A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb
the Bridegroom of the soul

    Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.

Messenger:         Prayer meeting     Florida January 5

  

                            Why do I live?

                            I live to love God and to love others

                                and to develop myself to be more

                                likened to God.

                            Everyday we must discern whether what

                                we are doing is what God wants us

                                to do.

                            We need all things in balance.

                            When people tell us what to do against

                                what we want — and we have a

                                responsibility to fill — we must

                                accept the responsibility in

                                acting honestly and truthfully

                                according to God's will.

                            A person should not blame others unjustly —

                                for things they have not done, because

                                we don't feel good ourselves.

                            All our actions should be done in truth.

                                Sometimes people say things to be

                                talking. Everything we say and do

                                affects others, we must always

                                speak the truth, we must not give

                                into a desire to be recognized and

                                speak untruths.

                            We are to be just.

Jesus speaks:    Today I give you My Movement, Shepherds of Christ.

                          Today I ask you to focus on your job

                              as members of the Shepherds of Christ.

                           The Apostles, Servants and Handmaids

                               see their life as intercessors praying deeply 

                               for the priests, the Church and the world.

                           Servants and handmaids give their lives in

                           a special way for this purpose, living every 

                               day to work and pray.

                               Living in the truth is most important.

                           What is the truth about the Catholic faith?

                           It is the one true Church.

                           It is Apostolic.

                           One expects to go to the Catholic Church

                               and be taught the truth.

                           I want you to focus on truth.

                           That you always speak in the truth.

                           That leaders, servants and handmaids

                           and apostles speak in the truth always —

                           You are to speak, when speaking for the

                           Shepherds of Christ from the discerned materials.

                          All the materials given on this web-site

                          and in books have been discerned by a 

                          Catholic priest.

                              Now today, I ask you to live in love.

                          I ask you to pray for purity. There are

                          sufferings on earth. You will have to suffer.

                              In the Shepherds of Christ I have taught you 

                          the way of life. I call you together for special prayer

                          at least three times of the month, the 5th, the 13th,

                          the Sidney Rosary.

                              I want you to pray at these times very

                          deeply for the priests, the Church and the world.

                          Some may come to get renewal for themselves, only

                          but they miss the overall calling of the Shepherds 

                          of Christ on these dates to give of themselves in 

                          praise and prayer in love of God and to pray for

                          the people of the earth, the Church and the

                          world.

                              To be a member of the Shepherds of Christ 

                          in the apostle, servant, handmaid level is to

                          understand very deeply your role as Shepherds

                          of Christ, to live a life of service in which

                          you say the morning offering daily and offer

                          your whole day, your lives for the priests, the

                          Church and the world.

                              You are a small remnant that lives this

                          way. You honor Me. You daily (servants, 

                          handmaids and apostles) pray the 6:20 prayers

                          preferably at 6:20, but at least sometime

                          during the day. Your prayer life is very

                          important.

                              Service, retreats in China, Indiana are

                          for this purpose, for personal instruction, to

                          be a Shepherd of Christ praying to lead

                          the strayed ones, home to My Heart.

                              I am pleased with your prayers and

                          your life given as Shepherds of Christ.

                              I want deep commitment from more

                          people on these days of prayer. Don't

                          underestimate the importance of this prayer

                          when you are gathered on these days and

                          your daily prayers you do.

                              Some people are looking for things

                          to stimulate them, Some are looking

                          for false gods —

                              In this troubled world, I ask  you

                          to be a Shepherd of Christ to give your life praying

                          for the priests, the Church and the world.

                              Your life is for your renewal, but

                          you cease to see the mission I call you

                          to when you don't focus on this

                          special calling of giving your life to

                          pray deeply for the priests, the Church

                          and the world.

                              The prayer service in China and

                          Clearwater, Florida and the Sidney

                          service are very important to the world,

                          the priests and the Church because you

                          pray deeply for them, you pray united.

                          Sub-Centers are to stay united each month

                          on these special prayer services. Doris

                          is to call and remind them.

                              Your life is lived as a Shepherd of Christ to

                          help lead the strayed ones home to

                          My Heart.

                              In these days after Christmas Day until

                          the Epiphany focus on your mission as

                          Shepherds of Christ to give this service to the 

                          priests, the Church and the world to pray deeply

                          for them especially on these dates, to pray

                          united as one body 5th, 13th, to be announced.

                              Service is a very important part of the

                          Shepherds of Christ Movement. This prayer

                          is most important.
