Saturday, August 13, 2016: (St. Pontian & St. Hippolytus)

Jesus said: “My people, I am showing you a monastery where the monks live a monastic life of prayer and silence. Today’s Gospel calls on you to have the innocence and the humility of a child who is dependent on his or her parents. You are also My children, and you are dependent on Me for everything. I want My faithful to take time out for Me in silent contemplative prayer each day, to honor your Lord, and listen to My words of instruction. If you are quiet and listen to your heart, I will instruct you what I want you to do each day. You remember the words of My heavenly Father on Mt. Tabor: ‘This is My beloved Son, listen to Him.’ You can listen for My words in the readings and the Gospel. Even your guardian angel is guiding you what to do. I love all of My people, and I am calling all of you to know, love, and serve Me by helping your neighbors. Do everything out of love for Me, and you will be on the right path to heaven. Pray for your children, and help guide them to heaven, even after they leave your home.”

Jesus said: “My people, I want you to be aware of doing your corporal works of mercy. Whenever one of your friends or family are in the hospital, you need to make an attempt to visit them, and pray over them. In other times when your friends or relatives have a death in the family, you need to come to the funeral to pay your respects. Pray for the deceased with a Chaplet of Divine Mercy for his or her soul, and have a Mass offered as well. You need to comfort the family with your presence, and put your heart into your good deeds. You may even be called to pray for the prisoners in prison, or to comfort some elderly friends or relatives. By doing all of your corporal works of mercy, you are storing up treasure in heaven. You have also been active in your food shelf work to help feed the poor. You have demonstrated against abortion before Planned Parenthood abortion centers, and in Washington, D.C. on January 22. Life is so precious and you need to defend the unborn and to fight against euthanasia. I bless all of My faithful who are trying to save lives, and to save souls from the evil ones.”
