April 20, 2019
"Lord, our God, you graciously chose St Dymphna as patroness of those afflicted with mental, emotional, and nervous disorders. She is thus an inspiration and a symbol of charity in the thousands who ask her intercession. Please grant, Lord, through the prayers of the pure youthful martyr, relief and consolation to all suffering such trials, and especially those for whom we pray. (Here mention those for whom you wish to pray). We beg you, Lord, to hear the prayers of St. Dymphna on our behalf. Grant all those for whom we pray patience in their sufferings and resignation to your divine will. Please fill them with hope, and grand them the relief and cure they so much desire. We as this through Christ our Lord who suffered agony in the garden. Amen." **********St Dymphna, pray for us!******Dear Lord, help & hear our prayers! ******Have a blessed, prosperous, healthy, safe, faithful, happy & joyous Holy Saturday!

Dear Lord, Forgive me my sins, help me to have the strength, courage, wisdom to deal with stressors at hand, help me Lord, to overcome anxieties from the 24/7 construction, use of heavy machinery, pungent & toxic fumes from an attached neighbor of 7 years, I'm in my home 46 years, a senior citizen, having to make constant repairs due to their destruction of my health & home, under doctors care, due to irreversible lung damage(never smoked in my life), enduring their constant banging, construction, use of heavy machinery & heavy fumes, not even a holy day of obligation is off limits! They use heavy machinery & fumes, banging, loud video games in concurrent with unsavory music, beginning 8:30pm through 12am, to drown out the noise from drilling, sanding, sawing, hammering, nail-guns, crowbars, etc. Having had unlicensed demolition contractors early yesterday morning dismantling & removal of a furnace! Gas company didn't come in at anytime to turn off valves, it seems that neighbors' are themselves removing piping, & other materials, 24/7! Leaving me to endure banging all hours, & endure pungent(skunk, horse manure, marijuana, mulching garbage to name a few odors), acids, very toxic fumes, that I've had to call for assistance from fire, police, emts, gas, electric, contractors, roofers, plumbers, etc to repair & help when I'm overcome by carbon monoxide & other odors, they've cut through my firewalls, buckling walls, floors, ceilings, separating walls, broke through my chimney causing debris to block the flue that I had to have contractors & gas company in to rebuild and repair the chimney! Dear Lord, You know my needs, concerns & stresses, that I am overwhelmed, not able to rest, enjoy peace & harmony of my own home, nor am I able to have a quiet moment with God, no matter what room I'm in! Dear Lord, send me a MIRACLE, someone to help me in my needs, the JUSTICE I'm in need of & do deserve, please help & hear my prayers! HELP ME LORD!

4/20/19: "THE MIRACLE OF BIRTH"
April 20, 2019
"God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good." --GENESIS 1:25*********"THE SMALL WAITING room a the veterinarian's office was crowded with animals and their humans, including me and my two big dogs, Roscoe and Chaucer. They were there to get their nails clipped. The woman next to me held a schnauzer on her lap. "Routine shots," she said. A balding man with a beard stroked his black cat. "Infected chigger bites," he said. One woman was silent, gently patting the tope of a small animal crate, her foot swinging nervously. Finally, the balding man asked, "Is it a cat in there?" "Yes, it's my calico Buffy, and she's been in labor all night," the woman answered. "She's had two, but third one won't come. She arrived on my doorstep one night, pregnant. I'll have her spayed after this, but I'm keeping the kittens." The room was now silent as all heads turned to the dark interior of Buffy's crate. "she's so sweet and such a good mother to the two already born," the owner said, band then suddenly stopped and bent her face to the cage door. "Oh, she's had it! Look, here it is!" Carefully opening the door, we could see the wet, mewing little thing, the size of a hair ball, its mouth making sucking motions. We clapped, cheered, and beamed at each other. I felt tears on my cheeks. Why all the emotion? I wondered. Is it for the woman who took in a homeless feline? For the triumph of the mother cat? Yes and yes. But a deeper emotion showed itself on each face in the waiting room and in me: awe. No matter how small the creature, birth is a miracle!" --SHARI SMYTH************Enjoy a blessed, healthy, safe, happy & Joyous Holy Saturday!

"4/19/19: SHADOW"
April 19, 2019
"When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said, " 'I tell you I have not found such great faith even in Israel.' " --LUKE 7: 9********"MISCHEL HAD SPENT an entire day baking. After frosting twelve dozen cookies, she left them on the kitchen table so the icing could harden before she put them into containers the next day. But when Mischel went to the kitchen the next morning, there was a trail of crumbs from the table to the place where her ninety-pound German shepherd, Shadow, usually eats her treats. Out of the twelve dozen cookies, Shadow had eaten about four. Luckily, she didn't get sick or go into a diabetic coma-or explode! Mischel and her family had acquired Shadow after the dog failed her K-9 training. Shadow had failed because she is terrified of loud noises. She shakes uncontrollably when it thunders; heaven knows what she'd do if she ever heard a gunshot. As big and intimidating as she may appear, Shadow is just a big marshmallow with fur and a sweet tooth. And her personality continues to amaze her people. There are two times in scripture where the Lord Jesus Christ is described as amazed. He was amazed at the great faith of the Gentile centurion who believed Jesus had to speak only a word for his request tp be accomplished. And he was amazed at the indifference and lack of faith he saw in others during the time He taught at the synagogue as a young boy. But Jesus Christ is beyond amazement. He looks at the heart and knows the thoughts of people. He knows us inside and out-not what we might appear to be to others, but who and what we truly are." --KATHERINE DOUGLAS***********Enjoy a blessed & great Good Friday!
