From Today's Mass
Sirach 48: 1-14
Elijah
Then the prophet Elijah arose like a fire,
his word flaring like a torch.
It was he who brought famine on them
and decimated them in his zeal.
By the word of the Lord he shut up the heavens,
three times also he brought down fire.
How glorious you were in your miracles, Elijah!
Has anyone reason to boast as you have? -
rousing a corpse from death,
from Sheol, by the word of the Most High;
dragging kings down to destruction,
and high dignitaries from their beds;
hearing a rebuke on Sinai
and decrees of punishment on Horeb;
anointing kings as avengers,
and prophets to succeed you;
taken up in the whirlwind of fire,
in a chariot with fiery horses;
designated in the prophecies of doom
to allay God's wrath before the fury breaks,
to turn the hearts of fathers towards their children,
and to restore the tribes of Jacob.
Blessed, those who will see you,
and those who have fallen asleep in love;
for we too shall certainly have life.Elisha
Such was Elijah, who was enveloped in a whirlwind;
and Elisha was filled with his spirit;
throughout his life no ruler could shake him,
and no one could subdue him.
No task was too hard for him,
and even in death his body prophesied.
In his lifetime he performed wonders,
and in death his works were marvellous.
Psalm 97: 1-7
Yahweh is king! Let earth rejoice,
the many isles be glad!
Cloud, black cloud enfolds him,
saving justice and judgement the foundations of his throne.Fire goes before him,
sets ablaze his enemies all around;
his lightning-flashes light up the world,
the earth sees it and quakes.The mountains melt like wax,
before the Lord of all the earth.
The heavens proclaim his saving justice,
all nations see his glory.Shame on all who serve images,
who pride themselves on their idols;
bow down to him, all you gods!
Matthew 6: 7-15
How to pray. The Lord’s Prayer
‘In your prayers do not babble as the gentiles do, for they think that by using many words they will make themselves heard. Do not be like them; your Father knows what you need before you ask him. So you should pray like this:
Our Father in heaven,
may your name be held holy,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we have forgiven those
who are in debt to us.
And do not put us to the test,
but save us from the Evil One.
‘Yes, if you forgive others their failings, your heavenly Father will forgive you yours; but if you do not forgive others, your Father will not forgive your failings either.
Jesus said to pray the Our Father.
Our 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.
From December 21, 1998
CONNECTION and DIVISION are IN THE HEART
Jesus: If the heart does not beat right, if it fails to function, the life does not flow through to the body.
I give you My life. The connection is in the heart. My Sacred Heart is the source of life for the body.
As you live in love, you will connect more and more to one another.
There are many religious orders that are not like a family and that do not operate in love.
How can you assume your role in the Father's family when your own families in religious orders and in families have lost that main connection to one another by failing to discuss the things of the heart?
Much of the conversation today is of a superficial nature. The world discusses the sports, the news, the economy, politics, facts, all the things of factual nature.
You were created to love. If your family is focused on the world and trying to be like everyone else, you are missing the unique beauty with which the Creator created each and every special soul.
My children, look at your faces, see how different they are. The Father looks into the heart. Every heart is from a uniquely created soul.
When each person is realizing his full potential according to God's will, there will not be jealousy and a struggle for power.
Reference October 3, 1993 Blue Book I and I quote from Blue Book I:
Use Your Talents
October 3, 1993 Chicago Marian Conference 11:30a.m.
Jesus: I have a divine plan for you. I created you with special gifts and talents to be used to do My work. They are not for your own self-promotion. You, My child, are nothing except as I created you. Why try to promote yourself? It is none of your own doing. I gave you the talents you are using. You had nothing to do with it. These talents were given to you to do My work. To use these talents to make yourself feel better than your brother is indeed a sin. You must realize they are loaned to you to work for Me. As you give someone a car, or loan them a place to stay, I loan you your talents to use to work for Me. If you do not work for Me and use them to make yourself better than your brother, you are offending Me. Likewise, if I give you talents and you do not use them because you think you are not as good as your brother, you are not being thankful to Me for My gifts to you. You are not using My gifts and that offends Me greatly. Each person was created by Me to do My work. Each person has all he needs to do My work. To be envious of others is fruitless. They have their job. You have yours. You are not supposed to do their work. That is why you were not given their talents.
Do your own work. Don't be envious of your brothers. Don't hide your talents. You did not earn them. I gave you your talents. You must sing because I will it. Others must do as I will them to do. It displeases Me to give you a gift and watch you hide it and make light of it. I give the gift. You must use all your gifts. They were given to you to do My work. Your brother has his gifts. Be grateful for your brother and he should be for you. You are all chosen by Me for a special mission. You know what to do. It feels right. I plant little seeds in your heart and all you do that is for you in the end feels right. You are not to be doing your brother's work or he yours. Talk to Me that you might know just what your work is and do it.
Do not hide your talents. Praise your God Who gave you these talents. Embrace and use them. This is not pride. This is My plan. I love you. I give to each of you, My precious children, as a mother who buys special Christmas gifts for each child. To buy gifts all the same for all your children is not to respect their specialness, their individuality.
Oh, I love you, little ones, so much. Please come to Me. I am so good and I wait to be with you and share My love with you. Come now. This is your top priority. All else will work when you come to Me first. I love you. You are My chosen children. Come and be filled and I make your loads light and I fill you with the Spirit of Salvation.
All roads that lead to Me are the right roads. Praise Me for I am good and I love you, little dear ones.
Jesus: In the Shepherds of Christ Movement there must be this connection in the heart. All are united in love with one another. In a moment I can give you everything you need. I can rain money from the sky. America, you have made money your god.
I come to form the hearts in love. It was the consuming love in My Heart for souls that I felt when I gave Myself on the cross.
Do you have this consuming love for one another? You must be loving. You operate from your hearts. You operate as a body. You walk hand in hand.
A family that knows love will work to full potential. People wander, for they are hungry and not being fed. The devil has lured your children from the kitchen table to the things of the world. What has happened to the family meal?
You will reestablish relationships, intimately united to one another as a family, living in love, bearing with one another as the Father intended from the beginning. In the garden of Eden they were given such gifts, they were told to obey.
I want love. I will reward you with funds when you operate in love. You must grow to be likened to the family the Father wishes.
It is in your prayer you will connect in your hearts in love. Through this power in your prayer as you are united as a body in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass great good will be accomplished. You must plead to the Father in the name of Jesus, in the Holy Spirit with all the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory through the powerful intercession of the Virgin Mary in union with Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. You plead as a body in love.
The connection is in the hearts. I reference a message of June 19, 1996. You operate in your hearts, not just to get the job done. You operate to do the will of God.
Every person has a free will. It is the desire of the Father that men act freely in love, doing all with the desire to want only to please the Divine Master, to love Him and serve Him.
What good does it do you to do a lot of work you think is important if it is not His desire for you to do it?
I tell you this, God wants peace on this earth. I tell you this, the Father looks down and He wants souls operating in love. Force is not love.
In the Reign of the Sacred Heart all men will give themselves willingly in love serving God. They will live every moment with their whole desire being to serve God willingly.
There is such power and energy in the actions of one who serves willingly. There are all different ways of performing a task. If the desire within the individual is to serve God and all his energy to perform it is willed through love, the task is accomplished exactly as God wishes. Many do tasks unwillingly, they hold a grudge while they do it and later they explode with bitterness and anger and cause everyone so much grief.
What do you say of a mother who cooks and cleans and builds up hatred and bitterness as she serves? What do you say of the man who goes to work to earn money for the family, but the whole time is angry because he feels he is being used, saying all should "fend" for themselves. You teach your children to serve and take their fair share of the responsibilities. In the world today, some children think they should be served.
You must operate as the Father wills. If all were living according to the Father's will in one mind and one heart, if all performed their duties in love to please God and serve Him and help their brothers, you would be living in peace on the earth.
You are divided because some do the Father's will, some do not. In many churches, families, schools, institutions, etc., there are those trying to live by God's will, those living by their own will. Some institutions are operating where everyone tries to do his own will. There is disconnection when people do their own will.
Jesus, the cause of dissensionMatthew 10:34-36
Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth: it is not peace I have come to bring, but a sword. For I have come to set son against father, daughter against mother, daughter-in-law against mother-in-law; a person's enemies will be the members of his own household.

December 21, 1998 Second Message
Put Your Prayer Requests beneath the Feet of Jesus
Jesus: I wish people to give Me their burdens. When they come to Florida, I wish them to leave their burdens and cares beneath My cross and pray for healing. A sign beneath the cross should say: "Give your burdens and your cares to Me. Pray for grace. Leave your burdens and cares beneath My cross."
The prayer basket should be placed in the vicinity beneath the cross.
A small sign on the prayer request basket can say: "FOR YOUR PRAYER INTENTIONS".
People can send in their prayer requests on cards and request they be put beneath the feet of Jesus.
All prayers in the basket will be prayed for at the daily prayer meeting and by many Shepherds of Christ apostles at prayer meetings and hourly prayers.
I love you so much, I am Jesus, give your burden to Me. This prayer basket can be waterproofed and covered. Other baskets can be added if you so desire.
Send to Shepherds of Christ Ministries, 21649 US 19 N Clearwater, Florida 33765. On the card or envelope write, "Prayers beneath the feet of Jesus."

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."
