A book of prayers to the Holy Face of Jesus

3/9/23 Be humility seeking grace  Count blessings not minutes  Live in the precious present  And the vastness of God’s Love and Mercy   Measure only the immeasurable awesomeness of Gods power and glory  Be humility seeking grace    Zephaniah 2:3  (RSV)"Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land,    who do his commands;seek righteousness, seek humility;    perhaps you may be hidden    on the day of the wrath of the Lord."

3/9/23  Lord, I seek to be a drop in your Ocean of Mercy.  Fuse me into your Divine and Perfect Love!  Merge me into your grace and peace,  so that I may spread the effects of your Flame of Love of this fallen humanity.  With docility and love I wish to be Your Face, Your Voice, Your Heart, and Your Precious Healing Hands.  I pray fervently for this grace,  to channel your love and mercy,  Your words of truth and divinity,    So that all will experience the Divine Love of the Father and the perfect charity that your Passion made manifest!  Let me be a visible sign of your presence by my thoughts, words and deeds  of love, joy and sincerity, of healing and deliverance to those in need,     and of the sharing of the good news of your promised return in glory!     1 John 4:4-12 (RSV) "You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.   They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world,  and the world listens to them.  We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us;  but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit the Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Falsehood."God’s Love and Ours"Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God.  Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.    Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.    This is how God showed his love among us:  He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.   This is love: not that we loved God,   but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.   Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.   No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another,  God lives in us and his love is made complete in us."   

3/6/23 The veil has been lifted for us, O you remnant!  You will recognize him as Mary Magdalene in the garden when he spoke to her.  “I know mine and they know me,  They hear my voice”You will recognize him as his disciples did on the road to Emmaus in the powerful preaching  and interpretation of His Word, and on the breaking of the bread!  The veil is lifted O you remnant and the countenance of his Holy Face has been made known to you!  Be the reflection of Christ now to all you meet and let the light of his countenance,  his most Holy Face drive the darkness and the blindness to lift the veil for others   and reveal the light of Christ in all of us!  It is in the voice of reason and truth of God, of love and his law!  It is in his scripture and in the breaking of bread.  It is in the Voice of the Lord, and his Holy Spirit, spoken through you, O Remnant.    Luke 24:13-35 (DR)“And on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came to the sepulchre,  bringing the spices which they had prepared.   And they found the stone rolled back from the sepulchre.  And going in, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.And it came to pass, as they were astonished in their mind at this, behold, two men stood by them, in shining apparel.  And as they were afraid and bowed down their countenance towards the ground, they said unto them:  Why seek you the living with the dead? He is not here, but is risen.  Remember how he spoke unto you, when he was yet in Galilee, Saying:  The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and the third day rise again.  And they remembered his words. And going back from the sepulchre, they told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest." And it was Mary Magdalen and Joanna and Mary of James and the other women that were with them, who told these things to the apostles. And these words seemed to them as idle tales: and they did not believe them. But Peter rising up, ran to the sepulchre and, stooping down, he saw the linen cloths laid by themselves: and went away wondering in himself at that which was come to pass. And behold, two of them went, the same day, to a town which was sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus. And they talked together of all these things which had happened. And it came to pass that while they talked and reasoned with themselves, Jesus himself also, drawing near, went with them. But their eyes were held, that they should not know him. And he said to them: What are these discourses that you hold one with another as you walk and are sad? And the one of them, whose name was Cleophas, answering, said to him: Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things that have been done there in these days? To whom he said: What things? And they said: Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people. And how our chief priests and princes delivered him to be condemned to death and crucified him. But we hoped that it was he that should have redeemed Israel. And now besides all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done. Yea and certain women also of our company affrighted us who, before it was light, were at the sepulchre, And not finding his body, came, saying that they had all seen a vision of angels, who say that he is alive. And some of our people went to the sepulchre and found it so as the women had said: but him they found not. Then he said to them: O foolish and slow of heart to believe in all things, Which the prophets have spoken. Ought not Christ to have suffered these things and so, to enter into his glory? And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded to them in all the scriptures the things that were concerning him. And they drew nigh to the town whither they were going: and he made as though he would go farther. But they constrained him, saying: Stay with us, because it is towards evening and the day is now far spent. And he went in with them. And it came to pass, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread and blessed and brake and gave to them. And their eyes were opened: and they knew him. And he vanished out of their sight. And they said one to the other: Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in the way and opened to us the sc 

3/5/23  The Kingdom of Heaven is upon you!  It is in you and around you!  Seek union with it always.  On earth as it is in heaven.   Ask and you will receive!   Do not underestimate the Power of desire and persistence!  Seek with Passion the Greater Good according to God’s grand design for you and for the salvation of souls  If your desire is not strong enough or efficacious enough in it’s request,  then your persistence will   accomplish what is necessary for God to oblige your humble prayers!  The simple and true, right ordered with persistence and passion wield great power!  This is the Power of the Hail Mary and the rosary!   It gives Glory and honor, blessing and a persistent requestfor Mary’s intercession now and at the hour of our death!Simple and true with humility and persistence, right ordered.  Luke 11:15-20 (DR)"And he said to them: Which of you shall have a friend and shall go to him at midnight and shall say to him:Friend, lend me three loavesBecause a friend of mine is come off his journey to me and I have not what to set before him.  And he from within should answer and say: Trouble me notthe door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot rise and give thee.Yet if he shall continue knocking, I say to youalthough he will not rise and give him because he is his friend; yet, because of his importunity, he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.And I say to you: Ask, and it shall be given you:seek, and you shall find: knock, and it shall be opened to you.For every one that asketh receiveth: and he that seeketh findeth:  and to him that knocketh it shall be opened:And which of you, if he ask his father bread, will he give him a stone? Or a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?Or if he shall ask an egg, will he reach him a scorpion?If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children,how much more will your Father from heaven give the good Spirit to them that ask him?And he was casting out a devil: and the same was dumb.And when he had cast out the devil, the dumb spoke:and the multitudes, were in admiration at it. But some of them said:He casteth out devils by Beelzebub, the prince of devils.And others tempting, asked of him a sign from heaven.But he seeing their thoughts, said to them:Every kingdom divided against itself shall be brought to desolation;and house upon house shall fall.And if Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? Because you say that through Beelzebub I cast out devils.Now if I cast out devils by Beelzebub, by whom do your children cast them out?Therefore, they shall be your judges. But if I by the finger of God cast out devils, doubtless the kingdom of God is come upon you."

Amen.”  “Oh Jesus, through the merits of your Holy Face, have pity on us, and on the whole world”                                                                                    (Three times)  Psalm 106 (107)Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Many Troubles“Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.  Let them say so that have been redeemed by the Lord,  whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy: and gathered out of the countries. From the rising and from the setting of the sun, from the north and from the sea.They wandered in a wilderness, in a place without water: they found not the way of a city for their habitation.They were hungry and thirsty: their soul fainted in them.And they cried to the Lord in their tribulation: and he delivered them out of their distresses.And he led them into the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.For he hath satisfied the empty soul, and hath filled the hungry soul with good things.Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death: bound in want and in iron. Because they had exasperated the words of God: and provoked the counsel of the most High: And their heart was humbled with labours: they were weakened, and there was none to help them. Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.And he brought them out of darkness, and the shadow of death; and broke their bonds in sunder.Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men. Because he hath broken gates of brass, and burst iron bars. He took them out of the way of their iniquity: for they were brought low for their injustices. Their soul abhorred all manner of meat: and they drew nigh even to the gates of death.And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.He sent his word, and healed them: and delivered them from their destructions. Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.And let them sacrifice the sacrifice of praise: and declare his works with joy.They that go down to the sea in ships, doing business in the great waters:These have seen the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.He said the word, and there arose a storm of wind: and the waves thereof were lifted up.They mount up to the heavens, and they go down to the depths: their soul pined away with evils. They were troubled, and reeled like a drunken man; and all their wisdom was swallowed up.And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he brought them out of their distresses.And he turned the storm into a breeze: and its waves were still.And they rejoiced because they were still: and he brought them to the haven which they wished for. Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men. And let them exalt him in the church of the people: and praise him in the chair of the ancients. He hath turned rivers into a wilderness: and the sources of waters into dry ground:A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein. He hath turned a wilderness into pools of waters, and a dry land into water springs.And hath placed there the hungry; and they made a city for their habitation.Anti they sowed fields, and planted vineyards: and they yielded fruit of birth.And he blessed them, and they were multiplied exceedingly:and their cattle he suffered not to decrease. Then they were brought to be few:and they were afflicted through the trouble of evils and sorrow. Contempt was poured forth upon their princes:and he caused them to wander where there was no passing, and out of the way.And he helped the poor out of poverty: and made him families like a flock of sheep.The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and all iniquity shall stop her mouth. Who is wise, and will keep these things; and will understand the mercies of the Lord?”
