My People,
Hello! Love makes all things WONDERFUL!
I Hope and Pray for you A Heaven on Earth.
i, Thank You, God for Your Abundant Blessings in Pope Benedict XVI and Pope Francis. Thank You for the Wonderful Journey under the Guidance of Both of our POPES. Thank You for the Magnificent Years.
i, Thank You, Lord Jesus for the Life of Pope Francis. Thank You for His Heart that most reflected Your Compassion and Mercy in the most trying of times.
i, Thank You, Almighty God for our POPE LEO XIV. I pray Lord Jesus, watch and guard Him from all the evil in the world.
i, Thank You, Holy Trinitarian God, for Your unfailing Love and Your Faithfulness to Your PROMISES.
To GOD - Everybody matters, every heart-beat counts!
No matter who you are or where you come from, wealth-position-status (the things that matter in this world) they are a passing phase in life. And they matter not in the Heavenly Realm!
Love matters, it always does. But no matter what, maybe towards the end of life, you will have understood that love has always been the greatest Treasure all FREELY given. ALL from God with LOVE.
And if you have found LOVE, how Blessed you are. There is no wealth greater than love.
For GOD is LOVE - GOD is our WEALTH-our TREASURE!
This song truly needs no introduction-here is...
Love Will Keep us Alive - By Eagles.
1st: I was standingAll alone against the world outside
You were searching
For a place to hide
2nd: Lost and lonely
Now you've given me the will to survive
When we're hungry
Love will keep us alive
Don't you worry
Sometimes you've just gotta let it ride
The world is changing
Right before your eyes
CHORUS: (2times)
Now I've found you
There's no more emptiness inside
When we're hungry
Love will keep us alive
I would die for you
Climb the highest mountain
Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do
1st Paragraph: I was standing….......For a place to hide
2nd Paragraph: Lost and lonely…......Love will keep us alive
When we're hungry, Love will keep us alive. (2times)
In His Sacrificial Death, the greatest comfort to Jesus was His Mothers presence.
John 19:26-27 26 When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!” 27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple (John) took her to his own home.
We all like to feel comforted and in God we are comforted. For Jesus gave us His Beloved Mother in this journey of life.
Jesus' words, I am always with you even unto the end of time. Yes, Jesus spoke the words to His Apostles. And what a comfort to the heart it is. In and through our Priests, we always have Jesus.
The Apostles did run away leaving Jesus alone. They ran for fear of their lives. This is what i see from their perspective,
They saw Jesus turn plain water into a Heaven Made wine. And there could be no comparison to that wine.
They were there when Jesus calmed the storm, when Jesus walked on the water.
They saw Jesus multiply the Bread and Fish to feed 5000 and 4000 people.
They saw Lazarus raised to life on the 4th day.
Peter, James, and John were there at the Transfiguration. They heard the Fathers voice-saying this is my Beloved Son, listen to Him.
They witnessed miracles -the dead were raised to life, the blind could see, the deaf could hear, the leapers were cleansed, the demon possessed people were set free.
They heard Jesus-they knew Jeus, but some things they found hard to understand.
Two Thousand years back, the Apostles could not understand why Jesus had to be crucified and die. They saw Him bring the dead to life.
But we always need to remember, they were the chosen Apostles.
Two Thousand years later, knowing everything that we know now, and perhaps what was not so clear to the Apostles, is made clear to us in the teachings of the Bible and the teachings of the saints and we still fail to understand Jesus.
Yes, they ran for their lives. But the Gospels do not end there. It is only after Pentecost we hear the Works of the Spirit in the Lives of the Apostles.
Question: How often do we abandon Jesus?
True love is the giving of self completely holding nothing back. You GIVE your all.
The Trinitarian God -The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit do this in our lives each and every day.
Jesus IS the Holy Eucharist - His Presence in His Priests.
Love has the greatest capacity to transform the lives of people.
John 3:16 - For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
God, The Father, emptied Himself-in giving us His Only Begotten Son. He gave us His ALL.
Jesus is the Son of God-became man and lived in a total submission to His Father in Heaven. In obedience to His Father-HE laid down His LIFE for us. And in HIS Death, we have Eternal Life. It is love that had Jesus nailed to the Cross.
God did not withhold His Best. God freely gave us HIMSELF!
As human beings we love to control everything. Does it say anything of our love for God?
The Old Christians-ACTS 4- fully understood God's Sacrifice. They loved GOD, and they loved their neighbour's with the love of God.
When we are motivated by the love of God our love will be in service to our brothers and sisters. If we are not driven by the love of God, we will not be able to love our brothers and sisters.
Mark 12:29-31 29 Jesus answered, “The first is, ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one; 30 and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
Who is my neighbour?
Our immediate neighbours could be our own family members- (father, mother, brother, sister, cousins, grand-parents, uncles, aunties, nephews, nieces, husband-wife, children, friends and most importantly our Priests and Nuns.)
What is it that Jesus means with love your neighbour as yourself?
A neighbour is not just the person who has a home opposite you, or the person you meet outside. There are some who choose to be good with the outside world but at home, they create a living hell.
It is easier to love people who we are less familiar with. It is easier to do good to them, because they know very little about us, and they cannot tell our faults to our face.
And there is the ego problem, where one is not able to accept any advice from family members, because we think we are better than them.
To do good to our immediate family members is out of question because as the saying goes, 'familiarity breeds contempt'. And the reason you want them to remain punished, is because it would mean that they did you wrong. Helping them would stop the punishment.
As human beings, we like to keep ourselves safe-we don't deprive ourselves from what we know is necessary for us. As we take good care of our-selves, we don't do things that could harm us, which means we love ourselves. And this is what Jesus implies on, love your neighbour as yourself.
We must choose to love everybody. It Is not easy to love, but we are called to love those who make it so hard to love at all.
Don’t let anyone suffer-especially when you can help.
And truth be spoken, we are constantly-always failing. It's not that we cannot help. It is just that we want everything to and for ourselves.
Acts 4:32-37 (Reading - 29 April 2025)
32 Now the company of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things which he possessed was his own, but they had everything in common. 33 And with great power the apostles gave their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all. 34 There was not a needy person among them, for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of what was sold 35 and laid it at the apostles’ feet; and distribution was made to each as any had need. 36 Thus Joseph who was surnamed by the apostles Barnabas (which means, Son of encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus, 37 sold a field which belonged to him, and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
The reason, many will go to HELL, is not because they did not have the resources, but because they had and were unwilling to help.
Truth, is they failed to love. It is a failure-a disobedience to the Love Commandment.
Mortal sins are a way to Hell.
But many are going to HELL because of the failure (to OBEY) to love everybody. You cannot choose who you will love and hate. The message, the commandment is to love all.
Matthew 7:21, 24-27
21 “Not every one who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
(Doing the Will of the Father, is obeying the words of Jesus.)
24 “Every one then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the rock; 25 and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26 And every one who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house upon the sand; 27 and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell; and great was the fall of it.”
Jesus here mentions, ..."Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them...
The wedding at Cana, Mary tells the Servants,
“Do whatever he tells you.” John 2. (and they obey)
At the transfiguration, the Heavenly Father (Abba Father) says,
“This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” Matthew 17.
The only implication - the word - OBEY Jesus = LISTEN to Jesus.
A Priest is Jesus.
Note: This is what i know and what i have heard.
I believe we have to do the right thing always. I do with the Grace of God. I am Sorry i missed on doing it at the right time. Here i am....
This is about the last year-2024. I was to update this letter in December, but it has taken me time.
I write here, with regards to the transfer of Fr. John Pereira. But whether you think it is a transfer or not, i must write...
I am not writing this on my own accord. I write this as i am directed by Abba Father.
29th October 2023: This I saw, when a lady came into the Prayer Room and started clicking from her cell the Bible verses on the wall. The Bible Verses-is a LED display, i think but I could be wrong.
This lady was in conversation on the cell while being directed to the clicks. Really not my problem what a person chooses to do.
But speaking on one’s cell in the Prayer Room is a complete lack of reverence to our Lord (The Holy Eucharist).
And how truly blind these two ladies are. IF ONLY one opens the Bible and reads... This is Day 2.
and This is Day 1.
A few days prior to Day 2, as I was seated outside the Prayer Room in clear visibility of The Holy Eucharist, and speaking with my Lord, a lady came and sat beside me.
And in speaking she let me know of her conversation with Fr. John and that she had asked Him ‘if she could put the Bible-Light on’ explaining to Him, the reason. And Fr. John’s reply was a 'no' but He did explain it to her. He told her something close to this, 'God is The One, Who guides the soul'. I didn’t ask for what Fr. John's response was, because it was not for me to ask. But she told me anyway.
She told me of a non-Catholic lady in the Prayer Room. She wanted this N-C lady to be attracted by the L.E.D light and come to read the Bible verses. It was her understanding that the Bible verse would make her know the Lord better. And this is the reason she put the LED light idea forward with Fr. John and then she explained it to me.
All I could think was how poor in understanding this woman was. But i did not let her know that.
The n-C lady; I have seen her couple of times. She prays and leaves undisturbed. Her understanding of the Lord was more than this Catholic lady, who failed to see that her attention was in the wrong place. And worst of all she wanted me for some reason to know of her dispute with Fr. John. I was not interested at all in this conversation. Because women they fight for no good reason. To stay away that is what I try my best at. But truthfully knowing this at the time, i thought, didn’t help. But now i understand differently.
--------------------------
(i bring everything that transpired before my eyes. As i saw-as i hear, i write).
[[[To a person who has left the world, i never mention the word LATE. It is a practice of the world. But it is not what i know or believe. And i am sorry.
I wish to be with the Lord-to see HIM. One day my time will come.
And all who have gone before me have seen the Lord, they have heard His Voice for real. How truly Blessed they are.
They are not LATE. They are EARLY!
For they are earlier than me. They have gone before me]]]
I Love Priests.
I Believe Each Priest is Jesus. There is no question in my mind. I am-A whole 100% sure. Fr. Alvaro Nazareth taught me well.
--------------------------
She expected me to find a fault in the Priest.
She wanted a reply, and I did reply with, "You had a question, and you asked the Priest. There is nothing wrong to ask. But now you have the answer. You don’t need to be mad at the Priest". I reminded her, "A Priest is Jesus, and you have to obey to the response the Priest has given you."
She looked angry and very disturbed. I have seen such anger, it is destructive.
I have to say, 'hers' was a baseless question. I think she may have wanted a reason to find a fault in Fr. John. That is how I saw it at that moment. And that is the opinion even now.
The next day, she came to the Prayer Room and on leaving she switched the lights on. I think on the days Fr. John celebrated the second mass; she would on purpose switch on the lights earlier.
We speak of harassment in the world today. We never speak of people harassing Priests. But lay people sometimes do-because some of them equate themselves to Priests and some dare think they are better than Priests. What a poor understanding these people have?
I term this as HARASSMENT to A Priest.
This switching on the LED light happened every day. Sometimes I would know only when I would be leaving. And when leaving i would often wonder what kind of evil is this?
(She failed to understand that The Priest-Who has sacrificed His life, leaving His Family, His Home-what will this LED light matter to Him?)
All these women group leaders, their arrogance hits the ceiling.
This would be the second group leader with a fault line in the Church premises.
People don't like to hear the truth from a Priest. The moment the truth hurts a person, they will remind the Priest, He is just here for so and so years. And then He will be transferred.
Is this the way one speaks with a Priest? Is this a way to speak to Jesus?
This is just an example to help you understand.
Let's say XYZ-(a woman) is mad with Person123 Because she asks for Person123's consent on (the reason-the mike system).
Person123 says no clearly explaining it to XYZ.
XYZ is more than mad and wants Person123 out. But XYZ cannot mention (the reason-the mike system) to wanting the person out.
Because should XYZ mention this (the reason-the mike system) -XYZ could get rejected for the reason given - as it is the truth.
So, when XYZ is mad and to prove control XYZ will look for what is the weak spot.
And when they find that weak spot (VOICE)-they will attack on that. It does not have to be the truth, but it will be made to look believable.
Call no person good.
Latin was the international language of Catholic mass for centuries. The Second Vatican Council (1962–65) allowed the Latin Mass to be replaced with services in commonly used languages.
Back then when the celebration of the mass was in Latin, people did not understand, but in Faith they came.
The movie - The Passion of Christ was in Aramic and people watched it. Because it was a holy movie.
The celebration of the mass - is the Sacrifice of Jesus.
[[[If you happen to be at a Gujrati celebration of the mass, and you are English speaking person-it is still the Sacrifice of Jesus and not a word of criticism must ever flow from your mouth regarding the celebration of the mass. For what you do not understand, leave it to God, let Him fill you completely. Let Him be your ALL.
Yes, if you watch people dancers, before the beginning of the celebration of the mass, -we all know that is not really a part of the celebration of the mass, so there you are free to say, but control your speaking.]]]
Money & absolute power corrupts people. It intoxicates them and blinds them to their rigid beliefs.
My point being for centuries, people participated in the celebration of the mass, to be with the Lord. They never made an issue on anything. They were happy that they had Priests to celebrate the mass.
I grew up in a place, where we would come together in a room to celebrate the mass.
I know what It means to have a Priest. I have seen our Priest, make sacrifices every time to celebrate a Mass.
And I love our Priests; Their whole life is a Sacrifice.
We cannot let go of our ego and They-The Priests have given up their whole lives to Christ?
And the lay man-woman wants to equate himself-herself to a Priest.
NO LAY PERSON - in any lifetime -IS EVER A MATCH to The PRIEST!
I will repeat this sentence again.
NO LAY PERSON - in any lifetime -IS EVER A MATCH to The PRIEST!
If i could count a Trillion and One times * eternity.
NO LAY PERSON - in any lifetime -IS EVER A MATCH to The PRIEST!
To know more on PRIESTS Please read: Love Prevails!: On PRIESTS...
We ought to pray to have more Priests.
We need to encourage and love our Priests.
We have to let them know what a Blessing they are to us. Because it is through each Priest, we have Jesus with us.
A Priest is Jesus, and when Jesus corrects you - you want to shut Jesus up. And because you felt offended, you want the Priest-Jesus, transferred.
You think you won? Do you feel that way?
Do you not know, do you not understand, how blind you are.
When you hurt a Priest, you hurt Jesus directly.
When you insult a Priest, you insult Jesus directly.
When you give a reason for a transfer of the Priest, you directly abandon Jesus.
When we complain of Priests making a demand for a transfer of Priests, we do so only because our sins blind us.
Is this the love of Christ? or is it self-love?
[[The who I am? (DANGEROUS THOUGHT).]]
We have to humble ourselves before a Priest as unto The Lord.
Jesus, meek and humble of heart make my heart, like unto Thine.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Luke 10:16 - “He who hears you hears me, and he who rejects you rejects me, and he who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
(Jesus' words)
When you reject a Priest, you reject Jesus. Plain and Simple. (Transferring a Priest-Rejecting a Priest = Rejecting Jesus.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fr. John Pereira is A simple Priest.
He directs a person, the way Jesus does because He is genuinely concerned of the person, He comes across.
He had His words of wisdom for me, not something i expected Him to say, considering that most people are not concerned on those aspects, but Fr. John Pereira was. It had me thinking for a long time.
He is direct and to the point while not being hurtful in His Words. There is a Power to TRUTH - It is His simplicity, His straightforwardness, His honesty in a simple direct approach. No thinking twice.
He is stern, because there is a truth He believes. And there is absolutely nothing wrong in His way.
Each day at the celebration of the mass, Fr. John would render His Homily for 5 minutes or so. There were times i would wish it could be longer. He always spoke from the heart.
On St. Blaise feast, I remember Him saying, 'you got to bless your throat, so you can speak the truth'. (That is so beautifully simple. I absolutely loved the words.) The TRUTH-is how I saw it.
I thought that was God at His Best. I skipped a line to have my throat blessed by Fr. John Pereira.
"Abba Father, i have done as You have asked me."
---------------------------NOTE-------------------------------------
In all truthfulness, on the matter of transfer of Priests, and when it comes to complaints by people (where it is not a valid reason such as this--there must never be a transfer.
To Whosoever is responsible in handling the matter of the Transfer of Priests.
i am nobody and as such i have no ground to say,
All i ask is:- There should be a complete ban on people having the right to ask for a PRIEST TRANSFER!
Thus, making the transfer of Priests on invalid reasons NULL.
I hope SOMEBODY will look into this and put this to a complete rest.
A complete STOPPAGE to people's request of PRIESTS TRANSFER on grounds that are not negotiable and MUST NEVER BE NEGOTIABLE!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
"Abba Father, i have done as You have asked me."
Thank You, Abba Father.
Thank You, Jesus.
Thank You, Holy Spirit.
