Eyes toward heaven...

"Seek true peace, not upon earth, but in heaven; not in men nor in other things created, but in God alone."--St. Therese of Lisieux

Opus Marianum...

"To Christ alone has she [the Church] attributed the honor that He by a certain absolute and excellent power should tread the serpent underfoot and, at the same time, endow others, and above all His Mother Mary, with similar power. Nor do we thus make the Mother the equal of the Son, but rather proclaim His greater glory, in that not only personally, but through His Mother and many others, He acts against the old serpent so powerfully that they, though by nature weak, triumph over so great a foe and reduce all his strength and cunning to nothingness."
--St. Peter Canisius (1521-97).

One faith, one Shepherd, one Church...

He said to them, "Where the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together."
--Luke, 17:37

"And Jesus handed over the keys to Simon, and ascended and returned to Him who had sent Him."

The Way of Unity, October 27, 1980
"I am the Mother of unity...
It is the Mother's role to lead back to mutual love, to concord and esteem, and to full communion all those who, by means of baptism, have been incorporated into the very life of my Son Jesus. Some have wanted to put your heavenly Mother aside, precisely in the deceptive prospect of making reunification of Christians easier. This on the contrary has brought on new and more serious obstacles.
A true reunification of Christians is not possible unless it be in the perfection of truth. And truth has been kept intact only in the Catholic Church, which must preserve it, defend it and proclaim it to all without fear.
It is the light of the truth which will draw many of my children to return to the bosom of the only Church founded by Jesus. For this reason, the reunion of all Christians in the Catholic Church will coincide with the triumph of my Immaculate Heart in the world..."
--Our Lady Speaks to Her Beloved Priests (1987, pp.303-04).

O' Faithful Remnant...

"Let your loins be girded and your lamps burning, and be like men who are waiting for their master to come home from the marriage feast, so that they may open to him at once when he comes and knocks. Blessed are those servants whom the master finds awake when he comes; truly, I say to you, he will gird himself and have them sit at table, and he will come and serve them. If he comes in the second watch, or in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those servants! But know this, that if the householder had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have left his house to be broken into. You also must be ready; for the Son of man is coming at an unexpected hour."--Luke, 12:35-40

October 13, 1981

"You are now living out its conclusive phase...see what great signs I accompany this anguished appeal of mine! With messages I have given and apparitions I have granted in many parts of the world, with my numerous weepings, even with blood, I want to make you understand that this is a grave hour, that the cup of divine justice is now full...In a final attempt to save you, I am giving you the secure refuge of my Immaculate Heart. I am calling you from every part of the world, through this work of mine, to enter into this refuge by way of your consecration. Raise up to the Father a powerful cry of supplication and reparation. From the divine Heart of the Son may rivers of mercy descend upon this world which, through the powerful action of the Holy Spirit, will be entirely renewed that in this the glory of God the Father may shine forth."
--Our Lady Speaks to Her Beloved Priests (1987, p.330-31).

Prayer: Jesus and Mary, help us, your remnant, to remain ever faithful and to be light unto this darkness...Amen.

Do not sin anymore....

"Alas, this message of mine has remained unheeded. And thus humanity has continued to hasten along the road of rebellion against God, in obstinate rejection of his law of love. Thus it has come even to the denial of sin, to the justification of even the gravest moral disorders, in the name of a falsely conceived liberty. Thus Satan, my adversary, has succeeded in making you fall into his seduction. Many have lost the awareness of sin and so, it is more and more committed and justified...even in those countries of the most ancient Christian tradition, the great crime of killing children still in their mother's womb has gone so far as to be legitimized. This crime calls for vengeance in the sight of God. This is the hour of justice and mercy. This is the hour of chastisement and salvation. The heavenly Mother intercedes before God for you because never, as in the present time, have you been so menaced and so close to the supreme test. For this reason I beg you to repent and return to God...my apostles in these latter times--I want this anguished appeal to reach to the very limits of the earth."strong>
--Our Lady Speaks to Her Beloved Priests, (1987, p.301)

Wisdom is radiant and unfading...
He who rises early to seek her will have no difficulty. She hastens to make herself known to those who desire her. He who rises early to seek her will have no difficulty, for he will find her sitting at his gate...because she goes about seeking those worthy of her, and she graciously appears to them in their paths, and meets them in every thought.--Wisdom, 6:12-16

Bread for the life of the world...believe!

"I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. I am the living bread which came down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh...truly, truly I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day."
Many of his disciples, when they heard it said,"This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?" But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at it, said to them, "Do you take offense at this? Then what if you were to see the Son of man ascending where he was before? The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. But there are some of you that do not believe."
After this many of his disciples drew back and no longer went about with him.
--John, 6:41-67
Mother of the Eucharist, August 8, 1986
"Beloved sons, how my heart is filled with joy in seeing you here, on a priestly pilgrimage of adoration, of love, of reparation and thanksgiving to Jesus, my Son and my God, present in the Eucharist, to console Him for the great emptiness, the great ingratitude and the great indifference, with which He is surrounded in his real and loving presence in all the tabernacles of the earth, on the part of so many of my children...Jesus becomes truly present, at the moment of the consecration...which transforms the matter of bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ."strong>
