Wake Up, It’s 2021

There is absolutely no doubt that “happiness” is not a key ingredient in what the “Elites,” or “Globalists,” or “Puppet-Masters” are planning for us this year! They might well try to wrap their plans and actions with “happy wrapping paper” ― but once you open the package, you will find that “happiness” is not in this New Year package.

Yet does that rule out and destroy our spiritual happiness? The answer is: Not at all. In fact, it is just what we need to boost our well-being and peace.

Holy Scripture says: “We know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints” (Romans 8:28).

Our Lord tells us to find comfort in suffering: “Blessed are they that suffer persecution for the sake of justice―for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. Blessed are ye when they shall revile you, and persecute you, and speak all that is evil against you, untruly, for My sake! Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is very great in heaven. For so they persecuted the prophets that were before you!” (Matthew 5:10-12).

St. Paul says: “God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ; by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world” (Galatians 6:14).

As Christians, what on earth do we expect from the world? Love? Adulation? Praise? Our Lord makes it abundantly clear what we must expect: “He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life for Me, shall find it.” (Matthew 10:39).

We―who are always ready for a party―are not very impressed with such talk from Our Lord. We expected better! Our Christmas and New Year celebrations are meant to be “fun” ― yet Our Lord seems to be the proverbial “party-pooper”, killjoy, sourpuss, stick-in-the-mud, wet blanket or doomsayer.

As it is, the events that are seemingly being lined-up by the world’s governments ― who are actually governed by the unseen “Globalists” or “Elites” or “Money Men” ― do not promise to make this a very ‘Happy’ New Year. These “Magi” are not bringing gifts that we are pining for and impatiently awaiting! Their “gold” is the “gold” they will make through their vaccines―an average profit of over $750 for every single $1 invested―while the world is increasingly impoverished and forced into debt. Their vaccines, far from being “Frankincense” are more likely to make “Frankensteins” of the population with their DNA altering ingredients. Those same vaccines, far from being “Myrrh”, risk being “myrrh-derous” or murderous.

Yet, they can do nothing without the permission of God. He remains always in charge and always omnipotent.

Catholics, without a doubt, deserve to be punished. For we are meant to be soldiers of Christ and not puppets of the world. We are meant to be the “salt of the earth” and the “light of the world” (Matthew 5:13-14). Instead, we have turned to jelly and our minds are in darkness.

Jesus “was the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not” (John 1:9-11). “The light is come into the world―and men loved darkness rather than the light: for their works were evil” (John 3:19).

He was born into poverty, born in a cave or stable for animals, born without any comforts, born suffering the cold weather and the cold hearts, born into persecution with the murderous Herod seeking to kill Him at the very outset of His life!

This was not a party! This was not fun!

Let us not twist the message of Christ and divorce this Christmastide from His mission to suffer and die for us ― and His message that we must suffer and die for Him! Let us not turn reality into a fun-fest dream or illusion.
