward; he who welcomes
a holy man because he is known to holy
receives a holy man's reward.
And I promise you that whoever gives
a cup of cold water to one of these lowly
ones because he is a disciple will not
want for his reward.

Doctrine of The Cross / Jesus Transfigured
Doctrine of the Cross : Matthew Ch. 16 V 24-28
Jesus then said to his disciples: "If a man wishes
to come after me, he must deny his very self, take
up his cross, and begin to follow in my
footsteps. Whoever would save his life
will lose it, but whoever loses his life for
my sake will find it. What profit would
a man show if he were to gain the whole
world and destroy himself in the process?
What can a man offer in exchange for his
very self ? The Son of Man will come
with his Father's glory accompanied by his
angels. When he does, he will repay each
man according to his conduct. I assure
you , among those standing here there are
some who will not experience death before
they see the Son of Man come in his
Kingship.
Jesus Transfigured : Matthew Ch. 17 1-8
Six days later Jesus
took Peter, James, and his brother John and
led them up on a high mountain by themselves.
He was transfigured before their
eyes. His face became as dazzling as the
sun, his clothes as radiant as light.
suddenly Moses and Elijah appeared to
them conversing with him. Then Peter said to
Jesus, "Lord how good that we are here !
With your permission I will erect three booths (tents)
here, one for you, one for Moses , and one
for Elijah ." He was still speaking when
suddenly a bright cloud overshadowed them.
Out of the cloud came a voice which said,
"This is my beloved Son on whom my favor
rests. "Listen to Him." When they heard
this the disciples fell forward on the ground,
overcome with fear. Jesus came toward
them and laying his hand on them, said,
"Get up ! so not be afraid." When they
looked up they did not see anyone but Jesus.

The Narrow Door
Luke Ch. 13 Verses 22-30
The Narrow Door : He went through cities
and towns teaching-- all the while making
his way toward Jerusalem. Someone asked
him. "Lord, are they few in number who
are to be saved ?" He replied: "Try to
come in through the narrow door. Many
I tell you , will try to enter and be unable.
When once the master of the house has
risen to lock the door and you stand outside
knocking and saying, "Sir , open for us, ' he
will say in reply, "I do not know where you
come from." Then you will begin to say,
"We ate and drank in your company. You
taught in our streets." But he will answer ,
"I tell you, I do not know where you come
from. Away from me, you evildoers !"
"There will be wailing and grinding
of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob,
and all the prophets safe in the Kingdom
of God, and you yourselves rejected. People
will come from the east and the west,
from the north and the south, and will take
their place at the feast in the kingdom of
God. Some who are last will be first
and some who are first will be last."

Clinging To Christ
Oh ' My Lord , Jesus !
If I only would have
or should have done
things this way !
These are the words I keep
holding on to !
I try hard to go forward
but something keeps pulling
me backwards.
Things keep
reminding me of my past
that brings me down.
I keep telling myself
"If only I would have
or should have."
I try to stay positive but
guilt, shame, and loneliness
arises !
__________________________________
"Cling to me my child."
You will not find me in
the past . I Am your
Creator and I Am always
in the Present"
I know the Crosses you are carrying
are heavy and sometimes seems
unbearable .
It is I who will help you carry
your Cross+++
May you look at me as I carried
My Cross along the dirt fields and
hillsides of Calvary.
As you are carrying your Cross
I will lighten your heavy load
each and every time you think
of me in my loneliness. I was
spat on , whipped, called
profane names and my blood
was poured out for All of
mankind.
My Holy Cross I Carried for You !
________________________________
Oh' Jesus ! I will look at you every time
whenever I am down
and feel low ! When I keep
going in reverse ; remind me you are
there ! When I try to undo something that
simply cannot be undone , I will look up
and be reminded of you carrying
your Cross+++
For you fell three times and even had
help picking up your Cross by Simon.
You said you will help me carry
my Cross +++
I will place my full Trust in you
my Lord !
I know you are the
Only Way , Truth, and Life !
I will cling to you Christ
like never before !
It is you that is wiping my
face clean and showering me
with Your Breath of Holiness +++

See The Beauty Within My People ' Says the Lord !
"See the Beauty within My People ' says the Lord"
(His mercy extends to those who fear Him ; Luke Ch. 1 Verses 46-55 :
Blessed Mary's Magnificat.)
God's Holy Word will remain always+++
The Angel Gabriel told Mary during
the Annunciation "God will cast a shadow over you."
The Prophet Isaiah spoke "Behold , he wrote, "a virgin
shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name
Immanuel ." Isaiah Ch. 7 Verse 14 .
Tears of Joy, Faith, Love, and even fear was within
the Mother of Our Lord.
She not only had to announce this message to her
parents , but to Joseph as well.
"Because Joseph to whom she was engaged , was
a righteous man and did not want to disgrace her
publicly, so he decided to break the engagement
quietly.
But after he had
considered this , an Angel of the Lord appeared to him in
a dream and said, "Joseph son of David , do not fear to
take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her
is from the Holy Spirit." Matthew Ch. 1 Verse 20
Mary took Joseph by the hand and said "Trust in
The Lord."
The "Mystery" of Christ love is through his
Mother's womb.
With Joseph facing all obstacles , by passing the
thoughts of man and "Trusting in God ; His Holy
Words." Joseph held the infant Jesus hand , knowing
he would be taking care of Mary and Jesus , in facing
whatever may come.
