1 Corinthians 12: I will rather boast boast gladly of my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ may dwell with me.

“My beloved, do not seek power in earthly things. Earthly power is fleeting, fickle, and frail. But link your struggles to mine, acknowledging your weakness, and all the power of heaven will be at your disposal. A contrite heart, one whose weakness is exposed, one who is willing to rely on me for everything, that soul is adorned with the power of heaven. Especially in these day, my child, when my dwindling flock is facing persecution on so many fronts–even within the church itself–especially now is my power made perfect in your weakness. Do not be afraid of your weakness, but show it to me and my love will transform it. You may not know in this life all I have accomplished thorough this act, but in eternity it will amaze you to see all that was wrought through your wretchedness offered in love and humility. My child, walk with me at all times and be at peace.”

Lord Jesus, your generosity knows no bounds! What poor gifts we offer, and what rich gifts they purchase. Thanks be to God, generous, merciful, compassionate, and just. Blessed Trinity of love, all glory and praise to you! Amen.

God, come quickly! You are my help and deliverer. LORD, do not delay!

“My child, I am near to you at all times and especially when you are in need. The greater the need, the more I am ready to assist and provide. That is why, my child, you must have great confidence. Yes the time to come will be difficult, but you will see miracles never before seen on earth if you only place your trust in me and not in the fleeting things of this world. Prudence, yes, but generosity, hope, and love above all. Pray with great humility, my child. Show me your need and I will fill it. Go in peace.”

Lord Jesus, you are my hope. I believe, hope, and trust in you. I pray this in the Divine Will in the name of everyone, to give you the glory all creatures owe you. May your kingdom come and your will be done. Amen.

“My beloved, now you feast on many things. But in the time to come you w ill rely on the direct providence of God. Just as he provided manna in the desert, so too will his faithful ones know his generosity and love. My child, do not fear. You may have to suffer for a time, but in eternity all will be dissolved in everlasting happiness. Do not be afraid.”

Lord I am weak. Help me to live as you desire. Father I adore your loving care and generosity. Jesus I trust in you. Amen.

Though flood waters threaten, they will never reach them. You are my shelter; from distress you keep me; with safety you ring me round.

“My beloved, do you see how I have rewarded your trust in me?”

Lord, your goodness and mercy, your generosity and nearness are awesome! All thanks and praise belong to you through Jesus in Mary.

“My child, do not hesitate to trust in me for all you need. My generosity is only limited by your sin, for sin alone can put distance between us. Repent always; confess often, and trust in your beloved Father at all times, for he knows how to give good things to those who love him.”

Lord Abba I give you thanks and praise through Jesus the Beloved. Amen.

“My child, the thief takes; I give. There is nothing that I lack so I only give. Let my followers imitate me. What they receive from me, let them generously give. If I find a conduit of my generosity I will not hold back. That person will know what it means to give with the hand of God. In living to give, that person will not hold back anything, not even his own life. Child, ponder these things.”

Lord Jesus help me and all your people to imitate your generosity, that the world will know that you have sent us and glorify your name forever. Amen.

Another time during meditative prayer I felt the Eucharistic Host in my hand and felt the Lord telling me it was the key to Christian unity. I will try to offer more Communions for this purpose, for his kingdom to come on earth as in heaven. Amen.

“My beloved, give joyfully to those I send you. Do what you are able and do not hold back what may be justly given. Know and trust that I repay in abundance what you give. It is good for us to be partners in generosity, for what do you have that you did not receive from me? If I desire to work with you to distribute my gifts then enter joyfully into my generosity and do not hold back. Give and you will live, my child.”

Lord help me to be a cheerful and generous giver so that I might give you the joy of giving through my little actions. Fiat mihi, O Lord. I am yours. Amen.

“My beloved, I love you. Do you know what this passage means? It means that the infinite fountain of my love is available to you. If I am this generous, will you be less so? My child, return to me all your gifts and you will see how much more I will shower upon you. For when one imitates my generosity, the results are infinitely fruitful.”

Lord God, help me to know what to give and when. Let me follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit without delay or resentment. Blessed Mother, help me to be generous as God is generous. You understood this and imitated him perfectly. Sweet Jesus, I am yours. Amen.
