Gospel: John 14:23-29 ©
A peace the world cannot give is my gift to you
Jesus said to his disciples:
‘If anyone loves me he will keep my word,
and my Father will love him,
and we shall come to him and make our home with him.
Those who do not love me do not keep my words.
And my word is not my own:
it is the word of the one who sent me.
I have said these things to you while still with you;
but the Advocate, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in my name,
will teach you everything
and remind you of all I have said to you.
Peace I bequeath to you, my own peace I give you,
a peace the world cannot give,
this is my gift to you.
Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.
You heard me say: I am going away, and shall return.
If you loved me you would have been glad to know that I am going to the Father,
for the Father is greater than I.
I have told you this now before it happens,
so that when it does happen you may believe.’
Picture
A picture of Our Blessed Mother superimposed upon Jesus on His Cross, Our Mother feels the pain in her Heart that her Son Jesus is feeling.
“My children,
In my Immaculate Heart I felt the pain of my dying Son, just as Simeon foretold all those years ago, my little one’s make my Son’s wounds your own, especially the wound in His Heart for love of Mankind. Please offer up as a living sacrifice all the grief, hurt and pain that you may encounter in your lives along with all the joys and gifts you are given. Your praise, sacrifice, prayer, penance and fasting will make a difference to someone who may not believe, adore, hope or love my Son, and so enable them to turn to God and receive grace to believe, leading them to adore, hope and love my Son Jesus!
I love each of you as my true child and I will always lead you to my Son.
Mary your Mother."
