SAVED BY GRACE


My Dear brothers and sisters. We are not saved by the works we do, BUT BY GOD'S UNMEASURABLE GRACE. The sacrifice he made on Calvary once and for ALL is what saves. Jesus Christ Loves you!!! and wants to bring you into that full knowledge of His Love. JESUS I TRUST IN YOU

When a person opens their heart to that "full knowledge" the work done, does not come from their own strength but from the outpouring of His Love which fills their hearts. Once we remain in Christ the outpouring never ceases and thus our hearts overflow. Then the work we do is not one of Ego, but a prayer of love which brings TRANSFORMATION .

John 10 vs 5
I am the vine and you are the branches. As long as you remain in me and I in you, you bear much fruit, but apart from me you can do nothing.
The Saints did the most ridiculous and incredulous things for God, Mother Theresa's Love for humanity was not by any means natural, it was the Supernatural love of her first love "Jesus Christ". All the Saints demonstrated that Supernatural love, but just to name a few of the most popular saints, we have, St. Francis of Assisi, The Apostle St. Paul, St. Claire, and St. Augustine. Once they discovered Jesus Christ, there was no sin, wealth, or suffering big enough that could keep them from HIM. They lived and died for that CRAZY LOVE and became coined "Fools for Christ." Yes, people would laugh, jeer, mock and even run from you. Do not be afraid.
........Psalm 27 "The Lord is my light and salvation whom shall I fear? The lord is the rampart of my life I will not be afraid." ......
Ask your heavenly father to forgive them for they know not what they do and LOVE THEM ANYWAY. Offer your sufferings for the reparation of souls who need God's grace. I meet people everyday in desperate need of His grace. People who do not know God, I am not merely talking about intellectual knowledge of God, I am talking about RELATIONAL KNOWLEDGE, THE INTIMACY THAT IS SHARED BETWEEN HUSBAND AND WIFE.
People need to know who they are in Christ and where they are going and that God has a plan and purpose for them. The rates of depression and suicide are astronomical because people have lost hope, please pray for yourselves and each other.
If you do not believe in God and are having doubts whether Jesus Christ died, rose from the dead and was resurrected and is seated at right hand of the FATHER, then I invite you to pray. Pray and ask for God's mercy and grace to fall upon you, like he did for St. Paul, St. Francis, St. Augustine, and for ME. He will do the same for you too........ "Ask and you shall receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be open. For all those who ask receive and those who seek find." Seek Him with all your heart.
Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet Given to sister Faustina by our Lord Jesus Christ. There is no love greater than His, that He gave his LIFE for you. Sunday April 19th is Divine Mercy Sunday. Please pray for yourselves, co-workers, friends and loved ones because everyone is in need of God's Grace.
These are The Days of Elijah, prepare the way in your hearts for Jesus Christ. Recite the Divine Mercy Chaplet.
