                From Jr. Joe Last Sunday
 

Daniel 12: 1-3

‘At that time Michael will arise–the great Prince, defender of your people. That will be a time of great distress, unparalleled since nations first came into existence. When that time comes, your own people will be spared–all those whose names are found written in the Book.

‘Of those who are sleeping in the Land of Dust, many will awaken, some to everlasting life, some to shame and everlasting disgrace. Those who are wise will shine as brightly as the expanse of the heavens, and those who have instructed many in uprightness, as bright as stars for all eternity.

 

  Hebrews 10: 11-14

Every priest stands at his duties every day, offering over and over again the same sacrifices which are quite incapable of taking away sins. He, on the other hand, has offered one single sacrifice for sins, and then taken his seat for ever, at the right hand of God, where he is now waiting till his enemies are made his footstool. By virtue of that one single offering, he has achieved the eternal perfection of all who are sanctified.

When these have been forgiven, there can be no more sin offerings.

   

Mark 13: 24-32

'But in those days, after that time of distress, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will come falling out of the sky and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.  And then they will see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. And then he will send the angels to gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the world to the ends of the sky.

 'Take the fig tree as a parable: as soon as its twigs grow supple and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. So with you when you see these things happening: know that he is near, right at the gates. In truth I tell you, before this generation has passed away all these things will have taken place. Sky and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. 'But as for that day or hour, nobody knows it, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son; no one but the Father.

 

 

                R. We are called by Our Lady of Fatima to make
                    reparation to the Heart of Jesus
                    for our sins and the sins of
                    others —

                Christ came, the Son of God,
                    He showed us
                    Death/Resurrection —

                He died for our sins

                Jesus says:

                R. We make reparation to God by
                living the Father's will in love —

                Christ's sacrifice

                Christ's entire life, Fr. Carter says, was a
                constant, loving submission to His Father's will,
                and Calvary was the supreme expression
                of such submission.

                This interior disposition of Christ was
                present during His entire life.

                    In this we die to our will —
                we are dying to ourselves
                to conform to the will of the Father.

                    We unite to the Holy Sacrifice
                of the Mass in all we do as
                an offering of our lives,
                given to the Father - to please
                Him, to love Him.

 

    John 17: 20-23

I pray not only for these
but also for those
who through their teaching
will come to believe in me.
May they all be one,
just as, Father, you are in me
   and I am in you,
so that they also may be in us,
so that the world may believe
it was you who sent me.
I have given them the glory
   you gave to me,
that they may be one as we are one.
With me in them and you in me,
may they be so perfected in unity
that the world will recognise
   that it was you who sent me
and that you have loved them
as you have loved me.

 

                R. We live Christ's life, death and
                resurrection in our lives!!

                Christ shows us a picture of
                    His Heart - the Heart of
                    Greatest love —
                    On fire!!
                    Exposed on His Chest!!

                Love beyond Love -
                Love beyond our imagining!

                A Glow of Christ's love
                    in the world!

                We must have enthusiasm,
                    zeal for Christ —
                    warmth and love —
                    devotion to His Heart of love —
                    not rigid, stoicism —
                        coldness, selfishness

                We must develop in Christ-likeness —
                    grow in Christian maturity —
                    put on Christ —

                    pray for ourselves in the state of becoming
                    pray for the priests in the state of becoming
                    pray for the Church in the state of becoming
                    pray for the world in the state of becoming

                We have devotion to the Heart of
                    greatest love —
                    We share in His warmth and love —
                    We give His love to others —

                We are witnesses of hope in the world —

                We are alive and vibrant in
                    Christ —

                We want to be more perfect
                    as it says in the scriptures

   

Matthew 5: 48

'You must therefore be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.'
 
  

                R. Come to me God and possess my Soul

                Presence

                Knowing God's presence in us. 

                Song: In My Heart

 

                R. To exhaust oneself for the Church
                    and for souls —

                Being Selfless

   

Prayer for Union with Jesus

Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.

    I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.

    I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.

    When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.

-God's Blue Book, January 17, 1994

   

                R. Loving to give Christ what
                    He wants —

                Loving to give Him ourselves —

                This is Devotion to the Sacred Heat of Jesus!!

                Song: Your Presence Pervades My Soul

                R. We need to tell people how Jesus
                    loves His religious so much
                    and He wants religious in
                    love with Him —
                    Really loving Him —
                    exhausting themselves in
                    love of Jesus and souls —

                Wanting to be so one with Him —

                Holding on to unforgiveness is a
                    road block to the open
                    door of love

 

 

                R. Do you see the open door —
                    the door streaming in light
                    open, like the Heart I saw
                    December 17, 1991

   

December 17, 1991Picture of Jesus' Heart on fire.

Jesus: I am Jesus. I have spoken as never before, you will spread My love to all souls on this earth.

His Burning Heart

R. I was alone in All Saints Church after Mass and Communion, in front of the tabernacle, when I saw the Sacred Heart. It was red around the outside, then a layer of yellow and then the brightest light in the center. I felt heat and it looked like an open furnace.

    I thought about it all day and it instantly gave me peace and warmth in my heart. This is the purpose of these letters—to draw hearts to the ardent on-fire love of Jesus. I received the following message that day:

    "Open your heart to the fire of God's love. He is ablaze in your heart. He wants to dwell in you and love you and others through you. Love God, yourself and one another and experience the fire set aglow in your heart and experience the warmth of His love."

I Watched You  

Jesus:  Oh, how I watched you, child. I watched you as I gave you each little sign of My love. I watched you grow in your faith and trust in Me. I watched you suffer and stood so close you could have touched Me, but you didn't know that this suffering would be that which led you to My tender love for you.

    I watched you when you surrendered and turned your will over to Me and I watched you cry, knowing this was the most joyous day of your life. I watched you see visions of doors and knew you would want to go through those doors, but they were not the doors you thought, they were the doors I gave you for greater union with Me. I watched you, child, when you wrote down My first letter to you and I saw your confusion and joy, knowing what these letters would do to touch so many hearts.

    I watched you, child. I watched you when I showed you My Heart and you were so warmed by this Heart and so awed by its vision, but you didn't know what this vision would mean for many to draw their hearts to My burning love.

    I watched you surrender each time as you let go of each little thing, as you were dying to self. I watched you through this surrender grow closer to Me. I watched you grow in this deep love for Me, step by step. I watched our love grow as you gave more of yourself in prayer. I watched you, child, and I loved being ever closer to you.

    I watched you struggle in such trials that you thought tomorrow would never come, knowing that this trial was what would give you more freedom and love for Me. I watched you learn each lesson through hard tests and I was so close while you struggled, but did not remove the struggle, knowing you would not learn your lesson if I had.

    I watched you, child, through each joy and pain and I loved you silently, always with you, and you never knew how close I truly was to you.

Song: From the day you were born…

    From the day you were born, I watched you. Forever by your side, I guarded you, I loved you. I know the most secret desire of your heart far better than you yourself know. I know the Father's plan for you. I know the Father's love for you. I know the love poured on you from the Holy Spirit and how Mary is forever by your side.

    I watch you, child, constantly guarding you and your ways and you do not know the love I have for you. You do not know how My Heart burns for love of you. And, someday, My beautiful child, you will know what I have in store for you, My beloved.

    Come and be with Me. Grow in your love with Me. I never leave you, My beloved. Remember, I am forever watching you.

R. Some time between Ascension Thursday, May 21, 1998 and Pentecost, May 31, 1998.

I saw a vision of an open door, the light within it resembled the light of the vision of March 26, 1996 that can be found in the Apostles Manual (p. 34-36).

The open door was glistening with this reflective golden color mirror-like light. I cannot describe, as I could not describe concerning the 3 main visions, the first being March 26, 1996.

The closest light I can describe to this is the sun reflecting on the water at Tom's Farm but this too leaves an emptiness to its description.

There was a little white sheep at the bottom of the open, glistening door and the little sheep hobbled over a small threshold and went in.

The door was rounded on the top, no corners, like a semi-circle on the top, and the wall surrounding this door was black. The light I describe was within this door and peered out to me in the vision.

I heard our Lord over and over again cry out during this period, "Come out of your tombs, dead, dead, dead, you are dead."

I heard the words similar to the message of May 21, 1998.

I was walled in on all sides – BARS – a prison of my own making. I turned and there was a wall missing and I gaily walked into the free night and the sun followed me as I walked.

I hear Jesus speak: "I am the gateway that leads to freedom."

I know the sea of glass from the vision of March 26, 1996. I know the open door from the vision.

I know the Power, I know the Intimate Burning Heart of Jesus in the Mass.

HE FEEDS THE STARVED SOUL

Written after Communion:

R. There is a constant ache in my heart from the sufferings Mary has allowed me to experience. I desire, in my whole being, to help save souls. My every action is being used for this. An imperfect instrument I am, but I ask Him to use me and give myself entirely to this cause to help others to get to heaven and know His love.

I have had such a day, longing for Him and wanting the deepest union with Him, craving His presence in the Blessed Sacrament, begging to be fed by His adorable love. Nothing can satisfy me but His deep, burning love. I long and thirst for Him with a hungry heart.

The world is hungry for the love of our Savior. He feeds the starved souls and makes them whole. In Him, we are nourished with His words and His very own Body and Blood.

I love the Eucharist. I adore Him in the Eucharist. I hunger after Him.

CHILDREN NEED TO KNOW
HOW MUCH JESUS LOVES THEM

R. Mary wants children to consecrate their hearts every day to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Children need to know how much Jesus loves them.

end of excerpt

   

                R. Mary wants children to consecrate
                    their hearts every day to the
                    Sacred Heart of Jesus and the
                    Immaculate Heart of Mary

 

        Given October 17, 2003

                Jesus:  My child,

                                The devil wants you to feel distant.

                                Tell yourself how much I love you.

                                Recall all the times I give you special

                                    signs of My love.

                                Do not be afraid.

                                Feel this deep connection I have with you.

                                Go to the place, the depth of My Heart

                                    and let go.

                                There experience My peace and My love

                                    and let go.

                                Meditate on mysteries of God.

                                Let go of distractions.

                                Oh child, I love you so very much.

                                Focus on My love for you.

                                I am God and I love you so much.

                                I give you Myself in the Eucharist.

                                I give you these writings of my love —

                                    personal love letters to help you —

                                Your life may seem like valleys and hills,

                                    but in it all you never lose sight

                                    of how deep My love is for you.

                                My people I give you the rosary

                                    videos and DVD's to meditate on

                                    My deep love for you.

                                These are tremendous aids for all

                                    My people in English and

                                    Spanish.

                                Peace My child —

                                Let go into My embrace —

                                Experience the white heat of My love —

                                I am your Divine God and I love you —

                                Do not be afraid

                                Sing:  Be Not Afraid

                                Sing:  Peace is Flowing like a River

                            My people come on December 17, 2003 to the

                                site in Florida.

                            I am a God of justice.

                            I love you so very much.

                            I want you to be kind and loving and

                                 work in love.

                            Pray for purity in your heart.

                            Say "Lord Jesus, you refresh me,

                                        I am a tired little child today,

                                        but today especially I want to

                                        please You more than ever

                                        and rely on Your Might."

                                    Oh little one, I am here with you in

                                        all your trials, Come before the

                                        Blessed Sacrament, even if you

                                        feel distracted.

                                    I love you so much.

                            Keep the focus on Me and My Might.

                            Don't worry if you feel distracted —

                                keep trying to quiet your mind

                                for a deep connection and prayer.

                            Focus on My love.

                            I am the Almighty God and I love you with

                                an unquenchable love.

                            LOVE, LOVE, LOVE —

                            I am LOVE —

                            You go to the source of love —

                            I am God and I love you so much —

  

                             Feel deep connection —

                                focus on My Might —

                                in this time — give yourself completely

                                    to Me — empting yourself —

                                see yourself as a little baby in

                                    the arms of Mary

                                pray the Our Father — deeply pray

                                    for grace from the Father to

                                    love Him —

                            Ask the Holy Spirit to fill you — to fill

                                you with the fire of God's love —

                            Feel a freeness in your heart

                            Remember the days of winter and

                                think of a long winter day, it

                                snows all day and into the night,

                                your streets are filled with snow

                                and you can't even get to Church,

                                the trees are bowing low with

                                the weight of the fallen snow —

                                beautiful pines, bending so low

                                with the weight of snowflakes

                                piled high and higher —

                            ice cycles hang from your gutters —

                                there is a little set of footprints

                                across your lawn and you wonder how

                                did they walk in that deep snow —

                                you feel the coldness press on the windows

                                but there is a feeling of peace that you

                                now have time to stop and just be

                                because your schedules have been

                                cleared —

                            The depth of the snow outside keeps

                                you from traveling.

                            At long last a snow plow comes

                                down your street.

                            Where you were once stuck in a house

                                under deep snow now you could

                                move about and you do and

                                the beauty of this winter-wonderland

                                unfolds as you drive away. The highways

                                are clear and people move about freely

                                like there wasn't a storm at all,

                                but you were isolated in your little

                                snowed in house a while, long

                                enough to reflect and make a little

                                time to sit with your God.

                            Your soul seems refreshed now, you

                                see white, clean snow hang less

                                heavy on the pine-trees now

                                and your immobility has turned

                                to mobility.

                            Your mind is a wonder —

                            Created by God —

                            but you can control your thoughts —

                            You can choose periods of peace —

                            You must have these periods of peace

                                with Me to have peace in your

                                soul.

                            Real peace is found in Me.

                            My Mother appeared on a busy corner

                                in a sunny state where it

                                doesn't snow.

                            She appears the lady clothed with the

                                sun on the heel of the foot.

                            She appears in the midst of sirens,

                                and cars, fumes from the exhaust,

                                dug up grounds and then there is

                                the garden —

                                the garden of My love —

                                I sweat Blood in the garden for

                                    your sins —

                            I sweat My Blood and it fell to the ground —

                            I sweat Blood in the garden

                            My Apostles slept —

                            I saw before Me, all the sins, of all the

                                people for all time and I gave

                                Myself for your sins.

                            I saw you in the garden and I knew

                                your name. Your name is engraved

                                in My Heart that was pierced with

                                a lance for your sins.

                            Oh listen to Me little ones feeling

                                snowed under. I give you a garden

                                in Florida, I clear the roads like

                                a giant snow plow, in minutes

                                you are free to move about.

                                Some let satan pile mud outside their

                            door and they never get to the road that

                            is free and moving.

                                Are you stuck in the mud because

                            you won't ever take time to be alone

                            with Me?

                                Oh God loves you with an unquenchable

                            love.

                                Today focus on My love.

                                Meditate on My Mysteries.

                                Keep your rosaries handy.

                                Pray the 9 Hail Mary Novena when

                                    you are perplexed and needing

                                    help.

                                Pray don't give into satan to talk

                            about things and think about things that

                            aren't true.

                                Count your blessings, focus on your gifts.

                            So many things are so wonderful in your

                            lives and then you have "one worry" and

                            that is what you focus on and talk about.

                                You have 100s of thoughts all day —

                                    so much works out and yet the

                                    person will focus on one sordid

                                    detail many days and they aren't

                                    even sure of their one concern if

                                    it will happen.

                            When you trust in Me —

                                You are filled with light —

                                Pray to the Holy Spirit.

                            Read the Blue Book —

                                Letters of My love —  

                                "teachings to lift you up"     

                            You are so fixed, sometimes, on many

                                negative things, you open your

                                mouth and more negative

                                thoughts tumble out.

                            Stay focused on My love —

                            Stay focused on your blessings —

                            See how things are working out,

                                many times, instead of focusing

                                on how they "may" not work out

                                and thinking all those thoughts of what

                                could go wrong and dwelling on negative

                                things.

                            This is not telling you to ignore real

                                problems —

                                in the course of a day many just

                                    give into habitual negative thinking.

                            Along with all your efforts to think

                                positively you should get

                                proper rest and eat proper

                                food.

                            Sometimes you may receive help to

                                go on lesser sleep, but as a

                                whole you cannot skip every

                                day's rest and eat "junk

                                food" all day.

                            Take care of your mind.

                            Feed it with positive thoughts.

   

                            An old man ate and ate "junk food"

                                He was crabby, no one wanted to get

                                    near him, soon he got several

                                    diseases and he died.

                            Why would you feed your mind

                                "junk" thoughts?

                            You want your spirit vibrant

                                with life.

                            Two men looked out prison bars —

                                one saw grass and mud —

                                the other saw stars.

                            I give you so many gifts and take

                                care of you like a doting lover

                                then I watch you complain with

                                your negative thinking — after I

                                give you all these gifts.

                            It wounds My Heart when I am so

                                good to you and you complain

                                untruthfully about others

                                who are really helping you.

                            You are ungrateful and I want the

                                truth.

  

  

       

Excerpt from September 5, 1999 message

Messenger: On September 5, 1995, I did a rosary before the Sorrowful Mother statue at a Shepherds of Christ meeting there (at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center). I was on retreat and felt immensely connected to God. My daughter video taped it.

On the Feast of the Sorrowful Mother, I was told to watch the video. A mist went over Mary. An audio tape is available concerning this information and a video tape of the mist. The audio tape is October 1, 1995, Love Songs and Messages. The video is A Mist Around Mary.

I sang, I Love You Jesus. I talked about the Trinity. The mist began in the lower right corner and went over Mary and ended there with I Love You Jesus.

I wish a copy of the words of the rosary be printed here while the mist was covering Mary. They are very important to Mary and our Lord.


September 5, 1995

Song: Oh burning Heart, Oh Love divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the Host, I know You're here to love and care for me.

  1. Messenger: Be with Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, kneel beside Him, see the rocks, see His brown hair and His beautiful face. This is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Be there and feel His presence and as you feel His presence, realize the presence of the Almighty God within your hearts: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. At this moment you are surrounded by Their divine love and your heart is burning within you as you kneel beside the Almighty God.

  2. We do not realize how close He truly is to us, that He wants to be one with us, through Him, with Him, and in Him, that He calls us to this union, to this oneness with Him. As we meditate on the mysteries of this rosary, let us unite in this oneness with the Almighty God Who cries from every tabernacle in this world - cries out deep cries of His burning love and they fall on deaf ears - Who comes to us and gives us Himself in the Holy Eucharist and is ignored and forgotten and treated with such indifference.

  3. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, Who waits in all the tabernacles of the world in the Sacrament of greatest love, waiting a prisoner for His beloved souls to come and to be with Him. As present as the day that He knelt in the garden, in His Divinity and His Humanity, He waits in the tabernacle and we kneel before Him in front of the tabernacle, as we imagine that we knelt next to Him in the garden. This is the love that the Almighty God has for us. He remains with us this day and is forgotten and ignored. He calls out to His beloved souls, "Come to Me, you are blind and you are deaf, you do not know the great gifts that you are given. I am waiting and waiting for you to come. Come to Me, My beloved souls, I long and thirst to unite in deepest union with you."

    We search this barren desert for things to fill our starved souls, when nothing on the face of the earth will fill the starved soul but the love of God and He is waiting and longing and thirsting for us to come and to be with Him.

    Oh, beloved Jesus, truly present in the tabernacle, give us the grace to realize this great gift we are given, to cherish every single moment that we are in the presence of the Almighty God, to never take this for granted, to thank You endlessly for the great gift You have given to us, the gift of Yourself, that You are truly present, the gift that You give us in the Holy Eucharist, and Your Heart was in such anguish in the garden, your Heart of deepest love for all the souls that would treat You with such indifference and negligence. Your Heart of burning love is so often ignored and forgotten. My precious One, let me help make reparation to Your adorable Heart for all that you suffered in the garden for Your beloved souls who have forgotten You.

Song: Oh burning Heart, Oh Love divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the Host, I know You're here to love and care for me.

                Given November 25, 1999

Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.


R. At Mass today Father said, "Eucharist means thanksgiving."

The Mass is :

This royal banquet. God gives us Himself in the Eucharist.
This is what we must be most thankful for.
The gift of God with us in the Holy Eucharist.

   

Psalm 116:12-19

Thanksgiving

What return can I make to Yahweh
  for his generosity to me?
I shall take up the cup of salvation
  and call on the name of Yahweh.

I shall fulfil my vows to Yahweh,
  witnessed by all his people.

Costly in Yahweh's sight
  is the death of his faithful.

I beg you, Yahweh! I am your servant,
I am your servant and my mother was your servant;
  you have undone my fetters.
I shall offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving
  and call on the name of Yahweh.

I shall fulfil my vows to Yahweh,
  witnessed by all his people,
in the courts of the house of Yahweh,
  in your very heart, Jerusalem.

   

R. We tell Him we are the servants.
      We tell Him we are the children of the handmaid Mary.
      We say, "You have loosed my bonds."

The Psalm Response today was:

    "Our blessing cup is a Communion with the Blood of Christ."

This Christ is our Beloved.

Oh God, you have loosed my bonds.

Oh God, you have fed me with the finest wheat.

Oh my God, I am only satisfied with Thee.

Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

In the desert, He rained Manna from heaven.

His sufferings are blessings.

He gives warnings to lead us to greater life.

Our goal must be to be possessed by God.

Today God remains with us in His Divinity and Humanity and He gives us Himself in the Eucharist. He is truly present. He comes to us.

  

A Song from Jesus

Refrain:

I come to you with greatest love,
I am your loving Savior.
I am your God, I died for you,
I come to you this day.

 

I Love You Jesus

Verse 1

Oh Burning Heart, Oh Love divine,
how sweet You are to me.
I see the host, I know you're here
to love and care for me.

Verse 2

I cannot say, There are not words

I love You so, I scarce can breathe
when You come into me.

A Message from Jesus on Thanksgiving

November 25, 1994

Let the Holy Spirit Mold You into My Image

Jesus: I am Jesus, your beloved Savior. The Father loves you so much, My dear little ones, that He gave His only Son that you might have life and have it abundantly. I loved you, My precious ones. I was born a mere Human. I gave Myself, My Body and Blood for love of you. My Mother suffered by My side. She loves you with the most tender love. The Holy Spirit loves you with such love. He is forever ready to mold you more deeply into My image and lead you to greater love with the Father!

Oh, little loved ones, do you not see the love I pour out to you? I remain with you this very day in the Eucharist, no less present than the day I was carried in Mary's womb, no less present than the day I walked this earth. I remain with you, I come to you and give you Myself, I give you My Life in My Divinity and Humanity. I come into your body. This is the Sacrament of My greatest love - I give Myself to you in the Eucharist.

Oh, sweet ones, My Heart is open and on fire. See My Heart totally open and ablaze for love of you. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the tenderest of all hearts I long and thirst for your love. I wait for you, My little ones, to come and receive Me in the Eucharist. I sit endless hours waiting for the souls I love to come and be with Me in front of the tabernacle.

My soul thirsts for the love of souls. I pour out My most tender love to you in the Eucharist. I long, I wait, I yearn for your love, My precious sweet ones. Oh, you do not know how My Heart suffered during My Passion for the souls that would reject Me and treat Me so coldly. The agonies I endured to love so much and be forgotten by so many souls I love so dearly!

Oh, I cry out with a loud voice so that you will listen to My pleading. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God, I am on fire for love of you this day. As your body requires nourishment, your souls are fed by Me. I am the Bread of Life, he who comes to Me will never be hungry. He who believes in Me will never thirst. I give you My very flesh to nourish you. I give you My very Blood. I give you, My dear ones, My very self.

R. What can you get on this earth that can compare to God, truly present and dwelling with you? How much do you comprehend that God comes to you and enters your body in the Sacrament of the Eucharist? Do you realize what transpires at Mass? Bread and wine are changed into the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, through the hands of His specially anointed priest. Do you cry to realize what is happening at Mass? God is truly present. Jesus is no less present than the day He hung on the cross, dying for love of you.

Jesus: I would die this day for you, My dear ones. I love, I love, I love. I am Love. You look, you wander, you roam.

         
  

                November 24, 2012 continues

                R. We see Christ's Heart
                pierced on the cross out
                of love for us —

                Suffering for us - His beloved soul —
                Love for us —
                So fine we cannot ever fathom —

                Through the pierced Heart of Christ
                the Church is born —
                Blood and water came forth from His pierced Heart —
                Water for Baptism
                Blood for the Eucharist
 
 

Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.

July 13, 1917

    But in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world.          Our Lady of Fatima's Peace Plan from Heaven  (Rockford: TAN Books and Publishers, Inc., 1983).

 

                R. Here was a great vision given to me before
                    the Blessed Sacrament.

 

March 26, 1996

Very carefully discerned by Fr. Carter

R. I came to All Saints Church before a beautiful Monstrance of gold that contained Our beloved Savior. He was adorned in light, the altar beneath shone with the brightest light and the cross behind was entirely silhouetted with the same celestial light. I was overwhelmed with the presence of God and cried deeply from the awe of it all.

    To be so aware of the Almighty God truly present in His splendor and glory—to know the presence of God, to see the glistening of the gold and the light and reflection of the cross behind Him—my beauteous love—words do not exist to describe the rapture of a heavenly embrace! I cry because of the immense awe within my being to know Him. God truly present in His majesty and glory and oh, God, I behold the presence of a heavenly court. You opened wide the heavens and lifted up the veil and I knew You in Your splendor and glory. I behold God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

    "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life." He is the Almighty God. He shows us the celestial lights with which He will light this earth. Many must surrender their hearts to His Heart and Mary's heart. It is in surrendering, the Spirit will move in the hearts of men and the light of God will shine on the darkened earth. Not with a light that you comprehend, but a light that is divinely granted—a light beyond all lights, a vision beyond all visions. It takes the surrender of minds and hearts to God. The Spirit cannot move in us when we are in control. Surrender and give Him our heart and He will make us fishers of men.

    We are His apostles in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. He is sending us out into the world to light the hearts with His burning love. We are chosen by Him and He is giving us abundant graces to grow in our union with Him. He will light this world with His burning love. Our hearts must be open. We must surrender and let go and reach beyond the senses, reach with our hearts. Pray for faith, pray for the vision of God.

Note:  I cried all through this writing, having the presence of God and being in great ecstasy to behold Him. May God touch your heart and may His Spirit move within you. May you be filled with the grace of God to surrender and let Him accomplish a great work within you.

    And I was filled on high with His miraculous light and He reached down and spoke within me. I was filled as never before and knew the presence of God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Note:  As I finished, the bells at All Saints Church rang at 9:00 A.M. As I began to experience the immense splendor, the bells of 8:00 rang. Words do not express anything that I saw or experienced or know from this ecstasy. This was the greatest and the first of three visions, which defined clearly to me our role in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Jesus defines clearly the role of Fr. Carter in this great mission given to him by the Father.

For Fr. Carter from Jesus:

Jesus:  To him who has eyes to see, they will see - not with earthly vision, but with the eyes of faith, and to him who has ears to hear, he will hear with the fluttering of the Spirit moving within him.

    I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I am the Almighty God. I say to the rocks to fall and they fall and to the grass, grow, and it grows, and to the sun, shine, and it shines. I give to you My love in these letters. Filled with My love, you will conquer this earth, not with weapons and powder or force, but with fires of My love. The fire will wipe out the hatred in the cold hearts and the earth will be covered with My celestial light. The earth will rock and I will appear in the heavens adorned in power and glory and the contrite hearts will be saved. I came to separate the sheep from the goats, the light from the darkness. I come and no one pays Me heed.

    To you, My beloved son, Father Carter, I have sent you on a mission to spread this fire that will cover this earth. The hearts of men will turn from their sick and desolate ways to hearts gentle as a little lamb.

    There will be one flock and one Shepherd and My staff will rule over all. Hearts consecrated to Our Hearts will lead the light across the earth. This light will be a light of intense brightness, brighter and hotter than any light from a flame. It will be the fire of God's love. The Spirit will move in the hearts of all consecrated to My Heart, and you will know how fire truly spreads, for the love of God is a fire. It is vibrant. It is encompassing. It is smoldering, burning deep within and speedily spreading on the outside. No fire on this earth can ever describe the burning embers that burn from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. No fire burns like the fires coming from My Heart and hearts filled with the love from the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

    I have written your name, Fr. Carter, in My Heart, never ever to be blotted out and this earth will be renewed with the fire of God's love through you. You are My beloved priest-son, forever, according to the order of Melchizedek. Most holy and most sacred are your hands that consecrate the Host and write My precious newsletter for My beloved priest-sons. You are never unguarded. You are held within the deepest chamber of My Heart, and you will spread My love to the priest-sons of this earth.

    I am Jesus. You will spread My love to all souls on this earth. I love you with the tenderest burning love. I am Jesus, your beloved Savior.

end of March 26, 1996

   

  

                R. Also I had 2 more big visions
                    one on Holy Saturday

   

April 6, 1996
Holy Saturday

R.  This is what I see when I see a vision. The rocks in the grotto Mary has appeared in glisten and they are sparkling. LINES are not defined, instead they are adorned in light. Saturday (April 6, 1996, Holy Saturday) I saw the whole wall adorned in the brightest light, St. Joseph was surrounded in this thick light, like comes from a fire, like a celestial mirror. I don't know how to describe it, it is as a mirror with light in it, but no light like our human eyes have seen. I looked at St. Joseph and he was pushing the Child Jesus out at us, the Baby coming out glistening in light. The statue of the resurrected Lord was alive. All the flowers were topped with this light. This is how it was and is now at All Saints Church. It is as if heaven has poured its light on the earth and it tops the flowers. All distinct lines are gone. In their place is light. So all I look at has a splendor.

 

 

 

 

April 9, 1996

R. I went to All Saints Church - saw with eyes unveiled- such an aura of celestial light. I went to Communion, had the presence of God, wanted to cry so hard from the awe of it all. I was not feeling good and He wrapped me as only He can do in His heavenly embrace. My soul sang out and the vision began. My eyes now are still seeing with this effect. He, as it were, lifts up the hard, defined lines and I see with a celestial aura. This is what I see when I see a vision....

    After Communion I had this immense presence of God. I knew a vision was coming. My vision gets a certain way. The distinct lines I see before me begin to disappear and are smudged with light.

    Then I saw again the celestial lights of heaven. It was as though light was spilled from heaven and landed on the flowers and the corners of everything. The Eucharist took on an immense warmth and I knew God truly present in this room.

    I saw with eyes unveiled in my soul and in the room. The room had a celestial aura, it no longer looked defined and clear. It was bathed in a gentle, celestial film and all I saw I wanted to tell to those around me. But I was so caught in His embrace that my mouth did not want to move.

    Grace is being spilled on the earth. I have seen this celestial light come upon the altar of sacrifice, the monstrance and the cross. The vision on March 26 (1996) I will never forget as long as I live. The light is so thick and so intense as if the heavens open in these cracks of light and there is a depth far beyond that which any mind can envision.

    The sky opened up and it rained down its grace. It opens when hearts are one in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

end of April 9, 1996 writing

  



             
R. Jesus wants us to reach the souls —
                He has written to me for 21 years
                    and given me visions of His
                    love of Souls —

                Jesus and Mary appeared in
                    Clearwater

 

   


 
               
R. Jesus has called us to reach the souls —
                Jesus wants to be honored under
                    the symbol of His Heart —

                Jesus gave these promises to St. Margaret Mary

 


 

Promises of Our Lord to those devoted to His Sacred Heart: 

    1. I will give them all the graces necessary in their state of life.
    2. I will establish peace in their homes.

    3. I will comfort them in all their afflictions.
    4. I will be their refuge during life and above all in death.
    5. I will bestow a large blessing on all their undertakings.
    6. Sinners shall find in My Heart the source and the infinite ocean of mercy.
    7. Tepid souls shall grow fervent.
    8. Fervent souls shall quickly mount to high perfection.
    9. I will bless every place where a picture of My Heart shall be set up and honored.
    10. I will give to priests the gift of touching the most hardened hearts.
    11. Those who promote this devotion shall have their names written in My Heart, never to be blotted out.
    12. I promise you in the excessive mercy of My Heart that My all-powerful love will grant to all those who communicate on the
        first Friday in nine consecutive months the grace of final penitence; they shall not die in My disgrace nor without receiving
        their sacraments; My divine Heart shall be their safe refuge in this last moment.

   

                R. He outpours His blessings and graces
                    when we honor His Sacred Heart

                When we have this love of Jesus
                    it helps us to fight satan —

                Jesus gave me this song
                    after Mass before the
                    Exposed Eucharist —

                He was clear —

                He wants us to sing it to Him —

                Song: I Love You Jesus

 

17 Years Ago

                R. From the Mass Book and Blue Book 9

 

December 18, 1995

IN THE DEEPEST RECESSES OF HIS HEART

    The place Jesus took me was into the deepest recesses of His Heart. I was enveloped in His burning love. It was a red room with heat and an intense glow. I was swept away in this embrace, and I only existed in Him. The power of the Almighty God enveloped me, and I only existed in Him. There was no fear, for I was existent in this Almighty Being. My heart was wrapped in the eternal embrace of this Supreme Being. The security, the power I know was His deep presence in which I existed.

    I knew the room was red and warm. I knew His immenseness, but I felt my own completeness in Him. I did not feel little, as a speck, but elevated and empowered for I existed then in Him in a most special way.

    I was overtaken by the love of God. The fire of the Holy Spirit filled me. I was absorbed by the love of the Father, and I existed IN Him and in the deepest recesses of the Heart of Jesus. Our heaven on earth is these inner chambers of His magnificent Heart - the Heart of the Almighty God, with all the power, with omnipotence, with the fire of the love of God. He took me to the deepest chamber of this fiery Heart, and in that moment, I touched eternity, for I knew what it was to be enveloped in the deep furnace of His love. I now want to exist in this chamber of His Heart, swept away in His burning love, absorbed in my every cell with His love.

    We do not understand the fire of His love. We do not understand what it is to be absorbed by love itself. He took me to the inner, deepest chamber of His Heart, and I felt the heat and knew the presence of love itself, and there was no fear, only a feeling of completeness, omnipotence, all-embracing, penetrating love - a power indescribable in words, a saturation of my being in the presence of God, and I was as I was created to be - living in Him!

    This is how I will forever live my life, saturated with His divine life and love deep within this inner chamber of His burning Heart, living in Him as He possesses my being, and I operate with His power in me.

    Little creatures though we are, we are His, His power, His life, flowing through us. In Him, we are as the Father intended: one in Him, each one of us, dwelling in this fiery furnace of His love. With our fears quieted and our hearts empowered by His life, we live forever in Him - in the Heart of Jesus.

    Let no man separate what God has joined together. I am wed in the deepest love with my beloved Spouse, wed to the Heart of Jesus. As I am, I am one in Him. I live and I breathe in Him. He, Who is love, He Who is our all, He Who is mighty and without limits, He Who is, He Who is God and as I live, He lives in me in this world.

    I am wed to Him, and I shall not fear for He is God - one, complete, loving, God. Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in Thee. As I live, I live in Your most adorable Heart, the furnace of God's love!

Guiding Light — Reflect on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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 — Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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

$ 10.00  plus postage

Priestly Newsletter — 2000 #1 — CD. — Christ is Our Strength — Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our—selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10

His voice is so powerful as he read each Newsletter from his heart and soul. "Every man has his own share in the redemption. Each one is also called to share in that suffering through which the redemption was accomplished. He is called to share in that suffering through which all human suffering has also been redeemed. In bringing about the redemption through suffering, Christ has also raised human suffering to the level of the redemption. Thus each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ..." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
