            Scriptures from Today's Mass

Jonah 1:1 - 2:1, 11  

The word of Yahweh was addressed to Jonah son of Amittai: ‘Up!’ he said, ‘Go to Nineveh, the great city, and proclaim to them that their wickedness has forced itself upon me.’ Jonah set about running away from Yahweh, and going to Tarshish. He went down to Jaffa and found a ship bound for Tarshish; he paid his fare and boarded it, to go with them to Tarshish, to get away from Yahweh. But Yahweh threw a hurricane at the sea, and there was such a great storm at sea that the ship threatened to break up. The sailors took fright, and each of them called on his own god, and to lighten the ship they threw the cargo overboard. Jonah, however, had gone below, had lain down in the hold and was fast asleep, when the boatswain went up to him and said, ‘What do you mean by sleeping? Get up! Call on your god! Perhaps he will spare us a thought and not leave us to die.’ Then they said to each other, ‘Come on, let us draw lots to find out who is to blame for bringing us this bad luck.’ So they cast lots, and the lot pointed to Jonah. Then they said to him, ‘Tell us, what is your business? Where do you come from? What is your country? What is your nationality?’ He replied, ‘I am a Hebrew, and I worship Yahweh, God of Heaven, who made both sea and dry land.’ The sailors were seized with terror at this and said, ‘Why ever did you do this?’ since they knew that he was trying to escape from Yahweh, because he had told them so. They then said, ‘What are we to do with you, to make the sea calm down for us?’ For the sea was growing rougher and rougher. He replied, ‘Take me and throw me into the sea, and then it will calm down for you. I know it is my fault that this great storm has struck you.’ The sailors rowed hard in an effort to reach the shore, but in vain, since the sea was growing rougher and rougher. So at last they called on Yahweh and said, ‘O, Yahweh, do not let us perish for the sake of this man’s life, and do not hold us responsible for causing an innocent man’s death; for you, Yahweh, have acted as you saw fit.’ And taking hold of Jonah they threw him into the sea; and the sea stopped raging. At this, the men were seized with dread of Yahweh; they offered a sacrifice to Yahweh and made vows to him.

Now Yahweh ordained that a great fish should swallow Jonah; and Jonah remained in the belly of the fish for three days and three nights.

Yahweh spoke to the fish, which then vomited Jonah onto the dry land.

  

Jonah 2: 2-5, 8

From the belly of the fish, Jonah prayed to Yahweh, his God; he said: 

    Out of my distress I cried to Yahweh 
        and he answered me, 
    from the belly of Sheol I cried out; 
        you heard my voice! 

    For you threw me into the deep, 
        into the heart of the seas, 
    and the floods closed round me. 
    All your waves and billows 
            passed over me; 
        then I thought, ‘I am banished 
            from your sight; 
    how shall I ever see your holy Temple 
        again?’

    When my soul was growing ever weaker, 
        Yahweh, I remembered you, 
    and my prayer reached you 
        in your holy Temple.

Luke 10: 25-37  

And now a lawyer stood up and, to test him, asked, ‘Master, what must I do to inherit eternal life?’ He said to him, ‘What is written in the Law? What is your reading of it?’ He replied, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbour as yourself.’ Jesus said to him, ‘You have answered right, do this and life is yours.’

But the man was anxious to justify himself and said to Jesus, ‘And who is my neighbour?’ In answer Jesus said, ‘A man was once on his way down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell into the hands of bandits; they stripped him, beat him and then made off, leaving him half dead. Now a priest happened to be travelling down the same road, but when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. In the same way a Levite who came to the place saw him, and passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan traveller who came on him was moved with compassion when he saw him. He went up to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. He then lifted him onto his own mount and took him to an inn and looked after him. Next day, he took out two denarii and handed them to the innkeeper and said, "Look after him, and on my way back I will make good any extra expense you have." Which of these three, do you think, proved himself a neighbour to the man who fell into the bandits’ hands?’ He replied, ‘The one who showed pity towards him.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Go, and do the same yourself.’

Jesus speaks:         The message I give is to love.

                                This is the greatest commandment —

Mysteries of the Rosary 

The Sorrowful Mysteries

The Agony in the Garden

1. R. Agonies of the heart are the greatest of all agonies. How Jesus suffered for all who would treat Him so coldly!
2. R. He who loves us so perfectly, with a Heart on fire for us, is treated with such indifference!
3. R. His Heart is an open furnace. He calls out to us, "I love you so dearly. Please, My children, please come and give your love to Me!"
4. R. In the garden He saw before Him all the people from all time who would not even think of Him, day after day after day, and still He loved them so much!
5. R. He waits for us to come and be with Him in the Eucharist. So many people receive Him and do not talk to Him!
6. R. He agonized over all the souls who would suffer eternal damnation despite His Sacrifice for their salvation.
7. R. He saw before Him all the suffering He would undergo for deepest love of us and in compliance with His Father's will.
8. Mary: I am the Immaculate Heart. If only you knew, my dear children, how much my Son loves you!
9. R. His Heart was in such sorrow and anguish! We do not know even now how much this Heart suffered for love of us! He thirsts for the love of souls.
10. R. He asks us to tell Him how much we truly love Him.

The Scourging at the Pillar

1. R. Jesus loved Judas dearly but Judas betrayed Jesus with a kiss.
2. R. Jesus stood by. They hit His face. They pulled His hair. They treated Him so cruelly!
3. R. His beloved mother stood by and watched her once-small-child suffer so! But she was helpless and could not raise a hand.
4. R. They tied Him to a pillar.
5. R. His tender back was beaten so brutally that flesh now hung from His body.
6. R. The blood ran down His precious skin from His head to His toes.
7. R. With mean hearts and angry faces they whipped Jesus with horrible instruments.
8. R. As He stood there absorbing this punishment He thought of us and how He loves us so dearly.
9. R. He thought of our brothers, too. He loves them with the same intense love.
10. R. As He suffered so from the sins of men He was comforted by the acts of love we give to Him this very day.

The Crowning with Thorns

1. R. They clothed Him with a dirty, purple robe and mocked Him as king.
2. R. They pounded the crown of thorns onto His most precious head.
3. R. The blood ran down, bright red blood, into His eyes and into His ears.
4. R. Put yourself there and watch Jesus as He is crowned with thorns and people holler such horrible things!
5. R. Jesus sits with His head down like a little lamb about to be led to the slaughter.
6. R. Think of how it would be to have someone taunt and assault you.
7. Jesus: "They wounded My head with a crown of thorns and I bled for love of you."
8. Jesus: "My children, do you know how I love you? I love you this very day."
9. R. He would suffer for us this very day.
10. Jesus: "Come to Me in the Eucharist. I long for your love. I am He Who shed His blood for you."

The Carrying of the Cross

1. R. See Jesus stand there as they condemned Him to death-the hate and anger on their faces while Jesus stood, bound like a criminal, with a look of peace on His face, at peace because He knew the Father's love.
2. Jesus: When they holler and persecute you, see My love given for you. See Me with My body beaten and battered. See My Father as He loves you this very day. Know that you are loved.
3. R. Mary walked the whole way by His side.
4. R. Do we know even a little of how the Heart of Mary ached as she watched her Son beaten and poked as He fell to the ground with the cross on His back. She had to stand helplessly by and not say a word.
5. R. Do we see the love that Jesus and Mary have for us? Do we see that they are always with us, loving us so much? Or do we wander our own way, thinking no one loves us?
6. R. He falls under the cross, then rises, again and again. This is the love He has for us.
7. R. They peered into each other's eyes. "This is the love We give to you. Would you listen to Us, please?"
8. R. His Heart beat, even to its last, for love of us, but we do not think of how much love God has for each of us this very day.
9. R. Always complying with the will of the Father, He plodded on as they led Him to the hill of Calvary.
10. R. Veronica wiped the face of Jesus, that beautiful face, once so unblemished, now covered with blood.

The Crucifixion and Death of Jesus

1. R. She stood by and watched the same hands-once gentle, baby hands-now hammered with big nails.
2. R. She saw His feet-those little feet she once held-now hammered with big nails.
3. R. She watched as His skin-that tender skin she cared for as she babied Him-was now all battered, torn, bruised and bloodied!
4. R. And she calls out to us this day: "This is my Son. This is how He loves you. What more do you want Him to do to show you His love?"
5. R. He remains with us in the Eucharist with such love! He gave Himself on the cross. He gives Himself to us this very day.
6. Mary: I saw what He suffered because He loved you so. I suffered by His side. I call out to you. I am your beloved mother. Come to Him.
7. Mary: His Heart is on fire for love of you today.
8. Mary: Stand under the cross with me and watch my Son die such a terrible death!
9. Mary: Sit under the cross with me. Receive His lifeless body.
10. Mary: I am the Immaculate Heart of Mary and I cry out to you to spread His love to all of your brothers. For I come to tell you this day that He loves you so much and He loves your brothers and wants them to know this love. This is my call to you: to spread this love throughout this world.

October 6, 2003 message continues

Messenger:         Jesus help me to be able to do your
                                will,
                            Jesus help me to be pure.

Jesus speaks:     A man went out and he spoke of
                                My love, but inside his house
                                he was prideful and argumentative
                                condemning with those around him.

                            He chided them, he used them to
                                get ahead, he was very unloving

                                and I appeared to him and I
                                very simply said —

                            You are called to love, to love those

                                around you, do not be a hypocrite,

                                who are you to think everyone needs
                                to know your direction while
                                you yourself is very unloving,
                                almost hateful to your brothers
                                you live with.

                            Begin at home to show your love —
                                Start new, pray for grace, don't
                                tear down the institution and
                                the community.

Excerpt from October 1, 2003 message

Jesus speaks:             A man went to a river and he wanted

                                        to cross the other side.

                                        The desire swelled up in his 

                                            heart.

                                        He gathered his friends, he asked

                                            for help.

                                    They worked together all in love to get

                                        to the other side.

                                    Another man came and he whipped

                                        his friends in anger and they

                                        all ran away to another town.

                                        The man sat on the river bank

                                        and cried for he could not lay

                                        one timber to get himself across

                                        to the other side.

                                        "Oh", sobbed he, "I am lowly and

                                        want to cross" at once a voice

                                        was heard from afar —

                                        "The workers came, they wanted

                                        to help you and you angrily

                                        chided them and literally whipped

                                        some with your nasty words

                                        and violent speech, you are a

                                        foolish breed for you do not see

                                        that the seeds you sow, so shall you

                                        reap."

                                    The man never moved from that side of

                                        the river for he acted like a

                                        porcupine whenever someone

                                        approached he stuck them with

                                        his sticks.

                End of excerpt from October 1, 2003 message

October 6, 2003 message continues

Jesus speaks:         Withstand the daily trials — act in love —
                                    it is not to a big heroic deed I call
                                    you to, it is in living day after
                                    day, minute after minute in love,
                                    serving Me and helping to build
                                    My Kingdom.

                                A man went out and in his mind was
                                    thoughts of wearing a gold crown,
                                    securing funds and gaining
                                    recognition for himself, his actions
                                    were for his own vain glory —
                                    he spoke of one thing, but acted
                                        for his own purpose.

                                My way is love.
                               My way is forgiveness.
                                My way is peace and harmony.

                                I am your God.
                                I love all My precious souls.
                                Be loving.

                                Pray for help to handle all difficult
                                    situations.

                                Life is very short.

                                Will you leave a trail of wounded
                                    friends.

                                Work on being loving to those you
                                    live with.

                                My way is love.

                                My way is forgiveness.

                                My way is to build up the Kingdom.

                                I am your King.

                                You are to model your lives after Me.

                                Look at St. Francis

Lord

make me an instrument
of your peace.
Where there is hatred
let me sow love
Where there is injury/pardon
where there is doubt/faith
where there is despair/hope
where there is darkeness/light
and where there is sadness/joy.

O Divine Master
grant that I may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to understand
to be loved as to love.

For it is in giving
that we receive
it is in pardoning
that we are pardoned
and it it is in dying
that we are born to eternal life.

October 6, 2003 message continues

Jesus speaks:         Oh you of gentle heart, how
                                    loving indeed your heart
                                    became once you surrendered to Me.

                                Let go of the false pride and
                                    envy, help one another,
                                    promote My Kingdom.

                                    Be loving.

                                    Serve Me —

                                    Do all things for My honor and glory!!

                                    I am the King of heaven and earth.

                                    You are My cohort.

                                    I am Jesus.

                                    I am your Savior

                                Tomorrow is the Feast of the
                                    Holy Rosary —

                                    Meditate on My suffering,
                                        passion, I gave My life
                                        for love of you.

                                Meditate on the Mysteries of Light

Mysteries of Light for Children

    

        First sing the rosary song all verses

            then sing the Song from Jesus—should be

            sung between Mysteries.

  

    

  

Baptism of Jesus

1.  Matthew 3:13

Then Jesus appeared: he came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptised by John.

2. Matthew 3:14

John tried to dissuade him, with the words, ‘It is I who need baptism from you, and yet you come to me!’

3. Matthew 3:15

But Jesus replied, ‘Leave it like this for the time being; it is fitting that we should, in this way, do all that uprightness demands.’ Then John gave in to him.

4. Jesus is the Light of the World

5. Jesus wants the children to come to
       Him. 
  

  

6. Jesus taught us many things while on
        earth.

7. Jesus wants all children to
        know He is the Son of God.

8. After Jesus was baptized the sky opened
        up and the voice of the Father was
        heard.

9. The Father said:

        Mark 9: 7
            ...‘This is my Son, the Beloved. Listen to him.’

10. Matthew 3: 17

And suddenly there was a voice from heaven, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved; my favour rests on him.’

 

  

  

  

  

  

Marriage at Cana

1. Jesus worked miracles while on earth.

2. Jesus taught us about His power
        when He healed the
        paralytic.

3. Jesus loves the youth.

4. Jesus wants the youth to pray.

5. Jesus gave us the Holy Scripture.

6. Jesus wants the youth to read
        the Holy Scripture too.

7. There are parts of the Holy Scripture
        at Mass.

8. We read the Gospel at Mass.

9. Here is the writing about the
        Marriage of Cana

John 2: 3-10

     And they ran out of wine, since the wine provided for the feast had all been used, and the mother  of Jesus said to him, ‘They have no wine.’ Jesus said, ‘Woman, what do you want from me? My hour has not come yet.’ His mother said to the servants, ‘Do whatever he tells you.’ There were six stone water jars standing there, meant for the ablutions that are customary among the Jews: each could hold twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to the servants, ‘Fill the jars with water,’ and they filled them to the brim. Then he said to them, ‘Draw some out now and take it to the president of the feast.’ They did this; the president tasted the water, and it had turned into wine. Having no idea where it came from—though the servants who had drawn the water knew—the president of the feast called the bridegroom and said, ‘Everyone serves good wine first and the worse wine when the guests are well wined; but you have kept the best wine till now.’

10. Jesus wants us to ask Mary to
        intercede for us to God.

 

 

 

 

  

Kingdom of God

1. All of us working together to do
        what God wants us to do will
        help build the Kingdom of God.

2. Listen to the words of the Our Father.

The Our Father

    Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

3. We should think about the words
        when we pray the Our Father.

4. We should pray with all our hearts
        and ask Our Father to help us.

5. Jesus wants us to put the image of the
        Sacred Heart and the Immaculate
        Heart in our houses.

6. Jesus wants us to honor Him and make
        Him the King of our homes.

7. Jesus wants us to honor Him and
        make Him the King of our hearts.

8. We can pray that men will help try to
        spread the good News Jesus gave us.

9. Jesus wants us to be with Him forever in heaven.

10. Jesus gave Himself on the cross to pay for our sins.
        He died for all souls so they could go to heaven.

 

  

 

Transfiguration

1. Here are the words of scripture about the 
        transfiguration.

Matthew 17:2-3

There in their presence he was transfigured: his face shone like the sun and his clothes became as dazzling as light. And suddenly Moses and Elijah appeared to them; they were talking with him

2. Immaculata - Holy Cross is a Catholic Church
        in Cincinnati. They have many steps
        to climb. People go there on Good Friday
        and pray on every step. Here is a picture 
        from outside.
  

  

3. I saw Jesus transfigured in the statue several
        times in January, 1996 before Mary appeared

                                                                  Florida.

4. Here is a picture where Jesus appeared in
        the Sacred Heart statue.
  

  

5. Here is what I wrote-

Excerpt from the Daily Messages December 22, 1998

Messenger:  On January 9, 1996, I went to pray. The snow was so bad the street was blocked to Holy Cross-Immaculata. I finally managed to find a place to park and trudged through the snow, panting with joy to be with Our Lord in the tabernacle there. When I arrived all I could do was kneel before the Sacred Heart statue and pour out myself to Him.

From my writings of January 9, 1996, I write:

"I was engulfed again in my love of God and cried so hard because I love Him so much. In this intimate act of giving myself totally to Him, my whole act was in emptying myself, wanting only to be lost in Him and united forever to Him in this most blissful moment. I turned myself over and was lost in Him, knowing His presence with me and knowing His deep love. The world stopped and I existed in Him, longing to forever stay there, so this moment would never end."

"I touched you, God and in this embrace I knew your unending love. I saw Your Body as if it was transfigured and glowing in light and I was lost in Thee."

This is how it began. I would see a great reflective light, as if from a mirror, on the eaves of the church in the front of Holy Cross-Immaculata and His Body was changed in the most brilliant light before my eyes. I cannot describe what I saw, nor have I ever seen it except in this vision and two that would follow the next two days. Jesus was transfigured before my eyes.

The date of January 9, 1996, when it first happened, was the same date January 9, 1994, when I genuflected before the crucifix and the altar at St. Gertrude's and the Father spoke; Blue Book II-page 18, January 9, 1994: "This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased."

On January 9, 1996, I would see Jesus transfigured before me in the statue.
  

6. When Jesus appeared the light was so awesome I
        cannot describe, sometimes I see the light
        like that at Mary's image site.

7. Jesus appeared transfigured below
        Mary's image when we opened the
        Rosary factory February 5, 2000.
        Our Founder Fr. Carter was there. He
        blessed the rosary factory.

8. Mary and Jesus want us to pray the rosary.

9. The pope is the person on earth in the highest place
        in the Church.

10. The pope told us to meditate on these Mysteries of light.
        These mysteries help draw us closer to
        our beloved Jesus, the Sacred Heart,
        He loves us so much.

    

  

  

    

The Last Supper

1. Here are some words from scripture
        about the Last Supper.

2. Luke 22: 14-20

    When the time came he took his place at table, and the apostles with him. And he said to them, ‘I have ardently longed to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; because, I tell you, I shall not eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.’
    Then, taking a cup, he gave thanks and said, ‘Take this and share it among you, because from now on, I tell you, I shall never again drink wine until the kingdom of God comes.’

The institution of the Eucharist

    Then he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.’ He did the same with the cup after supper, and said, ‘This cup is the new covenant in my blood poured out for you.

3. Judas was there at the last supper.

4. Here is what Jesus said about the
        betrayal of Judas

5. Luke 22:21-22 

    ‘But look, here with me on the table is the hand of the man who is betraying me. The Son of man is indeed on the path which was decreed, but alas for that man by whom he is betrayed!

6. Jesus gives us Himself in the Holy         Eucharist. 7. He comes to us in a special way. 8. He wants us to receive Him. 9. He can fill us with so much grace         when we receive Him. We should                     ask for special grace to love Him         more deeply.

10. Jesus wants us to come to Him like little
        children and tell Him how much we love Him.
        We should spend time with Him after we receive the
        Eucharist.

THE GLORIOUS MYSTERIES

The Resurrection

1. Messenger: I could hardly walk after the Mass, for He filled me with His Presence.
2. Yesterday the agony of the realization of division and lack of oneness in the world filled me with such suffering and I knew something of hell and its lack of love. I knew something of the pain of division from God for all eternity.
3. Today I was filled with such oneness for God and His creatures as He embraced me and overwhelmed me with His loving Presence as I existed in a heightened level in Him.
4. The heights of this ecstasy is a taste of the everlasting embrace of our God in His love, existing in Him for all eternity. And so I write in this rosary of the One Who came forth victorious from the tomb and how I walk in His footprints.
5. In my Bible is seen the cave where Christ was born in Bethlehem, and a tomb thought to be similar to the one He came out of after the Resurrection.
6. He was born in a cave in the belly of the earth. He came forth victorious out of the tomb, both in the belly of the earth.
7. In John’s Gospel it says the tomb of this New Adam was in a garden.
8. He rose victorious from the dead.
9. As we give ourselves in consecration to the New Adam and the New Eve, we put our tainted hearts in Their two pure and holy Hearts.
10. Love is in Him.

Messenger: I ask the second reading from today’s Mass and the Gospel appear here.

Romans 8:18-23

Glory is our destiny

In my estimation, all that we suffer in the present time is nothing in comparison with the glory which is destined to be disclosed for us, for the whole creation is waiting with eagerness for the children of God to be revealed. It was not for its own purposes that creation had frustration imposed on it, but for the purposes of him who imposed it--with the intention that the whole creation itself might be freed from its slavery to corruption and brought into the same glorious freedom as the children of God. We are well aware that the whole creation, until this time, has been groaning in labour pains. And not only that: we too, who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we are groaning inside ourselves, waiting with eagerness for our bodies to be set free.

Matthew 13:1-23

Introduction

That same day, Jesus left the house and sat by the lakeside, but such large crowds gathered round him that he got into a boat and sat there. The people all stood on the shore, and he told them many things in parables.

Parable of the sower

He said, ‘Listen, a sower went out to sow. As he sowed, some seeds fell on the edge of the path, and the birds came and ate them up. Others fell on patches of rock where they found little soil and sprang up at once, because there was no depth of earth; but as soon as the sun came up they were scorched and, not having any roots, they withered away. Others fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. Others fell on rich soil and produced their crop, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. Anyone who has ears should listen!

Why Jesus speaks in parables

Then, the disciples went up to him and asked, ‘Why do you talk to them in parables?’ In answer, he said, ‘Because to you is granted to understand the mysteries of the kingdom of Heaven, but to them it is not granted. Anyone who has will be given more and will have more than enough; but anyone who has not will be deprived even of what he has. The reason I talk to them in parables is that they look without seeing and listen without hearing or understanding. So in their case what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah is being fulfilled:

Listen and listen, but never understand!
Look, and look, but never perceive!
This people’s heart has grown coarse,
     their ears dulled,
 they have shut their eyes tight
 to avoid using their eyes to see,
     their ears to hear,
 their heart to understand,
 changing their ways
     and being healed by me.

‘But blessed are your eyes because they see, your ears because they hear! In truth I tell you, many prophets and upright people longed to see what you see, and never saw it; to hear what you hear, and never heard it.

The parable of the sower explained

‘So pay attention to the parable of the sower. When anyone hears the word of the kingdom without understanding, the Evil One comes and carries off what was sown in his heart: this is the seed sown on the edge of the path. The seed sown on patches of rock is someone who hears the word and welcomes it at once with joy. But such a person has no root deep down and does not last; should some trial come, or some persecution on account of the word, at once he falls away. The seed sown in thorns is some one who hears the word, but the worry of the world and the lure of riches choke the word and so it produces nothing. And the seed sown in rich soil is someone who hears the word and understands it; this is the one who yields a harvest and produces now a hundredfold, now sixty, now thirty.’

Messenger: The Sorrowful Mysteries I received before Mass, the Glorious Mysteries after Mass. I saw in Mass that He was strengthening my roots so that I existed firmly rooted in Him.

The Ascension

1. Messenger: And so our life is lived in the Pascal Mystery of death-Resurrection.
2. It is in the dying we are brought to greater life in Him.
3. We carry the cross, we look beaten, battered and torn and the glory of that day is the increased new life in Him that follows.
4. Having been beaten, Jesus, the New Adam hung on the cross about to die.
5. The glory of that new day was the life that came forth in the victory of the Resurrected Lord.
6. We came forth, the children of Eve. We are given a sharing in His life through Baptism. We are washed through the Sacrament of Reconciliation and we are refreshed more and more with a feeding of greater life in Him in the Holy Eucharist.
7. One Bread, one Body - one life rooted in Him.
8. We die to those things that are not like Him. We are refreshed with increased life in Him.
9. He ascended into heaven and He left the work of reaching the world in our hands.
10. We are commissioned in Baptism to do His work, the work of the Good Shepherd. We offer ourselves, our lives, in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in which the Sacrifice of Calvary is sacramentally made present.

We identify with Him. We are one in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary. We offer a most pure sacrifice to the Father united in the holy Hearts of the New Adam and the New Eve.

Vision of Lucia, main visionary of Fatima, 1929

The Descent of the Holy Spirit

1. Messenger: Grace and mercy are poured forth on the earth from the Father in the Holy Spirit through the pierced Heart of Jesus Christ.
2. Through Him all graces flow.
3. Mary the Immaculate one is the spotless Virgin conceived without sin, full of grace.
4. And the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles.
5. No longer did they have problems communicating. They were united in one mind and one heart to preach the Gospel.
6. One tongue, it is the language in which we speak of His world, of life in Him.
7. Victors are the souls who unite to the pure and holy Hearts of the New Adam and the New Eve.
8. They came forth victorious from the tomb.
9. They wear the white robes of glory, washed in the Blood of the Lamb, filled with the Holy Spirit and they sing.
10. Song: Holy God, We Praise Thy Name
    Song: Come Holy Ghost.

The Assumption

1. Messenger: Both Jesus and Mary, the New Adam, the New Eve are in heaven.
2. Jesus ascended into heaven. Mary was taken up body and soul.
3. We live transformed in Their two pure and holy Hearts.
4. We offer a most holy sacrifice uniting our hearts to Their two Hearts and we unite to the Mass all day as a sacrifice.
5. We plead to the Father for forgiveness for the children of Adam and Eve.
6. We beg for grace to be outpoured on the earth.
7. We want help from the SAVIOR to save us from our sins.
8. Men give themselves in consecration to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
9. Death will be no more. (1 Corinthians 15:26)
   and the last of the enemies to be done away with is death, for he has put all things under his feet.

10. 1 Corinthians 15:54-55

A hymn of triumph, Conclusion

And after this perishable nature has put on imperishability and this mortal nature has put on immortality, then will the words of scripture come true: Death is swallowed up in victory. Death, where is your victory? Death where is your sting? Death is swallowed up in victory. Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting?

Messenger: Thanks be to God Who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

The Coronation

1. Revelation 3:12-13
   Anyone who proves victorious I will make into a pillar in the sanctuary of my God, and it will stay there for ever; I will inscribe on it the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem which is coming down from my God in heaven, and my own new name as well. Let anyone who can hear, listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches."
2. Revelation 4:11
       You are worthy, our Lord and God,
       to receive glory and honour and power,
       for you made the whole universe;
       by your will, when it did not exist,
            it was created.
3. Revelation 5:9-10
       They sang a new hymn:
       You are worthy to take the scroll
       and to break its seals,
       because you were sacrificed,
            and with your blood
       you bought people for God
       of every race, language, people and nation
       and made them
            a line of kings and priests for God,
        to rule the world.
4. Revelation 12:1-2
   Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant, and in labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth.
5. The New Eve triumphant. The New Adam will reign.
6. God has visited His people.
7. The Resurrected Lord remains with us in the Holy Eucharist.
8. We receive Him, we eat His Body.
9. Message given to Jacinta by Our Lady:

Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 18

Tell everybody that God gives graces through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Tell them to ask grace from her, and that the Heart of Jesus wishes to be venerated together with the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Ask them to plead for peace from the Immaculate Heart of Mary, for the Lord has confided the peace of the world to her. ¹⁹

19 Our Lady’s Peace Plan, op. cit., p. 30.

10. Those who give their hearts to Jesus and Mary, the New Adam, the New Eve, and unite at every moment to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass-- they will be the victors.

ROSARY MEDITATIONS
BEFORE EXPOSED BLESSED SACRAMENT
IN THE HOLY SPIRIT CHAPEL

OUR LADY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT CENTER
JULY 13, 1995 NOON
THE JOYFUL MYSTERIES

The Annunciation

1. R. Put yourself in the presence of the Almighty God. Before us is the same Jesus Christ who walked on the face of this earth and was carried in the womb of the Virgin Mary. He is present, the same Jesus who hung on the cross. Who are we that the Almighty God is present and that we are before Him? Let us bow our head and bend low for this truly is Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and He is giving to us a great gift by allowing us to be so close.
2. R: We see the angel appearing to the Virgin Mary. Mary says yes to the angel, always complying with the Will of the Father. She loved the Father so much as a little child, always wanting to please the Father.
3. R: Mary is filled with the Holy Spirit, and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. Jesus, the Son of God, enters this earth in the womb of the Virgin Mary. Who are we that God the Father so loved this world that He sent His only-begotten Son, Jesus, into this world? Jesus took on a human baby body.
4. R: We are His chosen ones. The Father created us with such love, each one of us individually, so precious to Him. He gave to us His Son that we would be saved and live with Him forever and ever in heaven.
5. R: To help the mysteries of the rosary live in our life, we must meditate on the intimacy between Jesus and Mary. We see the Two Hearts, The Heart of Jesus and the Heart of Mary, beat within the body of Mary. In two of the mysteries of the rosary, Jesus is inside of Mary's body. There is such intimacy between those Two Hearts. In two mysteries of the rosary, the Hearts are enclosed in one body, beating together in the body of Mary.
6. R: Realizing this intimacy between Jesus and Mary can help us come closer to God. Mary is the key to intimacy with God.
7. Jesus: Let your hearts be soft and supple, My dear ones. Open wide your hearts and rid yourselves of all distractions of this world. Be alone with Me. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and I am giving to you great gifts here, abundant graces to understand more the mysteries of My life and that of My Mother. Open wide your heart and forget all that is holding you apart from Me and meditate on these mysteries of Our lives.
8. Jesus: Make a Spiritual Communion. Feel the presence of the Almighty God as you do when you receive Holy Communion. For when you are in the state of grace, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit dwell within you in such a special way! You cannot imagine the beauty of a graced soul, a soul that is filled with My life. If I lifted the veil in this room, you would fall on your faces from the vibrancy of the rays that would come from the Consecrated Host. My dear ones, you do not know the great gifts I am giving to you in this room.
9. R: Always in compliance with the Will of the Father, Mary said yes to the angel and the Son of God was conceived within her womb. Mary mothers us this day and dispenses to us the life that was merited by Her Son on the cross. As Jesus was formed in the womb of His Mother through the Holy Spirit, we too are formed in the spiritual womb of our Mother. She dispenses life, the life of grace, to us as we are transformed more and more through the Holy Spirit into the image and likeness of Jesus, her Son. Who are we that God loves us so much?
10. R: As you meditate on these mysteries of the rosary, see the connectedness between the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Mary's Heart that dwells in her Son. Let your heart dwell in the Heart of the Virgin Mary and your heart will dwell in Jesus' Heart. You will be in such connection with this love, the love of your Mother and the love of Jesus, your Savior.

The Visitation

1. R. The Virgin Mary goes to visit Her cousin Elizabeth. The child in the womb of Elizabeth leaps for joy at the presence of the Almighty God. Here we are in this room and the Almighty God is present, no less present than He was in the womb of the Virgin Mary. The child in Elizabeth's womb leaps for such joy! Let our hearts be filled with joy that God is here and has chosen us to be with Him. Nothing is an accident. Every hair of our head is numbered.
   
   He calls and we respond to this calling. He is by our side, with us every second, as we go about our day. He is so attentive to each and every one of our needs! He is talking in our hearts in such a gentle and kind voice, outpouring His gentle words of love. We do not hear many times, in the busyness of our lives. We do not hear the sweet and gentle words that He speaks in our hearts. So gently He tells of His love for us and of His longing to be ever closer to us. We put Him aside and go to the world. Our hearts are aching and begging for love. He says over and over again, "Come to Me. I am what your soul seeks and I am waiting. When your hearts are breaking and in pain, you must come to Me." It is then that you will be comforted and you will receive the desires of your soul. Nothing on the face of the earth can fill the starved soul but the love of the almighty God.
2. Jesus: Many are called, but few are chosen. My dear ones, I have chosen you and My Mother has called you to this house. You are My apostles that will go into this world, laden with pain and suffering, and spread the love of God. This is not a little task. I am applying My grace to your lives. You will be fearless as you go about this world doing the work I am calling you to.
3. R. Mary goes to Her cousin Elizabeth, one person with whom to share the good news. We see in the windows in this chapel, across from the Visitation window, the Assumption into heaven, and then her Coronation as queen of heaven and earth. Her life and the life of Jesus unfold as They comply always with the Will of the Father. Always living in peace and joy. They knew the Father had a plan and They wanted to please Their beloved Father. We do not see that, from the day we were born, the Father had a plan for each one of us uniquely created with a mission far beyond our own comprehension. We seek for such little things, when the Almighty God is calling and leading us on our way. We are so precious to the Father! Dear Holy Spirit, open up our eyes and our hearts. Help us to realize the greatness which He has bestowed on us. Help us to realize that the Almighty God-Father, Son and Holy Spirit-dwells within us. If we could see the state of our own soul, a soul in the state of grace, we would not believe the beauty of this soul.
4. R. It is in baptism that we are made children of God and heirs of heaven. We are children of God! God loved the world so much that He sent His only Son, so that we would be with Him forever in heaven. This is only a stopover on our way to eternity. The glory that awaits us is so immense that we can never comprehend it.
5. R. Mary visited Her cousin Elizabeth with the child Jesus within Her womb. We are visited by Jesus in this room in such a special way! For the Almighty God is outpouring His abundant grace to each one of us at this time. Mary, help us to be more sensitive to the touch of His Grace, to realize His life, the vibrancy of this life, within us.
6. Jesus: Many are called, but few are chosen. I have chosen you, and My Mother has called each one of you to Her house. This moment, moment by moment, second by second, you are being guarded and watched in this world that is suffering and in pain. You do not see the great gifts that I am outpouring to you. Open wide your heart. Let go any bitterness, anger and resentment, and live according to the Father's Will. Operate in love. Do all your deeds in love, and know that your Father is guarding you. Your Mother is forever by your side protecting you. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit dwell within your heart in such intimacy. My dear ones, children of God, open your hearts and receive the graces that I am giving to you now.
7. Jesus: Prepare ye a way for the Lord. John the Baptist prepared a way for the Lord. I am sending you this day as My apostles into this world. Many will know My ways from the love in your heart. You are My apostles. It is through your example that you will teach many. The lessons to be taught are the lessons of love. You will be judged on how you loved God and loved one another. Like ripples on a pond, one act of love is transmitted and many hearts are touched. My dear ones, open wide your heart and let Me penetrate your soul with My abundant life.
8. R. Mary went to visit Her cousin Elizabeth with the good news. We see the outcome. We see Mary in the windows in this church. The apostles are beneath her. The Holy Spirit descends upon them. They are filled with the Holy Spirit and go into the world. We see their efforts in the world today. We do not see the greatness that occurs when we plant the seeds.
9. Jesus: Let not your hearts be troubled. Satan is pressing down and dividing many of My beloved ones. You must focus on My Heart and know that Satan is at work here. When you are harboring ill thoughts toward any person, Satan is attempting to divide you. Let your hearts be free and your minds be open. Pray for grace to deal with all of the sufferings that you are undergoing. It is in My grace that you will be strengthened. Pray every day for abundant grace to know and love God more. Come to the Eucharist and sit before Me in front of the Tabernacle. I give you My life. You will go about your duties. You will be free in your heart for it is My power that will power you. I am the Almighty God. You are My soldiers that I am sending into this world. In this world, You go into battle every day. I am guarding you and watching you, loving you and protecting you and filling you with My life.
10. Jesus: Come to Me, My beloved ones. I want to hold you close to My Heart. I want to caress and cuddle you and give you My love. I am Jesus, your Savior. I love you. I love you. I love you.

The Birth of the Lord Jesus

1. R. The Hearts of Jesus and Mary beat within the same body. Is there more intimacy than that? For two mysteries of the rosary we see these Two Hearts joined in one body. In the third mystery, the child Jesus is born. Mary was the life support of the physical life of Christ. Although Their bodies are now separated, the life of the child Jesus continues through the milk of His Mother.
2. R. Jesus gave to us His Mother who stood beneath the cross. He gives to us a share in His divine life, merited by His life and, in a special way, by His death on the cross. It is through Mary that we receive this life. She is the Mediatrix of all grace. She gave Jesus the life of his physical body. Grace flows through her to us. It is through Mary that we will be drawn closer and closer to the Heart of Jesus.
3. R. The sheep and the shepherds are around the child Jesus. Jesus Christ, born in a stable, in a manger, in the town of Bethlehem. The Chief Shepherd of the flock, a little baby, comes to this earth. He is not born high and mighty, with gold and silver. Rather, He is wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger, surrounded by sheep and beasts of the earth.
4. R. In the windows in this church we see the child Jesus in His manger, raised above His sheep. We see, in the window across from Jesus' birth, that He is raised above the apostles and going into heaven. Jesus comes to feed His lambs and His sheep. He remains with us in the consecrated Host, but He leaves behind His Blessed Mother and the apostles to carry out the work that He began.
5. R. It is through the apostles that this Church is spread throughout this world. He calls us to be His apostles this day, to go into the world and spread this love. He is Chief Shepherd of the flock. He sends us to feed the hungry souls with His love. Jesus gives us His life in the sacrament of baptism. He nourishes this life by His Body and Blood in the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.
6. R. He no longer walks this earth, but He remains, in His divinity and humanity, no less present today than the day He did walk the earth. He remains in the consecrated Host. He is as present in this room as the day He was born in the town of Bethlehem. Who are we that we have the Presence of the Almighty God? Where Jesus is, so are the Father and the Holy Spirit, for They are three in one. He is so closely united to Mary, His Mother. Mary is also present with us.
   
   Jesus: Many are called, but few are chosen. I have chosen you this day, and I am showering you with My abundant grace, the grace of My life.
7. Song: Come unto Me…
8. Jesus: I give to you. I am the Almighty God. I have all the power. What have you to fear when I have chosen you and you have responded to My call? The Father is pleased with your efforts, My dear children. Live always to do the Will of the Father and you will live in peace and joy.
9. Jesus: I have not come to this earth to divide, but to save men from their sins. I came to this earth to love all of My beloved ones, more and more. My dear one, release all of the anxiety and fear in your heart. Let Me bathe you in a bath of My love. I am Jesus and I am truly present and attentive to all your needs.
10. Jesus: This love is poured into your heart and you know more and more the presence of the Almighty God. Feel this presence within you. Release and let go of all distractions. I am the Almighty God and I am truly present.

The Presentation of Our Lord in the Temple

1. R. The child Jesus was taken to the Temple and presented to the Father.
2. R. Mary was told by Simeon of the sufferings to come. He said to Mary, "…and a sword will pierce your soul too." (Lk 2:35)
3. R. Jesus, in His divine knowing, knew at all times all that would occur. Although He was a little baby that could not talk, He was the Almighty God and He knew of all the sufferings. Mary, His beloved Mother was told by Simeon of the sufferings to come. We see in many of the pictures, like the one of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, the looks on the faces of Jesus and Mary, for they shared within Their Hearts the deep secret that they knew that the cross would come. They went through Their lives and shared this secret in Their Hearts of the sufferings to come. They knew that Jesus would suffer. Simeon said to Mary, "…and a sword will pierce your soul too." (Lk 2:35) A sword pierced the Heart of Jesus, and what came forth was blood and water, the birth of the sacramental life of the Church. This life flows through the pierced Heart of the Virgin Mary, for she is the Mediatrix of all graces. It is through her motherhood that we receive the life of Christ. As Christ received His life within Her womb, so we receive His life in the Church through the Virgin Mary. We receive this life through our Mother.
4. R. Let our hearts be filled with the life of the Almighty God. May our hearts sing, for we are given great gifts. In this room today, the Almighty God is present. His Mother is with us, mothering us and loving us.
5. R. Who are we that we are called to this Center, and that Jesus and Mary speak to us? This is a mission to spread the love of the Almighty God to the world. We must be attentive to this call, for God is calling us to do this work. We must let God work in our lives. We must silence the prompting of Satan to divide us. We must silence all of the negative thoughts within our minds and recognize that they are coming from Satan. We must pray for the grace to realize the great gifts that we are given. The Almighty God has chosen us. Many are called, but few are chosen.
   
   Jesus: I have chosen each one of you. If you are hearing this message, you know you are hearing it because the Almighty God is calling you to a special mission. You are My soldiers that I am sending into the world to spread My light to all the dark corners. I am giving you great graces to do the work at hand. Open wide your hearts. Let go of all anger and resentment, any thoughts you have against your brothers, and love them. I call you to love, to love all men. I shed My blood for them. Love and you will be free. If you hold on to anger and resentment, your heart will be troubled and at unrest.
6. Jesus: Satan aims to trip you up and stop you in your path. The Almighty God is speaking to you. What have you to fear? Father, Son and Holy Spirit live within your heart. If the world shakes and the sun ceases to shine, within your heart you can feel the presence of your Father, Son and Holy Spirit so close to you and loving you. Release all your anxieties and let Me bathe you in a bath of My love. I am Jesus, and I am outpouring to you My life.
7. Jesus: The seeds of time move exceedingly slowly, but I see all time as one. My dear ones, see your life before you, from your birth to your death. Do not focus on the minutes and the seconds of this day. See the souls that will be paraded into hell some day because they did not respond to the grace that I am giving to them. I am sending you on a great mission. How you act, how you love in this world, will make the difference to many. See the big picture. Do not focus on the moments and the seconds in your life. Look, My dear one. Pray to the Spirit to open up your eyes and fill you with My grace. Where you are blind, you will now see.
8. R. The Presentation in the Temple is such an important mystery! Mary was told that a sword, too, would pierce her soul. All grace is released through Mary.
9. Jesus: Come unto Me, My beloved ones. I want to hold you gently in My arms and press you close to My Heart. I am Jesus. I speak to you with tenderness and love. You do not hear the gentle words that I speak to you, for you are busy and your lives are noisy. Release yourselves and come away with Me for short moments all through the day. Feel the presence of the Almighty God as I live and dwell within your hearts. I love you. I love you. I love you. I give to you now My abundant life. I am strengthening you for the days ahead. You are My soldiers that I will send to light up the dark night.
10. R. And she stands beneath the cross. I hear the wailing cries of the Virgin Mary as she sees her Son hang and suffer for three agonizing hours. She knows of the little children that will be condemned to hell forever, the little hearts that were willful, that did not accept the great grace that Jesus merited through His death.

The Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple

1. R. The child Jesus was taken up to the Temple for the feast of Passover. Mary's Heart ached constantly from the prophecy of Simeon. Feel in your heart as Mary felt. She knew ever since the prophecy of Simeon of the suffering to come. There was such a connection between Jesus and Mary, such intimacy between them! We see the Two Hearts beating within her body in the first two mysteries of the rosary. She provides life for Jesus through her milk in the third mystery. She comes to the Temple with the child Jesus in her arms and Simeon tells her of the sufferings to come. Now they take the child Jesus to the Temple. Jesus is separated from Mary and Joseph. Mary and Joseph go on their way and Jesus is left behind. When Mary realizes that the child Jesus was left behind, her Heart is in such sorrow! She returns to find the child Jesus.
2. R. I see all through the mysteries of the rosary the intimacy between Jesus and Mary. This separation was so painful to Mary, for she knew of the separation to come. When she found the child Jesus, she said to Him, "Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been looking for you with great anxiety." In her Heart, she knew the sufferings of Jesus to come. In the windows in this chapel, across from the Finding of Jesus in the Temple, is the Death of Jesus on the Cross. This was a small separation between her and her child. She searched, she knew of the sufferings to come. She knew of a more drastic separation. He would be locked in the tomb. Her Heart was in such sorrow, for she knew far more than what we see.
3. R. Mary carried many things in her Heart. Few times we hear her speak. There was a secret between her and her Son all through Their lives.
4. R. A sword, too, shall pierce your Heart, O Mary. Our eternal life was merited by Christ's life and death on the cross. Water and blood poured forth from His pierced Heart. Life flows through Mary's pierced Heart to us for she is the Mediatrix of all graces. Our Mother, giving to us, dispensing to us this life. As she gave life to the physical body of Jesus, so she dispenses supernatural life to us.
5. R. We are being formed more and more in the spiritual womb of Mary, through the Holy Spirit, to be more and more like Jesus.
6. Mary: My dear little children, I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to pray as you have never prayed before from your heart for all the little lost children in this world today. I stood under the cross and I watched my Son as He suffered and died. This day, my dear ones, many of my children will be lost forever, for their hearts are willful and they go about their lives in sin. Jesus loves each and every child. I am the Mother of each child. I love each one of my children, your brothers. Will you pray from your hearts, my dear children? Pray for all the little lost children of this world. I am Mary, your Mother, and I am asking you this day to hear my words. I speak to you with this urgent request to pray as you have never prayed before.
7. Mary: My Heart was in such sorrow for the loss of my child! My Heart is sorrowing for the loss of so many this day. My dear little children, pray. Offer your days, each day, to the Father in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in the Spirit, with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory. Offer up all of your actions for the little children of this world who are suffering and in pain.
8. Mary: I am Mary, your Mother. I speak to you. This is an urgent request. Let go and come to the Heart of my Son. He will fill you with such love and you will go into this world. You will spread this love. Pray to the Father. Come to my Heart and dwell in my Heart. For I dwell in the Heart of my Son, and I will place you in the deepest recesses of His Heart. Pray to the Holy Spirit. My dear ones, when you are filled with the love of God, when you come from a place where your hearts are filled with love, you will give love to all in this world. When your hearts are sorrowing and in pain, come to the Almighty God. Spend quiet moments with Him, and let Him fill you with His love. My Son Jesus is waiting and waiting, minute by minute, second by second, for you to come. Come, my little children, to the Heart of my Son.
9. Jesus: Many are called, but few are chosen. You have been called to the house of My Mother to hear this message. I am Jesus, your beloved Savior. I speak to you, My dear ones, with a soft and gentle Heart, always a Heart that is filled with such love! Come to Me and I will give to you all that you need. This world is hurting and in pain, and I am sending you into the world as My soldiers to light the darkness. My dear little ones, this world has turned godless. You must focus on the Almighty God. Do not let Satan talk in your minds to divide you. Do not harbor in your hearts any resentment or anger toward your brothers. Harboring this resentment and anger hurts your union with Me. Only a heart of love can properly unite with My Heart. I call you to holiness. I call you to open up your hearts and let Me enter. I will give to you My divine life and My divine love. I am Jesus. I talk to you gently and sweetly. Do you hear? It is in the quietness that you will hear My gentle voice. I am attentive to your every need, gently caring for each and every one of the tasks that you perform. I love you! I love you! I love you! Surrender, My dear ones, and know that I will never abandon you. I wait by the door of your heart. I wait, I wait, I wait. Will you open your heart and let Me in? Trade any bitterness for My divine love. I am Jesus, your beloved Savior. I gave My life for you. Will you love your hurting brothers for Me?
10. Hail Mary…
    
    R. Mary said to tell you that She has called each and every person here. She wants you to answer this call. The time is urgent and this world is in need of your prayers. Come to her Son in the Eucharist and in front of the Tabernacle. It is there that He will instruct you in the ways He wants you to go. You are loved far beyond your comprehension. It is in Him that you will find peace and joy. He has all the answers for your life. Do not pick up your phones and complain and argue. Come to the Heart of Jesus and feel the peace that He gives to you. Feel the life that He outpours. He is the Almighty God and He has all the power. Amen.

Song: I come to you with greatest love…

The Seven Sorrows of Mary…

R. Jesus said, "I love you! I love you! I love you!" He wants hearts that are on fire for love of Him. He wants to hear from your lips the words of your love. He is waiting and longing and thirsting. He loves you personally. He loves you so much!
