Prayer for Grace for our Country

Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

                R. Reference Maccabees 12: 1-23

                Strength is in unity –

                A man who thinks only of himself is very
                    weak.

                If an attacker comes, a dreaded disease,
                    how does he fen for himself when he
                    is wiped out.

                Strength is in unity. Unity takes working
                    together and trusting others as brothers
                    in the Lord.

                Relationships build strength.

                When a man's whole life is bent on
                    himself and his independence,
                    and his doing what he wants –
                    how weak is that –

                Our whole life should be seen as being
                    brothers under Christ – for is this
                    not what God wants of us – to be
                    brothers in Him –

                Why would a creature fight the plan
                    of God who created him to love
                    Him and live in love and unity
                    with His brothers –

                A man spent his whole life with his
                    goal to do what he wanted and
                    everybody around him bow
                    to him or get out of his space –
                    how weak is that man because
                    he sees not his own vulnerability
                    on this earth and how God created
                    us to be a network of love and
                    unity, depending on one another,
                    helping each other –
                    real brotherly love FROM our hearts –

                How weak is a man who does not trust
                    or work with others in trust and unity
                    and love!

                    A wind can come and blow and
                like a leaf blow off by itself and
                who even cares.

                    Oh he was the man who was mean
                to us. Children know such things –

                Jesus: Have you not lived your life in
                    vain if you made yourself
                    the center of your life and
                    told everyone to "buzz off" or
                    tried to hurt them to act out
                    your ways of using them like
                    objects that were your enemies.
                    I called you to be brothers in
                    Christ. I called you in the Church
                    the body of Christ –
                    Why did you listen to satan and
                    wherever you went close down
                    in selfish pursuits –
                    You were created to love!
                    You were created to grow in
                        strength in unity –

                    Rejecting your Creator –
                    Rejecting God's Plan –

                    Walking an isolated angry path
                        is a fool –

                    You were created to unite and
                        work in love and trust with
                        your brother –

                    Finding a place to close everything
                        down for power is a
                        mad-man's game!!

                Response

Psalm 119: 67-68, 71-72, 75-76

John 14: 6

Mark 8: 11-13

The Pharisees came up and started a discussion with him; they demanded of him a sign from heaven, to put him to the test. And with a profound sigh he said, ‘Why does this generation demand a sign? In truth I tell you, no sign shall be given to this generation.’ And, leaving them again, he re–embarked and went away to the other side.

                R. ENDURANCE under trial

                Faith means we believe in the unseen God
                    is showing us – We see through the eyes of God.

                We must try to live virtuously if we are
                    to imitate Jesus –

                We must beg for grace and co-operate
                    with the grace to grow in virtue.

                We live to follow in the footsteps of Jesus –

                Our purpose in life is to live for the honor
                    and glory of God.

                We want to let go of inordinate attachments
                    to pride and anger and jealousy, envy,
                    slothfulness, gluttony and lust.

                We need to pray for clean hearts and
                    to live a holy life – ready to ask
                    for forgiveness and make amends
                    when we hurt God and others.

                We need to live by the Father's will in love –

                Seek the Father's will and do it because
                    we love God – we are under God –
                    we have a free will to obey God or not –

                We are on a stage and God is watching
                    our performance 24/7.

                We are sinful Fr. Carter says when
                    we are unloving to others –

James 1: 12-18

Psalm 94: 12-15, 18-19

Matthew 11: 25

                R. When we have darkness in our hearts and
                    we lie to ourselves about our sins
                    and do not clean our hearts it
                    grows like yeast – in greater darkness –

Mark 8: 14-21

                R. When we love Jesus Christ we are
                    ready to fight for Him. If we have turmoil,
                    anger, darkness, chaos and
                    confusion in our hearts, we will not
                    be ready to fight for God –

                Being in one mind and one heart is
                    the focus of the Shepherds of Christ –
                    God wants love –
                    He is love –
                    God wants unity –

                A person can have division in their hearts
                    from their past and keep working that
                    out on others –

                In their unfinished business they can just
                    decide to punish, be divided and
                    live with that intention to do that.
                    That's what debris and division
                    can do to a heart –

                This is not love –

                This is not being an imitator of Jesus Christ.

                Seeking division and anger acted out on
                    innocent others is sin –
                    God commands us to love our
                    neighbor as ourselves –

                What we do to others – we do to Jesus.

                If we are used to a divided, angry heart –
                    it's time to change – not continue
                    acting it out on innocent others –
                    it's sinful, it offends God and
                    it drives us away from Him –

                    Only in God can we be happy –
                    In obedience to God's will –
                    In obedience to authority over us –

                The devil says –

                    Oh you can do what you want –
                        that's old-fashioned – justify
                        yourself – That is wrong

                We are under God –

                God must be first –

                We can't put anger and sin before God –

                We need to examine our conscience
                    and be accountable and responsible
                    before God for our sins –

                We need to love

                God is love –

                We drive ourselves away from God
                    when we live in an unloving,
                    lying heart.

                The golden rule –
                    "Do unto others as you would have
                        them do unto you" –

                Wednesday is Ash Wednesday –
                    We receive ashes –
                    We receive ashes because we need
                        to repent for our sins –

                    God is merciful and forgiving, but
                we must admit our sins and be sorry
                for them – with a firm
                purpose of amendment –

                    God is light and in Him is no darkness –

                    We need to pray for grace –

                Jesus: Do penance – not for show – because
                    you are genuinely sorry for your sins.

                Sing: Hosea

                Pray Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb

                Pray Prayer for Union –

                Sing: Be merciful, Oh Lord, for we have
                    sinned.

                R. We must tell God we are sorry for sin
                    and be reconciled to Him –

                Jesus: Do Good works, be holy. Do good works
                    not to show others, but to
                    serve God.

                You are to love and help one another
                    to do My work of helping to
                    build My Kingdom – with a
                    holy heart of love – of co-operation –
                    of caring for your brothers and
                    for your salvation and helping
                    others to get to heaven –

                Sing: Hosea

                R. Heal our sins God –

                Help us to grow in holiness

                Outpour Your grace

                Forgive our sins and have mercy.

                A religious community should set themselves
                    apart from the worldliness of the world.
                    In a religious community there should
                    be holiness, obedience, unity,
                    peace and love –

                R. Intensified prayer life – praying for
                    the priests, the Church and the world.

                R. We are to be witnesses of holiness,
                    imitators of Jesus in example
                    before men – imitators in our hearts –
                    pure of heart –

                Be zealous, enthusiastic about our
                    calling from God –

                Not Slothful!!

                R. Mighty Medicine
 

                R. Here is our Lenten program –
                    the first 4 Masses of Lent

                We concentrate on our soul –
                    We do not focus on the worldly
                        things.

                Sing: Life or Death

                Choose life! !

                R. We must die to those things that
                    are worldly –

                Every action is to be performed
                    with our eternal life in mind.

                We must take up our cross and
                    follow Jesus –

Luke 9: 22-25

                R. We have a duty in a religious vocation
                    to be examples of Christ and
                    under obedience build up
                    the community and organization.

                We must atone for our sins,
                    our neglect, our lies,
                    anger, division, unloving ways,
                    creating turmoil for meanness –

                We cannot produce disorder or use
                    force on others to deal with
                    our disobedience to tear apart
                    an organization God has set up.

                We have an obligation, a duty
                    to follow in the footsteps
                    of Jesus!! Godly example.

                Fasting can be fasting from anger,
                    discord, pride, attention,
                    power – bringing chaos and confusion.

                Fasting from disobedience. Be loving, doing
                    the will of God with a holy heart.

 Isaiah 58: 1-9

Shout for all you are worth,
   do not hold back,
raise your voice like a trumpet.
To my people
   proclaim their rebellious acts,
to the House of Jacob, their sins.
They seek for me day after day,
they long to know my ways,
like a nation that has acted uprightly
and not forsaken the law of its God.
They ask me for laws that are upright,
they long to be near God:
'Why have we fasted, if you do not see,
why mortify ourselves if you never notice?’
Look, you seek your own pleasure
   on your fastdays
and you exploit all your workmen;
look, the only purpose of your fasting
   is to quarrel and squabble
and strike viciously with your fist.
Fasting like yours today
will never make your voice heard on high.
Is that the sort of fast that pleases me,
a day when a person
   inflicts pain on himself?
Hanging your head like a reed,
spreading out sackcloth and ashes?
Is that what you call fasting,
a day acceptable to Yahweh?
Is not this the sort of fast that pleases me:
to break unjust fetters,
to undo the thongs of the yoke.
to let the oppressed go free,
and to break all yokes?
Is it not sharing your food with the hungry,
and sheltering the homeless poor;
if you see someone lacking clothes,
   to clothe him,
and not to turn away from your own kin?
Then your light will blaze out
   like the dawn
and your wound be quickly healed over.
Saving justice will go ahead of you
and Yahweh’s glory come behind you.
Then you will cry for help
   and Yahweh will answer;
you will call and he will say, ‘I am here.’
If you do away with the yoke,
the clenched fist and malicious words,

Matthew 9: 14-15

Then John’s disciples came to him and said, ‘Why is it that we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not?’ Jesus replied, ‘Surely the bridegroom’s attendants cannot mourn as long as the bridegroom is still with them? but the time will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast.

                R. Self-control, discipline –
                    moderation in one's willful,
                    selfish behavior –

                Praying to clean one's heart of
                    hatred, anger, unforgiveness –

                DISCIPLINE

                DOING GOD'S WILL

                        IN LOVE

                Jesus: Doing God's work and not
                    creating turmoil for
                    attention, power, wasting
                    time, selfish, self-enclosure.

                Repentance for sins, unloving ways!!

                Asking God for forgiveness with a
                    sincere heart –
                    ready to make recompense for
                    damage done –

Isaiah 58: 9-14

                R. Repairer of the breach

                Sing: Change Our Hearts

Luke 5: 27-32

                Jesus: Self-Denial, Discipline               

Romans 13: 12

Psalm 51: 12, 14

Psalm 95: 8

Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, 
as at the time of Massah in the desert,

Ezekiel 18: 31

Ezekiel 33: 11

Say to them, "As I live -- declares the Lord Yahweh -- I do not take pleasure in the death of the wicked but in the conversion of the wicked who changes his ways and saves his life. Repent, turn back from your evil ways. Why die, House of Israel?"

Transcribed from Rosary Received Live Today

R. Jesus wants me to do a sorrowful rosary.

Sorrowful Rosary

Song:  Lord Let Me Walk

   

The Agony of Our Lord in the Garden

    1.  Jesus:  When I was in My Passion My thoughts were of you.

    2.  Jesus:  I saw before Me in the garden all the suffering that I was about to undergo but I saw you in your yes, in your love given, in your life given and day after day even though it was very difficult you kept going on and saying yes, yes Lord, yes I love You, yes Lord. The greatest saints have had very many hard jobs to do. I have given to you great grace and some suffering, but I have outpoured My richest love to you and you responded with the love of giving yourself to Me. Oh My apostles, if you say no to this mission who will I send for I have trained you and taught you and I call you and I want you to come and to spread the mission on to the people of this earth and those to come. Do not under estimate the importance of this mission ever. Do not crawl in a box and let the ants crawl over the box and hide your head, come out and see the sun. Say yes in all that you do. Say yes to every moment of your life. Do not give into the darkness that satan creates for he wants you to stumble and to fall. He comes with his rope to tie you up and let you fall on your nose. Oh My precious and dear one look into My face on the building and know that I appear there out of greatest love for you.

    3.  Jesus:  And My call goes out to many and I am ignored.

    4.  Jesus:  Many have made money their god and they do not even know for it is the way of life for many of the people of the earth. It needs to swing back so that people will be able to know what is really important but they base their lives on riches and pride, pleasure, fame, a good name. Oh My precious ones hold stead tight to this mission. Do not falter in what I have asked you to do. Do not give into satan for he wants to trip you up and to set you out to dry. You are given a free will. Pray every day, take time every day to be alone with Me that you will know My will for you. It is so easy to be led astray. Oh My precious one I want you to help Me to do this work.

    5.  Jesus:  And it goes like this night, day, night, day, night, day, night, day. Did you not learn the lesson of the cross and the lesson of the resurrection. Did you not learn the suffering and the victory? Did you not learn, did you not learn yet when I have given you so many experiences? But you do not know as if you had a blindfold around your head, you do not see. And they tell you again and again and again in so many ways and yet you need to be reminded daily of the paschal mystery - death resurrection, death resurrection, night day. Look at the sky, it is dark and it is light and it is dark and it is light. And how is it in your lives that you have suffering and joy. But always the joy of My love for you should reign in your heart despite the greatest sufferings the joy of knowing Me, the joy of giving yourself to Me, the joy of knowing how much I love you is always in your heart.

    6.  Jesus:  Did you watch the grass come up year after year and it turns green? Do you watch that here? Do you wonder? Or do you just take it for granted just like you take the sun coming up every day, hum, for granted? The darkness comes and you fail to even notice that the Creator moves the light and the darkness, the rain, the sun, the sleet, the grass. I clothe the birds of this air and the little bugs that fly about. Oh you, you who are so precious to Me, you fail to see so many things and yet you can see the tiniest speck of dirt on the ground. What is wrong with your vision that you see the dirt on the ground but miss the beauty of My creation.

    7.  Jesus:  There once was a man who ordered a lawn care. They came out and they sprayed and his grass was green and it looked beautiful. It was like a carpet. And he looked out his window and he prided himself because he was so glad for his endeavor. There was another man who tried to do it himself and his grass was brown and then he burned it and then it just was a mess. The man who ordered the lawn care went into the yard and saw the man with the burned grass. He went over there, he could have put his hands in his lapels with such pride and he looked down upon him. And he said, "huh, your grass, humph, what did you do to it?" And the man said, "I just do not know, I tried to do it myself and it seemed like it got worse and worse all the time." The man turned around and went into his house and looked at his grass and he was filled with pride and joy and he jumped up and down. What is wrong with men that they look at others who they think are not as good as them and they jump with joy? Do you not know that they are your brothers, that I gave My life for them the same as you? How silly it is that one could have so much pride over his grass and not be concerned about the spiritual matters of his life? But My children I tell you this, it goes on all day, foolishness. Foolishness you say. Did you ever see a bird with a long neck that buries their head in the ground? What do they see down there? Is that a silly story too? How many people do you think that think they have the necks that see so many things really take their head like a long-necked bird and bury it beneath the surface of the earth wagging their feathers behind them.

    8.  Jesus:  Open your eyes that you will see, pray with a heart that is filled with love, ask to be taught how to be likened to Me. For you are so blind you do not even see many of the things that you do day after day, minute after minute. Oh you think you are so wise, and you are so narrow-minded. I can open up your eyes and outpour My wisdom to you, but would you listen anyway? So many are so fixed in their ways, they like the way that they do it and they really don't want to change. They don't really want to go that extra mile to be nice. It's too easy to be so proud over your green grass and look at the neighbor's burned brown grass next door and say, humph, I'm better than him.

    9.  Jesus:  And if you are better at one thing than another is it because of something that you did? Or do you praise your heavenly Father and thank Him and tell Him how much you love Him and ask Him for help to use that talent that you were given to promote His honor and glory?

   10. Hail Mary...

Glory Be

    

      

The Scourging at the Pillar

1.  Jesus:  Did you ever look at the littlest flower and see how intricate it is with such beauty to the smallest detail.

2.  Jesus:  Sometimes some people make little doll houses, with little beds, little furniture and they care about the house so much that they almost climb into that world and they forget where they are. Every place they go they are thinking about how to fix up their little house. It may be a wonderful hobby and it may help you in some other things in your life, but when you fix up the little house and it becomes your obsession to the point that is all that what you think about, isn't that sort of silly? For you can't live in the little house and you can you can only look at it so long. What are you doing here? Are you fixing up your little house? Do you think you will be here forever? Do you not see how the flower withers and fades and the sun comes up and goes down? Do you not see how the baby soon turns into an old man and the children follow close behind? Think of the story of the lady that was obsessed with her little house, that's all she thought about was her little house, it was perfect. She thought about it all day and all night, she dreamed about it. She got so obsessed she even changed some of the furniture weekly. But there was a lack of joy in her heart because she could not use the little house. She surely could not go inside the door, her foot would not even fit in the door but she sure was obsessed with that little house. How foolish you are not to see the big picture for you fix up your houses, measure your fat cells, stay here to make everything so perfect that your life will last you think, last and last. And you do not know that a wind can come and blow it all away. It is important to take care of yourself and to build a home but it is foolish to be obsessed with the material things of this earth and not to see the wider vision.

    3.  Jesus:  Did you see Me at the pillar? Did you see them tear My flesh? Did you see the blood go into the air? Could you have withstood this for the one you loved? When they came with their heavy whips and they tore pieces of flesh from My body My thoughts were of you. And many think so little of Me that they ignore God their Creator, they ignore God. How foolish indeed.

    4.  Jesus:  The sky was blue and the little bird. He was flying close, close to a little tree and a little boy went out and he saw the beautiful bird and he thought the bird was so close that he could almost touch him but he was afraid. The bird was blue. And he called to his mother in a nearby kitchen window and he said, "Mama, mama, come, mama" and at that the bird flew away. He thought he could have touched the bird, but when he called, it startled the bird and he flew away. How many people today reach high into the sky to touch the bird and it flies away? How many birds have you reached for, and reached for and reached for which were not the birds that were really in the Father's will only to watch them fly away. The little boy sat on a tree stump and he began to cry and the mother came over and she said, "My son it is very hard to touch the birds. I don't know if you will ever be able to catch a wild bird and it might not be good for you. But the bird was beautiful to look at wasn't he? He was blue, so beautiful you said." My child there are many things that you see that are beautiful and that you want to hold and that you want to have, but it is not the Father's will that you catch the wild blue birds. You will learn in your life, some birds might be the right ones, others may not be right at all.

    5.  Jesus:  Many people of today look at the beauty of a woman or a man and they think because they are beautiful that they have the right to touch and to behold. I stood at the pillar and they tore My flesh for many of the people that reached for the beauty that they had no right to touch and behold.

    6.  Jesus:  Now I speak to you of blood and blue birds and many may say what do they have in common. What it is, is a parable. And I will tell you - you cannot reach for all the things that are blue and beautiful and try to behold them. If you reach for the things that are not of God's will you will suffer in your life. You may not think that you will suffer, but you will suffer. You will make it more difficult for yourself for being willful and reaching for those things that are not good for you. To My death on the cross I hung for love of you. I am the Divine God, I am truly present and with you in this room, no less present than the day I hung on the cross or the day I knelt in the garden or the day I stood at the pillar. And I speak to you to tell you these parables that you may see and study them for future learning, for I am God and I tell you secrets to help you to have happiness and life rooted in Me, greater life, life that will lead you to everlasting life where there you will taste of My love and be embraced by the Divine God.

    7.  Jesus:  Now there was a dirty river that was strong and moving, moving so strong and there was a calm river close by. A man went to cross the river. In the strong river there were many rocks that were being washed down stream. He wanted to get to the other side so much that he tried to cross that river that was so hard and so strong. There was another man and he felt that he should get to the other side but the river was very calm and very easy to cross. I just watch you. You create logs and rocks and waves and dirt and then you say, "Now I'm going to get to the other side," and then the struggle in the crossing. And I just watch and say, "Oh My child it would have been so easy had you just done God's will."

    8.  Jesus:  Little dogs have little houses, some are red and some are tan. If you were on the street and you saw a doghouse that was red, would you see it right away? Would you see the tan house right away? If the dog came out of the tan house barking vehemently and ran after your leg, would you see the house then? You may say to yourself, "The tan house was there and it even had a sign that said 'Fargo' but I did not see the house and the next thing I knew he was chasing me down the street. I wish I would have seen the house because he scared me and my heart was beating and I thought he was going to bite me and it was just an awful experience. Dogs should have red houses so that when you walk down the street you'll know that there's a big ferocious dog in that red house and you can be prepared." Oh My little one, how do you think the devil comes to you? He does not come in a red house, he comes in the tan house that you hardly see. He may even wear a sign that says 'devil' but somehow or ever you just don't see and guess what - he is out to attack and to get you. The devil is filled with deception and lies and he is real. And so what is all this saying to you? I stood at the pillar and they whipped Me and they tore My flesh and I did it for love of you. Do you know what it is to love someone? I loved you. And I knew you would make mistakes and I knew you would fail but My love, so great for you, that I wanted you with Me for all eternity and I let them tear My body and beat My flesh. And I warned you of the dog in the tan house but you would not listen. You went right past that house and almost stuck your leg in. I gave you My commandments. And you try to stretch them and see them all different ways, when they were so clear. But you said if my wife doesn't love me, then it's alright for me to go get another woman and to sneak around because it's her fault, things like that. And the commandment was there as big as could be. But you saw it your way and you went past the tan house and then there was a new baby from the second lady. And then that baby grew and suffered it's whole life. I give you My commandments that you will be happy. You can cross the water if you want with all the rocks and the wood and the waves but a lot of that rocks and woods and waves you did yourself. And I'll tell you this very clearly, that the devil is real, and he is there to trick you and to lead you astray.

Jesus:  There was a married couple and they had lots of seeds and they went out and they planted lots of fruit in their garden. There was a lady and her mind wandered and instead of her planting the seeds in the garden with her husband, she went next door and planted the seeds in the garden of the man next door. Now when the time comes that the fruit comes forth, how should she pick the fruit from the vine? If the man's wife comes home what should she do? Isn't that a silly story.

                

        

The Crowning with Thorns

1.  Jesus:  I want you to sing to Me songs of praise and love. I want you to honor Me as King. And yet I came to this earth and they pounded a crown of thorns into My head and I bled for all the sins that the men would commit with their heads, sins of pride and hatred, thoughts that they would give into and hurt others because of their greed and selfishness and lust. I am Jesus the Son of God and they came to Me and they mocked Me and they spit on Me and they took the crown and the thorns went into My head and the blood ran into My eyes and My mouth. It was not a pretty sight but when you love someone you give out of love for them. I gave for love of you. Many today use My Name in vain. How I suffered for the men and the way that they would use My Name. When you say My Name in prayer you give to Me great joy. When you sing the Name Jesus with love and praise, I am filled with joy. There are so many today, you do not even know how My Name is defaced on your media and by senseless men. Some whose hearts are filled with anger as if they are testing Me to see if I would bring My hand on them and yet I just say one thing. When you cross the river do you go to the one that is strong and filled with debris? Or do you go to the calm one? Men that beep their horns and shake their fists and do gestures that are very unholy, really hurt themselves. And every time that you hurt others you are doing those things to Me.

2.  Song:  I Am the Bread of Life

3.  Sing:  Ave Maria, Ave Maria 

     Jesus:  I am a God of miracles.

4.  Sing:  King of Glory
     Sing:  To Jesus Christ Our Sovereign King

     R. Dear God we honor You, we worship You, we love You and we thank You for the sufferings that You under went for our sins.

5.  Jesus:  There once was a little green bush and a little boy came out every day and he played by the little green bush. One day he came out and the little green bush was gone and he went back into his house and he cried to his mother, "Mama, Mama, Mama where did that little green bush where I use to play every day go?" And she said, "Well honey I'm sorry, but it was not on our property. It was really on the other man's property and when you played you were playing on our property but it was the other man's green bush. And I'm sorry that he took the green bush down but there are some things that you have to give up in life." Later on that afternoon the little boy found out that his grandma had died. Life goes on in cycles. I give you one another to love and to help each other, to spread My Kingdom and to be with Me forever. But just like the little green bush and the little boy's grandma, life goes on. And you plant the seeds here below and sometimes others have to tend to those seeds after you are gone but you never stop, you keep on going because that you know that life goes on and on and on in heaven and you do all that you can to promote My Kingdom for your life here is so temporary. It is like the lady with the little house, she kept working on her little house and working on her little house and working on her little house and she never could put one foot in the door.

6.  Jesus:  But the little boy would not let go. And he went outside several days later when he saw the person next door that owned the bush and he went up to him and he said, "You know" he said, "I loved to play there and the bush gave me shade and I was so happy and one day I went out there and you took the bush away. Did you not know that I played there?" And the man said to him, "I really don't care."

7.  Jesus:  It isn't like that, that you live in the world and you can decide that you are not going to care what happens to someone else. It isn't that the old man or the old lady that go to church should just think about themselves and their family and pray as if they live in an isolated island. You must do all that you can to show the world a wider vision that what they do today in their spiritual life and how their children grow to follow the vocation that they have been given will affect the lives of people to come for all the centuries after them. It isn't like that, you are all connected.

8.  Jesus:  And when they beat Me and I suffered and I hung on the cross and I died, I died for each and every soul.

9.  Jesus:  Little children are so precious and they are being taught so many unclean things. You must pray as never before as I have directed and begin the prayer chapters for you pray fervently for your priests for they need these prayers and the Church needs the prayers, and the world. You can't say to yourself, " well it's too hard to get a prayer chapter going here, they don't want to do that." You have to keep trying. You are the ones I have called to spread this to the future generations, to tell them about My Movement Shepherds of Christ. It is only in its infancy stages. Tell them, tell them Rita, tell them what I tell you now.

Glory Be

        

      

Jesus Carries His Cross

1.  Jesus:  Now I just want to tell you a little story. When you go out to the parking lot there is the possibility that your car will not start. And after futile attempts to try to make it go and your desire to get home, if you look around and no one is there will you pick your car up on your back and carry it to the gas station because you want to get home today? You say, "Well Jesus I can't carry a car." I carried My cross to the hill of Calvary and it was heavier than any car. It was laden with the sins of the world and when I fell and it fell on Me, on My back, My chin hit the ground. I am the Almighty God and I got up and I moved on. Now I ask you today to get up when it is difficult and to move on. Some people sit down as soon as it becomes difficult. They get into their feelings and they drop the ball. Do you know what happens in the game, if it's a baseman and he's running from second to third base and then all of a sudden because he sees that there's a little pressure coming at him from a few directions, he just drops the ball and sits there. What would the crowd do at such a player and would he lose his job? What do I do with you when you are going from second to third base and satan is pressing in and I have a deadline and then you say, "Whew, this is too hard." And you sit down right there and drop the ball.

2.  Jesus:  Now a man went out and he wore a cap and he always wore it so that the flap was sort of to the side and back. A little girl came up and she said to the man, she said, "Mister, your hat's crooked." And he became very angry at her and he started to curse the little girl and said "Who are you, you smart little girl to come up here and talk to me like that?" Sometimes from the mouths of babes you are told the very thing that needs to change in your lives. And you run them away and do exactly what is like logs and rocks floating down the rough river.

3.  Jesus:  I carried My cross to the hill of Calvary, there I mounted it and I died for love of you. I died for you. I died for you.

4.  Jesus:  My cross was so heavy it was laden with the sins of the world. The crosses I give to you can be very heavy, some maybe not so heavy. Crosses come in all sizes but in your heart should be the underlying love and joy that Jesus your Savior loves you so much. He carried His cross to the hill of Calvary and He died for love of you. Keep that thought ever before your mind and your joy should be filled always even in great suffering. I carried My cross when it was so heavy and I got up when I thought I could not hardly get up but I knew that I could because of My love for you.

5.  Hail Mary

6.  Hail Mary

7.  Jesus:  I carried My cross to the hill of Calvary, there I mounted it, there I hung for 3 agonizing hours to My death on the cross. I shed the last drop of My Blood and gave the last beat of My Heart for you.

Glory Be

      

          

The Crucifixion

1.  Jesus sings:  I died for you, I died for you.

2.  Jesus:  Your life is so important for the souls.

3.  Jesus:  Don't put all your hope in the little doll house.

4.  Jesus:  Have quiet time every day to come and to communicate with Me. You do not want ferocious rivers filled with rocks and debris that you make yourselves.

5.  Jesus:  Remember that satan can be a little dog house - inside a ferocious lion that you do not even see. Ask for eyes to see the ways that satan can trip you up.

6.  Jesus:  You can't hold on to people and places always forever. Sometimes you have to let go.

7.  Jesus:  I hung for 3 agonizing hours on the cross. I watch you, many of you cannot wait a second. You act, sometimes, to cause greater trouble in your life because you are impatient. While I am working in your life after you pray you do something to botch the matters up.

8.  Jesus:  Impatience is a problem.

9.  Jesus:  Lack of love, lack of faith, lack of being committed to My Movement. Give yourself every day. Read your little prayer every day. Fr. Carter told you that everyday he prayed and prayed for the grace to live up to his vocation. You must pray for the grace to live up to your vocation. You are at battle and the evil one wants you to stop. So many people have turned away because they have given in, because they have not prayed. Your problems in many cases were caused by those who gave into the evil one and now live in pain.

10.  Jesus:  Oh that the devil really did come in a red suit with a pitch fork but some would still ignore him.

 

Jesus:  He comes that you will suffer and that you will weave a web of destruction. He comes and he wants to take your soul home to hell with him. How many people of the earth today do not even realize the workings of the evil one? They go by the tan dog house every day. Even when the dog comes and bites their leg, they just don't see.

Hail Holy Queen
