[Venerable Mary of Agreda – XVII Century AD; Agreda, Spain; Mystic; Writer; ‘Blue Nun’] “Chapter IV ~ THE SUSPICIONS OF ST. JOSEPH INCREASE, AND HE RESOLVES TO LEAVE HIS SPOUSE—THE ANGEL OF THE LORD DECLARES TO TIIM THE MYSTERY OF THE INCARNATION. The passion of jealousy produces sharp wounds in him who is attacked by it, and no one ever felt its effects so sensibly as St. Joseph, though, in fact, there was no foundation for it, if he had but known the truth. He was endowed with a singular intelligence to penetrate the sanctity and the lovely character of his spouse. But this, in augmenting his esteem for her whom he was about to lose, augmented his sorrow to find himself necessitated to abandon her. St. Joseph was not subject to the disorders of common jealousy, in which the passions of concupiscence are engaged, which neither reason nor prudence can vanquish. The jealousy of the saint arose only from the depth of his love and a conditional suspicion, viz.: whether his chaste spouse …More
"St. Joseph awoke, informed of the mystery which had been revealed to him, and instructed that his spouse was the Mother of God. He found himself divided between the joy of his happiness, and his unhoped for dignity, and sorrow for what he had been about to do. He prostrated himself instantly on the ground, and made, with humble fear and inconceivable contentment, heroic acts of humility and gratitude. He gave thanks to God for the mystery which had been disclosed to him, and for having made him the spouse of her whom He had chosen to be His mother—him, who did not deserve to be her servant. The doubts and uncertainty which St. Joseph had suffered, laid in him the foundations of the most profound humility, necessary for him to whom was confided the dispensation of the most holy counsels of the Lord. The remembrance of what had passed served as a lesson for his future life."
"St. Joseph saw not the angel through any image or form—he heard only the internal voice, and understood the mystery. He heard what St. Gabriel said, “ that he should not fear to remain with Mary his wife, because her condition was the work of the Holy Ghost. That she should bring forth a son, whom he should call Jesus; that He should deliver His people from their sins; and that in this mystery would be accomplished the prophecy of Isaiah —‘A Virgin shall conceive and bring forth a son, who shall be called Emmanuel, which means, God with us.’” We perceive from the words of the celestial ambassador, that the saint had separated from the pure Mary in intention, since he was commanded to receive her without fear."
Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes This woman lives in Boston, Massachusetts. She has a 6 month old child and needs childcare but she heard it was expensive She films herself walking into KinderCare, she got a quote: - 2 days a week cost $2,450 per month - 3 days a week cost $3,115 per month + $200 initiation fee yearly “Like that is crazy” “This is a true problem in the United States. Like this is really a legitimate problem that needs to be addressed because people can't afford childcare” Foreigners and illegals get this 100% for free, paid for by taxpayers Americans can’t afford to have kids but we're paying for foreigners to have kids and replace us
Bravo, a very courageous and brilliant woman who has _dared_ to reveal the truth; the Israelis hate Palestinians, consider them less than human. They hate Christians too..
St. Louis de Montfort - April 28 Priest (1673 - 1716) Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort (31 January 1673 – 28 April 1716) was a French Roman Catholic priest and confessor. He was known in his time as a preacher and was made a missionary apostolic by Pope Clement XI. He was born in Montfort-sur-Meu, the eldest surviving child of eighteen born to Jean-Baptiste and Jeanne Robert Grignion. His father was a notary. Louis-Marie passed most of his infancy and early childhood in Iffendic, a few kilometers from Montfort, where his father had bought a farm. At the age of 12, he entered the Jesuit College of St. Thomas Becket in Rennes, where his uncle was a parish priest. He was then given the opportunity, through a benefactor, to go to Paris to study at the renowned Seminary of Saint-Sulpice. When he arrived in Paris, it was to find that his benefactor had not provided enough money for him, so he lodged in a succession of boarding houses, living among the very poor, in the meantime attending …More

Prevost obstinately rejects the authority of God and defies the Holy Spirit. Leo Affirms Francis’ Blessing Of Gay Couples Saint Paul teaches us that anyone who rejects the instructions to live in holiness and disobeys the Will of God—which consists precisely in the requirement that we Christians live in holiness and abstain from all sexual immorality—is not rejecting a human authority; rather, on the contrary, such a person is rejecting the Supreme Authority, which is the authority of God. Such a person rejects and defies the Holy Spirit. In other words, Prevost is committing the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 New Catholic Bible God Wills Your Sanctification Chapter 4 Respect for the Body. 1 Finally, brethren, you learned from us how you ought to live so that you may be pleasing to God—and as you are indeed doing. Now we ask and exhort you in the Lord Jesus to do so even more. 2 For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord …More

I believe the attack on Trump event was staged, says former CIA officer Larry Johnson. Did Trump know in advance? It's a miracle he hasn't been shot by now, given multiple security failings. The patsy and an FBI set-up INTERVIEW: The story stinks to high heaven
That is exactly why we need to do it. We push back. We refuse to use it. We use cash and barter. Yes, it's difficult, and they want it that way so we all agree to their terms and we'll be in a prison, like in China
St. Anselm ~~~ The God Who made all things gave Himself form through Mary, and thus He made His own creation. He Who created all things from nothing...
He warns that such people compensate for their "inner weakness" by becoming overly bossy. This also happens in the Industrial workforce. With an inexperienced person placed into a position of power and authority, power quickly goes to his head and leadership skills are lost. A "How to Become a Good Supervisor" seminar focuses on transitioning from individual contributor to leader by mastering communication, conflict resolution, and performance management. Key topics include active listening, setting clear expectations, delivering constructive feedback, and building team trust. These seminars, often available via SkillPath, AMA, or online modules, emphasize practical tools to boost team morale and productivity. The guy who really wants the job is the guy who should never be promoted, it'll go to his head.
