The Words of Jesus of Nazareth

The Promise of the Spirit

His is the breath of truth. The world does not accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you will know him, for he will dwell with you, and in you.

When he has come, he will reveal to the world what is sin, and what is righteousness and judgment. Sin, because you do not believe in me; righteousness, because I go to my Father, and you will not see me; judgment, because the oppressive power of the prince of this world has been broken.

Abba, Father, Lord God, help me, give me the words to express myself. O Lord God I ask that You bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, keeping me from evil and from causing pain. And that in all I do, say and think, I do so in Jesus, for Jesus. In the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, Amen.

When the Holy Rosary is said well, it gives Jesus and Mary more glory and is more meritorious than any other prayer.

Philippians 2:5-11

5  Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,  6  who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,  7  but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.  8  And being found in human form he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross. 
Psalm 22:26-32
Luke 14:15-24

15  When one of those who sat at table with him heard this, he said to him, "Blessed is he who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God!"

Audio books I am listening to and other books or readings I am reading:

The Words of Jesus of Nazareth by Lee Cantelon

Ask and It Is Given, Volume 1: The Law of Attraction Unabridged By Esther Hicks and Jerry Hicks Narrated by Jerry Hicks – Ask and It Is Given, by Esther and Jerry Hicks, which presents the teachings of the nonphysical entity Abraham, will help you learn how to manifest your desires so that you’re living the joyous and fulfilling life you deserve. As you listen, you’ll come to understand how the Universal laws that govern your time/space reality influence your relationships, health issues, finances, career concerns, and more. It’s your birthright to live a life filled with everything that is good, and this audio program will show you how to make it so in every way!

The Pontiff in Winter: Triumph and Conflict in the Reign of John Paul II By John Cornwell Narrated by John Lee – Pope John Paul II is one of the most famous and influential political figures of the world. Now, best-selling author and journalist John Cornwell has written an accessible and provocative portrait of this highly charged figure, focusing primarily on the last five years and the major world events, and scandals within the Church that have impacted the papacy. The result is a thoughtful assessment of John Paul II’s legacy to the Church. In an age when many people see the Catholic Church as an institution in crisis, Cornwell raises the level of debate by posing difficult questions; chief among them is the effectiveness of a system that grants lifetime power to an individual vulnerable to the vicissitudes of aging and illness.

The Words of Jesus of Nazareth

This Generation

Come unto me all who are tired, oppressed, and sick of life, and I will give you wonderful rest! Receive my words and let me teach you, for I am gentle and kind. You will find rest for your souls. That which I ask of you is for your benefit, and that which I demand of you is light.

Abba, Father, Lord God, humbled by reality of myself, thankful for the grace and mercy by which I walk; I know how grateful I am and should be even in the shadows of my walk. For around the corner I know not what awaits, but I know I am not alone and I am. I am in Jesus, seeking the right spirit of forgiveness, understanding with love, in faith, by hope with love. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

If only mortals would learn how great it is to possess divine grace, how beautiful, how noble, how precious. How many riches it hides within itself, how many joys and delights! No one would complain about his cross or about troubles that may happen to him, if he would come to know the scales on which they are weighed when they are distributed to men.

— St. Rose of Lima

Philippians 2:1-4

1  So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any incentive of love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy,  2  complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.  3  Do nothing from selfishness or conceit, but in humility count others better than yourselves.  4  Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 
Psalm 131:1-3

1  O LORD, my heart is not lifted up, my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me. 
Luke 14:12-14

12  He said also to the man who had invited him, "When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your kinsmen or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return, and you be repaid.  13  But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind,  14  and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. You will be repaid at the resurrection of the just."

The Words of Jesus of Nazareth

Disciples and Servants

You call me master and teacher . If I, then, am willing to be your most humble servant, should not you be willing to serve one another as well? I have lived my life as an example before you. Imitate me, and do the same to others as I have done for you.

Abba, Father, Lord God, thankful for Your blessings and for the relationship that I have through Jesus with You in the Spirit; my source of source with my every breath, with my every heart beat. Relationships something that I feel void of, defective, out of place, and out of this world; often unable to relate, accept and connect. From my childhood I fail to see that which others see, and worry too much about that. O that You in Jesus would teach me and help me to only focus on You, and what You see as I look in the mirror with the eyes of the Spirit into my heart. ‘I know You’ve cast my/our sin as far as the east is from the west.’ I need You, we need You to Jesus teach me, teach us, O ‘Jesus can You show me/us  just how far the east is from the west.’ Let this day be a new beginning for me, us and for this nation under You Lord God. ‘Create in me/us a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me/us.’ Reach into the hearts of those that server us as leaders and convict them, as each of us, in the Spirit to overcome ourselves and accept, and chose to keep You first. Let me, let everyone embrace shepherd ship and servitude to our brother and sister in Jesus, as Jesus would lead us. And for the sake of His sorrowful passion have mercy on us and on the whole world. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Let us ask our Lord to work in us and through us, and let us do our utmost to draw Him down into our hearts, for He Himself has said: "Without Me you can do nothing."

Wisdom 3:1-9

1  But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever touch them.  2  In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was thought to be an affliction,  3  and their going from us to be their destruction; but they are at peace.  4  For though in the sight of men they were punished, their hope is full of immortality.  5  Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God tested them and found them worthy of himself;  6  like gold in the furnace he tried them, and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them.  9  Those who trust in him will understand truth, and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy are upon his elect, and he watches over his holy ones. 
Psalm 23:1-6

1  The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want;  2  he makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters;  3  he restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.  4  Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.  5  Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies; thou anointest my head with oil, my cup overflows.  6  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
John 6:37-40

37  All that the Father gives me will come to me; and him who comes to me I will not cast out.  38  For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me;  39  and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.  40  For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day."
