Deb's Podcast

Never ever to be forgotten by the faithful!  Our hearts cry  out for our Lord's children.   As we remember the innocent lives that were taken away unjustly.  Starting with King Herod, continue today.  We must pray my brothers and sisters for the forgiveness of past sins and past mistakes of men and women who gave up their right to enter into  parenthood.  For these mistakes, we are paying dea...

Are we open to discovering the Great I Am?  Are we open to the idea that God wants us closer?  He wants us to be the best person we can, and in order to get there we have to be ready to open our hearts completely to him.  We have to be honest and prayerful and willing to work through the imperfections in our lives.  Even if we take the smallest  most important step, we can begin the process that w...

The Joy of being in a deep relationship with Jesus Christ has its benefits of great inner healing and a great genuine inner Joy, something that all of us, as God's creation, have access to.  Sometimes we do not tap into this awesome gift.  And I think I am suppose to enlighten you today with this message.  It is to me a gentle reminder of how much we are loved by God.  This higher power I spe...

How will you bring Jesus into your heart during this New Liturgical Year?  Will you bring him to the homeless, forgotten, infirmed, widow, widower, and the lonely.  We have every opportunity to be participating in God's perfect plan.  I so dare to question why is it we do not do more than we should?  I think it is because we need to be invited.  And today I want to present that invitation to...

The greatest Joy of my life - my decision to dedicate my life to Christ without waivering! I cannot stop this beautiful process in my spiritual life that has enriched my way of thinking and living and serving God and others.  I live in God, God lives in me, its a beautiful powerful communion!   Whether it be a liturgical apostolate through podcasting or writing my personal autobiography, I am exci...

God created us.  God makes us his first concern.  I dare to question how do you go about personally reciprocating that same courtesy to God?  Good question.  God never abandons his creation, his children.  Although he allows us to accept the gift of free will, unknowingly yet willingly and at times unappreciatively.  What do we do with God's gifts, and how do we recognize our selfishness and...

Confession, examination of conscience, offer us freedom from all our past sins.  Protecting us from remaining stuck in our own sins.  Just how important is that?  Very!  We will never, ever, outgrow our short comings, if we do not look at them head on.  When we look at them, we realize they truly exist.  We realize they are a part of us that needs addressing.  Correcting our imperfections is a goo...

A great book for women who desire to grow deeper in their relationship with our Holy Mother Mary.  I just loved the format given to us in this book.  There are fourteen chapters within 274 pages of this book.  After reading one chapter at a time, you have the opportunity to use your bible as a reference, to guide you through the meditation and reflection process expounding upon your knowledge of s...

Faith is trusting everything to God.  Faith is believing - - -  in a higher power.  Faith is a self surrendering, of your entire being to your creator.  As a woman of faith, I have had the blessing of being surrounded by like minded people my entire life.  And even outside of my very own family, God has brought me to others within the church for a very specific purpose that remains solely an apost...

Do we understand the Eucharist?  When we consume the body of Christ at every holy mass do we really connect with God in mind, body, soul, and spirit?  Do we build upon this important encounter?  It is spiritual, yes, it is physical, yes, a piece of bread, does become the body of Christ, that truly is living within us.  We consume our Lord and the mystery of Him is both profound and beautiful, for...

Only our Lord, can heal our inner waywardness.  Only our Lord can heal our inner blindness.  Only our Lord can heal our inner imperfections.  Why is it that we allow such negativity to cling to us unnecessarily throughout our life journey?  Why do well allow what needs to be said, left unsaid?  Why do we choose to create more problems that stemmed from the first problem that we chose to do nothing...

The bible is our guide, our truth, our answer on how to truly live a holy life as a Christian.  God gave us the ten commandments and the bible to instruct us properly and protect us from all harm and evil.  Do we listen?  Or do we ignore the greatest  gift's that were ever given to us, from our parents,  at our holy baptism?  Some of us sadly, have chosen to walk away, and the pain that surro...

Father Gregory Cleveland, OMV in his book "Beholding Beauty"  opens up our mind, our heart, and our soul, spiritually to receiving the truth about ourselves through our Blessed Mother by reading the bible in particular in reading the Song of Song's.  You may not think of yourself as being closed, however, through circumstances that may have happened to us, we have the natural tenden...

I am given this honor, this great privilege to share with you my personal faithfilled journey toward Christ.  He has allowed me this time, a time of great grace to serve Him in this capacity.  I am on the last leg of my journey, however long or short God chooses,  and I know it, and that is what makes this podcast so meaningful, so important, that I must cease the moment in its entirety,  and sque...

Go out and preach the word of Christ crucified.  Go out and bring forth the word, the truth, the faith, the life, to a faithless world, we need to do our part right now, today,  in evangelizing our brothers and sisters, who have been knowingly and unknowingly wandering in the darkness.  The devil himself, a word smither, a deceiver, a lier, consuming souls in his confusion, belong solely to the Ch...

Those souls are remembered and reveared in a very special way today as we think about how our lives were inspired and enriched by their presence.  Even our friends who were sent to us by God himself, to encourage us when our family for what ever the reason,could not be there.  Those souls, those very kind hearted souls, are God's gifts to us.  I can remember so many that God had given to me i...

He, The Christ, knew us, before we were in our mothers womb.  No profounder words have been spoken to us today,  by our dear Pastor Father Patrick Francis O 'Doherty.  At  morning mass we were given the great gift to reflect upon Jesus, our Blessed Mother Mary, and all the Saints in Heaven, as we celebrated the special feast day of all the Saint's.  You may have a particular Saint in min...

Adoration in Christ, what exactly is it?  Adoration is when we enter into the silence adoring our precious Lord waiting for us within the holy monstrance.  We enter into the deepest silence and we pray, reflect, read, write about how our Lord is entering into our heart during that one very special full hour totally dedicated to him.  Growing up I did not have an adoration chapel, however the last...

How can we think like Mary and act like Mary on a daily basis? We Pray!  Prayer has to become a part of our daily life.  Prayer will direct our heart and mind and soul toward Mary.  The power of prayer has set my life in motion as a writer for Jesus, Mary, all the Angels, and all the Saints.  This pod cast exists because of prayer, and as my prayers have transformed me in this manner, you prayers...

Respect life....Do we?  Not exactly the way - that God expects us to.  We respect life by the way we live, and by the examples we set forth. It is very important that we educate one another in order to not fall into the trap of deception the devil has strategically set up for us. We can say no to him and yes to God.  We all know that the devil wants to destroy our soul and lock us up in darkness a...

I am eternally grateful to our Holy and ever Blessed Virgin Mary!  She has revealed herself to me very powerfully and I am sharing her truths with you to recognize her presence as an important one, in your life.  As Queen of Heaven, As Mother Of God, she is always with us!  Also, I would like to recognize an MFVA Friar for writing the January 2021 Newsletter of the Franciscan Missionaries of the E...

For all of those who thirst, all are welcome to the well of life!  That well of drinking water is Christ.  Christ is worth thirsting for!  Christ is worth knowing!  Come all ye who thirst.  Thirst for the truth.  Thirsting for wisdom of God.  The well overflows just for you.  Deep in the earth God created water.  Water to quench our thirst.  Water to cleanse our bodies.  Water to experience great...

The tiny palace of the soul.  Do you have any idea what the palace of your soul looks like?  Do you care to know?  You may be wondering about it today through the comments made by these wonderful saints, who felt compelled to share with us their spiritual journey.  I am so grateful to all the saints.  They have done a marvelous work for Christ, each one is unique in their charism and I think they...

Growth is all part of this -  our fantastic journey.  We have physical growth in our youth, as teenagers, and as adults.  We have psychological growth moving forward for the rest of our life.  We have and learn the art of emotional growth, as we mature in our relationship's with others.  All types of growth, are truly and absolutely necessary, as we go through life.  The most critical of all...
