For Many are Called, but Few are Chosen.
(Matthew 22:14)

Jesus Calling Matthew

Why are few chosen?  It is our decision that keeps us from being chosen.  Chosen for what.  Chosen for Heaven that begins here and continues into heaven.  How can we be among the chosen?  We must offer prayer and sacrifice for ourselves and for our neighbors.  The Four Men will help you to become among the chosen.  It is a way of learning to love prayer and sacrifice.  It is a way of becoming one with the mission of Jesus which is to save souls.  We bring souls to Jesus so that he can save them.  Do we save souls?  We help them to be saved through our prayers and sacrifices.   We help them get Grace from God to open their eyes.  To be saved as the paralytic was. 

Colossians 1:24   Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up those things that are wanting of the sufferings of Christ, in my flesh, for his body, which is the church. 

We do our part to fill up those things that are wanting of the sufferings of Christ in our flesh.  We sacrifice with Jesus to fill the Body of Christ with souls. 


1 Peter 4:13   But if you partake of the sufferings of Christ, rejoice that when his glory shall be revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.

Your sacrifices allow you to partake in the sufferings of Christ to help save souls and also to rejoice with exceeding joy.  

 
2 Corinthians 1:7  
That our hope for you may be steadfast: knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the consolation.

One of the greatest consolations on this earth is to see someone who you have been praying and sacrificing converted and brought to the same joy you experience.  That has to be the greatest joy on earth.  And as Father Ignatius Okoroji said, if you help save a soul you get a drivers license to heaven.  This is confirmed especially by James 5:20.   

 
Philippians 3:10   
That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable to his death,

We become true images of God though conforming to Jesus' sufferings and death.  Sacrifice is dying to self.  And rising to Jesus.

 
2 Corinthians 1:6 
Now whether we be in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation: or whether we be exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which worketh the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.

We become one with Christ in the Cross.


Romans 8:18   
For I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us.

Wow!
 

2 Corinthians 1:5   
For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us: so also by Christ doth our comfort abound.

Love and sacrifice brings you the peace that surpasses all understanding.  You turn all bad news into Good News through your voluntary sacrifice endured.  Offer it up to Jesus as a sacrifice for your paralytics. 

For the Love of Jesus, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sins against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Keep up the Great Work!

My Mom used to say that after we get sick is when we have a growth spurt. Through our sufferings GOD refines us so we can shine in as the Apache put it, the "Happy Place!"

Blessings,
Timoteo, OFS

Three years ago I was made aware of this Scripture," Job... rising early and offering sacrifices for them. (his children) For Job said,"It may be that my sons have sinned and blasphemed God in their hearts." This Job did habitually." Job 1:5. I felt God was telling me to make sacrifices for my children every day, habitually. And I thought to my self what would be the best thing, most precious thing I can offer to God on behalf of my children? The most precious, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of His dearly beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. And so I have done so ever since.
This why this prayer group caught my attention it seems to be the same mission. Our paralytics are souls who need to be brought to Jesus. Sacrifices must be made on their behalf. God bless all you brothers.

What are we about as members of the 4 Men Prayer groups? We reaffirm on a daily basis the value of prayer and sacrifice in bringing paralytic souls to Christ.

Here on the 16th day I sit back and reflect on this message. I've heard it so many times "Many are called, few are chosen" and each time I am in awe that I have been called...am I ready for the next step, the next adventure, the next adversity, the next struggle, the next joy...

I pray earnestly to my God and Savior that He will provide me with the graces needed to continue on in His Love and in the joy of the fullness that only He can provide.

These prayers and this movement are powerful and have had a great impact on me. I always have prayed for the souls in purgatory, but now I am moved not only for them, but for the conversion of the paralytics I pray for. Do you pray for more than 1 paralytic? I know that I pray for many people when I mention my paralytics. There are so many broken souls. So many, who are lost. Pray, pray, pray.
