Pray for the lost

Notes of meeting on 1 August 2017

Picture of a lake on which raged a tempest and floating on the lake was a man in great difficulty.
Eventually when nearly dead he could see he was being pushed towards an abyss of foaming fire. In his last moments he cried out "My Mother help me, Jesus save me"
Our Lady heard his cry and sent out upon the lake a raft to save him. This raft was made of prayers and sacrifices and all good works of those who loved this man also of those who didn't even know him.
Our Lady herself steered the raft until she got to him. He was in a terrible state of fear but he heaved himself on the raft and collapsed. He woke to find himself bandaged and all his wounds salved and bound. When he looked he was coming into land, a land of great beauty with a great temple atop of a mountain. When he looked at the raft it was Our Lord Jesus upon His Cross, the man had clung to Him until Jesus brought him safe home.

Jesus says:
"Together with My Mother you, your prayers, sacrifices and taking My Eucharist worthily will save souls and save Me from the terrible pain of separation from lost souls.
I your Jesus plead with you that together with My Mother the Most Glorious Virgin Queen of Heaven you will cast your worries aside and pray for the lost.
I Myself will take care of your worries, hand them to Me and as you do as I ask your reward will be great and My Poor Heart will be soothed by your loving actions.
My dear little souls pray for poor souls that My Heart would stop breaking. I weep. I weep.
Jesus."


Sirach 2
¹ My child, if you aspire to serve the Lord, prepare yourself for an ordeal.
² Be sincere of heart, be steadfast, and do not be alarmed when disaster comes.
³ Cling to him and do not leave him, so that you may be honoured at the end of your days.
⁴ Whatever happens to you, accept it, and in the uncertainties of your humble state, be patient,
⁵ since gold is tested in the fire, and the chosen in the furnace of humiliation.
⁶ Trust him and he will uphold you, follow a straight path and hope in him.
⁷ You who fear the Lord, wait for his mercy; do not turn aside, for fear you fall.
⁸ You who fear the Lord, trust him, and you will not be robbed of your reward.
⁹ You who fear the Lord, hope for those good gifts of his, everlasting joy and mercy.
¹⁰ Look at the generations of old and see: whoever trusted in the Lord and was put to shame? Or whoever, steadfastly fearing him, was forsaken? Or whoever called to him and was ignored?
¹¹ For the Lord is compassionate and merciful, he forgives sins and saves in the time of distress.
¹² Woe to faint hearts and listless hands, and to the sinner who treads two paths.

Romans 12 v 1-2
¹ I urge you, then, brothers, remembering the mercies of God, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, dedicated and acceptable to God; that is the kind of worship for you, as sensible people.
² Do not model your behaviour on the contemporary world, but let the renewing of your minds transform you, so that you may discern for yourselves what is the will of God -- what is good and acceptable and mature.
