Group created by flower lady

A group for seniors or shut ins who simply want to talk to someone about anything that you want. Our grandkids, our troubles and concerns, our loneliness. However, we welcome all. With age comes wisdom. With God we can accomplish anything together.

    St. Therese of Liseiux, France had a perspective of God that He wanted us to love him always that He gave us everything we needed to live this life in holiness. If we do the will of God then God is always there for us. I thought about this relationship and found it more satisfying and complete. Just think about it we accept Christ fully without any strings attached. It is an awesome sphere of Love to be a part of.

    Saint Maria Faustina recorded in her Diary an excellent reason for us to contemplate Our Lord’s passion.
    "Jesus told me that I please Him best by meditating on His sorrowful Passion and by such meditation much light falls upon my soul. He who wants to learn true humility should reflect upon the Passion of Jesus. I get a clear under-standing of many things that I could not comprehend before" (Diary, 267).

    Jesus also suggested, "When it seems to you that your suffering exceeds your strength, contemplate My wounds" (Diary, 1184, 1512).

    Meditation upon His wounds pleases Jesus, and benefits us and all humanity as well. That, in itself, can motivate us to reflect upon them. Further, His mercy is manifested in these wounds, since He sacrificed Himself for our sins and for those sins committed against us.

    The Chaplet of Divine Mercy can help us to dwell on the wounds of our Lord while we use the five decades of our rosary beads. When trying to pray the chaplet, many find some difficulty with concentration. It is inevitable that we become unfocused in our prayer life. Having distractions during the recitation of the chaplet will be no exception. However, when we meditate on the meaning of these sacred wounds, we deepen our appreciation of what Our Lord had to endure, and our prayer life can be greatly enriched. (See Diary, 737.)

    There is no best way to focus on Christ’s wounds. The following suggestions are offered, not only to help control the many intrusive thoughts we may experience in prayer, but more importantly, to gently deepen our understanding of what is conveyed by each individual wound.

    When we focus on the symbolism of these wounds, we say the chaplet with greater fervor. Each wound may have a personal meaning for us. Continued reflection on what Jesus endured can enable us to have our heart and mind convicted by the message that Our Lord is trying to communicate. We permit ourselves a greater familiarity with His suffering in order to continue honoring His great personal sacrifice for us. Thus, an otherwise routine experience has been transformed into an uplifting time of prayer.

    Since the crown of thorns is so apparent, we can begin our meditation on this part of His sacrifice.

    Hello to everyone.....reflecting upon Christ sufferings~ and feeling so blessed that we have a beautiful, marvelous and amazing SAVIOR that sacrificed for us all! past generations~ present generations and our future brothers and sisters~ I love you my beautiful Jesus~


    God breathe your selfless love into me;
    take from me ,what is impure, selfish and ungodly.
    Lord, mold me like a potter molds his clay.
    Shape me into what you desire,
    bring forth what glorifies you.
    My Lord, my God, my hope and my salvation;
    my life, I freely give to you.
    I station myself before you in prayer,
    seeking you, desiring you.
    I am not my own, I am yours~ Kelly O'Mara

    I wanted to share a little something I wrote~

    If I were poor I would not possess regret,
    for worldly possessions
    will not accompany me within life eternal.
    If I never found a true confidant within humanity,
    I possess one in "He" that is immortal
    If I lie along the wayside, hungry and forgotten,
    it is "He" that has prepared
    a feast for me within his kingdom.
    If I pass and no man remembers my name,
    it is "He" who has not forgotten who I am.
    When others choose not to forgive me,
    it is "His" precious blood that has pardoned me.
    When I am weary and seek comfort,
    it is within "His" arms I find rest and console.
    When I am seeking shelter from the storm,
    it is within "His" grace that I am safe and sound... © Kelly Moore O'Mara

    jcaguon, women have never been ordained priest in the Catholic Church as far as I know. Recently some women have but the Pope does not recognize them as priest and neither does God.Deacon back then only meant servant of the poor.

    Good morning all. I just joined a group, Our Lady of Lourdes yesterday and I love it. I simply love St. Bernadette. Today I posted a quote of hers and thought I would share it with the group.

    "From this moment on, anything concerning me is no longer of any interest to me. I must belong entirely to God and God alone. Never to myself." (The beautiful words of St. Bernadette)

    Have a blessed day all!

    Our Lady of Lourdes Pray for us.
