Was a tough day yesterday and was feeling a bit down. And then i looked out my window and saw this! Sometimes God's signs of His love are in simplistic beauty. On this First Friday of month of November, I pray for you all and for the souls in purgatory.
It's amazing enough that she saw Jesus and converted from Islam two years ago, but also that she said that Jesus told her that He is coming soon. I also see this video today after my dream last night, which is amazing to me. I feel so much joy and relief in all of this. All the crazy stuff in the world right now means Jesus is closer than ever. Like Jesus said, birthing pains. Resurrection pains. I know it is dark and very hard for a lot of people, and I am not wanting to minimize their suffering. The body of Christ is in her passion and this deserves compassion and respect. This is why there is so much confusion. I used to rant and get frustrated with the never ending barrage of non-sense, but now I understand.
That’s probably the story of our time. But satan has so many strategies and allies (lefties; liberals; Churchmen, Catholic and Protestant; Jews; Muslims themselves and their murderous ‘doctrines’, that I think it will continue to be vastly under-reported. I did read a book (by a brave Protestant) some years ago describing the very high rates of conversion among guilt-ridden former Jihadists. There is going to be an avalanche of conversion in Nigeria, I suspect. And all sub-Saharan Africa will follow.
I’m sure Musk (now our first trillionaire), like most of our elites, has unimaginable money invested in this. They all need us to believe it to keep their bubble going. ‘AI’ is just a more resourced and efficient search engine. We will not be ruled by ‘AI’, but by those who best manipulate it to deceive.
I came to the conclusion that AI is a bubble/deception/distraction as well. No doubt it is a very powerful tool. But what strikes me as ridiculous with it is that it is alleged to increase production by 1000x, thereby replacing all human jobs. But it is people who drive demand, not machines. So what happens to AI when all the people can't afford their products, regardless of how cheap they are, because they have been replaced by machines? The wealth and machines will be in the hands of the few is what will happen. Which means in order to get anything a person will have to be compliant. We have seen this kind of economic model before in the times of slavery and feudalism. Both being the lowest order of governance of people. The opposite of civilization. If there was a genuine care to get people up and running, one of the first things we would see is mass production of cheap and easy to maintain washing machines worldwide. In some ways I think all the craziness in the world we are seeing is simply a script to buy time to get AI to where they need it for massive population control. I mean, this is their plan, but God has other plans.

I'm on my 2nd to last day of an 11-day road trip with my husband and kids. We stayed in Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia, and Kentucky. We're homebodies and basically stay in conservative Catholic circles, so these last several days have been filled with a lot more exposure to the world than we've been used to. Our last big trip to some of these areas was 9 years ago, and wow have things changed. First of all, Virginia was the worst by far, of all the places we stayed, with just how spiritually dead everyone's eyes looked. Very little friendliness, hard, cold demeanors, very edgy looks...and the smell of drugs and/or alcohol everywhere. The places we went to eat were not family-friendly (we didn't know this beforehand), as there were bad words and inappropriate sayings and images everywhere on the walls and in the bathrooms (not graffiti, like actually on framed decor and merchandise). People delivering food in our hotel were clearly high. I felt very uncomfortable nearly everywhere I went in Virginia. In Tennessee, we stayed in a family-friendly hotel that we had stayed in 9 years ago that was very catered toward children. But this time there were way fewer children, and a lot of middle-aged people that seemed addicted and/or flat and lifeless. I searched in vain for joy or light in nearly anyone's eyes. Here in Kentucky where we're staying tonight, there are a ton of people in this hotel and we've been up and down the elevators many times...and every time, whoever has gotten into the elevator with us has had the smell of drugs or alcohol on them. This is a nice hotel. It's just....everyone is on something. I just didn't realize how pervasive it was, and how empty people had become. It truly feels like a Godless world out here. I know there are good signs, that young people are beginning to convert, and our young priests are strong in the Faith, and God is still moving and working things for good...but this trip has shown me that people need prayers BADLY. When I look into some of these people's eyes, I see that they are already living in Hell upon earth. It feels painful to me.
You are very,very blessed that God has opened your eyes to see all this most people are spiritually blind to all this. It reminds of the feeling we can get leaving a Holy Pilgrimage Site like Medugorje and back to the World. It seems so dark and awful, like someone had turned off all the Lights. Perhaps it is my imagination but I feel when I hear some people talking that there is a kind of deadness in their voice. Like the music had gone. But on the other hand when I talk to the nuns of the people who go to daily Mass their voices kind of sing. Another thing is the sadness over so many people. They simply do not look happy. It reminds me of the Acts of the Apostles and in fact the whole New Testament. Christ has come into the World and we have His Church forming. But we see also that the writers see a clear difference between the Christians and the Pagan World around them. A kind of Light and Dark theme. A them and us thing. Now that the World returns to paganism we see this ourselves as the First Christians did, so clearly.
Yes. I think PurpleFlower's children are blessed to have her and her husband for parents. Jesus told us that He came into the world so that we may have life and have it to the full.
Ah! This happened to me yesterday when I was in line behind this "couple," the guy was giving me these weird vibes, he was so fidgety and though they were having a benign conversation there was something so off about it and then he turned and looked me up and down, and I just felt this feeling of disgust coming from him. I instinctly reached for my immaculate medal which had been under my shirt. I would have dismissed this episode if you hadn't shared yours. I sometimes think I am just being the crazy, religious, village lady when these little things happen.
https://www.lifesitenews.com/analys...k-to-pro-abortion-pro-lgbt-socialists-report/ "Conclusion Over the course of 20 years, the CCHD has provided over three-quarters of a million dollars to the United Workers Association. What is plain for all to see is that UWA is deeply involved in Socialist/Revolutionary movements, has an organizational history of supporting sexual deviancy (from its open endorsement of same-sex “marriage” in 2006 to its promotion of taxpayer-funded sex-change surgeries in 2025), and it operates two proxy organizations pushing abortion, sexual deviancy, and Socialism. This organization should never have qualified for a single penny from the Catholic Church, and had the CCHD performed the due diligence it claims to utilize in its “thorough vetting process,” that would have been the case. Instead, this stands as yet another example of the CCHD’s failure to protect Catholic funds and refusal to recognize and acknowledge gross violations of Catholic moral and social teaching. Once again, the Lepanto Institute is calling for the complete and permanent closure of the CCHD."
Yes, exactly! I told my husband a couple days ago, "The light has gone out in the world." I had felt before that the light was fading, but in Virginia in particular, the flame has gone out. At home in north/east TX, there are still many Christians left, and most public spaces reflect that. There is still decency and I can take my kids into restaurants without profanity on the walls. Jesus is mentioned on decor items. Virginia's indecency in the public square made me think of Pompeii...how there were lewd images all over the walls in public that were discovered in the ruins. Pompeii had rejected the message of Christianity, and their profane culture paid the price when Vesuvius erupted. I see how the saints wanted to give their whole lives to saving souls for God. A lifeless soul is a dreadful thing to behold, and when you meet their eyes on such a massive scale... You hear Jesus saying "I have come that they may have life, and have it abundantly... I have come to set the world on fire, and how I wish it were already burning!"
