The Holy Saturday many thought they were certainly Crucified with Jesus.

We know that our old self was Crucified with Him, so that our sinful body might be done away with, that we might no longer be in slavery to sin. For a dead person has been absolved from sin. If, then, we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him. Romans 6:6-8

Genesis 1:1–2:2, Psalm 16, Romans 6: 3-11 & Luke 24:1-12

The Holiest of Saturdays reflects on Christ’s frightening death on a Cross the day before while living in the present day of True Sabbath observance where historians trust this is why Judas’ body was not touched or moved believing the rope or branch eventually broke. The scene must have been horrendous and made it difficult to eat transitioning the Church into a history of fasting on Saturday that included 40 hours of no food. Our lives have changed but remain the same since Christ’s death for the severe fast is now offered on Friday yet we still reflect on this uncertainty many followers felt before knowing the Resurrection as Promised by Christ but seemingly doubted until the day Thomas places His hand in His side exclaiming, “My LORD and My God.”

The first day after Christ’s death must have been taxing on the soul of any who came to believe in the Teacher. Many thought they were certainly Crucified with Jesus dying an agonizing death of love feeling hopeless, unsure and lost. It wasn’t until the next day did anyone discover His Resurrection feeling exuberating amidst deep terrifying fears. Reflect today on His Resurrection and why it gave anyone who confesses Christ is LORD dies with Him being “absolved from sin.” Reflect on what scares you as they were scared being without Him over 2000 years ago. How can you manage your fears by living surrendered to a life of Christ? What can you do to make your life represent an Apostle of faith, hope and love living in charity? God asks us to have faith “he died to sin once and for all; as to his life, he lives for God” as we are asked to do. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today our old self dies from sin living for faith, hope and love of Your Son Christ Jesus. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. Day three of a Novena for Peter John and his wife Joy to find work and trust God will work His grace in their life. LORD from Psalm 56:5 I chant, ”I praise the word of God; I trust in God, I do not fear. What can mere flesh do to me?.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,

Romans 8:28

Learn from God Eternal Life begins– Romans 6: 3-11

Be not unaware

Christ baptism share

In His death we dare

Raised from the snare

Of death we daily stare

Giving all glory to the Father’s care

Living in the newness of life’s fair

United with Him in Resurrection’s prayer

Done away with old self’s flair

Slavery no more to sin’s mare

Absolved from sin dead in Christ

Living for God in Christ’s Light

He lives for God dead to sin

Once and for all sin’s death limb

No power of death we comprehend

Learn from God Eternal Life begins

THE Good Friday of why we live in freedom from sin finding grace for timely help.

Yet it was our pain that He bore, our sufferings He endured. We thought of Him as stricken, struck down by God and afflicted, But He was pierced for our sins, crushed for our iniquity. He bore the punishment that makes us whole, by His wounds we were healed. Isaiah 53:4-5

So let us confidently approach the throne of grace to receive mercy and to find grace for timely help. Hebrews 4:16

Jesus answered, “My Kingdom does not belong to this world. If My Kingdom did belong to this world, My attendants [would] be fighting to keep Me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, My Kingdom is not here.” So Pilate said to Him, “Then you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say I am a king. For this I was born and for this I came into the world, to testify to the Truth. Everyone who belongs to the Truth listens to My voice.” John 18:36-37

It was preparation day for Passover, and it was about noon. And he said to the Jews, “Behold, your king!” They cried out, “Take him away, take him away! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your king?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar.” Then he handed Him over to them to be crucified. John 19:14-16

Isaiah 52:13–53:12, Psalm 31, Hebrews 4:14-16; 5:7-9 & John 18:1–19:42

We discover today that Good Friday is more than just a day off from work or school but the “Good” humanity received in having its sins forgiven forever by the affliction and death Christ bore for all. It’s a strong depiction to say, “His Blood washed us clean,” but recently I stopped the wound of a child bleeding after being hit by a swing and I can tell you it was everything but clean. It was scary and it made me act just as the intention of calling one Friday a year Good; it makes me act on God’s Word for I know in my soul that “everyone who belongs to the Truth listens to My voice” I read daily as a guide since the day it struck me like a Light my soul could never turn off- live and share Christ’s Good News.

I drew in the past and asked forgiveness repenting to live in obedience to Christ’s love finding charity is the good God wants us to share everyday of our lives. His voice asks me to lift mine in speaking love over death asking mothers and fathers to allow life to live out the right of a mistake never created by God but lived in selfish desires of the heart. I implore you to join us in our solemn walk wearing black please as we pray at the death scene of mistakes presumed by mortals never agreed to by its Creator. We begin our procession at 9 AM as we proclaim the Good News of Christ to all people at 117th. Today is THE Good Friday of why we live in freedom from sin finding grace for timely help in the good Christ gave to all. Act accordingly as an army available. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today to live the Good this Friday means for our Redemption every day of our lives. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. Day two of a Novena for Peter John and his wife Joy to find work and trust God will work His grace in their life. LORD from Psalm 73:23-26 I chant, ” Yet I am always with you; you take hold of my right hand. With your counsel you guide me, and at the end receive me with honor. Whom else have I in the heavens? None beside you delights me on earth. Though my flesh and my heart fail, God is the rock of my heart, my portion forever.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,

Romans 8:28

By the Good a death brought Holy Friday

The beginning was set

He offered not regret

The time had come to let

Humanity be freed from their debt

History had been freed

His confession He would bleed

Obedience of love to death’s need

Humanity would Eternally agree

Scourged and pilfered

Struck like a thief

Mocked and spit upon

They know not what they believe

We were scared and willing

To let One die for all

Unknowingly fulfilling

The Will of God to call

Events of a painful day

Would allow humanity to say

Our sins were completely washed away

By the Good a death brought Holy Friday

Love of God’s charity you share with every poor and rich man alike.

“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the LORD God, “the One Who Is and Who Was and Who Is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8

“The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to bring glad tidings to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, and to proclaim a year acceptable to the LORD.” Luke 4:18-19

Isaiah 61:1-3, 6, 8-9, Psalm 89, Revelation 1:5-8 & Luke 4:16-21

They used to ask why Jesus ate and drank with tax collectors and sinners whereby Jesus replies, “Those who are healthy do not need a physician, but the sick do. I have not come to call the righteous to repentance but sinners.” Luke 5:31-32 Jesus acknowledges their false pretentions of excluding the poorest of the poor when in Truth God wants all captives to be set free in Christ’s Salvation from the oppression felt by those who are hungry to those who have too much aching for acceptance and redemption as much as the Child of God who aches for connection God promises in treating one’s self as you treat others who neighbor alongside your established community of life.

There can only be One First and Last “the One Who Is and Who Was and Who Is to come, the Almighty.” In Christ we must recognize Salvation comes from the Blood of His Cross while keeping pace with His Will in every thought, action and deed. The Jesus that lives in your being is shown to the world in His Spirit radiating through the colorful radar scopes of existence blinking the codes of Salvation’s Light.

Your desires to be One with Christ in celebration as well as suffering helps set the captives free while recovering the sight of sinners seeking sainthood. The flag flying 20 feet up in my front yard beneath the Red, White and Blue says, “God is Love” with a Cross and an open Bible proclaiming “a year acceptable to the LORD” lives forever by the faith, hope and love of God’s charity you share with every poor and rich man alike. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today we proclaim liberty to the captives by Christ’s Salvation from sin. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. Novena for Peter John and his wife Joy to find work and trust God will work His grace in their life. LORD from Psalm 55:2-4 I chant,” Listen, God, to my prayer; do not hide from my pleading; hear me and give answer. I rock with grief; I groan at the uproar of the enemy, the clamor of the wicked.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,

Romans 8:28

The Alpha and Omega wails the LORD God– Revelation 1:5-8

Grace from Christ expressed

Firstborn of the dead is dressed

Ruler of Kings His Father’s best

Freed us by His Blood giving sin a rest

A Kingdom for Truth had long been established

God and His priests giving glory by the ravished

He has the Power and Peace formed like no other

The Faithful Witness to His Church the Mother

We will all see Him riding amid the clouds

From far and wide every eye will be proud

Even those who pierced Him will circumvent

Peoples of the earth will assuredly lament

The Alpha and Omega wails the LORD God

He is the One Who Is and surely Was

He is the One to come our yearning past

The Only Almighty Who call us to fast

No lie to disease in soul’s He would please.

Then Judas, His betrayer, said in reply, “Surely it is not I, Rabbi?” He answered, “You have said so.” Matthew 26:25

Isaiah 50:4-9, Psalm 69 & Matthew 26:14-25

The difficult task of responding to anyone by wearing white even just a little is the biggest falsehood our souls can endure. Why people lie when the Truth is obvious reminds me of how people treat liars as someone being brushed aside just as Christ did to Judas labeled “his betrayer” by Matthew, “You have said so.” We think the lie natural moving into one “little white lie” after another fornicating our brains to believe ugliness and sin benefits us somehow to get ahead or delay sadness and distress.

Judas selfishly complied with Christ unknowingly fulfilling Divine Destiny destroying a soul who may have never repented but instead gave the money back and hung himself dying the deepest form of regret by suicide. “Flinging the money into the temple, he departed and went off and hanged himself.”  Matthew 27:5 If only we’d face the Truth by laying aside our selfish pretentions of civil character and live up to the standards God instituted in His Word, we’d come to find a driven need to live in charity abiding in Divinity’s Love.

We’d wear white as a sign of his Truth living not as a betrayer but a believer in His Redemption of Forgiveness seeking to share Christ Crucified and Risen for the sins of the world. Here, we find the Truth by faith driven in eye witness accounts. The Core of Christ’s Way was given to us by His Life, Death and Resurrection. Nothing to run and hide from by self-reclusion or self-annihilation. Jesus died for us all. Recorded. Received. Redemption. Released. No lie to disease in soul’s He would please. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today we never lie and deny Your Truth. Day 9 of a Novena for Joelle Metro. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. Prayers of healing for David Thorpe in Trauma Burn Center. LORD from Psalm 49:4-5 I chant,” My mouth shall speak words of wisdom, my heart shall offer insights. I will turn my ear to a riddle, expound my question on a lyre.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Romans 8:28

The Christ for the Father you’d comply– Matthew 26:14-25

He was one of the Twelve

A Disciple called Judas who fell

According to the Divine Will of God to tell

Who the Christ was by a kiss he’d foretell

So Chief Priests what will you exchange

The head of Jesus of whom you complain

I will hand him over to you without shame?

Thirty pieces of silver for His death he ordained

Every opportunity began to exist

Of when he’d hand over His bounded wrist

Bound to face a Crucifixion fix

Sins of humanity forgiven to list

Where should we prepare the Passover Meal?

The Disciples encounter to Christ a big deal

Into the city you will find nothing to steal

For a certain man knows the appointed time draws near

As ordered they left and prepared the Feast

At evening they came and reclined all Twelve at peace

While eating Jesus said one of you will betray me at least

Distressed deeply God’s Will would complete

The Redemption of Sins for Humanity’s conclave

By the man I dip my morsel is the one who betrays

Woe to that man for how he has behaved

Better not to be born than make money your slave

Judas labeled His betrayer said in reply

Surely it is not I, Rabbi?

You have said so to deny

The Christ for the Father you’d comply

A Light to the Nations Salvation: There is no denying God in love.

I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another. This is how all will know that you are My Disciples, if you have love for one another. John 13:34-35

Isaiah 49:1-6, Psalm 71 & John 13:21-38

The traitor is identified and is asked to “squeal” quickly allowing Jesus to open up and announce, “Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him. [If God is glorified in Him,] God will also glorify Him in Himself, and He will glorify Him at once. My children, I will be with you only a little while longer.” John 13:31b-33a The time has come for Jesus to fulfill all destinies of God’s Will where each is glorified in one another by the examples of faith by obedience, hope from prayer and action in proclaiming God’s Truth in charity taking upon Himself the sins of the world once and for all by His Death and Resurrection.

No longer will anyone be able to say, ”I can’t be forgiven” for this or that snuffing out quitting as an excuse for abandoning God’s Will for the will of self. God simply asks “as I have loved you, so you also should love one another.” Here, we find the obedience God asks of us all knowing faith by our surrender, praying in expectation of God’s Grace and proclaiming God’s Truth as much by your walk as by what you say when you get there in words or most importantly actions of God’s charity. They will have no reason to ask if you are a Disciple of Jesus Christ for “they will know we are Christians by our love” just as the hymn I sing in the prisons. There is no denying God in love. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today to love one another as You love us my LORD and my God. Day 8 of a Novena for Joelle Metro. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 43:3a, 5 I chant, ”Send your light and your fidelity, that they may be my guide. Why are you downcast, my soul? Why do you groan within me? Wait for God, for I shall again praise Him, my Savior and my God.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Romans 8:28

A Light to the Nations Salvation– Isaiah 49:1-6

The world must listen

Guided by words of Truth

Isaiah the Prophet glistens

By the LORD called from birth

In his mother’s womb he harkened

His soul to God’s Eternal degree

A sharp-edged sword concealed in arm’s shadow

A polished arrow shown in the glory He’s shown to me

In vain my toiling seemed useless

My strength sapped from my very tree

Reward yet to be fulfilled in Truth

A servant from the womb for all eternity

The LORD has spoken

Since my womb’s conception

He is my only strength

Truly felt absent of rejection

In His sight of wonder

I find His glory restored

A Light to the Nations Salvation

The ends of the earth can’t ignore

Find His peace in the personal space you create for His Love.

Here is My servant whom I uphold, My Chosen One with whom I am pleased. Upon Him I have put My spirit; He shall bring forth justice to the nations. Isaiah 42:1

Even if my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will take me in. I believe I shall see the LORD’s goodness in the land of the living. Wait for the LORD, take courage; be stouthearted, wait for the LORD! Psalm 27:10, 13-14

Mary took a liter of costly perfumed oil made from genuine aromatic nard and anointed the feet of Jesus and dried them with her hair; the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil. John 12:3

Isaiah 42:1-7, Psalm 27 & John 12:1-11

Along the paths of life we seek our “personal space” in ways of deception until the day God places His love in your heart for Christ’s forgiveness and the personal space becomes a surrendered soul to His Truth abiding in worship everywhere life takes our beating hearts of faith, hope and love. The Prophet Isaiah foretold  the joy His Son would bring to the world aligning His Spirit exercising justice to the human race. Today we read into Psalm 27 finding two original sides of longing for God’s protection and placing all trust He will protect you.

Here, is the personal space you have longed for since you were a child finding it as you grew in corners of closets, tree-forts or maybe the bosom of your mother or tight hug of your father ignoring guilt or shame of sins spirits. Discoveries along the way of life led us down paths of excess and selfish decisions only God can forgive by the personal space you live in Him. “Even if my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will take me in” may describe your feelings of despair but I pray you find His peace in the personal space you create for His Love.

Our Psalmist found protection in his sanctuary while reminding humanity he also finds God’s Protection in every moments of life by trusting God’s life-giving connection in faith. To walk-the-walk and talk-the-talk is God’s Personal Space of aromatic beauty refreshing the soul even in the midst of despair. Mary felt it the day she anointed Jesus as a sign of messianic anointing filling her personal space with Christ Himself. She was protected and believed He IS the Anointed One. No matter where you find God’s Personal Space to be living in the Liberator’s Devotion will feed your belief to live in His charity by faith, hope and love. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today to find our personal space be everything for You LORD. Day 7 of a Novena for Joelle Metro. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 86:2-3 I chant, ”Preserve my life, for I am devoted; save your servant who trusts in You. You are my God; be gracious to me, LORD; to You I call all the day.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,

Romans 8:28

He is the Christ anointed and True– John 12:1-11

Bethany six days they were out

The Passover was near to lovingly shout

Cleansing and liberation’s they would tout

Jesus in Bethany Lazarus did not pout

Lazarus raised from the dead

By Christ His Savior lounging instead

Preparing dinner Martha patiently fed

Sister Mary was anointing Jesus’ head

Taking costly perfume Mary bathed His feet

Drying them with her hair to tears of love to greet

I’m sure Jesus was crying in love’s passion we meet

A thief turned it sour by the noise he’d bleep

Judas the Iscariot a disciple who’d fulfill

The destiny of God’s by evil’s moments thrill

Was a thief holding the money bag stealing his fill

Bleeped why the perfume wasn’t sold for charity’s till

Three hundred days wages gone for what

No charity given by the waste he’d corrupt

He stole the contributions leading to lust

Leave her alone came the cry Jesus would fuss

At My burial she can use it for Me

The poor will always be poor you see

Mary won’t always my personal space to treat

Like the crowd of Jews who sought Christ to believe

The Pharisees plotted to kill Lazarus too

The Jews came to believe because of you

Raising you from the dead Jesus would prove

He is the Christ anointed and True

Abiding in God’s Will He would shout– Palm Sunday Ride Luke 19:28-40

The LORD God has given me a well-trained tongue, That I might know how to answer the weary a word that will waken them. Morning after morning He wakens my ear to hear as disciples do; The LORD God opened my ear; I did not refuse, did not turn away. Isaiah 50:4-5

He humbled Himself, becoming obedient to death, even death on a Cross. Philippians 2:8

Then He took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My Body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of Me.” And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup is the New Covenant in My blood, which will be shed for you. Luke 23:19-20

Procession today is from Luke 19:28-40, Isaiah 50:4-7, Psalm 22, Philippians 2:6-11 & Luke 22:14—23:56

Sometimes we end up in places God Willfully guides us to in thought sending us by whispering elegance into action being as many might put, “in the right place at the right time.” I prefer to say, “being in God’s place all the time” aligning my well-trained tongue with God’s efforts, elegance and energy to listen to His Word every day focusing complete surrender of prayer obedient to proclaiming His Word. You can see the need in people’s face of the Truth they crave for but are hesitant until offered Christ’s affection to their lonely moment or confused state of connection.

We often serve the different retreats locally abiding in Christ’s willingness to serve anyone anytime anywhere offering our time and tenacity sharing insights and love of service. We served such a retreat yesterday hearing the story of faith, hope and love of charity by men who needed each other. One of the original members shared his memories of their Walk to Emmaus was purposely laid to serve one another in the humility Christ showed laying down on a Cross taking upon Himself the sins of all for all time.

I found myself drawn to the loner in the group standing amongst the men at break with a face I’d describe as puzzled. I stopped as I began to walk past him and just talked for a bit. He’s been away from the Church I learned with a toddler son aching for his love from a divorce. Oh, how I felt that connection of hurt and worry. You could say, “I was in the right place at the right time” but I knew I was in God’s Place at God’s Time. I gave him a prayer card and shared how much God loves him and his boy and the boy’s mom. I said Christ’s Arms are always open where you can find pressures relieved by confession and oneness receiving the Eucharist He offered us to touch His Truth abiding in Communion with His Will.

His laugh became real and his smile was pure thanksgiving as many of us do when ache for commonality in sharing the burdens of life’s disappointment as well as gains. I pleaded with him to make the connection with his child in God celebrating his Catholic Roots with pride centered on Christ’s love and mercy. “Place God First” I said. “All else will fall into place.” Here, is where humanity must begin again and again and again lifting every generation to love God’s Son celebrating our only lifeline to Heaven and Eternal Life; Jesus! Amen.

This day we celebrate the ride of a colt Jesus took with palms a fanning where the Son of God in His Mercy of Grace given in His Spirit also left us the physicalness of His Body and Blood in such a Way that only by real faith will you come to understand the real presence of Christ’s Body and Blood as commanded by Him soon after the ride at the Last Supper.  Where Jesus gave us the right to be sanctified, searched and soothed by the mystery of God’s Grace.

“He took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My Body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of Me.” Luke 22:19

I often wonder why the beauty of the Mass and its Truth Centered Acclamation of Christ’s Command by God’s Word is not celebrated more in other Christian churches around the world. Your life as much as your worship is centered on Jesus, right? His Body given to us is how we become even closer to Christ’s energy, enthusiasm and efforts of the Father’s Will. Be in the right place at the right time always by living in God’s Place all the time by practice, prayer and proclaiming a life in Christ receiving the Eucharist as often as you can. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today we can live in humility being willing to serve by our love of Your Son. Day 6 of a Novena for Joelle Metro. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 66:16-17 I chant, ” Come and hear, all you who fear God, while I recount what has been done for me.

Romans 8:28

Abiding in God’s Will He would shout– Palm Sunday Ride Luke 19:28-40

Jerusalem drew near

Jesus showed no fear

The B&B called near

The Mount of Olives to steer

Two Disciples He sent to abide

Into the village to find the hide

Of a colt tethered to a pole

The Master has needs you know

How the colt which has never been sat

He will climb upon to enter His last

The Jerusalem that will soon call Him a rat

On the road people fanned Him as they gasp

Praising God aloud with joy

The King was announced with noise

A King coming in God’s Name

Glory and honor announced without shame

Some Pharisees gave him some lip

Rebuke Your Disciples they quipped

In reply it was hard to deny

His Omnipotence reigning in the sky

Jesus offered the Truth to be out

Abiding in God’s Will He would shout

The praise of the Father’s He’d rout

“I tell you, if they keep silent the stones will cry out!”

Seek poetry of living by God’s Grace of faith, hope and charity!

No longer shall they defile themselves with their idols, their abominations, and all their transgressions. I will deliver them from all their apostasy through which they sinned. I will cleanse them so that they will be my people, and I will be their God. Ezekiel 37:23

Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing, nor do you consider that it is better for you that one man should die instead of the people, so that the whole nation may not perish.” He did not say this on his own, but since he was high priest for that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation, and not only for the nation, but also to gather into one the dispersed Children of God. John 11:49-52

Ezekiel 37:21-28, Jeremiah 31:10, 11-12, 13 & John 11:45-57

So God comes along and says, “I know you are a sinful people. In My Mercy I will deliver you from the sin you have disrespected Me with gathering all establishing peace by forgiveness as one family of God.” He would give us Himself as a Savior to recognize freedom and grant communion fortified by His Grace. He Who was sinless He made sin to “Die for all” taking away the sins of the world. Ultimately we must realize God has planned Redemption from the beginning of time knowing free will would lead to lusting flesh, greed and pride. Now the thing is this really happened and we seem to have crossed the threshold of denial drenched in the abominations and transgressions humanity ignores. If only the people would come to repent as each of us have in our hearts and truly live Christ in your every desire then we’d overcome the ugliness of the world living alive in God’s Eternal Grace.

We learn today the high priest Caiaphas “prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation” allowing the Will of God to be evident on humanity’s everlasting heartbeat. For all Eternity God has rectified the world to Himself allowing all to know forgiveness and live for faith, hope and love abiding in charity to unify the world. He has gathered in the faithful to create a people of Good Will. I believe this is still possible even as the brashness of sin’s disrespect is illuminated in every avenue of life.

The feeling of despair you live in your heart is the absence of charity in your soul from the actions of living in Truth. Families  have to establish dialogue of love and compassion together teaching our children the joy of charity’s grace. Be not afraid of reading the Bible with family and discussing the questions God places on your heart. Seek poetry of living by God’s Grace of faith, hope and charity! Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today we gather with Your Children of God to live in the poetry of life’s Truth. Day 5 of a Novena for Joelle Metro. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm70:6 I chant, ”I  am miserable and poor. God, come to me quickly! You are my help and deliverer. LORD, do not delay!” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,
Thomas Cruz†Wiggins

Romans 8:28

His Will not ignored but accomplished to please– John 11:45-57

Lazarus is raised

People want to obey

The new prophet of the day

Jesus would have to pay

This according to the Pharisees

Convened the Sanhedrin to please

The Jews wanting Him to leave

Kill Him before I get down on my knees

Do you want the Romans to seize

Our land and children to appease

Because many adore His disease

The High Priest knew how to relieve

Nothing you know will is better to adore

We must kill the one for the many to implore

A nation will survive by His sacrifice for sure

Gathering the Children of God never ignored

Evidence was gathered to cure His disease

Soon Death on a Cross by the Father’s increase

His Will not ignored but accomplished to please

No longer Jesus walk amongst the Jews until Passover agrees

Unknowingly soon cleansed by Christ’s Blood on their knees

Grace in every hidden obstacle to overcome all by His Love.

Sing to the LORD, praise the LORD, For He has rescued the life of the poor from the power of the evildoers! Jeremiah 20:13

I love you, LORD, my strength, LORD, my rock, my fortress, my deliverer, My God, my rock of refuge, my shield, my saving horn, my stronghold! Praised be the LORD, I exclaim! I have been delivered from my enemies. Psalm 18: 2-4

If I do not perform My Father’s Works, do not believe Me; but if I perform them, even if you do not believe Me, believe the Works, so that you may realize [and understand] that the Father is in Me and I am in the Father. John 10:37-38

Jeremiah 20:10-13, Psalm 18 & John 10:31-42

There is a beauty in calling on the LORD that lifts your soul to heights of exuberating joy if we’d just take the time to worship Him in every thought, action and deed. Jeremiah was overwhelmed with actions of people who deceived him filling his heart with sorrow making his life complete terror where his only recourse was to trust in God’s Omnipotence of faith, hope and love. I’m sure many of us feel this from time-to-time or even daily by the life we lead in seclusion from His Word.

More than anything else Jeremiah trusted the LORD to guide him in days of worry and troubles as he lived to watch Jerusalem fall. We too live to watch our homes and family’s fall apart from the lack of obedience to living for God’s Truth. We many times begin to stop believing in the Works Christ does to your heart and life’s love of Truth opting instead for selfish things to crumble the foundation of a family in fright.

We must believe with all our heart and soul that God has a reason for everything preparing not for our own time but that of God’s Time which is endless, everlasting and eternal directing us to His Grace by practice, prayer and preaching. If only we’d slow down and allow God’s Time to be our time living in passion, peace and persistence of God’s Truth in every aspect of our lives, we’d find His Grace in every hidden obstacle to overcome all by His Love. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today to exclaim our love for Your Word by the life we lead in Truth. Day 4 of a Novena for Joelle Metros. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD, grant us constancy that we may be willing to stand by those in need. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
Thomas Cruz†Wiggins
†Spirit led God inspired Christ fed†
Romans 8:28

Everything John said is True about Him to abide– John 10:31-42

Stones would fly in their despise

Jesus gave them Truth they denied

The Works of the Father Truth complied

Why stone Christ if He’s the Apple of God’s Eye?

Which Work would make you throw the dirt?

The stone of sin each of you do know to flirt

The Jews said it was blasphemy not the Works

To stone You because You think you’re God you quirk

Jesus replied doesn’t your law say “You are gods” to blame?

By the Word of God does the Word of God came

Scripture can’t be set aside in the midst of your shame

He Who sent Me consecrated Me for His Works you defame

Works aren’t performed believe Me not

But in Works believe Him by Truth in lots

The Father is in Me less I should rot

They could not arrest Him as He escaped from the spot

Returning across the Jordan where John Baptized

Many came and went to be eternalized

Saying John performed no signs as Christ we can’t deny

Everything John said is True about Him to abide

God’s Redeeming Covenant of Love established to live forever in Him.

I will maintain My Covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you throughout the ages as an Everlasting Covenant, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you. Genesis 17:7

You do not know Him, but I know Him. And if I should say that I do not know Him, I would be like you a liar. But I do know Him and I keep His Word. John 8:55

Genesis 17:3-9, Psalm 105 & John 8:51-59

God tells us time-and-time again we can know Him only by keeping His Word close to our hearts enveloped in our souls captivated by our thoughts evident in our actions. We display the Word of God in every step we take knowing this love of God we exhibit will perturb some around you by a sneer or blatant verbal responses but I implore you to indeed expose your real self by the clothes you were or the stickers and license plates on the bumper of our car. Consecrate your life to Christ’s Purpose and you will find yourself consoling the sick, comforting the lonely while feeding and clothing the homeless.

The real Evangelization humanity needs is the grass roots efforts of charity serving the poor awakening their spirit to find riches beyond their wildest imaginations in the Truth of God’s Word. The Everlasting Covenant must be taught over-and-over again through every generation growing in God’s Redeeming Covenant of Love established to live forever in Him as He is you by the Covenant Promise you make with Him. Yes, I too was a liar because I didn’t “know Him and I keep His Word.”

My heart ached like many of you reading our study today and we think it’s too hard to follow Jesus. It’s too hard to give our all to a God we think we can’t see or touch. Day-by-day we must touch the pages of God’s Covenant enlightening our thoughts, actions and deeds to accomplish a moment-by-moment communion with God’s Will. It’s hard to give up selfish wants for charity occurring in people unknown living as liars renouncing Redemption living in haste. You can be Truth by living in God’s Word abiding in faith, hope and love giving charity in words as well as your actions. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today Your Covenant is our life’s desire engaging our hearts to live for You. Day 3 of a Novena for Joelle Metros. Day 9 of a Novena of prayers for New Jersey Emmaus AND Pope Francis. Praying for Kairos. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca and Tom K. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD, grant us trust in You that when our time on earth is ended our spirits may come to You without delay. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
Thomas Cruz†Wiggins
†Spirit led God inspired Christ fed†
Romans 8:28

Before Abraham came to be “I AM” I can’t deny– John 8:51-59

The Jews sit and listened to Him

Jesus instructed by Truth He’d blend

Into Amens by His Word to no death to attend

You will never die in keeping My Truth to defend

Oh, the Jews thought He was possessed

Abraham died as the Prophets who are in rest

Yet you say keeping Your Word no death

Greater than Abraham whose death we confess?

The Jews were asking who do you think You are?

Christ answered someone who has met Abraham a far

The One you all say He is our God in part

Not living His Word makes you a liar from the start

If I said the same things as each of you

Death would be My have to pursue

But I know the Father Who I keep His Word True

Not Glory from Me but Glory from the Father My due

How can You have seen Abraham they replied

Less than 50 and full of pride?

Christ gave an amen amen to truly chide

Before Abraham came to be “I AM” I can’t deny

Picking up stones to kill and deny

The Christ hid in Truth by the Father’s Will concise

Leaving the temple area safe in complete disguise

Redemption for sin would soon come to those who comply
