WILL YOU ENTER INTO MY PASSION?

 Will You Enter Into My Passion?

April 14, 2022

My precious children, I invite you to enter into My Passion, My Death and Resurrection in a special way this year. I call you to enter into My Heart, as I enter yours in Eucharist. 

I call you to offer all your sufferings big or small in Union with My Sufferings, and the torment of our Mother’s heart, and that of My faithful Disciples who watched with me as I breathed my last.

I invite you into the depths of My Being so you can experience my pains, but far more how I endured all, and embraced all to bring you My Salvation. I embraced all the tortures inflicted on my body, and my mind, for you, My Beloved Children.

Come and see in a new deeper way what I have done for you individually and corporately.  

On Easter I desire that you celebrate My Resurrection more fully than ever, and that you shout with even greater joy: “Hallelujah, He is risen, IN DEED!”

Then, with even greater joy in your hearts, regardless of the circumstances of your world, go boldly into the world, bringing and preaching My Salvation to all you encounter.

Will you stay with Me, during My Passion and Death, comforting me for all those who reject My Love Offering, so you may receive in the depths of your being My Easter Joy?

ON EAGLE’S WINGS

 On Eagle’s Wings

March 30, 2022 

A precious soul, known to me, has been humbly close to God for many years. Recently, the Father has asked that their conversations, and other messages from heaven, be written down to be shared.

When I received this message this morning, and its focus was Psalm 91, I was certain that those who love Father Sam would appreciate the weaving of his favorite psalm into the Father’s response to this precious soul.

Also, what the soul implores the Father about in the first two paragraphs mirrors closely discussions I had with Father Sam particularly over the last year.

As well, both the precious soul and I sense Father Sam interceding that these messages will draw people into the loving arms of God.

Dearest Father,

The world seems to be crumbling physically and spiritually in front of my eyes. I ask for Peace in my soul now and the protection of my loved ones, family and friends alike. Help me to stay focused on You.

A distant relative of mine has recently died. A mother in her mid 50’s developed brain and lung cancer and died suddenly. Five years ago this would have been unheard of. Governments around the world are silencing those questioning their authority and mandated medical interventions. On the other hand, there are those who are going along with the agendas like sheep being led to slaughter. There are wars and rumours of famine and of financial collapse coming.

Father, protect us under Your Wings. (Psalm 91)

“Yes, I will hold you in the palm of My hand. I will protect you, I Love you and will not let you fall. It is My promise to you and to anyone who calls on Me with a sincere heart and wants to live in My Divine Will. 1. 

Learn to trust Me completely with everything. Do not allow doubt to enter your thoughts and when these thoughts arise, cast them out right away. Don’t let any fear within you. I am not a God of fear, but of love. Call out the name of My Son by saying, ‘Jesus help me’ and He will send angels to guard and protect you.”

1. God is telling us that if we live within His Divine Will, He will be our protection and our strength, and He will protect us and keep us safe from all evil.

Psalm 91 - New Jerusalem Bible

1 You who live in the secret place of Elyon, spend your nights in the shelter of Shaddai,

2 saying to Yahweh, 'My refuge, my fortress, my God in whom I trust!'

3 He rescues you from the snare of the fowler set on destruction;

4 he covers you with his pinions, you find shelter under his wings. His constancy is shield and protection.

5 You need not fear the terrors of night, the arrow that flies in the daytime,

6 the plague that stalks in the darkness, the scourge that wreaks havoc at high noon.

7 Though a thousand fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, you yourself will remain unscathed.

8 You have only to keep your eyes open to see how the wicked are repaid,

9 you who say, 'Yahweh my refuge!' and make Elyon your fortress.

10 No disaster can overtake you, no plague come near your tent;

11 he has given his angels orders about you to guard you wherever you go.

12 They will carry you in their arms in case you trip over a stone.

13 You will walk upon wild beast and adder, you will trample young lions and snakes.

14 'Since he clings to me I rescue him, I raise him high, since he acknowledges my name.

15 He calls to me and I answer him: in distress I am at his side, I rescue him and bring him honour.

16 I shall satisfy him with long life, and grant him to see my salvation.'

Finally, yesterday I posted on my own site another conversation the soul had with Our Father, and a prophetic message Jesus gave to the soul. Both are linked below.

The conversation with the Father is called Tell Them That I Love Them. It is a conversation that we can all have with this Father who loves us so much.

http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2022/04/tell-them-that-i-love-them.html

The prophecy from Jesus is called What You Must Do To Enter My Kingdom, and is all about forgiveness.

THE NEED IS GREAT

 2022-02-03                                        THE NEED IS GREAT                                               INRI

 

Who is to lead My people, the Nations, who indeed will bring them My Word, My Strength?

 

Do you now feel the urgency that I have placed upon you, My faithful ones, to tell others about the hope that is in you, the hope that many of the people do not have in God.

 

There will be no fear in you, for I will empower you for the mission at hand, you will have courage because of your trust in Me, I am forever faithful to those who trust in Me.

 

It will not matter how treacherous or dangerous the road ahead might be, for your eyes are constantly on Me, I am your strength and shield, in faith you comply.

 

With all that you will need, I bless you and enable the weak to become strong, you will be fearless in the face of the enemy, I will be with you to instruct your very next step and wise move.

 

The Holy Spirit will instruct you when chaos and confusion threaten to incite fear and doubt in you, He will breathe in you thoughts that are holy, that you may act according to My Will.

 

When I require you to act in the mission at hand, you will feel a peace that you will recognize as My presence with you and in you, listen to My Words to you at this time, it is important to the life and salvation perhaps of another.

 

The ordeal that has encompassed the world has really just begun, but it must proceed because of the outcome that is to follow, do not become angry nor discouraged at all that is transpiring around you, see in the Scriptures, just how I Myself handled problems that arose when I walked among you on earth.

 

Be at peace knowing that I still control all and that in the end I will put your enemies, every ruler, authority and power under My Feet.

 

The last enemy to be destroyed is death, pray more, pray with sincerity of heart, these are the prayers and sentiments that reach My Heart instantly.

 

The power and grace of My assurance is flowing in and through you continually until such time that you begin to engage with anxiety in your heart, opposing the faith that created peace within you.

WELCOME HOME FATHER SAM

 Dear Brothers and Sisters:

You are on the blog of Father Sam Johnston, who passed away at age 94, on March 24, 2022.

Father Sam was Spiritual Director for a number of people over the years, and was a much loved priest even in, and maybe especially in his retirement years. I have maintained this blog for him since it’s inception, and will continue as God wills.

But, on my own blog, I have posted Welcome Home Father Sam, which relates visions I received last night and this morning, of his arrival in heaven after his death, and which is corroborated by a quote, paragraph 777, from the diary of St. Faustina.

https://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2022/03/welcome-home-father-sam.html

May Perpetual Light shine upon him.

Michael Brandon 

Count Your Blessings

My First Real Encounter With Fr. Sam Johnston

Originally posted on 10/12/2009

This is an early account of my coming to know Father Sam Johnston, who passed away this morning at 94 years of age. Father Sam was very much of a Father to me from this first real encounter with him on October 12, 2009.

Though I and many others will miss him greatly, we will all be grateful for having had him in our lives, and for knowing that we have a personal prayer warrior in heaven.

I first met Fr. Sam over 15 years ago, when friends of mine, Barb and Wayne Zimmer lived in his Parish of St. Michael's in Ridgetown, Ontario. Though I was impressed with how much he was loved within the parish, I did not do more than meet him at that time. Recently, I met him again when I accompanied Wayne and Barb, who returned to London many years ago, as they led a Life in the Spirit Seminar at that same Parish of St. Michael's.

Because there was something he wanted to do on the Internet, or at least that was the hook, Fr. Sam invited me to come to his house in Ridgetown and share some time with him, ostensibly to discuss a possible blog. Well, if you are reading this you are probably reading it on the BLOG, so you know that we did discuss blogging.

But, yesterday I did not just meet Fr. Sam, I encountered Fr. Sam, and I am grateful for the opportunity and eager for more. The night before, I had a call from Father Sam, asking me to come earlier than planned and to bring my appetite. On various occasions in my life, I have had the pleasure of dining with a priest, either pastor or friend, but this was different. This was more than that.

On entering his home, some things immediately come to mind. Father's love for those he has met over the years, particularly Jesus, is evidenced by little pictures pushed into door frames, and icons and religious items spread throughout the kitchen area. His home is holy ground, particularly the kitchen, where we spent out time together. It seemed appropriate to me that we spent our time there, as the kitchen is the heart of the home, and no less so in the home of this man of God.

Father Sam shared many stories with me, most of which are lost for now, leaving mainly delightful impressions of a life well lived in faith and holiness. He also asked about my life and listened attentively, well . . . like a Father. He shared with me about how during his priesthood he had the experience of feeling that the term "Father" had come to have deep meaning to him as he had grown into being a spiritual father to those he shared life with. I felt that to be true as I encountered "Father" Sam.

I had my first turkey dinner of the season with Fr. Sam, as he had decided that he wanted to cook up a turkey that had been in his freezer for a time, and looked up on the Internet how to do it. Father Sam also likes to bake, so we had cake for dessert, and apple cider to drink that had come from the family farm of a now deceased priest colleague of his, who I had known as well.

The hook was sinking in. I could feel it.

We discussed using the Internet to share a large number of prophecies that had come his way during the last 35 years or more, and I have that file sitting beside me at my desk as I write this, and posted the first one last evening here. I hope to do justice to posting them all in the fullness of time though I have some other thoughts I discussed with Fr. Sam for the blog I was having in mind for him.

The hook was set.

Father Sam moved in for the kill, as in killing me with kindness and love. I knew before I went to visit him that I hoped to have the opportunity to have him hear my confession. I love the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and the grace that flows from it. Father Sam told me about places that he had heard confessions, coffee shops, retail stores, street corners, and so on. He thought he was reeling me in. I was already in the boat.

I knew that he loved hearing confessions and dispensing the graces of that beautiful sacrament, and he had said on another occasion that there was nothing new that he had not already heard and that he could not be surprised by the sins people confessed and how blessed and humbled he felt to be able to participate in this sacramental experience with those who came to him.

Since I was in the boat already, I asked him if he heard confessions at his kitchen table, knowing the answer. The dance was fun, but I was eager for the grace. He, of course prepared himself to hear my confession. To my surprise, even though he had foretold it, he was not surprised at my sinfulness. He didn't order me out of his house. Instead, he enveloped me in grace as I opened up about areas of my life that have been secret, even from me, at some level.

For my penance, I was to Count My Blessings on the way home, including looking in the bathroom mirror and counting that person in the mirror as a blessing. Father Sam also gave me a particular task of reconciliation to do that I will be doing as soon as possible. One particular blessing that I awoke to, was the blessing of having encountered Father Sam yesterday, and of getting to know him a bit, with the opportunity to have an earthly Father again, since my Dad has been gone for over 25 years now.

Before I left father invited me to pray the Liturgy of the Hours with him, the evening prayers. What a joy to be invited to share in that experience with him, and to be blessed by him at the conclusion.

After that we talked about something very dear to Father's heart, his time with Jesus daily. He told me how he gets up well before the crack of dawn every morning and comes to his kitchen and has coffee with Jesus, as he experiences his relationship with our Saviour. There are times, too many it would seem, that my mouth gets moving before my brain engages, and I asked him how Jesus took his coffee. He looked at me with a Father's look, and said: "Jesus doesn't drink coffee," like I should have known that. Sort of as in doesn't everybody who has a personal relationship with Jesus know that he doesn't drink coffee? Not a put down, just a statement of fact.

I left shortly after that to make my short trek home to London, and Father, well Father Sam was off to help hear confessions in Thamesville, about 20 miles up the road. While I had been with him he had taken two calls from brother priests to confirm that he would be coming to hear confessions over the next several days.

The kingdom of heaven is at hand. For some of us like Father Sam, it is really close at hand.

I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU

 2022-03-16                          I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU                               INRI

 

In My Father’s House, there are many dwelling places, and so I have gone to prepare a place for you.

 

That where I am, you may be with Me, I will return for you, My loved ones.

 

The earth is not your true home, but as My Father and I agreed that your Salvation should be accomplished through My suffering and death upon the Cross, I became Man for love of you.

 

I endured hatred and abuse at the hands of My persecutors, forgiving them all, leaving you an example to follow, in regards to all that you encounter in your lives while on earth, for I live in you.

 

You are all precious in My Sight, in fact My Eyes never leave you, though at times you have disappointed Me with the decisions and choices that you have made, I have grieved over the consequences that followed, and awaited your repentance to Me.

 

You were created to be Saints in Heaven, your true home, do not give way to discouragement nor despair, even as you will sometimes fail, and also disappointing yourselves, My love encourages you.

 

Reject all negativity and accept the power of My grace, let new found courage empower your resolve to become the person you were meant to be, confessing sin and forgiving yourself.

 

Because you are aligning your will with Mine and the Father’s Will, you will make progress in holiness and will be able to follow and do good works of Mercy.

 

So much confusion dominates your world today, and the Holy Spirit’s gift of Wisdom is sought by so few, may you seek His Wisdom always, without His gifts man trusts only in his own abilities, which are not able to overcome the destruction of evil.

 

With the knowledge that you belong to Me, and that your home is prepared in Heaven, does this not encourage you to do as much good, and bolster your resolve to charity towards your neighbour, who has similar struggles as you?

 

What you accumulate on this earth will not follow you in death, only your acts of charity and the good that you have done, these will be gems in your crown.

 

Therefore do not waste one moment more of your time while in the world, forgive as I have taught you and you will be forgiven, do all that you can to alleviate the hardships of others, for the faithful who obey await their reward.

 

I will come to receive you where I am.

Prophecy September 19,2004

Moving Back in Time

This prophecy came through Ann Donkers to whom the Lord gave His Words in poetry. Father Sam was her Spiritual Director.

These words from Our Lord are timeless.

BE STILL AND LISTEN CLOSELY.
TIME IS SHORT, AND I HAVE SO MUCH TO SHARE.
I AM CALLING YOU TO BE RECONCILED WITH ME, WITH ONE ANOTHER,
AND TO RETURN TO ME IN PRAISE AND PRAYER.

I DON'T CALL YOU SERVANTS ANY LONGER.
YOU ARE MINE; I CALL YOU FRIENDS.
THE SPIRIT OF FIRE IS HERE UPON YOU.
I WILL GO WITH YOU UNTIL THE END.

OPEN YOUR HEARTS, MAKE YOUR COMMITTMENT.
WAKE, AND DO YOUR FATHER'S WILL.
I WILL REMOVE THE DARKNESS THAT IS STILL UPON YOU
TO MAKE MY PLAN MUCH BRIGHTER STILL.

I WILL RENEW AND UNITE MY FLOCK, YOUR PEOPLE.
I WILL BE YOUR GOD OF PEACE.
I LEAD YOU THROUGH THE DEEPEST DARKNESS.
YOU WILL SEE YOUR GIFTS AND POWER INCREASE.

DEAREST CHILDREN, GIVE ME TODAY YOUR HEART,
YOUR LOVE AND UNDERSTANDING.
I, YOUR GOD, WILL DO THE WORK.
MY HOLY SPIRIT DOES THE PLANNING.

THE WORLD IS SOON TO BE REBORN.
PRAY THAT YOUR OWN WILL COME TO SEE.
GO, EVANGELIZE, NOW IS THE TIME
TO LEAD MY LOST SHEEP BACK TO ME.

I AM CALLING YOU TO PRAYER AND PENANCE.
A DEEP HUMILITY I DESIRE.
YOU HAVE PASSED THROUGH MANY VALLEYS,
BUT I WILL SET THE WORLD ON FIRE.

EARTHQUAKES, FAMINE, FLOODS, AND WARS ARE UPON YOU.
I SEE DARKNESS, HATRED AND PAIN.
BUT ALL OF THIS WILL COME TO PASS
WHEN MY PEOPLE TURN TO ME ONCE AGAIN.

I HAVE RESERVED THE BEST FOR YOU

2022-03-02                              I HAVE RESERVED THE BEST FOR YOU                            INRI

 

I wish to breathe new life into you during this time, place behind you your past and don’t look back!

 

Look ahead to the life that awaits you, the life that I have prepared just for you, then will your outlook on life itself be forever changed, you will have clear direction, focused, and not blurred.

 

Thus, you will begin to form a foundation on earth for the life that will continue in the hereafter, in the trust that it will eventually lead to your eternal reward in Heaven.

 

Can you understand, just how important are the words that you are hearing, for now you must decide, whether to continue as you are, possibly wasting precious time, or wisely investing in your future, just ask Me for I want to direct you.

 

When I created you I had high expectations of what and who you would become, have courage and zeal for all the graces are there for your taking, My faith is in you, you will not disappoint.

 

You would then influence others in your faith and trust in Me, and I would be able to use you at Will.

 

How different your words, your surrender and your resolve would be, you would feel My empowering grace ever enabling your work.

 

Don’t be afraid of the world’s affairs, tumultuous as they are, pray and leave your concerns in My capable Hands.

 

Each of your families have concerns, do not carry them alone, as if I were not in the picture, this would dishonour Me, you are not without help after all.

 

You are the King’s children, and are privileged to riches, do not live as paupers or orphans who have no Father nor resources to care for them.

 

Claim your sonship with Me, the Son of God, for I have gained everything for love of you, only the best have I reserved for you, do not ask Me for less than My best.

I WILL RESCUE MY PEOPLE

 2022-02-23                                      I WILL RESCUE MY PEOPLE                                  INRI

 

At this time many have abandoned Me, their speech is not pure, lying and deceitful tongues have given way to confusion and fear, but I will change their speech so that they will all call upon the Name of the Lord, their God.

 

The coming chastisements will bring them to their knees and they will call upon the Lord and will then serve Him with one accord.

 

I am about to remove the proud and haughty ones among you, those that have disgraced the nations and kingdoms, I will remove the shame of My remnant of peoples.

 

There will remain a people humble and lowly, who will serve Me and offer sacrifice that will be acceptable to God.

 

Their tongue shall not utter lies nor deceit any longer, but praise and thanksgiving will be in their mouths.

 

The land will be a refuge of peace and plenty, quieting and soothing souls that were once in turmoil, no longer will they be afraid.

 

Wait courageously now, keeping the faith that was given to each, do not let down your guard, for the enemy looks to devour the weak hearted among you.

 

Do not assume to know anything but My Love for you, draw nearer to Me surrendering yourselves to whatever shall befall you, as you go forth in the light of My grace.

 

I will rescue My people from wherever they have been scattered, I love them all, love one another with the love I Myself supply to you.

 

Your eyes do not see as I see, therefore resolve not to do anything that will hinder your neighbour from what I assign for him to do, your life is intertwined with others in ways that is not yet clear to you.

 

What you do here on earth is significant in the realm of the hereafter, correct what is possible to correct and forgive those who hurt you in any way, forgive yourself first and ask forgiveness of those you’ve caused hurt, the grace is abundant at this time, make good use of every opportunity.

BRAVERY IN THE FACE OF SUCH OPPOSITION

2022-02-16                  BRAVERY IN THE FACE OF SUCH OPPOSITION                      INRI

 

Let those who do evil continue in their way of filth and debauchery, and let those who do right continue in following My laws and precepts, I will bless their continued faithfulness.

 

You must maintain your peace of mind and heart by the power of My Holy Spirit, otherwise to be able to pray for your persecutors would be insincere at best, I am the God of Love and I empower you.

 

Continue doing good until I Myself intervene, for many who are evil, are walking your streets, they are trying to eliminate every sign and word concerning God, the One Who created them all, they want to be self sufficient and do without Me.

 

Promoting their own selfish agendas, they sacrifice to pagan gods, sacrificing their unborn children and youths as well, teaching them abominable lies as good.

 

They bow to the gods of financial gain, to the point of selling their very souls to the devil, nothing is sacred in the efforts made for monetary gain, their conscience contaminated, tainted by greed.

 

Deceptions, manipulations and coercions at every level of society, seem to be fair game to those who would use people for their own selfish gain, if the outcome is in their favor.

 

I will not dwell further on this growing evil in your world presently, but I desire that you concentrate on the trust that you have in Me for your future and that of all the earth.

 

Evil will not prevail, though those who do wrong, are of the mistaken opinion that they are winning the battle, they are misinformed and are convinced that the progress they presently enjoy will continue and grow.

 

I have a grand and glorious plan for the faithful remnant, a reward for all that you are now enduring in these perilous times.

 

Lift your heads My valiant soldiers, your Saviour and Commander comes, you who remain constant and trusting, continue praying for your enemies as I have taught you, you may be saving quite a few.

 

You are My Body now living and operating presently on earth, I am delighted to see your bravery in the face of such opposition, stand firm, you will not be defeated.
