Messenger: The gift God gives to man in
Oh He wrapped me in
His arms and gave me an awareness
of His deep love for me and every
Word in the scriptures so
much a part of my life and
treasured by me so much
insighted such depth of
awareness of the gift of
the Word, I scarce can
explain any of this in
words.
The heaven opens and
the burning door to love
opens for me it is union
with God found in the
Mass when He acts on my
soul.
The Word and its fullness
means ever more to me
not in words, but in the
oneness I have with God and
every word of the scriptures
and the Mass deeply penetrates
my heart and soul.
Oh the gift of the Mass
the gift of the priest
The gift of the precious
Body and Blood of the
Savior.
I went to the Cathedral
now there is such a connection
in my soul with Him there
for it is there He appeared
to me on the First Friday
and First Saturday of December
as the King on His throne
On the first Saturday with flashes
of light going across the front
of Him and my realization
of how truly present
Jesus is in the priest,
but I know Jesus, God
I know the Mass and I so
deeply unite to Him when
He acts on my soul with
this special grace.
I am a mystic, I feel
so deeply the oneness I
know in Him, so one
in knowledge with God
and He acts so intimately
on my soul, my vision
of it all so wide as I
bathe in the joy of the
resurrection and His life
within me.
Oh faltering, blabbering
words and I know heaven
from the ecstasies and the words
of Luke in the Annunciation
fills my soul with such
knowledge and joy I can
only cry from insight
into the mystery deep
within my soul.
Depth Depth
Depth God the Father
sent His Son the Savior
of the world
the meaning of Christmas
the depth I know of this
Divine mystery within me
Oh I know Jesus appearing
at the point of death First
Friday of December, 8 years ago and
then Mary appeared in
in Clearwater December 17, 1996
12 days later and I know so
fully insight into the mystery
of the incarnation and what
it means to us
The intensity of this
hidden mystery delights
my soul, fills me with
joy and I hunger for
completeness forever in
Him
I cry out to God Oh
God I love you so much
Oh God I love you so much
Oh God I love you so much
I want this intense union
with Thee
I see, the inside of His
Sacred Heart as a warm
vat so deeply I am
united to Him, I know
this place of great depth
of union of being in
such an ecstasy of wanting
not even to write here to
just be in Him like
this wanting this place
of being in Him united
as I cannot even express
here.
Heaven God I long
forever to have the fullness
of life, forever in heaven
rooted in Thee
I kept hearing the song
Proclaim the Joyful Message and
my heart sings
I live with my heart in
song in union with
Him
To know Him is to sing
to have a heart ravished
with Divine love
To know oneness with God
and its embrace and to
rest in this magnificent
place with Him.
The world stands still,
the color is warm yellow,
light tinted with red
like the fibers of His
Heart there is warmth,
presence and a feeling of
peace and joy beyond
anything that could be
experienced here in
the material things of
the earth.
Isaiah 30: 23
You will hold unclean
the silverplating of your idols
and the goldplating of your images.
You will throw them away
like the polluted things they are,
shouting after them, Good riddance!

First Friday at the point
of death
Excerpt from April 4, 2003
Messenger: I saw Him at the point of death on the cross December 5, 1996, after Mary appeared 500 times.
He hung, all battered, greatly weakened. His mouth moved very clearly. It seems that a man in His condition could not move His mouth to that extent.
Later in the rosary that night, He gave messages and said: "No one was listening."

Consecrate Your Churches, Home, and Workplace to Our Hearts
Jesus speaks: I want you to consecrate the human race to Sacred Heart of Jesus. I want to be enthroned in all homes, churches, and businesses.
June is the month of the Sacred Heart. I want to be king and center of all hearts. I will keep My promises given to St. Margaret Mary of Alacoque. I promise all this from My most Sacred Heart. Consecrate your chapter to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Consecrate the church or room in which you hold your meeting.
Today is First Friday. I want you to circulate the message I gave to you on consecrating your homes to My Sacred Heart. Make booklets available for people to be able to consecrate their homes and businesses easily. Use the message I gave to you when you consecrated your home.
The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. Consecrate all homes and businesses to Our Two Hearts. Tell all to have displayed and honored, pictures of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. May and June are the months of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Tell all to consecrate their homes to Our Two Hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. On this day, the 5th of May, 1995, First Friday, I request that you spend the next two months encouraging all to do this consecration.
Gather your friends and say the prayers I have instructed you to say. Sing "To Jesus Heart All Burning" and "Immaculate Mary." May these Two Hearts of love give all members of the human race peace, joy and love in their hearts.
R. Jesus said He desires to be honored by men in the Blessed Sacrament.
Jesus speaks: Circulate the Blue Book messages. They promote this devotion. How My Heart is filled with happiness by the souls who come to the tabernacle and sit with Me. I am Jesus Christ, I wait and long and thirst for My precious souls to come. The souls of men have turned cold. I want souls to come to daily communion and be with Me in front of the tabernacle.
Men's hearts have turned cold. They do not know what love really means. I want hearts that are filled with fire for love of God. Men's hearts have turned to stone.
You are to promote devotion to My most Sacred Heart. I want hearts that burn with love for My Heart. It is through Me that you will know the Father's love. I am the Way, I am the Truth, I am the Life.
Offer a holy hour for the indifference, ingratitude, and sacrileges committed against Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the Sacrament of His greatest love.
R. He promises great graces to those who give reparation to His Sacred Heart and who tell others about offering reparation to Him.

Another Message
Messenger: Our
life is a spiritual battle
A choosing of Christ and doing
always God's will in love.
Do we honestly love as God desires
Do we give into human weaknesses.
In this season of Christmas we pray for
grace that people will embrace the
cross of Christ in realizing that the
incarnation goes on in us.
Why do we contemplate the birth of Jesus and
meditate on it so deeply
Christ the Divine God comes to earth the
Savior for our sins
When we fail to recognize that we
are sinners, we fail to recognize
truth
In dealing with our imperfections and
weaknesses, we recognize that we are
the poor banished children of Eve
tempted to give into jealousy and pride
and all the 7 deadly sins
We recognize our faults
We seek for renewal
We want to be molded in the image
and likeness of Jesus
We come from the pure and holy Immaculate
Heart of our Mother
There is a spiritual renewal
The Holy Spirit works more and more in
her Immaculate Heart to form
us more and more in the image and
likeness of Jesus
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.

Excerpt from December 4, 2004
Messenger: Dear
Jesus you are the King of our hearts
Again Jesus told me to go to the Cathedral
and light flashed from the left side of Jesus
over and over again and Jesus' mouth
moved as He appeared as Christ
the King.
He has been making me so aware of
His presence in the priest at
Mass and today He did not smile,
but His mouth moved as the
priest said the words at
the principle part of the Mass
the Light flashed over to the side
of His left hand where He
held the keys and Peter knelt.
It flashed across the front of Jesus
from left to right to His raised
hand, but to the side of where Peter
was it was all lit up then
proceeded across Jesus to the
right side....
I see the King, Jesus, appear
on His throne on First Friday and
First Saturday and First Saturday with flashes
of light from the keys in His hand
above Peter's head to His right
hand.

We desire to be more perfected as our heavenly Father.
We have a fallen human nature.
Our Lady is sinless.
Our Lady our spiritual mother
Our Lady the one who takes us to the Heart of Christ
there by we find the treasures of His
Magnificent Heart
It is in His Magnificent Heart
Christ takes us to the bosom of
the Father in the Holy Spirit.
The chain is like this the more we unite
and dwell in the Immaculate Heart
of Our Mother Mary the more she
takes us to the Heart of Jesus, there we
are one with the Father in the Holy Spirit.
We are all imperfect human creatures
Mary is the only sinless human person
conceived without sin
She is the singular vessel
We can see how we must choose to do
God's will and how it is necessary to discern
the spirits accurately so we do not follow
the evil one.
Mary is the spiritual mother, Mary the
Spouse of the Holy Spirit, Mary knows
about what is needed for her children to
follow God, to discern the spirits, to crush
the head of the serpent, to not give into
the temptations of sin.
God shows us in Genesis 3 the fall of
Adam and Eve God shows us about Cain and
Abel God shows us about the necessity
of cleaning the earth in the time of Noah and

Messenger:
The Savior is Jesus, The Son of God who
came and gave His life for our sins. Now
He appears in rainbow color, after first
Mary our Mother appeared there. When in
those special days before Christmas December 17-25.
The message prior to this Mary says, "I do
not appear as I once appeared."
Jesus speaks: When
one cries for food one can feast
on the senseless pleasures only to find that
they only leave you empty.
Do you not see the face, the suffering
face of the Savior. What would it have
meant to you if Mary appeared and they
put a sling shot pellet through her
eyes and mouth.
I know all things, I allow things to happen
Mary appeared to lead you to My Movement
to these messages I deliver. Contrary to what
some think, I am speaking to you today
Your world is on fine line I bring you
the weapon to fight satan the gifts
needed to help you see more clearly
Oh you senseless ones quit it I tell you
before it is too late (for some) you tarry
when My precious souls I died for are at
stake. They need these messages, you need
to support and help Me reach My chosen
ones with the message of My Heart and the
fruit of the Eucharist.
A garden I have planted in Clearwater
Florida, a garden to bring forth fruit for
My Kingdom. You give into the devil to divide
you, many prepare many things for their
earthly journey I tell you to stop it
prepare your hearts for your heavenly journey.
Reach to have deeper love in your hearts.
Recognize your faults don't lie to yourselves
and stay stuck in your ways.
Look at the beauty of the gifts I
have given to you.
December 20, 2004 message continues
Jesus speaks: Trust in Me and let Me
make the pathway
clear before your eyes
pray to quiet your fears and to operate
on My path
Many are prideful, they give into satan
satan tries to keep them in a hole and they give
in.
A garden was planted with beautiful flowers
and fresh fruit and one because of
pride and jealousy hoed the beautiful
plants down because they were not
their own.
The garden was given, the joy could have
been theirs, the fruit was for them
but they destroyed it because of pride and
wanting to do it their way.
How many bridges are burned by My leaders
because they want a new bridge, a new
way, when the old bridge was beautiful
and functional.
Pride is a sad thing You can look at Eve and
see how so many are effected.
If one person is following a wrong spirit and
it is pointed out to them, many times
how indignant they become and because
of pride some proceed even stronger
into the way ward path just to
prove they are right and not be
told anything.
All spiritual directors should be deeply
dwelling in the Heart of the spiritual
mother. Mary crushes the head of the serpent.
When you dwell in My Heart and Mary's Heart
you know more the will of the Father.
Doing the will of God is the key.
Discerning the spirits to know what is the
will of God is vital.
So many think they are always right and that
is how damage can be done.
Excerpt of The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. pp. 141-146
313. RULES FOR DISCERNMENT OF SPIRITS
I
Rules for understanding to some extent the different movements produced in the soul and for recognizing those that are good to admit them, and those that are bad, to reject them. These rules are more suited to the first week
314. I. In the case of those who go from one mortal sin to another, the enemy is ordinarily accustomed to propose apparent pleasures. He fills their imagination with sensual delights and gratifications, the more readily to keep them in their vices and increase the number of their sins.
With such persons the good spirit uses a method which is the reverse of the above. Making use of the light of reason, he will rouse the sting of conscience and fill them with remorse.
315. 2. In the case of those who go on earnestly striving to cleanse their souls from sin and who seek to rise in the service of God our Lord to greater perfection, the method pursued is the opposite of that mentioned in the first rule.
Then it is characteristic of the evil spirit to harass with anxiety, to afflict with sadness, to raise obstacles backed by fallacious reasonings that disturb the soul. Thus he seeks to prevent the soul from advancing.
It is characteristic of the good spirit, however, to give courage and strength, consolations, tears, inspirations, and peace. This He does by making all easy, by removing all obstacles so that the soul goes forward in doing good.
316. 3. SPIRITUAL CONSOLATION. I call it consolation when an interior movement is aroused in the soul, by which it is inflamed with love of its Creator and Lord, and as a consequence, can love no creature on the face of the earth for its own sake, but only in the Creator of them all. It is likewise consolation when one sheds tears that move to the love of God, whether it be because of sorrow for sins, or because of the sufferings of Christ our Lord, or for any other reason that is immediately directed to the praise and service of God. Finally, I call consolation every increase of faith, hope, and love, and all interior joy that invites and attracts to what is heavenly and to the salvation of one's soul by filling it with peace and quiet in its Creator and Lord.
317. 4. SPIRITUAL DESOLATION. I call desolation what is entirely the opposite of what is described in the third rule, as darkness of soul, turmoil of spirit, inclination to what is low and earthly, restlessness rising from many disturbances and temptations which lead to want of faith, want of hope, want of love. The soul is wholly slothful, tepid, sad, and separated, as it were, from its Creator and Lord. For just as consolation is the opposite of desolation, so the thoughts that spring from consolation are the opposite of those that spring from desolation.
318. 5. In time of desolation we should never make any change, but remain firm and constant in the resolution and decision which guided us the day before the desolation, or in the decision to which we adhered in the preceding consolation. For just as in consolation the good spirit guides and counsels us, so in desolation the evil spirit guides and counsels. Following his counsels we can never find the way to a right decision.
319. 6. Though in desolation we must never change our former resolutions, it will be very advantageous to intensify our activity against the desolation. We can insist more upon prayer, upon meditation, and on much examination of ourselves. We can make an effort in a suitable way to do some penance.
320. 7. When one is in desolation, he should be mindful that God has left him to his natural powers to resist the different agitations and temptations of the enemy in order to try him. He can resist with the help of God, which always remains, though he may not clearly perceive it. For though God has taken from him the abundance of fervor and overflowing love and the intensity of His favors, nevertheless, he has sufficient grace for eternal salvation.
321. 8. When one is in desolation, he should strive to persevere in patience. This reacts against the vexations that have overtaken him. Let him consider, too, that consolation will soon return, and in the meantime, he must diligently use the means against desolation which have been given in the sixth rule.
322. 9. The principal reasons why we suffer from desolation are three:
The first is because we have been tepid and slothful or negligent in our exercises of piety, and so through our own fault spiritual consolation has been taken away from us.
The second reason is because God wishes to try us, to see how much we are worth, and how much we will advance in His service and praise when left without the generous reward of consolations and signal favors.
The third reason is because God wishes to give us a true knowledge and understanding of ourselves, so that we may have an intimate perception of the fact that it is not within our power to acquire and attain great devotion, intense love, tears, or any other spiritual consolation; but that all this is the gift and grace of God our Lord. God does not wish us to build on the property of another, to rise up in spirit in a certain pride and vainglory and attribute to ourselves the devotion and other effects of spiritual consolation.
323. 10. When one enjoys consolation, let him consider how he will conduct himself during the time of ensuing desolation, and store up a supply of strength as defense against that day.
324. 11. He who enjoys consolation should take care to humble himself and lower himself as much as possible. Let him recall how little he is able to do in time of desolation, when he is left without such grace or consolation.
On the other hand, one who suffers desolation should remember that by making use of the sufficient grace offered him, he can do much to withstand all his enemies. Let him find his strength in his Creator and Lord.
325. 12. The enemy conducts himself as a woman. He is a weakling before a show of strength, and a tyrant if he has his will. It is characteristic of a woman in a quarrel with a man to lose courage and take to flight if the man shows that he is determined and fearless. However, if the man loses courage and begins to flee, the anger, vindictiveness, and rage of the woman surge up and know no bounds. In the same way, the enemy becomes weak, loses courage, and turns to flight with his seductions as soon as one leading a spiritual life faces his temptations boldly, and does exactly the opposite of what he suggests. However, if one begins to be afraid and to lose courage in temptations, no wild animal on earth can be more fierce than the enemy of our human nature. He will carry out his perverse intentions with consummate malice.
326. 13. Our enemy may also be compared in his manner of acting to a false lover. He seeks to remain hidden and does not want to be discovered. If such a lover speaks with evil intention to the daughter of a good father, or to the wife of a good husband, and seeks to seduce them, he wants his words and solicitations kept secret. He is greatly displeased if his evil suggestions and depraved intentions are revealed by the daughter to her father, or by the wife to her husband. Then he readily sees he will not succeed in what he has begun. In the same way, when the enemy of our human nature tempts a just soul with his wiles and seductions, he earnestly desires that they be received secretly and kept secret. But if one manifests them to a confessor, or to some other spiritual person who understands his deceits and malicious designs, the evil one is very much vexed. For he knows that he cannot succeed in his evil undertaking, once his evident deceits have been revealed.
327. 14. The conduct of our enemy may also be compared to the tactics of a leader intent upon seizing and plundering a position he desires. A commander and leader of an army will encamp, explore the fortifications and defenses of the stronghold, and attack at the weakest point. In the same way, the enemy of our human nature investigates from every side all our virtues, theological, cardinal, and moral. Where he finds the defenses of eternal salvation weakest and most deficient, there he attacks and tries to take us by storm.

The Magnificat
And Mary said:
My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
from their thrones
and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
of Israel his servant,
mindful of his faithful love
according to the promise
he made to our ancestors
of his mercy to Abraham
and to his descendants for ever.

mouth moving, He was in excruciating
pain, I cried and could hardly stand
it.From a previous daily message:
I saw Him at the point of death on the cross
December 5, 1996, after Mary appeared 500 times.He hung, all battered, greatly weakened. His mouth moved very clearly. It seems that a man in His condition could not move His mouth to that extent.
Later in the rosary that night, He gave messages and said: "No one was listening."

Today the Feast of St. Xavier,
First Friday, Jesus appeared to me
as the King on His Throne at the
Cathedral where He told me to go
to Church.He was smiling and His
mouth moved and moved and moved.
He looked happy and the vision was
all aglow. He gave me a message to sit
in the first pew and He appeared
and talked about 20 minutes, He
was smiling.
May God bless you in this
most beautiful season.With lots of love and thanks,
Rita
