Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:
"My beloved priest-companion, I intend
to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the
movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the
renewal of My Church and the world.
"I will use the newsletter and the
chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument
for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.
"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds
of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will
use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate
Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the
members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be
deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to
My Father in the Holy Spirit."

A message for the Earth from Jesus
January 22, 1998
I am the Good Shepherd, these are My
prayers, the prayers I give to help renew the Church and the world, all
prayer chapters are asked to include these prayers (found in the Shepherds
of Christ Prayer Manual). As My Apostles and Shepherds I ask you to
encourage all existing Chapters to try to encourage all existing prayer
groups to pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers. Encourage all Churches to
pray these prayers. It is most urgent that the people of this earth concur
with the Father's wishes to begin Prayer Chapters. This is an urgent request
from the Good Shepherd. The flock will become one when they have given their
hearts to Jesus and Mary. Encourage all priests to pray the Shepherds of
Christ prayers. Your world will be lighted with great light as the people of
this earth pray these prayers.
My promise is this to you My beloved
earth: When you give your heart to Me and spread the devotion to My Sacred
Heart, I will write your name In My Heart. I promise to give the greatest
graces when you pray these prayers for renewal of the Church and the world
and take all who pray them deeply into My Heart. The prayers I give will
bring about the reign of My Sacred Heart and the triumph of Mary's
Immaculate Heart. I am Jesus Christ, this is My message of January 22, 1998,
Please circulate this message to your world. I am the Good Shepherd, I know
Mine and Mine know Me and they follow Me. Grace My Shepherds, I will give
you the greatest graces for spreading these words to this earth and to your
Church. I love you, I am Jesus Christ, the Son of Man, it is the Plan of the
Father that Prayer Chapters are begun immediately and the Priestly
Newsletter is given to all priests. The Voice of the Good Shepherd speaks
through it.

Apostles
of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus
My dear fellow
Associate Members,
Jesus is calling special apostles to join a new division
of the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Here is a message from Jesus given to
Father Carter:
My beloved priest-companion, I am requesting that a new prayer movement be
started under the direction of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I am asking
for volunteers who are willing to pray before the Blessed Sacrament for one
hour, twice-weekly. Members of the Shepherds of Christ prayer chapters, as
well as others, are to be invited to join this movement.
These apostles are to pray for the intentions I am giving you. For part of
the hour they are to use the prayers of the Shepherds of Christ Associates
Handbook. They may spend the rest of the hour as they so choose.
I will use this new prayer movement within My Shepherds of Christ Ministries
in a powerful way to help in the renewal of My Church and the world. I will
give great graces to those who join this movement. The name, Apostles of the
Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, is to be given to this movement.
I am inviting My beloved Rita Ring to be coordinator for this activity.
I pour out the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief
Shepherd of the flock.
This is indeed a special calling for us to unite in one heart with His
Eucharistic Heart and pray for the following intentions:
1. For the spread of the devotion to the Hearts of Jesus
and Mary culminating in the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph
of the Immaculate Heart.
2. For the Pope.
3. For all bishops of the world.
4. For all priests.
5. For all sisters and brothers in the religious life.
6. For all members of the Shepherds of Christ Movement,
and for the spread of this movement to the world.
7. For all members of the Catholic Church.
8. For all members of the human family.
9. For all souls in purgatory.

Heart

The enemy seeks the weakest link in

God intends us to work as a unit
There can be a spirit of anger
There can be a spirit of punishment
retaliation brought on others
Using a religious deed or a vile
act the devil wants this
How can we do religious work

Excerpt from Response in Christ

e) Relationship with Members of the Church
...The
members of the Church suffering are those who have departed from this life
in an incomplete state of Christian development. Their development is
incomplete in the sense that grace has not fully taken possession of them,
and, as a result, they are yet closed in upon themselves to a greater or
lesser degree. They as yet cannot open themselves out in complete love to
the Triune God in the beatific vision. They must undergo a further
purification, a purification which could have been achieved upon earth with
merit. Now the purification must be achieved with no merit attached. The
pain of this purification is mixed with the certain expectation of achieving
the vision of God. We can hasten the advent of this vision for this people
by the offering of prayers and other good works. Scripture itself refers to
our action on behalf of those in purgatory in Chapter 12 of the Second Book
of Maccabees beginning with verse 38.
R.
We are to pray for our relatives,
our friends who could be in purgatory
2 Macabees 12: 41-45
All then
blessed the ways of the Lord, the upright judge who brings hidden things
to light, and gave themselves to prayer, begging that the
sin committed might be completely
forgiven. Next, the valiant Judas urged the soldiers to keep themselves
free from all sin, having seen with their own eyes the effects of the
sin of those who had fallen; after this
he took a collection from them individually, amounting to nearly two
thousand drachmas, and sent it to
Jerusalem to have a
sacrifice for
sin offered, an action altogether fine
and noble, prompted by his
belief in the resurrection. For had he
not expected the fallen to rise again, it would have been superfluous
and foolish to pray for the dead, whereas if he had in view the splendid
recompense reserved for those who make a pious end, the thought was holy
and devout. Hence, he had this expiatory
sacrifice offered for the dead, so that
they might be released from their sin.

Excerpt from Response in Christ
by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
e) Relationship with Members of the Church
There
is but one true Church of Christ. Yet this one Church has three different
states of existence. There is the pilgrim Church, the Church of this world,
composed of members who have received the grace of Christ and strive for its
development. They have not yet obtained the goal of their efforts, as have
the members of the heavenly Church, who enjoy God in eternal happiness. The
Church suffering is an intermediate state of existence necessary for those
who had not achieved the required purification as members of the pilgrim
Church. Although there are these three phases of the Churchs existence,
there is a profound union existing between all the members. All these
members possess the same basic life of grace in Christ, and this common life
establishes the most intimate bonds of love. In our preceding chapter, we
discussed the pilgrim Church. Let us now consider the Church suffering and
the heavenly Church.
The
members of the Church suffering are those who have departed from this life
in an incomplete state of Christian development. Their development is
incomplete in the sense that grace has not fully taken possession of them,
and, as a result, they are yet closed in upon themselves to a greater or
lesser degree. They as yet cannot open themselves out in complete love to
the Triune God in the beatific vision. They must undergo a further
purification, a purification which could have been achieved upon earth with
merit. Now the purification must be achieved with no merit attached. The
pain of this purification is mixed with the certain expectation of achieving
the vision of God. We can hasten the advent of this vision for this people
by the offering of prayers and other good works. Scripture itself refers to
our action on behalf of those in purgatory in Chapter 12 of the Second Book
of Maccabees beginning with verse 38.
The
members of the heavenly Church are those in whom the life of grace has taken
full possession and has reached its completion in the life of glory. Faith
now is unnecessary, as the light of glory gives the human intellect a new
strength and capacity for seeing God face-to-face. While the Christian was a
wayfarer, he received the imprint of the indwelling Trinity as he shared in
Gods own life. Now in heaven that grace-life and possession of God
reaches its completionthe absolute completion is not achieved, however,
until the resurrection of the body. The divine persons give Themselves to
the beatified in a profound union far surpassing that of the indwelling of
the Trinity experienced here below.
This
life of heaven is still the Christ-life, for just as we possess a share in
Trinitarian life here below as mediated by Christ, and exercise this
grace-life as structured by Him, so also in heaven is the mediation of
Christ present. In the words of Rahner, "One always sees the Father
through Jesus. Just as immediately as this, for the directness of the vision
of God is not a denial of the mediatorship of Christ as man."14
And not only does the humanity of Christ unite the blessed to
God, but also, in some way, to the whole of creation. This is merely a
completion of what is begun here below, namely, the union with Christ in His
humanity establishing the Christian in a special relationship with God, with
other men, and with the whole of creation. We have a glimpse, therefore, of
the fullness of life which members of the heavenly Church possess.
The
heavenly Church, as St. Thomas says, is the true Church.15
The Church of this earth and the Church of purgatory are,
each in its own way, reaching out in loving hope for the heavenly Jerusalem.
Vatican II puts it very simply: "The Church, to which we are called in
Christ Jesus, and in which we acquire sanctity through the grace of God,
will attain her full perfection only in the glory of heaven."16
The
members of the heavenly Church can help us in living our life of grace until
we too share its fullness with them. Their power of intercession on our
behalf is but another ramification of the communal aspect of Christianity.
We are meant to help others grow in Christ. We, in turn, are intended by God
to receive aid from othersyes, from members of the heavenly Church, as
well as from those with whom we dwell here below.
Not
only can we be aided by the saints intercession, but the example of the
canonized saints can also be of great value to us. They have concretely
proved that full holiness is possible. Such an inspiration is of real worth
when we are tempted to think that Christian sanctity in its higher degrees
is impossible of attainment. Moreover, the canonized saints, in their
diversity, teach us that there are many authentic versions of Christian
holiness. They can be innovators in showing us that there are numerous
possibilities in assimilating the mystery of Christ, although the basic
assimilation remains the same for all Christians of all times. In the
opinion of Rahner this is one of the chief roles the canonized saints exert
in the life of the Church.17

Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite
with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.
I want to be one in Him in this act of
love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him.
Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of
greatest love to Him.
Let me unite with Him more, that I may
more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and
the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and
pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to
You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.
Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me.
Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like
Jesus.
Father, I offer this my sacrifice,
myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more
deeply in this act of my greatest love.
Give me the grace to grow in my
knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest
participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply
in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.

Hebrews 9: 11-15
But now Christ has come, as the
high priest of all the blessings which were to come. He has passed
through the greater, the more perfect tent, not made by human hands,
that is, not of this created order; and he has entered the sanctuary
once and for all, taking with him not the blood of goats and bull
calves, but his own blood, having won an eternal redemption. The
blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkled on
those who have incurred defilement, may restore their bodily purity.
How much more will the blood of Christ, who offered himself,
blameless as he was, to God through the eternal Spirit, purify our
conscience from dead actions so that we can worship the living God.
This makes him the
mediator of a new covenant, so that, now that a death has occurred
to redeem the sins committed under an earlier covenant, those who
have been called to an eternal inheritance may receive the promise.

We go to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary

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
Christs sake. For it is when I am weak that I am strong.
R.
We need to forgive those in
our hearts from resentment
we have to go to loving

Not love - hate relationships
We don't have to like what
they do, but we pray
God to bless them who hurt
us and pray for grace for them
Pray for those who hurt us
They need that love
They need God's grace
Do we let others tell us they
are sorry and forgive
them?
We pray deeply in Jesus and
we pray in deep union
with Him for our
brothers who hurt us
Prayer from
St. Ignatius
Lord,
teach me to be generous.
Teach me to serve you as you deserve;
To give and not to count the cost;
To fight and not to heed
the wounds;
To toil and not to seek for rest;
To labor and not to ask
for any reward,
Save that of knowing
that I am doing your will.

Jeremiah 1: 4-7
The word of Yahweh came to
me, saying:
Before I formed you in the
womb
I knew you;
before you came to birth
I consecrated you;
I appointed you as prophet to the nations.
I then said, Ah, ah, ah,
Lord Yahweh;
you see, I do not know how to speak: I am only a child!
But Yahweh replied,
Do not say, "I am only a child,"
for you must go to all to whom I send you
and say whatever I command you.
Excerpt from Response to God's Love
by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
...
In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery.
Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his
inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this
inner life of God.
The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a
perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the
immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father.
Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy
Spirit in a perfect act of loving.
At the destined moment in human history, God's
self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner
self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression.
Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ,
God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation
and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell
within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their
own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish
through Christ.

...And the light shown in the darkness and the
darkness grasped it not, but to as many as responded, they became the
children of the light and from them His life flowed into the hearts that
were cold and dark and slowly, very slowly, the light
began to steal across the darkened sky and the moon was covered with
blood. The blood was the blood of the Lamb. The blood represented
the blood He shed to give us life. But the blind just saw ordinary
blood and were scared to death. They responded with the greatest
fright and lacked peace, but those rooted in God, those whose hearts
were consecrated to Mary and Jesus, knew the sign was from Godthat
the time of reckoning was at hand. Many were punished and suffered a
great chastisement. Many were left to death, but the children of
light prayed the rosary and trusted in God...

Today's Readings
Jeremiah 7: 23-28
My one command to them was
this: Listen to my voice, then I will be your God and you shall be my
people. In everything, follow the way that I mark out for you, and you
shall prosper. But they did not listen, they did not pay attention; they
followed their own devices, their own stubborn and wicked inclinations,
and got worse rather than better. From the day your ancestors left Egypt
until today, I have sent you all my servants the prophets, persistently
sending them day after day. But they have not listened to me, have not
paid attention; they have deliberately resisted, behaving worse than
their ancestors. So you will tell them all this, but they will not
listen to you; you will call them, but they will not answer you." Then
you are to say to them, "This is the nation that will neither listen to
the voice of Yahweh its God nor take correction. Sincerity is no more,
it has vanished from their mouths."
Psalm 95: 1-2, 6-9
Come, let us cry out with joy to Yahweh,
acclaim the rock of our salvation.
Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving,
acclaim him with music.
Come, let us bow low and do reverence;
kneel before Yahweh who made us!
For he is our God,
and we the people of his sheepfold,
the flock of his hand.
If only you would listen to him today!
Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah,
as at the time of Massah in the desert,
when your ancestors challenged me,
put me to the test, and saw what I could do!
Luke 11: 14-23
He was driving out a devil
and it was dumb; and it happened that when the devil had gone out the
dumb man spoke, and the people were amazed. But some of them said, 'It
is through Beelzebul, the prince of devils, that he drives devils out.'
Others asked him, as a test, for a sign from heaven; but, knowing what
they were thinking, he said to them, 'Any kingdom which is divided
against itself is heading for ruin, and house collapses against house.
So, too, with Satan: if he is divided against himself, how can his
kingdom last? since you claim that it is through Beelzebul that I
drive devils out. Now if it is through Beelzebul that I drive devils
out, through whom do your own sons drive them out? They shall be judges,
then. But if it is through the finger of God that I drive devils out,
then the kingdom of God has indeed caught you unawares. So long as a
strong man fully armed guards his own home, his goods are undisturbed;
but when someone stronger than himself attacks and defeats him, the
stronger man takes away all the weapons he relied on and shares out his
spoil.
'Anyone who is not with me is
against me; and anyone who does not gather in with me throws away.
God calls us to that
giving of ourselves to Him
Giving us to God
The marriage of our souls
Have we given our whole heart
to the Lord in intimate love
Or do we have other loves
Nothing is more practical than
finding God, that is, than falling in a love in a quite
absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your
imagination will affect everything. It will decide what will get
you out of bed in the mornings, what you will do with your
evenings, how you spend your weekends, what you read, who you
know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and
gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide
everything.

Sin is rebelling against God who loves
us so much
The Harmony that God wants is distorted

Sorrowful Mysteries
Song: I Am Your
Sacred Heart
Song: Little
Child
The
Agony in the Garden
1. Most of the messages that I receive from
Jesus, I just hear a few words and then the message comes as
I speak. I do not know what He will say through me. A lot
is reflection, some from the Holy Spirit. Most of the
content of the rosary is this way. On some occasions, He has
asked me to read certain excerpts from a book. Today He has
asked me to have with me God’s Blue Book II in which
a lot will come from that when I read something and also
from the Apostles Manual. However, most that I
receive is received as I sit here from Jesus, and I speak as
He speaks through me. I do not know what He will say. I just
am used as the instrument to deliver the message to you.
2.
This is from the Apostles Manual.
This is a letter that I wrote to Jesus. “My whole life is to
be like You, but I am so imperfect. Dying to myself is such
a struggle because I want to get down from the cross and
hold on to my old ways.
I
see You on the cross, Jesus, with Your hands opened wide and
the way You hung. You endured it until the end. Three
agonizing hours. You did not get down and You gave Your all.
In humbleness, I will admit my faults and grow to be more
like You. Oh, God, I can't get down from the cross and put
the old imperfections back on.
When You light the way and show me how evil I am, I have to
go all the way to the death of the imperfections as much as
possible. I cannot get off the cross and keep any of them. I
want to be like You, but I fall so short of true holiness. I
only know I really, really love You and I want to be like
You. When You were beaten raw, You loved those who hated
You. Oh, our way is so hard. I don't want to open myself up
to those who have hurt me, but I know I should.
Jesus: I tell you, you must die to your
selfish ways and love. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. Admit your failings
so you can die to them.” (Apostles Manual,
February 28, 1997, A Love Letter to Jesus)
3. And so what do I see all through the
sorrowful mysteries, but the surrender of our Almighty
God. I see Him as He kneels in the garden. He is alone
there, for the apostles slept. And He surrendered,
surrendered always to the will of the Father. How many times
in our life do we know that there is something very
difficult that we must do, but it is very hard for us. And
so we struggle, we struggle trying to do what God is telling
us to do and what we want to do. It is in doing His will
that we will have peace and joy. Many times it is very
difficult to do those things that He asks of us. But in
order to have peace and oneness with Him, we must comply to
the will of the Father and do as He asks.
4. Jesus: I opened Myself, I
opened Myself for you, My beloved ones. I gave, I gave
Myself to My death on the cross.
Look at Jesus today. In the Eucharist He
gives Himself to us. It is as if we would give ourselves to
someone, to open ourselves wide, to share ourselves and they
would walk away and treat us with much indifference. The
Almighty God is all perfect love and He gives Himself to us
freely in the Eucharist. He gives Himself to us in the
greatest love. He is longing and He is waiting for us to
come to Him in Holy Communion to unite in this most intimate
way with our Divine Savior. And so many walk away
immediately after they have received Communion, the gift of
love given by the all perfect God. He gives Himself and
people walk away and they do not treasure this great gift
that He gives to us. Let us look deep into our hearts and
let us think of the gifts God has given to us. Let us think
of the gift that God is here present at this very moment, in
this most holy place, the Almighty God, the same Jesus that
knelt in the garden, that sweat blood, that carried His
cross, that hung on His cross. He is here, the same Jesus
that rose from the dead, that ascended into heaven, He is
here and He remains with us. Hear Him. He calls out to me
and to you, “So few souls come to Me with a heart that is
filled with such love and I am longing and I am waiting for
them to come and to share themselves with Me.”
5. Feel the anguish of our beloved Savior in
the garden as He kneels. And He knows of all of the souls
that He loved so, the souls that He would give Himself to in
the Holy Eucharist and they would leave and would not even
recognize the great gift that He gave to them. How His Heart
hurt with immense pain in the Passion, suffering within His
Heart for wanting their love, wanting them to share this
most intimate time with Him. He gives Himself so intimately
to them in the Holy Eucharist. And they walk away as if the
gift is nothing, and they talk of senseless things.
6.
I remember this so well. It was
February the 28th, 1994 .
Note: It was noisy right after Communion. He was
upset.
R. Jesus, truly is in our midst! It is the fire of
His love in our breasts that will warm the cold heart.
Jesus: How can you, in your indifference, walk from
Me when I am truly present in your body? How can you, when
you see Me hanging on the cross out of love for you, walk
away when I, God, love you so much as to come and be inside
of your body?
You are ignorant because you are busy for all the wrong
things. If you, My little ones, were busy about our love
affair, I would teach you all you need to know, but you busy
yourself with such nonsense.” Jesus lamented and lamented
the loss of the souls that were leaving the chapel. He cried
out. It sounded as if in greatest pain and anguish for the
souls that were leaving, when He wanted so much intimacy
with them. (God's Blue Book II, February
28, 1994 After Communion, God Is There In Holy Communion)
7. This is what this is about. Our Lady
promised at
Fatima that there would be this great
era in which the Sacred Heart of Jesus would reign and her
Immaculate Heart would triumph. In this great era, it will
be an era in which man will know such intimacy with God far
beyond any that we know at this time. He is revealing these
secrets to us, the secrets of His Heart so that we will be
more intimate with Him. And He is giving to us a great grace
to be ever closer to Him. He promised Father Carter in a
message that He gave to him, when he began the Shepherds of
Christ movement as Jesus requested, that He would give to
the members of the Shepherds of Christ movement abundant
graces to be ever closer to His Heart and to the heart of
His Mother. Jesus’ Heart, let us focus on this burning heart
of love. Let us see it clearly before our eyes. This is the
Almighty God. He is here in this room with us at this very
moment and He wants our love.
8. So much our beloved Savior suffered. He
sweat blood. It is love He wants from us. For He has said
many times before in these rosaries, His greatest anguish
was not the wounds to His body during the Passion but it was
the wounds to His most Sacred Heart. Think of yourselves.
Think of how it is if you break a leg. You are
inconvenienced, you suffer from the pain. But think of how
it is when you love someone and you are hurt by this love,
how your heart is in such pain. Jesus has said in rosary
after rosary, “My greatest agony was not the wounds to My
body, but it was the suffering to My most Sacred Heart, the
heart that loves and wants to be loved.’
9. And so why are the football games so
crowded? Why do people spend so much money to go to hear
singers but our Almighty waits many times in the tabernacles
of this world waiting for the precious souls to come? It is
in this chapel that we should tell Him how fervently we love
Him, the King of all kings on His throne in the tabernacle,
that we should open up our heart at this moment and thank
the Almighty God for the gift of Himself given to us.
10. We are as blind men and we do not see.
Jesus speaks to us in the scriptures. Some of the language
is veiled. We must go to the heart of our Mother and pray to
the Holy Spirit that we will see more and more, that we will
know our beloved God more and more. For to know Him is to
love Him. We must pray for the light to shine in our hearts,
the light of knowing God and loving Him with the most
fervent love.
Song between decades: “I come to you with greatest love…”
The
Scourging at the Pillar
1. This is an excerpt from the Mass Book. In
this experience, I was given the great intensity in the
presence of God and I wrote on December 17th,
1995 ,
“I touched eternity, and in that embrace, I
knew all the waiting was worth the glory. You enveloped my
being, and I was truly merged in the Divine Presence. I was
merged in Your being. I existed IN You, with You, in the
highest union with You, although I knew I was still distinct
from You.
I
was fused and absorbed in You, feeling complete and
satisfied.
This is heaven on earth: to be merged as one with Divinity,
although remaining distinct from God, to take our feeble
hearts, our lowly status and to unite ourselves with the
Divine, Almighty, powerful God and in this union to be
meshed with Him, that His power dominates and our humanity
reaches its heights of fulfillment in this union, in this
oneness with Him.” (Mass Book,
December 17, 1995 , The
Earth Stopped and Touched Heaven)
2.
“The place Jesus took me was into the deepest recesses of
His Heart. I was enveloped in His burning love. It was a red
room with heat and an intense glow. I was swept away in this
embrace, and I only existed in Him. The power of the
Almighty God enveloped me, and I only existed in Him. There
was no fear, for I was existent in this Almighty Being. My
heart was wrapped in the eternal embrace of this Supreme
Being. The security, the power I know was His deep presence
in which I existed.” (Mass Book, December 18,
1995, In the Deepest Recesses of His Heart)
3. And so He stood at the pillar. They had
bound Him and they came to Him with their whips. They came
forth to our beloved Jesus, our lover, and they whipped Him
and they tore His flesh. And did He give? Yes, He gave. He
gave His flesh, He gave His blood, He gave His all. He came
to this earth, the Almighty God in greatest love for man,
and He gave Himself. He gave Himself as a sacrifice to His
death on the cross and He gives to us this day Himself. And
how do we treat this great gift that the Almighty God gives
to us? What about the gifts that God is giving, the gift
that He gives, His precious Son? He gives Himself to us in
the Holy Eucharist. And how do we treat Him when we receive
Him? Do we give Him our love? Do we tell Him how much we
love Him? Do we spend the time after communion, the time
that is so precious when He imprints on us knowledge of
Himself, the most intimate knowledge of the Almighty God,
the great gift given to us. Do we relish this time with Him
after Communion and realize that it’s in that time the
Almighty God will shower us with His divine life. And He
will give us knowledge of Himself, special knowledge in this
great act of intimacy and union with the Almighty God. This
will be the era of great intimacy. When men will not run
from church, when they will be so united in such intimacy to
the Almighty God, where their hearts will burn for they will
love God beyond everything else and they will love each
other as the Father intends us to love. Think of this. All
of us being united, loving God with such intense love and
being one with each other where we care for each other,
where we are not trying to get ahead of people we are just
genuinely loving each other, as brothers, as the Father
intended us to do. This will be this great era when men will
know that they are truly brothers in Christ, where they will
love God with the most fervent love and when they will love
each other.
4. And how can we help? We can help by giving
ourselves to the hearts of Jesus and Mary. We can pray this
prayer every day for union with Jesus. We can go to Him in
the holy sacrifice of the Mass and give ourselves, give
ourselves as completely as we can, as a sacrifice, united
with Jesus in this sacrifice to the Father.
5. And so why are we not one? Why is there
such separation between us? We must die to our
imperfections. We must go to Him in the holy sacrifice of
the mass and surrender, give ourselves. And at that point of
consecration, as we unite to His sacrifice to the Father,
that we will ask to die to our imperfections, that we will
pray to be more and more like Him. The more we are like Him,
the more we will be one with each other. For it is because
of our imperfections that we are separate from one
another. We must die to our imperfections to be more like
Him.
6. And so I say, “But Jesus, I do not want to
give for I hurt. It hurts so many times when I give, and I
give, and I give and I am rejected and unaccepted. But I see
Jesus at the pillar with His hands tied and I see them whip
Him and I see as His flesh is torn that He gave His flesh
indeed for love of me. This is love. It is the gift of self
given.
7.
The word that I have heard all morning is “surrender,
surrender, surrender.” “Surrender to Me.” So I opened up
the Blue Book and Jesus spoke to me in the Blue Book. “Oh,
sweet surrender to the will of God, to know that He, too,
uses this to our greater love of Him! All that we experience
is to strengthen our relationship with Him! It is in these
periods of longing that we realize how much we truly love
Him.” (God's Blue Book II, February 4, 1994, After
Mass The Ache in Your Heart Is for Union with Jesus)
8.
And I open to another place in the Blue Book and He said,
“The will of The Father I make clear to you. You want that
security the world says you should have. The world is not
secure. It is built on a sinking ship. It may look secure,
but in one instant your ship could sink and if you are
counting on yourself, what will you do?” (God's Blue
Book II, January 18, 1994, 4:40 a.m. I Want Both Feet
Off the Ground)
9. We hold on, we hold on to so many things
that we do not even realize that we are attached to. Look at
Jesus. They tied Him to the pillar, the Almighty God. At any
moment, He could have released Himself. But for greatest
love of us He allowed Himself to be tied to a pillar, to be
beaten, to be bloodied. He surrendered Himself for love of
us.
10. There are so many messages that Jesus
gave in the second Blue Book on surrender. Let us look at
our Almighty God, the Almighty God, all powerful, knowing
all things, Almighty comes into this world a helpless baby
in the womb of a woman. He is tied to the pillar, the
Almighty God. He is bound in a little baby body, He is bound
to the pillar. He is hung on the cross and nailed to the
cross. He is bound to the cross but we do not want to
surrender. We do not want to give for we do hold on to
things. We want that little bit of security that the world
tells us that we must have. And He says to us, “I am the
Almighty God. I am all powerful. I gave Myself for love of
you. I allowed Myself to be tied to the pillar and to be
nailed to the cross. I gave Myself to you. I died for you. I
gave Myself for love of you and you are afraid, you are
afraid to let go and let me run your life. I want union with
you. I am asking you this day to pray the Prayer for Union
With Jesus to give yourself as a sacrifice to unite to My
sacrifice and to offer yourselves to the Father.”
Song between decades: “I come to you with
greatest love…”
The Crowning With Thorns
1. We even hold on to our
imperfections. We do not give ourselves as we should to
Jesus and let Jesus work in our hearts. We think that we
are in control of everything, that we are able to rid
ourselves of these imperfections. We must give ourselves
to Jesus and willingly want to give up the
imperfections. We must pray for His grace to help
us.
2. I opened up the
Blue Book again and Jesus spoke to me. And He says, “Do
not dwell on how you should be perfect, that you are not
and are disappointing to Me. That is Satan! You are not
perfect. Admit it with humility. You are a creature that
thinks of yourself. Selflessness is a constant struggle.
Pray for strength and help to become selfless. This is
how it is achieved. You do not do it. You pray and
practice discipline in yourself. You are not perfect and
I love you always. I love you in your faults, just as I
love you when you are good. I love you unconditionally.
It is pride to think you are perfect. You are not
perfect. You are constantly struggling with the ego part
of you. Pray to be absorbed in My heart. Pray for union
with Me. Pray to die to yourself and remain only in My
love.” (God's Blue Book II, February 20,
1994 6:30 a.m., Focus Only on the Love of Jesus)
3. And so I struggled and I struggled and
I went to Him and I cried. And I said to Jesus, “Jesus,
will You help me?” And He told me, He told me in a
message on December 22nd that He would bring the
shepherds to their knees. And that He has. Since
December the 22nd, 1996 , He has
brought me to my knees and He has brought me to the Blue
Books in a way that I have never used them before. For
the answers are truly found from Jesus in these Blue
Books. And He speaks to us, His words of love. And in
His words of love He gives to us teachings in order to
live in holiness, in order to live in loving God more
and loving one another.
4. I am sorry so many times when I see
myself fall and I keep going to Him more and more. But I
am realizing more and more that it is in the holy
sacrifice of the Mass, it is in uniting in that
sacrifice with Jesus to the Father, that at that moment
when I give myself to Him, that I will die to many
imperfections if I surrender and let go. For it is in
that moment, I feel His presence so strong. And then He
gives Himself to me in the Holy Eucharist and He wraps
me in His Divine love and it makes me cry. For to have
the presence of the Almighty God is greater than all
treasures to be found on this earth. And I hear Him
lament about the souls that run from the church after
Communion. And I understand more fully what it is to
give yourself and to be hurt, what it is for Jesus to
give Himself completely, the Almighty God to us and to
be treated with such indifference and such lack of love
from the cold hearts that exist in this world. The
hearts are, oh, so cold in this world today. But the
Heart of Jesus is warm and on fire for love of men. And
He is giving us the grace and He is giving us these
messages that our hearts too will be turned to hearts of
love and on fire for Him. For He is alive and He is
truly present in this room with us and He is longing for
our love. Will we turn our hearts over to Him, will we
surrender and give ourselves, or will we remain as the
cold hearts in this world? For He longs for a heart
that is filled with love to come to Him and to share
their love with Him. He is alive and He wants our love.
5. I would like to read to you from March
of 1994. This was exactly three years ago today and I
remember this as if it happened only minutes ago. For I
went to church and my heart was in such anguish and
suffering as He allowed me to suffer so many times for
the souls that do not love Him. And I went there and I
heard Jesus call out. He says,
“Jesus: I died for you,
sweet one. I allow you to suffer. This is suffering. You
are given this to know how I suffered. You I only give
such little things. I suffered, sweet one. I suffered,
bloodied, bruised and beaten. Blood rolled down My
cheeks. My head was pierced with sharp thorns. They spat
on Me. They whipped Me. They beat Me on My head, My
precious head. They hit Me on My thorns and the pain was
so intense--the piercing thorns! I was slapped hard by
these senseless ones. Oh, such evil in the hearts of
those who beat Me, the Son of God!
My whole Body ached from head to toe. I
suffered so, My child. You will never know how I
suffered for love of you. I am God and I loved all My
precious ones to My death--and they ignore Me!
Oh, how I suffer from this wounded heart.
They will never know what love I have to give them. They
will never know how I, God, love them. They are so busy
with their worldly lives!
You must tell them how I wait for them. I
wait. I want them to come and I will give them such
love! Tell them, Rita, tell them! Your discontent is
from what emotions I give you and you keep them inside.
I want all to know Me and My love. I am crying out to
you, little one. Tell them, tell them. Do not waste any
time. I am crying out for you to spread this message. I
want you to tell all of My love and how I am waiting.
Emotion! Emotion! I am crying out to you in your heart!
I long for their love. I died for them.
How do I make them know if you, to whom I speak, hold
back? I want you to get the messages out, child.
I loved all My beloved ones to My death.
I love you this way this day. I am Jesus. I am begging
you to not hold back this emotion.
Oh, child, My beloved ones are blind and
are going down the road that leads to nowhere. You must
preach My message. You must distribute My letters. You
must tell all how I wait here!” (God's Blue Book
II, March 13, 1994, My Heart Aches for You)
6. And I went from the church and I was
in such suffering as He allowed me to suffer. Every
Sunday I would go to the church from 5-6 (p.m.). And He
said He allowed me to suffer on Saturday and Sundays
especially, because of the neglect He received from so
many that went to church on Sunday and did not even have
a thought for Him when He gave Himself to them.
7. Jesus: And so I cry out
to you this day, My beloved ones. I am asking you to
help to spread the messages in God’s Blue Book Two. For
in this book I am telling My beloved souls of My burning
love for them. It is in these letters that they will
know that I am alive and that I am waiting and that I am
longing, that I am truly present in the tabernacle and I
give Myself to them in the Holy Eucharist. And I long
for those moments after communion, for those moments
when you come and you spend this time with Me and you
tell Me how much you love Me. I am Jesus. I am alive and
I am waiting for you. Will you spread this message to
the far ends of the earth? There will be a time when men
will love Me with the greatest love. Many souls will be
lost. I am calling you, the apostles, to carry this
message to the ends of the earth and to tell men of the
fire of My love, the fire that will warm their
hearts. So many will know the fire of hell, the fire of
everlasting damnation. What you do with your life this
day, how you spend your life helping to spread this
message to the world will make the difference to so many
souls for I am magnifying all of your efforts. And the
souls will know My love because you went into the world
and told the world how I loved them.
8. And the King will reign on His
throne. All will come and they will worship and adore
Him. They will kiss the ground and bend low. They will
prostrate themselves and they will know God in a way
that they have never known God before. And they will
have the most intimate love affair with the Almighty God
sharing in His deep burning love for them.
9. Hail Mary…
10. Hail Mary…
Song between decades: “I come to you with
greatest love…”
The Carrying of the Cross
1. This is a message from
August the 23rd, 1993. Jesus spoke, “
Jesus: 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. 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.” (Blue Rosary Book, August
23, 1993, On His Passion)
2. And so He carried the cross on His
back laden with our sins. He suffered for us. Do you
know what it is to suffer for another? Do you know what
it is? Do you know how it was for Jesus to carry the
weight of the sins of the world on His back?
3. Think of how we feel when somebody
makes us mad, if they can make us mad. But we feel as if
someone hurt us or someone did something to us. Think of
how we feel inside. Jesus willingly took on the cross,
He took on the weight of the sins of the world. He
carried the sufferings on His back.
4. And how does He tell us that we are to
love one another? He tells us that we are to love one
another as He loved us. And how did He love us? He gave
His life for us. Do we love our brothers that we would
give our life for them?
5. Jesus: It is in the
cross, it is in the crosses that I give to you that you
learn the lessons that I want to teach to you. But so
many abandon the cross and they do not learn a lesson.
And so I must try to teach them again. You must bear
with your crosses and you must identify with My
cross. You must realize that it is in carrying your
crosses that you learn the greatest lessons in dealing
with the people that irritate you, the people that make
you suffer, that you learn how to love. I am teaching
you this day in your life, in all of the circumstance of
your life, you are being taught My lessons of love. I am
molding you and shaping you into My soldiers of love. Do
not give up the cross. You must love, you must not be
angry with your brother. You must love them when they
hurt you and when they persecute you. I am teaching you
the way to love.
6. But we kick and we holler and we
complain and we give our cross many times to others,
when we could carry the cross ourselves and we could
gain much grace. But it is so hard. And He says, “It is
hard. Look into My eyes as I carried the cross. See the
blood as it rolled down My face, as it rolled into My
eyes. See the cross as I carried the cross and fell to
the ground and My chin hit the earth. See the cross as
they poked at Me and I scarcely could move, but I got up
and I continued to the hill where they crucified Me.”
How are you this day? Do you give up your
cross or do you carry the cross? For it is in the cross
that there is the glory. It is in the death that there
is the life. It is in the darkness that there is the
light and although we can not see for we feel our eyes
are crusted over and we are blinded. Slowly, very slowly
the light steals across the sky and we see the
brightness of the new day. Slowly, very slowly as we
struggle through the deepest cave, there is the opening
at the end where the light shows through. He allows us
many times to suffer and then we go to Him in front of
the tabernacle and after communion and in one second He
outpours His most intimate love and it was as if all the
suffering was worth those moments of intimacy when He
gave us His special divine touch. For He is alive, He is
alive and He is giving to us great grace to draw us ever
closer to His heart on fire for love of us. Oh, Jesus,
how I love Thee. But it is so hard so many times. I love
Thee with all my heart and I want to be so close to
you. But I see myself struggle and I hear you say to
me, “No one is perfect. I am giving to you the grace to
handle all the difficulties in your life. You will
struggle. I love you, I love you however you come to
Me.” And I know this, for He has revealed this to me. I
know that the more I go to the holy sacrifice of the
Mass, the more that I truly beg Him to help me to die to
my imperfections, that He will help me, that He will
help me. I depend on Him.
7. God knows that we are not perfect. And
at the beginning of every Mass we tell Him how sorry we
are for our sins. I remember one time going to Mass and
feeling so unworthy. And I went and then they said to be
sorry for our sins and to say, “Lord, have mercy,
Christ, have mercy, Lord, have mercy.” And I thought,
“Jesus wants me to offer myself as a sacrifice. But in
this mass, I can tell Him how I am a sinner and I am
sorry for my sins.” I want to be a holy sacrifice, I
want to unite with Him, I want to be like Him. But it is
a struggle, it is truly a struggle. But I know after the
dark, dark, black, black night that there is the morning
light. After the death, there is the resurrection. And
He outpours His life to us and we know Our Divine Lord
lives.
8. Jesus: My beloved ones,
Satan is a prowling lion that is prowling this earth
wanting to devour you. He wants your soul and he wants
the souls of all My beloved ones. I am aiding you in
helping to spread My love, in helping to spread the
Shepherds of Christ movement. You must pray for the
priests. Pray fervently for the priests. Pray as
Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. You must
pray your prayers as often as you can. Pray as often as
you can before the tabernacle. It is through your
prayers that many things will be accomplished.
I know, Jesus, what you are asking of us
is to spread this movement to the far corners of the
earth. And I know that the bombs are flying and the
bombs will fly. And I know that Satan works on the
weakest link to help stir up much confusion and
division. He works on the people that do not have a
fervent prayer life. Satan works in order to try to stop
us. For he does not want the movement to spread and he
does not want souls to love God and he wants souls for
hell. So I know this from what Jesus has told us, that
we must pray fervently, seriously at least an hour a
day, alone with Jesus in greatest intimacy for as long
as we assume our role as apostles. As long as we go out,
Satan will work on us to try to stop us and it is the
ones that are not spending the intimate time with Jesus
that he will use. This time is so precious with our
beloved Jesus, preferably before the tabernacle, if not
at home, to spend some quiet time with Jesus every day.
For it is in that time that He helps us to sort out the
information that we have taken in and He gives us the
knowledge that we need to know how to handle the
problems in our life.
9. It is in this time alone with Him, if
we write to Him, if we read His letters in the Blue
Book, if we spend time just being with Him that we will
learn about intimacy with Jesus, that our life with Him
will change more and more into a greater intimacy after
communion and during the mass. For we will know Him as a
Person that truly loves us.
10. Hail Mary…
Song between decades: “Oh burning heart,
Oh love divine…”
Jesus:
I love you, I love you, I love you.
Jesus Dies on the Cross
1. This is from the Mass Book, December
the 19th, 1996, There is a Man on the
Cross. “God wants union with us. He wants fire. Many try
to love God with a cold heart. They tell Him words that
they think they should say that are loving.
When one loves, they do not need to be
prompted to say words. From the depth of their being
they cry out their words of love. It is a cry from
within, from the fire within their chest, behind the
words. The words are burning in their chest and must be
released because of the fire behind them.
We are as blind men. We do not see the
great gifts that God gives to us. It is as if we stand
by the shore of the sea and throw little words at Jesus.
We must not be afraid to jump into the water and be
completely immersed in His love. He was consumed with
such love for us. He gave Himself to His death on the
cross.” (Mass Book, December 19, 1996, There is a
Man on the Cross)
2. “There is a man on a cross and he
tells us so many things. He does not have to speak. When
we study Him on the cross, He speaks to us with His
pierced hands. ” (Mass Book, December 19, 1996, There
is a Man on the Cross)
3. “His head covered with blood, His body
withered and beaten. He speaks to us of His undying
love. Oh, beloved Savior, I am blind. I am selfish. I do
not see the great reservoir of love that you give to Me.
I see the man dying on the cross. How do I see Him?”
(Mass Book, December 19, 1996, There is a Man on the
Cross)
4. “Do I see the body of a man, a live
man? Do I see His labored breath? Do I see His chest
move as His Heart beats within? Do I see the real skin
of a man? Do I see the real blood He shed? Do I see the
light that silhouettes His withered body? Do I see the
Light of the World? Do I see the tender skin of an
infant laid on bare wood in the manager and then the
torn, lacerated, bloodied skin of this man?
This is love! There is a man on the
cross. There is a child born to us today. He is the
Light of the World. His light is shining in the
darkness, but people do not see. They see the wood, but
they view it for the beauty it will create in their
newly decorated living rooms.
The cross is not a thing of the past, the
cross is with us today. We carry it on our backs as He
showed us we would, but we try to take it off and throw
it away.
It is in the cross there is the
resurrection. It is by meditating on the crucifix, we
see His undying love. We must open up our eyes and see.
Pray for vision to see clearly the man Who gave Himself
for love of us, Our Divine Lord.” (Mass Book,
December 19, 1996, There is a Man on the Cross)
5. It is in the death that there is the
resurrection. It is after the dark night that we see the
light of day. It is in going to the holy sacrifice of
the mass and uniting in this sacrifice with Jesus to the
Father that we are transformed more and more and that we
unite, in the deepest intimacy with Him, in the Holy
Eucharist. We are to be soldiers of love, soldiers that
are going across this earth with hearts that are warm
and are filled with love. There are many cold hearts in
the world. If we go to the world and we are confronted
by these cold hearts and we clam up and we close up, we
will not spread His light and His fire into the
darkness. We must realize that love is giving, that we
must give when it hurts, that we must give, and give,
and give. There is a man that is hanging on the cross
and He does not speak any words. But if we study His
body, if we see His arms outstretched and nailed with
the nails, we will see that He gave His all to His
death, He gave the last drop of His blood and the last
beat of His heart.
6. Jesus: Can I count on
you, My beloved ones? Will you carry the message of My
love into this world? Will you carry the message of My
burning heart to the cold hearts? For so many people
have turned almost into robots, the way that they talk
to one another. I want love and oneness, I want you to
be one.
7. It is in the Shepherds of Christ
movement as we give our hearts to Jesus and Mary that we
unite in this oneness in Their Hearts. It is in the Holy
Eucharist that He gives Himself to us, that we become
one in Him, and that we become so united with one
another.
8. This is from Ezekiel (34: 11-16) “For
the Lord Yahweh says this: Look, I myself shall take
care of my flock and look after it. As a shepherd looks
after his flock when he is with his scattered sheep, so
shall I look after my sheep. I shall rescue them from
wherever they have been scattered on the day of clouds
and darkness. I shall bring them back from the peoples
where they are: I shall gather them back from the
countries and bring them back to their own land. I shall
pasture them on the mountains of
Israel, in the ravines and in all the
inhabited parts of the country. I shall feed them in
good pasturage; the highest mountains of
Israel will
be their grazing ground. There they will rest in good
grazing grounds; they will browse in rich pastures on
the mountains of
Israel . I
myself shall pasture my sheep, I myself shall give them
rest -- declares the Lord Yahweh. I shall look for the
lost one, bring back the stray, bandage the injured and
make the sick strong. I shall watch over the fat and the
healthy. I shall be a true shepherd to them.”
9. We are the Shepherds of Christ
Associates. We are the apostles that He is calling this
day to carry out this mission, to carry the light into
the darkness, to pray for the priests, to pray for the
renewal of the church and the world. It is through our
prayers, our prayers and our prayer chapters, it is
through our prayers in front of the tabernacle, in doing
what He has asked us to do as Apostles of the
Eucharistic Heart, that this will be accomplished. For
Satan is so strong. Jesus gave Himself to His death on
the cross. This is Jesus’ instrument to help in the
renewal of the church and the world. He is asking us to
give ourselves and to help spread this movement to the
far corners of the earth. And He will give to us great
grace that we will be ever closer to the Hearts of Jesus
and Mary and we will know this intense love and we will
know Him, in the deepest love, within our hearts. And we
will be joined in one mind and one heart, as the Father
intended. For this is how God wants us to be. The Father
look to the earth, He wants to see us as one happy
family. Jesus gave Himself to His death on the cross for
love of us. He has told us that we must love God and
love one another. Jesus does not want cold hearts, words
spoken from the surface. He wants us to love Him with
our whole heart, our whole soul, and our whole being, to
love one another with the deepest love, and to give
ourselves. For love is giving. For we see that He is
love and He gave His all to His death on the cross.
10. Our strength is in Him. We must go to
Him. He is the power, He is the might we must give
ourselves. We must surrender ourselves. It is in going
to the Holy Eucharist, particularly that He outpours His
grace to us. It is in spending those moments after
Communion that He implants on us special intimate
knowledge of Himself.
Jesus: I give to you these
secrets, these secrets of My heart, in these messages
that I have not revealed before in human history to help
bring about the reign of My most Sacred Heart. This will
be a time of great intimacy. I am asking you to help to
spread My messages of love to the far ends of the earth,
to help Me to spread these letters of love. You are My
apostles. Will you say “no”? I have called you by
name. You are My chosen one. I am giving to you grace
that has not been given to the greatest saints. You will
know a time of great intimacy with Me. Will you help Me,
My beloved ones, to spread My letters of love to this
earth?
There will be one flock and one shepherd.
The King will reign on His throne and all will bow down
and fervently love Him. They will kiss the earth and
they will love one another with the greatest love. There
will not be this separation and this division. We will
be one happy family as the Father intended. For He came
and He gave Himself for love of us. This is love. There
is a man hanging on the cross and He does not speak a
word. But if we study the cross, we will know a little
more of how He loves us.
Song: “I come to you with greatest
love…”
Jesus: I am asking you to
read the messages from God’s Blue Book II, to
read the messages on surrender. You must realize that
you are not doing the work that I am the one that is
doing the work through you.

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
- 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 |

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 |

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 |

Priestly Newsletter -
2000 #2 - CD. - Suffering: A Source of Life -
Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year
he died. Fr. Carter knew suffering that year. 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 |
