Signs of the Times  

    "I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse.  Choose life, then."
                                                                                                               Deuteronomy 30:19



    "When God, in the beginning, created man, he made him subject to his own free choice.  If you choose you can keep the commandments; it is loyalty to do his will.  There are set before you fire and water; to whichever you choose, stretch forth your hand.  Before man are life and death, whichever he chooses shall be given him....Choose life!"
                                                                                                         Sirach 15:14-17



      "Brothers and sisters: If God is for us, who can be against us?  He did not spare his own Son, but handed him over for us all, how will he not also give us everything else along with him?  Who will bring a charge against God's chsen ones  It is God who acquits us.  Who will condemn?  It is Christ Jesus who died, rather, was raised, who also is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us.  What will separate us from the love of Christ?  Will anguish, or distress, or persecution or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword?  As it is written:  'For your sake we are being slain all the day; we are looked upon as sheep to be slaughtered.'

     No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us.  For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creaure will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."
                                                                                                Romans 8:31-39


       O LORD OUR GOD, YOU HAVE REPLANTED ON OUR EARTH THE GARDEN LOST IN EDEN, AND YOU HAVE SENT A NEW GARDENER TO TILL THE SOIL PLOUGHED BY THE WOOD OF THE CROSS.  HE WHO IS BOTH THE FARMER AND THE SEED WATERED THE EARTH WITH HIS LIFE'S BLOOD SHED FOR OUR REDEMPTION.  MAKE US GROW IN HIS LIKENESS BY THE POWER OF HIS WORD DWELLING IN OUR HEARTS.  THROUGH THE SAME CHRIST OUR LORD...AMEN.


     (SPECIAL PRAYER GIVEN DURING THESE TIMES:)


    "Eternal Father, I offer you all the Wounds of your dearly Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, the pains and agonies of His Most Sacred Heart and His Most Precious blood, which gushed forth from all His Wounds, in reparation for my sins and those of the whole world.  
   Amen. (3X)

     ["All who adore My Precious Blood, console My Father who loves His Son the most.  As you adore My Precious Blood, the pains of My Sacred Heart are lessened.  The Sorrowful Heart of My Mother will also be consoled.
      Children, adore My Precious Blood always and offer it to My Father for mercy.  Hear this prayer.  Pray it always in reparation for the sins of the world.  Pray it three times; each time you pray it, I assure you the Divine Mercy will multiply.
       Pray it always and many times a day, since you are living in ungodly days.  Pray it so that you shall be safe from the purification fire.  Children, make it known to the whole world...."]
