"Let all mankind recognize My unfathomable mercy. It is a sign for the end times. Bring to me all devout and faithful souls, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. He who refuses to pass through the door of My mercy must pass through the door of My justice.”
Maria Faustyna Kowalska
"The selfishness of an age that has devoted itself to the mere cult of pleasure has tainted the whole human race with an error that makes all our acts more or less lies against God. The devil is no fool. He can get people feeling about heaven the way they ought to feel about hell. He can make them fear the means of grace the way they do not fear sin. And he does so, not by light but by obscurity, not by realities but by shadows; not by clarity and substance, but by dreams and the creatures of psychosis. And men are so poor in intellect that a few cold chills down their spine will be enough to keep them from ever finding out the truth about anything.
We stumble and fall constantly even when we are most enlightened. But when we are in true spiritual darkness, we do not even know that we have fallen."
Thomas Merton
"Do you not know that to whom you give yourselves as servants, his servants you become, whether of a corruption unto death, or of a righteousness unto life?"
Rom 6:16
"You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies."
John 8:44
"Love does not make you weak, because it is the source of all strength— but it makes you see the nothingness of the illusory strength on which you depended before you knew it.”
Léon Bloy
Stocks moved sharply lower in a volatile day but managed to finish in the green in the very light afternoon trading.
There seems to be a definite trend here.
Gold and silver were smashed and the dollar ticked back up in what seemed to be 'technical' reversals.
Silver is still in a remarkable intermediate uptrend. Very clear to see on the weekly chart.
The VIX is very low relative to its recent histtory.
The equity markets are primed for a decline, perhaps sharply.
Despite the stellar results from the likes of JP Morgan bank.
Need little, want less, love more.
For those who abide in love abide in God, and God in them.
Have a pleasant weekend.
