A handful of powerful prayer warriors dedicated to the Divine Will could bring about millions of conversions :)Mary N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618318192221168152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449799335048031917.post-42685896329556675152010-03-19T20:31:08.115-04:002010-03-19T20:31:08.115-04:00Once I was lucky enough to have a holy contemplati...Once I was lucky enough to have a holy contemplative monk for a spiritual director. He told me that it only takes a handful of prayerful people who dedicate themselves to God's will and God can turn things around. Things are so bad now we need a couple of handfuls. The only thing that gives me peace - because I am one of the ones the government will want dead because of disability - is that God will bring good out of the evil all around us if we stay faithful.Barb Schoenebergerhttp://www.sufferingwithjoy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449799335048031917.post-3222543030748431792010-03-19T15:19:38.583-04:002010-03-19T15:19:38.583-04:00Bernie,

Doesn't keep me asleep though but that's okay - I guess insomnia is one of my crosses;)<br />I agree with everything you said here, God has given us many weapons to use against Satan's attacks and Christians need to support one another. We are all one in Christ :) Hugs to you, too, Bernie. I'm glad you slept well!Mary N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618318192221168152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449799335048031917.post-59606691396820506862010-03-18T22:10:26.957-04:002010-03-18T22:10:26.957-04:00Now I am feeling guilty because I slept so well la...Now I am feeling guilty because I slept so well last night. Each night I say the Rosary (through my computer thanks to Victor) I find filling my bedroom with prayer makes for a calm and peaceful room for sleeping.<br />I too think Satan has been working very hard and we are all under attack, we each must pray, confess, worship and gather in God's name and much more. We must all do what we can and what God expects of us but we also have to realize that God has given each of us free will and how others choose to use this gift may be different than what we might choose. This is time for Christians to bond in their faith, support each other and pray to all the Saints for guidance......rest well tonight my dear sweet Mary.......:-) HugsBerniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03024565921761129108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449799335048031917.post-74446100396793477952010-03-18T19:23:57.021-04:002010-03-18T19:23:57.021-04:00Hi Lynn!

His Blackberry dings when someone leaves a comment on my blog because it is attached to my e-mail. <br />I'm glad we're on the same wavelength - the Holy Spirit's. I have been up every night this week. I did the Mercy Chaplet last night. Some nights I just plead for His mercy then praise Him. The Lord seems to like waking people up in the middle of the night :)Mary N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618318192221168152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449799335048031917.post-72733124840396202442010-03-18T18:55:54.074-04:002010-03-18T18:55:54.074-04:00I'm with you.

God must be moving many hearts to intercede right now. I've been up many nights this week with the urge to pray.<br />Hugs and hope you feel better tomorrow!<br />Lynn (Is)lshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14566197196918934644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449799335048031917.post-30950719986013956232010-03-18T14:39:44.938-04:002010-03-18T14:39:44.938-04:00Thank you, Karin.

There comes a point when people presume upon the Lord's mercy and we are close to reaching it.<br />I didn't go to Mass today because I was sick so thanks for letting me know what the 1st reading was :)Mary N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618318192221168152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449799335048031917.post-7654625481448913482010-03-18T13:30:40.751-04:002010-03-18T13:30:40.751-04:00Mary,

God has been merciful with us thus far in that we are still here as a nation, but I am sure His patience will wear thin if He does not see us as a nation at least begin to return to Him.<br />The rest of us have to be like Moses and the prophets who prayed and interceded on their people's behalf. Today's Mass reading talks about Moses standing in the breach between God's wrath and the Israelites~ we need to stand in the breach.<br />Thank you for your courageous voice.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15124468084334204166noreply@blogger.com
