Obituary of Iris Yawney
I want you to know how I came to understand the Blessed Mother more deeply after I made a retreat I made with Father Rusak - God bless him especially for that - I understand the Blessed Mother was created higher than all creation - more than the angels because God is so awesome. He could not be born to a regular woman so she is the highest also born without original sin - She is God’s Mother! Think of that!
I write my last thoughts to you-Thanking My Heavenly Father for the gift of life and all His Divine Providence through the years. My Gratitude to the Blessed Mother, my Guardian Angel and all the Saints who helped me in my days. My gratitude to my Mom and Dad and all my family for the Love and Comfort that they have given me, and to Thank Jesus for the Sacraments and the Holy Communions all my life. There are No Words…Just love Him-Love Him. Thank you for all who prayed for me and were my friends. God will reward you.
My Greatest wish is that you come so close to Jesus and His Blessed Mother and do that by making them your special friend. When you have a spare moment say a few words: Jesus, Mary and Joseph or Sacred Heart of Jesus, have Mercy on me a sinner. I usually say Jesus I Love You. He so much wants our Love! The Rosary must be primary everyday.
We know from the Bible if you do good God rewards you a hundredfold, but if you do bad you will also get a hundredfold that you must pay for the harm and it is taken out of you by punishment - either purgatory or hell, depending how bad it was.
God has given us the Ten Commandments to help us not to fall into error.
Lastly the world will go into much chaos, your greatest help will be to surround yourself with prayer so the evil forces cannot break through. The Rosary is the most powerful next to the Divine Liturgy Our Mass- go to the Website The Power of the Rosary- the Stan Fulton story and see what a Miracle was given to our Canadian Squadron in WW II.
Our Grandmother had a very great Devotion to the Rosary- I remember it was always in her hands all through the day… She prayed and prayed, she had a constant saying “They will be done”.
Lastly remember everyday - God Loves you and with eternal Love- He died for You - God is Love - Do pass on some of His Love everyday - How blessed you will be! and may God’s Will be done.
