Monday, September 21, 2026: (St. Matthew)
Jesus said: “My people, I walked by St. Matthew at the customs post, and I called him to follow Me. He got up immediately and followed Me. St. Matthew then held a supper for Me, sinners, and other tax collectors. The Pharisees questioned Me why I ate with sinners and tax collectors. I told them the sick need a physician, but the healthy do not. I came to save sinners and not the self-righteous. I told them I desire mercy and not sacrifice. I love all of My people, but those who follow Me every day, are My true disciples. I called My apostles to be My students because later they would spread My Word of My death and Resurrection. Reach out to help convert souls to the faith.”
Jesus said: “My people, you are headed for colder weather and your utility bills will be getting higher, especially with higher oil prices. People, who are heating their homes with oil, could see even higher prices. People may have to cut back on their casual spending so their budgets can handle increased utility bills. In the past I have encouraged people to have three months of extra food in your pantry to cover any unexpected food shortages. With diesel fuel at high prices, truckers are having difficulty in finding and affording high diesel prices. Pray that your family is prepared for another cold and snowy winter.”
