Monday, August 1, 2016: (St. Alphonsus Liguori)
Jesus said: “My people, some of My apostles were fisherman, and as I was sending them out into the world, I told them that now they would be catching souls instead of fish. I told them that they needed to be good examples in how to be models for others to live. You heard in the Gospel that My faithful need to be the ‘salt’ of the earth in teaching others how to be converted and repent of their sins. Be good disciples of My Word in your actions so you are not hypocrites. Most of all you need to remember your daily prayers, because I depend on My prayer warriors to help bring souls to Me. You need to be able to help your neighbor in sharing your time, your faith, and your charitable donations. When you love Me, you also need to show your love for your neighbor in your good works. You need to see Me present in every person, so you are doing things for your neighbor out of love for Me. So I am telling all of My faithful to go out to all the nations and share My Good News of salvation for the souls you meet.”
Blessed Solanus Casey said: “My dear little ones, you are living in a very difficult time as many evil ones are controlling your society. You also have many distractions and some addictions. Few Christians are praying and practicing their faith. Your people should spend a little time each day in the silence of contemplative prayer, so you can turn off the noise of worldly things, and have time to listen for the voice of Jesus. By following the directions of Jesus, you can direct your lives to His service, and He will guide you to your goal of heaven.”
Jesus said: “My people, you have read the Gospel where My apostles were frightened for their lives when they were in fear of drowning from a storm while they were in a boat with Me. They awakened Me, and I calmed the storm. My people, many of you have had serious problems in life, and you can call on Me to help you through your trials. I will calm your fears, but you must have faith and I will answer your requests. When you need healing in body or soul, you can call on the Holy Spirit to heal you. Call on the gifts of the Holy Spirit to reach out and convert souls from their depression and trials of this life.”
