The Beauty of a Lily...

Do you want to be like a lily?

A lily does not worry about tomorrow; for each day has enough worries of its own. Can you, for all your worrying change anything on your own? God's plans are laid out for us and we must trust Jesus entirely! So, do you want to be a lily?

St. John Chrysostom wrote. In fact they are Your words, Your words to us through me; this is what You said:

"I, your father, I, your spouse, I, your home, I, your nurse, I, your root, I, your foundation. What ever you want. I will be. You lack nothing. I will work for you. For I came to serve and not to be served. I will be your friend and your host, your head and your brother, your sister and your mother. I will be everything. Only be intimate with me!
I will be poor for you, errant for you, on the Cross for you, in the tomb for you. Above I plead with the Father for your sake, on earth I became intercessor to the Father for your sake. You are everything for Me, brother, co-heir, friend and member. What more do you want?"

Don't worry about tomorrow. It will take care of itself. You have enough to worry about today. Matthew 6:34

O Lord, let me become repulsed of all that does not come from You, keep me hidden in You, give me wisdom to instruct me so that You through me can accomplish Your designs on Your Church. Let me , by inhaling from Your Mouth the graces I need to keep my soul tranquil and in peace. O Lord, let not one of your sheep be lost, let the fig tree blossom and the vine bear fruit. Jesus, I trust you...Amen.


Peace that comes from God...

God's Design for Women...

As I look around I see awakenings, suggesting that we are coming into the age of woman, but the age of woman as designed by God, in the image of Miriam of Nazareth. It is our devotion to the Virgin Mary the we can look upon her as our model, to emanate... defending the diginity and the essences of the women God has designed us to be. We as women are given gifts... given to each of us designed to help others develop their talents and charisms.

Fr. Cantalamessa says in his homily...The Age of the Woman

"We might hope that there will finally come, for humanity, the age of woman: the age of the heart, of tenderness, of compassion." I see this happening... it is a new day as "in the beginning" that we are able to love and walk with the Lord and therefore love and help all others...

For All Who Are In Need...

I wanted to share with you something that I heard about today, for all
who are in need at this time. Whenever Mother Teresa felt she needed
urgent help from heaven she used to gather her sisters together and say
what she called her 'Express Novena' . It was simply saying the
Memorare nine times in a row concentrating on Our Blessed Mother. For
all who are ill, or in pain or suffering of any kind today, I pray this
prayer for you. God bless and keep you all, and give you His peace.

Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.

We need to come together and pray for one another... moving and living in the Holy Will of God.

God bless and keep you all,
Elizabeth

Come Worship the Lord!

Psalm 150

Praise the LORD! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty firmament! Praise him for his mighty deeds; praise him according to his exceeding greatness! Praise him with trumpet sound; praise him with lute and harp! Praise him with timbrel and dance; praise him with strings and pipe! Praise him with sounding cymbals; praise him with loud clashing cymbals! Let everything that breathes praise the LORD! Praise the LORD!







John Michael Talbot - Come Worship the Lord

Love n' Peace,

Word of God Speak

And God, he said to me, "Son of man, stand upon your feet, and I will speak with you." And when he spoke to me, the Spirit entered into me and set me upon my feet; and I heard him speaking to me. EZEKIEL 2: 1,2

Jesus Says...

Luke 15: 4-10
Jesus says "What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.' Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance. "Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it? And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost.' Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents."








Our Lord Jesus accepts us just as we are... call to Him, ask forgiveness from our hearts and seek His will in our lives.

Teach me Your will, for You are my God. May Your kind spirit guide me on ground that is level. Psalm 143: 10

Peace n' Blessings,

God and Man at Table Are Sat Down

"God and Man at Table Are Sat Down"

"O, welcome all ye noble saints of old, As now before your very eyes unfold, The wonders all so long ago foretold, God and man at table are sat down,
God and man at table are sat down...


Elders, martyrs, all are falling down, Prophets, patriarchs are gathering ‘round. What angels longed to see now man has found, God and man at table are sat down,
God and man at table are sat down...


Who is this who spreads the victory feast? Who is this who makes our warring cease? Jesus, risen savior, prince of peace, God and man at table are sat down,
God and man at table are sat down...


Beggars, lame, and harlots also here, Repentant publicans are drawing near,Wayward sons come home without a fear, God and man at table are sat down,
God and man at table are sat down."







God Bless Everyone,
Elizabeth

We Trust You, O Lord

We Entrust to You the New Millennium

Today we wish to entrust to you the future that awaits us, and we ask you to be with us on our way. We are the men and women of an extraordinary time, exhilarating yet full of contradictions.

Humanity now has instruments of unprecedented power: we can turn this world into a garden, or reduce it to a pile of rubble.
We have devised the astounding capacity to intervene in the very well-springs of life: man can use this power for good, within the bounds of the moral law, or he can succumb to the short-sighted pride of a science which accepts no limits, but tramples on the respect due to every human being.

Today as never before in the past, humanity stands at a crossroads. And once again, O Virgin Most Holy, salvation lies fully and uniquely in Jesus, your Son.

Pope John Paul II in the presence of 1,500 bishops in Rome, on October 8, 2000

God's voice thunders in marvelous ways; he does great things beyond our understanding. Job 37:5

These words were said 8 years ago and our need to be in prayer today is for the Holy will of God, not our will but God's Will for these elections.

We need to trust in our Lord knowing that He is bigger then the storms. When we are in the middle of them we need to speak to the storm and tell the storm how big our God is...

We need to be in prayer for the good in all things... to turn this country, this world into a garden of Love and peace.

Remember, He created the universe, He parted the Red Sea and led His people out. He did it in His way not ours...

We do not need to live out of fear, He is with us...

Blessings,
Elizabeth
