THOUGHTS FOR THIS DAY; THIS A BEAUTIFUL REFLEC TIONS ON OUR JOURNEY TO THE LENTEN SEASON. MY FAMILY, FREINDS, BEST FREINDS, MY RELATIVES AND FOR ALL THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO EMBRACE MY SHARINGS OF WHAT I AM PONDERING IN MY HEART. FROM MY GIVE US THIS DAY MISSAL BOOK, THE DAILY PRAYERS FOR TODAYS CATHOLIC. WHY DO WE FAST? THERE ARE THREE THINGS , MY BELOVED FAMILY AND FREINDS, BY WHICH FAITH STANDS FIRM, DEVOTIONS REMAINS CONSTANT, AND VIRTUE ENDURES. THEY ARE PRAYER, FASTING AND MERCY. PRAYER KNOCKS AT THE DOOR , FASTINGS OBTAINS , MERCY RECEIVES. PRAYER , MERCY, AND FASTING, THESE THREE ARE ONE, AND THEY GIVE LIFE TO EACH OTHER. FASTING IS THE SOUL OF PRAYER, MERCY IS THE LIFEBLOOD OF FASTING. LET NO ONE TRY TO SEPERATE THEM: THEY CANNOT BE SEPARATED. IF YOU HAVE ONLY ONE OF THEM OR NOT ALL TOGETHER, YOU HAVE NOTHING . SO IF YOU PRAY, FAST: IF YOU FAST, SHOW MERCY: IF YOU WANT YOUR PETITON TO BE HEARD , HEAR THE PETITION OF OTHERS. IF YOU DO NOT CLOSE YOUR EAR TO OTHERS, YOU OPEN GODS EAR TO YOURSELF. IF YOU FAST, SEE THE FASTING OF OTHERS. IF YOU WANT GOD TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE HUNGRY, KNOW THAT ANOTHER IS HUNGRY. IF YOU HOPE FOR MERCY , SHOW MERCY. IF YOU LOOK FOR KINDNESS , SHOW KINDNESS. IF YOU WANT TO RECEIVE , GIVE. IF YOU ASK FOR YOURSELF WHAT YOU DENY TO OTHERS , YOUR ASKING IS A MOCKERY. FASTING BEARS NO FRUIT UNLESS IT IS WATERED BY MERCY. FASTING DRIES UP WHEN MERCY DRIES UP. MERCY IS TO FASTING AS RAIN IS TO THE EARTH. HOWEVER MUCH YOU MAY CULTIVATE YOUR HEART, CLEAR THE SOIL OF YOUR NATURE, ROOT OUT VICES, SOW VIRTUES , IF YOU DO NOT RELEASE THE SPRINGS OF MERCY, YOUR FASTING WILL BEAR NO FRUIT. WHEN YOU FAST, IF YOUR MERCY IS THIN YOUR HARVEST WILL BE THIN: WHEN YOU FAST , WHAT YOU POUR OUT IN MERCY OVERFLOWS IN TO YOUR BARN, THERE FORE DO NOT LOSE BY SAVING , BUT GATHER IN BY SCATTERING . GIVE TO THE POOR , AND YOU GIVE TO YOURSELF. YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO KEEP WHAT YOU HAVE REFUSED TO GIVE TO OTHERS. PRAISE TO YOU LORD JESUS KING OF ENDLESS GLORY. SEEK GOOD AND NOT EVIL SO THAT WE MAY LIVE, AND THE LORD WILL BE WITH US. LET US SING OUT TO THE LORD, AND LIFT UP OUR HANDS, HEARTS AND SOULS TO THE LORD AND WE ARE SINGING WE LOVE YOU LORD JESUS , WE LOVE YOU. ! MY HEARTFELT, AND HEARTFUL ADVICE SAY A SHORT PRAYERS TO THE LORD JESUS AND THANK HIM FOR EVERYTHING, AND LOVE HIS HOLY MOTHER, THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY. THANK YOU !! OUR LORD JESUS , THANK YOU , BLESSED VIRGIN MARY, OUR MOTHER. AMEN!
