From the cross — Jesus heard me whisper
"I love you Jesus" YES - Yes

Jesus speaks:            As I hung on the cross, I heard
                            the whispering of your voice to Me
                            "I love you Jesus"

                            When others were cold - treating Me
                                without a personal love
                                relationship - I heard your
                                voice to Me.

                            You said
                                "I love you, Jesus"
                                "I love your souls, Jesus"
                                "I want to be with you in heaven
                                    in deepest love, Jesus"

Others were so busy, not giving a
thought to Me and

                                You came before the Eucharist and
                            I knew how hard you were working
                            trying to love and be good and you looked
                            like crying sometimes and then you
                            looked at the exposed Eucharist and
                            said
                                "I love you, Jesus, help me, Jesus
                                I want Your help" and I saw
                                you - looking tired and feeling
                                so wounded sometimes because
                                you wanted the world to be good and
                                love Me and
                                then you would cry and say

                                "Oh Jesus can't You help us now -
                            I want the world to know You and love
                            You, but Jesus only You can do this" and
                            you would look at the Exposed host
                            and cry some more and say

                                "Oh Jesus I love you so much —
                                    You are everything to me —
                                Jesus - help me do this —
                                    please Jesus help me"

                            and then you would try to do things to
                            help spread My gospel and My love
                            and tell people about the Eucharist and
                            the consecration and people were
                            always in a hurry wanting to do
                            their "busy" things and — sometimes
                            things were hard to do and you tried and tried
                            and talked to me and

                            then I heard you say —
                            "But Jesus, I do it all for You Jesus,
                            I love You so much Jesus, help me
                            please"

                                And I hung on the cross and I saw
                            you there today struggling and sometimes
                            crying in desperation and I heard you
                            whisper "I love you Jesus" and
                            you were faithful to Me and I saw
                            it — I saw and loved your faithfulness
                            and it comforted Me when I was bleeding
                            and so wounded on the cross.

                                I heard you say and never afraid to
                                say it "I love you Jesus, I want
                            to be in heaven with you someday
                            in the deepest love —

                                Help me Jesus I want to do this
                            work for You and I want souls to be
                            good like the Father wants and get to
                            heaven" and I heard you say as I
                            hung on the cross — knowing many
                            would listen

"I love You Jesus"

                            And you never stopped trying
                            with enthusiasm you did it —
                            with energy and love — not worrying
                            who rejected you and

                                then some came and argued with you —
                                tried you over and over again and
                                you kept doing it anyway saying

"I love you, Jesus"

                            Then you kissed My pierced feet
                                on the crucifix and gazed
                                at My wounded side and

                            No matter what happened — you
                                never quit for the sake of My precious
                                souls —

                                I knew you would do this today
                            in all the sin and rejection and
                            arguments —

                                You would keep on — keeping on,
                            sometimes crying, but saying
                                "I love You Jesus"

                            And to others, many - you were never good
                                enough - you were judged and persecuted
                                but you kept on saying

                            "I love You Jesus, strengthen me, help me
                                give me grace - Jesus I need you"
                                "Not by my might God
                                only You can do this"

                            And I hung to My death seeing
                                My precious souls — knowing
                                you loved them so much too and
                                you would beg Me to help you do
                                what the Father wanted of the
                                human race for the sake of souls -
                                then you cried

                            "I love You Jesus —
                                please help me
                                strength me
                                I love You so much"

                                When you thought you were doing
                            something wrong — you wanted to
                            change it to do the right thing —
                            you prayed for this and

                                I heard you talk. You said to God the Father and
                            to Me and to the Holy Spirit — "I
                            love you so much!!"

Mary's Message
from the Rosary of August 27, 1996

Mary speaks: I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.

Help us please --

Love,

Rita

                            Think of reaching all these priests
                                and bishops and watching them
                                respond.

                                You know God has called us to live
                            deeply the spiritual life -- Living that
                            means we may feel like we are run
                            over by a truck and we still have
                            to serve God and build up His Kingdom.
                            When Christmas may be a time of joy
                            for many - some will suffer enormously --
                            suffering is a part of life.

                                In using these prayers - God
                            can help people cope with the
                            sufferings they are asked to endure.

Fr. Pasquini editor of
the Priestly Newsletter and author --

Messenger:           has written some 15 books, writes
                            in the Florida Catholic, Sunday
                            Visitor, but what he has to tell
                            us can help change all our lives.

                                This prayer book can help to
                            transform us all and the lives
                            of those deeply suffering.

My daughter did this picture when
she was 15 almost 16.

Messenger:               Fr. Pasquini had this picture
                            professionally done for the book
                           In Imitation of Two Hearts.

Messenger:               My daughter much older now designed
                            the cover of this book 11 years later
                            around the picture Fr. Pasquini had
                            professionally done.

Here are some prayers from
this book.

Resting in God

Only in You, Lord, will I find rest.

I desired happiness, yet recognized that life comes

with suffering?

I searched high and low for meaning and purpose.

I sought it in power, and found it fleeting, disappointing, poisonous and empty.

I sought fame, and found it paralyzing and self-absorbing.

I sought fortune, and found it addictive and never enough.

****

I chased and chased and chased till I could no longer chase.

I was conquered.

And in this conquest, I was given victory;

for in You I found my peace.

Amidst hatred, You gave me the gift of forgiveness.

Amidst injury, You gave me patience.

Amidst doubt, You gave me insight.

Amidst sadness, You gave me hope.

Amidst depression, You gave me consolation.

Amidst greed, You gave me generosity.

Amidst apathy, You gave me empathy.

Amidst all of life’s trials and tribulations, You give me that taste of happiness, peace, and contentment that finds its ultimate fulfillment in heaven.

Only in You, O Lord, do I find rest.

Failures

O Lord, grant me the grace to accept the failures and lost opportunities of the past.

Grant me the humility to accept that I am no longer

the provider, but the one that needs to be provided for.

May my sorrows and grief be moments of freedom and detachment in order to receive the gift of Your peace.

Grace me with the gift of working through my anguish and anxiety, of fulfilling my capacity to accomplish Your will—even when Your will is difficult to perceive.

Numb

I feel weak, numb, thin.

My self-esteem has been damaged.

I cannot smile.

I am no longer what I was.

I feel overwhelmed with a sense of loss and depression.

My financial and physical burdens are overwhelming

and dismaying.

I miss my children, my spouse, my life as it was.

What does the future hold?

Will I see my old age?

Will my job be there for me?

Are all my future dreams a thing of the past?

What will happen to my family?

What has my suffering brought upon others?

May I see my difficulties as a means of appreciating the truly important things of life.
