Jesus teaches us:
The Greatest Commandment, is to Love God with all your heart, mind, and
soul. The second is similar, that is, to Love your neighbor as yourself!
Come you Blessed of my Father, and enter into the Kingdom prepared for you
from the beginning of time. When I was hungry, you fed me. When I was naked you
clothed me. When I was in prison you visited me. When I was sick, you comforted
me. - And you will ask: Lord, when did I see you hungry and feed you, or naked
and clothed you, or in prison and visited you, or sick and conforted you?
- When you did it for the least of my brothers, you did it for me! -
Ask, and you shall receive! Seek and you shall find! Knock and the door shall
be opened! What father amoung you gives his son a snake when he ask for a fish,
or a scorpion when he asks for an egg. - If you who are sinners know how to give
what is good to your children, how much more will your Heavenly Father give the
Holy Spirit to those who ask of Him!
St. Peter once asked: Lord how many times must I forgive my brother who sins
against me, seven times? Our Lord replied, not seven times, but 7 times 70.
Come to Me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take
my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and
you will find rest for yourselves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Jesus said: If you love me, you will obey my commandments.
Have I not been with you for so long a time, and you still do not know me.
Whoever has seen me, has seen the Father. - Whoever hears my word and
believes in the One who sent me, has eternal life, and will not come
to condemnation, but has passed from death to life.
Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and
follow me.
Thus it is written that the Son of Man would suffer, and rise from the dead on the third
day. And that repentance, for the forgiveness of sins, would be preached in his name
to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem. - Go therefore, and make disciples of all the
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe all that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, until
end of time.
Dear Lord, imprint your words of life into our hearts, minds, and souls, so that in every moment of our lives,
we may be focused to your loving call to us. And, in responding to your call, we may share your message,
mercy, and love with all our brothers and sisters.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him might
not perish, but have eternal life.
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the
world, but that the world might be saved through Him. Whoever believes in Him will not be
condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not
believed in the name of the only
Son of God.
And this is the verdict, that the light came into the world, but people perferred darkness to the
light, because their works were evil. For those who do evil hate the light, and do not go toward
the light, so that their works might not be exposed.
But those who live the truth come to the light, so that their works may be clearly seen as done in God.
O dear Holy Mother, lead us to
your dear Son, our Lord, Jesus.
O dear Jesus, guide our Families
in the ways of your Holy Family.
