These Last Days News - October

"I gave my life upon earth as a child. My little way was a way of love. True love seeks no self-gratification, but the well-being of the beloved. It is only in giving that you shall receive." - St. Theresa, March 25, 1973
Vatican Insider reported on September 26, 2013:
On Sunday 8 September, the day after the long prayer vigil for peace in Syria – when some passages from texts written by Saint Thérèse of Lisieux were read out – Pope Francis received a white rose as a surprise. Francis considers the flower to be a “sign” linked to the devotion of the saint. The Archbishop of Ancona and Osimo, Edoardo Menichelli broke the news, with Francis authorisation.
Pope Francis told him about the rose a day before the prelate was due to present a book in Pedaso, in the Italian region of Marche. The prelate recounted the story during the presentation. The book presented was an essay by theologian and writer Gianni Gennari entitled “Teresa di Lisieux. Il fascino della santità. I segreti di una dottrina ritrovata” (“Thérèse of Lisieux. The fascination of sainthood. Secrets of a rediscovered doctrine”) and published by Lindau. This was the book Francis took with him when he flew to Brazil last July.
“The Pope told me he received the freshly-picked white rose out of the blue from a gardener as he was taking a stroll in the Vatican Gardens on Sunday 8 September,” Mgr. Menichelli said. “The Pope sees this flower as a “sign”, a “message” from Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, whom he had turned to in a moment of worry the day before.” The Archbishop passed on the Pope’s greetings to those attending the book presentation, adding that he had been authorised to tell them about the rose. The Pope did not say anything about the white rose having any connection to the peace vigil for Syria the previous evening. But it is not hard to imagine that one of the Pope’s worries at the time was the international situation, the massacres in Syria and the West’s proposed intervention in the Middle Eastern country.
What significance does the white rose have for the Pope? Pope Francis mentions it in “El Jesuita” (“The Jesuit”), a book interview written by Sergio Rubin and Francesca Ambrogetti when he was still a cardinal. In a description the two journalists give of Pope Francis’ library in Buenos Aires, they write: “We pause before a vase full of white roses standing on a shelf in the library. In front of it is a photograph of Saint Thérèse. “Whenever I have a problem,” Pope Francis explained to the journalists, “I ask the saint not to solve it, but to take it into her hands and to help me accept it and I almost always receive a white rose as a sign.” Pope Francis’ devotion for the Carmelite mystic who died at the young age of 24 in 1897, was canonized by Pius XI and proclaimed a Doctor of the Church by John Paul II in 1997, is common knowledge. Francis himself told journalists about it on the flight back from Rio de Janeiro after World Youth Day. When she was still alive, Thérèse had promised that when she died she would shower “rose petals” down from the sky, a sign of her intercession. "A soul inflamed with love can not remain inactive … If only you knew what I plan to do when I’m in heaven … I will spend my heaven by doing good on earth.” So during the peace vigil held in St. Peter’s Square on 7 September, the mysteries of the rosary were recited along with passages from the Gospel and verses from a piece of poetry written by the saint.
The rose devotion and message did not begin with Pope Francis. On 3 December 1925 Fr. Putigan, a Jesuit, began a novena to ask for something very important. He also asked for a sign, to know whether his prayers had been heard. He asked for a rose to be sent to him. He didn’t speak to anyone about the novena or about the unusual request he made to the saint. Then, in the third day of the novena he received the rose he had asked for and his prayer was therefore answered. He then started another novena and on the fourth day of this prayer, a nurse/nun brought him a white rose and said to him: “Saint Thérèse sends you this rose.” So the Jesuit decided to spread the word about this “miraculous” novena which he named after the roses, making it famous worldwide.
My Novena Rose Prayer:
O Little Therese of the Child Jesus
Please pick for me a rose
from the heavenly garden
and send it to me
as a message of love.O Little Flower of Jesus,
ask God to grant the favors
I now place with confidence
in you hands.
( Mention your special prayer request here.)St. Therese, help me to always believe
as you did, in God's great love for me,
so that I may imitate your "Little Way" each day. AmenSay for 9 days and wait for a Rose from St. Theresa to arrive.
"I am Theresa of the Infant Jesus. I sought not the riches of this world, but hid myself with poverty of body but richness of spirit. I found in my obscurity a far greater glory in the light from Heaven.
"Follow my little way. Join me here in this glorious Kingdom. How worthless the things of the world when placed next to the glories of Heaven." - St. Theresa, October 2, 1970

Our Lady of the Roses Awesome Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/Bayside/ These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.
SECRET  TO  PIETY
St. 
Theresa - "Use the little way. Be simple of heart and thought and speech. For 
you must be different to come over the veil, my sister. Accept all trials. Use 
them for the repatriation of your brothers and sisters in purgatory. You will 
understand, Veronica, my sister, that soon you will look forward to receiving 
these little aggravations, for you are then given the opportunity to save more 
souls, my sister. You will understand.
   "Graces are given in the most strange ways, my sister. You will learn to love 
adversity, for it is the secret to piety."
   Veronica - I don't know if I repeated it, but it's very fresh in my mind that 
Saint Theresa has said that we should accept all adversity. We should look 
forward to even minor irritations, for they can be used as a point of grace, to 
receive grace that can be transferred to the suffering souls in purgatory. I 
understand that Theresa made it known to me that it is something that you will 
understand in time with practice. It is a simple way to Heaven. And Theresa also 
said now tonight and before, in the past, that you must be quite simple, 
childlike, in your approach to the world and on your way to Heaven, with the 
confidence of a child and a trust in the Father, accepting all in the will of 
God, giving your whole soul and human life into the will of God, accepting the 
Eternal Father as your guide as you would in a loving father.
   Theresa says there is no reason to fear the Father in Heaven, for He is 
all-loving. All punishment that is given to mankind has been indirectly willed 
by mankind. He has made his own punishment because he has turned away from the 
direction, from the direction from God the Father. It is a form of just 
chastisement and cleansing; for over the veil you must be as pure and holy as an 
angel to enter the eternal Kingdom of God. - February 10, 1978 
HUMBLE  LESSON
"I have come to give you a humble lesson, a lesson on the little ways of 
attaining your sanctification on earth, so you will be certain to enter the 
Kingdom. As you live your human life upon the earth, you will say to yourself, 
'am I pleasing my Jesus?'
   "Many must earn their daily bread. All must earn their daily bread upon the 
earth. In doing this they will do this with honor. Of the hours you awaken to, 
you will say, 'this day I give to please my God.' In this manner you will be 
directed in the light. 
   "You have all received in your baptism the opportunity to attain the Kingdom. 
The road is very simple to follow. You do not look for recognition among men. 
You look to please your God. You try to please your God. For if you try to find 
recognition and the approval of man on earth, you are doomed to great sorrow. 
For all the hours, the waking hours of your life on earth must be with one 
purpose in mind-that you are working your way back to the Kingdom." - St. 
Theresa, December 31, 1972 
CONTINUE  WITH  
CONFIDENCE
"I know, My child, that you have found the cross growing heavy, but We place 
great dependence and confidence upon you. The Father knows your great love for 
Him. Therefore, you will continue with confidence. We cannot promise you a life 
without suffering, for graces are not earned easily, My child, though they are 
given freely. However, you will follow the direction of your sister, Theresa, 
who has taught you her little way of gaining Heaven through suffering. 
   "My child, make it known that no suffering is ever wasted, for there are 
graces following behind these crucibles." - Our Lady, June 8, 1973 
TRUE  LOVE
"Listen carefully, Veronica, to my words.
   "I gave my life upon earth as a child. My little way was a way of love. True 
love seeks no self-gratification, but the well-being of the beloved. It is only 
in giving that you shall receive.
   "All must now retire from your world that has been given to satan. You will 
not have both. You must now pick up the cross and carry it. Only in this way 
will you stay on the road. It is a narrow road, and when you leave, it is 
difficult to find the way back.
   "The direction to the Kingdom has been given to you all the duration of life 
on your earth. It is a simple plan of love. You do not offend and hurt those you 
love; so why have you chosen to offend and hurt Jesus and our Mother, Mary?" 
- St. Theresa, March 25, 1973 
LITTLE  WAY  TO  
SANCTITY
"Prayer has given way to worldly pleasure. My sisters, you are truly foolish 
maidens. You have given yourselves as brides of Christ. A bride does not commit 
adultery in her heart. When you reject the Son of God, you truly commit this in 
your heart. The spirit has no part of the flesh. You must live in the spirit and 
fight the pleasures of the flesh. For these pleasures are not being used in the 
manner given by the Father.
    "Chastity and poverty, these are given for reason. Do not discard this 
little way to sanctity." - St. Theresa, September 28, 1974 
TRUST,  CONFIDENCE,  
LOVE
"Veronica, my sister, do not be saddened now. We have cried, and our tears have 
fallen upon you and the world. I have given--yes, I have left upon your earth my 
little plan for salvation, given me by Our Lady: trust and confidence and love. 
Love our Jesus, love our Father, and call to the Holy Ghost. No one is ever 
passed by unanswered. Satan seeks to remove from among you the existence of 
these truths." - St. Theresa, February 1, 1973

Knowledge must be gained for all the disciples of My Son, for you will be attacked by scientific minds.

	obstructions, insist that your children always wear a sacramental. One day

	these sacramentals. Guard your children well. You must awaken to the 
	knowledge that you will not be protected without the sacramentals. Guard
