During the 24th anniversary of TLIG, God gave His message through Vassula Ryden of TLIG, how to pray to Him:
Dear TLIG readers around the world,
Vassula writes:
I was asked by our Lord to give this message I received today (24th anniversary of TLIG) to everyone so that it is translated. This is not all the message, it’s much longer, but I was asked to give just this prayer to translate as well and distribute.
"Address Me Vassula in this way:
Tender Father, lash not Your wrath on this generation, lest they perish altogether;
Lash not on Your flock distress and anguish,
for the waters will run dry and nature will wither;
all will succumb at Your wrath leaving no trace behind them;
The heat of Your Breath will put aflame the earth turning it into a waste!
From the horizon a star will be seen;
The night will be ravaged and ashes will fall as snow in winter,
covering Your people like ghosts;
Take Mercy on us, God, and do not assess us harshly;
Remember the hearts that rejoice in You and You in them!
Remember Your faithful and let not Your Hand fall on us with force,
But, rather in Your Mercy lift us and place Your precepts in every heart. Amen”
In Christ,
Vassula

God is Calling us for Unity
I have been an avid reader of the messages of our Lord through True Life in God (tlig.org. It has helped to form me in God's ways though I am not perfect, and only God is perfect.
Today is 24th anniversary of TLIG and I would like to share with you their newsletter:
God The Father Spoke to Vassula on the 13th Anniversary of the TLIG Messages, These words:
(The Father leaned from Heaven and approached me...)
"My Vassula, nothing pleases Me more than when you gather yourself in My Presence; extol My Word; I, God, am looking down from heaven, into your room, flower; you have seen My Glory, you have tasted My sweetness and you have obtained My favour; before the mountains were born, before anything on earth had sprout, I had chosen you, My loved one, to sing a melodious tune honouring My Name thrice Holy and giving life with My Word to the dead; I had, My child, since your birth put you in My Angel's charge to guard you and carry you to Me; see? can any one say: "God has not displayed His Divine Power; God has not been mindful of His Love and Faithfulness to His creation;"
ah, Vassula, it has been thirteen perfumed years, thirteen years of anointed Messages confided to you so that you pronounce, to nations, My Will; I spoke and you believed .... I gave this immense treasure to you and filled your generation with the odour of My fragrance, and every soul that opened the window of her heart to Me was perfumed from within and without, My sweetness penetrating even to the marrow of the bone, fragrancing soul, mind and spirit .... did you not know that when I promise I fulfil?
My child, lean now on the same Heart which My Son, Jesus Christ, is nearest to - and remember: I will cultivate this generation and I will make them understand that immortality is found in being kin to the Triune God; My intention is to draw every soul into a divine and intimate union of love, deifying them in Our one Substance, and in Our one Will ....
O glory be to our Triune God,
God of heaven and earth,
in whose power all creation will bend its knees;
glory be to Him from generation to generation
in the Church;
Let us all proclaim:
there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism
and one God who is Father of all,
through all and within all;
and that there is one true theology:
that of contemplating God
in His Triune Glory and in His Divine Mystery!
be blessed; in the sight of all heaven, I, your Eternal Father, bless you giving you the unction of My Divine Love on your forehead; (Nov. 28.1998)

Barbara in Germany writes this about the TLIG prayer groups:
You want to meet God?
TLIG Prayer Groups are a special place to meet God. It is not just friendship and togetherness it is more, much more. Each prayer meeting is like the gathering of the disciples together with Our Blessed Mother on Pentecost. To join a TLIG prayer meeting means to enter the Cenacle and pray for the Holy Spirit to come. And He comes!
There are only few ‘little’ things to consider: stay small, humble, patient, self-effaced, gentle, meek and UNITED. That is the key! Unity!
In these groups we learn how to be united in peace and love and out of this unity in love all virtues come. In a prayer meeting we draw from His Heart and fill our heart. Each meeting is so unique for God knows what each member needs right now. The meetings are ever so blessed and often you have the feeling of being out of time and space and filled with so much joy like a little child. And indeed we are children…God’s children. Look at the faces in the beginning and at the end of a prayer group meeting and you will see the difference! Yes, God as a Father provides us with all graces we need to grow towards Him. You want to meet God? Go and enter His school of love and joy – join a prayer group! location near you? ask prayergroups@tlig.org
8. If you believe the messages are from the Holy Trinity and they have led you to a more intimate relationship with God - get tied in with the TLIG family contact your association or other volunteer areas and ask how you can help out even 2 hours a month. See all the areas of TLIG where help is always needed . http://tlig.org/en/contact/dir/
9. Donate to Beth Myriam or contact your local Beth Miriam how you can volunteer. Consider starting a new one. Go to http://tlig.org/en/bethmyriam/
10. Make a commitment to join in the international pilgrimages, national retreats where we all pray and live Unity- these things Fr. Otfried stressed as so important. Call or email your local association to make sure you on on their mailing lists so you know when events take place.
Father Tony's Suggested Meditation for the 24th Anniversary Of True Life In God :
Fr. Tony says; "we all have the responsibility to be "Apostles of the end of times"
April 3rd 1996
"...it had been said that at the end of times, Our Two Hearts would raise apostles, and they would be called: apostles of the end of times; these would be instructed by the Queen of Heaven and by Myself, to go forward in every nation, to proclaim without fear the Word of God, even when they would be drenched with blood, by the Enemy's vicious attacks, they shall not be broken; their tongue would pierce the enemies of My Church, like a double-edged sword, by exposing their heresies;
they would never stagger, nor would they know fear, because I would provide them with a spirit of courage; the destructive whip would not catch them; they would not leave one stone unturned; they would pursue the sinners, the lofty speakers, the great and the proud, the hypocrites, the traitors of My Church, they would pursue them with My Cross in one hand, and the rosary in the other; and We would stand by their side; they would shatter the heresies and build faithfulness and truth in their place; they would be the antidote of the poison, because they would sprout, like buds, from the Royal Heart of Mary; 4
these apostles of the end of times would call on God, their Father, and God, their Father, would call on their spirit; they would call on Mary, their Blessed Mother, and their Blessed Mother would call on them to become witnesses of the Most High; and the Holy Spirit would give them a spirit of zeal to be ready for God, to be ready for this Battle, that day, the haughty crown of the powers of evil will be trampled underfoot by the Woman adorned with the sun, and by all Her children;
the second Eve, in whom I have given enough power to overthrow Satan and his empire, will crush his head with Her heel; this enmity is not only given between the Queen of heaven and Satan, but it is given as well between Her children whose empire is in Her Heart, and the children of the Devil, who have built their kingdoms in him and through him, and who are in your days your biggest persecutors; many of these are worshippers of the Beast, the scholars and the philosophers of your times ....

Things are Getting Brighter
I had a call from my sister abroad re my current situation, trouble at home. A brighter light shines on me because of her call. She's an instrument of God, answering my calls. Distance is broken by the modern technology, it was as if she was beside me giving comforting words; that's my younger sister.
She offered a vacation for one month in their place which is very hard to resist. Here I come England!

After Darkness Comes Light
Darkness seemed endless when you suffer emotionally.I can now see that it had its purpose...I had a longer talk with God. My busyness was set aside just for Him alone.
I had God's shoulders to cry on.
It reminded of a long-ago happening in my life, the saddest part. But I was able to hurdle it after two years when I finally touched base with God. The healing was faster.
I still have to work on my relationships, not an easy one, but I'll get through it.

Another Dark Moment
We always hurt the one we love, says the song. But it's true, just what happened an hour ago.
I had a painful parting with my son because of a girl. I am accused of being selfish!
Selfish, when I give the best things for them and the remnant goes to me.
Selfish - when I sacrificed my career for them.
Anyway, when these moments come, I turn to God to ask for forgiveness, for the hurting words that each of us have uttered. Pray that everything will turn out right.
God allows these things to happen for a purpose. We just don't understand it. God's way is different from our way.
Pls. follow this link by Perry Marshall, so beautiful that it eases your pain.

Praising and thanking the LORD

Thanksgiving is Upon Us
By Dr. Tim
Thanksgiving is upon us. Because Pam and I are going out of town this week, we celebrated the holiday with our family on Sunday. Since then, I have been thinking about all of the things Thanksgiving means to me.
As my children get older (and I get older) I think all the blessings I have in my life become more and more apparent. For one, I am very grateful for my health. Sometimes we take our health for granted until the day we are sick. I am thankful for all the organs in my body which function 24 hours a day without me even realizing it. Did you realize your heart beats over 100,000 times a day? Or that you breathe over 1700 times a day? Just think about the functions going on inside each cell in the body as they create energy and metabolize waste on a daily basis.
As a physician, I spend a lot of time treating and healing things that go wrong with the body, and sometimes that makes me take for granted the wonder and beauty of the miraculous machine we call our body.
I am so very grateful for my family. I have the best wife and children any man could ever hope for. To watch what my children are choosing to do with their own lives as they grow and mature is indeed a great blessing. We have five children. While some may think five is too many, it has been a miraculous blessing in my life.
I am also thankful for the close relationships I have with my closest friends and extended family. What a blessing it is to know that you have people you can rely on if you need them. It makes me want to be a better friend myself.
I am very grateful for my businesses. Many times I get so caught in the day-to-day happenings of my businesses I forget how blessed I am to be able to do what I want every single day. Every day I get to work on exactly what I choose to work on. I work with the greatest bunch of people around, and I am grateful for each and every one of them.
I am grateful to live in America. What an opportunity. Despite our economic recession, there has never been a greater time or a greater place to live. We enjoy freedoms most people in the world would literally give an arm to have. If you make an average salary in the United States, you are in the top 1-percent of the world's income earners. Many in this world are still working for $1 a day or less. They would give anything to have the opportunities we have right here in front of us. I am thankful for the blessing of living in this great land.
I would also be remiss if I did not express thanks to those who protect it. Having served myself, I have a deep appreciation for those serving our country in whatever capacity.
As you get ready to celebrate this Thanksgiving, take some time to think about the things you are grateful for. Make a list of those things. Go for a walk by yourself, or with your loved one, and contemplate the blessings in your life.
The more we express our gratitude, the more blessings we seem to have. Inner peace comes not from getting what you want but from wanting what you have. Remember to live with an attitude of gratitude.
Happy Thanksgiving!
