God has all the power —
God can allow some things to
happen to get our attention so we
change our ways —
I listened to Bishop Sheen say that
here is an example:
here is a pencil — a pencil of itself
is good when it is used for the purpose
for which it was created —
A pencil can write the word GOD
—
But if the pencil is suppose to write
God and instead writes DOG
you can't
do anything with it —
God wants to use us to do His work —
He has all the power and His power
comes to us, but if we don't obey His
commandments, His laws — then we
do not operate with His power — we are disobedient —
all power comes from God —
We have a choice —
We can choose life or death —
Bishop Sheen gave an example of a
man he was meeting and he brought a
woman — Bishop Sheen said you must meet me
or go with the woman —
God gave the man a great grace to
choose good and he did not follow
the gift given —
When God gives us a grace we
can cooperate with the grace to do
what God wants or give into our
old habits —
We have a free will —
Like the man he could have met
and prayed with Bishop Sheen or gone
with the woman — he went with
the woman —
Correcting someone who is our
responsibility when we are over others
may be very difficult — People may want
to just do their things their way even when
it is a bad habit and they hurt others —
When they are corrected by one in charge or
a spiritual director they have a choice to
obey or disobey and continue hurting others
and themselves —
The one over others has a moral responsibility
to do God's will —
God's will is always the right course
of action — Loving for a spiritual director
and superior is doing God's will in
correcting so that the purpose of any
family, Church, school, community
will be for the purpose it was intended —
not to tolerate dysfunctional, isolating
behavior that blocks the work that is
to be accomplished —
Romans 8: 5-9
Those who are living by their natural inclinations have their minds on the things human nature desires; those who live in the Spirit have their minds on spiritual things. And human nature has nothing to look forward to but death, while the Spirit looks forward to life and peace, because the outlook of disordered human nature is opposed to God, since it does not submit to God's Law, and indeed it cannot, and those who live by their natural inclinations can never be pleasing to God. You, however, live not by your natural inclinations, but by the Spirit, since the Spirit of God has made a home in you. Indeed, anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.
We have a free choice to do God's will
or disobey God's will, but when we
disobey God's will, how will we accomplish
work for God — Power comes from God
to do His work —
All the good things we do are because
of God's grace — We can cooperate with
His grace and do good —
We are to live to do things for His
honor and glory — not for selfishness,
seeing through eyes of jealousy, impurities
of the heart for acting out anger and bitterness
on innocent others —
We are to be spreading the Good News —
not ever manipulating another in unloving
ways to act out our anger —
Power comes from God — when one is
under authority and they ignore the authority
to do their own will, they block the power
God is sending them to do a good
task, according to God's will for
Him.
Like a ship off course the person
sails by their own might - which is
a bad way to go —
God is omnipotent
Man has a free will —
He can choose heaven or hell —
Disobedience to God and those over
us means — we
really lose our power —
We give our power to satan and
deceive ourselves thinking
we are in control —
God works in structure —
Jesus wanted this scripture in the Holy Spirit
Novena
Romans 8: 5-9
Those who are living by their natural inclinations have their minds on the things human nature desires; those who live in the Spirit have their minds on spiritual things. And human nature has nothing to look forward to but death, while the Spirit looks forward to life and peace, because the outlook of disordered human nature is opposed to God, since it does not submit to God's Law, and indeed it cannot, and those who live by their natural inclinations can never be pleasing to God. You, however, live not by your natural inclinations, but by the Spirit, since the Spirit of God has made a home in you. Indeed, anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.
God gives us a free will —
Men are killing babies —
Men are defying the commandments
and laws of God —
Remember Ramses and Moses —
Ramses would not let the people
go — they were slaves
Moses kept telling Ramses and
Ramses wanted to show
Moses he had more power —
Ramses wanted to be on top —
|
Ramses wanted to enslave the people —
whipped them to build monuments
for himself
God sent the plagues and
Ramses would not obey —
He saw himself as powerful —
Ramses even lost his son —
But he still wanted to triumph —
so we see Moses with his
staff and he, with the Might
of God, divided the Red Sea —
And we see the scripture on Holy
Saturday night how
the people fighting for Ramses
was consumed and died in
the Red Sea as
the wall of water —
closed in on them
and they died
We see the Noah flood — because of
their corrupt ways God flooded
the earth, but Noah, who was faithful
to God survived. 8 people survived,
but God gave them his covenant with
the rainbow —
He would never destroy the earth by a
flood like that again —
Abraham was faithful to God and —
we see God's might —
God promised him descendants as
numerous as the stars in
the sky
Can you do what the Might of God
can do?
Remember what Jesus said in the Passion —
John 19: 11
' Jesus replied, 'You would have no power over me at all if it had not been given you from above; that is why the man who handed me over to you has the greater guilt.'
When I got this message — it was
2 days after Mary appeared on
the BANK building in CLEARWATER —
A BANK in CLEARWATER
December 19, 1996
Mary: My dear children, I give to you, my Son, Jesus, born in a stable in Bethlehem on Christmas morn. He is the Almighty God, the Light of the World.
I appear to you, my children, on a (former) bank in Florida. You have made money your god! Do you know how cold are your hearts? You turn away from my Son, Jesus, for your money. Your money is your god.
I am Mary, your Mother. I do not appear as I once appeared to you. I am asking you today to circulate my message given on a tape on the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, December 12, 1996.

Mary appeared at Fatima and she
said
Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima
by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
July 13, 1917
"During this same July apparition, Mary showed the three children a vision of Hell. She told them:
"You have seen Hell, where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish, in the world, devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If people do what I tell you, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.
"The war (World War I, then raging) is going to end. But if people do not stop offending God, another and worse one will begin in the reign of Pius XI. When you shall see a night illuminated by an unknown light [January 2, 1938], know that this is the great sign that God gives you that He is going to punish the world for its many crimes by means of war, hunger, and persecution of the Church and the Holy Father. (12)
"To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart and the Communion of Reparation on the five first Saturdays. If my requests are granted, Russia will be converted and there will be peace. If not, she will scatter her errors throughout the world, provoking wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, and various nations will be destroyed....
"But in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world." (13)

We didn't obey the Fatima message and
soon many years later — just
as Mary said — the sign in the
sky and World War II
But the biggest chastisement of this is
the secularism —
man thinks he is equal to God —
man thinks he is powerful
without God
This has risen and risen — secularism
since World War II
Mary said we were to spread the
devotion to Jesus and Mary's
Hearts —
At the end of the century 1994 —
Jesus told Fr. Carter to pray these prayers
for peace in the world
Mary appeared to me daily July, 1994
when I was told by Fr. Carter to say the litany etc.
— under Mary while she appeared.

the building
where Mary appeared daily —
an old seminary —
August 30, 1994
This is where the corner fell off the old seminary in minutes

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."
- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)
Before Mary as she appeared to me
August 1, 1994
August 1, 1994
Pray For The Success Of The Priestly Newsletter - Shepherds of Christ
R. The following is the first official message I received before the statue of Mary at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. It is a personal message for Father Carter.
Mary: (in front of the glowing statue of Our Lady of Sorrows) I am the Immaculate Heart. My Heart is glowing for love of all my beloved children. I am your most loving Mother. I am with you this day. Pray for the success of the priestly newsletter Shepherds of Christ. I am guarding your way. You will receive such graces to accomplish this task! Grace from God is so abundantly bestowed on you and will lead to the success of this endeavor! Pray for this cause at the Center. The priests will lead the people to the love of My beloved Son. This is no little task. It will take many prayers and graces. Pray hard, little one. Your prayers will change many hearts.
I am Mary, your Immaculate Mother. I bring this message to My beloved priest-son.

John 19: 10-11
Pilate then said to him, 'Are you refusing to speak to me? Surely you know I have power to release you and I have power to crucify you?' Jesus replied, 'You would have no power over me at all if it had not been given you from above; that is why the man who handed me over to you has the greater guilt.'

We must seek the truth
I am the Way; I am Truth and Life....
We must obey — the commandments —

Very carefully discerned by Fr. Carter
For Fr. Carter from Jesus:
Jesus: To him who has eyes to see, they will see - not with earthly vision, but with the eyes of faith, and to him who has ears to hear, he will hear with the fluttering of the Spirit moving within him.
I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I am the Almighty God. I say to the rocks to fall and they fall and to the grass, grow, and it grows, and to the sun, shine, and it shines. I give to you My love in these letters. Filled with My love, you will conquer this earth, not with weapons and powder or force, but with fires of My love. The fire will wipe out the hatred in the cold hearts and the earth will be covered with My celestial light. The earth will rock and I will appear in the heavens adorned in power and glory and the contrite hearts will be saved. I came to separate the sheep from the goats, the light from the darkness. I come and no one pays Me heed.
To you, My beloved son, Father Carter, I have sent you on a mission to spread this fire that will cover this earth. The hearts of men will turn from their sick and desolate ways to hearts gentle as a little lamb.
There will be one flock and one Shepherd and My staff will rule over all. Hearts consecrated to Our Hearts will lead the light across the earth. This light will be a light of intense brightness, brighter and hotter than any light from a flame. It will be the fire of God's love. The Spirit will move in the hearts of all consecrated to My Heart, and you will know how fire truly spreads, for the love of God is a fire. It is vibrant. It is encompassing. It is smoldering, burning deep within and speedily spreading on the outside. No fire on this earth can ever describe the burning embers that burn from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. No fire burns like the fires coming from My Heart and hearts filled with the love from the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
I have written your name, Fr. Carter, in My Heart, never ever to be blotted out and this earth will be renewed with the fire of God's love through you. You are My beloved priest-son, forever, according to the order of Melchizedek. Most holy and most sacred are your hands that consecrate the Host and write My precious newsletter for My beloved priest-sons. You are never unguarded. You are held within the deepest chamber of My Heart, and you will spread My love to the priest-sons of this earth.
I am Jesus. You will spread My love to all souls on this earth. I love you with the tenderest burning love. I am Jesus, your beloved Savior.

Chapter 3 Becoming
(Response to God's Love)
Excerpt from Response to God's Love, Chapter 1, by Father Edward Carter, S.J.
...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.

God gives us the natural law —

Some resent God
From the Priestly Newsletter Book III - 2000 Issue 3 p. 44-45
The Father's Will for Us - Our Source of Peace
Pope John Paul II instructs us: "The Church, as a reconciled and reconciling community, cannot forget that at the source of her gift and mission of reconciliation is the initiative, full of compassionate love and mercy, of that God who is love (see 1 John 4:8) and who out of love created human beings (see Wisdom 11:23-26; Genesis 1:27: Psalms 8:4-8)…He created them so that they might live in friendship with Him and in communion with one another.
"God is faithful to His eternal plan even when man, under the impulse of the evil one (see Wisdom 2:24) and carried away by his own pride, abuses the freedom given to him in order to love and generously seek what is good, and (instead) refuses to obey his Lord and Father. God is faithful even when man, instead of responding with love to God’s love, opposes Him and treats Him like a rival, deluding himself and relying on his own power, with the resulting break of relationship with the One who created him. In spite of this transgression on man’s part, God remains faithful in love.
"It is certainly true that the story of the Garden of Eden makes us think about the tragic consequences of rejecting the Father, which becomes evident in man’s inner disorder and in the breakdown of harmony between man and woman, brother and brother (see Genesis 3:12 ff; 4:1-16). Also significant is the Gospel parable of the two brothers (the parable of the ‘prodigal son’; see Luke 15:11-32) who, in different ways, distance themselves from their father and cause a rift between them. Refusal of God’s fatherly love and of His loving gifts is always at the root of humanity’s divisions.
"But we know that God…like the father in the parable (of the prodigal son), does not close His heart to any of His children. He waits for them, looks for them, goes to meet them at the place where the refusal of communion imprisons them in isolation and division. He calls them to gather about His table in the joy of the feast of forgiveness and reconciliation.
"This initiative on God’s part is made concrete and manifest in the redemptive act of Christ, which radiates through the world by means of the ministry of the Church." 13

23. FIRST PRINCIPLE AND FOUNDATION
Man is created to
praise, reverence and serve God
our Lord, and by this means to save his soul.
Man has a free will to rebel
against God's laws and
His commandment —
God is love —
When we act unloving we
are not like God —
We have a choice, a free
will to choose God and
receive the reward of
heaven —
to choose hell because we
rebelled against God and
His commandments —
God loans us the world —
God keeps the world going —
Annihilation never happens
because of God's goodness —
Look at how God governs —
nature —
spring, summer
fish and life of the sea —
a baby in the womb of its
mother —
God is governing

Baptism of Jesus
Matthew 3: 13-17
Then Jesus appeared: he came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptised by John. John tried to dissuade him, with the words, ‘It is I who need baptism from you, and yet you come to me!’ But Jesus replied, ‘Leave it like this for the time being; it is fitting that we should, in this way, do all that uprightness demands.’ Then John gave in to him. And when Jesus had been baptised he at once came up from the water, and suddenly the heavens opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming down on him. And suddenly there was a voice from heaven, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved; my favour rests on him.’

(1) Mary is the Arc of the Covenant.
(2) At the time of Noah only those
on the Ark were saved.(3) Mary is Mother of the Church.
(4) God sent Mary at Fatima and Clearwater.
(5) Those having devotion to her
Immaculate Heart will be protected
in her pure and holy love.(6) Those going to her Heart are receiving
the gifts of the Holy Spirit and
we come forth children of light.(7) Mary appeared in Clearwater as
a rainbow.(8) Those going to the building learn about
the importance of Mary's Immaculate Heart.(9) Few times in the scriptures
Jesus talks to Mary
Jesus talked to Mary at the
Marriage of CanaThis is important —
We see Jesus change water into
wine because of what Mary
saidWe see Mary, Immaculate, Our
Mother, Mother of the Church,
so important to Jesus —
He changed water into wine.(10) In going to Mary's Immaculate
Heart — Jesus sees our
relationship with the pure
Heart of Mary.
The more we dwell in her
Heart the more deeply, we
can be one with Him.
God the Father is pleased to
see us appreciating
this great gift He gives
man in Mary —Mary, Queen of our Hearts —
lead us to Jesus
lead us to God the Father
lead us to your Spouse, the Holy Spirit.
Kingdom of God
(1) Jesus is the King —
(2) When we obey the commandments
and His laws we make Him the
King of our lives.(3) Jesus has all the power.
(4) When we disobey we make
ourselves the king —(5) Power comes from God — to those
in authority — to us.(6) God intends us to obey and
those who do act as instruments
with His Might behind them.(7) Those who disobey God's commands
and laws —
make themselves king —(8) Mary was sent by God to tell us
at Fatima that there would
be an era of peace — but —
- we must pray the rosary
- have devotion to Mary's Heart
and Jesus' Heart
- make reparation
- have the First Saturday Devotion.(9) Fr. Carter got this message that Shepherds of Christ
was to help bring this era of peace and
Reign of the Sacred Heart and
Triumph of Mary's Heart.(10) When men are the king of their actions
and disobeying God, His commandments
and laws — we have DISORDER - corruption.
Transfiguration
(1) Matthew 17: 1-9
Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There in their presence he was transfigured: his face shone like the sun and his clothes became as dazzling as light. And suddenly Moses and Elijah appeared to them; they were talking with him. Then Peter spoke to Jesus. ‘Lord,’ he said, ‘it is wonderful for us to be here; if you want me to, I will make three shelters here, one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.’ He was still speaking when suddenly a bright cloud covered them with shadow, and suddenly from the cloud there came a voice which said, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved; he enjoys my favour. Listen to him.’ When they heard this, the disciples fell on their faces, overcome with fear. But Jesus came up and touched them, saying, ‘Stand up, do not be afraid.’ And when they raised their eyes they saw no one but Jesus.
(2) Moses and Elijah appeared —
Jesus is the fulfillment
of the law and the prophets.(3) Jesus gives us Himself in
the Eucharist and we
become more and more
saturated with His grace.(4) Fr. Carter said we would fall on our
face if we could see our
own graced soul.(5) God fill us with Your truth —
(6) God fill us with Your life.
(7) Help us to be docile and and live to
serve You — ALWAYS.(8) John 10: 1-15
‘In all truth I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold through the gate, but climbs in some other way, is a thief and a bandit. He who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the flock; the gate-keeper lets him in, the sheep hear his voice, one by one he calls his own sheep and leads them out. When he has brought out all those that are his, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow because they know his voice. They will never follow a stranger, but will run away from him because they do not recognise the voice of strangers.’
Jesus told them this parable but they failed to understand what he was saying to them.
So Jesus spoke to them again:In all truth I tell you,
I am the gate of the sheepfold.
All who have come before me
are thieves and bandits,
but the sheep took no notice of them.
I am the gate.
Anyone who enters through me
will be safe"
such a one will go in and out
and will find pasture.
The thief comes
only to steal and kill and destroy.
I have come
so that they may have life
and have it to the full.
I am the good shepherd:
the good shepherd lays down his life
for his sheep.
The hired man,
since he is not the shepherd
and the sheep do not belong to him,
abandons the sheep
as soon as he sees a wolf coming,
and runs away,
and then the wolf attacks
and scatters the sheep;
he runs away
because he is only a hired man
and has no concern for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd;
I know my own
and my own know me,
just as the Father knows me
and I know the Father;
and I lay down my life for my sheep.

help bring about the
Reign of His Sacred Heart of
Triumph of Mary's Immaculate
Heart.(10) We need to pray the prayers in

(1) We need to have the images of Jesus

our peace and the answer

John 6: 35-58
Jesus answered them:
I am the bread of life.
No one who comes to me will ever hunger;
no one who believes in me will ever thirst.
But, as I have told you,
you can see me and still you do not believe.
Everyone whom the Father gives me
will come to me;
I will certainly not reject
anyone who comes to me,
because I have come from heaven,
not to do my own will,
but to do the will of him who sent me.
Now the will of him who sent me
is that I should lose nothing
of all that he has given to me,
but that I should raise it up
on the last day.
It is my Father's will
that whoever sees the Son
and believes in him
should have eternal life,
and that I should raise that person up
on the last day.Meanwhile the Jews were complaining to each other about him, because he had said, 'I am the bread that has come down from heaven.' They were saying, 'Surely this is Jesus son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know. How can he now say, "I have come down from heaven?" ' Jesus said in reply to them, 'Stop complaining to each other.
'No one can come to me
unless drawn by the Father who sent me,
and I will raise that person up
on the last day.
It is written in the prophets:
They will all be taught by God;
everyone who has listened to the Father,
and learnt from him,
comes to me.
Not that anybody has seen the Father,
except him who has his being from God:
he has seen the Father.
In all truth I tell you,
everyone who believes has eternal life.
I am the bread of life.
Your fathers ate manna in the desert
and they are dead;
but this is the bread
which comes down from heaven,
so that a person may eat it and not die.
I am the living bread
which has come down from heaven.
Anyone who eats this bread
will live for ever;
and the bread that I shall give
is my flesh, for the life of the world.'Then the Jews started arguing among themselves, 'How can this man give us his flesh to eat?' Jesus replied to them:
In all truth I tell you,
if you do not eat
the flesh of the Son of man
and drink his blood,
you have no life in you.
Anyone who does eat my flesh
and drink my blood
has eternal life,
and I shall raise that person up
on the last day.
For my flesh is real food
and my blood is real drink.
Whoever eats my flesh
and drinks my blood
lives in me
and I live in that person.
As the living Father sent me
and I draw life from the Father,
so whoever eats me
will also draw life from me.
This is the bread
which has come down from heaven;
it is not like the bread our ancestors ate:
they are dead,
but anyone who eats this bread
will live for ever.
(4) We are filled more and more with His
life when we go to the
Eucharist.(5) God gives us a sharing in His
life at baptism and
He feeds this life with
His Body and Blood.(6) Through Jesus' pierced Heart the
Church was born —
water for baptism
blood for the Eucharist.(7) We pray the Sacred Heart of Jesus will be
the King and Center of all
hearts and places on this
earth —(8) Help me to do what Mary
told us at Fatima and Fr. Carter
and me at the end of the
century.Jesus, Our King, help us
spread this consecration
to the world.(9) From the Mass Book

SHEPHERDS OF CHRIST AND FATIMA
In the Shepherds of Christ, we are a family, joined in one heart in Mary and Jesus' Heart because of our consecration to Their Hearts. We are acting as His Heart beating in this world. We are the modern day apostles joined in one heart.
As we give our hearts to Mary, the Holy Spirit gives us lights to know God and we go forth into the world as lights because we love God so much. We cannot know God and not love Him. So our hearts are filled with the burning love of God.
We Are One in Jesus' Heart
The core leaders contact the coordinators. The coordinators contact the individual apostles. All apostles are working for Jesus. They try to spend one hour a day either in front of the tabernacle or at home alone with Jesus. In this hour, Jesus directs them on their life. They share intimate love with Jesus. He teaches them about Himself and the Father's will for them. It is so important to spend an hour of intimacy everyday with Jesus.
We live by Mary's Peace Plan given at Fatima. It is as follows:
Until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.
Mary has requested all to pray the daily rosary.
We must observe the Five First Saturday devotion:
- Communion, confession (within 8 days before or after the Saturday), recital of the rosary, meditating for 15 minutes on the mysteries of the rosary. All this is to be done in a spirit of reparation.We must make reparation to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
His plan centers around this.
We have heads functioning in the individual ministries. Everything we do leads to consecration of hearts. As the apostles press on the three institutions, the Church, family, and school to help spread the consecration, the strayed ones will be led home to His Heart.
Mary said at Fatima, until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.
The Present Condition of the World
Peace will come when hearts are hearts of love. The scales must shift. It will happen through the consecration. Mary's peace plan: until a sufficient amount of people consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace.
The Scale Must Shift
The Father looks to the earth; He sees much darkness.
The Father looks to the earth. There are so many hearts that are not on fire for love of God. The hearts of burning love light up the earth. It is as lights on a Christmas tree. It is sparsely lighted. Therefore, the tree looks dark.
As the Shepherds of Christ Movement spreads (as well as other movements focused on spreading consecration to Their Hearts) the tree is covered with more hearts filled with burning love for Jesus and the earth becomes more lighted.
The tree is covered with hearts consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. The tree is so bright.
As the Shepherds of Christ apostles spread the consecration to the Church, the family, and the school, the tree is covered with lights and the earth is covered with the fire of His love.
The Father looks to the earth now. He is displeased with the hearts of men. The Father wants us to love God and love each other. He wants us to live according to His will in love.
Mary appears at Fatima. She tells us that we are offending God. She tells us what we must do. Mary's peace plan:
Until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.
Mary has requested all to pray the daily rosary.
We must observe the Five First Saturday devotion:
- Communion, confession (within 8 days before or after the Saturday), recital of the rosary, meditating for 15 minutes on the mysteries of the rosary. All this is to be done in a spirit of reparation.We must make reparation to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
Mary said there will be an era of peace, in which the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph.
God gave us Mary as our Mother. We are disobeying our Mother's requests given at Fatima. Do you think the Father is pleased with willful children disobeying their mother?
Man disobeys, the devil blocks the Fatima message. World War II happens just as Mary said.
Jesus writes His message of love on our hearts. His life lives in our hearts. The Scriptures and the Mass live in our hearts.
In the Shepherds of Christ Movement, our focus is on the priest.
