COME  AND  LISTEN  TO  ME  EVERY  DAY

Dear Paul, Rita and Friends,
Good morning on another perfect day. The sun is shining bright as I
write this in the early morning. I thank the Lord for His goodness to
us. I will go to Petit Rocher, N.B. today. I will spend tomorrow with a
group there talking to them about contemplative prayer and our Blessed
Mother. I will celebrate Holy Mass with them and anoint the sick. I
thank the Lord for curing my mother. She does not bleed anymore and she
is getting stronger. She walks as before and she came to the chapel for
the celebration of the Holy Eucharist yesterday. She is still weak but
she is getting stronger every day. Thank you for your prayers.

In my prayer with Jesus this morning, He spoke saying, "Melvin, my love,
you are my brother. I live in your heart where I have made my home. I
desire to live in the hearts of all of you. Open your heart to me. Some
do not want me near them because they are attached to sinful ways. If
they said they love me, they would live a lie because in fact they
follow their own wills which is contrary to mine. My brothers and
sisters, I am your greatest friend and I do not come to you empty
handed. I am your Saviour who died for you. I always come with my gifts
of peace and joy. I give you the strength to overcome the temptations of
the evil one and the power to do good. Your pride is an obstacle to our
friendship. It has to be tempered by humility, the virtue which will
bring you back to reality. I am the Son of God and I am meek and humble
of heart. Conform yourself to me and you will grow in your relationship
with me. I will teach you the way you should go. Without me you would
never reach your destination for it is dark and you would get lost. Stay
with me every day and I will lead you by the hand. I have much to teach
you so open your ear to my voice. Come and listen to me every day. I
have the words of everlasting life; I will tell you the truth. I love
you."

Jesse's words today are so practical and so necessary for us. He is so
direct and goes to the important matter without beating around the bush.
He calls us to practice humility for He knows how proud we are. He
always comes to us with His great gifts of peace and joy. He is ready to
teach us the truth if we will listen. Let us take His advice to heart
and follow it.

There will be no message tomorrow but I hope to send you one on
Thursday. Please continue to pray for Wayne Boudreau who is suffering
very much. I spoke to him last evening and he told me he was in much
pain. May the Lord cure him.

May the Lord bless us all and give us the strength to follow Him every
day.
 
Father Melvin
