The Word

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden,

and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you and learn of me…

for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

(Matt. 11: 28-30)

Prayer = Hope

"Look at the birds in the sky. They do not plant or harvest; they gather nothing into barns. Yet your Father provides for them. Consider the lilies of the field. Solomon in all his glory was not clothed as beautifully as they are. Will not God provide for you also? Do not worry about what you will eat or drink, or what you will wear. Your Father knows what you need. Seek first the kingdom of God, and everything else you need will be given to you."
Matthew 6: 26-33

HOPE can spring!

Luminous Praising of The Truth

Victory over death -
Prophecy fulfilled -
The Promise of Everlasting Life
In The Holy of Holies -
With Our Creator

It is relatively easy
for the skeptical mind
and the unbelieving heart
to dismiss all of this
as just another fable;
yet the evidence is all there.

If this is all but a fable,
why does the Name of Jesus-Christ
strike fear in the hearts of demons

Then again, one has to admit
the very existence of demons
in the first place
in order to accept this bit of evidence
but it truly shouldn't be all too hard at all
for a mere stroll around the block
will fetch all the evidence that you need
in order to prove THAT...!
There are far more evil souls among us today
than are angelic, saintly ones...
And those evil souls that have truly
gone off the deep end
will tremble at their core
when you'll invoke Christ;
for THEY know Who He Is
better than the most devout-in-appearance
lukewarm church-going "believer"...
Now don't read me all wrong here;
I am not encouraging the career choice
of demonic evolution - at all.
Stay as you are:
still a redeemable sinner
that is bad enough as it is!
And bad enough as it needs to get...!

JESUS Was Born
He Was Sent
to Redeem us all.
His Coming,
Triumph over death
As His Return
Are Prophesied
By more than a single source.
The mere existence of evil
corroborates His Holiness
and His Being Our Messiah.
Our Saviour.
Our Redeemer.

It has gotten to a point, nowadays,
that His Suffering,
Sacrifice On The Cross
for all of our sins
is nearly not enough -
as the Adversary has sin
at an all-time high
across the globe.

That is why there is still
so much suffering on the planet:
we all have to chip in, too -
suffer our lot
as Simeon, the man who was called
out of the blue
to help Christ Carry His Cross
all the way to Golgotha.
We have to carry the Cross too.
Until the end of time -
until He Returns.
Sword in His Holy Hand -
to chastise those evil ones
who will never accept Him
as their Lord of lords
and King of kings.

KING OF KINGS
LORD OF LORDS
AND THE WAY
HE IS
whether they accept Him
or not.

Profession de foi : Je crois en dieu

Je crois en Dieu, le Père tout-puissant,
créateur du ciel et de la terre.

Et en Jésus-Christ, son Fils unique,
notre Seigneur,
qui a été conçu du Saint-Esprit,
est né de la Vierge Marie,
a souffert sous Ponce Pilate,
a été crucifié, est mort et a été enseveli,
est descendu aux enfers,
le troisième jour est ressuscité des morts,
est monté aux cieux,
est assis à la droite de Dieu
le Père tout-puissant,
d'où il viendra juger
les vivants et les morts.

Je crois en l'Esprit Saint,
à la sainte Eglise catholique,
à la communion des saints,
à la rémission des péchés,
à la résurrection de la chair,
à la vie éternelle.

Amen.

+++

I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth.

And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord:
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended into hell;
the third day he rose again from the dead;
he ascended into heaven;
sitteth at the right hand of God
the Father Almighty;
from thence he shall come to judge
the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy Catholic Church,
the communion of Saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.

Amen.

+++

Creio em Deus Pai, todo-poderoso,
Criador do céu e da terra.

E em Jesus Cristo,
seu único Filho
nosso Senhor.
Que foi concebido pelo poder do Espírito Santo,
nasceu da Virgem Maria,
padeceu sob Pôncio Pilatos,
foi crucificado, morto e sepultado,
desceu a mansão dos mortos,
ressuscitou ao terceiro dia,
subiu aos Céus
está sentado à direita de Deus Pai Todo-Poderoso,
donde há de vir julgar os vivos e mortos.

Creio no Espírito Santo,
na santa Igreja católica,
na comunhão dos santos,
na remissão dos pecados,
na ressurreição da carne,
na vida eterna.

AMÉM!

Of The Number THREE...

They say that death comes in THREES.
Here are other things that come threes as well:

Three uncertainties in your life are dreams, success and fate.

Three gems of your life are love, self-esteem and true friends.

Three irrevocable things in your life are time, word and change.

(That triad courtesy of D'Jai.)

Three certainties of life: pain, death and taxes
(not in that order - obviously.)

Three gifts of life: joy, bliss and serenity.

Three Ways to attain Bliss: The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.

And one has to praise, give thanks and worship (three things - again) such an Omnipotent Creator Who Is A Trinity and One True God, all at once. AMEN!

He Who Created the Heavens, the Earth, the Seas (three!)

He Who Made it so that man, woman and child (three!) make up the nucleus that procreates and furthers the human race.

He Who Gave us the nature to inhabit, the air to breathe and the water to satiate ourselves.

He Who Blesses, Elevates and Empowers His faithful -
as surely as He Castigates, Crushes and Decimates the evil ones.

GOD IS ALL
GOD IS EVERYWHERE
GOD IS GOD

AMEN!

Saluting All Saints Today

We salute the saints of yesterday...
The saints of tomorrow...
The few saints left around - today.

All of those who chose to be like Him:

And let us thank God for having sent them at all...!

When He Did.
The Way He Did.

The Lord Has Mysterious Ways we cannot comprehend.
Amen!

...

''I will extol the LORD at all times;
his praise will always be on my lips.

My soul will boast in the LORD;
let the afflicted hear and rejoice.

Glorify the LORD with me;
let us exalt his name together!''

~Psalm 34:1-3
