Messenger: Hide me
God in the hidden wound of
Your side.
Wash me with Your precious Blood.
Fill my troubled heart with Your
love.
May my soul ever grow in deeper
union with Thee.
As I work in the direction You have
asked me to work in where
we live as one body united in
Your truth,
May our hearts be united in love
that goes beyond the division which
we may experience as satan tries to
divide us.
Jesus speaks: For child, My love for
thee is an endless
furnace of love - for thee - My precious
child -
from all I have called you to share
such intimate knowledge of My
Heart not given to the greatest saints -
My hand is upon you, that in all
your efforts to spread My letters
of love - in the turmoil and pain -
you will know solace for
you know for why you act - it is to lead
souls to Me that they will be saved -
Souls - that they will share the heavenly
treasure of life eternal I wish to
give them.
Oh that they would know the solace you
know from sharing the secrets of
My Heart.
My Heart beats with love for the men
that may study Me and yet not
love Me at all.
I am your bridegroom - what bridegroom
would desire a bride of words -
he desires a bride filled with
love and faithfulness -
a bride that speaks from her heart,
acts from her heart and gives
with a heart of love to her beloved.
As you grow more and surrender more,
you identify with Me in this mission
to reach the souls and tell them
of My undaunted love.
To many who have died and thought they
knew God, they may have never had
a loving relationship with Me
as their Spouse.
Oh let Me tell you a story - a
poor bagger worked all his life
in love to provide a home for his
family.
When he was elderly and the children
gone, the winds came and tore his little
humble home from the ground and
he was left homeless.
His years of toiling and giving love
to his family were never lost. He had
lost his home, he was old then, he did
not have insurance etc, he was a simple
man that lived simply and not according
to the men who could have helped him
be secured against such things. He
used his hands and his heart.
The insurance people were never
called. Some may come to criticize his
work, but when the chips were down -
I saw the gentle ways of the heart
of the man and the love he gave to
his children, now passed on to the
grandchildren and their children.
Do you measure with a ruler
the depth of My Heart too? No ruler
could ever measure My Heart of
endless love.
The burning furnace of My Heart
you saw was the symbol I used
to show you My love - but you cannot
put My love in a thimble or in a big
yacht - My love is an endless vat of
fire that cannot be contained and measured.
I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
I am your God. I give you Myself in
the Eucharist -
I give you love -
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE,
I am LOVE -
I am your God - I want a relationship
with you.
I want oneness amongst My people.
I want people that love and worship
Me and treat Me with kindness.
A man married a woman and he ignored
her - he read her books at night
about things he was interested in -
He never said a personal word to her
about himself or told her he
loved her. I am your Spouse, I want
your love. I want a relationship -
I want heartfelt love. I am Jesus,
I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I
am treated so very cold and I am
a vat of endless love on fire for love
of you.
Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, life.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
It is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Messenger: Dear God, it is for You I live.
One thing Mary made so clear to me
every day is how souls of this earth
were dropping into hell - like rain
she said.
This disturbs me when I love them
so much and then a soul going to hell
will never be with God for all eternity.
Heaven and hell are real.
Excerpt from the Spirituality of Fatima
by Father Carter, S.J.
"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)

Mary speaks:
My child, on this day of my
Immaculate Heart I write to the
world.
I am your Mother, your spiritual
mother. If you want to please your
God - you will show me love -
Mary: "My beloved priest-son, how I love to enfold you in my arms as my little child! Enfolded in my arms in my maternal embrace, I press you against my Immaculate Heart. I draw you within my Heart. There, through my maternal intercession, I clothe you with Jesus' graces. As you dwell in my Heart, I place you ever more deeply within Jesus' Heart and there the Holy Spirit fashions you increasingly in the image of my Son. As you grow in the likeness of Jesus, He takes you ever closer to the Father.
"Thus, as you grow in the sense of your helplessness without God, the stronger you become in Jesus. Childlike thus becomes strength. The smaller you become in living out spiritual childhood, the taller you stand beside Jesus. Weakness becomes strength, your sense of helplessness becomes spiritual maturity!
"Tell all my children about the wonders of spiritual childhood! Tell them to come to me and I will school them in its ways. How I love all my children! Oh, how I love to exercise my motherhood toward them all!"
Reflection: In the Gospel, Jesus speaks emphatically to us about spiritual childhood: "At this time the disciples came to Jesus and said, 'Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?' So he called a little child to him and set the child in front of them. Then he said, 'I tell you solemnly, unless you change and become like little children you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. And so, the one who makes himself as little as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven'" (Matthew 18:1-4).

Mary speaks: I am a Mother that
loves my children -
Your Father wants children that model
their lives after me.
Luke 1: 46-55
The Magnificat
And Mary said:
My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
from their thrones
and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
of Israel his servant,
mindful of his faithful love
—according to the promise
he made to our ancestors—
of his mercy to Abraham
and to his descendants for ever.

Mary speaks: I am the handmaid of the Lord.
I sing the song your Father wants
to hear.
Many today do not sing to their Father
or show Him love.
You were created to know, love and
serve God.
God is love.
I am the Immaculate one.
You were called to be pure.
Purity is a desire of your heart.
Do you serve God for your glory
or for your own vain glory.
Jesus speaks: My child your love is in Me.
You serve Me to spread My love to
the world.
You serve Me.
