This Novena prayer was given to Mother Eugenia by God the Father. We offer this prayer to emphasize it and encourage others to pray it. We have found it to be very powerful in rightly ordering one’s conscience again to the Good God, especially in times of confusion, spiritual lethargy and great darkness.

God is my Father
My Father in Heaven, how sweet it is to know that You are my Father and that I am your Child!
Especially when the skies of my soul are cloudy and my cross weighs more heavily, I feel the need to repeat to You: Father, I believe in Your love for me!
Yes, I believe that You are a Father to me at every moment of my life, and that I am Your child!
I believe that You love me with an infinite love!
I believe that You are watching over me night and day and that not a hair falls from my head without your permission!
I believe that, in Your infinite Wisdom, You know better than I what is good for me.
I believe that, in Your infinite power, You can bring good even out of evil.
I believe that, in Your infinite goodness, You make everything to the advantage of those who love You; even under the hands of those who strike me I kiss Your hand which heals!
I believe, but increase in me faith, hope and love!
Teach me always to see Your love as my guide in every event of my life.
Teach me to surrender myself to You like a baby in its mother's arms.
Father, You know everything. You see everything, you know me better than I know myself; You can do everything, and You love me!
My Father, since it is Your wish that we should always turn to You, I come with confidence to ask You, together with Jesus and Mary....(here request the favor that you desire).
For this intention, and uniting myself to their Most Sacred Hearts, I offer You all my prayers, my sacrifices and mortifications, all my actions, and greater faithfulness to my duties (*).
Give me the light, the grace and the power of the Holy Spirit!
Strengthen me in this Spirit, that I may never lose Him, never sadden Him and never allow Him to become weaker in me.
My Father, I ask this in the name of Jesus, Your Son! And You, Jesus, open Your Heart and place in it my own, and, together with Mary's, offer it to our divine Father! Obtain for me the grace that I need!
Divine Father, call all men to Yourself. Let all the world proclaim Your fatherly goodness and Your divine mercy!
Be a tender Father to me and protect me wherever I am, like the apple of Your eye. Make me always a worthy son/daughter; have mercy on me!
Divine Father, sweet hope of our souls, may You be known, honored and loved by all men!
Divine Father, infinite goodness poured out on all peoples, may You be known, honored and loved by all men!
Divine Father, beneficent dew of humanity, may You be known, honored and loved by all men!

The Meaning of the Consecration Medal.... “the Road Map back home”
|
|
|
|
|
|
"... He (God the Father) showed me what He desired for a medal, saying that the medal was His gift to us, that it showed His Love for His children. He described it as a road map back home to Him. He asked that the medals be blessed, saying that many miracles would come about through the Consecration and Medal. Our Father explained that the medal should be worn as an outward sign to all His children and that embracing this symbol would show His children's love for Him.” Therefore, a special medal was designed to illustrate the process of this consecration.
The Front of the Medal
On the front of the medal is the actual consecration process. God our Father is seen in heaven reaching down to us on earth; man is seen on earth reaching up to God our Father in heaven. The force of God's Love for us is shown in the rays that proceed down from His hand; the force of our love for Him is pictured in our "fiat" radiating up to Him. These rays intersect through the Cross of Jesus. This Cross is the bridge or link between God our Father and His children. At one end, it is grounded in the earth through Mary, our Mother. It then proceeds up through the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit into Heaven at the other end. Eight lights, signifying the Scripturally supported Octave, are shown on the horizontal beam of the Cross. These eight lights serve to guide us on our journey back home to God our Father.
The Back of the Medal
The back of the medal displays the eight-stringed harp of David, as mentioned in Psalm 6. St. Augustine understood this mystically, as symbolizing the octave seven days of this mortal life followed by the last resurrection and the world to come. And that during our mortal life, like David, we must also feel sorrow for our sins and repent of them while here on earth. On this eight-stringed harp we have placed the eight themes or steps of the “Holy Octave of Consecration to God our Father” praise, thanksgiving, offering, repentance, inheritance, fiat, fidelity, and consecration. Inside the bow of the harp are printed the words: "The rhythm and harmony of God's Will." This reminds us that when we pluck the eight strings or themes of this consecration to God Our Father, a beautiful music ascends to heaven - we are choosing to live in the rhythm and harmony of His Will.

GOD IS INDEED WITH US...
|
|
and wants to make His Presence more experienced!
|

The Holy Family is a microcosm or representation of the Most Holy Trinity with St. Joseph showing us our Heavenly Father, Mary being Immaculate was united to the Holy Spirit in a perfect way and Jesus as the Son, of course. But God also wants every kind of authentic “family” to follow this model of perfection so we may be “perfect as our Heavenly Father is perfect”

“...he that sees me sees the Father also. How says you, show us the Father? Do you not believe, that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I speak to you, I speak not of myself. But the Father who abides in me, he does the works. (John 14: 9-10)

SEEING WITH THE EYES
OF THE SOUL
Revelations of God Our Father to a Chosen Soul
|
|
|
|
|
The mini-site is dedicated to the 10th Anniversary Publishing of God the Fathers messages to Barbara Rose Centilli where He confirms His desire for Consecration to, and a Feast Day for, “God the Father of all Mankind”, so that His children will all return home to Him and thus bring to fulfillment the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart, Which we all so ardently long for.
And in celebration of this annual memorial of the proposed Feast Day being, August 3, 2008 this year, (The Father originally asked that it be on the 8th of August or the first Sunday in August, and if we were to have it on the 8th instead of the first Sunday this year it would be 8-08-08). Unknown to most people, these Revelations are in fact the origin of the format for the Consecration to God our Father and Barbara Centilli is the chosen soul who it came through! (The Father had announced to Mother Eugenia in the 1930’s His desire for a Feast Day only, in honor of the Father of All Mankind and unfortunately that had not happened even in her lifetime.) We want to promote this work that is so obviously Our Father’s continued effort in this request of His as well as His desire for a greater intimacy with His children and desire to reveal His “True Image” as our Father, and so want to make them more available and are so grateful that we now have the opportunity to do so. In these revelations God the Father said “8 is the Peace of God” and “After 8 days, I Myself will come.” In this year of “Eights”, we here at SDBV and all of His Consecrated children as well, desire to accelerate the “Great Return” of all of His Children to the House of their Father.
The Web-book contains the first part of book one (up to Chapter 10) of the "Seeing with the Eyes of the Soul" series. If you want to "discover" our Heavenly Father and through Him a greater understanding and love of yourself, order these books at saintandrew.com for a mere $3.00. each!
Because these words are directly from God the Father Himself, one will experience the most amazing mystery and adventure unfold before him...Thee Mystery!...God Himself in Who He is, His deepest thoughts and desires, His plans, His active relationship with us personally... and consequentially we come away with not only a knowledge and right perspective of what He's about to allow to bring the world back under His Dominion and our decisive place in that plan but also a renewed sense of our "special-ness" that comes from a greater certainty that we are in fact the offspring of Love.
JUST ANNOUNCED! VOL 6 AVAILABLE SOON (includes messages from the years 2001-2007)
