MIKE CHECK...

Ahem...

Excuse me for interrupting. I have this urge to write to you. We don't know one another (or do we?). Please walk with me for a moment. If you only knew how much this opportunity to speak to you means to me right now!

I lived in the valleys, travelled the ruins, searching for so long. Quiet and watching I wandered, waiting for the sun to break through. You are my companion now. In Spirit I share this moment. We are in this moment you and I, waiting and watching together. We listen. We live. We love. We are loved right now, right now, by the Master of Time and Eternity. Let me share with you what I have found on my journey...

We are called and chosen by God, purchased with His Blood to live for Him and in Him, and He in us. Son of the Most High God, fully God, fully human, Brother, Friend, Just Judge, Lover of souls - the Creator of Life and the world around us - Jesus, the Christ is our Blessed Redeemer.

I am sharing this Knowledge with you because this is what I was sent to do. There is no higher calling than sharing this Good News. If you have doubts, suspend them for a moment. I call on you to call on Him by His Holy Name and believe that He hears and is with you.

If you believe what I am telling you, please take a moment to pray this prayer:

Father, You know all things and are able to do all things. I place my life in Your hands. I believe that Your Son, Jesus Christ, died on the cross and shed His Blood to save me from all my sins. Cleanse me and renew me. Help me to change all the things that distance me from You; the things I am unable or unwilling to change on my own. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit and wash me in the Blood of the Lamb. I place all my trust in You now and forever. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Here is my prayer for you, dear reader:

Lord Jesus, Savior and King, I ask You to please empower the person reading this right now to believe in Your Holy Name and Your saving Love. By the power of Your Holy Spirit, please indwell and enlighten this person with Your Truth, Love, Light and Life. Initiate this person into the joy of Your presence and give them faith and hope to live in and through You. Teach them to pray, to love, to serve, to seek, to obey and to live for You all the days of their life. All things are possible for those who believe in You. I love You and Trust that You will answer my prayer for them. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
Mike

Repent, Call on the Name of Jesus and Believe!

For the Scripture says, "WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED." For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; for "WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED." -Romans 10:11-13 NASB

The Chaplet of Divine Mercy

2010-04-02T19:14:00.000-07:00

Jesus said to Sister Faustina:

"Say unceasingly this Chaplet that I have taught you. Anyone who says it will receive great Mercy at the hour of death. Priests will recommend it to sinners as the last hope. Even the most hardened sinner, if he recites this Chaplet even once, will receive grace from My Infinite Mercy. I want the whole world to know My Infinite Mercy. I want to give unimaginable graces to those who trust in My Mercy..."

"...When they say this Chaplet in the presence of the dying, I will stand between My Father and the dying person not as the just judge but as the Merciful Savior."

Psalm 100

2009-11-26T08:00:00.001-08:00

All Men Exhorted to Praise God.
A Psalm for Thanksgiving.

Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth.
Serve the LORD with gladness;
Come before Him with joyful singing.
Know that the LORD Himself is God;
It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter His gates with thanksgiving
And His courts with praise
Give thanks to Him, bless His name.
For the LORD is good;
His lovingkindness is everlasting
And His faithfulness to all generations.
