Trusting in the Providence of God

Sr. JosephMary f.t.i. — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 20:00:24 +0000

Ave Maria Meditations

Following Jesus

Our primary responsibility, the main object of all our efforts, must be the transformation of ourselves, of our hearts and our lives. Insofar as we succeed at this, we promote the spreading of God’s kingdom for by doing this, we are at the same time disposing ourselves to help others and contribute even further to the spreading of the kingdom. What this means in the concrete is that each of us must faithfully fulfill the duties of our daily life.

The circumstances and people that God each day presents to us through his providence offer us the opportunity to perform action after action in proof of our dedication to the kingdom. Whether we are married and taking care of home and family, or studying in school, or working in an office or a factory or on a farm, whether we are dedicated to the priestly or religious life, matters little. In whatever we do, we must always seek first the kingdom of God. That is, all of our actions of every day must be accepted as from God and referred back to him, must be done in a way that fulfills his will, for in this way alone is the kingdom of God promoted and spread upon earth.

Fr. Walter J. Ciszek, S.J.

Father Walter Ciszek authored the books : He Leadeth Me and With God in Russia. He survived the Siberian Gulag. This holy Jesuit was born in 1904 and died in 1984 on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. He was ordained in 1937 and granted his great desire to go as a priest to Russia. Later he would be captured and convicted as a ‘spy’ and sent to Siberia. There in that place of suffering, he was a priest to those sent there. He would finally be released in 1955 and was able to get word to his family with whom he had not been able to contact since 1939. He would not be able to return to the United States until 1963. Through all his years of suffering, he learned to trust totally in the Providence of God in every situation; it was a lesson learned the hard way.

Video – Greatest Marian Message of 20th Century – Dr. Miravalle: Mcasts75

apostolate — Thu, 13 May 2010 14:35:43 +0000

MaryCast Specials #75 ( 10min) Play – Dr. Mark Miravalle explains how the message of the Fatima apparition is the ‘Grandmother’ of Marian messages since all earlier apparitions look forward to Fatima and all subsequent ones look back to it. He focuses on the quintessential message of Fatima that was given to Lucia on July 13th where Our Lady asks for prayers and reparation to save souls from Hell. The apparition continues with a vision of Hell and the suffering of souls there and then a prophecy of the end of World War I, then the Russian Revolution, the spread of Communism, World War II and the annihilation of whole nations. The apparition ends with her request to consecrate Russia to her Heart, do the 1st Saturday devotions and to say the Fatima Prayer at the end of each decade of the Rosary:

O my Jesus,
Forgive us ours sins,
save us from the fires of Hell,
lead all souls to Heaven,
especially those most in need of thy mercy.

Dr. Mark stresses that not all of these prophecies have come to past yet, especially the annihilation of nations. The best way to prevent this is to encourage more people to head her requests and to ask for the declaration of the 5th Marian Dogma.

Yan Bielek is a man who lived 30 years under the errors of Russia in his native country of Czechoslovakia; socialism. In socialism the government tries to control your soul.

“If people attend to my requests, Russia will be converted and the world will have peace. If not, she [Russia] will scatter her errors throughout the world, provoking wars and persecutions of the Church.

Prayers, Penance for Russia & Ukraine – Mar 05 – Homily – Fr Ignatius

apostolate — Sat, 05 Mar 2022 12:52:50 +0000

Fr Ignatius gives the homily at Bloomington, IN on Mar 05, 2022, the First Saturday in March, on how Our Lady of Fatima told us to pray for Russia and how the bishops of Ukraine during the war between Ukraine and Russia under the initiative of the faithful are asking for the concentration of both Ukraine and Russia for the return of peace. This is especially the case since it is so hard to not hate your enemies in such a war and there are many people who will die in hatred and that is a tuff way to meet our maker.

Fatima and the Power of Mary – Mar 25 – Homily – Fr Terrance

apostolate — Fri, 25 Mar 2022 11:02:48 +0000

Fr Terrance gives the homily at Bloomington, IN on Mar 25, 2022, on how the Consecration of Russia to Immaculate Heart of Mary, as asked for by her at Fatima, demonstrates her power.

Notes:

Mary does the opposite of Eve

She’s the Coredeemer in 2 ways, her fiat, and participation in His suffering undoing Eve’s transgression,

This makes her our Mediatrix, a privilege given by God

Mark Miravalle on the importance of Consecration to Russia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5LMTYkwXAY

Consecration has already been done validly in 1984

But why the reconsecration? It is a public acknowledgment of her role as Mediatrix

But why the Pope? because he is the Spiritual Father of the world.

The people of Russia and Ukraine need to cooperate with the grace of the consecration. This is where our prayers come in

Ave Maria!
