"Here is a generation that will not listen to the voice of the Lord its God nor take correction. Sincerity is no more it has vanished from their mouths".

The words of the Lord spoken through Jeremiah are as applicable today as when they were spoken to the Jews of old.I am living in a generation that is so secure in its self-esteem that it cannot entertain the view that there is anything wrong about it. Every day I see many users of the internet who despise the Church and all that she preaches.

The Church has faults but it is still Christ's foundation on St Peter. The attacks on the Church are in fact directed aginst God. We have to build up a wall of prayer that will protect us from the "Stronger man". Jesus is not saying that might is right but that we have to be vigilent to remain in the Kingdom. 

I cannot undestand how it has come to pass that most of my family do not serve God. I too have lived through the great social changes that have happened as technology has created the "Global Village".

My awarenes of life tells me that my consciousness is one of billions in the world and that we will all die. Only God  can tell me what happens then and God has revealed himself first through Jews and then through Jesus, the Son and man. I feel that we have at least  as great a need of God physically present with us as in the first Century. Come Lord Jesus come and save us from the devil's work that is proliferating throughout your creation.

Dear Father, Son and Holy Spirit receive my prayers and let humanity know that human freedom must not be misused. Mary and the Saints support my prayers and let every one of us know that if we choose Jesus then the evils of the world will pass away for our sins will be forgiven.
