COMMENT:
Sister Wendy Beckett.
Spiritual Letters, 1213 Orbis Books
The MAGNIFICAT
magazine, Meditation of the Day, has the title, ‘Martha’s Anxiety’.
Sister Wendy is
gifted in naming the titles her contemplation of paintings, giving the clue to understanding
the subject.
Is it that ‘Anxiety’
could be attributed to St. Martha?
In fact, at the end
of the book, Sr. Wendy expresses the thought simply “On Anxiety”.
When
I see the eight illustrations of the book, the spiritually will be further illuminated

Martha's
Anxiety
Worry
is a canker. And it's self-regarding. Whereas all our real life is in Jesus.
The
function of anxiety is surely to alert us to our dependence on him and to the
fact that he alone matters. It is a most useful feeling. It says: You are
fragile, unrealised, not in charge of your life, in danger of... therefore turn wholly to Jesus. The
feeling mayor may not diminish but the direction out of self's narrowness into
his love has been conquered. We have to go on and on until finally we live out
of self, in him....
The
great thing to grasp is that to feel "relaxed/happy" or to feel anxious
is unimportant. Feelings only matter as an occasion for love. Happy, secure
feelings prompt us to praise him; sad, anxious feelings prompt us to express
our faith and pray for him to be all in all to us. The feelings themselves tell
us nothing about our "state" which is God's secret and God's work. We
don't base anything on ourselves but only on him, on his goodness, knowing, as
Paul says, in whom we have believed. Why are we anxious? Let's will to have
Jesus as our holiness. Gradually even the feeling vanishes, but that is unimportant.
We
can feel that growing in love should make life "easier” – that there is
some failure in our fear, temptation, struggle. Not so. In fact the tempest may
blow more severely as we near harbour. Jesus could never know a psychic
respite, as the Gospels show. But our attitudes change. We cease to be afraid
of fear; we open our arms to the will for the Father to give us whatever he will,
knowing, in Jesus, that he gives only "good things".

Are you *currently* being sent into Hell forever ... automatically excommunicated (outside) of God’s Catholic Church ?
Answer: Yes you are ... you can reverse it ... please continue.
Council of Florence, Session 8, 22 Nov 1439 -- infallible Source of Dogma >
"Whoever wills to be saved, before all things it is necessary that he holds the Catholic faith. Unless a person keeps this faith whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish eternally."
You must believe the Catholic Dogma to be in the Church ... Dogma you have *never* seen.
Site > Immaculata-one.com ... infallible Dogma throughout.
The Catholic Faith *is not* Bible interpretation ... it is the Catholic infallible Sources of Dogma. The Catholic Church didn’t even define the Bible’s New Testament Canon until 397 A.D. at the Council of Carthage.

Can a group which enforces the opposite, the opposite, and the opposite of the Catholic unchangeable Dogma be the Catholic Church?
No, it cannot possibly be the Catholic Church ... and promotion of the opposite of the Catholic Dogma is exactly what the vatican-2 heretic cult does ... and has been doing since it’s founding on 8 December 1965 at the Vatican.
The vatican-2 heresy does not have the Office of the Papacy ... only the Catholic Church has the Papacy.
The Dogma cannot “change” or be “reversed” ... God does not “change”.
The founding documents of the vatican-2 heretic cult … the “vatican-2 council” documents … have well over 200 heresies *against* prior defined unchangeable Dogma. Every (apparent) bishop at the “council” approved the mountain of heresy, which caused their automatic excommunication, see Section 13.2 of the below site.

Section 12 > Anti-Christ vatican-2 heresies (50 listed) ... followed by many Catholic corrections.
Sections 13 and 13.1 > Photographic *proof* of heresy at the Vatican.
Because of … the Catholic Dogma on automatic excommunication for heresy or for physical participation in a heretic cult (such as the v-2 cult) …
… we were all placed, body and soul, *outside* of Christianity (the Catholic Church) on 8 December 1965 … the close date of the “council”.
Section 13.2 > Catholic Dogma on automatic excommunication for heresy or participating in a heretic cult such as ... vatican-2, lutheran, methodist, evangelical, etc.
Section 107 > St. Athanasius (died 373 A.D.) ... “Even if the Church were reduced to a handful ...” - - during the “arian” heresy ... we are there again, but worse.
Section 13.3 > Matt 16:18, Gates of Hell scripture ... is *not* about the Office of the Papacy ... four Dogmatic Councils defined it ... that heresy will not cause the Dogma to disappear.
Section 13.4 > The vatican-2 heretic cult does not have the Office of the Papacy only the Catholic Church has the Papacy.
Section 13.6 > The Catholic Dogma on Jurisdiction and Automatic Excommunication for heresy define that ... God has allowed Catholic Jurisdiction ... for Mass and Confession to disappear from the world. There is no such thing as Catholic Mass outside of the Catholic Church.
Non-Catholic heresies such as “vatican-2”, “sspx”, “sspv”, “cmri”, etc. ... do not have Catholic Mass.
Section 19.1 > Dogma on Abjuration for *re-entering* Christianity (the Catholic Church) … after being automatically excommunicated. A Formal Abjuration is provided here also.
Section 10.2 > Returning to a state of grace, in places and times when Confession is not available, like now.

Second Council of Constantinople, 553 A.D. -- infallible Source of Dogma >
"The heretic, even though he has not been condemned formally by any individual, in reality brings anathema on himself, having cut himself off from the way of truth by his heresy."
Blessed John Eudes, died 1680 >
“The greatest evil existing today is heresy, an infernal rage which hurls countless souls into eternal damnation.”
