Division Starts in the Heart
R. Jesus comes naked in the world. God is all powerful. Look at the sky, see the sun. We think we have to control things. He tells us to let Him do everything. Mary was silent. If I model myself after Jesus, I have stripped myself of my will opposed to His will. Why should I fear? I need to leave it all up to Him.
Mary presented the Child Jesus in the temple, to the Father. Mary places us in the Heart of Jesus. It is there we go to the Father.
I feel so connected to the priest for He represents Christ to us. I feel the presence of Christ in the priest.
Ways of Christ: Without fear - never fearful, naked, never carried stuff on His back, gentle, loving, never anxious, accepted suffering, silent, gave Himself - (give your shirt) - did not hold back.
Ways of Mary: Silent, always did the will of the Father, loving, beautiful, sorrowing and loving, selfless.
Imperfections - Imitations of Christ
Dying to ourselves Dying to self
Rising in Him Rising to Pure HeartsOur hearts are being made more pure. Only in purity in heart can we unite deeply to Him. We are constantly learning how to let go of impurities in our hearts. He gives us the grace. He gives us the lessons. It is an act of the will to choose love instead of bitterness. We struggle, we have a fallen human nature, from the sin of Adam and Eve, and our nature is elevated in baptism – We must constantly keep our focus on Him, our eyes on Jesus and Mary, as our models. We give our hearts to Them. We are hearts of love. There is peace in our hearts and peace in the world. We give into temptations, many times. Sometimes people have hearts of bitterness and hate and selfishness and the world suffers. There are wars when people's hearts are hateful, they strike out at others like an attacking snake and cause wars.
Division starts in the heart. Wars do not happen overnight. Time after time in the silence of a man's heart he gives into thoughts of division. He conjures up reasons why he is justified to hate some person or group of people. He says (an act of the will) "yes" to hatred and bitterness, then it is eminent in the situation that he will respond in bitterness and hate. He allows his heart to stir up with anger. Anger is a force that needs to be vented. The more anger is in his heart, the bigger the explosion.
People have years and years, generations and generations, of bottled up anger. They release it when it gets to a pressure point. Does this happen because the person it is directed at is angry? No, it happens because of the person who is angry, explodes, or acts on their anger at another. Their hearts are not pure. When they could have chosen to love, they gave into thoughts of hatred in their hearts.
Jesus tells me I must love. He tells me in my heart, I must love. Love is an act of the will. Love is peace. Love is always. Love does not give into thoughts of hatred and division. Love, loves when it is tempted to divide. Love, loves the beggar. Love, loves the rich man. Love, loves all...the shabby dressed and the most perfected. Love, loves the educated and the uneducated. Love, loves because Jesus loves. We look at Jesus and Mary: we do not look to Adam and Eve! We do not give into our fallen human natures – we pray for the grace to respond in love.
The reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of the Immaculate Heart will occur when men have given their hearts to Jesus and Mary.
Our walk to Calvary, following in Jesus' footsteps.
Jesus is love. We must discipline our thoughts with love.
Whenever division is created in our heart toward our brothers, we must realize satan wishes to divide us from them. When we give into division in our hearts, it makes us feel bad. I cannot be divided in my heart against my neighbor and be deeply united to God. God is love. I may not agree with my neighbor, but I pray for them.
How do I respond in love? When I have thoughts of division toward my brother, I must choose love over division. Love is an act of the will. I must say in my heart, I love _____.
When my heart is troubled and filled with doubt and worry, I know the devil is working. God is peace. At this point I must tell Jesus how I love Him. I love You, Jesus. I will not give into thoughts of confusion and doubt. I give myself to Him.
Man was created to love God and love one another.
I must discipline my thoughts. The seeds are sown in our hearts. They cannot germinate if I do not nourish them. Seeds of love will grow into a great vine – it must be nourished with love.
We look to Jesus and Mary as our models. How did they respond? They always loved.
Let us walk the walk to Calvary with Jesus. Let us walk in love. Let us carry the cross with love in our hearts. He was persecuted, whipped, and He responded in love.
Response to God's love: He first loved us. I must focus on His love for me so that I can love in return.
Christ is the teacher. Jesus and Mary are our models. As we model our lives after Them, we become the teachers in today's world. Who does He send when we say no?
The cycle is this: to respond in love we must know God's love first. We are given the craving for His love. This is our greatest appetite. When we feel loved ourselves, we want to love others.
Love is like fire - it spreads; hatred is filled with force. Will we plant seeds of love or seeds of anger? As we are in our hearts, so shall we be in the world.
The Lord has watered our hearts with love; hatred dries out the plump heart and leaves it barren.
Hatred is loneliness; love is binding.
Hatred is painful; love is happiness.
Hatred is unrest; love is peace.
God Is Love.How it hurts our Savior to give so much and to see all who would respond to His love with anger and bitterness.
Jesus said to me: Are you doing this for Me or for you? Then He said, "plant My seeds."

Be a Child of the Light
Jesus: My eyes turn trustingly to you. Be a child of the light.
August 6, 1996 - Mass at Glenmary
Paradise on the River
R. At Mass I had such a realization of the great gifts given to me when He has imparted to me His presence. Oh, but Your presence, oh, that You were transfigured before my face, oh, that I saw You, God, my God.
Oh, my God, the time at Immaculata when I was alone with You; the lights that descend from the Child to the Resurrected Lord on Holy Saturday were beyond any human expression. (I am wiped out from this Mass, laid waste in Him.)
We were here at the Center to pray the rosary and run off by satan's forces! We have been sent to this, our paradise on the river, to pray and to receive His grace outpoured. As the river appears, an endless abyss of glistening splendor, our souls are filled with His glorious grace and we behold His life alive in us.
Tom's Farm
R. Oh, beautiful grace, oh, beautiful light.
Sing: Amazing Grace
To be this reflective light, we must rid ourselves of selfishness, anger, bitterness. We must give ourselves entirely to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
Oh, apostles, I call you to the light that you will light up the earth.
Oh, earth, oh beauteous earth created by God, how we have squandered Your waters and treated Your streams with pollution. How we have killed our children, the children that would inherit the earth! Is there no respect for life? You came and You shed Your blood that we would share Your Divine Life.
How beauteous Your works, how enduring Your love, how You are the Son of God. I love You, Jesus.
Mary was conceived without sin, chosen by God the Father, for this role to be Mother of God, I love you, Mary.
Oh, Mary, Immaculate, all pure, all sinless, we cast our eyes to you, our most pure model and Mother. Oh, Mother of the Divine Lord, oh Mary Immaculate, I love you. Oh God, oh God, oh God, I worship and adore You.
Model our loving after Him. I am the teacher of the God who lives within. As the bells toll, at every moment, we unite in the Mass. He is filled - always going out in love - self-giving. He enlists our help. We are His instruments of love in the world.
August 6, 1996 - Feast of the Transfiguration
The Presence of God
R. The Mass was the greatest. I felt the presence so strong it was like grabbing onto a hot wire. I feel the presence of Christ stronger around holy people. Jesus wooed me into such intimacy with Him. He gave me a grace and I kept surrendering more and more, begging Him to give me His all. I wanted everything like Him. He wants to be loved. He wants us pure. He wants us to keep telling Him how much we love Him. We must model our loving after Him. He gave His all. We must give as He gave. Love is an act of the will. Love is a sacrifice. The bell tolls at every second we unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. God is love. He is always going out in love. We help in the work of redemption by our self-giving love. We are His instruments of love in the world.

The Devil Wants the Rosary Stopped
Jesus: There is jealousy among the leaders in the Shepherds of Christ Movement who aim to stop these messages. You have been met with the greatest resistance from those who I have called to support you and help you circulate the rosaries.
The rosaries are a major part of the completion of the Fatima message. These rosaries have been met with greatest resistance because of their importance to the peace and love in this world. The Fatima message has been ignored since 1917 because of its importance to promote peace and help souls. This message has been met with great resistance. You will understand more fully the resistance you have experienced in circulating these rosaries. The devil does not want rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary to reach the world.
This is a major form of communication for the completion of the Fatima message. The more these messages and rosaries are circulated, the more hearts will fervently worship and love My Heart.
This is a great gift to this world. I have revealed the knowledge of the tenderness of My Heart and My Mother's Heart. When these messages are circulated and lived, it will help in the reign of My Sacred Heart and the triumph of My Mother's Heart.
You must proceed in holiness in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. They must live the Blue Book messages.
I have given to you this rosary led by Fr. Carter and messages received by Rita Ring, to help this movement grow in their holiness and love.
The devil has attempted over and over again to stop the rosary. This is a major form of prayer I am using for the movement in Cincinnati. The leaders have ignored the importance of these messages. If you continue to fight the messages you will have horrendous problems.
This is My Plan to help bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart on earth and the triumph of My Mother's Immaculate Heart. You fight the messages, you say you are too busy, the funds will not come until you pay attention to the messages.
The leaders refuse to read the messages and live them. The apostles proceeded in love across the country to spread the good news. Your leaders are not reading My messages to them.
The same people have ignored these messages since 1993. The time is urgent. Satan will attempt to divide Fr. Carter and Rita. These writings are a major form of communication for the renewal of the Church and the world and to help bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the triumph of Mary's Immaculate Heart.
I beg you to impress upon the leaders the importance of these messages. I will not provide the funds until I am obeyed. The situation is urgent. I have been ignored. There is division and problems in your movement because of the leaders, who through pride do not wish to read the messages I am giving to them. You will not proceed ahead if you fight My messages any longer.
This is My Plan. These are My messages. The peace of the world is affected by this behavior, of the leaders. This is My Plan. your problems will increase beyond proportion until you read the messages that I am giving to you. How do I get the attention of those who are involved - to ignore Me any longer will have repercussions.
I am asking Fr. Carter and Rita to invite the adjoining prayer Chapters in Cincinnati, Kentucky and Indiana to come to the weekly meeting. This meeting can be changed to a time that is more convenient for all. All should be made aware of the messages given during the rosaries. The Apostles proceeded ahead and they were encouraged by the letters of Paul and the others. These are My directions for the Apostles in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. The leaders have ignored the messages I am delivering to all. How will you proceed when there is bitterness and control in the hearts of many? The Apostles proceeded in love and holiness. How can you spread devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary when the leaders are not understanding the terms of consecration. The leaders cannot lead without teaching. You are focusing on the operation and ignoring the main purpose of the Movement.
The peace will come when hearts are holy hearts consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, observing the First Saturday devotion and making reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and making reparation to God for the offenses against Him.
Your leaders do not understand the terms of consecration, reparation, oneness - those apostles in the field traveling for Shepherds of Christ must be taught about Mary's Peace Plan for the world.
The main purpose in this Movement must be: love of God and love of each other. The main emphasis must be in modeling your lives after Our lives. Are the lives of the leaders like Jesus Christ and Mary? When you are one in Our Hearts, you are holy in all your actions. I am calling you to holiness. I am calling you to live the messages.

The Embrace of God
R. The gift I have received has isolated me from this world. I am on earth, yet Jesus is talking to me. Jesus takes me into an ecstasy and I see and embrace a Divine Savior most deeply. I am intimately joined to Him in the deepest way. I outpour myself to Him and beg Him for His Divine Embrace.
Then He let me see the suffering of hell. The suffering was so deep within my soul as I have never suffered before. The depth of lack of understanding, the agony in my being as if I was dying on the cross. I finally just had to totally let go, the suffering was so great. I could see nothing. I just knew agony, nothing but utter agony beyond suffering. My head hurt so bad. I could not stand it and I was just totally wrapped in suffering. I felt as if I was dying a hundred deaths on the cross. I had to just let go to the agony. I was totally out of it in the agony as I am in the ecstasy as if totally surrendered and knew nothing but immense suffering, as to be on the cross with Him.
I went to confession Tuesday and had an ecstasy. He took me to Himself and I intimately joined to Him, surrendering myself totally.
I feel as if, nobody on the face of this earth knows anything of what I have experienced. I feel alone. I feel, nobody on the face of this earth knows anything of these things. I know ecstasies and agonies He has imparted to me.
Agony of Agonies, Ecstasies and Ecstasies. I know visions and visions, grace being spilled out to the earth. The Lord, transfigured before me, the agony of Mary under the cross, over and over, how she felt when she looked in His eyes, the sorrows, the intense love and joy. I know the pain They let me know of her holding His lifeless body under the cross. I felt her pain in her heart as she first touched His dead skin, when they took Him down from the cross. I know His rejection, His agony in the garden. I have suffered so and I felt as if I would sweat blood. I know suffering as if moments before His death. I know His suffering sitting in front of the tabernacle. I know the Divine embrace. I know what it is to want Him more completely. There is peace in heaven, total satisfaction. I know the Divine intimate embrace. I know intimacies.
Jesus wants us to give and give more and give more in surrender and emptying oneself, to be one in Him, begging Him for everything that is His, suffering, joy, whatever, just hungering for it all. Giving my all to Him. Hungering for His love and wanting oneness in Him. It is intimacy with Jesus - the deepest oneness, a grace given I cannot explain, beyond all union, that moment of total surrender with My Divine God. The grace He gives that I can give and give and slip into ecstasy in that oneness. Oh, Divine God, to be here is such agony, to know You and live in this senseless world. The world that does not know and does not want to know, that knows not of Your Divine splendor and not of souls in hell. Oh pray for the souls, help me to get this message He gave out to souls. He is alive. Oh pray for hearts in sin.
I have seen the heavens open up and seen the grace spill on the earth. I have heard the bells toll as God says, "wake up, wake up." Souls are at stake - and man, in his ignorance, does not hear the tolling of the bell. He sees not the sun come up or the moon go down. Oh that the sun would turn to a disk in the sky, would men take notice, or that the moon turn to blood? Some men see as in a box, some feel like a stone. There is not life in the men with a stone heart. He craves life and fills himself with senseless pleasures and plain talk. Why can he not talk of love and God and the things of the world unseen. He is blind and dumb and reaches for only that which is visible when the treasure sleeps in the field and the pauper looks for a tune to play to comfort his aching soul and finds none.
Jesus: Oh, senseless men, I lament your ignorance. I lament your blasphemies. I lament the loss of your soul, for the days are coming when senseless men will be judged and thrown into the fire. You have suffered, My child, for the deeds of men that scorn Me and give Me the greatest pain - the senseless ones who know not and have lost their way entirely. Their souls are in sin, their hearts are as tombs of hard stone. They seek nothing of any account and their deeds have turned vile, pure filth, what to do with the senseless ones, that I will hurl these souls into a fiery pit and they might then know they lived their life in vain. They sought after senseless pleasures, they made the world their home and now for all eternity they will reap what they sowed. They labored in vain. They will not be comforted. They will pay the price for their sins in the fiery chambers of hell. They will not see the light of day, they will be thrown on a heap of dust, washed out and left to rot. This was your treasure, My beloved ones - you gave yourself to a dung heap pile, you wasted your life.
You suffered for the souls of the senseless ones. Come child and comfort My aching Heart with your suffering. Put aside the world for I have revealed to you the mysteries of My Heart. The ecstasies, the agonies, the rejections, the pains - I have given you the very emotions that enclose the chambers of My Heart. I have shown you, the light to deliver My messages I have not shared with My dearest saints. You have seen the grace spill to the earth from the chambers of heaven, the lights of the day, the celestial glory of the unknown and I have shown you suffering that you would know the agony of a soul lost forever to eternal damnation. You have been taken into My Heart and tasted the sweetest intimacies of My love and taken into suffering to hear how the souls cry out in utter anguish and pain.
You know the glories of heaven, the pits of hell, the delights and intimacies of My Heart, the pain of My Passion. You, My child, are My Heart beating in this world. In these letters and rosaries, many will fervently love Me.
Do not give up for as you know the glories of heaven and know how hearts will love Me, you know how some of how a soul feels that is condemned forever to the fire of hell. You know the torments of the blackest chambers of hell. Help the souls, I beg you. Don't ever give up for I have entrusted to you the work of My Heart. You are My instrument to set hearts on fire with My Most tender burning love. Do not give up for the light of day is dawning upon you and Fr. Carter. The black night of the soul has ended. You will see this movement spread like fire across the earth and you will lead these souls to My Heart. The dawn will break and many will be taught the secrets of My Heart. Many will know My love. You must never divide from him, My beloved, for I love this man dearly. My love I give to him through you, My child. Do not give in to the pains of this night. You have suffered for souls. You have suffered the terror of the night and the dawn will come upon you and light your way with My light.
Oh child, do not give up. I am pleased with you both. You have been tried and tested and found worthy to share deeply in My love, to carry this light to this darkened earth.
See the vision of fire spreading across the earth and the golden glow of My love dawning upon many. (All I see is red fire, hot with yellow glow against a dark night - a raging fire at night.)
You are the Shepherds I send into the field to lead the strayed ones back to My heart, to lead them home. I am forever with you. Rest in My love.
R. Jesus suffered such agony in His death on the cross. I know suffering. I was just suffering, yesterday I just screamed out in pain and an utter cry of the blackest pain.
Jesus: You are given these ecstasies and agonies of My Heart.
R. I feel frustrated to explain what I know.
Vision: I see the raging fire and yellow against the darkened night. I see a fireman in front, so little and dressed in black, with a hose, as if he is so powerless over the mighty fire. Nothing can come against this raging fire of His love, not principality, not demons, nothing can stop this horrendous fire.
R. I was so intimate with Him after confession and then He let me suffer so deep a pain.
August 12, 1996
Mary Appeared all Night
R. The Church, the world and the individual Christian are in the state of becoming more and more in the image of Jesus. The devil is pressing down. I see Adam and Eve sinned. I see them to the extreme left. I see the New Adam, the New Eve. Mary and Jesus to the extreme right. We are on our journey home. We have a tainted, fallen nature, we tend toward sin.
I saw myself pleading to my Mother, pleading and pleading to help me. She was in the Sorrowful Mother statue above me. I was below. I was a little child in my Mother's house. I visited her. I pleaded. My Mother has appeared to me over and over again, to comfort me and teach me His way. I was looking up and I was begging her to help me. She softly told me I must go to her heart, to her spiritual womb - I would be safe there. I see how the Incarnation goes on in us.
I see how the Incarnation goes on is us. "Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars." Revelation 12:1 Mary was pregnant. Mary is always bringing forth her children. She is the pure one, the sinless one – Eve sinned.
We are the little ones in her womb. Life comes from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through the heart of Mary and into us and we act as channels of His life, living in this world today. The more we are saturated with His life, the more He lives in us in the world. The more we are one in Him, the more He lives in us in the world. We must want to be likened to Him.
I have been going through the greatest struggles ever. I look up to Mary as a little child and I see. I am outside, she is above me. I am pleading. She says, "come to my heart." The last struggles I have gone through have been so intense. I could only find peace seeing myself in her heart, my spiritual womb, all curled up and protected. Embryos in the womb of their mother have no cares, no concerns, no worries. Dwelling in the heart of Mary is how Jesus wants us to be. In heaven there are no worries, all our anxieties are lifted. This is how it is for an embryo. They have no cares no fears, they are supplied their life through their mother. The life flows from God into the womb of the mother. Mary's Immaculate Heart is our spiritual womb. Mary is bringing us forth in the image and likeness of God through the Holy Spirit. Mary is bringing forth the Church in the Holy Spirit, more and more in the image and likeness of Jesus. Mary is Mother of the Church.
If I remain outside of her womb, the devil presses in on me. I deal with all the problems of my fallen human nature and others. The more a person tends toward the wounded human nature, in vices, the devil has an open door, the more the devil works through them. The more a person tends toward God, in virtue, the more they are likened to God.
If I dwell in the spiritual womb of Mary, the Father sees me as the little child in Mary's Heart. The more I dwell in Mary's Heart, I will live more according to God the Father's will in love. If I unite all of my actions as an offering to my Father, united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, going on around the world, the Father looks down and sees His Son and accepts my sacrifice, outpouring grace, spilled on the earth.
How can the Father refuse me His little child when I come united to the Mass in the Heart of Mary.
A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.
I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.
Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.
Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.
Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.
Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.
-Mass Book, December 27, 1995
R. The further I am from dwelling in Their Hearts, the more satan can work. I go to Mary's heart and she takes me to Jesus' Heart. I want to be saturated with His grace in me.
Jesus was formed in Mary's womb by the power of the Holy Spirit. We are formed within her spiritual womb, her Immaculate Heart, more and more in the image of Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Incarnation goes on in us. Mary's heart dwells most perfectly in the Heart of Jesus. She is the pure one. She is the sinless one. She is our model. We tend toward sin, dwelling in Their Hearts makes a difference. As long as I am outside Their Hearts, the devil will be able to work on me. In the heart of Mary I am held secure and protected by her.
Do we want to be holy? Do we want to love? Do we fall when we do not want to? Do we give into unloving thoughts towards others in our mind? Are we afraid that we will be unloved?
Jesus is the source of all life; Jesus is love. Jesus came to this earth, He lived, died and rose on the 3rd day – We unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass — the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present. Through the pierced Heart of Jesus the Church was born, water for baptism and blood for the Eucharist. We see the blood and water pour out from His pierced Heart. We see that God grants grace and mercies. Life comes from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through the heart of Mary, into us and we act as a channel of His life in the world.
As we dwell in Their Hearts, as we become one in Them, and we unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, immense graces are released.
I had three visions: The glistening, reflective, golden light, beyond all description, came from the cross, through the exposed Eucharist onto and in front of the altar of sacrifice, March 26, 1996. The first vision began at 8:00 a.m., with the bell tolling and ended at 9:00 with the bell tolling.
The second vision was on Holy Saturday night, the Vigil of Easter. We hear the readings of Genesis on creation, the readings about Noah, the readings about Abraham and His son, the readings of Exodus, the sea was divided and they passed into the promised land. Isaiah 4: 2-6 His Heart is that refuge that shelters us from the rain – He gave me a song. We will be given water to quench our thirst. Isaiah 55: 1-11, Romans 6: 3-11 and Colossians 3: 1-4.
In the second vision: The reflective light came from St. Joseph holding out the child, to the bottom was the Resurrected Lord and grace reigned down on the flowers and the earth.
The dawning is upon us. The reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the triumph of Mary's heart is near.
It will come when hearts are one in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
The third vision had began at the consecration of the Mass. The bell tolled exactly at 7:00 a.m. at the consecration. Then it started: the sanctuary was adorned in celestial light and it remained so after the Mass. Again the immense grace looked as if it was spread on the flowers and a fountain (that was there - from Easter). It was now after Easter – the life will flow through the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass when hearts are one in Their Hearts.
The bell tolls, we unite to the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present in the Mass. Every act that we perform is a heroic deed when we are acting according to the Father's will and acting in love, dwelling in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, united to the Mass.
"Oh, holy fountain of grace, the Church, the Holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the Hearts of greatest love and fountain through which God's life flows. Divine life flows through the Hearts of greatest love."
I see myself in the early stages of life. So unformed. I am ready to be molded more and more into His image. I need the life of God flowing through My Mother. When I received the experience on December 15, 1995, my human nature was elevated to such heights. I see myself now on the way. In heaven I will be pure and sanctified, full of grace, wrapped in the embrace of the Trinity.
I see myself in the
heart of Mary, my spiritual womb. I
see the Holy Spirit surrounding me in a white lacy mist, moving and
working in me. I see myself in the Heart of Christ. I could never before
put myself with Christ on the cross. I saw myself lined up with Him on
the cross, under Him. I see myself, within His Heart as He dies - I die
to my selfish ways.
I am in His Heart. He lives in me. I unite to Him in the Mass on the
cross.
Romans 6: 3-11
You cannot have forgotten that all of us, when we were baptised into Christ Jesus, were baptised into his death. So by our baptism into his death we were buried with him, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the Father’s glorious power, we too should begin living a new life. If we have been joined to him by dying a death like his, so we shall be by a resurrection like his: realising that our former self was crucified with him, so that the self which belonged to sin should be destroyed and we should be freed from the slavery of sin. Someone who has died, of course, no longer has to answer for sin.
But we believe that, if we died with Christ, then we shall live with him too. We know that Christ has been raised from the dead and will never die again. Death has no power over him any more. For by dying, he is dead to sin once and for all, and now the life that he lives is life with God. In the same way, you must see yourselves as being dead to sin but alive for God in Christ Jesus.
Since you have been raised up to be with Christ, you must look for the things that are above, where Christ is, sitting at God’s right hand. Let your thoughts be on things above, not on the things that are on the earth, because you have died, and now the life you have is hidden with Christ in God. But when Christ is revealed-and he is your life-you, too, will be revealed with him in glory.
R. I must surrender and I must look into the eyes of Jesus. Jesus is suffering and loves us, even when we sin, He still loves us. When we see a person's eyes, we see a connection to the soul and the heart.
I know so much from Jesus looking into Mary's eyes. I have been wrapped in love's embrace when suffering. This is most powerful – to be one with Mary and Jesus. To meditate on the suffering of Mary and Jesus looking into each others eyes on the way to Calvary, can comfort us.
Look into the eyes of the child Jesus, as Mary did at birth.
Look into our eyes at birth - our eyes are bright and beautiful. Then, we begin to suffer, and our hearts turn colder, Our eyes show our hearts and our soul. Only in love are our eyes bright and beautiful. Hearts that are pure reflect the life inside.
August 12, 1996
The Beating Heart of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.
Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"
Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us.

Guiding Light
- Reflect on the Word
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.

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A — The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 | ||
|
|
Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C — In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |
Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B — At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |
