When is the last time you took a risk? How did it work out?

Each day that we wake up, we enter into a battleground; I believe it was Job who said, “life on Earth is constant warfare.” Those who preach peace on Earth are delusional. Even in the natural world, among the animals and the plants, is war. If the natural world is in a state of war, how much more the spiritual realm; so do not seek after a fantasy of peace, but put on the armor of Mary, and take up your sword, The Holy Rosary, and fight; fight to the very death, for only in this way will you obtain life for yourself. The cross is not meant to be merely decoration; the cross is an instrument of war against Satan, against The Antichrist. Take up your cross, truly and deeply in your heart; and not just as a fashion accessory. I do this each day, as should every single child born of Eve.

The richness of the soil brings the harvest,
to where the fruits depend upon their nourishment;
can anything good grow,
if the soil is like sand or silt.

The word of God has been spoken,
a great and mighty tree has been planted;
its roots go to the beginning of all things,
where from she draws in her water.

And The Son of Man shines down upon her,
for she is The True Church of Jesus Christ;
one holy, apostolic Church,
in communion with The Son of God.

Everyone outside her,
they have not known her;
although they may claim to be of her,
for she is fair,
and her heart is beautiful to behold.

One day, they will know of her,
but few will be found to enter her wisdom;
and through it, be sanctified in grace,
receiving the outpour of God's Divine Mercy.

For they hate what they do not understand,
and everyone who casts their ire on her;
it is karma,
and karma is a bitch.

This is the word of The Lord,
that pride must first be shattered;
in order that the seed take root.

Only the truth can do this.

Those who can accept the truth,
these accept the sledgehammer;
which breaks apart the concrete slabs,
saying to the self, "I'm good."

For only God is good,
and anyone who says this;
has put themselves up high,
but God so loves the meek,
the humble of heart, He loves,
while the proud, He dashes on stones,
and they break and shatter to dust.

Wisdom demands humility,
humility demands we serve;
and put ourselves below the foot of Christ.

For He shall make his enemies his footstool,
and who are his enemies;
but everyone who sins is his enemy.

Sin strikes his heart with malice,
goes forth, proclaiming, "impurity!"
Hatred then takes root,
and fosters nothing more than death.

Wisdom demands humility,
humility demands we serve;
and put ourselves below the foot of Christ.
