Consecration to the Sacred Heart

On these times where we are seeing many changes to our planet and more changes to come and seeing how the human consciousness is being diminished we need more of Celestial assistance from Our Lord and Blessed Mother

Precisely last night I had another vision of another earthquake and how people are dormant to all the changes in our planet and they are continue to live asleep to the fact that our planet needs our help, pray and always be grateful for the majestic planet we are given, the beautiful mountains and all nature. In my vision I was seeing how these majestic mountains are breaking in pieces, some in half and just destroying all around them, keep this planet in prayer.
This consecration to the Loving Sacred Heart of Jesus is so He can reside always in our hearts and our love ones to show His Love and protection

Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, to Thee I consecrate and offer up my person and my life, my actions, trials, and sufferings, that my entire being may henceforth only be employed in loving, honoring and glorifying Thee. This is my irrevocable will, to belong entirely to Thee, and to do all for Thy love, renouncing with my whole heart all that can displease Thee.
I take Thee, O Sacred Heart, for the sole object of my love, the protection of my life, the pledge of my salvation, the remedy of my frailty and inconstancy, the reparation for all the defects of my life, and my secure refuge at the hour of my death. Be Thou, O Most Merciful Heart, my justification before God Thy Father, and screen me from His anger which I have so justly merited. I fear all from my own weakness and malice, but placing my entire confidence in Thee, O Heart of Love, I hope all from Thine infinite Goodness. Annihilate in me all that can displease or resist Thee. Imprint Thy pure love so deeply in my heart that I may never forget Thee or be separated from Thee.
I beseech Thee, through Thine infinite Goodness, grant that my name be engraved upon Thy Heart, for in this I place all my happiness and all my glory, to live and to die as one of Thy devoted servants.
Amen.
. -- St. Margaret Mary Alacoque

Altered Art Catholic Wearable Shrines

I love creating altered art shrines as a piece of jewelry to display your faith and devotion and be able to wear and carry with you as you wear it.

Recently I created this piece honoring Our Beloved Sacred Heart of Jesus using a vintage  hand painted pocket statue inside a heart locket and embellished with beautiful rhinestones.

I used one of God's beautiful creations, which are the gemstones  (  showing the beauty in all of God's creation and how we can see God in everything)

Rough 12mm x 22mm Strawberry  Tourmaline;

" The Whole Earth is a living icon of the face of God"  St. John Damascene

I also created these other pieces of altered art shrines honoring Our Lady of Lourdes and Our Lady of Miraculous Medal - on the Our Lady of Lourdes locket shrine I used stunning vintage celestial aqua color crystals embellishment (signed Wiesner); handmade and hand painted 1 1/4" plaster (sealed) pocket statue of Our Lady of Lourdes, one Hail Mary and one Our Father beads from vintage broken Rosary; beautiful image of Sacred Heart surrounded by angels transfered unto fabric giving it a look and feel of canvas

On the pocket watch shrine honoring Our Lady of Miraculous Medal, I used a pocket watch, which I love because of the glass and it displays beautifully everything inside, specially the pocket staute.   On this necklace I also used a vintage pocket statue and vintage lace

Saint Claude de La Colombière and the Sacred Heart Devotion

The Jesuit Priest St. Claude de la Colombière was the first to believe in the mystical revelations of the Sacred Heart given to St. Margaret Mary in Paray le Monial Convent, France. Thanks to his support, St. Margaret Mary’s superior also believed, and propagation of the devotion to the Sacred heart was started.

St. Claude not only believed, but dedicated his life to propagate the devotion, always spiritually united to St. Margaret Mary and trusting her discernment.

Prayer of Confidence


My God, I firmly believe that Thou watchest over all those who hope in Thee, and that we can never want for anything when we rely upon Thee in all things; therefore I am resolved to live in the future with no anxieties, and to cast all my cares upon Thee . . . Let others seek their happiness in their wealth or their talents; let them trust in the purity of their life,  the severity of their mortifications, the number of their good works, the fervor of their prayers: "For Thou, O Lord, singularly hast settled me in hope."


As for me, Lord, in my very confidence lies all my hope. Such confidence can never be in vain. "No one has ever hoped in Thee and has been confounded." Therefore I am assured of my eternal happiness, because I firmly hope for it, and all my hope is in Thee. "In Thee, O Lord, I have hoped; let me never be confounded." I know, alas! I know all too well that I am frail and changeable; I know the power of temptation against the strongest virtue. I have seen stars fall from heaven and pillars of the firmament totter; but these things do not alarm me as long as I hope in Thee. I am sheltered from all misfortune, and I am sure that my hope will endure, for I rely upon Thee to sustain my unfailing hope. 


Finally, I know that I can never hope too much in Thee, and that I will never receive less than I have hoped for from Thee. Therefore, I hope that Thou wilt sustain me against my evil inclinations; that Thou wilt protect me against the most furious assaults and cause my weakness to triumph over my most powerful enemies. I hope that Thou wilt love me forever, and that I will love Thee also, unceasingly. And to carry my hope all at once as far as it can go, I hope for Thee Thyself from Thee, O my Creator, for time and for all eternity.

Catholic Relic Touched to the Holy Sudarium of Oviedo Reliquary Locket

Today I was inspired to create locket shrines including this very special locket reliquary.

It's a very special locket reliquary that includes a special relic touched to the Holy Sudarium of Oviedo.

"Divine Love" Valentine's Day Sacred Heart Catholic Medals Religious Bracelet

Prayer to the Sacred Heart by Saint Francis De Sales

May Thy Heart dwell always in our hearts!

May Thy Blood ever flow in the veins of our souls!

O sun of our hearts, Thou givest life to all things by the rays of Thy goodness!

I will not go until Thy Heart has strengthened me, O Lord Jesus!

May the Heart of Jesus be the King of my heart!

Blessed be God. Amen.

I wanted to create a bracelet that expresses the Divine Love Our Lord has for us.  We normally celebrate Valentine's Day giving to love ones or people we love but sometimes we don't realize His Divine Love that should also be celebrated and with this bracelet I wanted to convey that Love.

I used a beautiful vintage cameo.  I used lampwork heart beads and teardrop shape beads representing His bleeding heart.  Other Catholic medals I used are St. Therese, Padre Pio, Blessed Sacrament, Our Lady of the Well and others., a one decade rosary using Olive Wood beads from Israel, very special beads.

May His Divine Love always well in your heart.

There is something about lace that I just love, it may be the elegant romantic appeal to it and to be able to

wear it with so many embellishments and be able to use it to honor Our Blessed Mother and Our Beloved Sacred Heart of Jesus, it's an indescribable joy.

Recently I was inspired once again to use vintage lace to create these pieces using vintage pieces as well including a vintage St. Ann Chaplet in one

 I used a small pocket watch face to add a beautiful vintage Sacred Heart of Jesus medal inside and adorned it with rhinestones.
