Scripture selection is Day 6 Period 2.
The Novena Rosary Mystery
for November 7th is Glorious.

                

The Nursing Home #3 video is now on the internet.

It is so beautiful and the sound is excellent!

           


  

Messenger:         Dear Father,

                                I want to write about all the good things
                            that happened yesterday. I arrived in 
                            Florida in good time and everything went
                            really well. Emily picked me up and we ate
                            a good breakfast. Ed gave us the piano and
                            it sounded so beautiful. The Mass was wonderful.
                            We made the crucifix video and Mary was so
                            gold. I could not even believe how beautiful
                            she looked. She was gold through the whole
                            video of the crucifix story and the nursing
                            home video. I never saw the window
                            like that. Someone said she looked like
                            she was on fire.

                                Mary really changes on the window. I 
                            saw Jesus on the building in the two
                            bottom corners the whole time.

                                Everybody in Florida seemed very
                            happy (servants, handmaids and apostles).
                            They worked really hard to get everything
                            ready for the 5th. They really work together
                            in love. They help each other, they do what
                            needs to be done and they are so loving.
                            It was wonderful to be there and around
                            them.
                                God is so good to us. I have the beauty of 
                            the images in my heart and mind.
                                The window was beautiful the whole
                            time and all through the rosary, Mary
                            had that little white cap on her head.
                                Last night after the rosary Mary was
                            so white. She seemed entirely white,
                            someone said, like a bride.

                                Before the 6:20 prayers there were gold 
                            and rainbow colored images. Very vivid.
                            I am anxious to see what we get back
                            because the images were so varied, so
                            outstandingly beautiful.

                                At the end of the rosary, I was so happy
                            to be sitting there under this beautiful
                            site. It was just awesome the whole
                            night and the late afternoon about
                            4:00. The window was awesome.
                                When I get the pictures back I will
                            put on the Internet my letter to You, Father,
                            and the pictures.
                                Today before I left the image was so
                            much different.
                                I pray for the developing of these pictures.

                            I want to be so united to You, now, and talk
                                to You.
                            I want to thank You for all the gifts we 
                                received yesterday.
                            The rosary was beautiful, I cannot wait
                                to put out the story of the crucifix
                                video and that particular nursing
                                home video.
                            The window was so awesome. I never saw
                                it, like it was during the videos.
                             I didn't get to take still picture shots (too many)
                                in the late afternoon because we were filming
                                the videos and I was the narrator. I took a few.
                                Maybe we can get some pictures out of the videos.

                            I sang the Ave Maria and played it right
                                behind Mary's face on the piano.
                                It sounded so beautiful and I felt
                                    Mary wanted this song sung to her.
                                    It was very beautiful.
                            We sang very many Mary songs yesterday. We
                                were hooked up to about eight states.
                                When I played another Ave Maria song,
                                last night during the prayer service,
                                I felt I could hear them all singing
                              


                                            

                                        Ave Maria

                          Refrain

                                Ave Maria
                                Gratia Ple Na
                                Dominus Tecum
                                Be Ne Dicta Tu

                          Verses

                                As we kneel before you
                                As we bow our heads in prayer
                                take our hearts, make them yours
                                and fill us with your love.

                                All we have we give you
                                Every dream and wish is yours
                                Mother of Christ, Mother of ours
                                Present them to your Son

                                As we kneel before you
                                As we see your smiling face
                                Every thought, every word
                                Is lost in your embrace

Messenger:        It is just an awesome experience to be there
                                at the Virgin Mary building and pray like
                                that on the 5th under the awesome site.

                            I feel so gifted and I feel God's presence with
                                us in a special way as we sing and pray.
                                The images change and are so beautiful.

                            Oh God, we talk of so many senseless things
                                and get caught up in things that make us
                                so miserable.

                            I like writing to you Father every day, going over
                                all the blessings I received. Where I would
                                keep focusing on negative things just out
                                of habit, I see the gifts, the beautiful
                                gifts You have given me and I am
                                so happy and thankful.

                            I am thankful Father for the gift of Mary and Jesus
                                appearing on the building. I am grateful
                                for the Shepherds of Christ Movement 
                                and all the help You have sent to us. 

                            I am thankful for the beautiful sky and the
                                warm sunny day and the beauty of a
                                star studded night.

Messenger:        I must say that two people looked out a
                                window, one saw stars another
                                saw mud.

                            Father, I pray more and more people write
                                to You and thank You for Your gifts.

                            Father, please give us grace to be
                                thankful and happy. Help us to be
                                happy for all the gifts You give us.

                            Today is a new day, like a mystery unfolding.
                                We can not imagine the opportunities we
                                may have today to love, to serve God, 
                                to interact with others.

                            Life is exciting.
                            It is up to us to choose——
                                    do we want the balcony
                                    or do we want the dirt.
                           


 

    Excerpt from June 16, 2000 message

Messenger: On Pentecost, May 31, 1998, I had 3 visions.

I saw the dirt moving in little granules and a balcony. It was make clear to me we can focus on the dirt or the balcony.

Messenger:        Dear Father, I love You, Rita -

                            Dear Holy Spirit fill me with the fire
                                of God's love. Help me to operate
                                in love and not give into negative
                                thinking.
                                Holy Spirit please enlighten us,
                                    fill our hearts with the
                                    fire of God's love.

                                Help us to see the truth.

                            Dear Holy Spirit we want light to
                                know the truth, we want 
                                fearlessness to do what God
                                asks us to do. We want grace
                                to be docile, sensitive to His
                                touch and we want the virtues
                                of humility and patience and 
                                love.

                            We want to not be focused on the
                                negative things, but the positive things
                                loving God and all others.

                            Dear Holy Spirit set our hearts on
                                fire with the fire of God's love.

                            My dear Jesus,
                                Thank You for being my beloved spouse,
                                  the bridegroom of my soul.

                                We watched the Mass video last night and
                                    all the places were connected.

                                 I felt so close to You again at the consecration
                                    of the Mass.

                                I want to focus on that moment of consecration
                                    during the Mass and give myself to You.

Jesus speaks:     My dear daughter,
                                The rosary given in Florida last night
                                    and the beauty you experienced 
                                    were a great gift from your God.

                                Oh that the people of the world would
                                    know how present We are to them.
                                I am treated with such coldness by
                                    the people I love so much.
                                Tell them how much I love them.
                                Tell them how they are yearning for 
                                    My love.

Jesus speaks:     Why do you act as you do?

                            God sends gifts to you.
                            You ignore the gifts you are given.

                            I long for My beloved ones to come 
                                to Me in the Eucharist.

                            I long for them to talk to Me and tell
                                Me of their love.

                            God is so present to you.

                            You long for this love and yet
                                you close your hearts many
                                times and keep Me so far
                                from you.

                            I like you to make spiritual
                                communions all through
                                the day.

                            I want a personal relationship with
                                you.

                            I say to My ones with cold hearts,
                                Do you believe?

                            Do you act like you believe
                                in God? You do not even take 
                                time to talk to Me.

                            When you look at the beauty of the
                                sky, the beauty of the water,
                                the gifts of the sea, you
                                should think of the Creator.

Jesus speaks:      Look at all the talents one person
                                has.
                            Do you thank God for the gifts
                                given to you.
                            Do you take credit for the God
                                given talents given to you.
                            Do you realize I want you to
                                use your gifts.
                            Satan can tempt someone 
                                to waste so much
                                time.

                            Why do you give into him.

                            Why are you so glum when you are
                                so richly blessed.

                            Time on this earth is so short for
                                you and you waste your days
                                fretting, fuming and giving
                                into the tactics of satan.

                            Think of each day as a bouquet
                                of flowers you will place
                                at the throne of the Father.

                            Every day is a page in the book
                                you write about your life.

                                Why do you record so many
                                    days with a foul odor.

                            Writing good things that happened,
                                to your Father, will help you
                                to be cheerful and filled
                                with gratitude.

                            Your Father in heaven wants you to 
                                talk to him as a little child.

                            You can still be united deeply to your
                                loved ones who have passed on
                                to heaven.
                            You can pray for the souls in purgatory
                                and be united to them.

Relationship with Members of the Church

e) Relationship with Members of the Church

There is but one true Church of Christ. Yet this one Church has three different states of existence. There is the pilgrim Church, the Church of this world, composed of members who have received the grace of Christ and strive for its development. They have not yet obtained the goal of their efforts, as have the members of the heavenly Church, who enjoy God in eternal happiness. The Church suffering is an intermediate state of existence necessary for those who had not achieved the required purification as members of the pilgrim Church. Although there are these three phases of the Church’s existence, there is a profound union existing between all the members. All these members possess the same basic life of grace in Christ, and this common life establishes the most intimate bonds of love. In our preceding chapter, we discussed the pilgrim Church. Let us now consider the Church suffering and the heavenly Church.

The members of the Church suffering are those who have departed from this life in an incomplete state of Christian development. Their development is incomplete in the sense that grace has not fully taken possession of them, and, as a result, they are yet closed in upon themselves to a greater or lesser degree. They as yet cannot open themselves out in complete love to the Triune God in the beatific vision. They must undergo a further purification, a purification which could have been achieved upon earth with merit. Now the purification must be achieved with no merit attached. The pain of this purification is mixed with the certain expectation of achieving the vision of God. We can hasten the advent of this vision for this people by the offering of prayers and other good works. Scripture itself refers to our action on behalf of those in purgatory in Chapter 12 of the Second Book of Maccabees beginning with verse 38.

The members of the heavenly Church are those in whom the life of grace has taken full possession and has reached its completion in the life of glory. Faith now is unnecessary, as the light of glory gives the human intellect a new strength and capacity for seeing God face-to-face. While the Christian was a wayfarer, he received the imprint of the indwelling Trinity as he shared in God’s own life. Now in heaven that grace-life and possession of God reaches its completion—the absolute completion is not achieved, however, until the resurrection of the body. The divine persons give Themselves to the beatified in a profound union far surpassing that of the indwelling of the Trinity experienced here below.

This life of heaven is still the Christ-life, for just as we possess a share in Trinitarian life here below as mediated by Christ, and exercise this grace-life as structured by Him, so also in heaven is the mediation of Christ present. In the words of Rahner, "One always sees the Father through Jesus. Just as immediately as this, for the directness of the vision of God is not a denial of the mediatorship of Christ as man."14 And not only does the humanity of Christ unite the blessed to God, but also, in some way, to the whole of creation. This is merely a completion of what is begun here below, namely, the union with Christ in His humanity establishing the Christian in a special relationship with God, with other men, and with the whole of creation. We have a glimpse, therefore, of the fullness of life which members of the heavenly Church possess.

The heavenly Church, as St. Thomas says, is the true Church.15 The Church of this earth and the Church of purgatory are, each in its own way, reaching out in loving hope for the heavenly Jerusalem. Vatican II puts it very simply: "The Church, to which we are called in Christ Jesus, and in which we acquire sanctity through the grace of God, will attain her full perfection only in the glory of heaven."16

The members of the heavenly Church can help us in living our life of grace until we too share its fullness with them. Their power of intercession on our behalf is but another ramification of the communal aspect of Christianity. We are meant to help others grow in Christ. We, in turn, are intended by God to receive aid from others—yes, from members of the heavenly Church, as well as from those with whom we dwell here below.

Not only can we be aided by the saints’ intercession, but the example of the canonized saints can also be of great value to us. They have concretely proved that full holiness is possible. Such an inspiration is of real worth when we are tempted to think that Christian sanctity in its higher degrees is impossible of attainment. Moreover, the canonized saints, in their diversity, teach us that there are many authentic versions of Christian holiness. They can be innovators in showing us that there are numerous possibilities in assimilating the mystery of Christ, although the basic assimilation remains the same for all Christians of all times. In the opinion of Rahner this is one of the chief roles the canonized saints exert in the life of the Church.17

November 6, 2001 message continues

Jesus speaks:     During this month you can focus on
                                the souls in heaven and in 
                                purgatory.

                            You can use this time this month as
                                a preparation for the great feast
                                of Christ the King.

                            I am the King of heaven and earth.
                           I am Jesus, your God, the Almighty
                                God.
                           My Power is endless.

Messenger:        I remember in the beginning messages
                                I received in early 1991, Jesus said
                                we were attracted to God like steel to 
                                a magnet. Someone mentioned that
                                yesterday. The early messages You gave
                                me, Jesus, were always so helpful. When
                                I began receiving them my life began
                                to change drastically. I still suffered,
                                but the Personal relationship I have with
                                God began to grow deeper and deeper.

                            My friend Ellen reminded me yesterday how
                                in 1992 when I was in a Holy Spirit
                                prayer group with her, I didn't know
                                how to find the Books in the Bible.

                            I really didn't understand the Word of
                                God very good in the 80's.
                           I was an organist for a small Church and
                                I planned the music.
                           I really used my Planners because I
                                didn't understand the scriptures
                                many times.
                           After I began receiving Your messages,
                                Jesus, and sitting before the tabernacle
                                I began to know You so deeply.

                           I always had a somewhat personal relationship
                                with God since my mothers death at five, but
                                Jesus this relationship I have with You today
                                is so much more Personal and deeper.

                           I received a love for the Eucharist so deep
                                in the early nineties and then I could
                                see so much more clearly.
                                (I did go to daily Mass a big part of my
                                life)

                           Father Carter would say that was a grace
                           to love the Eucharist and I should thank
                                God for it and ask for that grace to continue.

                            He also told me that when God is going to
                                give a soul a deep relationship with Him,
                                that God can allow that person to
                                experience tremendous suffering.
                                He said it was "sort of like" purgatory
                                before heaven.

                            In order for souls to be with God in
                                heaven and have that deep union
                                they go through suffering in
                                purgatory to be purified.

                            God is all holy, the more pure we are
                                the more deeply we can unite
                                to God.

                            Jesus, please help me to write about this
                                journey for those who read this.
                                Help me to write as You so desire.

                            And so I went to daily Mass and spent
                                a lot of time before the tabernacle.
                                Jesus told me from the beginning
                                this is what He desired.

                                Once a person has spent a lot of time
                                    with Jesus before the tabernacle
                                    and gone to frequent Holy Communion and they
                                    stop, they can have deep restlessness
                                    in their soul many times.
                                    Some sick or elderly cannot go when
                                        they are old or unable. Sometimes
                                        they can't go to the tabernacle and daily Mass.
                                        If they stay united to Jesus they know 
                                        He will provide for their spiritual needs.
                                    But some people just become busy
                                        after spending lots of time with
                                        Jesus in the Eucharist and
                                        they can have a terrible hungering
                                        inside.

                                I experienced this if I missed just one
                                    day before the tabernacle because I
                                    didn't go that day. I missed it and didn't
                                    feel the same. Jesus addressed this
                                    with me in August of 1993 when He was
                                    teaching me how important it was I go to
                                    the tabernacle for an hour every day.

                                I quote from a message Blue Book I.

 


 

Picture of the Sacred Heart of JesusCome To My Tabernacle

August 28, 1993 Excerpt                                     God's Blue Book I Cover            

... Did you not cry and feel bad most of yesterday? This is your proof. You knew you wanted to be with Me here so badly you almost drove back out. You have to be alone with Me. In front of the tabernacle is best. I am the living God and I am in the tabernacle. You must be here or you will be so lost inside. Spend time with Me, My child. Nothing else matters. I am the one, true God and you shall not have other gods before Me...

Messenger:            The entire Blue Book message August 28, 1993
                                      can be found at the end of this message.

                                Well, as I went to the tabernacle and daily
                                    Mass and prayed very deeply to the
                                    Holy Spirit every day, my love union
                                    with Jesus developed more and more.

                                    I went through several Life in the
                                        Spirit Seminars and prayed fervently
                                        for His gifts.

                                    Jesus always said the Holy Spirit Novena
                                        should be put in the front of Blue
                                        Book I. This was a message we
                                        received to pray the Holy Spirit
                                        Novena as you used the Blue
                                        Books.

                                    Well, from the early Blue Book messages
                                        and the workings of the Holy
                                        Spirit in my heart and soul and
                                        the hour before the tabernacle
                                        daily and daily Mass, beginning very
                                        fervently in 1990 and continuing, I
                                        began to know My Beloved Jesus deeper
                                        and deeper in a more loving union,
                                        in a personal way then ever before.

                                The Mass began to come alive and I
                                    began to understand the scriptures
                                    more and more at Mass and I loved them
                                    so much.

                                When I was realizing in 1994 how
                                    truly I was not like the world
                                    and I went to Mass, I was
                                    so happy to hear the scriptures
                                    because they were saying what
                                    Jesus was saying to me.
                                    Then I would know that what I
                                    thought and said was the same truth
                                    in the scriptures.

                                The scriptures opened up more and more
                                    to me and on December 7, 1996, the
                                    anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor,
                                    at about the same time, I received
                                    this writing. It was First Saturday—

                                    It was called

                                Revelations on the Light (click on)

                                    This is from the Apostles' Manual.

                                It was two days after Jesus had appeared
                                    at the point of death on the cross at
                                    Holy Cross-Immaculata Church
                                    and ten days exactly before Mary
                                    appeared on the building in
                                    Clearwater

                                Fr. Carter said after that (the message of December 7,  
                                    1996) the scriptures were really opened  
                                    up to him as never before in his life.

                                Jesus was teaching me about Himself and
                                    I was so intimately united to Him
                                    from the time spent with Him
                                    before the tabernacle and daily
                                    communion and I knew Him
                                    most intimately, more than ever before
                                    in my life.

                                    To Know Jesus is to know Him in His
                                        Word.

                                    Then it seemed all the scripture
                                        made sense.

                                    From the beginning of the Bible to
                                        the end, from Genesis to Revelation

                                I understood so much about the Scriptures.

                                I knew so deeply Jesus in His Word and

                                    I loved the Scriptures. I knew the
                                    books in the Bible and could go through
                                    the Bible very quickly, I knew
                                    scripture verses and where things
                                    were.

                                It was light given from God, knowledge
                                    given from God. He outpoured
                                    His grace to me.
                                    He outpoured it abundantly. I felt I
                                    received this from going to
                                    the Eucharist and the time
                                    I spent with Him.

                                    I am not a scripture scholar, I
                                        know Him in His Word. His
                                        Word became so alive in My
                                        heart.
                                        He is the Word.
                                        How could I know Him so
                                            intimately and not know
                                            His Word.
                                        I know Him and love Him. He lives in me,
                                        not a learned way one might study
                                        the scripture like a book. I know Him
                                        in His Word in My heart.

                                I began to have ecstasies at Mass when
                                    the Word was read and I would
                                    cry so deeply from the knowledge
                                    imparted to me and the depth of
                                    knowledge I would have when it
                                    was read.

                                Where I would go into ecstasies before
                                    in the Second part of the Mass
                                    I now, for a long period of time,
                                    would experience these ecstasies
                                    during the beginning of the
                                    Mass.

                                Father Carter always said something
                                    at the beginning of Mass about
                                    insight into the mystery of
                                    His love and with a little phrase like
                                    that I would receive a grace and
                                    I understood it so deeply,
                                    with such insight I would cry.

                                We see so many things through a veil.

                                He can lift this veil and the depth of
                                    knowledge and insight is
                                    so satisfying for our souls.
                                    This happens when He pours out His
                                        grace.

                                    We are saturated with deeper and deeper
                                        grace when we go to the Eucharist.

                                    Father Carter would say this is the richest
                                        source of His grace because He
                                        is truly present in His Divinity
                                        and Humanity in the Eucharist.

                                    Someone praying at home may not
                                        receive as much grace as they
                                        can when they go before the
                                        Eucharist.    

                                    Jesus has told me how He abundantly
                                        outpours His grace to us when
                                        we receive Him in communion
                                        and when we sit before the
                                        tabernacle. That is His
                                        message in His letters of
                                        love in the Blue Books.

                                And now those deep insights I know I
                                    have received are implanted deep within
                                    my soul.

                                When experiences are given from Him, they
                                    remain as if chiseled within me.
                                    I do not forget dates or times or
                                    how I felt or what happened.

                                    Things that happened in a mystical
                                        experience can be as fresh in my
                                        mind as if it just happened.

                                I write from these experiences like this.

                                He told us in the Blue Book how He
                                    implants knowledge on our soul
                                    when we sit before the tabernacle
                                    and it isn't necessarily in
                                    words, it is just a deep knowing
                                    of God within us. It is intimacy—
                                    oneness, beyond words, in a
                                    union with our God.

                                Oh we reach for little senseless things to
                                    satisfy us when our souls were
                                    created for Him and only He can satisfy
                                    our hungry soul.

Jesus speaks:      Hunger, Hunger for the gifts I can give
                                    you and some do not even
                                    talk to Me. They are busy for
                                    their feeble lives and they do not
                                    have time for Me in their lives.

                            Oh I want to outpour My grace that
                                    they would see more clearly,
                                    but they do not come to Me
                                    before the tabernacle and in
                                    the Eucharist.

                            The message of the Blue Books are so
                                    important. They are My
                                    letters of love to My precious
                                    souls.
                                    I give Myself to them in the
                                    Eucharist and they ignore
                                    Me, they turn away.
                                    They hunger a barren desert and
                                        they seek useless things.

                            It is My love that will fill them.

                            They will be satisfied more and more from
                                coming to Me.

Messenger:         Oh my God I searched this barren land
                                and you opened up a door and it
                                wasn't the door I thought.

                               

  I prayed before the tabernacle and
        I saw doors.

  I thought He would give me greater   
        freedom and pleasure here
        in my life on earth and He
        opened the doors and inside
        was the real treasure,

        it was the door to His heart

   

                               

                            One vision had a chair in front of
                                the big brown door part a jar
                                (a very little opening)
                            Oh He removed that chair!!

                            It was my own blocks I had to overcome.

                            1)  surrender - turning my will and my life
                                                    over to God

                            2)  realizing the gifts, the graces outpoured
                                                when I received communion
                                                and sat before the tabernacle

                            3)  praying to the Holy Spirit, allowing
                                                Him to take possession of me

                            Then in 1997, God seemed as if He
                                deepened our relationship ever
                                more with the Father.

                                After Mary appeared in Clearwater December, 1996
                                    I received 2 strong messages
                                    from the Father.

                                My relationship with the Father
                                    deepened so much—
                                    and those in the core group
                                    of the Shepherds of Christ said the same
                                    thing—that their relationship
                                    with the Father deepened so much.

                            Hopefully if God gives me the grace

                                I will be able to account more about
                                my journey to deeper intimacy
                                with Jesus.

                            I want to end with 2 writings received
                                December 17, 1995 (one year before Mary
                                    appeared where I am talking
                                    about an ecstasy, on
                                    experience I had December 15, 1995)

                                and December 18, 1995,

                            Our mission is to help lead souls into
                                that deeper love union with
                                God where we live more fully
                                as the Brides of Christ.

                            I had the most wonderful experience on 
                                December 15, 1995.
                            I had deep insight into my relationship to the 
                                Trinity and Mary. 
                            This is what I am writing about in these two entries,
                                December 17, 1995 and December 18, 1995.

                                The writing was one year before
                                Mary appeared December 17, 1996 and the other writing was 
                                5 years before Fr. Carter died
                                December 18, 2000.

                                He was and still is a spiritual father
                                to the Shepherds of Christ Movement.

                            This is reality.

                                God is real and He wants
                                    this deep love with us.

                                We will see Him face to face
                                    in heaven for all eternity
                                    if we love and serve Him
                                    and it will be so wonderful.

 


          

Excerpt from Mass Book

December 17, 1995

THE EARTH STOPPED AND TOUCHED HEAVEN

I long to unite in the deepest union with Him in the Eucharist. I long for the Mass. I long for Thee, oh God. My every moment, I join as I did to You December 15 under the cross, where I felt Your presence. You whisked me away, and I was totally absorbed in that moment of celestial union with You. For that time, I existed only in You, in the deepest union, and I was in this moment existing in You. The earth stopped, and I touched the heavens, all my bodily cares were existent in You. I existed in Your Divinity, my being was in You. There was no desire or wish or wanting, for in that moment, I had all I wanted in You. I was satisfied and wanted nothing but to remain in that embrace. You were the Being, and my being existed in You, but I was only as I was in You - merged in You, knowing and being in Your Divinity and being so full as to feel complete in myself.

You are so enormous, and You surrounded me in a burning embrace, the presence of red fire. I was not little, or "nothing", but existed in this enormous power and being so complete!

I touched eternity, and in that embrace, I knew all the waiting was worth the glory. You enveloped my being, and I was truly merged in the Divine Presence. I was merged in Your being. I existed IN You, with You, in the highest union with You, although I knew I was still distinct from You.

I was fused and absorbed in You, feeling complete and satisfied. To describe this union is far beyond any work of my pen and paper. I pray for the reader of this page to receive the grace to share this experience with Him, I will now live for this union-to be forever merged In Him, to be One in Him, to reach higher perfection as I exist in Him, for He takes the lowly and gives to them a sharing in Himself. He merges with us and we exist in Him. The word "in" - I could write pages about. I long for the deepest union with Him, where I am swept up in the heavenly embrace of the Divine God, and I am IN Him.

This is heaven on earth: to be merged as one with Divinity, although remaining distinct from God, to take our feeble hearts, our lowly status and to unite ourselves with the Divine, Almighty, powerful God and in this union to be meshed with Him, that His power dominates and our humanity reaches its heights of fulfillment in this union, in this oneness with Him.

The word I have looked for is "oneness." I understand some of the meaning of the words "One in Him." Oneness is the word to describe this union of our humanity with His Divinity. The depth to which we could meditate on oneness with God is incomprehensible. In that moment, the earth stood still, and He, my Divine Lover, the Bridegroom of my soul, took me to Himself, and I knew the embrace of the Divine God.

Nothing on the face of this earth can describe our union with Divinity. Oh, good God, that creatures are so ungrateful regarding Your divine love. I am so sorry. Let me help make reparation to Your adorable Heart. Please unite with me now that I may more deeply love Thee.

Oh, Divine Lover of my soul, let me help make reparation to Your adorable Heart for the neglect and indifference against You.

Song from Jesus: 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.

He allowed me to experience such pain in my heart - wanting Him so badly, so many times-and then on Dec. 15, 1995 - He gave Himself to me in the deepest union.

Nothing satisfies the soul but Him. He wants the nuns and priests to love Him. He chose them to spread His love.

Souls are hungry. They will only be fed with His burning love. Priests need to talk about Jesus' love for us from the pulpit. Priests need hearts burning for love of Jesus. This will feed the hungry souls - lip service love doesn't do it.

He is alive today. He is a Person. He wants us to love Him.

Excerpt from Mass Book

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!

Picture of the Sacred Heart of JesusCome To My Tabernacle

God's Blue Book I Cover

August 28, 1993

My precious child, I long to be with you. I am here. You must find a way to be with Me every day in front of the tabernacle. If others distract you, you must find a way.

Satan is trying to stop My time with you. I am your true love and I long to spend time with you each day. Hold tight to My face. I am here little one. Don't ever doubt that again. My words are simple. They are truth. No one knows My intense love for them. I long for these moments with you. I am indeed here. If you have to come and be with Me during the day, I want these moments with you in front of the tabernacle. I am truly sitting here with you, Body and Soul.

I am Jesus, Son of the living God. Never doubt Me again. I have made myself known to you, My child. You offend Me so with your doubt and your busyness on other matters. You spend time fuming and fretting and feeling sorry for yourself when I am waiting here to be with you and talk to you. I don't care about other matters. I am very jealous. I want this time every day. You feel so bad inside when you are not alone with Me in church. That is where your comfort comes from. You are so upset inside when you do not spend it here. Don't you know these things? Being home is not the same. I am truly present in the tabernacle. You needn't run anywhere. You have a key to the church. I love you. I don't want to remind you that this is where it all is. I want you to love Me so much you don't even think you can function without time alone with Me in church. Come to Me every day. You do not go a day without food. You can't go a day without time absolutely alone with Me. If you do, it will be a disaster. Have you not felt the gnawing in your heart when you didn't do it yesterday? You crave this time alone and your tears are from not being alone with Him Whom you truly love.

I am Jesus Christ, Son of the one true God. I have chosen you to write these messages which are meant for all and you are busy-doing what, My child? Did you not cry and feel bad most of yesterday? This is your proof. You knew you wanted to be with Me here so badly you almost drove back out. You have to be alone with Me. In front of the tabernacle is best. I am the living God and I am in the tabernacle. You must be here or you will be so lost inside. Spend time with Me, My child. Nothing else matters. I am the one, true God and you shall not have other gods before Me. I command this because this is how you were created and this makes you most happy. Come to Me all you who labor and I will give you rest. I will give you peace, not as this world gives you peace, but My peace, which only I can give.

The gift I give to you, My child, is My Son. Would you refuse My gift? He waits for you every day and where do you go-to the grocery?- to do your wash? What do you do, child?

I am waiting for you. Would you keep Me waiting and turn your back? Is one hour too much for the Son of God? I give you 24 hours. One hour is so little to ask. This is where your peace lies. All else is fruitless.

Not one day should be spent without one hour of private prayer with Me, preferably in the church in front of the tabernacle. Come to Me My little babies. I want to comfort you. I want to care for you. You are all mixed up with your priorities. I grow tired that you don't listen and tell others of My great and glorious love for all My children. This is your main goal. Pray with Me and spread My intense love for all My children. Yes, and I will give you all you need, child. Quit thinking you have to do other things. You have to be with Me and I will make it all work out. I want all to know of My intense love for My children. I died that you might live, not in this world, but in the world to come. I am the way, the truth and the light. All else is useless if it is not rooted in Me and for My work. Time is very short, little one. Listen to My words. You have wasted enough time. Don't delay. All must know of My love for them. It is in Me that they are made whole. Nothing else matters, My child.
