“If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever. This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him because he abides with you, and he will be in you. John 14:15-17
Now is the time of prayer. I have felt this of late. Less and less has the Lord poured words over me as he did in the past. I feel compelled towards the Rosary often. As the world spirals into the ways of destruction, it is as if we are to hide away in the upper room focusing not on the world but on the Lord who sends the Advocate. A great outpouring is near. It is the coming Epoch of the Holy Spirit. Illumination. Pray for it.
I have spent the past few weeks since mom’s passing rereading my journal. His personal promises to me regarding my mom came to fruition. I had prayed for a holy and a happy death. She was provided for. God is who He says He is.
I came across an entry from May 5, 2023 and I thought now is the time to share it. As always, if the church says what I have written is wrong then the church is correct and I am wrong.

Lord teach me how to pray as I ought. – Susan
Beloved Lily of the Father,
Pray for people, not things. Prayer is a movement of the spirit to strengthen the Body of Christ. The gifts of the Spirit move you to pray as you ought.
Fear of the Lord causes you to hate sin.
Counsel guides you in right decisions.
Knowledge is confidence in who you are and who God is.
Fortitude is strength of the spirit to withstand hell.
Piety honors and gives glory to God.
Understanding brings greater depth to Divine Revelation.
Wisdom – Jesus is the Wisdom of the Father, Wisdom walks in the way of Christ.
Pray for an increase in the gifts for yourself, it will become a gift of God to others.
Prayer is communion.

You are the second person in one day, that I follow, to state that you are receiving less words from God poured over you lately and that you feel the great outpouring of the Holy Spirit (the warning) is coming soon. I believe those with ‘spiritual ears to hear’ are all feeling the same way. I’m not sure how else to prepare than to stay in a state of grace, pray the rosary and practice my other devotions constantly and get to Adoration and Mass as much as possible.
Thank you for this blog.
Sue,
I hear it too. More prayer, especially the rosary. I have had St Jerome’s vulgate version of Genesis 3:15 impressed on me.
This word resonates deeply with me too, Susan. Only recently have I felt the tug to consecrate my Mondays to the Holy Spirit. As with many others, I too sense that the Warning is closer than we think. That to prepare for it we need to withdraw from communities of noise. Some of us will need to tighten the family circle. Your post makes it clear why I need to do this.
Communities of Noise,
Yes that sums it up
Monday is the day I pray for Priests…so interesting that you have felt that day as being for the Holy Spirit.
