R. We must worship God —
Not see our will and try to make
everyone fit into our system —
Our system - how we can try to
mold the world so we are
comfortable and don't have
to change —
disregarding our dysfunction —
to try to mold the world on our
system - not God's
Force is used - stepping on others
to do it according to our
system, our will - not God's
The power used is attack
Wars for dominance
Not the power of the Word
The power of the Sword - Rebellion
against God —
Religious Freedom
In all we do being a
witness of hope —
We wear many hats —
God has given us many
roles, many talents —
God has given us many things
to mold our hearts —
We are a gift from heaven
for the world —
A witness to God —
Loving —
Being molded more and more
in the image of God —
Our childhood is to prepare
us for this witness to hope —

The Church is the body of Christ —
Freedom?? — The freedom
comes from doing God's will —
The devil attacks with trying
to implement systems
opposed to God's will —
Hitler wanted to kill Jews —
holocaust
Today we kill babies to

"nobody gets in my way"
Freedom to kill babies in
the womb is not
Freedom — freedom
is doing God's will —
God gives us commandments
We are under His system —
but we have a free will —
to put ourselves first —
fight to implement our
system —
What is comfortable for us
so we don't have to
change and grow —
Rebelling against God's
system for the human
race is disobedience
to God who said He
is to be first —
See through our disharmonious,
disunited eyes —
Shadow government —
Discredit those in authority
doing God's will —
Use force (the sword)
to implement our system —
A religious order is to live by
God's rule — So they have
a rule —
There is authority, under God,
structure - obedience
The Family is to be under God's
will - under God —
Not the dysfunction of a
tyrant, perfectionist
father,
but husbands and wives marry —
children are olive plants
around the table —
Jesus told me
dirt and the seed —
God provides the sun and
the water

Authority is obeyed
Rules are implemented
Forming
Parishes
Individual Christians
Families
Religious Orders
ACCORDING TO CHRIST's IMAGE
Mary is the Mother —
The Holy Spirit works to form us in
the image of Jesus —
Mary and Holy Spirit are Sanctifiers
Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"
Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us.

Shepherds of Christ Priestly Newsletter - From 2000 - Issue 3
The Holy Spirit And Mary
The late Archbishop Luis M. Martinez of Mexico strikingly speaks of the ongoing cooperation of Mary with the Holy Spirit regarding the reproduction of Jesus within us: "Christian life is the reproduction of Jesus in souls…
"Now, how will this mystical reproduction be brought about in souls? In the same way in which Jesus was brought into the world, for God gives a wonderful mark of unity to all His works. Divine acts have a wealth of variety because they are the work of omnipotence; nevertheless, a most perfect unity always shines forth from them because they are the fruit of wisdom; and this divine contrast of unity and variety stamps the works of God with sublime and unutterable beauty.
"In His miraculous birth, Jesus was the fruit of heaven and earth…The Holy Spirit conveyed the divine fruitfulness of the Father to Mary, and the virginal soil brought forth in an ineffable manner our most loving Savior, the divine Seed, as the prophets called Him…
"That is the way He is reproduced in souls. He is always the fruit of heaven and earth.
"Two artisans must concur in the work that is at once God’s masterpiece and humanity’s supreme product: the Holy Spirit and the most holy Virgin Mary. Two sanctifiers are necessary to souls, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, for they are the only ones who can reproduce Christ.
"Undoubtedly, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary sanctify us in different ways. The first is the Sanctifier by essence; because He is God, who is infinite sanctity; because He is the personal Love that completes, so to speak, the sanctity of God, consummating His life and His unity, and it belongs to Him to communicate to souls the mystery of that sanctity. The Virgin Mary, for her part, is the co-operator, the indispensable instrument in and by God’s design. From Mary’s maternal relation to the human body of Christ is derived her relation to His Mystical Body which is being formed through all the centuries until the end of time, when it will be lifted up to the heavens, beautiful, splendid, complete, and glorious.
"These two, then, the Holy Spirit and Mary, are the indispensable artificers of Jesus, the indispensable sanctifiers of souls. Any saint in heaven can co-operate in the sanctification of a soul, but his co-operation is not necessary, not profound, not constant: while the co-operation of these two artisans of Jesus of whom we have just been speaking is so necessary that without it souls are not sanctified (and this by the actual design of Providence), and so intimate that it reaches to the very depths of our soul. For the Holy Spirit pours charity into our heart, makes a habitation of our soul, and directs our spiritual life by means of His gifts. The Virgin Mary has the efficacious influence of Mediatrix in the most profound and delicate operations of grace in our souls. And, finally, the action of the Holy Spirit and the co-operation of the most holy Virgin Mary are constant; without them, not one single character of Jesus would be traced on our souls, no virtue grow, no gift be developed, no grace increased, no bond of union with God be strengthened in the rich flowering of the spiritual life.
"Such is the place that the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary have in the order of sanctification. Therefore, Christian piety should put these two artisans of Christ in their true place, making devotion to them something necessary, profound, and constant." 18

R. Whenever a man starts
implementing his system —
he can discredit real authority —
God —
he discredits those in
authority doing God's system
He does so because he is working
for satan —
He wants things His way
not God's —
He wants people bowing to
him —
He sees himself up and
others down —
God created us uniquely
special for a purpose —
to all work as one —
making our contribution and
building His Kingdom
The man building his own system
sees himself first —
others are to serve him —
he uses force (the sword of
some sort) to implement his way —
he (working as satan does)
attacks well established
rules - promoting God's Kingdom
Excerpt of The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, by Louis J. Puhl, S.J.
136. THE FOURTH DAY
A MEDITATION ON TWO STANDARDS
The one of Christ, our supreme leader and lord,
the other of Lucifer, the deadly enemy of our
human naturePRAYER. The usual preparatory prayer.
window at a former Jesuit Seminary
137. FIRST PRELUDE. This is the history. Here it will be that Christ calls and wants all beneath His standard, and Lucifer, on the other hand, wants all under his.
138. SECOND PRELUDE. This is a mental representation of the place. It will be here to see a great plain, comprising the whole region about Jerusalem, where the sovereign Commander-in-Chief of all the good is Christ our Lord; and another plain about the region of Babylon, where the chief of the enemy is Lucifer.
139. THIRD PRELUDE. This is to ask for what I desire. Here it will be to ask for a knowledge of the deceits of the rebel chief and help to guard myself against them; and also to ask for a knowledge of the true life exemplified in the sovereign and true Commander, and the grace to imitate Him.
FIRST PART
THE STANDARD OF SATAN
140. FIRST POINT. Imagine you see the chief of all the enemy in the vast plain about Babylon, seated on a great throne of fire and smoke, his appearance inspiring horror and terror.
141. SECOND POINT. Consider how he summons innumerable demons, and scatters them, some to one city and some to another, throughout the whole world, so that no province, no place, no state of life, no individual is overlooked.
142. THIRD POINT. Consider the address he makes to them, how he goads them on to lay snares for men and bind them with chains. First they are to tempt them to covet riches (as Satan himself is accustomed to do in most cases) that they may the more easily attain the empty honors of this world, and then come to overweening pride.
The first step, then, will be riches, the second honor, the third pride. From these three steps the evil one leads to all other vices.
SECOND PART
THE STANDARD OF CHRIST
143. In a similar way, we are to picture to ourselves the sovereign and true Commander, Christ our Lord.
144. FIRST POINT. Consider Christ our Lord, standing in a lowly place in a great plain about the region of Jerusalem, His appearance beautiful and attractive.
145. SECOND POINT. Consider how the Lord of all the world chooses so many persons, apostles, disciples, etc., and sends them throughout the whole world to spread His sacred doctrine among all men, no matter what their state or condition.
146. THIRD POINT. . . .

R. CONVERSION —
The sun gives light —
But we can be blind and keep serving
ourselves, give into
satan —
Wait until it gets really
bad, from our own making —
Jesus says:
The Blood of the babies is
on the United States —
Killing is sinning —
Unless the messages of My
love are circulated the
Blood shed in the Church
will continue —
R. Changing lives - for love,
selflessness —
Being under God —
Being a witness of hope —
Loving God FIRST —
Loving others as ourselves —
Reality - what is Real is
God's Plan —
An altered reality exists
where one tries to implement
their system - their will
over God's
Living according to God's will —
Doing it His way —
Putting God first —
Living in the image of Christ —
Conversion —
Rooted in Christ —
Song: Come With Me Into the Fields
R. Did you see a road hog,
The road is a public
through far —
A person is going the right
speed —
A selfish person comes —
is angry - from behind —
they want the other to
get out of their way —
They drive close —
They try to force
the other to move —
They are selfish and use
force to get their way —
Sue didn't have friends —
she didn't like
gatherings - when she
came to them - she caused
problems - rebellion —
arguing —
this was normal to her —
always conflict - always
a problem, a challenge —
She was mad inside from
a failed relationship —
she hurt others because
she never wanted to trust
anybody again —
Since this is against God's rule
of love - who forgives and
wants us one —
she distanced herself from
God with her angry
closed-down heart —
Noses are meant for breathing —
when they are clogged up
little or no air
goes through —
Being clogged with unforgiveness —
blocks loving heart-felt
responses —
The person is always living
in the past in an
angry house —
Surrounded by people —
Acts as a threat to their
no trust, no feel,
no talk world —
So they try to force things around
them to put on —
not Christ and being loving —
but - closing in —
being isolated —
argumentative
provoking themselves "smarter"
and "better" than others —
BAGGAGE —
No work is done —
only another day to rebel
against God's system
of love —
The consequences are an
even more angry
heart —
When skin is old and
saggy creams are
used to lighten the
skin —
Hearts are meant for love
When anger dresses a
heart - it tightens
up and is full of fear —
closed in, in selfishness and
even rigid —
not spontaneous —
always controlled for fear
of being out of control —
controlling others
Not living in the moment
Rigid
Controlling others and things around
them —
Wanting a "that a way boy"
because they don't feel
good —
They can think they are above
everyone —
because of their low
self-esteem
ALWAYS Focused
on Self —
From old training - survival
tactics learned —
being afraid to be wrong —
having been taught punishment
to be perfect by a
demanding parent
Rebelling against working to
solve simple problems —
Challenging and building walls
because they can't
be comfortable with
others —
Working against authority
and making problem, after
problem, after problem —
They learned to be opposed
to what is working.
They did this out of their own pride
and wanting to be followed.
They wanted to be the boss
and to feel superior
over the authority —
From the Priestly Newsletter Book III - 2000 Issue 3 p. 44-45
The Father's Will for Us - Our Source of Peace
Pope John Paul II instructs us: "The Church, as a reconciled and reconciling community, cannot forget that at the source of her gift and mission of reconciliation is the initiative, full of compassionate love and mercy, of that God who is love (see 1 John 4:8) and who out of love created human beings (see Wisdom 11:23-26; Genesis 1:27: Psalms 8:4-8)…He created them so that they might live in friendship with Him and in communion with one another.
"God is faithful to His eternal plan even when man, under the impulse of the evil one (see Wisdom 2:24) and carried away by his own pride, abuses the freedom given to him in order to love and generously seek what is good, and (instead) refuses to obey his Lord and Father. God is faithful even when man, instead of responding with love to God’s love, opposes Him and treats Him like a rival, deluding himself and relying on his own power, with the resulting break of relationship with the One who created him. In spite of this transgression on man’s part, God remains faithful in love.
"It is certainly true that the story of the Garden of Eden makes us think about the tragic consequences of rejecting the Father, which becomes evident in man’s inner disorder and in the breakdown of harmony between man and woman, brother and brother (see Genesis 3:12 ff; 4:1-16). Also significant is the Gospel parable of the two brothers (the parable of the ‘prodigal son’; see Luke 15:11-32) who, in different ways, distance themselves from their father and cause a rift between them. Refusal of God’s fatherly love and of His loving gifts is always at the root of humanity’s divisions.
"But we know that God…like the father in the parable (of the prodigal son), does not close His heart to any of His children. He waits for them, looks for them, goes to meet them at the place where the refusal of communion imprisons them in isolation and division. He calls them to gather about His table in the joy of the feast of forgiveness and reconciliation.
"This initiative on God’s part is made concrete and manifest in the redemptive act of Christ, which radiates through the world by means of the ministry of the Church." 13
13. Pope John Paul II, as in Celebrate 2000!, Servant Publications, pp. 140-141.
Blue Book 8

A Seed Brings Forth Harvest to Feed Mankind
Jesus: So, too, you plant the seeds, My beloved. Do not look back. It is in My mighty power that they prosper and they grow. I give life to a child in the womb. God, in His omnipotence can give a grace to help heal the hardest heart but they must want to change.
R. We must pray. God is Divine and all powerful. Jesus calmed the storm, made the lame walk, the blind to see. We pray and He, in His power, answers our prayers accordingly.
Jesus is the Son of God. Limitless and boundless, Omnipotence of God. God is omnipotent, without bounds, Jesus subjected Himself to His persecutors.
I live the life, death and resurrection of Jesus in my life.
My freedom is in living in the Father's will.
In death - there is the resurrection.
I am a human person —
God gives us a sharing in His life in baptism.Our knowing and loving capacity is elevated in baptism.
August 19, 1995
R. Notes — July 19th - had a pain in my foot, Saturday night and all day Sunday.
It was a strong pain, as a nail in my left foot. I read the message of June 26, 1995.
I had pains up my arms the day before.I see Mary giving birth to Jesus. Mary Mother of the Church, giving birth to the Church.
We are underestimating the action of the Holy Spirit. We see the Holy Spirit in the Descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles. The Apostles locked themselves in the room after the Ascension. Look at them at the resurrection. The Apostles slept in the agony in the garden, most of them abandoning Him during the Passion. They didn't understand the Resurrection. They locked themselves in the room after the Ascension.
All of a sudden they are fearless because of the Descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles.
John speaks of being one in Him - the apostle He loved - stood under the cross, the apostle He used to represent us.
John wrote of love in the Word.
They were filled with burning love. "Are not our hearts burning within us."
The Holy Spirit gave them the fearlessness to act.
I know Jesus is alive, He lives in us, He lives in the consecrated Host, He lives. He told me so on Ascension Thursday. The Holy Spirit imparts to us wisdom. We know Mary is the New Eve, Jesus, the New Adam. We are fighting against satan.
August 22, 1995
Jesus: Satan is pressing down so hard and I am giving to you personal messages to help you deal with all the problems. You are suffering from the great efforts of satan to stop these messages.
I beg you to read these messages. You are My instruments to spread the love of God across the world. If satan can press on you, then He will try to stop this movement. You must proceed steadfastly ahead. I am giving you personal messages every day in My letters and the rosaries.
I beg you to listen. The Holy Spirit will fill you with the fearlessness of the apostles. So many were converted because of the fearlessness of the apostles. You are My apostles that I am sending into this world. You are My precious ones. I am talking to you and giving you great gifts. I have chosen you. I am talking to you. This is My mission for you.
If satan can convince you, you are too busy to read My messages, you will not hear the help I am sending you.
So many souls will be lost to the fires of hell. You have the key to set their hearts on fire with My burning love. You will be pressed on from all sides, the more this Movement moves ahead. I am your strength. I am the light I Am Who Am - the Almighty God. I have all the power. In one day I can turn the sawdust into a temple, towering over the city.
I give to you the mighty medicine to turn men's hearts to the burning love of My Heart. I beg you to listen and not give in to satan who is aimed at stopping you. All there need these rosary meditations and messages.
I am writing to you this day. No one pays heed to the help I am sending. See My Mother calling you to help the little children of the world that could lose their souls!
All involved must spend one hour in front of the tabernacle. Unless you are saturated with My life, you get human minds working on a Divine Plan. Only with deep holiness and life rooted in Me can your Movement move across America. It will spread into foreign countries by its momentum in this country.
I Am Who Am. I am God. You are My chosen ones to carry this across the world. I love you so much.
Do not focus on the problems. Who will I call if you say no? I am calling you to be My chosen one to carry out this worldwide Movement. The love of Our Two Hearts will spread across America. Do not give in to any attempts by satan to stop you.
I am all powerful. The power is in Me. Do not look to the world to see how you are doing, come to the tabernacle and I will shower you with My grace. I will bathe you in My love. I will give you all you need. You are My beloved one. Stay steadfast and rooted in Me.
Read May 13, 1993 Blue Book I.
August 21, 1995
R. Notes — I am so far from imitating Jesus and Mary. I felt irritated all day Monday and was tired. I didn't get up and pray. I am not the light shining in the darkness. I want His life in me, so deep. I want Him deeper and deeper. I feel this in my insides, to want to unite with Him in every way.
To be in the Mass with Him, to be one in the Sacrifice of the Mass. I want to grow in my image and likeness of God, to give myself entirely, but there is a holding back.
I feed myself with food. I get tired. I tell others my complaints. I want to be as He wants me to be.
I have weaknesses, I can be focused on myself. I want to tell all of His burning love. I want to be as He wants me to be, to live to please Him and never offend Him.
August 23, 1995
R. Jesus said to me "The Spirit of the Lord dwells within you! I am life. The way of the Spirit is the way to peace and order."
Jesus said: The way to intimacy with Me is to go to the Heart of Mary and ask the Holy Spirit to help you to be more and more like Jesus. Ask the Holy Spirit to give you an increase of the virtues. Go to the Eucharist!!
Jesus: I am one with the Father. To be one with Mary is to be one with the Father.
Revelation 12: 1
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.
R. Mary appeared and said "I am the Mother of the Light. Mary is our Lady of Light, adorned in beauty, chosen by the Father - the new Eve. Mary was conceived without sin. Mary came to this earth pure to carry the Son of God. She loved the Father. Mary is the woman of light.
Luke 1: 35 The angel answered, ‘The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will cover you with its shadow. And so the child will be holy and will be called Son of God.
R. Jesus' Sacred Heart was formed in the womb of Mary.
Are we so blind not to see the Lady of Light, the Lady of Fatima in the Americas, the Lady of Clearwater?
R. The Holy Spirit imparts to us the gifts of wisdom, understanding and knowledge to know and love God with our whole heart, our whole soul and our whole being.
August 24, 1995
R. Jesus is alive this day. Jesus is waiting to be so close to us. Jesus no longer walks the earth. Jesus gives us the great gift of Himself. Jesus comes to us in the Holy Eucharist. Jesus unites with us in great oneness. More than any knowledge acquired in our mind, Jesus imprints on our hearts a knowledge only attained in deep intimacy with Him.
Jesus no longer walks this earth, but He, God, gives us Himself. We receive the Son of God within us and He cries out for such intimacy with us.
We are called in baptism to go out and spread the good news. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit live in our graced baptized soul. Jesus lives in this world in us. Jesus is alive and He lives in the hearts of men.
As we are in our hearts, so shall we be in this world. "Are not our hearts burning within us as God dwells in us. Who are we that the Father so loved this world that He gave His only Son for love of us! We are His chosen ones -- the flock He calls this day to go out to the world and spread the message of His deep and burning love.
His love is not a lip serve love, it is the love that He gives. Jesus gave Himself for love of us to His death on the cross. Are not our hearts burning and one fire for this love of our Divine Savior?
Jesus gives to us Himself this day in the Holy Eucharist. We can unite in such oneness with God more than any human person on earth. We are elevated to such heights by His great gifts to us.
Let us pray to the Holy Spirit every day to fill our hearts with the fire of God's love. It is vibrant, burning love. Let the spirit live within us. Let us seek the Holy Spirit in our lives. The Spirit leads us to such intimacy with Jesus. Jesus transforms our hearts and works such wonders in the heart of our Beloved Mother. We love in Mary's heart. We dwell in the Heart of Jesus. The Holy Spirit molds and shapes us to be more like Jesus. As we become more like Jesus, we become closer to the Father. Jesus and the Father are one.
He is alive, He is alive, He is alive and He lives in our hearts. Let us pray for an outpouring of His grace to know and love Him more.
August 27, 1995 - Sunday after Mass - 8:30am
R. Jesus knows us, the intentions in our heart, Jesus knows everything about us. We are the lights that shine in the darkest night when we are holy and filled with His grace. The Sisters and the priests are His stars in the dark sky when they are growing in greater and greater holiness.
Jesus: Light this world with the fire of My love. O, My beloved priests and Sisters - so as you are in your heart, you will be in this world.
R. Let your light shine. Our blessed Mother appears as our Lady of Light, to light up the dark night.
As our hearts are united to His Heart and her heart, as we are saturated with God's life, dwelling in Their Hearts, we shine in this world as His light in the darkness.
Let your light shine, let His life grow in you, dwelling constantly in Their Hearts. We are the lights beaming brightly in the darkest night, forever gleaming, forever lighted, Their life an endless source of power radiating through us.
Life comes from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through Mary's heart to our heart as we operate in the world - living in Him.
Jesus: You are the lights shining in this world. Let your light shine as you dwell in Our Hearts and are saturated with Our life.
I am alive, I am alive, I am alive and I live in this world through you. I give you this commission to go into the world and spread the good news: Jesus died, He is risen, and He will come again.
I see My beloved ones, your hearts and your souls. Purify your hearts, clean your hearts, let your hearts live and dwell in Our Hearts. So as you are in your hearts, you will be in the world. I love you, I love you, I love you!
August 29, 1995 - Feast of John the Baptist
R. As we all carry this message of love in our hearts, we will unite as one in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
I cannot talk about my brothers if I am filled with Their love. Let us all be channels of Their peace and love as we join in one heart and praise God for the great gifts given to us this day. There will be an era of peace, the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph and the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign as the individual hearts are joined in deepest union with the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
Jesus: You must circulate these messages of My love. This is the mighty medicine for this sick world: Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and God's Blue Books.
I Am Who Am. I came into this world a little baby in the manger. I hung on the cross for three agonizing hours. My way is the way of giving love, My way is the way of living in the will of My Father. It is in uniting to My Heart that you become one in Him, in the Holy Spirit, in the heart of Mary.
It is so simple and you have made it so complicated. Is is the story of My life, living within your hearts. I am alive, I am alive, I am alive. Men have hardened their hearts. Unless you circulate these messages of My burning love, you will remain in a state of urgency. I am writing to be heard.
Unless you unite in one heart, in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, you will experience such hardship and pain. Satan has attempted to stop My messages for the past two years.
I am patient and loving. You will know such trials as you have never known, the more you do your own wills. I want to be obeyed. I want My messages circulated and published. These messages, given in the rosary, are from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Your answers are in the Blue Books. Play your games and you will suffer. I have stated in My messages all that is occurring.
I am Jesus. You will continue to suffer much pain and hardship. I love you, I love you - this is the mighty medicine for the sick world. I give to you God's Blue Books and Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
I want all of My messages circulated and published. You have held back all messages. I beg you to circulate the messages given in the book, Tell My People. Messages from Me are being ignored. You will continue to divide and suffer. I am begging you to listen to My messages given to My messengers. I am Jesus. I have spoken.
R. I live in Him, through Him and with Him and then I live as His instrument in the world. Minute by minute, second by second, my joy is true joy for I am united in His life. All my love relationships must be modeled after the perfect love existing in the Persons of the Trinity.
To appeal to the flesh leaves a person empty for it does not fill, it leaves a person wanting and thirsting more for God. I become frustrated and do not even know it. I see clearly before my eyes the things of God as He unites to me, my soul is filled and I see things in their proper perspective. The body is created by God for His honor and glory. We think - the flesh must be better, excitement better, food better - we must have more money. I must have more things - all of these appeal more and more to the flesh. I must do God's will with things and people. I must live in love.
What is starving is the soul, which is only filled with the love of God. No beautiful body will fill the soul, no human person will fill the soul. Only God will satisfy the craving for God. Nothing can be placed ahead of Him. The more I try to make my body more appealing, the more I attempt to find a person to be ahead of God, I end up indulging the flesh and am left empty. God must be first.
I love God in a deep, interior union with Him if I am aware of the presence of God within my graced soul. I am in awe of His presence. I love myself and respect myself as so precious to Him.
I believe in Him. I love Him. My great love is in the Eucharist. He gives Himself to me. He gives me His all. I give Him my all. I do not hug Him or touch Him as I would another human person, I speak to Him in my heart. I become more and more one in Him, I realize the presence of God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit within me at every second. As I am one in Him, I no longer live, it is He who lives in me. He is in me as I am living in this world. Jesus, united to me in a deeper transforming union and I no longer reach for the things of the flesh and this world for I realize more and more as He imparts His grace, His life, that His gift of Himself given to me -- He fills me, I must stay rooted in Him.
August 29, 1995
(Received in my car, transcribed from a tape)R. The relationship with God and with Neighbor:
My relationship with you is totally meaningless if it is not rooted in my love of God. My relationship with you, must be based on the Hearts of Jesus and in the heart of Mary for it is in Him that I am, that I move, that I exist. I live with Him, through Him and in Him. Jesus is My beloved Savior! My life has meaning only in Him. If I see before me your heart, your soul, I cannot help but love you for to see your soul is to want to see the reflection of God that lives within you. As I find my life in being united to Him, my very reason for existence being that of loving Him, than I seek to lead you ever closer to His burning love. I see before me the heart of another if I see before me their soul. All of my actions are to lead the soul to the love of God. All of my actions are to care and to love the heart that I see. I cannot gaze into your eyes and see your precious face and see your heart before and cause you ill will, for to see the heart of another rooted in Him is to want to love with the love of God that is within. How tenderly He loved each and every soul that He gave His very life, His breath, His flesh and His blood for that soul.
Whatever I do, my heart cries out for deeper and deeper union with Him. I want to live in Him deeper and deeper. To live in Him is to love. He loves all that He creates with the deepest love. To love Him is to love as He loves. He loved you so much that He gave His flesh and His blood. He calls me to love as He loved, to lay down my life for my brothers.
The heart is the life of the soul. So as I am in my heart, I will be in this world. To live in Him, with Him, and through Him is to love as He loves. He calls us to this love. We are commissioned in Baptism to live His life, death and resurrection in our lives.
It is in our calling to serve Him, to love Him, to be one in Him. How tenderly the Son of God unites to His beloved creatures! The gift given to us far surpasses our comprehension. Let us pray more and more for the grace to unite deeper and deeper with this burning heart of endless love.

Guiding Light homily series — Reflect on the Word — Cycle B The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15 |
|
Guiding Light homily series — Steadfast to the Son — Cycle A The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 | ||
|
Guiding Light — Feed My Soul — Cycle C In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |
Guiding Light — Focusing on the Word — Cycle B At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |
|
Guiding Light — The Word Alive in Our Hearts. — Cycle A (partial) Homilies by the Reverend Joe Robinson given at St. Boniface Church in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is a tremendous honor Fr. Joe has allowed us to share these great gifts with you – for greater holiness and knowing more and more about God. $10 |
