Prayer for Grace for our Country
Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

R. Love gives.
Love gives and is not afraid to give.
Love forgives the offenses that are needed to continue building God's Kingdom.Forgive and you will be forgiven.
Jesus was whipped for our sins and God forgives the penitent sinner.
Forgiveness of others is an act of the will.
Jesus showed how He took on all the sins of the world and He did this so we could have forgiveness of our sins,
Forgiveness of others.
In families where people are to work as one, children learn at an early age about right and wrong.
Children learn how parents work with each other to keep being united and moving ahead.
Children learn about compassion and forgiveness and what is right from parents and care takers.
Children learn at home about authority and how to work together in love and fairness.
Children learn about building the bridge and admitting when they are wrong and being forgiven from mom and dad because they are sorry. Their parents love them so much and want what is right and build up the family unit.
Children can be abused because of generational anger, and mom and dad may never say they are sorry when they give into unjustified anger.
Children learn about having their needs met or not having their needs met.
Children learn about obedience to authority or abuse of parental authority when children are used as a scapegoat for parental generational anger.
Children learn about male roles and female roles from watching how parents treat one another and work with each other.
So, there are many ways parents can teach what is good and Godly, and many ways parents can ignore dysfunction from generations past and force it on innocent children in the family.
We are commanded by God to put Him first and to love Him with our whole heart, our whole soul and our whole being.
Somebody else cannot love for us. It is an act of our will to love or not love, to want to change bad habits and reactions we may have learned in a dysfunctional home to work with others.
To live as we should is to live the Gospel message.
To know the Gospel and spell it out for others - to preach it, but not live it is not the idea.God calls us.
We respond - We are to live the Gospel message and obey the commandments.This means learning the truth about our defects of character and asking God to remove them as we give ourselves in willingness to have them removed.
Fr. Carter always told me to the extent I grow in a relationship with a significant other or close others as God intends - I will be able to grow in My relationship with God and to the extent I grow in my relationship with God, I will be able to grow in my relationship with a significant other or others that are close to me.
We are to see the truth about ourselves and wish to grow more and more in the image and likeness of God.
This takes admitting the truth about our faults.
Giving ourselves in relationships and learning to change those things that are in need of change in us.Jesus gave me the Prayer for Union with Jesus 27 years ago.
He began giving me His love letters 30 years ago to publish and tell others secrets into His great love for us, insights into the hidden mysteries, insights into relationships with God and others and ourselves.
Jesus wants to prepare us for the heavenly kingdom of love where we have the fullness of life and all are one in Him.
Jesus wants to prepare us for the heavenly kingdom.
We have a free will to say yes, but we must be truthful about our defects of character and pray for help to live pure and holy lives - in love - with God's help. God is good all the time.
First to thine own self be true.
We need God.
We seek to live virtuously.
We must have faith in God's promises.
We live the Gospel message.No man is an island - we are here to love and work with each other under God.
Take the high road.We pray for God's guidance to live by the will of our heavenly Father.
The Our FatherOur Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
R. Dear God give me your help and support, in my going in and out as I put my faith in Thee.
Surrender, surrender, surrender to God's will and live - in love.
Celebrate the gifts God gives us in the Holy Spirit guiding our lives.
Be grateful for the supernatural virtues we receive in baptism.
God gives us a sharing in His life in baptism.
Learn to forgive as we see Jesus in the bitter passion and to His death on the cross - Jesus died for our sins.
We must thank Him and recognize this enormous love He has given us.Sing: A Song from Jesus
R. God created us all - Pray for the priest, the Church and the world as God asked Fr. Carter to do.
Prayer is love.Pray to grow more and more in love like Jesus who showed us His love.
God is all powerful, we are put here to grow more and more in God's image and likeness.We are a work in progress.
We are always in the state of becoming.
We pray for the Church and the world in the state of becoming.Disciples are learners.
When we quit learning, we quit being disciples of Jesus.We have a wounded human nature.
If we do this the rewards are out of this world!!!!
April 22, 2021 - Second Message 5:22 am
R. Peace is found in God.
If we want peace it must depend on God.
Let go to Him.I can be focused on others and their actions toward me.
Many times, these can be bigger than the problem depending on past baggage that can be triggered by an incident.A child may have been treated demeaning by a parent
and at 60 or 70 hear another sound demeaning and create a whole host of past baggage that one can react to.Perfect healing.
We need healing in our hearts.
Our lives are lived to ask God to strengthen our faith, hope and love in our hearts. We ask God to fill us with His love in our heart.
To partake in His loving activity which is a gift we receive in baptism.
If we partake more fully in His loving activity, we are loving more and more purely in Him.We can love on a natural level with our wounded human nature - or try to love.
The source of love is God.
We receive great gifts in baptism - we can partake in God's loving activity because of baptism.We pray to the Holy Spirit to enlighten our hearts.
We live out our baptismal promise and live in the Holy Spirit as mature Christian solders from Confirmation.We embrace the gifts given to us in our sacramental life.
We receive the Eucharist, eat His Body, and drink His Blood.
We can go to confession and receive forgiveness and grace to live holy lives strengthened by the grace confession gives us.Our life is lived in Him.
A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
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.
-Mass Book, December 27, 1995
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.
Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, life.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
It is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
R. Peace is in God.
April 22, 2021 - Third Message - 5:43 am
Sing: Prayer for Union with Jesus
Prayer for Union with Jesus
(refrain)Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.
Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.
I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.
Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart. (refrain)
I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.
Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.
(refrain)When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.
Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart. (refrain)
R. Mary's Heart is
Gentle and Pure.
Mary is the Spouse of the Holy Spirit.
We ask the Holy Spirit to come and fill our hearts.
The Holy Spirit and Mary are the two sanctifiers in our hearts, Archbishop Martinez says.
We can work in mildness
and God can work in our hearts with His strength.
The devil comes in confusion, chaos, noise to cause an eruption, a
clamor to steal the peace that comes when God the Holy Spirit is working
in the soul.
Lifting one's heart to God is the key to strength.
My spirit is restless, my God, until it rests in Thee.
I seek your strength in my
soul now and forever.
Letting Go to God despite what is going on in chaos around me.
Feeling His presence and
the Holy Spirit in my soul.
Luke 1: 46-55
And Mary said:
My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
from their thrones
and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
of Israel his servant,
mindful of his faithful love
—according to the promise
he made to our ancestors—
of his mercy to Abraham
and to his descendants for ever.
R. Holiness - surrendering oneself to God for the strength needed to live the Gospel message and be a witness even in the face of adversity.
Holiness is found only in
God.
Having the interior life rooted in His peace, knowing His presence in
our soul even in adversity.
Come to me Lord and possess my soul!!!
God in me and me in Him.
Total reliance on Him,
bringing peace and strength in my soul even in the greatest struggles.
Turning it all over to His enormous power and love in our hearts.
Purifying the stubborn heart and soul and burning off the old stiff ways
with the fire of His love.
Fire - like tongues of
fire from the Holy Spirit.
Like Fire from the Heart of Jesus - a fire in my soul that burns like
the bush shown to Moses endlessly and not consumed because God is there.
The fire of God's love is not extinguished - it never dies or goes out.
Read Blue Book II so full of the Fire of God's love.
Surrender to the God who
has all the power.
Why let your moods be determined by triggers that satan wants to
manipulate to take your peace.
Peace is in Him - He has
all the power.
He gives us strength - go to Him as a little child of the Father.

Healings
from
The Building of the Two Hearts

2. After using the Jesus water, pain and non-movement (for 3 years) in my fingers was healed instantly. Now fingers are cracking and working and no pain. Has taken x-rays.
3. Ruptured ACL Ligament and PCL ligament left leg (knee) and damaged meniscus. 3-4 weeks excruciating pain. MRI showed damaged ligaments - went to do surgery and scopes revealed no damage other than meniscus injury. Day before surgery we came here to pray for healing. Wife anointed knee with Jesus water. Were told prior to surgery that would be out of work 3-6 months and surgery would be 4 hours. Surgery was only 40 minutes and recovery time is 1-2 weeks.
4. My best friend (a couple) was granted a son, which now is my godson. They've been married for a long time but never had a child until they both came to see the Virgin Mary's image.
5. I just wanted to tell you we have had so many prayers answered most especially since we have had the image statue in our home a few months ago. Prayers being miraculously answered for our children & grandchildren, our daughter's heart has literally almost healed ... she is also pregnant and that is also a miracle that she carried the baby this far, she is so thankful and also her cardiologist can't figure out how she is doing so well, and even agreed with her it must be prayers being said for her. He also told her in her 4th month to abort the baby, maybe he will have a conversion, we hope. Others in my family have changed since we got the statue. They are more understanding and patient and love being a Catholic more than ever before ...We thank Jesus, Mary, Rita and you all. Praise all of heaven. We are also so eager to have many more prayers answered. We are giving our married children a 10 inch statue each for their homes and red prayer manual if they would also like to say the prayers if they so choose to. The statue we know will help them with many graces as they pray before it as it has helped us in our home and lives. Love you all.
6. Pregnancy. (A long note about how a woman got pregnant after she came to the Virgin Mary Building.)
7. My mother was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in April 2005. She received the Jesus water of Clearwater that my brother brought to El Salvador. She was treated at Instituto Salvadoreno del Segino Social. She was expected to live 3-6 months. She lived well for 2 years. Now she rests in peace with Lord Jesus and Virgin Mary. She died of Pneumonia March 21, 2007.
8. The CAT scan showed a dark spot and they thought they would have to remove my right kidney. My family went to the Blessed Mother and asked for prayers and help. They also got the healing water. Well all our prayers were answered. There was no cancer or tumor. Thanks for all your prayers and help, and thanks to the Lord above.
9. Knees were injured from motorcycle accident July/August 2006. His mom got the water in Florida right after the accident and took it to him and he used it every day and now his knees are completely healed. He knows Jesus water did it.
10. Suspected blood clot. Pain in leg with swelling. Jesus water was used and pain went away and swelling.
11. Barretrs -- My husband brought Jesus water to hospital and put on my stomach. Biopsy came back fine.
12. A man from South Carolina came to thank Jesus and Mary for his healing. His brother sent him Jesus' water when he was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Three doctors told him there was nothing they could do for him. He started using Jesus' water and started feeling better (He could hardly walk, he was using a wheelchair a lot). He went back to the doctor and tests showed no more cancer — gone! The doctor told him he never saw this happen before. He is around 70 years old and walks and feels normal.
13. A lady from Egypt wrote asking St. Mary for a baby for 3 years. She helped me and now I have a little daughter. Her name is Mariam after St. Mary name by my language. Thank God and Thank St. Mary. She always remembers me. - Egypt
14. This woman filled out a healing form at the site. I am so blessed by the Blessed Mother that she has been there for me on more than several occasions. She performed a miracle on all occasions, one in particular was cancer of the right leg. The doctors wanted to cut my leg off the cancer was in the bone. When I returned to New York and went to a plastic surgeon he saw the cat scan and said my chances weren't good. When he did the surgery the cancer was not in the bone. It was superficial.
15. Stroke. Healed August 2006.
16. A year ago he went to Orlando for a test on his prostate. It was positive. He came here in May and got some Jesus water out of the trough. He went back to the doctor and he was healed. - Venezuela
17. Infertility. Conceived and gave birth exactly 9 months after our first visit to Clearwater in August 2000. Our son was born exactly 9 months after our visit (May 20, 2001). I've had surgeries on both ovaries in 1998 and had very little chance of conceiving. Mother Mary gave us our blessing and wish.
18. Peter was operated on for cancer he had for 10 years on his leg and because the wound was so big, they had to take some skin from another part of his leg to be able to fix it but it did split. So Monday the doctor said that another surgery was needed but thanks to Jesus water on Wednesday on that same week he was healed. - Argentina
19. Cancer of the lungs. A friend of ours who we visit from Canada. He told us of his illness and we came and prayed at the Virgin Mary's appearance on March 28, 2006.

21. Neuropathy. He had gotten Jesus water a few days ago and went to the doctor yesterday.
22. Pregnancy. I could not become pregnant. I came here to ask Mary to extend her hands on me, to be able to have a child. The miracle happened. I did not know that other women had become pregnant by asking Mary. My son is 3 years old. I am convinced that he is called to be special in his life, he has a mission. When she went to see the doctor, specialists, they said forget it, she couldn't have a baby, and she went to many different ones. Came here to pray and became pregnant. All the doctors never understood what had happened. They said he is a miracle child.
23. Pregnancy. Became pregnant of twin girls after we prayed in 2005 and even have a statue of the Virgin Mary in our yard. After 15 years of concubinage Virgin Mary finally blessed us. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Jesus water was used to help conceive.
24. A woman came in today from New York and said she was here last March (2005) and got the Jesus water. Her cousin who was very healthy and had just retired at age 60 suffered a massive stroke. He was taken to the best neurological hospital in New York and the doctors said he had no chance of recovery. He had a blood clot at the base of his brain stem. He was in intensive care and the woman with the other family members were visiting him and she put Jesus water on him and they prayed over him, while he was laying in bed in a fetal position unable to talk was paralyzed. After she had left (only 30 minutes of visitation in Intensive Care) the woman received a call from her cousin's wife saying the man had sat up in bed after they left and was miraculously healed. He is back at home now. The doctors came in and said this was a miracle. This was 2 months ago.
25. Dermatomyositis (a form of Muscular Dystrophy). I was given 6 months to live. I was really depressed ready to give up when, while being in town for my girlfriends niece's Christmas Party. I heard it on the news. (December 17, 1996) Decided why not let's go, when I got here I was not expecting to see what I saw. I couldn't believe what I saw. Within an hour I put the cane down, slowly but surely got better enough where I wasn't paralyzed or dead. Thank you Jesus and Mary.
26. Small Bowel Syndrome. Infant acquired surgical intervention at birth. 4 months care at home. Healed completely as of May 2005.
27. Newborn very sick - 2 lbs. My mother came to visit me. We used to live in the post apartments by Target. I brought my Mother to the Virgin Mary Building in Clearwater and she prayed for my niece, who was in Guatemala. When my Mother returned to Guatemala she took the picture of Virgin Mary and put it in my niece's room. When my niece was born, she needed a tube feeding. She couldn't eat on her own. She was very thin and very sick. Many people told my sister and my mother (including the doctors) that my niece was so sick that she probably would died. Thank to our Lady Virgin Mary, my niece is a healthy gifted 9 year old girl. - Guatemala - Healing was at 6 months old.
28. My daughter was told she had thyroid cancer, after having one side of the thyroid removed they found the cancer was gone. This had to be due to Mary and Jesus Water and her belief in the Mother and Son.
29. Virus. He was in Egypt. His relatives came to the site and asked for prayers for healing for him. That same day they were here he was completely healed of his Liver virus. He is a physician.
30. After waiting about 8 months for the baby to get bigger for the surgery, the doctor checked him and couldn't believe it, but she said, "It just fixed itself." He was 4 months premature and this surgery would have lowered his sperm count significantly and its already been lowered by a double inguinal hernia surgery.
31. Burst tube with unexpected pregnancy. Was internal bleeding. Doctor told was miracle, surviving from this kind of operation. She (the mother) had come to the site and prayed to God if this Image (Our Lady of Clearwater) was from God to grant her a miracle. Her daughter who was in Lithuania at the time was in the hospital and the above miracle happened during the 2 hours the mother was praying at the site.
32. Heart failure. He was not breathing. Jesus water was poured on him while praying. He started breathing again.
33. When I was pregnant, my baby was sick. My baby born was well. Thanks.
34. Flu. Both sitting in car, praying rosary both sick of flu. He very sick, not getting better. Both used the water, felt pain leave body, didn't say anything, but after few minutes he said "I feel pain is gone." They drove back to tell us that they were healed.
35. Asthma. Put Jesus water on neck. Breathing much better.
36. Severe back pain. Have a bad back from laying brick for years and sometimes I bend over and the pain is severe and it takes at least 3 or 4 or more weeks for it to go away. I put Jesus water on it and it went away in 2 days. Alleluia.
37. I must admit that some days I forget to wash in the water. But I have felt the same feeling once again a few days ago as I did on March 2nd, the first time I applied it to my knees. On the movie that you took, I am walking on the beach without a cane. I don't know if you noticed. I didn't use the cane yesterday, and I have no pain. I'm still slow at climbing the stairs, but I'm seeing a tremendous improvement. I'll keep a journal, and continue updating you I pray a lot, as I'm applying the medicine. Part of my prayer is "If it be your will." Thank you. I'll be in touch soon.
38. My husband had a good friend and he was diagnosed with cancer and given less than a few weeks to live. Jesus told me to take him the Jesus water. I never really met him, but I went to the hospital. He was so sick. He bounced up and said I knew it - I will be healed. And he lived over two years longer.
39. Leukemia went into remission February 7, 2003. Her doctor can't believe how well she is doing. She has the worse kind of Leukemia there is and she is doing extremely well. He said this does not happen, so soon, we told him its because of all the prayers, everyone is saying for her. The day after we visited the Blessed Mother Building, her blood count was excellent. Thank you so much. As of 11/3/2004 she is still in remission and doing very well, a happy 10 year old little girl. We are all so thankful for all the prayers from everyone, we truly believe, if we hadn't had our faith and by going to the Virgin Mary building so often, we wouldn't have been so fortunate to have her. Prayer is still the most powerful and healing process. Thank you so much.
40. Spinal Manangitas. December 16th, 2002 we almost lost our little grandson. He was taken flight for life to Madison where they worked on him for hours. They told us he would either be blind - deaf - brain damage, or he might not walk. Today he is a happy - healthy little boy full of life. Thanks to everyone's prayers to our Blessed Virgin and our heavenly Father, without them we would not have him. Thank you. As of this date November 3, 2004 our little grandson is doing very well, a healthy happy little boy, and so full of life, and without any complications. Our prayers and by going to the Virgin Mary building truly helped this little boy. Thanks to everyone for all their prayers.
41. After my family visited the Virgin Mary and returned to hospital, I showed no sign of having a stroke. Doctors at hospital said I would not recover.

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. $10 |

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. $10 |

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. $10 |

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. $10 |
