Friday, July 11, 2008: (St. Benedict)
Jesus said: “My people, you all do not have the time that a monk in a monastery has to adore Me, but you can make an effort to visit Me in Adoration or at My tabernacle for a short time. The Benedictine monastic life is quite rigorous in quiet time, prayer, and fasting. These cloistered orders are praying for reparation for the sins of the world. This is why making time for Me at Adoration is the best time spent in giving Me praise, glory, and thanks for all of your blessings. Remember when you are before Me to spend at least 5-10 minutes in quiet contemplative prayer so I can talk to your heart of My Will for you. You are always looking for discernment and direction in your mission, and this is the best opportunity to hear My word. The monastic life puts aside all of your earthly desires, so remember not to let any of your earthly desires take away your focus on Me. Remember also to wear your Benedictine crucifixes for protection from the demons with this exorcism medal on the back.”
Jesus said: “My people, ever since Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden of Eden, now people have to work by the sweat of their brow to provide food and shelter for themselves. There are some people supported by your government, but the bulk of your people are hard working citizens. Not everyone is gifted with many talents to have a good paying job, so there are a majority of workers who even need two jobs in the family in order to pay for life’s necessities. Your workers in America are having hard times with many layoffs, and they are competing with cheap labor for jobs in many other countries that are paying slave wages. It is your Wall Street leaders who are trying to ship your jobs overseas to make themselves more money at the expense of having less jobs for Americans. These same greedy employers want to lower your wages and do away with your benefits. They even import workers into America for lower wages for skilled labor. One day they will receive My justice for exploiting other nations for their own greed. Pray that you will find enough work to feed your families, and help those in your family where they may need money to survive. Be patient for now, for you will have My reward later.”
