A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul

Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.


Messenger: We exist, in love, in the rosary.

We wish only love for others.

We realize His might.

See a person's life from birth to death, existent in Him.

How deep is the life? Life is measured by the depth of our existence in Him.

Life is rooted in Him.

The Spirit is living in us as we live our lives in the rosary.

We are to be transformed more at every moment in Mary's Immaculate Heart.

We LOVE - love everyone despite their faults and imperfections and pray for them.

We must see as Mary saw.

Mary is Mother of all.

Mary sees their lives. We must see our lives as in relation to Him, in relation to our being in the beatific vision for all eternity.

The rosary is a way of life.

The Spirit lifts us up to exist in the mysteries.

Before we were engulfed in fear, now we live in the mysteries, praying continually for ourselves and the world to be transformed into the most perfect handmaids of the Lord we can be.

We walk IN HIS NAME.

We sing in our hearts His praise.

We live after the example of Our Lady of the Holy Spirit. We are to be transformed more and more into His image and likeness through the workings of the Holy Spirit in us. As His spouse we are united in deep oneness in Him in the Sacrifice being offered to the Father. We live in this relationship with our God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit in the purity of Mary's Heart, no longer held as captives in Satan's snare.


Galatians 2:20

...yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me...


Messenger: Annunciation - A Child is conceived in Mary's womb. Jesus, a Child, is born. We identify with this mystery as a child. Many of us were baptized as babies. We are baptized into this new life of grace.

This is joy - it is this new life existent in Him.

Our life is being lived in a deeper consecration in Their Hearts.

We live in the rosary.

There is new life, there is transformation for the tainted children of Eve offering sacrifice in the holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

There is a heightened level of existence.

There is an end of the captivity.

There is a freedom of existing in Him.

Our prayer is a continual existence in the rosary, a silence of being in this state of pleading for souls, ours and others, that we and they will know a fuller existence in Him.

The seeing of each life from a baby to the end at death to the life beyond. It is one. That life at Baptism initiates the soul into a greater existence of life in Him.

Our life is a life of growing in consecration. We are taken into the realms of fuller maturity of life in Him. This life will go on for all eternity.

So why did Our Lady of Fatima stress the rosary and consecration?

This is the way of leading the soul into a fuller maturity of existing in Him, an existence which reaches its fullness in Him in eternity.

Our Lady is the Singular vessel of devotion,
the Mystical rose,

the Tower of David,
She is Our Lady of Light,
Our Lady of the Holy Spirit.

We are transformed in her Immaculate Heart through the working of the Holy Spirit, being united to Jesus as His spouse.

We are the little children of the Father, offering our lives as a sacrifice to Him, living in His will at every moment, dwelling in Their pure and holy Hearts.

Dwelling in Their pure and holy Hearts enhances this life of consecration begun at Baptism.

The rosary is a vehicle which helps us live this new life. In the rosary we live according to these mysteries of Their lives. We grow to a fuller maturity of existing in Him. The rosary is our prayer forever. Consecration is our life existent in Him. Mary is our Mother of this spiritual life. The Incarnation goes on in us.

Messenger: Our Lady of Fatima, thank you for your Immaculate Heart and the journey of our lives lived with Him in the rosary.

Joy, sorrow and glory.

A birth, a cross, perfection, fullness of life.

The Son comes to the earth. Christ is buried in the earth, Christ rises to new life, He ascends into heaven.

Christ comes a Baby, Christ dies as a Man, Christ is in heaven with His Body and Soul.

Mary mothers Christ. Mary was assumed soul and body into heaven.

In modeling our lives after Jesus and Mary, we see how temporary our lives are here on earth. Life goes on in eternity. The body will be rejoined to the soul at the end of time.

Christ shows us the reality of death. Christ gives us new life.

Insight into the mysteries are given by the Holy Spirit in our meditating on the mysteries of the rosary. Jesus and Mary are our models, They lived on the earth.


Luke 1:46

And Mary said:

My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord


Messenger: Mary's love is so pure, not selfish or jealous, purely going out to the other, selfless love, love rooted in Him.

Mary's face was beautiful, so clear, so absolutely pure, appearing in this glass-like tone. I do not know how to describe the beauty of the purity of her body and face that reflected a pure soul within most likened to God.

Mary does not carry with her "baggage" as we do. Her Heart is forgiving, loving, pure and holy.

Mary is our model, the Immaculate Virgin, the Mystical rose, with a beauty indescribable in words.


Psalm 110:3

Royal dignity has been yours from the day of your birth,
sacred honour from the womb, from the dawn of your youth.


Messenger: I heard Jesus say this: We were given this gift to offer sacrifice, to live in the sacrifice of the Mass, being so one in Him.

From the Votive Mass of the Eucharist:


Exodus 24:3-8

Moses went and told the people all Yahweh's words and all the laws, and all the people answered with one voice, 'All the words Yahweh has spoken we will carry out!' Moses put all Yahweh's words into writing, and early next morning he built an altar at the foot of the mountain, with twelve standing-stones for the twelve tribes of Israel. Then he sent certain young Israelites to offer burnt offerings and sacrifice bullocks to Yahweh as communion sacrifices. Moses then took half the blood and put it into basins, and the other half he sprinkled on the altar. Then, taking the Book of the Covenant, he read it to the listening people, who then said, 'We shall do everything that Yahweh has said; we shall obey.' Moses than took the blood and sprinkled it over the people saying, 'This is the blood of the covenant which Yahweh has made with you, entailing all these stipulations.'


Psalm 110:1-4
The Priest Messiah

Yahweh declared to my Lord, 'Take your seat at my right hand,
till I have made your enemies your footstool.'

Yahweh will stretch out the sceptre of your power;
from Zion you will rule your foes all around you.

Royal dignity has been yours from the day of your birth,
sacred honour from the womb, from the dawn of your youth.

Yahweh has sworn an oath he will never retract,
you are a priest for ever of the order of Melchizedek.


Messenger: The priest is a GIFT from God.

Messenger: Our lives are gifts from God to unite every second to this great Sacrifice of the Mass.

GRACE AND MERCY being poured on the EARTH.
