I will be their secure refuge during life, and above all in death. 5. I will bestow a large blessing upon all their undertakings. 6. Sinners shall find in My Heart the source and the infinite ocean of mercy. 7. Tepid souls shall grow fervent. 8. Fervent souls shall quickly mount to high perfection. 9. I will bless every place where a picture of My Heart shall be set up and honored. l0 I will give to priests the gift of touching the most hardened hearts. 11. Those who shall promote this devotion shall have their names written in My Heart, never to be blotted out. 12. I promise thee in the excessive mercy of My Heart that My all-powerful love will grant to all those who communicate on the First Friday in nine consecutive months the grace of final penitence; they shall not die in My disgrace nor without receiving the Sacraments: My Divine Heart shall be their safe refuge in this last moment.

Faith in Miracles “God is always almighty; He can at all times work miracles and He would work them now as in the days of old were it not that faith is lacking!” St. John Vianney

for me to pray for other people? If Jesus contacted you personally, and asked if there was anything you needed, wouldn’t you give him a list that included favors for your friends and family? It would make you feel great to spread the wealth of Jesus’ generosity. In fact, Jesus promised his faithful followers that, “whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it” (John 14:13-14). The Creator of the Universe promised that, when we are united with his will, he will come to our aid whenever we ask. Intercessory prayer – asking God for favors for other people – helps us to spread the wealth of Jesus’ generosity. It is a wonderful way to declare our love for one another. “The fervent prayer of a righteous person is very powerful” (James 5:16). Plus, when we ask for God’s intercession for others, we become more aware of their needs. That is what Jesus wants.

different stresses. Our duty is not to abandon ship, but to keep her on
her course.

When I pray, I am in training for the greatest event of all- the moment when my soul returns to its Maker and the two become one again. I am training not to overcome, but to surrender-not to perform, but to stop doing and allow the other to do all. Armchair Mystic: Easing Into Contemplative Prayer |

Nourished by the Cross
The wood of the cross is mine for my eternal salvation.
I am
nourished by it, I feast on
it. I am strengthened by its roots. I lie down under its
branches. I fill my nostrils with its savor as with a
sweet breeze. This tree is a strong prop for the
universe, binding all things together, supporting the
whole inhabited
earth, a cosmic
interlacing which embraces the motley of humanity, the
Spirit holds it firm with invisible
nails so that its contact with God may never be
loosened, as it touches heaven with its peak, keeps its
base firmly on earth and embraces all the atmosphere
with its measureless arms.

ST. FRANCIS’ STYLE OF PRAYER St. Francis of Assisi is one of the most popular saints of the Church. Even non-Catholics often are inspired by St. Francis. Why is his appeal so great? In the monastic tradition, monks and nuns were encouraged to transcend the world and look inward to search for God. Francis had a different approach. He came to prayer from the experience of a layman. Francis’ family belonged to the rising middle class in Assisi. His father was a merchant who sold cloth, and Francis apparently worked for him. In his father’s shop, Francis came into contact with all types of people — farmers, craftsmen, artisans — who worked with their hands and valued the things of the earth. The idea of escaping from this world to search for God would have been foreign to Francis. Francis saw the material world not as an obstacle to prayer but as the creation of God which manifests the glory of the Creator. To Francis, the Christian did need to search for a hidden God, but merely recognize the presence of the God who had already come to us in creation, and most especially, in the Incarnation. The journey of prayer and of life, then, is to disclose the presence of God in whose image we are created and whose presence abides within us. Francis found God in others: in his neighbor, his brothers, the lepers, the poor, and even the tiny creatures of nature. Where do you find God? Written by Jean Mowbray, based on “St. Francis’ Style of Prayer.” by Ilia Delio, O.S.F., St. Anthony Messenger, October 2004
