                April 2, 2016 - Easter Saturday

                R. The Cardinal virtues are prudence,
                temperance, justice, and fortitude.
                The cardinal virtues help a man
                to choose what is good.

                Man must want to do God's will –
                Man is to use right reason in the
                pursuit of good and his sense
                appetites must be as they are
                supposed to be.

                    Man is to be in the right place
                in loving himself and loving others –
                There is not disorder in him with
                regard to the giving into the bad
                habits or vices of the deadly
                sins where man gives into
                his self in pride to be above God
                and others, in jealousy and anger,
                in envy and slothfulness, lust,
                greed, gluttony. There is not, in
                the man who has the cardinal
                virtues, that struggle and conflict
                to be out of order with others –
                The man who has the cardinal
                virtues has right reasoning to
                pursue good – to follow his
                right reasoning to be made more
                perfect in his actions – not
                swayed by sense appetites, not
                out of disorder. He moves
                ahead with the right will in
                pursuing good and right reasoning.

                Dear God, help us to not give into
                the deadly sins or bad habits, vices
                that choose wrongly in pride, envy,
                greed, wrath, lust, gluttony, and sloth.

                Dear God give us the virtues of prudence,
                    of temperance, of justice and
                    fortitude to perform good
                    actions and to lead to greater
                    perfection in our relationship
                    with You and others and
                    ourselves.

                Help us in gaining greater happiness
                    by living according to God's
                    will and help us to have
                    right reasoning, to disciple
                    our wills and not give into
                    sense appetites to excess
                    that can lead us to unhappiness when
                    they are out of control, undisciplined.

                Dear God help our actions to be governed
                    by the goal to see our eternal happiness
                    with You forever in heaven and
                    not put other goals of our own unruly
                    self-will before the goal that
                    brings us true happiness forever
                    in heaven.

                    Help us to have unity in
                living by the Plan of God the Father –
                choosing His will and living
                in unity with our brothers
                in a virtuous life. Outpour
                Your grace to us to choose
                our actions for the good You
                want and to have right reasoning
                and control of sense appetites.
                We want our lives to be in
                sync, with Your timing, Your
                will, with truth and love.
                Dear God please help us – outpour
                Your grace, help us to live in
                prudence, temperance, justice
                and fortitude.

                    With the theological virtues
                our vision is God. In baptism
                we receive the virtues of faith,
                hope and love. Our knowing
                and loving capacity is elevated
                so we can know and love
                supernaturally –

                    Dear God increase in us
                the virtues of faith, hope and
                love –

                    Help us to see through the
                eyes of God – the vision of
                God the Father –

                    Dear God please help us to
                see as we need to see – to live
                according to the will of You –
                Our Heavenly Father –
                Help us God to know You more
                and more and Your plan for
                us –
                Help us to know about You
                God, lead us to pursue
                that goal that will lead
                us to eternal happiness
                with You forever in heaven –

                Help us to see through Your
                eyes, to hope for eternal
                salvation for ourselves and
                others and to love on a
                supernatural level through
                the Heart of God.

                Dear God help us to grow in
                the virtues of faith – giving
                us more and more the vision
                of God, of hope – helping us
                to live to be with you for
                all eternity and in love –
                loving with Your love for
                You and others and ourselves
                in our hearts.

                Increase in us, dear God, the
                infused virtues of faith, hope
                and love we received in
                baptism – we pray today and
                for the rest of our lives –
                Help us to be what You want
                us to be, mold us more and
                more into the image of
                Jesus.

                    Help us God to live as St. Paul
                says in Galatians –
 

Galatians 2: 19-20

...I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me.
 

                R. Give us strength to do Your
                will, oh heavenly Father –
                to love God and man passionately
                as You desire us to love
                likened to Jesus who gave
                Himself to His death on the
                cross for our sins.

                    Help us to be Easter people –
                dying to our bad habits
                and rising to new life
                in You, God – Help us to be
                more and more perfected
                as the heavenly Father wants
                us to be –

                    Help us to be likened to Jesus!
 

Act of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

"Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock, I consecrate myself to Your most Sacred Heart. From Your pierced Heart the Church was born, the Church You have called me, as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, to serve in a most special way. You reveal Your Heart as a symbol of Your love in all its aspects, including Your most special love for me, whom You have chosen as Your companion in this most important work. Help me to always love You in return. Help me to give myself entirely to You. Help me always to pour out my life in love of God and neighbor! Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You! +

"Dear Blessed Virgin Mary, I consecrate myself to your maternal and Immaculate Heart, this Heart which is symbol of your life of love. You are the Mother of my Savior. You are also my Mother. You love me with a most special love as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, a movement created by your Son as a powerful instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. In a return of love, I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock."

The Ten Commandments Rule

January 7, 1994 3:20 a.m.

Jesus: ... Pray for strength, America. Pray for faith and trust in God. Come and sit in front of My tabernacle and be led down the right road. I make all things work for you when you stay fixed in Me. Do not fume, do not fret. Spend one hour in prayer in front of the tabernacle every day. Let Me work in your heart and you will run and not get weary. You will fly on eagles' wings and I will be by your side. Though heaven and earth pass away, not one letter of the law will pass away.

R. Alleluia, Alleluia. Praise the Lord for He is Holy. He comes as a mighty wind into the midst of His people. His power is without limits and He does not falter on His way. He will come and dwell in you, but you must stay fixed in Him. Your gift to this world is your time spent in front of the tabernacle. Your gift to this world is your love of God. Your gift to this world is your soul saturated by the love of Christ which shines in a dark world. Your gifts are the time you spend with Christ and His dwelling within your breast.

Jesus: Read these letters. They are My letters to you to become close to Me in all this darkness. America may have forgotten God, but I did not forget you. This is the mighty medicine to turn men's minds and hearts back to God. If I came and I died a brutal death for love of you, would I not send a mighty medicine this day to save My loved ones? These letters are My love for you. I am ever present this day and yearn to be in communion with you. Your relationship with Me will save this sick world. Come and let Me lead you. I am He Who loved you to My death.

Do I not love you this much this very day? I am Jesus, Son of the Living God. Do not fume or fret, America. Make ready your hearts for His coming. It is in your love that I am alive in this world today. Busy yourselves in the things of God. That is your weapon in this sick world. Read and reread each letter hand delivered by Me to you. These will make Me live in your hearts and you will preach mighty lessons of My love to your brothers.

Alleluia, I am God. Alleluia.   end of excerpt
