                Given February 29, 2012

                R. Happiness for man can only be
                achieved by controlling himself
                controlling his free will and
                with right reason —

                    A person that continues in sin
                distorts his vision, his reality
                is altered.

                    The more we do what God wants,
                seek His will, have our focus on
                the Word living in us, obeying
                the 10 Commandments, living
                according to the teachings of
                the Church — the more ones reality
                is as it truly is —

                Man is body and soul —

                Man is to live in the truth and
                    to seek to know and live in
                    goodness. God is all good.

                Man has a free will and must
                    control his passions by
                    his free will and right
                    reason —

                If a man gives in more and more into
                    the deadly sins —
                    pride, greed, envy, wrath, lust, gluttony, and slothfulness
                    his actions become vices —

                Sinfulness is a place of darkness
                and misery inside — a deadening of
                that life he could know —
                God created us and gives us
                baptism — God wants us to be
                good and live by His rules — live
                virtuously —

                Living this way helps us to be
                more and more united to God
                because the virtuous man
                living in truth and goodness,
                is a holy man —

                The man giving into pride and
                    anger, seeking power, being
                    jealous and envious, slothful
                    and giving into his passions
                    with distorted reasoning
                    is a man who is angry
                    inside for rebelling against
                    the very reason God
                    created him —
                    to love God and love others
                    as himself —

                The man giving into the deadly
                    sins is 'caved in' and
                    really miserable

                    Passions can be good — a
                zeal to do good, to do God's will,
                but anger where another acts
                in rage against their brother
                is wrong.

                    There is passive-aggressive
                and aggressive ways of acting
                out anger —

                    The devil works in secret — he
                can tempt someone to do evil
                and if the person gives in he
                then tries to tempts the person to deny
                the sin if it is revealed —

                The devil further can tempt
                the person to take revenge for
                this evil being brought out
                into the open —

                    It is like the ball game where
                the player is not acting as he
                should and refusing direction.
                How could that team win when
                the person is not a team player
                and when guided to do what they
                should, they punish those in
                charge —

                    The devil wants a man to
                seek power and control and
                the person disobeying just
                authority under God is not
                doing God's will, but he is
                serving satan.

                    When the person in charge
                tries to do the work and correct
                the sin, the other can try to
                show how they have the
                power, to do as they please and can
                use force to force their
                altered reality and rules
                on a place trying to operate truthfully.
                Satan wants to rule!!

                    He tempts the person seeking
                power and force to implement
                his rule against God's rules.
                The man's reality is altered because
                of his disobedience and living
                in anger, jealousy and vices
                of the deadly sins.

                    Jesus says: Like a man with
                his head buried in the sand,
                not living by My truth and
                goodness and rules!!

                R. Corporations are set up with
                directors, officers etc. so no
                man can run off and say
                I do what I want and I answer
                to no one.

                    We are to live in the truth —
                    live in right reason —
                    doing God's will —
                    living under God's commandments,
                    according to the Word of God, the
                    Gospel, which is the right reality —

                We as members of the Church are
                    given the right reasoning in
                    the Catholic Church, according
                    to the Catechism, and the Church's
                    teachings.

Wisdom 3: 1-9

But the souls of the upright are in the hands of God, 
and no torment can touch them. 
To the unenlightened, they appeared to die, 
their departure was regarded as disaster, 
their leaving us like annihilation; 
but they are at peace. 
If, as it seemed to us, they suffered punishment, 
their hope was rich with immortality; 
slight was their correction, great will their blessings be. 
God was putting them to the test 
and has proved them worthy to be with him; 
he has tested them like gold in a furnace, 
and accepted them as a perfect burnt offering. 
At their time of visitation, they will shine out; 
as sparks run through the stubble, so will they. 
They will judge nations, rule over peoples, 
and the Lord will be their king for ever. 
Those who trust in him will understand the truth, 
those who are faithful will live with him in love; 
for grace and mercy await his holy ones, 
and he intervenes on behalf of his chosen.

   

Psalm 23: 1-6

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.

      

1 Corinthians 13: 1-13  

Though I command languages both human and angelic—if I speak without love, I am no more than a gong booming or a cymbal clashing. And though I have the power of prophecy, to penetrate all mysteries and knowledge, and though I have all the faith necessary to move mountains—if I am without love, I am nothing. Though I should give away to the poor all that I possess, and even give up my body to be burned—if I am without love, it will do me no good whatever. 

    Love is always patient and kind; love is never jealous; love is not boastful or conceited, it is never rude and never seeks its own advantage, it does not take offence or store up grievances. Love does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but finds its joy in the truth. It is always ready to make allowances, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes. 

    Love never comes to an end. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if tongues, they will fall silent; and if knowledge, it will be done away with. For we know only imperfectly, and we prophesy imperfectly; but once perfection comes, all imperfect things will be done away with. When I was a child, I used to talk like a child, and see things as a child does, and think like a child; but now that I have become an adult, I have finished with all childish ways. Now we see only reflections in a mirror, mere riddles, but then we shall be seeing face to face. Now I can know only imperfectly; but then I shall know just as fully as I am myself known. 

    As it is, these remain: faith, hope and love, the three of them; and the greatest of them is love.

   

John 14: 1-7

        Do not let your hearts be troubled. 
        You trust in God, trust also in me. 
        In my Father’s house 
            there are many places to live in; 
        otherwise I would have told you. 
        I am going now to prepare a place for you, 
        and after I have gone 
            and prepared you a place, 
        I shall return to take you to myself, 
        so that you may be with me 
        where I am. 
        You know the way 
            to the place where I am going. 

        Thomas said, ‘Lord, we do not know where you are going, so how can we know the way?’ Jesus said: 

            I am the Way; I am Truth and Life. 
        No one can come to the Father 
            except through me. 
        If you know me, 
            you will know my Father too. 
        From this moment you know him 
            and have seen him. 

 

                R. God's Word —

                Death is not the end — it is only a transition point —

                God wants us to go to heaven

                1st reading — 100 years before Christ —

                    the Jews were told to give up their faith —
                    they were persecuted —
                    they thought they did all God wanted and they were
                        suffering —
                    But this happens to us —
                    The guy who doesn't believe in God was called a fool —
                    God gives us vision to know God's will —

                St. Paul tells us about love in the second
                    reading. God is love —

                Gospel before the last supper —
                    Do not let your hearts be troubled
                    Have faith in Me —
                    Jesus left to prepare a place for us
                        in heaven —

                At a funeral - they sprinkle holy water to
                    remind us of baptism —
                    We pray for one another so we are
                        ready to meet the Lord.

                Message received after rosary prayed at 6:30p.m.

                First Friday, April 7, 1995

                Jesus: My dear children:

Satan is running rampant. I call you to love. You do not know the power of love. Satan aims to stop the good work that is being accomplished here. he works on you through those closest to you. You must fight the temptation to give in when you feel you are offended by others.

My way is the way of love. Always through My entire Passion I was silent. I call you to learn silence, to not answer back when you are being attacked. My way is love.

The more you walk in My ways, the more you unite and become one with Me, the more power you will have in spreading My love to this world. I work through you.

But a heart of love, a pure heart is united ever so closely to My Heart. Try to be more and more like Me, My beloved. Model yourselves after My Mother. She mothers you as she mothered Me.

My way is not easy. It takes discipline and it is hard, but the reward that you receive is closer union with My Heart. Watch your tongue for satan will try to taunt you by those closest to you and cause division. He wants this work stopped here. You are My specially chosen ones. Do not give in to his tactics.

I am forever with you guarding you. You are learning lessons this day, lessons that will lead you to greater holiness.

You are My beloved ones and I love you.  

     

Message received after Rosary

Shepherds of Christ Meeting

April 18, 1995

Jesus: My dear sweet, beloved children:

How I long to be so close to each of you. How it makes My Heart so glad to see you here. You have come to pray for My beloved priests. Satan is waging a war against the Catholic Church. Satan wants to wipe out the priests. Your prayers are so important, My beloved ones.

There are so many priests that have turned from My Heart - My beloved ones that I have chosen and given such gifts to. Satan is pressing down on their hearts. It is through your prayers that many will turn from their ways. I beg you to pray, pray earnestly from the deepest part of your heart for My beloved religious.

This world has turned cold and forgotten God. How they struggle to e holy in a world that is godless. People do not want to turn from their ways. They want their own wills. You are My soldiers that I send into this world to spread the love of My Sacred Heart.

Please, pray, pray, pray! Souls will be lost and condemned to the fires of hell. How I suffered so much anguish in the Garden for the souls of My beloved ones, those that I knew would be condemned to the fires of hell.

My precious ones, I call you as missionaries to go out into this world and to spread this love, the love that I have for you. Oh, how I love you, My dear, beloved ones. If you knew only the slightest amount of My love, you would never fear. Come and be with Me. Be alone! Let Me wrap you in My arms! Let Me hold you and take you so deep into My Heart where I love you with the dearest love.

My dear little ones, please listen to My call. You are chosen. I will lead you on your way. When I called you, I knew that you would listen. You will be united deeply with Me. Come to the Eucharist. Pray every prayer in union with Me and with My Mother. Be one with Me. Your prayers are so powerful united in deep union with Me. Pray to the Father, in union with the Mass in the Holy Spirit, through the powerful intercession of the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory, through the intercession of Mary your Mother. How powerful are your prayers and sacrifices. How your life, lived doing the Will of the Father with love, will help so many souls to turn from their ways.

I call you. Will you answer? I gave My blood for you. I gave My blood for each and every soul. What you do every moment of your day, will make such a difference. Think of a soul saying to you: "I turned my life to God because of your example". Live to imitate My life and the life of My Mother for people are watching you. You wear your crucifixes and they know that you call yourself religious. You teach so much by your example. Be holy My beloved ones. Stay forever fixed in My loving Heart for I love you with the deepest, deepest love.

I am Jesus, your Beloved Savior.

Song: I come to you with greatest love, etc.

Shepherds of Christ Meeting

April 25, 1995

Mary: My dear, beloved children:

Today, on April 25, 1995, I come to you to deliver a message for you, my special ones that are called to this Shepherds of Christ Ministries.

I lead you into the world to spread the love of my most precious Son, whose beating, burning Heart, is filled with love for each precious soul, that he gave His life, that He suffered and died, for each soul. He rose on the third day to give each soul new life.

You have been called to pray for your priests. Priests are suffering. They are suffering in this world. You must pray fervently for the priests, for priests need to center their lives on the Heart of my Son. Give messages about Jesus in the Eucharist to all priests.

Priests need to feed the people with the love of my Son, Jesus.

Pray fervently so that they will not be tempted to turn away from His Heart.

My Heart will triumph and His Heart will reign. There will be an era of peace but many souls will suffer, some to eternal damnation for their willfulness and disobedience.

People have forgotten God. They have made this world their end. I ask you to pray for souls, to pray for the priests. The priest must feed the people with the fire of Jesus' love.

You are my chosen ones. I come to you, your Heavenly Mother, and ask you to take this commitment in the Shepherds of Christ seriously.

My little ones, pray fervently every day for priests and for souls. Keep your hearts ever pure and fixed on my Son, Jesus. How He loves each one of you and longs to be so united to you.

I am Mary, your Mother, and thank you for responding to my request.

Mary: I am Mary, your Mother. I call out to you to come to the Heart of My Son. Come and find shelter from the cold world in His Heart.

Consecrate your lives to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Trust in God in your lives!!

You are being guarded by the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I am watching after you, My Beloved ones.

Surrender to the Heart of My Son. His Heart is burning and on fire for love of you. Go to Him and talk to Him. Know that every second He is inside of you and you are never alone. He does not abandon you.

Be saturated with His life. Pray constantly to Him.

You are never alone!

I am Mary, your Mother, and where you walk, I walk beside you, protecting you, protecting you with My Mantle.

I love you with my most motherly love.

I am Mary, your Mother, and thank you for responding to My call.


   

 

Joyful Mysteries

Shepherds of Christ Meeting
Fifth Week of Easter
The Father has a Plan

May 16, 1995, Tuesday

 

The Annunciation

1. R. The Father has a Plan.

2. R. The angel Gabriel appeared to the Virgin Mary and asked her to be the Mother of God.

3. R. Such love Mary has for the Father. She said "yes", always complying to the Father's will for she wanted to please her Beloved Father.

4. John 1: 14  The Word became flesh, he lived among us,...

5. R. Such an event!

6. R. This all occurs in such quietness.

7. Luke 1: 35  The angel answered, ‘The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will cover you with its shadow. And so the child will be holy and will be called Son of God.

8. R. Mary's most ardent desire was to please the Father, to be a faithful daughter to Him, a little child obeying her Father.

9. R. God the Father so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son.

10. R. And Jesus came a baby to the earth!

(Song between decades: Ave, Ave, Ave Maria, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria)

  

The Visitation

1. R. Mary, filled with joy to carry the life of God within her, makes haste to her cousin Elizabeth's to share the good news.

2. R. Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cries out: "Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb"!

3. R. Mary, filled with the Holy Spirit, cries out in a loud voice the Magnificat.

4. Song: My soul rejoices

5. R. The child within Elizabeth's womb leapt for joy at the presence of the Almighty God.

6. R. The Child Jesus, hidden from view in the womb of the Virgin Mary! God, truly present within Mary!

7. R. Jesus remains truly present in the Tabernacle this day, the same as the day that Mary carried Him in her womb.

8. R. We are all part of the Father's Plan. We are all players in this Plan. First, the angel appeared to Mary, now there are two players, Mary and Elizabeth. There were two more players, the Child Jesus and John in the womb of Elizabeth.

9. R. Why are we anxious when the Father has a Plan? All we need do is comply to His will.

10. R. These are the mysteries of the rosary, the lives of Jesus and Mary. These are the Joyful Mysteries for Jesus came to this earth!

(Song between decades: Ave, Ave, Ave Maria, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria)

 

The Birth of Jesus

1. R. What child is this born so humbly in a stable? It is Jesus Christ, the Son of God!

2. R. Joseph knocked on the door of the Inns and they were all full.

3. R. When Jesus stands at the door of our heart, do we close our heart and tell Him that there is no room?

4. R. A little baby, a baby so lovable! Jesus comes into this world a lovable, little baby for He wants to be loved by all.

5. R. Jesus waits at the door of our hearts for our love.

6. R. Jesus waits, truly present in the Tabernacle, the same as the day He was born in Bethlehem, Jesus waits for our love.

7. R. Jesus outpours to us His Divine Love and His Divine Life. What an exchange!

8. Jesus: I wait at the door of your heart. I wait for you to open to Me.

9. R. The stars shone brightly above the stable when Jesus was born!

10. R. Are we blind that we miss the signs that He sends to us this day? His beautiful Mother appears, adorned in light, to lead us to His Most Sacred Heart.

(Song between decades: Ave, Ave, Ave Maria, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria)

 

Presentation of Jesus in the Temple

1. R. Jesus waits for us. The Heart of Jesus a fountain of Mercy and Love.

2. R. Joseph and Mary took the Child Jesus to the Temple.

3. R. Simeon told them of the sufferings to come.

4. R. Think of the Heart of Mary! It was pierced with a sword at the prophecy of Simeon.

5. R. Such quietness in the lives of Jesus and Mary! Such joy that the Child Jesus is born on the earth!

6. R. Mary looks at her tender child, Mary looks into His tender, dainty eyes. She knows the sufferings that are at hand.

7. R. Mary carried this prophecy deep within her heart.

8. R. The Child Jesus knew of His mission here on this earth.

9. R. Such quietness in the lives of Joseph, Mary and Jesus. Following the Father's Plan, there were not a roll of trumpets or blare of drums, just compliance to the Father's will and living in great peace.

10. R. More players had entered the scene: the prophet Simeon and Anna the prophetess.

(Song between decades: Ave, Ave, Ave Maria, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria)

 

The Finding of Jesus in the Temple

5. R. They find Him in the Temple answering questions and asking questions of the doctors.

6. R. Jesus was twelve years old and He was in the Temple. They are astonished at His wisdom and knowledge.

7. Song: And God is on the Earth

8. R. Such joy that Jesus, the Son of God, came a baby. God the Father sent His Son, the Savior of the world.

Song: A Song from Jesus

9. R. We are the lost little children of the world that need to be guided and led closer and closer to our God, our Father in Heaven.

10. R. The Father has a Plan. Look how Mary and Jesus and Joseph followed this Plan throughout the Joyful Mysteries in peace and quietness for They knew that He had a Plan and They knew that Their peace and harmony would come in following His Divine Plan.

(Song between decades: Ave, Ave, Ave Maria, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria)

 

This rosary was prayed in Our Mother of Sorrows Chapel during the Shepherds of Christ Meeting. All Fifteen decades of the rosary were prayed this evening.

Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle B     The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A    The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C    In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B    At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #1 - CD. - Christ is Our Strength - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our-selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10

His voice is so powerful as he read each Newsletter from his heart and soul. "Every man has his own share in the redemption. Each one is also called to share in that suffering through which the redemption was accomplished. He is called to share in that suffering through which all human suffering has also been redeemed. In bringing about the redemption through suffering, Christ has also raised human suffering to the level of the redemption. Thus each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ..." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
