“Oh, to realize that souls, precious, never dying souls, are perishing all around us, going out into the blackness of darkness and despair, eternally lost, and yet to feel no anguish, shed no tears, know no travail! How little we know of the compassion of Jesus!”-Oswald J. Smith (Evangelical Preacher & Missionary, born in 1890 in Toronto)

“But you shall be named priests of the Lord”-Isaiah 61:6

There is none like Jesus. It’s heartbreaking to realize that there are some that will never know Him. That there are so many compassionate, kind people who will never see Heaven. Because no one goes to Heaven without Jesus.

Let their eternal loss not be because we didn’t share the Gospel with them! And let us pray that our hearts do not harden to their loss!

It’s hard to share the Gospel, especially with those who seem uninterested. But the alternative, Hell, makes it worthwhile-always! One way to think of it is as if we won the lottery and we knew where the next winning ticket was. Wouldn’t we want to tell all those we cared about where it was?

Another way to think about it is that if the person accepts Jesus as their Savior, not only do they go to Heaven, they get to have a “best friend” to walk through their lives with them. Everyday, they will have Jesus to turn to. And Jesus will never let them down. He will love them no matter what! Isn’t that something we want for everyone?

That said, society has made it harder and harder to share the Gospel. Let us pray to have the courage to share it every day-anyway!

When praying the Rosary I saw the most beautiful garden filled with Amazing flowers. Each more beautiful than the last.

I heard Mary, our Blessed Mother, say “Don’t forget how you got here, Pray the Rosary”

Then I saw a freshly dug grave with a Cross at its head.

And lastly I saw a bunch of jets flying in formation high in the sky.

All while or shortly after praying the Rosary.

Mary, please Pray for us !

One night while praying the Rosary, I saw a number of African – American young boys in white t-shirts. They had their hands up in front of a storefront. My impression was they weren’t there to harm anyone, they needed help!

God does not care what color we are; He loves us all 🙂

All while praying the Rosary.

^” Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the Lord come upon you, before the day of the Lord’s anger come upon you.”-Zephaniah 2:2

^” Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the Lord’s anger.”-Zephaniah 2:3

Pray & Be Ready!

A tall Lady with someone behind her covering her eyes, fell forward or was she pushed? From a high precipice. Either way, she fell.

Then I saw a soldier sitting on top of a store canopy. He held a long gun.

Later, I saw a number of American Flags each waving on their own poll.

All of this, I saw while praying the Rosary.

“I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;
They shall never hold their peace day or night.
You who make mention of the Lord, do not keep silent,”-Isaiah 62:6

All who know the Lord are “watchmen”. In this verse, it would appear that God is talking of Jerusalem, but this applies to us all.

We know that real safety and real joy lies in God, and in the Hope and the Help that He gives us. We should never “hold our peace” about that!

And we know that the best information about our Lord is in God’s Word (Bible), and we should never remain silent on that either!

Difficult days, or should we say “harder” days are coming, our Hope, indeed our Help comes from the Lord, and only the Lord. If we keep silent, then we deny the other person that same Hope and Help. And we deny them a future in Heaven 🙂

God calls on us Not To Keep Silent-so we need to share the Gospel and God’s great love for all of us. And when we see danger ahead, we need to share that too!

And God Loves us 🙂

“Brothers and sisters, I want you to know about the gifts of the Holy Spirit.   You know that at one time you were unbelievers. You were somehow drawn away to worship statues of gods that couldn’t even speak.   So I want you to know that no one who is speaking with the help of God’s Spirit says, “May Jesus be cursed.” And without the help of the Holy Spirit no one can say, “Jesus is Lord.”

“There are different kinds of gifts. But they are all given to believers by the same Spirit.  There are different ways to serve. But they all come from the same Lord.   There are different ways the Spirit works. But the same God is working in all these ways and in all people.”

^“The Holy Spirit is given to each of us in a special way. That is for the good of all.  To some people the Spirit gives a message of wisdom. To others the same Spirit gives a message of knowledge. To others the same Spirit gives faith. To others that one Spirit gives gifts of healing.   To others he gives the power to do miracles. To others he gives the ability to prophesy. To others he gives the ability to tell the spirits apart. To others he gives the ability to speak in different kinds of languages they had not known before. And to still others he gives the ability to explain what was said in those languages.  All the gifts are produced by one and the same Spirit. He gives gifts to each person, just as he decides.”

-1 Corinthians 12:1-11

If you don’t know which Gift the Holy Spirit has given you, ask Him; He will be happy to show you :). And then don’t waste it, use it!

“For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us”

We all sin. And the only way to forgiveness for our sins is forgiveness through Jesus Christ. There is no other way.

But because God loves us, He sent the Holy Spirit to be in us. So each and every person who has accepted Jesus as their Savior has the Help of the Holy Spirit on their journey Home. One thing the Holy Spirit does for us, is He helps us to avoid temptation and warns us before we sin.

However, if we ignore the Holy Spirit’s warnings long enough, the Holy Spirit will stop warning us. And we can find ourselves living a life of sin and thinking that our choices are okay, but they are not. Sin is sin, whether we choose to believe it or not.

And the only one that defines sin is God.

However, because God loves us; He gave us His Word (The Holy Bible) so that we would be able to learn what choices are acceptable in God’s eyes 🙂

And the Holy Spirit teaches us as well!

This life is a journey. A journey Home. And the Holy Spirit is here to help us on that journey 🙂

So pray, “Holy Spirit please abide in me”, Thank You 🙂
