ARCH ANGELS

ARCH ANGELS

As I watched:

Thrones were set in place

and one of great age took his seat.

His robe was white as snow,

the hair of his head as pure as wool.

His throne was a blaze of flames,

its wheels were a burning fire.

 

A stream of fire poured out,

issuing from his presence.

A thousand thousand waited on him,

ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him.

 

A court was held

and the books were opened.

And I saw, coming on the clouds of heaven,

one like a son of man.

 

He came to the one of great age

and was led into his presence.

On him was conferred sovereignty,

glory and kingship,

and men of all peoples, nations and

languages became his servants.

 

His sovereignty is an eternal sovereignty

which shall never pass away,

nor will his empire ever be destroyed.  Dan. 7:9-10, 13-14

GOD'S GREATNESS

Psalm 8

How great is your name, O Lord our God,
through all the earth! what is man that you
should keep him in mind, mortal man
that you care for him?

Yet you have made him little less than
a god; with glory and honor you crowned him,
gave him power over the works of your hand,
put all things under his feet.

All of them, sheep and cattle, yes, even
the savage beasts, birds of the air, and
fish that make their way through the waters.

SEEK THE LORD

 SEEK THE LORD

Seek the Lord while he is still to be found,

call to him while he is still near.

Let the wicked man abandon his way,

the evil man his thoughts.

Let him turn back to the Lord who will take pity on him,

to our God who is rich in forgiving;

for my thoughts are not your thoughts,

my ways not your ways – it is the Lord who speaks.

Yes, the heavens are as high above earth

as my ways are above your ways,

my thoughts above your thoughts. Isaiah 55:5-9

RESENTMENT AND ANGER

RESENTMENT AND ANGER

Resentment and anger, these are foul things and
both are found with the sinner.
He who exacts vengeance will experience
the vengeance of the LORD, who keeps
strick account of sin.
Forgive your neighbour the hurt he does to you,
and when you pray, your sins will be forgiven.

Ecc.27:28

THE HOLY SPIRIT

                                           THE HOLY SPIRIT

The wind blows wherever it wishes;
you hear the sound it makes,
but you do not know where it comes
from or where it is going.
It is like that with everyone
 who is born of the Spirit.

John 3:8

OUR LADY OF SORROWS

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 to thee,

O Virgin of virgins, my mother,

to thee do I come

sinful and sorrowful,

O Mother of the world incarnate,

despise not my petitions,

but in thy mercy hear

                                       and answer me.

Amen.

At the foot of the Cross Jesus handed his

Mother over to his apostle John

MY PRAYER

That each day I draw closer to you Lord

That each day my heart like that of my Lord Jesus Christ

That each day I grow in holiness

That each day cares and worries do

Not take control of my life

That each day my knowledge of you increases

That each day I see you in all creatures

That each day I grow in humility.

 

My prayer to you Lord JESUS Christ that I am what you desire me to be.
