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. The devotion to the Sacred Heart in the
Shepherds of Christ that Jesus asked Fr. Carter
to spread helps the deepening in the interior life.
Our involvement in the world is
guided by the strength of our
interior life with Christ.
The Sacred Heart devotion helps us to
have a balance and harmony
between the interior and exterior
in our lives.
Jesus was so intimately united to
Mary, His Mother. Beneath the cross
of Jesus stood Mary and John –
Jesus is those last dying
moments said
John 19: 25-27
Near the cross of Jesus stood his
mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of
Magdala. Seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing
near her, Jesus said to his mother, ‘Woman, this is your son.’ Then
to the disciple he said, ‘This is your mother.’ And from that hour
the disciple took her into his home.
R. In those very last moments on the cross,
Jesus gave us His Mother as our Mother.
Mary has given me this message:
Mary's
Message
from the Rosary of August 27, 1996
Mary:
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.
end of Mary's Message
R. Mary shows us her heart of
love. Mary is our spiritual Mother.
If in our lives our mother did not
help us with what we needed or
wounded us by not even letting us
ask for this –
Mary is our spiritual
Mother – always ready to help
us and love us and listen to our cries
for help.
Jesus shows us Mary's powerful
intercession at the wedding of Cana.
Jesus' little body was formed in
Mary's womb by the power of the Holy
Spirit. Jesus is the fruit of Mary's womb
we say in the Hail Mary.
Eve ate the forbidden fruit
in the Garden and deeply
offended God, but despite this
sin, Jesus came and lived, took
flesh and died and rose so
we could be raised to a new
level of existence through baptism.
Mary was conceived without sin to
be able to carry the Christ-child.
Mary is, Mother Immaculate.
Mary appeared in CLEAR - WATER
December 17, 1996 – March 1, 2004,
in rainbow color to remind us
of the Covenant God made with
Noah –
Sunday our first reading was this.
Genesis 9: 8-15
God spoke as follows
to Noah and his sons, ‘I am now establishing my covenant with you
and with your descendants to come, and with every living creature
that was with you: birds, cattle and every wild animal with you;
everything that came out of the ark, every living thing on earth.
And I shall maintain my covenant with you: that never again shall
all living things be destroyed by the waters of a flood, nor shall
there ever again be a flood to devastate the earth.’
‘And this’, God
said, ‘is the sign of the covenant which I now make between myself
and you and every living creature with you for all ages to come: I
now set my bow in the clouds and it will be the sign of the covenant
between me and the earth. When I gather the clouds over the earth
and the bow appears in the clouds, I shall recall the covenant
between myself and you and every living creature, in a word all
living things, and never again will the waters become a flood to
destroy all living things.
R. Our second reading was this –
1 Peter 3: 18-22
The
resurrection and the descent into hell
Christ himself died
once and for all for sins, the upright for the sake of the guilty,
to lead us to God. In the body he was put to death, in the spirit he
was raised to life, and, in the spirit, he went to preach to the
spirits in prison. They refused to believe long ago, while God
patiently waited to receive them, in Noah’s time when the ark was
being built. In it only a few, that is eight souls, were saved
through water. It is the baptism corresponding to this water which
saves you now—not the washing off of physical dirt but the pledge of
a good conscience given to God through the resurrection of Jesus
Christ, who has entered heaven and is at God’s right hand, with
angels, ruling forces and powers subject to him.
Mark 1: 12-15
And at once the Spirit drove him into the desert and
he remained there for forty days, and was put to the test by Satan.
He was with the wild animals, and the angels looked after him.
After John had been arrested, Jesus went into
Galilee. There he proclaimed the gospel from God saying, ‘The time
is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is close at hand. Repent, and
believe the gospel.’
R. "The Kingdom of God is at hand."
We were told by Jesus to give this
devotion to the Sacred Heart and
Mary's Immaculate Heart –
Her heart is a symbol of her
love for us.
Mary shows us her loving heart
for us and calls us for our
love and reparation for
sin.
We give our heart to Mary and
Mary places us in Jesus' Sacred
Heart.

R.
Oh, there is not
one so fair as thee, my beloved Mother Mary.
Of all the maidens that God could have chosen it was you, oh shining Star of Heaven.
Oh Mary, Mother of us all. She doth appear as a wonder so fair indeed,
A permanent sign of God’s love.
A Woman clothed in gold.
One that glistens with the radiance of a golden tone,
Her beauty dancing in the sunlit hours of every day.
In morning splendor, in dancing light at noon day as the sun glistens on her rainbow glow and at night she has appeared on special dates in golden splendor and light.
Would you quote the Scripture for Mary so fair.
“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 labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth.” (Revelation 12: 1-2)
Would you see her as she appeared in little villages in the 20th century, tucked in hills and out of the way places.
If you missed these enormous signs from heaven, of one so fair, she appears there clothed in the golden sun of the day, reflecting her radiant beauty painted by the hand of the Father. She is His chosen maiden so fair.
She appears daily, she is there by day and beneath the black shadows of night, she does not slumber, but calls to her children of light to come through her golden doorway and let the light of Christ shine in their souls.
She appears one so fair, by day and sometimes by night clothed in radiance and golden, her garment hemmed with glistening sunlight. She once appeared to a few and her visits fleeting in remotest places, she remains a Woman Clothed with the Sun, the sun dancing on her garments of rainbow color on a busy, busy corner for all to see, in the state of the sun, sunny Florida. She is a Woman painted by the brush of God.
And do you know the wonder of one who calls the children far and wide, to hear the voice of her Son, Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock.
Mary, the heavenly maiden, to call them home to His Heart.
Oh, of one so fair, do we not boast and praise our God and thank Him for such a wonder.
Oh, to Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth, we cry, help us to do what you asked for at Fatima and help us in our mission of telling the world of your Son’s desire to spread His Movement so men will be Shepherds of Christ.

Message
Walk in the TRUTH
Messenger:
| |
The blue of the sky we cannot capture exactly.
The white of the
snow.
The color of the
smoke of the geyser.
Do we not see the
fire of the stars, the light of the sun, the denseness
of the black night. It is the creation of God and we
cannot describe it exactly as it is. |
|
God speaks:
| |
Oh, open your eyes, men, and see the
softness of the skin of the baby, the intricacies of a
human ear, the complexities of a human eye and the
master mind of the Creator in the function of a human
heart.
Oh, blind men, those who are so prideful,
bow to God your Creator. See with the eyes of faith.
It is I who paint
the hills with My mystical wand. It is reality. So, too,
the things you do not see, they are real. It is your
perception that is off. God Is and He is Divine and you
cannot create as I do.
Get off your
pedestals and live in reality. I am Supreme, you are
under Me, but I elevate you to such heights.
Oh, men of the
earth, worship God your Creator, be humble, live in the
truth. If you are intelligent it is because of My grace
and My goodness.
Huffy little men.
Let Me see you produce the beauty of a sunlit field,
from sun to flower. My men, you are limited, you are
human, you are My creatures and I am your God. Recognize
Me and live in the truth. Be docile to the hand of God
in your life.
Oh, children of
the light, hear Me, I am God.
I am the Light of the World.
In Me you live in
the light. |
|
Messenger:
| |
My eyes beheld the beauty of the night,
the stars, the moon.
My eyes beheld the
sunlit day and the wonders of the lake and heard the
trickle of the falls. First, faintly, and then as I
approached, the sound of roaring water.
Why do men not
comprehend the goodness of God? Why do they abuse Him
with slang and slanting remarks?
The forest can
burst into flame in the heat of the day and what was
once a beauteous field, a garden of fruit, a forest of
fir trees, can become lands of waste at the hands of the
elements or what have you.
A home of lustrous
beauty, ravaged by a violent wind of enormous proportion
and you cry and then when the reality sets in you say,
"Oh, but I have my life and the life of my children."
Oh, what is it
that man can be so blind and then when health is taken
away from a man, he sees those things that are
transcendent, he sees the glory of God and the promise
of everlasting life to those who love and serve the
Lord.
We do not see and
we do not understand the ways of God and yet in it all,
He is attempting to lead us to Him, and He gives us the
gifts of the universe. He gives us love. |

Today is the Queenship of Mary
Messenger: The Queen mounts her throne among shouts of joy The angels surround this heavenly throne Her children love her and worship their God.
The Sacred Heart of Jesus reigns in the hearts of her children.
He is the King of their hearts.
She is the Queen of their hearts.
A New Adam, a New Eve are recognized by the once enslaved children of Adam and Eve.
A trumpet blare for one so fair, a blare of music for our starved ears.
From the Magnificat, Mary speaks with the lilt of the voice of one so pure and holy. (NOTE: Read this with
the lightness of the voice of the Virgin filled with the Holy Spirit and in the humility of one so fair.
Among shouts of joy our Lady speaks liltingly in a heavenly voice and we gape at the sound of her sweet voice and behold the beauty of this maiden so sweet and fair.
God the Father speaks:
Amen, amen I say to you My beloved Apostles of the Sacred Heart. You may worry and struggle now, but a King looks on you with the greatest love as you surrender more and more everyday to do My will that this day will come to your earth, the day of the Reign of the Sacred Heart.
Do not get caught up in the mysteries of the way men act and perceive things, but put your gaze ever more on the mystery of My Divine Son and how much He truly loves you.
You are caught in the wonder of the earth and the firmament. My beloved, so much more glorious is the insight into My Divine Mysteries.
My plan is given here to bring about the Reign of My Son’s Sacred Heart and the triumph of your Mother’s Immaculate Heart.
I am a God of justice and of right.
I am your heavenly Father.
I am the Carpenter, the One with the plan.
You are but children of Mine, creatures of the earth, and yet My love for you is so great. I gave you My only begotten Son as One offered for your sins and, men, you smite Me, your Father.
You ignore your Mother when I give you such gifts in your churches of her presence forever with you and the Holy Spirit working with her bringing forth your holiness.
I painted with My hand your Mother pleading to her young ones, and she appears everyday, and you ignore this sign and gift I give you.
What more could convince you? You want another sign and another while you sheepishly continue your sinful ways.
My children, My children, help Me to reach your brothers, oh please, they have plugged up their ears and covered their eyes.
How is it your Creator cries to the creatures and they ignore Him?
Now the beauty of one so fair July 5, 2000, I painted as a golden wonder before you and allowed such photography that all might know Our heavenly presence when Mary speaks in the
Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
And My Son delivers, in these rosaries, the message I give to you as your heavenly Father.
Oh children of the earth, be attentive and listen to Me, I plead as your heavenly Father that your wills be aligned to My will and you serve Me.
Oh children of Eve, your Mother Mary cries to Me, for she pleads your case, and I have given in to her requests that the children be spared if they turn from their ways and love their God.
She wanted to come to you as the Woman adorned in sunlight by day and fashioned in a special way by nightfall in golden mystical light in the dark night, as her favored children sing so fervently songs of praise and love to God, and they sing to her, a Mother who has never forgot them.
Oh children, listen to Me and help Me reach your willful brothers through your fervent prayers. My Son gave Himself as a Sacrifice for your sins, meriting the graces available to you the sinful children of Eve, and you will not even pray after I have granted this special gift of Mary on the building.
Your eyes do not see her, or you would have changed your ways by now.
What sign would you respond to, My silly earth?
I give you My Son with you in the Eucharist, and you do not treasure this gift as you should.
God remains with you today. Jesus, My Son, feeds you with His Body and Blood. He is truly present in His Divinity and Humanity. You need to pray as He has instructed, especially before the tabernacle.
Amen.
I am the Father, I have spoken, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.
Jesus speaks:
I am the Son of God, on this glorious feast sing songs of great praise to your God and love Him.
Unite to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and pray to be possessed by God.
Mary is your Mother, she is the one, pure, spotless, human person. She was conceived without sin, you must listen to her, it is the Father’s will. You must be brought forth from her Immaculate Heart, her spiritual womb, as a child of God, a child of the light.
Let the scales drop from your eyes as you sing praise and see, as never before, the glory and wonder of your God.
August 22, 2018 - Queenship of Mary
Psalm 23
The good Shepherd
Yahweh is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
In grassy meadows he lets me lie.
By tranquil streams he leads me
to restore my spirit.
He guides me in paths of saving justice
as befits his name.
Even were I to walk in a ravine as dark as death
I should fear no danger, for you are at my side.
Your staff and your crook are there to soothe me.
You prepare a table for me
under the eyes of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup brims over.
Kindness and faithful love pursue me
every day of my life.
I make my home in the house of Yahweh
for all time to come.
Matthew 20: 1-16
Parable of the labourers in the vineyard
‘Now the kingdom of Heaven is
like a landowner going out at daybreak to hire workers for his
vineyard. He made an agreement with the workers for one denarius
a day and sent them to his vineyard. Going out at about the
third hour he saw others standing idle in the market place and
said to them, "You go to my vineyard too and I will give you a
fair wage." So they went. At about the sixth hour and again at
about the ninth hour, he went out and did the same. Then at
about the eleventh hour he went out and found more men standing
around, and he said to them, "Why have you been standing here
idle all day?" "Because no one has hired us," they answered. He
said to them, "You go into my vineyard too." In the evening, the
owner of the vineyard said to his bailiff, "Call the workers and
pay them their wages, starting with the last arrivals and ending
with the first." So those who were hired at about the eleventh
hour came forward and received one denarius each. When the first
came, they expected to get more, but they too received one
denarius each. They took it, but grumbled at the landowner
saying, "The men who came last have done only one hour, and you
have treated them the same as us, though we have done a heavy
day’s work in all the heat." He answered one of them and said,
"My friend, I am not being unjust to you; did we not agree on
one denarius? Take your earnings and go. I choose to pay the
lastcomer as much as I pay you. Have I no right to do what I
like with my own? Why should you be envious because I am
generous?" Thus the last will be first, and the first, last.’
R. The 3 Loves
(1) Love of God
(2) Love of others
(3) Love of Self
Matthew 22:
34-40
‘Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?’ Jesus said to
him, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart,
with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and
the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your
neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole
Law, and the Prophets too.’
R. QUEEN VIRTUE IS LOVE
Faith is a participation of God's knowing activity –
We can have intelligence
We can will –
Genesis 1: 27
God created man in the image of himself, in the
image of God he created him, male and female he created them.
R. The human person is created in the image of God.
Intellect and will are the two most important
dimensions of the human person –
Baptism elevates our knowing and loving activity –
The intellect allows us to participate in
God's knowing activity –
The will allows us to participate in God's
loving activity –
Intellect and will allow us to reflect God!
August 22 Queenship of Mary
Luke 1: 46-55
And Mary said:
My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
from their thrones
and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
of Israel his servant,
mindful of his faithful love
—according to the promise
he made to our ancestors—
of his mercy to Abraham
and to his descendants for ever.
R. Two most important faculties of human
person –
(1) INTELLECT
(2) WILL
Man cannot know faith by natural reason –
In baptism we receive the supernatural
virtues of faith, hope and love.
Virtue of Hope
Hope gives us the capacity to desire God,
desire to live the life of faith and
trust God.
(1) desire to live the life of faith
(2) trust
*(1) desire to possess the vision of faith
(2) trust God will help us
Other Virtues
PRUDENCE – helps us make the right
choices according to God's will
JUSTICE
Song: I Am a God of Justice
R. JUSTICE
(1) to give others their due
(2) We must respect the rights of others
(3) Cannot harm their good name
- unless there is a good reason
- i.e. a teacher if a child is misbehaving
(abuse of others' good name is wrong)
JUSTICE – Rights of unborn
50,000,000 abortions?
FORTITUDE or COURAGE
Courage to handle the difficult
aspects of life
TEMPERANCE – handle sense pleasures
properly according to God's will
HUMILITY – realization of our creaturehood
and living according to this realization.
Mary did this perfectly
Humility doesn't mean I hide my
talents.
Humility helps me realize where
they came from –
If I don't recognize my gifts, I don't
thank God for my gifts.
| |
 |
helps me see my gifts –
thank God for them |
|
HUMILITY |
|
| |
helps me see what is
wrong in my spiritual
life and needs impovement |
A PROUD PERSON DOES NOT GROW
God resists the proud and gives grace
to the humble.
The gift God offers to the proud is humility –
The more humble you are the stronger
you are because you draw
your strength from Jesus.
Paul says: When I am weak, I am
strong in Jesus –
2 Corinthians 12: 9-10
but he has answered me,
‘My grace is enough for you: for power is at full
stretch in weakness.’ It is, then, about my weaknesses
that I am happiest of all to boast, so that the power of
Christ may rest upon me; and that is why I am glad of
weaknesses, insults, constraints, persecutions and
distress for Christ’s sake. For it is when I am weak
that I am strong.

Glorious Mysteries
The Resurrection
(1) Mark 16: 1-11
When the Sabbath was over, Mary of Magdala, Mary
the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices with which to go and anoint him.
And very early in the morning on the first day of the week they went to the tomb
when the sun had risen.
They had been saying to one another, ‘Who will roll away
the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?’ But when they looked they saw
that the stone—which was very big—had already been rolled back. On entering
the tomb they saw a young man in a white robe seated on the right–hand side,
and they were struck with amazement. But he said to them, ‘There is no need to
be so amazed. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified: he has
risen, he is not here. See, here is the place where they laid him. But you must
go and tell his disciples and Peter, "He is going ahead of you to Galilee;
that is where you will see him, just as he told you." ’ And the women
came out and ran away from the tomb because they were frightened out of their
wits; and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
Having risen in the morning on the first day of the week, he appeared first to
Mary of Magdala from whom he had cast out seven devils. She then went to those
who had been his companions, and who were mourning and in tears, and told them.
But they did not believe her when they heard her say that he was alive and that
she had seen him.
(2) From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.
"What I say to you in the dark, tell in the day-
light; what you hear in whispers, proclaim
from the housetops."
(Matthew 10:27)
Jesus Has Come to Give Us Life
Jesus: "This is the day celebrating My Resurrection (Easter).
The day of newness of life. I am Lord and Master. I am the Way, the Truth,
and the Life. Tell My people to come to Me if they wish to experience life
in abundance. I want to give all an ever greater share in the life of My
Resurrection. Without Me you cannot be happy, nor have peace, nor have real
joy. Tell My people to surrender to Me more and more. The more they do so,
the more they will experience My love, wisdom, power, peace, joy, happiness,
mercy, and goodness. Within My Heart My people will find these riches. I am
Lord and Master! Please listen to My words."
Reflection: Through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus has come
to give us life, and to give us this life in abundance.
When we were baptized, we were incorporated into Christ and His Church. When
we were baptized, we received the life of sanctifying grace. This life is a
created sharing in the life of the Trinity. Truly, we are called to live a God-like
existence according to the teaching and example of Jesus! It is our duty and our
privilege to develop our life of grace—our Christ-life—through our
participation in the Mass, through the reception of the sacraments, through
prayer, and through all other good works. Indeed, we are called to love God and
neighbor more and more.
What a glorious life has been given to us! In a spirit of thanksgiving, and
together with Mary our Mother, let us always strive to know Christ more
intimately, to love Him more ardently, and to follow Him more closely, so that
He will always bring us to a closer union with the Father in the unity of the
Holy Spirit.
Prayer: Father,
we are profoundly grateful for the life You have given to us through
Jesus and in the Holy Spirit. Through the constant intercession of
Mary our Mother, we ask for the grace to always be Your worthy sons
and daughters.
(3) From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.
The Holy Spirit
Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to
the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people
must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit
desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are
docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs
this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My
Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit
leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your
transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the
more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell
them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am
Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the
gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My
people!"
Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever
more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus,
the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy
Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each
day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother,
the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of
the Holy Spirit within us.
Prayer: Come,
Holy Spirit, fill us with your gifts of wisdom, understanding,
knowledge, counsel, fortitude, piety, and fear of the Lord. As we
dwell in the Heart of Mary, Your spouse, fashion us more and more
according to the Heart of Jesus.
(4) In Baptism we receive a sharing
of God's Life –
(5) Jesus paid a precious price
so we could be saved.

(7) Song: Glory, Glory, Glory Lord
(8) From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.
Surrender to the Heart of Jesus
Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people how I want them to
surrender to My Heart. I have taught you that the more you surrender to Me,
the greater is your peace, joy, and happiness. I have shown you that the
more you allow Me to control your life, to direct your life, the happier you
become. I have shown you how fruitless it is for a person to want to control
one's own life. A person has a choice: as a finite, weak creature to try to
control things himself, or in humility to throw himself into my arms, the
arms of One Who is all-loving and all-powerful.
"I give you the grace to increasingly surrender to My Heart. In
doing so you experience My love and power in an extraordinary way. Teach My
people these lessons. Tell them to listen to My words. I am Lord and Master,
and I desire all to heed My request! I give this message out of My great
love for My People!"
Reflection: We have a tendency to want to control our own destiny.
We find it difficult at times--sometimes very difficult--to abandon ourselves
to God. We find it difficult to let go and to surrender completely to Christ,
to trust Him completely.
And yet, this is what we must do to achieve our ongoing sanctification.
Why should we be afraid to surrender? As Jesus tells us above, who would
you rather depend on--a weak, finite self, or the loving and omnipotent
God?
St. Paul tells us:
So I shall be very happy to make my weaknesses my special boast so
that the power of Christ may stay over me, and that is why I am content
with my weaknesses, and with insults, hardships, persecutions, and the
agonies I go through for Christ's sake. For it is when I am weak that I
am strong (2 Corinthians 12:9-10).
Prayer:
Jesus, in and through You, and guided by the Holy Spirit, we ask
Your Father for an increase in trust. We ask for the grace to more
and more surrender to Your Heart. We ask our Mother Mary to assist
us in this request.
(9) Jesus wants to bring us to
life with Him eternally in
heaven.

The Ascension
(1) May 25, 1995 I Am Alive
R. Prayer
is a lifting up of our minds and hearts to God. Who am I that I can
change any event that is occurring in the lives of another, that I can
affect the outcome of any event? I am a child of my Father. My Father is
the Almighty God. How I love my dear Father. He is God and He has
created me in His own image and likeness. My beloved, dear Father, how I
love You that You give me such gifts - that You allow me to share in
Your life!
You are the Father of Jesus and You are My Father.
Thank You, My Father, for all Your gifts and for Your life. Who am I
that I can affect the life of any person?
I am a child of God. I call
on my dear Father and He loves me so, He listens to me. I lift my heart
to You, my dear beloved Father and You listen to little me and You care
for me so much. I call upon God and the Almighty God cares for me with
such love that He listens.

May 25, 1995 continues
Jesus: Such
truths have been given to you from My Father because of His great love
for you. You are far more precious than the finest pearls, My beloved
child. The Father so loved you He gave His Son so that you would have
life. He gave His Son as a sacrifice for you. The Father gives to you
His life through Jesus, His Son. You partake in His Divine life.
I am Jesus,
Son of the Living God. My life I give to you, I live in your being, My
beloved, I impart to you My Divine life.
How many turn
their backs on the great gift of this life given from the Father. To
know this life and to know all those who have rejected this great gift!
I am the Almighty God, My power is endless.
The power and might you felt
within yourself is only a small sampling of My immense power.
I am God and I am allowing you to experience what
you are experiencing to spread My love to others. Your immense
understanding into these mysteries will help you speak and write them
for others.

May 25, 1995 continues
Jesus:
I have chosen
you as an instrument to touch many hearts and bring them to
My divine love. Great gifts and understandings into these
mysteries I am giving to you. You will lead many priests to
the love of God.
I am alive. I
am God. I long to be loved by man and many have turned their backs on Me
and forgotten Me. You must tell them all I am allowing you to
experience, these sufferings and understandings into My deep love.
This is the beginning of
many days when I will allow you to experience the rejection I felt from
those I loved. Your heart is in immense pain for the souls who reject Me
despite My love for them.
I beg you to speak and
write. Make reparation for souls that have forgotten My love. Spread the
love of My Sacred Heart and My Mother’s heart, throughout the world.
I love, I
love, I love My beloved souls. I beg you to tell them. I beg Fr. Carter
to tell every soul on this earth of My love. You will continue to suffer
such pain and anguish in your heart. Suffer in silence for souls. I love
so deeply and am so gravely offended!

May 25, 1995 continues
Jesus:
I am Jesus, My dear, little child. I am alive and in this
world. I live in the hearts of men, I live in the
consecrated Host, I am forgotten and ignored and treated
with such dishonor.
Speak for Me,
I beg you to spread this love throughout this earth. I am sending you as
missionaries into this world.
On this Ascension Thursday, I have given you great
sufferings and great joy. I have allowed you to experience the highest
ecstasies in My love and plunge you into deep pain in your heart for
those who reject Me.
You, I send as missionaries
to carry out the work I have begun. Be fearless and pray to the Spirit.
This day I am giving you abundant graces to speak, and through this
speaking, others are sent into this world as My apostles.
(5) May
25, 1995 continues
Jesus: It
is through the Shepherds of Christ Movement My love will be spread.
Circulate My messages and rosary meditations. The love of the two Hearts
will be known throughout this world through these messages and rosary
meditations.
You will be fearless, everyone I send
to you is a messenger to carry out My love. Circulate these letters with
FIRE for I am delivering them to you in FIRE.
I am Jesus Christ, the
Living God. I am allowing you to experience My life, alive in you and
giving you these emotions to spread My love.
(6) May
25, 1995 continues
Jesus: On
this Ascension Thursday, I beg you to carry out the message to this
world. Live My life in your life, every moment My life living within
you.
I am the Way,
I am the Truth, I am the Life. I have commissioned you to go out and to
carry this message - the message of My immense love for ALL mankind,
including My burning love for My priests and religious. Souls will turn
their hearts to Me from these letters. This is the mighty medicine to
turn a sick, cold world to hearts filled with the love of God.
Prayer, My
beloved ones, is the lifting up of your minds and hearts to God. When
you intercede to Me through My Mother’s heart, I will pour out My
greatest mercy.
(7) May
25, 1995 continues
Jesus: I
will not refuse hearts begging for grace for their loved ones. Pray from
your whole being. Let My life live in you.
You can pray
and ask God to send help. You do not know the power of a heartfelt
prayer. I listen to your prayers. The Father and Holy Spirit are
listening to your prayers. The more you unite with God, the greater your
intercessory prayer. I am Jesus. I am alive this day. I ask you to
spread My messages to the world. I am crying out in your heart on this
Ascension Thursday. I ascended into heaven and I have left behind you to
carry out what I began. I am with you. I am alive this day. I will unite
with you and the earth will know the power of the Almighty God. I am
Jesus Christ, Chief Shepherd of the flock. Lead My little ones home -
home to the burning embers of My Most Sacred Heart, through My Mother’s
heart.
(8) May
25, 1995 continues
R. I
cried so hard, I have never been so immersed in heartache. I heard Him
shout, “I Am Alive, I Am Alive.” I cried so hard, I could hardly write.
I know Him.
He is alive in my being. My soul is filled with His love. I live the
life of Jesus and Mary in my life. I love His life, her life - Their
presence forever with me. From this great gift, these rosary
meditations, His life has become one with mine. I feel His life in the
Mass. I hear Mary under the cross. I hear the cries for the souls going
to hell for their willfulness and sins. I hear the laments of Jesus in
the tabernacle - how He longs and thirsts for souls and is neglected and
ignored. I hear Him tell of the sacrileges committed against the Holy
Eucharist.
(9) May
25, 1995 continues
R. I
heard Him this day. I felt His presence and the presence of the Almighty
God as He cries out, “I am alive, I am alive, I am alive.”
He is alive. We have the
Mass. He gives us Himself in the Eucharist. Mary is appearing, we are
given this rosary. We are sent as soldiers by Him in the Shepherds of
Christ. We are thirsting for union with Him, sent by Him, apostles to go
out to this world and spread His love, one with the Eucharistic Heart of
Jesus, one with the Trinity. He will light this earth with
hearts on fire for love of Him.
I come to you with greatest love, I am
your loving Savior, I am your God, I died for you, I come to you this
day.
(10) May 25, 1995 continues
R. The earth shakes
and the Son of Man appears. He lives in the hearts of all. I want hearts
on FIRE for love of Me. I want vibrancy and love from My beloved ones.
Hold not back My love from this world.
I adore
you, Oh Lord, I praise you, I worship you, I bless Him with my whole
soul. My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord and holy, holy is His
name! Jesus wants souls that are holy, on fire with the love of Jesus.
Make novenas to the Holy Spirit to have hearts on FIRE with the love of
God. Sound the trumpet, sound the gong - Jesus LIVES - He lives this
day! Alleluia.
Sunday is
a special day to praise Him, to love Him, to pray to Him - His day to be
honored and worshipped in a special way. Pray from a pure and holy
heart, a heart that sings for love of the Lord. Pray from your whole
being.

When Pentecost
day came round, they had all met together, when suddenly there came
from heaven a sound as of a violent wind which filled the entire
house in which they were sitting; and there appeared to them tongues
as of fire; these separated and came to rest on the head of each of
them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
different languages as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves.

(7) February 23, 1994 A City on a Hill Shines to the World
Jesus: I am the light of the world. A city on a hill
will shine to the world. You at the Center will be this city when you are
filled to the brim with the love of Jesus. What power, what might, to have
each person a personal spouse of Jesus Christ! This is the light to the
darkened world. The love of Jesus radiates from the very being of those who
love Him. What light when all together are lifted by His love abounding deep
within their breasts!
I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. My
life is the life inside that cannot be contained. It is bursting and budding
forth. My life is the real life. To possess the life of Christ within your
breast! Such power! I am the city set on a hill that will stand united and
shine to this world. You at this Center will be this city. You will be the
true Center that places the mark on this world.
The love of Christ, abounding deep within
the breasts of all, will be the power and the might. Pray the Prayer for Union
with Jesus. I will operate in the hearts of all there and minister to My sick
world. I am the Heart of Jesus. I am on fire with love of each and every soul.
When My love is found in all the hearts there, the light of God will shine to
this world!
You are the city, set on a hill, that
shines to the darkened world. I will light the world with the love of Jesus
that shines in the hearts of those who are fed there. My light is so bright.
My power is endless. You are the light to the dark world. You contain the
mighty medicine to bring My sick ones to Me. You will bring so many back to Me
and My intense love, burning so brightly for all!
I am the power. I am the might. He who
abides in Me will have the light of life. I give Myself to you that you will
live. You will radiate My presence from your very being. My light is the
brightest light. I will live in the hearts of all who come to you for their
feeding. Enkindle in them the love for My most Sacred Heart. It is on fire for
love of you. It cannot be contained. It will live in all hearts who come to
you to be fed.
You are the key to enkindle this burning
love of Jesus in the hearts of so many. Many will know Jesus through your love
of Me. Read these letters every day for I am truly speaking to you here. I
love each child so dearly and want to have an intimate union with that child.
Teach all about the burning love of Jesus. Read My messages with your heart on
fire so you can tell all of My ardent love for them.
I long to be close to them. I am a
person. I am God, on fire for love of My people. Bring all to the ardent love
of Jesus. Mary is by My side constantly. Where I am, she is there. She wants
all to be led to My ardent, longing love. Teach all about My love. Fill them
so they are overflowing in their hearts. This is the mighty medicine. It is My
letter of intense, ardent love for My people.
I am truly here, little ones. I am Jesus,
Son of the Living God. I will live strongly in the hearts of all who come to
you. You will be the key. Focus on your intense love of Me. Read My letters as
a cookbook for intimacy with Me. My love waits for each person and I tell you
here how to be close to Me. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus on fire for love of
you. I am longing for you to come and be with Me in silence. I will give you
all you need.
I am the Alpha. I am the Omega. I am your
all. I am God, one, true and magnificent, and I come to you with ardent love
in Holy Communion and in the tabernacle. I am present, Body and Blood, Soul
and Divinity. I am waiting. Our love affair waits and it depends on you. I am
there and I am waiting. You keep us apart.
Tell them how I long for them and have
all they need. The love of Christ will light their city. You will stand as the
lighted city in darkness. My love will be that by which you light this dark
world. Oh, such power, such might! The love of God will reign in the hearts of
all you touch. You are My vessel to draw this world to the love of Jesus.
Read and study My letters and be taught
about My ardent love. I am Jesus Christ and I am teaching you about My love on
fire for all. Come and be powered by the hand of God. My love will rock the
world off its rocker when it reigns in the hearts of those who come to you. I
love you so! You are My beloved. I will use you to light My dark world. You
will shine as candles in the darkest night and you will be the instruments I
use to light their wicks. I am God and I love them so dearly!
This is My love for all. Power and might
will shine forth on the land. I am the brightest light. Look into the light
for the light. Look into the arms of Jesus. I will light this world through
you. Alleluia. And the angels sang and the choirs of heaven were heard for the
earth proclaimed the Love of Jesus. Alleluia

(8) February 23, 1994 - I Died for You (excerpt)
Jesus:
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.
