A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul

Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.


Messenger: When I sin I hurt Jesus and I love Him, I do not want to hurt Him. He paid the price for all our sins. Our pride, our selfishness when we hurt our brothers. When we hurt each other we are doing it to Jesus.

Jesus wants us to love Him and sing songs of praise and honor and love to Him and the Father and the Holy Spirit. Let us this season of Holy Week beg for the grace to love and serve and praise God. This week let us say often, "Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in Thee." Let us try to put aside our worry in times of prayer that we can more fully communicate our love and devotion to Jesus, to His most Sacred Heart and communicate our great love for the Father and the Holy Spirit. Let us comfort His aching Heart. During the Passion, His thirst was quenched by the love we give Him today. Let us comfort His grieving Heart by honoring and praising Him and loving Him. Let us really focus on our God this week and give Him our sweetest love. Jesus we love Thee so much. "Sacred Heart of Jesus, we place our trust in Thee."

Our beloved God, we worship and thank You for all Your gifts to us. We are sorry we have offended You with our sins and we thank You for the gift of Jesus Who is our Savior. We love You so much, our God, You are our Savior, please forgive us for our awful sins that hurt You. We are sorry for our sins and the sins of the whole human race.

On May 10, 1994, Jesus told me He would give me rosary meditations He wished circulated.

The following set of rosary meditations were put together from messages received May 10, 1994, April 25, 1994 (from Medjugorje), and May 25, 1994.

The meditation was put together basically on May 10, 1994, and the message from Mary May 25, 1994, added later.

Jesus speaks: I love you to love Me and sing to Me and want to be with Me. I love you to take time to pray to Me. I am with you.

On this Holy Monday, I ask these messages from the rosary dated May 10, 1994, be placed on the Internet with the additional message from Mary given May 25, 1994.

I further request the writing August 23, 1993, be printed here this day.

I love you, Jesus.


Meditations on the Rosary

The Sorrowful Mysteries

1. The Agony in the Garden.

Jesus speaks: My agony, I knew full well every blow, every wound, the crowning, the crucifixion. I saw My Mother’s suffering. I knew all that would happen. I sweat Blood. I suffered so much mental anguish for you, beloved one, for you. I said, "yes" to all I knew would follow, "yes" for you, knowing how you one day would love Me too! Oh, how I love you. Will you say "yes" to the suffering I send to you? Will you say "yes" to loving My beloved ones? Say, "YES" to Me today. I loved you so!

2. The Scourging at the Pillar

Mary speaks: I am the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I love you with my tender Heart. I heard the blows they gave my Son. I scarce could look up. I heard the blows, the awful blows. My Son stood in silence while they beat Him.

Jesus speaks: All the whipping, all the brutality, the blows covered My entire Body. I bled profusely. I stood in My own Blood. These were My beloved ones who beat Me. They tore My flesh until it hung from My Body and they laughed at their handiwork.

Do your brothers persecute you and say mean things to you? Do as I did, respond with love. Pray for their conversion. Live to help them get to heaven.

3. The Crowning with Thorns

Jesus speaks: Think of someone you love very deeply yelling awful accusations at you. How, how it wounds your heart. My child! I sat there while they crowned Me with thorns and hollered awful accusations at Me. They were My beloved ones. Yet they stood there spitting at Me and hollering awful things at Me. Those who I dearly loved mocked Me and insulted Me and hurled their ugly hatred and lies at Me. I accepted all they did with a bleeding Heart and forgave them and loved them still.

Oh, you do not know suffering. This world is wounding My aching Heart. People are indifferent and hateful. They mistreat one another and are proud of their actions. Pray for your beloved persecutors. Don’t hate them. Act as I did toward those who tore My flesh and mocked Me. They were so engulfed in darkness. They did not know what they were doing.

All that matters is how you love Me and one another. Love those who hate you. My way is a hard way. You pick up your cross. When they hurt you and holler at you, look to heaven and praise the Lord for the trial. It is in suffering you are drawn closer to My precious Heart. I shed My Blood for you. I suffered for you. Will you not suffer when I ask you to?

4. The Carrying of the Cross

Mary speaks: I scarce could stand to walk the way with Him! I was so sick at what they had done, but I wanted to be with my Son. I walked by the grace of God.

Jesus speaks: My suffering was intensified by the sorrow and suffering of My Mother. My eyes met hers and I saw her red, teary face. All they did to Me, but to watch My beloved Mother suffer! She heard the cross as it thumped up the hill. The sounds were so loud and at the sight she had to look away.

Stand by Me and walk this road to Calvary. Listen and see My beaten Body. Hear the jeers of the crowd. Hear the thumping of the cross. Listen when it falls hard on Me and I can scarce go on any more. Walk with Me and be there. Then, think of your little crosses I ask you to carry. Do not put them down. Accept them for Me. It is in your crosses you are drawn closer to Me. I endured all this suffering for deep and ardent love of you and I would do it today for you alone.

5. The Crucifixion

Mary speaks (May 25, 1994): As tenderly as I beheld my beautiful Son in my arms with such love, I watched His death on the cross with such anguish. My Heart was torn apart by the sight of Him hanging in such pain. I scarce could stand. I was held up by my beloved John. Joy and pain, the pain to behold Him and His suffering and the joy to know your salvation was won through His Blood.

Such lamenting. I could not cry deep enough for the anguish I felt. His Blood was spent. His life was given. He did this, my child, for love of you. I am your Mother. I love you, my precious ones. I love you as I love my beautiful Son, Jesus.

I am Mary, your beloved Mother. Call to me. I know your sufferings. I will comfort you. I suffered for love of you. You are so precious to us. Live in the love of my Son. He is with you this day in the Eucharist. I am Mary, your Mother. Thank you for responding to my call.

Jesus speaks: The crucifixion. How do I tell you that I died for you? Do you even know I would do it today, just for you? They nailed My beautiful hands and feet to the cross. Big gigantic nails they pounded into My precious hands. Such hard hearts. They pounded the nails through My feet. Blood squirted out and they continued. Such hardness of hearts. Look at your hands, My child. Would you allow someone to nail them to a cross? Would you withstand this torture for love? This is My love for you. It is the love that made Me lay down My life for you.

I call you to surrender. Open your arms as I did when I died on the cross. Let all your worldly possessions drop around you and you will experience the joy of being free, of being united to Me, of letting go and of knowing that I, God, tend to your every need. To My death on the cross I loved you, and I love you this way this very day. Let go and give it all to Me. I will care for you far better than you could for yourself. I am God and I love you more than you can love yourself.

Messenger: Jesus is dead, hanging on the cross, arms outstretched. His feet are not even on the ground. He is hanging by nails on a piece of wood. What do we hold on to? He wants us in midair, in total surrender.

Jesus speaks: Oh, little ones, how you squander your possessions. How you hold on to people. How you won’t let go. See Me in total surrender. I gave My very life for you. What do you hold on to, My little ones? Little bits and pieces you give to Me and you hold tight to your lives. All will go up in smoke and only the things of God will remain. Not one pair of shoes do you take with you. Only your love, given to God and to others!

March 29, 1999  -  Second Message

Messenger: On August 23, 1993 I asked Jesus to tell me about His Passion. I was praying on my deck and He gave me the following writing with the promise to teach me more and more about His Passion.

This was the beginning of Jesus revealing to me so much about His great love for us through His Passion.


On His Passion - August 23, 1993

My dear child,
I was condemned to death, death on a cross. They gave Me a big cross and made Me carry it. They stood around and glared at Me. It weighed on My shoulder and I pulled at it until it finally moved. Every step was almost impossible as I dragged it, weighing so heavily on My shoulders.

My shoulder felt as if the bones inside would crack and the cross would fall through to the ground. I couldn’t drag it any more. I tried, I fell. I fell and its weight fell on Me. A guard hit Me with something sharp. It really hurt because he wanted Me to move, and fast! People were watching -- on with the show! How dare I fall in the middle of the show! He hit Me again and the blow really stung Me. I got up because it hurt so badly. I tried to walk on.

My Mother was in the crowd. She looked at Me and her face looked red and hurt. Tears rolled down her cheeks like rain and as her eyes met Mine, I was hurt so by her sorrow! She was always by My side, silent and loving. She was My mother of love! She is always there next to you when you suffer.

I fell again and he (the guard) really hit Me. It (the cross) was so heavy that he and I together could barely move it. It seemed as I walked, heavier with the sins of the world heaped on it. My hands were bleeding. Blood ran from the wounds of My thorns and My head throbbed, seeming to make the wounds in My head bleed even more. Some of the Blood was dried, some of it running all over My Body. I had so many cuts and bruises -- and people watched and laughed!

I am Jesus, Son of the Living God, and they laughed and mimicked Me! Oh, such hardened hearts! How vile can men’s heart become? The devil’s grip is paralyzing and crippling.

The walk was so long up a hill and over rocks -- the cross had to be lifted over the rocks. My Body was bleeding so badly! My heart was pounding. I knew that the salvation of all men depended on My love. Therefore, I went through such agony.

I thought of My intense love for you -- that many would go to heaven because of My suffering -- and I continued to the top of the hill. At the top they laid Me on the cross and with a big hammer nailed My hands to it. It was the worst (suffering) yet. My hands were nailed with big nails and the big hammer. Oh, it was unbelievable! Then, as if that weren’t enough, with a big nail they nailed through both feet.

Then they lifted the cross and banged it into (a hole in) the ground. My shoulders ached from how I hung. My head bobbed and My neck ached and they laughed and said, "Now save Yourself." I hurt so much! I suffered this way for hours -- which seemed like forever -- and they glared at Me and laughed! My Mother watched in such agony.

For love of you, to My death I gave you My Body. My child, I shed My Blood and gave you My life that you might be with Me forever in heaven -- not for a day, a month or a year, but forever with Me in heaven.

I am the true Bread come down from heaven. He who eats My Flesh will have life forever. For the drink I give you is My Blood and food you eat is My Body. Who would lay down his life for a friend? I did, for you. I love you this much, child. Forget about those who reject you. You have My life that I gave you and I give you life eternal.

I am the One true God. I am the Light of life. He who abides in Me will have life eternal, for the drink I give is My Blood and the food I give is My Body. Drink and eat and have everlasting life.

My child, that is all you need to know. Love one another and be good that you may enter into My kingdom.
