Revelations on the Light

Isaiah 30: 19-26:

Yes, people of Zion living in Jerusalem,
you will weep no more.
He will be gracious to you when your cry for help rings out;
as soon as he hears it, he will answer you.
When the Lord has given you the bread of suffering
and the water of distress,
he who is your teacher will hide no longer,
and you will see your teacher with your own eyes.
Your ears will hear these words behind you,
'This is the way, keep to it,' whether you turn to right or left.
You will hold unclean the silver platting of your idols
and gold plating of your images.
You will throw them away like the polluted things they are,
shouting after them, 'Good riddance!'
He will send rain for the seed you sow in the ground,
and the bread that the ground provides will be rich and nourishing.
That day, your cattle will graze in wide pastures.
Oxen and donkeys that work the land
will eat for fodder wild sorrel,
spread by the shovel-load and fork-load.
On every lofty mountain, on every high hill
there will be streams and water-courses, on the day of the great slaughter
when the strongholds fall.
Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-
on the day Yahweh dresses his people's wound
and heals the scars of the blows have received."

Isaiah 40:1-8:

'Console my people, console them,'
says your God.
'Speak to the heart of Jerusalem
and cry to her
that her period of service is ended,
that her guilt has been atoned for,
that, from the hand of Yahweh, she has received
double punishment for all her sins.'
A voice cries, 'Prepare in the desert
a way for Yahweh.
Make a straight highway for our God
across the wastelands.
Let every valley be filled in,
every mountain and hill be leveled,
every cliff become a plateau,
every escarpment a plain;
then the glory of Yahweh will be revealed
and all humanity will see it together,
for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken.'
A voice said, 'Cry aloud!' and I said, 'What shall I cry?'
-'All humanity is grass
and all its beauty like the wild flower's.
The grass withers, the flower fades
when the breath of Yahweh blows on them.
(The grass is surely the people.)
The grass withers, the flower fades,
but the word of our God remains for ever.'

Song: A Voice Cries Out in the Wilderness

R. Adam and Eve are given great gifts and insights into God. They sin, the light of knowing God is dimmed because of their sin. They do not know God as they did before the sin.

Christ comes, He is the Light of the World. He dies, He gives Himself. He shares His life with us through sanctifying grace.

Through Baptism we receive this sharing in His divine life. The more He shares His life, the more we are saturated with His life, the more we know Him. He reveals Himself to us--we see the light.

The Kingdom of God is at hand. It is all here: the Mass, the Eucharist, God giving Himself.

To partake more in His life we must give ourselves to Him.

Mary appears to Bernadette. She tells her she is the "Immaculate Conception." We are sinners, but through Mary, the pure and sinless one, we can unite deeply in Him.

We are in darkness in varying degrees. The more we are saturated with His life, the more we see.

The reign of God is at hand. Since He came to the earth, everything is in place to see the light.

God is giving to us great graces to see the light now. He is lifting the veil.

There will be the era of peace.

Isaiah 30:26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."

We see the darkness. As at night, we do not see the colorful leaves, they are there, we do not see them.

In the morning light, we see the glory of the beautiful day, the colorful leaves.

As the light steals across the sky, we see more and more. As the sun gradually comes up, we see more clearly the beauty of the leaves.

At first, our vision is not so clear because the light does not show in its deepest intensity. As the sun comes up we see more and more vividly until finally we see clearly the beauty of the colorful leaves.

Isaiah 30:26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."

In a message to Fr. Carter on July 31, 1994, Jesus has promised us: "I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

As stated above, the more we are saturated with his life, the more we are one in Him, the more clearly we see. It is in this union, in the depth of His Heart, that we receive such life, that we know Him with great clarity, that we are given this vision of God.

It is not with "eyes" that we see, but the illumination is in the knowing power that He gives to us. He reveals insights into the divine mysteries. We share most intimately with Him when we are one with Him in the Mass and after Communion. These are treasured moments in which He gives us a special sharing to know Him, our Divine Lover.

We see clearly when our hearts are hearts of love. We see vividly when our hearts are filled with love and peace. We were created to love, to love God and love each other.

Adam and Eve sinned. They lost the great gift given to them. The light of knowing God was dimmed because of their sin.

Christ comes into the world. He is the Word. He is the light of the world. He comes to save man from his sin. He comes in the womb of the Virgin Mary. Mary is the pure and sinless one. Jesus comes to pay the price for the sin of Adam and for our sins. We are all tainted by this sin of our first father and mother. Mary is the Immaculate and pure one, the highest human person. Divinity unites with humanity in the womb of Mary. They are one. Jesus is carried within the body of His mother. Such unity from the beginning, for His life is formed within her body. Is it surprising to us, then, if Christ comes within the womb of the Virgin Mary, that we too must go through Mary to unite to Him? Where is the pride in the hearts of men that think they do not have to go through their Mother Mary? If Christ comes in the womb of Mary to pay the price for man's sins, and we are tainted by the sin, in order to unite to the Almighty God who is all holy, we must go through the pure and sinless one.

Adam and Eve sinned. The Father sends His Son into the world to pay the price for man's sins. Jesus is the New Adam; Mary is the New Eve. Man continues to sin, greatly displeasing God. The Father allows Mary to appear to Bernadette at Lourdes as the Immaculate Conception, as having been conceived without original sin. The Father then allows Mary to appear to the children of Fatima as the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

We are sinners, we cannot unite closely to Him unless we go through Mary.

Mary is the pure and sinless one. We can unite deeply to Him. We are in darkness in varying degrees. The more we are saturated with His life, the more we see.

The reign of God is at hand. He came to the earth, He died, He rose on the third day. He gave to the Apostles the power to change bread and wine into His Body and Blood. He gave to them the power to forgive sins. He established His Church pouring forth from His pierced side. We do not see the great gifts that He has given to us. He is giving to us great insights into these gifts. God is giving to us great graces to see the light now. He is lifting the veil.

There will be an era of peace and all will see with such light as Isaiah speaks of in chapter 30, verse 26:

"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."

Man sinned. Jesus came to redeem us. Man is still so sinful. Mary appears at Fatima. She tells us that we are offending God, that we must make reparation to her heart and the heart of her Son.

She gives us the peace plan for the world. She tells us that the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and her Immaculate Heart will triumph but we must do what she says. The Church has approved Fatima. The devil has blocked the message. How can we disobey our Mother? How can we ignore her? Mary appeared at Fatima and was ignored. Mary appeared to me almost daily for 14 months--she does not appear as she once did. Jesus has told me that He will handle these messages, that He is in charge, that the plan of the Father will unfold despite any person's willfulness.

In August 1996, Mary spoke in the rosary: she said she could not hold back the hand of her Son any longer. On the 5th of this month, instead of Mary appearing as she had in the past, Jesus appeared alive on the crucifix with His mouth moving for twenty minutes. We are not listening to Mary or to Jesus. Man has sinned. Jesus came to redeem us. Mary tells us what we must do. Men are disobedient. They disobeyed their Mother. They do not do what she told them what they must do at Fatima. When hearts are consecrated to Jesus and Mary they become holy hearts, deeply one with God. The reign of the Sacred Heart is at hand for He has given to us abundant grace that we are seeing with such clarity this vision of God. He has imparted to us understanding into His divine mysteries.

The more we focus on what Jesus and Mary have told us, the more we will have peace. He is angered by the willfulness of man. He will get their attention. We are spreading the good news when we spread the consecration.

We must heed the words of our Mother. She will not go away because of willful men. We have angered God more by ignoring her. There is only one way: it is the plan that Mary has given to us at Fatima. He is lifting the veil for those whose hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Many in the Shepherds of Christ Movement are fervently loving Him. In the Shepherds of Christ Movement, as the apostles spread the consecration to the Church, the family, and the school, the fire of His love will cover the earth and it will be lighted with this love coming from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph.

We, in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, are spreading the fire of His love across the earth through the consecration.

The hearts of men will turn from their sick and desolate ways to hearts gentle as a little lamb. There will be one flock and one Shepherd and His staff will rule over all. Hearts consecrated to Their Hearts will lead the light across the earth. This light will be a light of intense brightness, brighter and hotter than any light from a flame. It will be the fire of God's love. The Spirit will move in all hearts consecrated to His Heart, and we will know how fire truly spreads, for the love of God is a fire, it is vibrant, it is encompassing, it is smoldering, burning deep within and speedily spreading on the outside. No fires on this earth can ever describe the burning embers that burn from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. No fire burns like the fires coming from His Heart and hearts filled with the love from the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

On October 13, 1917 Our Lady gave to Lucia and 70,000 spellbound people, a great vision: the sun spun in the sky, casting off great lights. This happened three times in about 12 minutes. As quoted from Our Lady of Fatima's Peace Plan from Heaven:

It seemed that the whole world was on fire with the sun spinning at a greater speed each time. Then a gasp of terror rose from the crowd for the sun seemed to tear itself from the heavens and come crashing down upon the horrified multitudes...just when it seemed that the ball of fire would fall upon and destroy them, the miracle ceased, and the sun resumed its normal place in the sky, shining forth as peacefully as ever.

Mary gave this tremendous sign at Fatima and people did not listen. The events that followed were as she had predicted since we disobeyed her. There was a brutal war, WWII. Mary appeared to me almost daily - very few have listened. She told me over and over again of the souls going to hell. She told me in August she could not hold back the hand of her Son anymore. Adam and Eve sinned. God, the Father, sent His Son. Man continues to sin--the Father sends Mary but she is ignored!

On July 2, 1996, my son, Joseph, was taking pictures of all of the Shepherds of Christ members at Tom Arlinghaus' farm. He took one picture of each person. Jesus told me to tell him to take two pictures of Fr. Carter. The first picture was a normal picture. The second picture was of Fr. Carter covered with a pillar of light.

In front of a statue of Our Sorrowful Mother, Mary was alive in the statue.

Jesus: "Peace will bound when nations, churches, families, and individuals are consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The Shepherds of Christ Movement...is a pillar of light in the darkness."

R. We must encourage all to consecrate their hearts to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to join the Shepherds of Christ chapters, and the Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus Movement, to pray for our Church and our world.

Jesus: This is My Movement for renewal of the Church and the world, based in consecration, joining your every act to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, praying the rosary, and making reparation to Our Hearts, especially on first Fridays and first Saturday. It is through your prayers and sacrifices many souls will be saved. Grace will flow from those whose hearts are consecrated to Our Hearts and the fire of My love will light up this darkened world.

R. Many are living in darkness because they are not obeying Our Lady. The people will see the light when they obey her and consecrate their hearts to her heart and the Heart of Jesus.

To have this intense union with Jesus, with God, we must give ourselves to Our Lady. It is there in the intimacy with Him that we are saturated with His life and that He reveals to us great lights, great insights into His divine mysteries. Yes, indeed, the light will steel across the earth and the hearts of men will be hearts filled with His love. They will know their God with great light imparted to them by the Holy Spirit given to them because of the deep union that they have with Jesus. The reign of the Sacred Heart is at hand. He is giving to us these great lights at this time for He has lifted the veil and we see many things and the light steals across the sky and we see with clear vision.

Isaiah 30: 26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."

Isaiah 30: 25:
"On every lofty mountain, on every high hill
there will be streams and water-courses, on the day of the great slaughter
when the strongholds fall."

Truly His Heart is the fountain of divine life. It flows through the Church, through the hands of His holy priests. When priests are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and celebrating the Mass, and administering the sacraments, an immense amount of His grace will be outpoured on the earth.

A people in darkness have seen a great light. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, the Light of the World!

Our Father...thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. We will all love as the Father intends, for now He looks to the earth and He sees it covered with darkness. As hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the earth will be covered with His light.

Revelation 12:1-12:

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. She was pregnant, and in labor, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth. Then a second sign appeared in the sky: there was a huge red dragon with seven heads and ten horns, and each of the seven heads crowned with a coronet. Its tail swept a third of the stars from the sky and hurled them to the ground, and the dragon stopped in front of the woman as she was at the point of giving birth, so that he could eat the child as soon as it was born. The woman was delivered of a boy, the Son who was to rule all the nations with an iron scepter, and the child was taken straight up to God and to his throne, while the woman escaped into the desert, where God had prepared a place for her to be looked after for twelve hundred and sixty days.

And now war broke out in heaven, when Michael with his angels attacked the dragon. The dragon fought back with his angels, but they were defeated and driven out of heaven. The great dragon, the primeval serpent, known as the devil or Satan, who had led all the world astray, was hurled down to the earth and his angels were hurled down with him. Then I heard a voice shout from heaven, 'Salvation and power and empire for ever have been won by our God, and all authority for his Christ, now that the accuser, who accused our brothers day and night before our God, has been brought down. They have triumphed over him by the blood of the lamb and by the word to which they bore witness, because even in the face of death they did not cling to life. So let the heavens rejoice and all who live there; but for you, earth and sea, disaster is coming-because the devil has gone down to you in a rage, knowing that he has little time left.'

We are in her spiritual womb (heart). She is pregnant, bringing forth her children of light. As we go to her heart, she crushes the head of the serpent. Some of the brightest stars that will light up the earth are in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. We are the children of light. We are being sent forth as she brings us forth her children of light to stamp out the darkness. We must give ourselves to Mary.

Bombing of Pearl Harbor

70th Anniversary

                R. Book of Wisdom

                "How lovely is your dwelling place,
                    Oh Lord God of Hosts"

                R. Truth is love —

                Be authentic —

                A face of purity —

                A heart of love.

                The Church with Vatican Council II
                    has put a new spin in focusing
                    in a funeral on the resurrection —

                The funeral has the Pascal Candle at the
                    funeral —

                We focus on the life to come —

                Our readings focus on the life to come.

                Jesus was trying to get them
                    ready in the Gospel when
                    He would go —

                Do not let your hearts be troubled.

                The Apostles had given up their
                    careers — given up everything
                    to come and follow Jesus —

                Have faith in Me — Jesus says —

                The Greeks wanted the Jews to
                    give up their faith and follow
                    the Greek gods —
                    Some were put to death —

                The Jews thought if they did
                    everything God wants then
                    they wouldn't suffer —

                So we see that isn't true —
                    God's Plan for us is to be
                        happy and be with Him
                        forever —

                Our Citizenship is in heaven —
                Our home is to be with God —

                We are on a journey to the eternal
                    life that God created us
                    for —

                God intended us to go to heaven
                    with Him forever —

                Jesus died for us and shed His
                    Blood for our sins —

                One day Jesus will come and knock
                    on our door.
                    Are we ready —

                God raised Jesus from the dead —
                    Oh God thank You for baptism —
                    Oh God thank You for the Eucharist
                    Oh God we adore You,
                    Oh God we love You,
                    Oh God we thank You,
                    Oh God we worship You in faith,
                    Oh God we petition You.

                Oh God cleanse us of our sins —
                    Grant us the fullness of
                        redemption —

                Sing: We Walk by Faith

We pray Oh God —
    We love you —

                From Blue Book 7

Fear to Fearlessness

                R. I see the fear in the Apostles. Peter
                denied Jesus 3 times. Now the Apostles
                are fearless — Peter stands up for
                Jesus. Peter cures the cripple
                in the name of Jesus.

                    The Spirit is upon us, let us rejoice.
                Let us beg Him to transform us from
                fear to fearlessness. Alleluia, we
                are His witnesses, Jesus has died, He
                has risen and He will come again.

                Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. He leaves
                the Apostles behind to carry out His
                work. To carry on what He started. Living
                the mystery of His life, death and
                resurrection in their lives, in the Church.
                They killed Jesus, He rose from the dead,
                now Peter and John heal the crippled
                man in the name of Jesus.

                We too can do wonders in the name of
                Jesus. He is calling us to spread His
                love, we are fearful as the Apostles,
                we need the Holy Spirit to transform
                us from fear to fearlessness. Alleluia.
                Praise God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit Alleluia.

                April 21, 1995 - 3:00a.m. Friday

                R. Waken with terrible cramps in my feet and legs, especially left leg, pulling up from my feet.

                Jesus: Pray for souls, My beloved at this 3 o'clock
                hour, I beg you from My pierced and
                wounded Heart to pray for the souls.

                Pray for the souls in purgatory. I
                beg you My beloved, souls will be lost
                and condemned to hell. Pray at 3 o'clock,
                this is the hour of My greatest mercy.
                How I suffered for My dear ones and
                they were rebellious and willful
                sinning mortally and not repenting.
                I call you at the 3 o'clock hour to pray
                the Divine Mercy, morning and night
                whenever possible, to stop what you
                are doing and call on My Father to
                pour out His mercy at this hour. Meditate
                on My Passion. Blood and Water poured
                fourth from My side, I give to you My
                Church, pray for the priest and all
                those who minister in the Church,
                pray at the 3 o'clock hour, pray the
                Divine Mercy Chaplet, beg the Father
                for Mercy, this is the hour of My greatest mercy,
                pray for mercy for the souls of your
                brothers, those that are lukewarm, those
                that are suffering and in pain for their own
                willfulness, those who resist the light
                I give to them. Pray My beloved ones for it
                is at 3 o'clock I pour out My great
                mercy to souls.

                "For the sake of His sorrowful passion have
                    mercy on us and on the whole world."

                Read December 18, 1993 explain it and
                Say the Divine Mercy.

Take Up Your Cross

December 18, 1993

Jesus: Pain? Oh, how I suffered! The pain was so intense, I could hardly bear it. I was so wounded and so covered with blood. Think of a little gash and how it hurts when it begins to bleed. I bled and I bled all over. Such intense pain. Every time you experience pain, think of Me and how minute your little pain is. There was not a place on My body that was not covered with blood. There were deep wounds all over Me. My head throbbed from the crown they had placed on Me and I was forced to carry a big cross so heavy, I scarce could move it on My shoulder. My shoulder ached so badly I felt as if it was constantly breaking by the weight of the cross. But I carried it and pushed on My way. If I stopped, I was poked and pushed and hit. The crowd jeered and they forced Me on My way. What crime had I committed? Why was I forced to endure such torture? It was out of love of you that I continued that journey. I was God. I could have stopped at any moment. I was obedient to death to the demands of My Father.

Pain, child? I suffered so much for love of you! This is how I love you at this moment. In all that befalls you you must know at every moment that I know exactly what you are suffering. There is nothing that happens in your life without My consent and it comes from Him Who loves you.

Take your crosses and truly endure them. Accept them. Know that everything that happens in your life I have allowed. Accept it with the love with which I give it. You are being taught in that pain. You are suffering for yourselves and others. I endured all that pain. Did I once say, "Father, take it away?" I am your model. I showed you the way. I took it all, every last wound, every kick and smack and vileness. I took My cross and I carried it without a word. This is what I ask of you. Know that when you are experiencing pain or suffering, or being taunted by those around you, look to the Master for your course of action. I took it all, every last wound, and accepted it to My death. I did not say, "Oh, how awful." I did not complain. I walked in silence that bumpy road with a heavy cross, with My mother suffering by My side and I never complained. I accepted it all for love of you.

Carry your crosses, little ones. They are gifts from Me. Do not look for an explanation or a way to get rid of them. I will take them when I think you have had enough. It is in suffering that you experience My life more fully. It is in suffering that I speak to you in a special way. Endure it. I know every ache and pain you are experiencing. I am this close to you! Your pain may save a soul dead in sin or get a soul from purgatory. Accept all I send you and don't complain. A lot of the pain is enhanced by your rejection. A lot of your lessons are lost by your refusal to see that crosses come from Me. I give you crosses to share in My suffering. I love you so much, little ones. Know how personal I am with you: the very hairs of your head are numbered. Come close to Me and look into My eyes. I am truly here with you at every single moment. Think of Me as a person, but I am closer than any person could ever be! I am there and I know your every breath and I care about your every breath. Who could even do this for another? Others would have to sometimes think of themselves.

I am God and I can think of you at every instant. I am so close to you you do not have any comprehension. It is not a myth. I am truly present to you at every instant. Feel My presence. Make Me alive to you. Experience all I have to give you. You will know Me as your personal Jesus the more you read and re-read these letters. I write them to each of you. Only God could love you each this way. Focus on Me and you and how close I am to you. I love you so, little one. Whence you go you never walk alone. I walked a road of torture that led to My death for love of you! When will you realize what I say is true? When will you know how close I am to you and embrace Me as I so desire? You hold yourself back because you do not focus on My love for you. I would walk that path this day for you. I love you the same this moment as I did then. Oh, little one, you want to put your little crosses down so fast. Hold them and walk awhile with Me down the road to Calvary. Be by My side and share a little in how intently I trod out of love of you.

I am Jesus, Son of the Living God. I am alive in this room with you. I am by your side. A toothache, you say-what pain! Accept your pain. I want you to feel that pain now. It will go away.* It is so little. Heartache I know, heartache to love each of My children so much and be ignored or put at arm's length! Do you know how it is to love another and not have their love? I long for your love with Me, but you are busy. You do not have the time to be with Me while I await thee. I am an ardent lover Who waits for each of My children to come and experience this great love. You stay away from Me Who is always waiting and you search this barren desert for that which I have to give you. I watch you in this search and want you to come home to My heart. I am waiting for you, little one. Don't keep yourself from Me. Remember how I suffered for love of you. When you feel a pain, remember the pain I suffered for love of you. That is how I love you this very day. Take your cross and walk with Me. Come and be with Me. I have that which your hungry soul craves.

I am your loving Jesus. I love you, child. You do not know. I wait to be closer to you. You must see Me as this personal and this alive in your life! Oh, sweet one, I love you to My death and I love you this way today. I lament My children lost in darkness. I want to be united to you. Come and make Me the center of your life. I wait for you!

R. *My toothache is gone!

Jesus: I want this emotion in the letter I told you to write. I, Jesus, Son of God, talk to you with such emotion! I am He Who died a brutal death for love of you. I died for you! I love you this much, to give My Life! Yet you couldn't even write when I asked you. You must do exactly as I say. I do not want you ever to say no to Me!

I have such emotion! I am telling you how I died a brutal death and you, My child, did not write for Me! What more can I do? What more do they want? You put others before Me or you would do as I command. I want you to do as I tell you every moment.

I am the Lord. I am the Son of God. Such emotion I let you feel for My death. I died. I am a person. I was human and I died for you. Think of yourself giving your life for someone and they do not care. What can I do to shake you? What more can I say? I am here and I am loving you and pleading with you to listen to Me with this emotion that God is telling you. I am Jesus. I died for you. I gave My life for you and do you even listen, My little sweet one? You didn't want to write it for My children. When I give you a command, you write. When I say do, you do. Selflessness! I am pushing you because I need your total surrender. Do not ever deny My writing to My loved ones. You have a responsibility. I don't care where you are when I talk. I am God and I talk to you. I am so present to you.

Listen. I need your selflessness. I need your surrender. I need your life, given for love of Me and Me alone. I need you to be the light that shines on the hill, that does not go in and out but is constant in My love. I need your commitment. I need your attention at every moment. I am feeding you My words every moment on paper and in your hand. You must obey Me exactly as I command. No questions, only action. I want action. Now! You write when I say write. I don't care where you are. You worry not for others. I am giving you the mighty medicine. Would you tell the doctor to wait? I am God and I do not ever want to wait while you play a safe game with Me. When I say do something, I want you to do it. You are My beloved and I am filling you with fire.

I am pushing you to do that which I need done. Do not ever stop to look around. Keep your focus on Me and My commands for you. I am using you every moment. I must be able to count on your constant consent to do My will immediately! I am calling you to this work and I want you to comply. I love you ardently. I am so full of love for you. Focus on this and this alone. I am Who am. I am God, child. Do not ever hesitate. Do not doubt or think. You must act as I act in you or My work will not be done.

Be selfless about My commands. You will do My work. You will spread My words of love and create emotion with My songs and I will use you to bring My flock to My love. I love every soul! You must spread My love.

Note: (Meditating on the Crucifixion) Going to Mass at the seminary at 8:00 a.m. was rushed. He said to me, "Where are you going, child. Do you not feel My presence with you?" A calm came over me. Then He started lamenting how He died for us, how He is a true person and He loves us so much. He said, "I died for you."

R. He gave His life for us. He is the little lamb led to the slaughter out of love for us. He said, "I need you to do this work now and I am pushing you." He was so upset! He died for us. He loves us so much as to give His life.

He begged me to spread His love, to tell others how He, bloodied, bruised and beaten, gave us His life.

Jesus: I am God. I am God. I died. Spread My love now! Now! Now! Now! Now! I am begging you not to hold back! Read these letters now, read and learn about My love. I beckon you to speak of My love. Shout it from the high roof. Proclaim it in the cities. Jesus Christ died for love of you and He is risen! I am He Who is God and I died for you!

Listen and preach My love and emotion here. Priests will create little cities, little cities in each church to spread the light of Christ to this sick world. Each priest can create his own little city, a powerhouse of God's love. God has all the power. His power is endless. It never runs out. It is might. You have no power except through Him. Churches filled with the intimate love of Jesus will be powerhouses.

I am God, My little ones. God can do all things. I can make your cities light up the darkness. I am the Way, the Truth, the Life. I am the light of life. I am God! I can do all things. I want to act in you. You need to be in constant union with Me. My priests, you need to be selfless. My soul and yours are one. I want to act in you.

Hold not back. Pray the Prayer for Union with Me.

                Jesus died, He has risen, He sends us now into
                    the world to be His Apostles to spread
                    the Good News. Pray to the Spirit to Sanctify
                    us and transform us from fear to fearlessness,
                    this is our mission. He ascended into heaven
                    He has given us His life, we carry out His
                    life, death and resurrection this
                    day in our lives and in the Church. Mary
                    is our Mother, she mothers us and
                    mothers the Church.

                April 21, 1995 - A Message to Fr. Carter

EMOTION

                Lock between 2 Hearts. How we are being called.

                R. I'll talk about His death, you talk about His
                life and resurrection, how we carry out
                our mission in the Church, in Shepherds
                of Christ — all is rooted in the lives
                of Jesus and Mary, the Incarnation, the life,
                death and resurrection of Jesus.

                How we are being called to go into the world and
                    spread the Gospel Message, we are His
                    Apostles through our prayers we are
                    praying for the priests, the Church and the
                    world.

                Look at the big picture - look at our books
                    as interlocked (Mine and Fr. Carter's).

                The Peace of Christ   Tell My People
                    to have peace, they must know
                    the burning love of Jesus' Heart —
                    Mary leads us to the Heart of Jesus!

                Father's Will - all through the rosary — I was
                    meditating on Their lives, meditating
                    on the Father's will

                Trust in Jesus p.5

                We are selling the love of the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Amen

                The one thing I know was His will, was
                    that I had these children.

                Jesus sent these people to me out of all
                    the people in this world and we are
                    going to go up there and worry about
                    the time.

                I saw Mary, last night, the night before,
                    so beautiful, who cares and
                    who listens, people want things their
                    own way, is that a display
                    of willfulness.

                I See MARY! Marty sees
                    Mary, she gives messages
                    and people say it is too long —

                    the people who come do not care, they
                    want more.

                The people who are watching the clock are
                    not realizing the great gift they
                    are getting.

                The priest here is taking 40 people to Medjugore
                    to see Mary and she is appearing
                    right here and they move the statue and
                    tell me it is too long. He says maybe they
                    should go to another church, that
                    is what they were doing to another
                    Visionary.

                Jesus isn't giving more signs because He
                    is drawing His soldiers that are
                    looking for union with Him in
                    their hearts.

                These are the ones that He will act out of.
                He can only act in them if people surrender and
                    become one in Him.

                These messages and rosaries are leading
                    men to be one in Him, to spend
                    TIME with Him.

                All these people taking pilgrimages and they
                    won't even let me in a room for too long.

                Only three people were here the night Mary talked
                    for 1 1/2 hours.

                Now Jesus sends me someone on Divine Mercy
                    Sunday at 3 and Jerry says spend 15 minutes.

                Do you want to sell books and get the
                    messages out, then follow Jesus.

                I have Blue Book Meetings planned
                    by Jesus, 8 books, I got in
                    1 1/2 years, songs and no
                    one has time to read the lessons.

                Why should He keep giving us more?

                Call in Visionaries that can't talk in English and
                    Mary is appearing right here and
                    everyone acts as if I am
                    taking too long.

                HOW BLIND!!

                We are given such gifts — No one could
                    write 8 books in 1 1/2 years and songs.

                I am a Math professor

                He has chosen me as His instrument
                    to give to all these great gifts.

                Jesus: The gifts are given to you, My dear
                    ones, you are receiving gifts
                    from Me. If you continue to ignore
                    these gifts you will struggle.

                This is the Father's Plan, the Blue Book
                    is the Mighty Medicine, medicine for the sick world.

                Jesus: No one has gotten so many books of
                    messages. I am giving you these
                    books to spread the love of the
                    Two Hearts.

                You do not listen to My pleadings.
                    Do you not care souls
                    will be lost.

                You will receive the income when you
                    spread the tapes and videos.
                    To keep Rita quiet is to block My
                    messages here. I am speaking in
                    these messages.

                I will not give more signs, I want hearts
                    rooted in deep love. Signs are external.
                    I want deep, deep, deep union to operate
                    from My beloved people's souls. When
                    souls become one in Me, I can work to
                    set the world on fire with My love.
                    Pray the Prayer for Union.

                That was a gift Fr. Carter said
                    that, so you can tell them
                    My wishes.

                Each Soul there will spread your
                    message and your books and tapes.

                Each Soul there is a Hungry
                    Soul.

                I am sending you workers to go out
                    into the vineyard and do My
                    work.

                You must feed the hungry with the
                    Fire of My Love!

                Fire will set their hearts ablaze with
                    My love. Zeal for their calling, not
                    lethargy, slothfulness.

                Do not hold back, I send you into the
                    world, armed with love from
                    the pierced Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

                Go - Go - Go and I will give the grace
                    to those attending to carry out
                    this message.

                The things, the intimate things, the crying, the
                emotion, the experiences with Mary's
                suffering, the deep connection with the
                other side, the presence, the overwhelming
                awareness of things to tears, all sound
                silly and I was afraid to share to some degree.

                Jesus forced me to share these experiences this
                summer, each time we would be going
                somewhere (to pray and have a good time)
                I got an intense insight and experience
                into Mary's sufferings.

                This is what it is all about, union, such
                a oneness with Them that I am sensitive
                to every grace He is giving me. Such
                immense joy to be this immersed
                in Their suffering.

                I see more and more, suffering as a joy to embrace
                the Heart of Christ, the crown of thorns
                Margaret Mary saw around Jesus' Heart
                say this.

                The joy is in the thorns we are given that are
                really great gifts given to those Jesus loves
                very much.

                The thorns take us to the deepest recesses of
                Jesus' Heart for they are indeed insights
                into Jesus' immense love and Jesus'
                suffering.

                As blood and water poured forth from Jesus' Heart
                as a sign of His great mercy for all His
                precious souls, the crown of thorns leads
                to the crown of victory, the thorns leads
                to the resurrection, Mary's heart was
                pierced with a sword, but crowned
                with a gold crown in heaven.
                The way to follow in His footprints
                is to accept all the great gifts we
                are given. Suffering brings us closer
                to Him, it is in suffering we are
                given a great sharing in His life if
                we stay rooted in Him.

                Jesus: There are My children all different levels
                of experiencing My life. The Spirit transforms
                you in the heart of My Dear Mother and
                leads you to deep, deep union with Me and I
                take you to the Father. Pray to the Spirit
                to permeate your soul, pray to
                be ever united to My Mother. I am
                Jesus, your beloved one.

                R. Jesus remains with us, truly present in the
                Blessed Sacrament —

                From the pierced side of Jesus flowed Blood and
                    water, Blood as a symbol of the Eucharist and
                    water a symbol for baptism.

                Rays coming out of the tabernacle.

                He pours Himself out to us in the Eucharist.

                Eucharist a fountain of His grace and mercy.

                His grace to us especially when we go to
                    the Eucharist and do adoration.

                Are you a dedicated Shepherds of Christ member?

                Jesus: "I am the Bread of Life"

                Jesus' body was broken so we might have new life.
                They break the Holy Eucharist at Mass.

                Battered Back — once unblemished
                He was willing to die for us to give us a sharing in His life.

                Help men to open their hearts to be brought
                    back to the fold so we can
                    be united more deeply as a body.

                The Church is the Body of Christ. Jesus
                    is the Head we are the members.

                Help us to realize our mission to go into
                    this world to spread the Good
                    News.

                To answer the commission given in
                    baptism to be His Apostles of the
                    Sacred Heart to do this work.

                To Carry out in our words and our
                    actions what God wants of us
                    dying and rising in Jesus.

                For they will see Christ in us as we put on
                    Christ and witness to Christ in our
                    lives, as we live out His life, death and
                    resurrection in our lives.

                Yes they will know we are Christians by our
                    LOVE — He is love, to know Him is to
                    be love, to live and act in love.
                    God dwells in us.
                    In our being we are likened to Him.

                Jesus: I am the way, the truth, the life, I am
                    the bread of life, I give to you My
                    Body, My Blood, You are My chosen ones.

                I am present to you, I am forever with you.
                    I live in a special way in those who are
                    in the state of grace and baptized.

                R. Love is a bond, I live in Him,
                    you live in Him, even though we
                    are physically separated we are
                    still united in Love, in Oneness in Him.

                I am united to all men. All men are my brothers.
                    Let us unite for He comes to show us
                    the way. His way is the way of Love.
