Take care of yourself ~ A short passage from the little book, The Imitation of Mary, by Alexander De Rouville Ch 32: Submission to God's Will even in what seems contrary to His Glory ......Nothing happens in our world without His permission. And everything, evil as well as good, serves His providential purposes. It is not granted to you now to understand His plans but the day will come when you will recognize their full justice and wisdom. You should not, of course, be insensible of the evils in the Church; it is only right they should be a source of affliction for you; you may even weep bitterly over them, as God Himself does. But if you were to be scandalized at them so that your faith suffered or you lost your peace, that would not any longer be zeal but an abuse and an excess. One true virtue does not destroy another. Submission to mind of what God allows is compatible with genuine zeal for the glory of God..... Evils call for your tears and laments, but they should be tears shed at the Savior's feet and laments voiced to Him. Tell Him of your anguish; ask Him to put an end to your afflictions; speak to Him with a holy freedom. He will not be offended.
Great idea Mike, thanks. I will do this now. I think I will do the little Covid test too, just in case.
My last day in the caravan a rather strange looking English lady wandered past with six or seven small little dogs in tow. Loving dogs so much I tried to pet one and this drew the ladies attention. The next time I looked she was standing staring at a Silver Birch tree and peeling pieces of the bark of to form a pattern. This made me uneasy. She then said to me quite clearly, 'I hope you have a very unhappy time while you are here'. Then pranced of. Why would she say something like this to a perfect stranger? Fr Hardon says true high level witched do not ill wish or course someone because they regard it as being too risky. If the curse does not take the demon comes back on the witch who did it and attacks them. So Fr Hardon says they don't even risk trying. Lower level witches are silly enough to risk it though. Apparently witches used Birch Trees to make their broomsticks. https://druidry.org/druid-way/teaching-and-practice/druid-tree-lore/birch
Sometimes I think the last 10 years have been a dream. I can honestly say that I have tried my best not to think about him too much either. 10 years. Wow. It is surreal
A punishment on us for our sins. I am amazed how many Catholics, even amongst those who go to Mass every day do not believe in the Real Presence. They think that it is just bread and wine but symbolic. Not the actual body and blood of the Lord. You can tell this by the way people receive. If you truly believe it actually is the body and blood you will receive one way. If you do not believe you will receive another way. It is not something to be done casually. Which raises the question, how many people are receiving in a State of Mortal Sin? It would turn your hair white. But anyway Pope Francis did not come from nowhere. He is a Judgement on us for our lack of Faith and sins. But on a positive note, I have no doubt that God will fix things. We have the promise of His Mother. However if Our Present Holy Father causes me to grind my teeth anymore I will have no teeth left.
Yes, but I had rosary beads hanging on the mirror of my car. ..and an Icon of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour in the caravan, she might have spotted these. Anyone could tell she was weird just by looking at her.

"blue eyes weirded him out, and Ivan's were especially creepy" Origin Old English wyrd ‘destiny’, of Germanic origin. The adjective (late Middle English) originally meant ‘having the power to control destiny’, and was used especially in the Weird Sisters, originally referring to the Fates, later the witches in Shakespeare's Macbeth ; the latter use gave rise to the sense ‘unearthly’ (early 19th century).
We have the power in Jesus's Name to turn a curse back on the perpetrator. My very holy friend now deceased told me that a long time ago.
I watched the DM conference on line, the healing service last evening and the Holy Hour today, both conducted by Fr Blount. At the healing he requested we prat this invocation on our rosary beads 'ó precious blood of Jesus heal me and the whole world'. He prays it 50 times every morning and no demon can touch him. He has delivered people with this prayer and delivered a woman from a curse by praying it over the phone with her. At the Holy Hour he prayed the St Michael Chaplet and he gave us a word that we should pray it every day to drive all the drug dealers out of our country and to close houses and pubs of filth. Pádraig it is so upsetting to look at the evil thats occurring in the House of God but evil will not have the last word. All will be restored. I pray for the conversion of all the clergy who are walking in darkness.
Thank you for telling us maryrose. I really really like Fr Blount. He is an exorcist in addition to his other ministries.
Five and a half years ago, just before I went into the hospital for major depression, my husband took me away for a weekend trying to cheer me up. We were on the beach in the evening and he was trying to make a fire. Completely out of the blue, three strange men showed up and parked themselves a few feet away; strange because aside from us, there was no one else there. Two of them came over to talk. The strangest one stayed back. They were covered in tattoos, the lot of them. One sat in front of me and started talking about how bad things were, "what's the point in going on?" he said. WEIRD to the max. I said nothing. My husband thought it odd. I knew it was evil personified. But I wasn't scared or mad, probably because of the depression. But as the one spoke, and so kindly too, I realized he was prodding me to just give up and end it all. Trying to demolish whatever HOPE I had left. Not long after I was in the hospital, and not giving up. As the psalmist says, Ps126:2 "It is vain for you to rise before light, rise ye after you have sitten, you that eat the bread of sorrow." Prayers for you today....
You're so kind. I was throwing up this morning and coughed some blood, I was coughing so much. But I tested myself for covid and it is not that. The coughing has stopped. I feel much , much better now. But I am glad I did not stay camping, it would have been dangerous.
I think you know if you look at videos of pro abortionist and a lot of the, 'Woke', crowd it is not in the least hard to see that very many of them are involved in the occult. You can see , for instance on their tee shirts things like inverted stars, pentagrams and that many of them wear tattoo's of such stuff. This is really, really common. Also a man or woman involved in the occult has a certain look to them it is hard to describe. It is as though they were hallowed out or empty inside. Charles Manson and the ladies who followed him looked like that. Hollowed out inside. Also sometimes when you look at the photos of the mass shooters they look the same. A kind of Zombie look. I think too that their eyes are often downcast, they don't like looking folks in the eyes. But as you mention a feeling of the strange, the weird, the not normal. These aren't one or two people, at this stage we are talking of many many thousands, we can see this by the constant attacks on Churches. It is every day now. Another thing they often look dirty, unclean. It is hard to describe, but they just feel weird. Possessed people are the same. Hilary and Bill Clinton feel like this to me, for instance. Nanci Pelosi too. Weird,weird, weird. They look to to me the very opposite of all that is good and upright.
I think John had a premonition that you were in some kind of trouble and we all prayed so maybe that protected you from the witch
