“Black Friday”

“Black Friday”
"Black Friday" has replaced Good Friday here in America...
    Brothers and Sisters I write to you in the Selfless Love and peace of the Union and Marriage of Jesus Christ and of His Heart and all the blessings that flow forth from it.  “And when the young man had heard this word, he went away sad: for he had great possessions.  Then Jesus said to his disciples: Amen, I say to you, that a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 19: 22-23  Nay, Our Lord spoke of the rich man who gathered many possessions which hadst a hold of his heart. Ultimately, that kept him away from the life of perfection which is every Christian's goal in this life. Therefore, I sit to reflect on this western society to see the masses running into different secular establishments who greed after this material item or the next. I sit and think of the sorrow of Our Lady and Lord. I sit and reflect upon seeing how these same hearts do not enter the House of God with same veracity! How different the world would be if we pursued His heart and Divine Law thy same way souls run into the Walmart to claim the newest IPAD like Erik the Viking in their material conquest. On the outset it seems “normal” in this society but how perverse and corrupt are we when the perverse and corrupt art the norm. If anyone does not think we are headed toward atheistic communism please view the sample videos online from “black Friday”; it will have you to wonder if this is the same human race we claimeth to be apart of. Materialism is madness; it is an obscuration of the heart and intellect imbedded by the dark of self.


 “For all that is in the world, is the concupiscence of the flesh, and the concupiscence of the eyes, and the pride of life, which is not of the Father, but is of the world.” 1 John 2:16  Materialism which hast soaked western society and many other regions hast a philosophy rooted in the human person and nature and not thee Divine; not in the Sacred Heart of Christ. It is a society which bases "things uponst things" rather than on those principles which governs things. Materialism is rooted in self, in egoism and individualism and it is not Catholic but rather a disorder or lust of the heart. A perverse twisting of the would be and potential worship of His Creator which hast "eyes" only for the law of man and the law of jungle. Wherein man beats his chest and states, "Who has more is more"... but is this really? "And he said to them: Take nothing for your journey; neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats.” Luke 9:3  If thy heart desireth two coats this is one coat too many; if thy heart desireth anything more than that which art needed for thy journey, like the heavy nap sack for the pilgrim, than these “things” wilst burden or weareth down thy heart.  Further, we have a Conciliar Church that teacheth all rights belong to human at the human level (new humanism) due to a new distorted understanding of human dignity. Thence what does a man expect other than the slippery slope into such outcomes? Impotent humanitarianism is Masonic not catholic.

“And he said to them: Take heed and beware of all covetousness; for a man's life doth not consist in the abundance of things which he possesseth.” Luke 12:15  Where a woman would tend to the surface with the onslaught of “makeup” covering her face she often lacks in the makeup of her own heart and soul. For that which she often covers on thy surface is what she ought be “freeing” within her own heart and soul. Due to human nature man art inclined to novelty, this restlessness of heart seeking to cover thy defect on the surface first starts within. Man art inclined to evil and immodest fashion to show off the “self” rather than in modesty "showing off" ones' virtue which is a proof of intimacy with our Lady and Christ. How a man or woman dresseth indeed is indicative of "what is the reality within".... concerning how close or how far off a soul is from our Lord's own Heart. Materialism, fashioned by greed, promotes division and discord based uponst a pseudo system of man on thy natural level which the enemy pushes so violently throughst the media and entertainment outlets in our western “culture”. Materialism keeps a man focused on the surface with the carnal eye rather than the soul focusing in on the interior life seen by thy “inner eye”.  Only grace can break this vicious cycle of self and nature's preoccupation with distractions and novelties. Rather than seeking virtue we have lust for vehicles, rather than holding the Ten commandments we would rather holdeth technology; as man drifts further and further awayst from His Heart, lust and greed more readily taketh over. Men want to fit into society saints want to fit into Heaven know thence the difference.
   

 “Lay not up to yourselves treasures on earth: where the rust, and moth consume, and where thieves break through and steal. But lay up to yourselves treasures in heaven: where neither the rust nor moth doth consume, and where thieves do not break through, nor steal. For where thy treasure is, there is thy heart also.” Matthew 6:19-21  Verily, it is often that we give things to others because we did not first give ourselves. Rather than giving a soul the greatest gift a soul could receive in offering the Catholic Faith we would rather give something only harmful and distracting to that soul. For although it is a great act of the heart to give gifts at Christmas what better gift can ye giveth than to give another the Faith? All ye laity, ye art meant and called to witness as well! Yea, the more a man thinks "he is" in by what he posseses; in spiritual reality the least he has truly within(lack of grace). Materialism tends to vanities associated with pride; it pushes "looks" based upon “self” not “acts” or “works” based upon His Sacred Heart and the ever unchanging Divine Law. It has destroyed souls, families, communities and even nations including our own. It has destroyed families who were not rooted in solid ground, that is, the Catholic Faith. How many souls in the West and all over "opportunistically" come together on the basis of social status or for a perception of what “marriage” ought be? If a marriage is based solely upon things then unto things it shalst return ultimately; for these two in marriage were never really One at heart to begin with but rather lived and loved those things on the surface that the other hadst at that potential time.  Wisdom sayeth, “Without thee eyes the heart can not see and without the heart the eyes can not sense.” Yea, we must render our own hearts poor like Christ and detach from things.  For a man in humility who always sees his cup empty art always filled by thee Divine Waters.

  “Be not solicitous therefore, saying, What shall we eat: or what shall we drink, or wherewith shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the heathens seek. For your Father knoweth that you have need of all these things. Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added unto you. Be not therefore solicitous for tomorrow; for the morrow will be solicitous for itself. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof.” Matthew 6:31-34  Yea, strong words from Our Lord and how many heathens will run out like Vikings this weekend to partake in thy devil's consumerism? Ordereth first thy heart unto His thence all these things shalst be added unto thee in accordance to His Will and not thy bank account. Was it not Our Lady and Joseph who hadst very little in possession yet who were entrusted by the Father to "house" God Himself? They journeyed with Christ in poverty yet were in the Presence of Richness Himself. The Heart of Christ compels man onward more upward and inward through this interior Fortress of the Soul acquiring virtue and grace. Let us not live horizontally, that is, living on the surface alone for such it is with modern man and his shallowness.  Ultimately, such a man will find he is a fish out of God's Waters. For that which the carnal seeks is corrupt, ever failing and tends to the culture of death wherest His Heart gives forth the fruit of Life, true Selfless Love, true peace of mind, soul and body. Yea, materialism art a cruel penalty to the soul for having left His Heart; a cruel imprisonment of any person or society as a result of  a disordered and perverted heart and mind. For nature lives for the moment wilst grace rises above each moment to liveth safely in the refuge of His Heart.


 “But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world: and certainly we can carry nothing out.” 1 Timothy 6: 6-7  Nature tends to that which is new and novel for what is innovative rather than what is antique. Rather than living by "discipline of heart" it is much easier in nature "to do as one wills" and by compulsion act uponst emotions. Materialism is proof of degradation of the human heart and soul; it is a clear barometer of the air America currently breathes. Such souls compelled by things have hearts with no room for Christ in the house of their soul. And if the King were invited into these souls they would ask Our Lord to sit on the floor because their house is too cluttered with all these things. Nature pulls these hearts out into the open sea to drown for they have lost sight and focus of thee Lifeguard on thy beach. This disorder of heart tends to what a soul can acquire by sight and not by what one can acquire by faith. These souls want no Sacred Mysteries or dogmas that which art needed to truly free their hearts, but rather, due to pride, seek the ever changing “now”. Indeed, perversity of hearts hast created a nation full of the selfish, haughty, proud, avarice, lax, lukewarm, vain, impatient and curious who would giveth up there very own families, relationships and faith up for the latest fashions, technologies and trends.

   “Love not the world, nor the things which are in the world. If any man love the world, the charity of the Father is not in him.” 1 John 2:15  Man hast created this pseudo philosophy wherein the value system placed on things ultimately decides where one's place ought be in that society. Lusting after things devoid's the heart and soul of peace. For only in the heart that hast Christ as King can haveth true peace. It hast voided the soul of virtue, truth and true ordered Selfless Love. It runs contrary to His Heart and the pursuit to do Gods Will.  Men, void of grace and ultimately God, rather do their own thing, through self will to satisfy the self. Yet the souls of men cry out and are not truly looking for thy next “thing” they art looking for thy King.  Therein each heart lieth every man's own battle. This is the battle between the self and the Sacred heart of Christ for control over the soul which first starts in the heart and intellect.

 “There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen; and feasted sumptuously every day.” Luke 16:19  The same greed of heart which seekest to have “self” noticed is the same “self” that seekest more and more "of a fill on things" and why? Because the man who seeks to fill his heart and soul with these things hast created a hole in the bottom thereof....  and so the heart always searches for the next empty “fill". Yea, much like a man who pumps gas into the car with a hole in the gas tank; this car or soul goes nowhere! Thence, materialism, immodesty, impurity often go hand in hand. To the sexual sinner: he looks to fill his senses with pleasure. The same lust of heart of can be found in those souls who simply must have and canst not be “complete” nor  feel secure without being surrounded by “things”.  If a soul will literally lust after another in body; it is quite often he or she wilst lust after the things that covereth thy body. The potential space that would be Christ's alone is rather cluttered with transient materials that holdeth no eternal value to the heart and soul. We haveth security in Christ who art All Things who created those things ye seekest this is our only focus.

“He that hath the substance of this world, and shall see his brother in need, and shall shut up his bowels from him: how doth the charity of God abide in him?” 1 John 3:17  What more can ye give to all those ye would encounter but that alone of the poverty of Christ? For in Him I have lost all things but in Him I haveth all things. I am fully secure “without” for I haveth him wholly within. Avarice souls can not be mortified without grace for they art in a restless pursuit of true nothingness which is found in “things”. As we approach Christmas wherein Our King was born in obscurity and into poverty let us remember how strong Joseph and Our Lady truly were having Christ centered in their own lives. This Christmas come forth to the Nativity scene within your own heart after a long journey with three simple gifts; self, sacrifice, and silence. These art three great gifts ye can give Our Lord who can take these “poor” gifts and then turn anyone into a Saint. Indeed, on Good Friday men knelt  and still kneel before our Lord in His Passion to show forth their ordered hearts unto Him; wilst modern man hast a new Black Friday which only further shows how far their hearts art away from His in their kneeling and bowing to thy idol of “things”. Amen

“Grant me the treasure of sublime poverty: permit the distinctive sign of our order to be that it does not possess anything of its own beneath the sun, for the glory of your name, and that it have no other patrimony than begging.” (St Francis of Assisi)

"Poverty is the way to salvation, the nurse of humility, and the root of perfection. Its fruits are hidden, but they multiply themselves infinite ways." (St. Francis of Assisi)

"Whoever curses a poor man does an injury to Christ, whose noble image he wears - the image of Him who made Himself poor for us in this world." (St. Francis of Assisi)

"I, brother Francis, the little one, wish to follow the life and poverty of our most high Lord Jesus Christ and of His most holy mother and to preserve in this until the end" (St. Francis of Assisi)

"My brother, when thou seest a poor man, behold in him a mirror of the Lord, and of His poor Mother. In the sick, in like manner, consider that He bore our sicknesses." (St. Francis of Assisi)

"We should have no more use or regard for money in any of its forms than we have for dust. Those who think it is worth more, or who are greedy for it, expose themselves to the danger of being deceived by the devil." (St. Francis of Assisi)

"If we had any possessions, we would be forced to have arms to protect them, since possessions are a cause of disputes and strife, and in many ways we would be hindered from loving God and our neighbor. Therefore in this life we wish to have no temporal possessions." (St. Francis of Assisi)

Eagles are detached at heart from all "things"...
