“My beloved, do not forget that the Lord alone will grant success to all you do in his name. Take no glory for yourself, for your every ability and action has its source in me. Therefore, act boldly in my name. Do not be afraid, but walk with your head erect. The shame belongs to those who deny me, mock me, revile me, and hate me. Continue to pray for sinners, my child. You cannot imagine the good I will accomplish if you but surrender your life to me.”

Here I am Lord, I come to live in your will. Give me all the graces I need, through the prayers of the Blessed Mother, so that I might always act in your power and in your name to your glory. For the sake of your sorrowful passion, have mercy on all who are far from you. Amen

Dream: Last night I dreamed that the sandstorm forecast in my dream of May 14, hit with full force. It was unbelievable! I could see nothing but brown outside. I was not afraid, but calmly closed windows to keep out the grit. Upon waking I asked the Lord for the meaning and he reminded me that severe dust storms are symbolic of economic hardship, as in the Dirty Thirties. I asked for a Scripture passage and he led me to the following:

Nehemiah 13:12-13 All Judah once more brought in the tithes of grain, wine, and oil to the storerooms; and in charge of the storerooms I appointed the priest Shelemiah, Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah, one of the Levites, together with Hanan, son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, as their assistant; for these men were held to be trustworthy. It was their duty to make the distribution to their brethren.

“Beloved, the time of hardship is upon you. You do not know what hardship can do, even to good people. You must pray for yourself and for all, that in dire times you will remain filled with hope and charity. Prayer is key. There will come a time when you will feel called to move on. This model I gave to Nehemiah is the model I give for your time. There must be no hoarding, but hold all things in common with the brothers and sisters I assemble. Keep to the prayers. Distribute according to need. Let there be no jealousy or wrangling, but a spirit of peace and fidelity. The Holy Spirit will be with you in this time, in a new and powerful way. Do not be afraid, for I am near.”

Jesus, lead us! Holy Spirit, keep us faithful to your holy will. Guide us and give us all the gifts we need to live the truth in love. Send forth your Spirit, O Lord, and renew the face of the earth. Amen.

Zechariah 2:8 People will live in Jerusalem as though in open country, because of the multitude of men and beasts in her midst. 9 But I will be for her an encircling wall of fire, says the LORD, and I will be the glory in her midst.

“My child, I am gathering my children into my refuges. Do not be afraid, but go where I will show you. Those I am calling will have no doubt when they are called. However, they will still be able to deny themselves permission to listen to the voice. My child, it is better to listen, but there is no harm in discerning the voice with a holy priest. I will honor what he tells you. Those who trust in me and in my Mother, I will encircle with a shield of fire and I will be the glory in their midst. My child, believe and trust.”

Lord, I ask for very clear signs for all those you are calling. May we surrender to the Divine Will and may our Blessed Mother guide us firmly and surely. Open our ears to hear you , O Lord and open our hearts to listen and obey. Jesus I trust in you. Amen.

Amos 6:11 Indeed, the LORD has given the command to shatter the great house to bits, and reduce the small house to rubble.

“My child, there is much to come and indeed it is here already. The time of reckoning is upon you. The leveler has been released over the earth. My children must not fear. I myself will come to the aid of those who call on my name. Those attached to their excesses and earthly comforts will have much anxiety. Those whose hearts belong not to the things of earth, but to the kingdom of God will know peace even in turmoil. Do not be afraid! I have said this my child in every voice that will carry the message. There is no need for my children to fear. Even if they have to suffer, it will be sweeter than any earthly prize, for the hosts of heaven will descend and assist them. One angel in a fiery furnace was able to keep my servants safe (Daniel 3). How much more will the heavenly host accomplish for those who praise my name without ceasing! Child trust in me and be at peace.”

Lord Jesus I trust in you! Grant courage, strength, and peace to all who call upon your name. Have mercy on us all. Help us to praise your name unceasingly, without fear. Lord Jesus have mercy. 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.

“My child, do not be surprised when the world does not understand what to you seems obvious and reasonable. Rejoice in the grace you have been given and give thanks always for the gifts of faith, knowledge and understanding. Even further, pray that all would be given these gifts, pray that their hearts will be open, for they only need to desire these things and more yet will be given to them. This is indeed a time of great grace for the world. Continue to pray for sinners. Trust in me me and my Mother, and your prayers will bear fruit.”

Thanks be to God fore every gift and grace showered upon me. I accept with humble gratitude all the Lord desires to grant me and I pray that all hearts will be open to grace, especially in the time to come. Lord have mercy on us all! Amen.

“Remember this always, my child. It is tempting when you see growth to want to take the credit for it. Remember, however, that all glory belongs to God alone. Say to yourself, ‘I am but an unworthy servant. May God be praised in all I do.’ Child, this is the way to please me and to release my power in your work.”

Lord I long to be used by you for your purpose and your glory. Send forth your Spirit, O Lord, and renew the face of the earth. Here I am Lord, I come to live in your will. Amen.
