ON BEING PROCLAIMED A FALSE PROPHET AND HOW TO HANDLE PERSONAL ATTACKS ON ONE'S CHARACTER

I visited the Catholic Planet website today to review The Secrets of Garabandal, Medjugorje and La Salette interpretations in light of the recent Mumbai, India attacks. I fear that this may be a sign that the revelations are coming true and the Warning is close at hand. I have to prepare myself and my family for hard times ahead. I have to stop slacking off and pray harder, offer more sacrifices and serve the poor. As I was looking for inspiration and clarification in these trying times, I chanced upon the author's page on Claims of Private Revelation: True or False? . And on no. 173 it says: Wenko Pasco - Taguig City, Manila, Philippines (http://deathtomycreditcards.blogspot.com/) - her website is about her problems with credit card debt and mishandling her own money; she claims a private revelation in which she was chosen by God to raise a very large sum of money to build a cathedral; there is no involvement of the Bishop or diocese in her project; she claims the cathedral will be a replica of a cathedral in Italy. She claims its garden will provide food for a city during a famine, but it is only on one hectare of land. She claims those who donate get special protection from Michael the Archangel, and that the cathedral will be a place of refuge during the tribulation (an idea often found in false private revelation). She claims that the present time is the 'end of days'. She claims that her parish church has hauntings from demons, and that she was chosen by God to exorcise those demons.

The first time Mr. Conte emailed me himself about me being a false prophet of some sort I was enraged. I wrote a blog about it and gave him a piece of my mind when I replied to his email. But I had no idea that I was even published on his site. Now that I actually saw myself listed in there I was pretty amused. Wow! I felt like some sort of celebrity. Important and smart people are actually reading my blog and commenting on my work. This is a very good accomplishment for me. You probably think I'm crazy but as Winston Churchill once said : You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life. It means that I have touched their lives or have awakened their spirit in some way. Yes, Mr. Conte you're probably right. God did not choose me to raise money to build St. Michael's Cathedral. We even lost that 1 hectare of land that was donated to my friend Fr. Bernie, for the owner changed his mind and retracted it. I am still in debt and poor and lukewarm in faith. I have yet to be married in church because I can't afford it. I'm not a perfect wife or parent to my children. I'm no Mother Teresa to my neighbors who beg on the streets looking for food. Heck I even have a hard time praying the 15 Prayers of St. Bridget religiously everyday. But you know what sir, I will never give up. How can I stop believing and praying when Jesus and Mary and the Sto. Nino (Infant Child of Prague) have shown me their faces and have visited me in my dreams. They have shown me the truth about the evil of medical doctors and pseudo-science. We have been blessed by all the wonders of nature and the abundant resources of this planet. I have been humbled by Jesus' mercy and the lovings Hearts of His own and His Mother. Inspite of the evils of this world, I see beauty and peace because Jesus and Mary and St. Michael are alive in my heart, my mind and my spirit. Yes I am a big failure and I don't have many accomplishments or awards. But I fear the Lord and I live to serve Him. I listen with an open heart and mind and I long for others to feel the same way about God and His Church. This is why I have this blog. I want others to be closer to God and show them that God is reachable and is ever present even to ordinary moms or everyday losers like me. Folks, it is possible to see Jesus and Mary while you are still alive and sinning and unworthy. It took me almost 30 years of mediocrity to finally grasp the presence of Jesus and Mary and St.Michael in this life (not to mention other saints as well, but that story is for another blog article) but it is well worth the wait. I don't really have advice on exactly what one should do in order to have your own Marian apparitions. But if you persevere in prayer (especially at least one rosary a day and pray the 15 Prayers of St. Bridget everyday until you pass away) God will work miracles in your life, I guarantee it. He or Mama Mary may not show their faces in your life but you will feel their loving Hearts and you will never be alone in fighting the evils of this world. You will experience Jesus and Mama Mary embrace you one day during prayer and if you fast and sacrifice for others then They will truly touch your lives. Or you can just read or watch Bro. Bo Sanchez and his show the Preacher in Blue Jeans and you will be inspired and invigorated. I love Bro. Bo because he is so humble and funny. And like me he has his own detractors ahehe.
Not everything in my life is tragic. No siree. Believe it or not 3 weeks ago Mama Mary came to me. She didn't speak but she let me know that there is good news for me and my family. If anyone of you will remember in the Introduction of this blog that God will deliver me from my debt, well things are looking up. You see my grandfather died and he owned hectares of land all over the city and he didn't have time to impart his riches to his children. After more than 3 decades these properties were found by God's grace and my children will soon be heirs and one cute heiress. I believe God wanted them to be found so that the money we will raise will go back to His church. I may not be a celebrity (not quite) or an important political or social person but Jesus is good and non-judgemental. He has made my life incredibly blessed and meaningful and I want to share it with others. I will still push through with my plans to honor St. Michael and build Sanctuary, a Cathedral in his honor. I will help spread devotion to him and to Padre Pio and of course to the Sacred Hearts of Our Lord Jesus Christ and Mother Mary. And don't worry dear readers, you are all in it for the ride. Thank you Lord and Mama Mary for loving me and choosing me as Your humble and faithful servant. I pray that I will make a difference with this blog and with my inheritance. I will give it all back to You Lord, the source of everything good and eternal. Amen.
