June 15, 2014 - Trinity Sunday - Received at 12 a.m.
R. Being a witness to Christ means we want to be as He wants us to be in the world.
That means living in God's love and loving God's will.
It means living to reach more and more full Christian maturity.
It means growing to be more perfected in Charity - in love of God first and love of our neighbor as ourselves.
That means we only want what is God's will for others.
We do not use others to fill our sick needs.
We are reaching to be more perfected in Christian Charity (love).
Charity means we seek God's will first.
We are all sinners, but we are taught by the example of Peter, we see he was accountable and responsible for his sin.Matthew 16: 23
But he turned and said to Peter, ‘Get behind me, Satan! You are an obstacle in my path, because you are thinking not as God thinks but as human beings do.’
R. We are here because we need conversion Mary said at Fatima.
We cannot wear masks before others and hide behind an angry heart.
We will close in when we live this way deceptively.
God knows every nook and cranny of our hearts.
If the attitude is untruthful about the healing that needs to take place for wounded relationships, we can hide behind that falsity and blame others for our sins.We are here to empty the bucket of our sins.
We see how the body works.
We eat to live.
We keep what is good for life we discard the waste.Everybody works on this principle.
To try to lie to ourselves that we are never wrong is to deny the woundedness of our creaturehood.
To deny the wounded family tree.
To recognize that others before us needed healing as they went through life and trained us sometimes in ways that we need to change.To live in the truth means to die to the self will of using any person, place or thing for our sick needs.
A child is a gift God gives to a Father.
Today is Father's Day.A Father is to be an example like The Heavenly Father more and more.
The Heavenly Father is love.
The Heavenly Father gives to each child a free will to obey Him.The Heavenly Father makes children unique and has a purpose for the child in life.
A child to grow to greater Christian maturity must seek the Heavenly Father's Plan for their life.
A child is to receive help from their Father to grow to be what God wants them to be - what God's will is for them.
Children are not to live to duplicate their parents or to fill in for their wounded parents.Children do not belong to parents like possessions.
Children are to grow to be independent of their parents to follow the Plan God the Father has for them.
Fathers are to be pure in their desires for their children not use them co-dependently or even expect them to feel sorry for them.Children are to break the umbilical cord from the adult.
Little boys break the umbilical cord when they grow up from their mother.
Children are not possessions.
When ever a person does not do God's will for them and they do something that is not God's will, two sets of people suffer.
One is called by God to serve a certain way - thus others depend on their commitment to do God's will - example of obedience, faithfulness, commitment, love, all that doing God's will entails, to build as God calls a person.
Likewise if one fails to do that - that whole group God is calling them to serves, looses out and the ones they take their time with now, are off also.
So if a person should be in Indiana because it is God's will for them, but instead they are in New York -
the people in Indiana loose out
the people in New York are being taken on a false ride with the man in the wrong place at the wrong time.I have watched how the devil works - he is the great opposer of God's will.
He presses on people with their week tendencies to the deadly sins.
They are pride, greed, envy, wrath, lust, gluttony, and sloth.So the person rather than building faith in the vision of the Heavenly Father sees more and more distortedly through the eyes of satan.
Not only their reasoning becomes twisted, their whole vision can be tainted the more they give into bad habits and satan.So the angel before the apparitions at Fatima said to pray for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope and do not love God as they should.
Mary at Fatima told us we were to convert - that is die to our selfish ways and grow to be like Jesus.
Mary told us at Fatima, Jesus wants His Heart venerated next to Mary's Heart.
Consecration to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary lead to hearts of unity.
Jesus says to be in one mind and one heart with Him and with the people He called us to work with to help build His Kingdom.Being in one mind and one heart in the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, means we are dwelling in the Two Most perfect Hearts of love.
Our call in life is to grow in more and more perfection in Christian Charity in love with God and loving our neighbor as ourselves.
Boundaries - there are laws in God's way He set things up.
Natural Laws.
How God intend relationships to be.
In World War II about 66,000,000 were killed.
One source said .025% of the whole world was killed.Do you know that, that many people, died?
At the trials at Nuremberg the men who killed so many Jews denied what they did,
they did not take responsibility for the truth.
Satan is like that - he coaxes a person to disobey a commandment - to go against God's will.
Then the person can be tempted by satan to be indignant if anyone questions the wrong doing.
Satan wants their wrong to be accepted as right.God made rules to follow.
There is a commandment, thou shalt not kill.
Satan works in the mind of those who let him, in pride telling them they can do wrong and wrong is okay.
At first a man, once married was faithful to his marriage, when tempted by lust, or whatever, the desire, a much more younger person came along, so he at first was afraid when he started sneaking around on his wife, but the more he did it and lied to his wife, the easier it was for him to prefabricate a story and lie easily.Lying can become a habit to an end.
Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.
When lying becomes a habit we open up a door to satan.
Satan is the father of Lies!!!We were put here to walk in the footprints of Jesus.
After a person is used-to lying, they have more and more distorted thinking and it is easy for them to lie to justify what they want.Jesus is truth.
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth.
It is God the Father's will to tell the truth.Lying pushes us away from what God wants of us, but satan then in that distorted thinking, tells the person the wrong they are doing is okay.
And so the thinking becomes more and more twisted and - the end to such a person justifies the means to get what they want.Lying is a bad habit that drives us further and further from God.
Our whole life is to center in following Jesus.
Instead of judging things in truth, people who then lie, judge things according to the evil spirit and his ways.
When ever we allow ourselves to engage in a sin that is becoming more and more a real part of us we are going in the wrong direction.
A married man is not to have an affair with another woman, no matter how he justifies his actions, if there are issues he must straighten them out with the Church, not sneak around in front of children and hurt a lot of lives.This is the first message in God's Blue Book 1.
Cling to Me
May 13, 1993
Jesus: My dear child, if you stay close to Me, then I live in you and you live in Me. I am He Who created you and I love you with such an intensity that you will never know. My words are your truth. You must abide in My heart in all things. There is no room for doubt. My ways are steadfast, direct, and without error.
You must stay rooted in Me to ward off the power of the evil one. His grip is paralyzing and crippling. His power is stronger every day.
When you live in Me, I am in your heart and he has no power over Me. I am your God. I am your true lover. I want to protect you. I want to guard you from this force. Stay rooted firmly in Me and he will have no power.
I am He Who comforts you. My hand is upon you. Hold tight to Me, My child. My eyes are fixed right on you. You are My most precious child. I love you as no other can. My arms are about you. My tenderness surrounds you. My love is in your heart. You go not alone. I walk with you.
I share every aspect of your life with you. Cling to Me, feel My presence. It is warm and secure within your chest. There is no room for fear, for I cast out fear and bring you comfort and joy.

R. That was 21 years ago.
What leads to love and trust in the heart?
What leads to unity with others, as God intend of us,
as when people marry the two are to grow in oneness with each other, communicating and dying to selfishness and growing in love.
A man may grow up in a family where he was given recognition for his achievements from his parents, but they never really had time to help him grow to be close to others in his heart.
He could have learned love was based on his achievements so he tried harder and harder to achieve more and more and couldn't get close to anyone in love or trust anyone, instead he just kept doing what he did harder and harder which would never lead to unity of heart in relationships because he would not go out in love.In his pride he would seek affection in the wrong places because of his loneliness.
He never knew why nothing really worked for him in intimate relationships and he refused to see he needed to change.He tried to force his dysfunctional ways on everybody else and became more and more angry with them, when he pushed everybody away because of his own inability to trust any one, and because he wanted such independence.
He was so miserable and he became more and more alone.
He worried that he may get really sick and knew he had no one to help him, but he made his independence a god and he didn't see through his twisted thinking he had no one and he was getting older and older.
There are many people who narrow their lives down to a corner in which they have no adults they can work with because they have forgotten the greatest commandment is to love.
Jesus: What is there when you do not love?
You were created by Me to love God first and love your neighbor as yourself.You were not put here to see how independent you could become.
A person can learn the waiting game of procrastination from their own life.
Then they can actually try the patience of another waiting until they try to make others mad to get a reactions because they don't move on anything like they should.
In working intimately with others one sees their imperfections.
A child was forced by their parents to be a perfectionist - they would not tolerate anyone who was not like them - they needed healing - they needed to change.
Satan works in boredom. If a person is sitting still and does not have the understanding of ones love union with Me, they can give into certain games that are wrong behavior because they are bored.Life is to be lived realizing that you are to seek the Father's will.
How will communities be formed where people are to be in one mind and one heart if anybody can do what they want and the rule is to challenge the authority,
Such disorder will never stand, will never grow, but deteriorate, I operate in order.
Romans 8: 5-9Those 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.
Jesus: A person that is angry may use their job to punish others if they are mad. How would they ever hold a job? Is this loving likened to Me?
Would any person be able to live with another that punishes them because they feel mad or bored?The devil can work in old tapes telling some one what they may think is others rejecting them when no one is even thinking about them.
A person tempted by the devil can tell themselves things that aren't even happening and try others and get mad for their own untruthful thoughts.
This is the twisted thinking a person opens themselves up too when they let satan talk in their heads and they entertain this kind of run-on thinking.You are to walk in My footsteps.
To be living your life loving the will of God.
To be dying to self destructive ways that drive yourself from your own happiness because of what ironical things you tell yourself. Are you a friend to yourself?
Quit blaming others for your unhappiness when you are your own worst enemy with your negative thoughts.There are those who are hypochondriacs - who give themselves any excuse with their health to not do what they are supposed to do.
In any relationship there is commitment.
Leaders show others good example by supporting the institution, by enthusiasm, by standing erect and selling their wares.A person that wants an open door and never commits to anything because of lack of trust and love is missing what life is all about.
It is about relationships. I died on the cross for you.
I came to this earth.People are so divided, just to be divided, how it wounds My Heart for this division when I have given them so so very much.
To one much is given, much will be expected.Some people can spend their life hurting others because they were wounded - how have you wounded My Heart of love. How have you treated others with lack of commitment, holding out and using what I gave you to build My Kingdom in manipulation to hurt others in division? How My Heart was so wounded for the division of men - just because they delighted in punishing righteous men with their anger.
What have you learned as a child that you need to let go of?
What habits have you developed in your life because of fear and wounds of others in love?
How do you avoid thinking, "you are perfect" and trying to change everyone to be like you?How has your desire to control others given you a feeling of power when you have lost power with others who put you down?
If a parent demanded that a child wait on them - then they can dawdle and not act when they are told to.
They are still the little child of the mother - never caring when they should and arguing when they didn't.
They have a problem every time anybody is trying to work with them because of their 'command-response' issues from childhood and in anger they refuse to listen, to work with any person who wants to just talk about anything like 'buying dog food at the store'.
Who can live with such a person - so filled with themselves, they are ready to fight and demand a challenge when a problem arises and sometimes cause a problem, just to start a fight for excitement and adrenaline going.They are like a man living in quicksand and their parents or whoever they are responding to, is still standing over them with a furious command.
Children are little. Angry demanding parents are big.
It is sad when a man can't change his patterns when he is 50 because he is still responding to what he learned at 2.A girl would begin to shake if anybody told her what to do.
Then whenever she had the chance she would disobey to show she could do what she wanted. She was just responding in unreasonable ways to her parents (not even there), causing problems for herself and others dealing with her.
What a game of hurt for those trying to just do a simple thing working with others.Do you look for a place to be, what you are because you don't want to change? Is there no moving ahead because you are 'head-strong' in your bad habits and use punishment to try to force your way on others?
Problems are to be solved.
There is to be commitment in relationships - in vocations.
Disorder is disorder and it can stop all growth - lead to shrinking and people who give bad examples and call themselves leaders, then, give bad examples that make bad habits develop. Bad habits in leaders can force others to follow because they are self-centered and not looking for the good of what they are called to.
So many people will not even listen to the Gospel and yet they call themselves Christians - growing in the Christian life.
When you aren't loving anybody past your family, you aren't learning much about love.
Love is to go out and to see yourself as part of salvation history.
Love is recognizing you are a member of My Mystical body if you have been baptized and you are commissioned by Me to go out and to be a witness to spread the Good News.The devil wants you closed in on yourself.
The devil wants you to be thinking of yourself and not follow My example.
The devil wants you to try to mold others into your image and likeness that are bad habits and you need to take a good look at your little bossy child inside and change in mature ways of acting.You are to grow to full Christian maturity, more and more in the Christian life.
Life is not life if it is not rooted in Me.
I am the vine, you are the branches.
You must recognize you are to change your old patterned ways and working in relationships intimately helps you to grow, if you are working with someone who is trying to be likened to Me.
For those who use punitive measures to force their bad habits, they are hurting the building of My Kingdom and tearing down what others are trying to build.
The person being punitive, is serving satan not Me.It takes effort to want to change.
It takes My grace.
It takes prayer and truthfulness.
It takes love to be like Me.There is like default, you go back to, when you are pressed on, when you are struggling, when you are tired, when you are hungry, and so you can go back in an instance to your bad, bad habits of handling things.
It can be seeking power, it can be doing something to get attention, it can be doing something against the boss, so you can start something and show your power.
A lot of people do things to get power, affection when they feel a loss of power, things are not the way they want - so they go to another source and force their way to get power back.
A man was divorced and when the children went on vacation with his x-wife he did all kinds of bazaar things that hurt the work he was involved in and others were forced with his conflict and suffering because he used some sense of his power to force them to accept it.
When Katie's mother was telling her what to do she found another outlet to get her power back and it was not the right way things were to go.
How is your interior disposition when you go to Mass, to offer yourself united to My sacrifice, to the Heavenly Father in the Holy Spirit?
How pure is your heart when you loose power with people in your past life and you have a bad habit to do something that hurts everybody who is trying to build up things around you and you 'pull-a-rug out from under' them to get your power back?
Why do you make power your god?
Why aren't you focused on loving Me and serving Me?
I amAll-Powerful.
How are you responding to commands in your past life today?
Does it sound like your Father or Mother so you rebel, disobey, react and fight an innocent person trying to work with a situation.
How did your parents teach you to solve problems with people of the opposite sex?
Was there a person who dominated in your house?
Were you the 'hero-child'?
Were you the scapegoat' and you were going home for the holidays so you knew you would be made to do their 'old dance' of scapegoating -so you challenged everybody around you before you left to go home - to get in control - to try to avert the old way you thought they would be treating you, you did this, before you went home.
Love knows no bounds.
A person that is rooted in My love is growing in the spiritual life
they are not like a leaf blowing in the wind that can get manipulated - if they are trying to learn to love and be more perfect in charity.A man started a fight with his boss over everything. He would do it before others.
He would be like a woodpecker trying to keep at it until he 'passively-aggressively' attacked to get the one over - him to loose control - then he was cool and happy the boss was discredited.He wanted no one over him.
Life in heaven is being under God, being in the Father's will.
A man opposing God's will hurts himself.You may ask yourself if your father rejected you, ask yourself how was the attitude of your parents toward you in loving and caring and supporting you.
How was their attitude in helping you in love to solve problems?
Was the house a combat zone?
Were other siblings given more recognition than you, or so you felt like this....What are your attitudes about communication and supporting each other as brothers and sisters - in - Christ, at home?
Is your life a continuation of your rejected attitude from the past, your shame you felt,
your dominance from angry parents,
Did your parents support you and teach you to respect your siblings and work in love?
Did you have a mother that loved her role - married to dad and being your mother.
Did she teach you that women were important to Me - like Mary, My Mother.Are you afraid of abandonment, because of something in your past?
Did you learn as a child to love and respect yourself as being important to God's Plan? Were you taught you better get out of the way and you still are telling yourself these things everyday that tell you - you are unlovable?
Have you learned balance in your life, by natural laws of living?
Do you act like a 2 year old when solving a problem or a child that needs to be in control of everything and so nobody can work with your old ways of childish behavior?
Don't put yourself on automatic pilot trying to make others put up with a little child inside that wants their way so you just fight because you are not even growing in communication, working together, problem solving, obedience - what a sad way for a gift given from Me to help you to grow in your loving capacity and sharing in My loving activity.
What a waste to let an unruly child not commit to the Father's will and live in fear and rejection, rebellion because of your stilted self-talks.Who is your friend when you have sent everybody away and blame others for your negative self talk, you have used for 50 years on yourself.
This is a message from God to help you grow in the spiritual life.

Rita asked me "Would You use my hand to write a book." October 5, 1992.
This is the letter I gave her and more and more
To those who listen they will know a new life in Me.
I am Jesus, I am the Son of God.
You were created in My image and likeness.
October 5, 1992 - 3:30am
R. Dear Jesus, Give me Your hand to write this book for you. I am your servant. I want to be Your hand to this world. If you, Lord Jesus, would write a book, what would you say?
Jesus: My dear children,
Today I come to deliver a message to each of you. I want to tell you of each person's dignity, of their beauty and their self-worth. Each child is, oh, so uniquely precious to My Most Sacred Heart. Each child is full of the talents I have given to them. Each person is divinely created by God and given all these gifts to be happy and love one another.
The problem comes when you feel you will be left out. That you will be left by another who has trodden on you and will do it again. I see you all as My most precious children. I watch your every move and know all pain and anguish in your heart. My Heart aches, you have insecure feelings about yourself. I came to this earth I died for you. I felt cold, hungry, lonely on this earth. You need not worry that no one knows the pain and anguish in your heart. God created you with such special gifts and talents. It is important for you to raise above your wound and forgive those who hurt you.
You need only turn your will and your life over to Me and I will guide you in all your ways. I have all the Power. Many are not of My ways. The key to life is to recognize your faults, but still know you are this precious gift of My Father a gift to this world. This world is in need of your strength. Running yourself down, blaming others hurting them can cause you misery and pain. At this very moment, you are the precious creation of God!! You must operate with Me in your heart.
You need not run yourself down. I am with you every day guiding your ways, lest your foot stumble and you lose your way. You will not wander far from your path if every day you keep bringing your focus back to Me. If you dare let Me be at the helm, if you dare to really let Me run your life, I will do with you such wonders that you yourself would be amazed. But you will know with such ease when you did these things that you did not do them alone. You will know My power, moving the mountain, My power chipping at the stone, My power working on your hardest problem and you will be set free.
Oh yes, you will be set free and know a serenity that only comes from letting go and letting Me run your life. To you, My child, I have given all that is good. I made you My holy soldier, My warrior in a world of pain and hatred. You are the light that shines in the darkness, you are the coat to a cold child, you are the smile that warms a troubled and lonely heart. You are the comfort for everyone you meet, because My most precious Heart powers you, smiles through you, understands and loves through you.
Love your fellows for Me. There are so many troubled hearts that need to know My love. I can love through you if you let Me, I can be their friend through you if you let Me. I am He who comforts you and you are he who comforts them. My power is endless, it never runs out, there is not a power failure EVER. In your darkest hour, My light shines in the darkness and I say to you, "Oh blessed of My Father, look at yourself with awe, you are My creation, you are indeed so precious to Me, you are My light to this world, you are My hands and My feet and most of all My Heart."
Oh, you are My loving Heart, to those who are bowed down, to those who are lost in the darkness, you carry My smile and wear My armor in a world that is trying to tear one another down with hate and ugliness. There is gentleness, there is love, there is hope in you, if you open yourself up to Me. Be My knight to the world, wear My armor. I am your God and I will protect you from the darkness. Plug into My power, be not afraid, I go before you always and you can rest in My arms when you feel weary. You can put your head in My lap and weep, you will know, I am truly with you and you are My light to this world. I created you so special - to cast out fear in the darkness, to clothe the naked, to give hope to the oppressed, to be as I live in you and love through you and you are My smile and I touch My hurting ones through your love.
You are he who loves this world. You must stay plugged into My power-source. This world is hungry for My love. It needs My love, I give to them through you. I am your God and I made you as a gift to the world. You are filled.
Focus on Me and your life will be abundant and whole, joy in suffering, freedom – but you can take the knocks because you will know you do not go it alone, but with Me. I love you My precious child.

The Father, Son and Holy Spirit want to dwell
in us. In baptism we are given a sharing in
God's life. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit
dwell in our graced, baptized soul.
T
HE EARTH STOPPED AND TOUCHED HEAVENI long to unite in the deepest union with Him in the Eucharist. I long for the Mass. I long for Thee, oh God. My every moment, I join as I did to You December 15 under the cross, where I felt Your presence. You whisked me away, and I was totally absorbed in that moment of celestial union with You. For that time, I existed only in You, in the deepest union, and I was in this moment existing in You. The earth stopped, and I touched the heavens, all my bodily cares were existent in You. I existed in Your Divinity, my being was in You. There was no desire or wish or wanting, for in that moment, I had all I wanted in You. I was satisfied and wanted nothing but to remain in that embrace. You were the Being, and my being existed in You, but I was only as I was in You - merged in You, knowing and being in Your Divinity and being so full as to feel complete in myself.
You are so enormous, and You surrounded me in a burning embrace, the presence of red fire. I was not little, or "nothing", but existed in this enormous power and being so complete!
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. To describe this union is far beyond any work of my pen and paper. I pray for the reader of this page to receive the grace to share this experience with Him, I will now live for this union-to be forever merged In Him, to be One in Him, to reach higher perfection as I exist in Him, for He takes the lowly and gives to them a sharing in Himself. He merges with us and we exist in Him. The word "in" - I could write pages about. I long for the deepest union with Him, where I am swept up in the heavenly embrace of the Divine God, and I am IN Him.
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.
The word I have looked for is "oneness." I understand some of the meaning of the words "One in Him." Oneness is the word to describe this union of our humanity with His Divinity. The depth to which we could meditate on oneness with God is incomprehensible. In that moment, the earth stood still, and He, my Divine Lover, the Bridegroom of my soul, took me to Himself, and I knew the embrace of the Divine God.
Nothing on the face of this earth can describe our union with Divinity. Oh, good God, that creatures are so ungrateful regarding Your divine love. I am so sorry. Let me help make reparation to Your adorable Heart. Please unite with me now that I may more deeply love Thee.
Oh, Divine Lover of my soul, let me help make reparation to Your adorable Heart for the neglect and indifference against You.
Song from Jesus: I come to you with greatest love. I am your loving Savior. I am your God. I died for you. I come to you this day.
He allowed me to experience such pain in my heart - wanting Him so badly, so many times-and then on Dec. 15, 1995 - He gave Himself to me in the deepest union.
Nothing satisfies the soul but Him. He wants the nuns and priests to love Him. He chose them to spread His love.
Souls are hungry. They will only be fed with His burning love. Priests need to talk about Jesus' love for us from the pulpit. Priests need hearts burning for love of Jesus. This will feed the hungry souls - lip service love doesn't do it.
He is alive today. He is a Person. He wants us to love Him.

IN THE DEEPEST RECESSES OF HIS HEART
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.
I knew the room was red and warm. I knew His immenseness, but I felt my own completeness in Him. I did not feel little, as a speck, but elevated and empowered for I existed then in Him in a most special way.
I was overtaken by the love of God. The fire of the Holy Spirit filled me. I was absorbed by the love of the Father, and I existed IN Him and in the deepest recesses of the Heart of Jesus. Our heaven on earth is these inner chambers of His magnificent Heart - the Heart of the Almighty God, with all the power, with omnipotence, with the fire of the love of God. He took me to the deepest chamber of this fiery Heart, and in that moment, I touched eternity, for I knew what it was to be enveloped in the deep furnace of His love. I now want to exist in this chamber of His Heart, swept away in His burning love, absorbed in my every cell with His love.
We do not understand the fire of His love. We do not understand what it is to be absorbed by love itself. He took me to the inner, deepest chamber of His Heart, and I felt the heat and knew the presence of love itself, and there was no fear, only a feeling of completeness, omnipotence, all-embracing, penetrating love - a power indescribable in words, a saturation of my being in the presence of God, and I was as I was created to be - living in Him!
This is how I will forever live my life, saturated with His divine life and love deep within this inner chamber of His burning Heart, living in Him as He possesses my being, and I operate with His power in me.
Little creatures though we are, we are His, His power, His life, flowing through us. In Him, we are as the Father intended: one in Him, each one of us, dwelling in this fiery furnace of His love. With our fears quieted and our hearts empowered by His life, we live forever in Him - in the Heart of Jesus.
Let no man separate what God has joined together. I am wed in the deepest love with my beloved Spouse, wed to the Heart of Jesus. As I am, I am one in Him. I live and I breathe in Him. He, Who is love, He Who is our all, He Who is mighty and without limits, He Who is, He Who is God and as I live, He lives in me in this world.
I am wed to Him, and I shall not fear for He is God - one, complete, loving, God. Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in Thee. As I live, I live in Your most adorable Heart, the furnace of God's love!

From December 18, 1998
Jesus: I desire the salvation of each and every precious soul. I know them all by name and I love them. When I died on the cross, I intently loved each precious soul. In this Mass I have allowed you to experience this connection to souls so that you will plead at every Mass for the souls of the earth. Many are in a very sorry state with no one to pray for them. Who will pray if you are silent? Your brothers are falling over and dying, and it is much worse than any death of the body, it is a death of the soul.
You think I do not hear your pleadings. I act on your soul with such emotion that you will share the sufferings of My Heart during My bitter Passion. I knew each and every soul by name and I gave Myself to My death for them.
I ask you to refer all to the message of God's Blue Book December 20, 1993. What makes you think that, with such love in My Heart for souls that I came to earth and died for them, I would not send some mighty medicine for the sick children of the earth this day? I hand-mixed this medicine and the children will not know of it, if you are silent. My Blue Book messages are My gifts of love given to a thankless race. My Blue Book messages will lead men to My ardent love, to the love of My Sacred Heart. I am pleased with the love and devotion of My little remnant in Florida. Heaven wants the children of the earth to unite in fervent and heartfelt prayer at 6:30 p.m. praying My Shepherds of Christ prayers and the rosary, begging for a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
My earth, you go after the molten calf and you do not know the gifts I give you. You do not know the depth of the Heart of Jesus wherein is found the burning embers of My divine love.
Oh My children, I long to embrace you and take you to the depth of My Heart, wherein are found treasures. In My Heart is found the source of divine love and life, and the burning embers burn bright for the chosen souls that go there. I take you into that celestial warmth of My Heart, and I bathe you in the most precious love.
This is My gift to you.
December 17, 1991 His Burning Heart
I was alone in All Saints Church after Mass and Communion, in front of the tabernacle, when I saw the Sacred Heart. It was red around the outside, then a layer of yellow and then the brightest light in the center. I felt heat and it looked like an open furnace.
I thought about it all day and it instantly gave me peace and warmth in my heart. This is the purpose of these letters–to draw hearts to the ardent on-fire love of Jesus. I received the following message that day:
"Open your heart to the fire of God's love. He is ablaze in your heart. He wants to dwell in you and love you and others through you. Love God, yourself and one another and experience the fire set aglow in your heart and experience the warmth of His love."
Jesus: I wish My shepherds to be united in deep prayer in their hearts with one another dwelling in Our Hearts.
I will all to be united, wherever you are, pleading in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the souls of the earth, pleading for the Shepherds of Christ intentions. Do not give up, unite in a deep union in your hearts, wherever you are. Feel this pulling together in intercessory prayer with one another wherever you are.
You are one body.
I ask Felix to continue to carve My body on the crucifix. I will guide his hand.
I was formed in the womb of the Virgin through the power of the Holy Spirit.
I desire that the crucifix is sculptured before the image of My Mother in Florida.
I ask all to pray during this novena before Christmas for the coming of Christ alive in their hearts this Christmas. Include the priestly newsletter in all your Shepherds of Christ intentions and also the prayer chapters and the spreading of the consecration and the material I have given you. You are praying for souls. At every Mass see yourselves joining as one body, all over the earth, pleading together for these intentions. Unite in the greatest oneness in the Morning Offering, praying to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the intercession of the Virgin Mary, with all the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory, in union with Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

From the Priestly Newsletter Book III by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. - 2000 - Issue 3
The Indwelling of the Trinity and the Life of Grace
The spiritual life, the life of holiness, begins at Baptism. Archbishop Luis Martinez says:
"When we are born we are endowed by God with all we need for our human life, a complete organism, and a soul with the full range of faculties. Of course they are not all developed from birth, but we have them then as the source of everything we are going to need in life. And thus it is also in the spiritual order. When someone is baptized, he receives in all its fullness that supernatural world which the Christian carries within his soul. He receives grace, which is a participation of the nature of God; the theological virtues, which put him in immediate contact with the divine; the moral virtues, which serve to regulate and order all his life; and the gifts of the Holy Spirit, the divine, mysterious receivers for picking up the Spirit’s inspirations and movements."2
Another author states: "The Three Divine Persons inhabit the sanctuary of our soul, taking their delight in enriching it with supernatural gifts and in communicating to us a Godlike life, similar to theirs, called the life of grace.
"All life, however, implies a threefold element: a vital principle that is, so to speak, the source of life itself; faculties which give the power to elicit vital acts; and lastly, the acts themselves which are but its development and which minister to its growth. In the supernatural order, God living within us produces the same elements. He first communicates to us habitual grace (the life of sanctifying grace) which plays the part of a vital supernatural principle. This principle deifies, as it were, the very substance of the soul and makes it capable, though in a remote way, of enjoying the Beatific Vision and of performing the acts that lead to it.
"Out of this grace spring the infused virtues and the gifts of the Holy Spirit which perfect our faculties and endow us with the immediate power of performing Godlike, supernatural, meritorious acts.
"In order to stir these faculties into action, He give us actual graces which enlighten our mind, strengthen our will, and aid us both to act supernaturally and to increase the measure of habitual grace that has been granted to us.
"Although this life of grace is entirely distinct from our natural life it is not merely superimposed on the latter. It penetrates it through and through, transforms it and makes it divine. It assimilates whatever is good in our nature, our education and our habits. It perfects and supernaturalizes all these various elements, directing them toward the last end, that is toward the possession of God through the Beatific Vision and its resultant life." 3
Our being in the state of sanctifying of grace and the special indwelling of the Persons of the Trinity within us always exist together. We cannot have the one without the other. Our life of grace, which is a sharing in Trinitarian life, allows us to know and love Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in a most intimate fashion. Through grace we are in the image of the Trinity, and we enjoy special relationships with the Divine Persons.
Again, we listen to the words of Archbishop Martinez as he speaks about our relationships with the Divine Persons:
"Love, we have said, is the foundation of devotion to the Holy Spirit, as it is also the foundation of Christian perfection. But love as a reflection of God, as His own image, is something that encloses within its simplicity a boundless wealth and a variety of forms. Who can fathom the depths of love?
"Human love in all its manifestations is admirably in harmony with the love of charity; it is confident in filial love, trusting in friendship, sweet and fruitful in the love of husband and wife, disinterested and tender in the love of a mother. Our love of God must include all these forms of human love; every fiber of our heart must vibrate when the harmonious and full canticle of love bursts forth from it. But since God is one in essence and triune in Persons, our love for Him takes on a particular aspect accordingly as it is directed to each one of the divine Persons.
"Our love for the Father is tender and confident like that of children; eager to glorify Him as His only-begotten Son taught us to do by word and example. Love for the Father is the intense desire to have His will fulfilled on earth as it is in heaven. Our love for the Son, who willed to become flesh for us, is characterized by the tendency to union with Him and transformation into Him; by imitation of His example, participation in His life, and the sharing of His sufferings and His Cross. The Eucharist, mystery of love, of sorrow, and of union, reveals the characteristics of this love.
"Love for the Holy Spirit also has its special character, which we should study in order completely to understand devotion to Him. We have explained how the Holy Spirit loves us, how He moves us like a divine breath that draws us to the bosom of God, like a sacred fire that transforms us into fire, like a divine artist who forms Jesus in us. Surely, then, our love for the Holy Spirit should be marked by loving docility, by full surrender, and by a constant fidelity that permits us to be moved, directed, and transformed by His sanctifying action.
"Our love for the Father tends to glorify Him; our love for the Son, to transform ourselves into Him; our love for the Holy Spirit, to let ourselves be possessed and moved by Him."4

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.
John 16: 6-11
Yet you are sad at heart
because I have told you this.
Still, I am telling you the truth:
it is for your own good that I am going,
because unless I go,
the Paraclete will not come to you;
but if I go,
I will send him to you.
And when he comes,
he will show the world how wrong it was,
about sin,
and about who was in the right,
and about judgement:
about sin:
in that they refuse to believe in me;
about who was in the right:
in that I am going to the Father
and you will see me no more;
about judgement:
in that the prince of this world
is already condemned.
John 16: 27-28
because the Father himself loves you
for loving me,
and believing that I came from God.
I came from the Father
and have come into the world
and now I am leaving the world
to go to the Father.'
John 17: 20-26
I pray not only for these
but also for those
who through their teaching
will come to believe in me.
May they all be one,
just as, Father, you are in me
and I am in you,
so that they also may be in us,
so that the world may believe
it was you who sent me.
I have given them the glory
you gave to me,
that they may be one as we are one.
With me in them and you in me,
may they be so perfected in unity
that the world will recognise
that it was you who sent me
and that you have loved them
as you have loved me.
Father,
I want those you have given me
to be with me where I am,
so that they may always see my glory
which you have given me
because you loved me
before the foundation of the world.
Father, Upright One,
the world has not known you,
but I have known you,
and these have known
that you have sent me.
I have made your name known to them
and will continue to make it known,
so that the love with which you loved me
may be in them,
and so that I may be in them.
Prayer for Union with Jesus
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.
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.
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.

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."

From October 11, 2012
R. The Christian life is centered
in Christ
Christian Existence!
God is the ultimate mystery —
Mystery means hidden —
Hidden in His interior life
unless He chooses to
reveal Himself
R.
The Mystery of God becomes
the Mystery of Christ!
In Christ, God tells us about
Himself, about His inner
life, about the plan of
creation and redemption —
Father, Son and Holy Spirit want to
dwell in us in intimate fashion
The Eucharist is the most
intimate act when
God gives Himself to man.
God gives us a sharing in
His Divine life in
baptism.
Through Christ we share
in God's life —
The life of grace and we say
Through Him, With Him and In Him
R.
We offer ourselves united
to Jesus to the Father —
in the Holy Spirit
Paul says:
This mystery is shared with
us His holy ones —
Hidden from generations
past —
CHRIST IN US
Our Hope of Gory —
As we share in the Mystery of
Christ — it is our hope
of Glory —
The Mystery of the Christian life
is rooted in the Incarnation —
The Mystery of His Life in us
is summed up in Christ.
The inner life of God becomes
the outer life of God in
Christ.
The Mystery of Christ IN us
The Christian life is rooted in
the Incarnation
Everything the Father wishes
to tell us is summed up
in the life of Jesus of Nazareth.
Hebrews 1: 1-6
At many moments in the past and by many means, God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets; but in our time, the final days, he has spoken to us in the person of his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things and through whom he made the ages. He is the reflection of God's glory and bears the impress of God's own being, sustaining all things by his powerful command; and now that he has purged sins away, he has taken his seat at the right hand of the divine Majesty on high. So he is now as far above the angels as the title which he has inherited is higher than their own name.
To which of the angels, then, has God ever said:
You are my Son, today I have fathered you,
or:
I shall be a father to him and he a son to me?
Again, when he brings the First-born into the world, he says:
Let all the angels of God pay him homage.
R.
He would (1) Release us from the dominion
of sin
(2) Elevate us to a new
level of existence
Grace permeates Nature
The Christian is meant to be an
expression of the Christ-life.
Christ has come to perfect
the human nature and
lead it to graced fulfillment.

June 15, 2014 - Trinity Sunday
Trinity Sunday Cycle A
Exodus 34: 4-6, 8-9
So he cut two tablets of stone like the first and, with the two tablets of stone in his hands, Moses went up Mount Sinai in the early morning as Yahweh had ordered. And Yahweh descended in a cloud and stood with him there and pronounced the name Yahweh.
Then Yahweh passed before him and called out, ‘Yahweh, Yahweh, God of tenderness and compassion, slow to anger, rich in faithful love and constancy,
Moses immediately bowed to the ground in worship, then he said, ‘If indeed I do enjoy your favour, please, my Lord, come with us, although they are an obstinate people; and forgive our faults and sins, and adopt us as your heritage.’
R. Fr. Joe said today –
Moses was leading the people from slavery –
There was so many gods – 700 different gods
The Babylonians had 700 gods.
They thought gods were vengeful
So if you forgot to pray to a god
you had to get up and pray to them
because you didn't want them
to get mad at you.
The Hebrews believed in the one true God.
But the Hebrews, some of them, strayed away
and worshipped false gods.
In 1300 BC when God was leading the people
out of Egypt through Moses,
God told them His name.
The name God told them was 'Yahweh'.
They never pronounced the name except once a year.
The high priest said it –
When they saw it in the writings, they said
'Lord' rather than 'Yahweh' –
As we hear now in the first reading
Say Glory Be
Glory Be
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
2 Corinthians 13: 11-13
To end then, brothers, we wish you joy; try to grow perfect; encourage one another; have a common mind and live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
Greet one another with the holy kiss. All God’s holy people send you their greetings.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
John 3: 16-18
For this is how God loved the world:
he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him
may not perish
but may have eternal life.
For God sent his Son into the world
not to judge the world,
but so that through him
the world might be saved.
No one who believes in him
will be judged;
but whoever does not believe
is judged already,
because that person does not believe
in the Name of God’s only Son.
R.
We pray for all fathers for their support and love and
selflessness
In the mystery of the Trinity – we know God is
one God, from the Jews. Jesus came and spoke
of His Father, Jesus called Himself God –
Jesus spoke of the Father as if He was equal
to God –
Jesus said He was the 'I AM' –
Jesus said He existed before Abraham –
Jesus prayed in John 17 –
He prayed for Himself, His Apostles –
Jesus spoke of the Spirit of Truth – the
Holy Spirit.
The Council of Nicene professed
what we say every Sunday
in the Nicene Creed.
They said the Father is God,
the Son is God and
the Holy Spirit is God.
Nicene Creed
I believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven:and by the Holy Spirit
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered, died, and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in fulfillment of the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified.
He has spoken through the prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
R. God is the ultimate mystery.
We accept this mystery, as a mystery.
God loves us and wants to
share Himself with us –
He wants us to know and love Him.
In Baptism our knowing and loving capacity
is elevated.
God does not want division.
The doctrine of the Trinity is
fragmentally presented
in the Bible.
