Day: September 22, 2025

Stay with us! September 23, 2025 St. Pius of Pietrelcina Dear Family of Mary! Today is the Memorial of St. Pius of Pietrelcina! Our dear Padre Pio!! He carried in his body the wounds of the Crucified Savior for over 50 years! He suffered for us, and fought the devil every day for us. His love was so great, and his patience so powerful! But the secret to his victory over all his sufferings was his immense love for Jesus. I am at a loss to say more! He had a love for Jesus that cannot be fathomed. And that love empowered him to do great deeds in the midst of his suffering. Padre Pio wrote the prayer below, in which he begged Jesus to never leave him. Without Jesus, he would not have been able to endure even one day of his suffering. But with Jesus, all things were possible. May Padre Pio’s prayer asking Jesus to stay with him be a help for us when we feel weak and need Jesus too! Stay with me Lord! Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You. Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength, that I may not fall so often. Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life, and without You, I am without fervor. Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light, and without You, I am in darkness. Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will. Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You. Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You very much, and always be in Your company. Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You. Stay with me, Lord, for as poor as my soul is, I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of love. Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close, and life passes; death, judgment, eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strength, so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You. It is getting late and death approaches, I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows. O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile! Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers. I need You. Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart. Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You, if not by communion, at least by grace and love. Stay with me, Jesus, I do not ask for divine consolation, because I do not merit it, but the gift of Your Presence, oh yes, I ask this of You! Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love, Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more. With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen. There are times when we also ask Our Lady to stay with us! We need her so much! She gave us this message, expressing her need for us to help her, and assuring us that God had sent her to stay with us! February 25, 1995 “Dear children! Today I invite you to become missionaries of my messages, which I am giving here through this place that is dear to me. God has allowed me to stay this long with you and therefore, little children, I invite you to live with love the messages I give and to transmit them to the whole world, so that a river of love flows to people who are full of hatred and without peace. I invite you, little children, to become peace where there is no peace and light where there is darkness, so that each heart accepts the light and the way of salvation. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Jesus, stay with us!! Mother Mary, stay wih us!! Padre Pio, stay with us!!

God is light! September 22, 2025 Dear Family of Mary! St. John the Apostle knew Jesus intimately. And he wrote brilliantly about Jesus, in images that are breathtaking. Here he speaks about Jesus as the light of the world. May we allow John’s words to sink into our hearts! They give great joy! 1John.1:1-7 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon and touched with our hands, concerning the word of life –the life was made manifest, and we saw it, and testify to it, and proclaim to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was made manifest to us –that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you may have fellowship with us; and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. And we are writing this that our joy may be complete.This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth; but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. (1Jn 1:1-7) God is light!! Jesus is light!! We need light in order to live, to work, to think, to know. Jesus is the light that makes all those things possisble. Our Lady spoke about this light, the light of God as well: December 25, 1999 (Jakov) “Dear children! Today on the birthday of my Son, when my heart is filled with immeasurable joy and love, I invite you to open fully and surrender fully to God. Throw out all the darkness from your heart and let God’s light and God’s love enter your heart and dwell there forever. Be carriers of God’s light and love to all people, so everyone, in you and through you, can feel and experience the authentic light and love that only God is able to give you. I am blessing you with my motherly blessing!” We need God’s light! It is impossible to live without it! And we need to share that light with others, so that they too can live!!! That light helps us to see all the good that God is giving to us and to recognize all the evil that the enemy sews in our minds and hearts! With that light, we can reject the enemy and his evil influence, and live completely in God’s light! We will become filled with joy!! Seek the light of God!! Seek Jesus!!
