FEAST OF SAINTS LOUIS MARIE DE MONTFORT AND PETER CHANNEL.
FEAST OF SAINTS LOUIS MARIE DE MONTFORT & PETER CHANNEL.
THE GOODNEWS:
"The feast of the Dedication was taking place in Jerusalem. It was winter.
And Jesus walked about in the temple area on the Portico of Solomon.
So the Jews gathered around him and said to him,
“How long are you going to keep us in suspense?
If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
Jesus answered them, “I told you and you do not believe.
The works I do in my Father’s name testify to me. But you do not believe, because you are not among my sheep.
My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish.
No one can take them out of my hand.
My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out of the Father’s hand.
The Father and I are one.” (John 10: 22 - 30).

Louis Marie de Monfort was ordained a priest in 1700.

Catholics everywhere are indebted to him for articulating the incredible
powers of this simple devotion.

If your heart is troubled by affairs of this world: family, health, money, politics, etc, it is because you do not put your complete trust in Jesus Christ.
If you depend on the world for your peace and serenity, the Scriptures promise you lots of trouble.
But it should not be so.
Listen to the promises of Jesus. Reflect on them continually and you shall have peace.
Below are a few of the promises of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Call them healing truths because they destroy the lies of Satan in the soul and establish the peace of Christ.
1. "I have told you this so that you might have peace in me. In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world.”
2."It is I. Do not be afraid."
3. "Do not let your heart be troubled. Believe in God and believe in Me also."
4. "Fear is useless. All you need is Faith."
5. "My grace is sufficient for you. For power is made effective in weakness."
