My
People,
Good
Morning! What a wonderful world we live in and how blessed are we. The Peace of
Jesus be yours today and every day and the love of Mama Mary lighten your heart.
To
me this is what love feels like, it’s kind of like my favourite Bryan Adam’s song,
Everything I do. I can’t help it, I just
love this song from the day I first heard it. These are the two verses I am
going to quote. Maybe you will like it too.
Look into your
heart, you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am, take my life
I would give it all, I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it, there's nothin' I want more
You know it's true
Everything I do, I do it for you
Oh yeah
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am, take my life
I would give it all, I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it, there's nothin' I want more
You know it's true
Everything I do, I do it for you
Oh yeah
This
is what it feels like in my heart. This is all the love I feel and more. I
could sing along with Bryan Adams to Everything I do, but you got to believe me
when I say, you got to-know I would do (anything & everything) for you. Oh
yeah…………….
On
a Friday, there was a part of the collection that was being made for a friend’s
wedding.
I
was standing there, as they were filling the card, and one of my friends
wanted me to sign, and the lady retorted back it’s only for those
who paid the money. He still insisted that I sign and she repeated the same
thing. It hurt badly. I replied with a no both the times. I had the money in my
hand and I was waiting. At that moment, I was told by the holy-spirit
to pay the money and so I did. I did not sign the card. It made no sense.
Later
in the evening, the Holy-Spirit blessed (Daniel & Emmanuel).
The
next day, this lady, my friend, asked me if I was leaving for the day and I
said yes. The other friend of mine who was aware of everything was shocked and asked me are you leaving with her? I said, yes.
I
told her what my brother (cousin) always tell me, He says multiply your
friends.
Sirach
6:5 states-Pleasant speech gains more friends for itself, and a sweet-speaking
tongue will multiply pleasant exchanges.
I
could have given her a piece of my mind. But I would have lost a friend.
See,
I was told to get off my seat to pay the money, God knew fully well, what would
happen next, but I had to be tested, and be obedient to God.
And
maybe she was hurt by somebody too. So If I hurt her back, the hurt would just
travel in circles. So maybe by not responding the way she thought I should,
maybe this broke the chain reaction. I hope it did. I hope it eased her pain.
We
might praise God with our mouths, but it may be that our hearts are far from
Him. God
knows our every heartbeat. Often we
don’t even know what is in our own hearts.
“the
heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately corrupt”—Jeremiah cried
out: “Who can understand it?” But God
immediately replied: “I, the Lord, search the mind and try the heart” Jeremiah 17:9-10.
We
are not stuck forever with the limitations and defects of our hearts, if we
confidently entrust them to Him Who Is Greater Than Our Hearts. We can rest in His
providence and mercy.
Let
us pray for a pure heart, with which we can see God Matthew 5:8
He
can make all things new within us, preserving our hearts in His grace. The human heart may be impossible to
understand fully, but it is within our free will to offer it to God for healing
and enlightenment. And we can consecrate our broken little hearts to the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary, that ours may rest in theirs, taking comfort and
strength as we are invited to share in the continuous exchange of love between
the King and Queen of Heaven. For love covers a multitude of sins and restores
our hearts to their long-lost likeness to God.
Today,
the 10th of December, 2013 as I knelt in the Church to pray I was told by the
Holy Spirit, to leave that very moment, and to go sit right in the front row. I
was attending the healing and thanksgiving mass celebrated by Fr. Ashlyn in the
Church Annexe. I got there and saw a couple of ladies praying together, they
invited me to pray and I joined them in prayers.
When
I got home, I felt no different, but after dinner, I realized there is
something that has changed, though I don’t know what, but I know and trust the
Spirit of God, will let me know.
God
reveals Himself in the Scriptures-One comes
from the parable of the unforgiving servant in Matthew 18, in which the master,
having forgiven his servant a huge debt and then discovered that this same
servant refused to forgive a fellow servant a tiny debt, “handed him over to
the torturers.” Jesus goes on to say that His Father will do exactly the same
thing to us if we do not forgive from the heart. In the prodigal son, the father who forgave his son without even asking for an
account of his wrongs—not even giving him a chance to confess but immediately
lavishing love and abundant gifts upon him.
So,
I think, God Who will hand someone over to the torturers in one case and
overflow with mercy and love in another, are both true revelations of who God
is and what He does.
The
way God dealt with them depended upon what was in their hearts. The
evil-hearted man was punished and the one with the repentant heart was warmly
received.
So,
the nature of our encounter with God will largely depend upon the condition of
our hearts. Gods ways and thoughts are not ours.
God
is love, He wants to pour out his mercy upon us. He’s just looking for hearts
that are turned towards Him and are thus ready to do His will.
Perhaps
it is time to take a look within our hearts and see what we find. God loves us
but He hates evil, so He will be unrelenting in going after any evil that is
concealed within the hearts of those whom He loves. Let us be careful about
what we believe and how we live.
Together, Forever.
when we're together
I know this loves
forever,From tonight until the end of time.
You will always be in my
heart,
And from this day on we
cannot be kept apart.I need you to be here with me,
I wish for all it was plain to see.
I offer all that I
have to give,
for all my of days that I will live,
I could search the world
over,for all my of days that I will live,
and this I know is true,
I would never ever find what I found with you.
With all my Love,
For Love Prevails!AnitA.
I
Love you from the depths of the ocean.
I
Love you from the extremities of the earth.I Love you from the above and beyond of the universe.
I Love you from time infinite-from eternity to eternity.
I Love you from the heart of God – from the God of The Alpha and The Omega.
I will always, always and always Love you!
