                R. The wounded child —

                Humility is truth —

                Fr. Carter says we know the good
                things in us and we know the
                defects in us — what we need to
                die to, to be like Christ - that is
                    humility —

                Christ is love —

                To put on the Heart of Christ —
                To live in the light —
                To live in His will —

                We have a free will to say "yes"
                    to the truth about ourselves
                    or to say "no"

                Seeing ourselves as perfect is a lie —

                It says in St. John —
   

1 John 1: 8-10

If we say, ‘We have no sin,’
we are deceiving ourselves,
and truth has no place in us;
if we acknowledge our sins,
he is trustworthy and upright,
so that he will forgive our sins
and will cleanse us from all evil.
If we say, ‘We have never sinned,’
we make him a liar,
and his word has no place in us.

  

                R. There is tension in every relationship —
                    to the degree we are one with
                    God in purity and love — we
                    will unite with each other —

                There can be a group working,
                    praying before the Blessed Sacrament,
                    and a person enters who does
                    not want to be one with others
                    and never worked well with
                    others —

 

Luke 12: 39-48

You may be quite sure of this, that if the householder had known at what time the burglar would come, he would not have let anyone break through the wall of his house. You too must stand ready, because the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect.’ 

    Peter said, ‘Lord, do you mean this parable for us, or for everyone?’ The Lord replied, ‘Who, then, is the wise and trustworthy steward whom the master will place over his household to give them at the proper time their allowance of food? Blessed that servant if his master’s arrival finds him doing exactly that. I tell you truly, he will put him in charge of everything that he owns. But if the servant says to himself, "My master is taking his time coming," and sets about beating the menservants and the servant–girls, and eating and drinking and getting drunk, his master will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not know. The master will cut him off and send him to the same fate as the unfaithful. 

    ‘The servant who knows what his master wants, but has got nothing ready and done nothing in accord with those wishes, will be given a great many strokes of the lash. The one who did not know, but has acted in such a way that he deserves a beating, will be given fewer strokes. When someone is given a great deal, a great deal will be demanded of that person; when someone is entrusted with a great deal, of that person even more will be expected.

 

                R. The devil wants isolation  — he
                wants division — he wants to stop
                love. The Blessed Sacrament
                repels satan —

                God is love —

                Satan is hate —

                In the presence of the Blessed Sacrament
                    the devil is acting to try to create division —

                A person gives into temptation to
                    something in the beginning from
                    some attraction from the outside —

                As one continues to give into jealousies,
                    envies, pride - satan works
                    from within that person —

                Instead of love — being filled with
                    truth —
                    the person can give into satan, who
                    is prompting them to act maliciously
                    against his brother because of
                    jealousy, pride, anger, isolation
                    they can even pull a cruel trick on
                    their brother, prompted by satan,
                    which is prompting them from
                    within to do something cruel —
                    jealous eyes that burn with an
                    angry heart —

                God is love — We are to learn to
                    love, not develop more and more
                    impure eyes of jealousy and
                    anger and pride that tear
                    apart —

                    Here is how satan works — it
                can be in prayer before the Blessed
                Sacrament —

                    People are united as a body praying
                before the Blessed Sacrament —

                    Satan hates the Blessed Sacrament —
                he presses down on the person akin
                to jealousy, anger, envy because
                satan hates — Satan doesn't want
                anyone adoring God, praying united
                Satan is repelled by the Blessed Sacrament
                Jesus said to the degree one is pure
                inside he will be, before the Blessed
                Sacrament — in unity — in love —
                in holiness

                    Satan enters and in vices a
                person gives into envy, jealousy,
                isolation, pride — being up, seeing
                others as down —

                    Where others see with joy, singing,
                loving, the devil can come pressing
                down to tear apart, if we give
                into him —

                    The devil hates unity — There
                is tension in any relationship —
                We must see ourselves as working in
                love with others —

                People can have problems going in
                and out of doors.

                If they don't feel comfortable with
                others and only like to be alone
                they will not do well in groups
                and can cause division when
                they enter because they don't
                want to be there.

                They should either change or
                stay away, not come to be
                uncomfortable until they
                block the work and unity of others.

                Love is giving —

                A person sad their whole life —
                    thinks this way — they need to
                    see that they need to change.

                Jesus: Living in the will of the Father,
                    in love —

                Do you love?
                Love is giving.

                Love comes from asking for the
                    grace to be filled with
                    the virtue of love and
                    cooperating with it.

                A man got up every day and
                    his day was filled
                    with fear and isolation - he saw
                    darkness and this became 'his'
                    reality —

                    A person can keep working in
                abuse and another committed
                to that relationship for work
                at Church, etc. cannot change
                another person who fails to see
                the darkness in their actions.

                    I am love —
                    I am the Light of the World —

                    Men have wounded human
                natures — to see yourself and
                justify why you were always
                sad by blaming others or creating
                issues brings you more darkness —
                You were created to learn to love —
                I came to teach you how to love,
                to be Christ-like —
                to be filled with truth and gratitude
                and recognizing your faults —

                A man can try to mold others into
                    their reality — if their reality
                    is focused on them being
                    right in darkness —
                    not only do they try to live
                    their life this way against
                    God's will and the purpose
                    for which they were created —
                    to love, to be united,

                    but they try to force their divided
                dark reality on others, which is
                against God's will that others be
                forced to live in 'their dark reality' —

                    The conflict is very great —

                    A person with the wrong
                attitude toward reality trying to
                force their way on others.

                    I am the way, the truth and
                the life. I am the light of life —
                I showed you union with My Apostles —
                I showed you love —

                I showed you men who put Me
                    to death for their evil ways —

                The devil wants division —

                You are to be molded in My image
                    and likeness —
                    not the other way around
                    trying to force anyone to put
                    up with your isolated,
                    disconnected reality —

 

Picture of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

Cling to Me

May 13, 1993 

Jesus: My dear child, if you stay close to Me, then I live in you and you live in Me. I am He Who created you and I love you with such an intensity that you will never know. My words are your truth. You must abide in My heart in all things. There is no room for doubt. My ways are steadfast, direct, and without error.

    You must stay rooted in Me to ward off the power of the evil one. His grip is paralyzing and crippling. His power is stronger every day.

    When you live in Me, I am in your heart and he has no power over Me. I am your God. I am your true lover. I want to protect you. I want to guard you from this force. Stay rooted firmly in Me and he will have no power.

    I am He Who comforts you. My hand is upon you. Hold tight to Me, My child. My eyes are fixed right on you. You are My most precious child. I love you as no other can. My arms are about you. My tenderness surrounds you. My love is in your heart. You go not alone. I walk with you.

    I share every aspect of your life with you. Cling to Me, feel My presence. It is warm and secure within your chest. There is no room for fear, for I cast out fear and bring you comfort and joy.

end of May 13, 1993

   

                Jesus: You are to learn from Me —

                Not you come and try to force other
                    men to fit into your dysfunction —

                I have given the Shepherds of Christ
                    to help renew the Church and
                    the world —

                I have told you about love —
                I have taught you about unity —
                I have given you gifts far beyond
                    I have ever given with
                    insight into My love —
                    insight into My Heart —

                My Heart is on fire for love —

                A person loving - gives love —
                    not darkness —
                    not trying to mold others into
                    their darkness —

                Loving your life —
                Loving your brothers —

                Bringing My message of love
                    I gave you to deliver —

                Life is not life if it is not rooted
                    in Me —

                Working out your problems —

                Dysfunctional people keep this
                    dysfunction going by trying
                    to force their dark reality
                    on others, through means
                    they use
                    Control —
                    Force —
                    Manipulation —
                    Holding Out —
                    Disobedience to the rule —

                Satan wants rules implemented that
                    are wrong rules based on
                    principles opposed to God's
                    law —

                My law is the law of love —
                My law is truth - not lies —
                My law doesn't change —

                Men are under God —

                A man deciding he is right and
                    forcing others to live by
                    his dysfunction against
                    God's will is a menace
                    to another man —

                (1) Living to do God's will

                (2) Living for the honor and glory of God —
                    means a man recognizes his
                    creature-hood and doesn't
                    try to force his woundedness
                    on others — seeking power
                    through manipulation to
                    implement his darkness
                    on others —

                (3) Men are not your enemies —
                    all have a purpose —
                    Your envy is getting in the
                        way of other men
                        trying to serve God

                Do you see through the eyes of God?

                Do you pray to believe in God
                    and His plan for your life —
                    or are you
                    forcing your way against
                    the law of love —
                    the law of being
                    under God?

                I am the way, the truth and
                    the life —

                You are to follow Me —

                Not try to get men to serve "you"

                If a man wants happiness he must
                    control his actions!

                This is done through human
                    reasoning and will —

                Your reasoning is to be right
                    reasoning, following My
                    teachings, living by the
                    Commandments — the Word,
                    the Church

                You are to grow to be more and
                    more pure in your heart —

                Like the Virgin Mary —
                Likened to My Heart —
                The Hearts of Pure and perfect love —

                Your habits are to be virtuous —
                    habits of loving —
                    habits of seeking truth,
                                            humility —

                    habits of believing in God and
                        seeing His vision, His will —

                    habits of hope — not painting
                        a dark isolated,
                        self promoting picture

                You are to seek truth and goodness
                    as God desires —

                Reach with the soul —
                    purity of spirit —

                Man is superior to animals
                    and plants —

                Man is composed of body and
                    soul —

                You are to seek the perfection
                    of God —
                    spiritual mastery —

                Consecrating your hearts to Jesus
                    and Mary —
                    wanting to be formed in the
                    image and likeness of God —

                Not you trying to bring people
                    down to your level!!

                God is above!

                You are to be molded in His
                    image and likeness —

                Not try to force people through
                    money, manipulation and
                    control to be in your sordid
                    ways that prove disaster —

                So as a man plants - He
                    will reap —

                A man focused on himself —
                    full of fear —
                    isolation —
                    control
                    manipulation of others —

                Will not seek to learn My ways —
                    in the darkness they
                    keep hugging their
                    sordid ways because their
                    reasoning becomes more and more
                    dark —

                Do you see what I see —
                Do you see the Father's will —

                Are you big enough to let God
                    be your ruler or like
                    Eve in the garden — who
                    in her pride —
                    wanted to be equal to God —

                Look at the seeds Eve
                    planted and
                    look at the harvest for
                    listening to satan —

                So shall you sow —
                So shall you reap —

                Sin is sin —
                I call you to love —
                I call you to be thankful —
                I call you to look up to God
                    and His ways —

                Not you trying to pull down
                    everything around you
                    to your dark ways —

                I love, I love, I love —

                Circulate the Blue Books —
                Tell people I love them —

                Admit your faults and say
                    you are sorry —

                Admit your anger which sometimes
                    comes do deep —

                Anger from childhood passed on —

                See your parents work on themselves —
                    thank God and work on
                    yourselves — you were
                    trained by them —
 
 

Deuteronomy 5: 8-9

...For I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God and I punish the parents' fault in the children, the grandchildren and the great-grandchildren, among those who hate me;

   

Deuteronomy 5: 8-9

...For I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God and I punish the parents' fault in the children, the grandchildren and the great-grandchildren, among those who hate me;

   

Deuteronomy 5: 8-9

...For I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God and I punish the parents' fault in the children, the grandchildren and the great-grandchildren, among those who hate me;

     

                Jesus: You can walk to God by your free
                    morally good actions —
                    Or you walk away from
                        Me by your evil
                        actions - you choose
                        with your free will —

                You need God's grace to be good —
                    You need to recognize your
                    dependence on God —
                    A fool thinks he's in
                    control — you have a
                    free will, but you need My grace
                    to help you do good — to think
                    you can do it on your own
                    is not right —

                You make choices many times
                    because of habits —

                A man who is loving finds
                    it easier to love from
                    a pure heart —
                    he has developed the habit
                    of loving —
                    God gives you the increase
                        in that virtue - you
                        cooperate with it by
                        your free will —

                Or you choose the bad habits of
                    tricking others, forcing your
                    evil ways on others through
                    control —
                    bad habits of jealousy and not
                        love, habits of envy,
                        habits of anger —
                        never admitting your
                        sins and asking others
                        to forgive you while
                        you change your
                        ways and pray for grace
                        to love — to see through
                        the eyes of God — to
                        beg the Holy Spirit to help you                       

               Habits are the ways you act in
                    good ways or bad ways —
                    to act according to God's will or
                    to oppose God's will —

                To see relations work in the
                    building of My Kingdom there
                    must be order —
                    the devil attacks authority
                    through those refusing to
                    respect the authority and
                    from the past thinking
                    authority is not a good thing,
                    from angry parents, bosses,
                    people who were not acting
                    in authority as they should —

                I put order into things —

                I give authority —

                The person afraid of authority,
                    goes to those under him to
                    rebel against authority
                    over him — so he can
                    be strong against the order
                    that is needed to work —

                This creates problems —
                    Since what should be done
                        is avoided —
                    Discrediting authority —
                    One does, by choice, what
                        they shouldn't do
                        giving power from the
                        bottom up —

                This makes for wrong decisions every
                    time, one disobeys just
                    authority, discredits authority
                    and empowers confusion and
                    dissension from those under
                    authority —
                    Disorder is the work of satan

                Order is how I operate —

                Looking at any piece of equipment
                    one sees that the pieces must
                    be put in place in the
                    right order for it to
                    operate —

                God is in charge — people are
                    in authority and order is imitate for
                    things to work properly as they
                    should —

                Did you ever assemble a prefab
                    cabinet wrong — one with
                    pre-drilled holes and nuts and
                    bolts needed in certain places —

                When somebody starts without
                    the right order — the right
                    direction many times it must be
                        disassembled to
                        correct the wrong - doing
                        to complete the project—

                Habits are to lead to greater perfection —
                    Living virtuously —

                The person who acquires good
                    habits has a blessed life,
                    living under God —
                    in harmony as I intended
                    them to live —

                The person with bad habits,
                    vices, envy, jealousy,
                    anger - develop bad
                    habits and is working
                    against God's will, against
                    His order of loving others
                    and helping all in the Plan of
                    God as He intends —

                A man challenging authority and
                    working this way over a decade
                    is lucking the place still
                    is operating — for he is
                    missing the blessings only
                    God can give and forcing his
                    impurities on the place
                    which lead to more and more
                    suffering for all in
                    everything they do —

                Satan wants to disrupt the order
                    and bring disorder —
                    he presses on those entering
                    with jealous eyes when
                    others are working to build the
                    Kingdom of God —
                    Soon it becomes such a habit
                        it becomes almost
                        automatic —

                You want the blessings only I
                    can give — You want work
                    in harmony — not letting
                    the thief in a place
                    that is operating —

 

Luke 12: 39-48

You may be quite sure of this, that if the householder had known at what time the burglar would come, he would not have let anyone break through the wall of his house. You too must stand ready, because the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect.’ 

    Peter said, ‘Lord, do you mean this parable for us, or for everyone?’ The Lord replied, ‘Who, then, is the wise and trustworthy steward whom the master will place over his household to give them at the proper time their allowance of food? Blessed that servant if his master’s arrival finds him doing exactly that. I tell you truly, he will put him in charge of everything that he owns. But if the servant says to himself, "My master is taking his time coming," and sets about beating the menservants and the servant–girls, and eating and drinking and getting drunk, his master will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not know. The master will cut him off and send him to the same fate as the unfaithful. 

    ‘The servant who knows what his master wants, but has got nothing ready and done nothing in accord with those wishes, will be given a great many strokes of the lash. The one who did not know, but has acted in such a way that he deserves a beating, will be given fewer strokes. When someone is given a great deal, a great deal will be demanded of that person; when someone is entrusted with a great deal, of that person even more will be expected.

   

                Jesus: It's almost like you feel the
                devil walk through the door
                where there is unity — then
                the attack starts —

                    Pray, spread My Blood,
                Consecrate the Person as far as
                you are able, ask the Holy Spirit
                to come, unite to the Masses going
                on around the world —

                    Sing Songs of Praise to Me —
                Pray the rosary, Pray the Shepherds of
                Christ prayers —

                Your enemy is not each other —
                it is satan —
                recognize satan and his
                ways of giving you bad
                counsel while everything is
                working —
                he comes in hurt feelings, jealousy,
                envy, anger, pride and instead
                of doing God's will the person
                gives into him, it can be
                so habitual with vices they
                have developed - they must
                seek holiness —
                recognize their sins —

                Pray for increase in virtues of
                    faith, hope and love —
                Cast the devil out

                Ask God to help you acquire
                    habits of loving and gratitude —

                Pray to love God and others as yourself
                Cooperate with the grace given

 

                From December 13, 2012 - Feast of St. Lucy

                R. Children are happy, care free —
                    they move their bodies,
                    they like to dance —
                    they are like children —
                    there are lots of facial
                        expressions —
                    Confidence — Smiles

                Children are loose

                Children show in their face
                    and body how they feel —

                Arms up —

                Twisting their little bodies
                    around —

                Sitting on the floor —
                Jumping on the couch —
                leaning in —
                free body movements —
                Smiles

                R. Jerry is devoted to his vocation —
                    he is smiling
                    he is happy — 

                Babies are cute —
                What an awesome gift —
                A baby formed in a mother's womb —

                Mary is the Mother of us —
                She could appear with an
                    embryo in her eye —

                The eyes are the windows of the
                    soul —

                Look at the expressions we
                    can make with our face —

                Look at a million expressions a
                    little 4 months old can do —
                    smiling, opening his mouth,
                    laughing, turning,
                    chewing their hand,
                    sucking their thumb —

                Let's loosen up and praise God —

                Let's not be stiff, but love God
                    with our whole heart, our
                    whole soul, our whole being

                Feel the freedom of letting go of
                    things we need to let go of and
                    be free in living our
                    vocation as God wants —

                Look at the freedom of children —
                    they can move and dance
                    and show how they feel —

                Mary appears to me and
                    prays with us —

                Mary wants us to know she
                    is with us —

                She shows me her eyes in all
                    different ways —
                    different faces —
                    I have seen different shades
                        to her skin —

                Play Ava Maria —

                Say Hail Marys —

                Mary's eyes are so beautiful —
                She is so beautiful —
                Mary's eyes are loving —
                Her face is bright - lighted
                    beautiful —

                She looks different in age and
                    nationalities —

                Mary loves us so much —

                Mary wants us to know happiness
                    is in God —

                Obeying God's will brings happiness.

                The Christ Child is the most
                    perfect child conceived —

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
$ 10.00 plus postage

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

Guiding Light - The Word Alive in Our Hearts

$ 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
