About Blue Book 11 - Month of the Sacred Heart
R. The Christian life essentially consists in God's
God gives to man a sharing in His life
And if man remains in the state of
Blue Book 11 is about how God wants
At the beginning of Blue Book 11 I had
Then I had the 3 great visions –
The first vision was at the end of Blue Book 10
From Blue Book 10 March 26, 1996 The First of 3 Great Visions Very carefully discerned by Fr. Carter R. I came to All Saints Church before a beautiful
Monstrance of gold that contained Our beloved Savior. He was adorned in
light, the altar beneath shone with the brightest light and the cross
behind was entirely silhouetted with the same celestial light. I was
overwhelmed with the presence of God and cried deeply from the awe of it
all. To be so aware of the Almighty God truly
present in His splendor and glory—to know the presence of God, to see
the glistening of the gold and the light and reflection of the cross
behind Him—my beauteous love—words do not exist to describe the rapture
of a heavenly embrace! I cry because of the immense awe within my being
to know Him. God truly present in His majesty and glory and oh, God, I
behold the presence of a heavenly court. You opened wide the heavens and
lifted up the veil and I knew You in Your splendor and glory. I behold
God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life." He is
the Almighty God. He shows us the celestial lights with which He will
light this earth. Many must surrender their hearts to His Heart and
Mary's heart. It is in surrendering, the Spirit will move in the hearts
of men and the light of God will shine on the darkened earth. Not with a
light that you comprehend, but a light that is divinely granted—a light
beyond all lights, a vision beyond all visions. It takes the surrender
of minds and hearts to God. The Spirit cannot move in us when we are in
control. Surrender and give Him our heart and He will make us fishers of
men. We are His apostles in the Shepherds of Christ
Movement. He is sending us out into the world to light the hearts with
His burning love. We are chosen by Him and He is giving us abundant
graces to grow in our union with Him. He will light this world with His
burning love. Our hearts must be open. We must surrender and let go and
reach beyond the senses, reach with our hearts. Pray for faith, pray for
the vision of God. Note: I cried all through this writing, having
the presence of God and being in great ecstasy to behold Him. May God
touch your heart and may His Spirit move within you. May you be filled
with the grace of God to surrender and let Him accomplish a great work
within you. And I was filled on high with His miraculous
light and He reached down and spoke within me. I was filled as never
before and knew the presence of God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Note: As I finished, the bells at All
Saints Church rang at 9:00 A.M. As I began to experience the immense
splendor, the bells of 8:00 rang. Words do not express anything that I
saw or experienced or know from this ecstasy. This was the greatest and
the first of three visions, which defined clearly to me our role in the
Shepherds of Christ Movement. Jesus defines clearly the role of Fr.
Carter in this great mission given to him by the Father. 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. end of excerpt
R. The other two visions were
From Blue Book 11 R. Saturday (April 6, 1996, Holy Saturday) I
saw the whole wall adorned in the brightest light, St. Joseph was
surrounded in this thick light, like comes from a fire, like a
celestial mirror. I don't know how to describe it, it is as a mirror
with light in it, but no light like our human eyes have seen. I
looked at St. Joseph and he was pushing the Child Jesus out at us,
the Baby coming out glistening in light. The statue of the
resurrected Lord was alive. All the flowers were topped with this
light. This is how it was and is now at All Saints Church. It is as
if heaven has poured its light on the earth and it tops the flowers.
All distinct lines are gone. In their place is light. So all I look
at has a splendor.
R. The other was April 9, 1996
From Blue Book 11 April 9, 1996 Lights Dropping on the Flowers R. I went to All Saints Church - saw
with eyes unveiled- such an aura
of celestial light. I went to Communion, had the presence of God, wanted
to cry so hard from the awe of it all. I was not feeling good and He
wrapped me as only He can do in His heavenly embrace. My soul sang out
and the vision began. My eyes now are still seeing with this effect. He,
as it were, lifts up the hard, defined lines and I see with a celestial
aura. This is what I see when I see a vision.
The rocks in the grotto Mary has appeared in glisten and they are
sparkling. LINES are not defined, instead they are adorned in light.
Today the vision started as the Eucharist was exposed. I knew it was
coming. I had this immense presence. Then the lines began to disappear and became smudged
with light. It is the most glorious occurrence to be in the vision. I can talk and
tell someone what I am seeing, but I don't want to, I just want to rest in the celestial
occurrence and realize the presence of God. He lifts the veil and I see with eyes unveiled. This is what Mary said
from the Lady of Grace statue at the Holy Spirit Center before all this started. She said
there would be miracles around the Eucharist. I didn't think she meant I would experience
these. When I saw her 3 times, she had this same light around her. The last
time, I think it lasted an hour (March 10). She was beyond description. March 17 may be
when she told me about the Eucharist. I must check my notes.
Then I saw again the celestial lights
of heaven. It was as though light was spilled from heaven and landed on the
flowers and the corners of everything. The Eucharist took on an immense
warmth and I knew God truly present in this room. I saw with eyes unveiled in my soul and
in the room. The room had a celestial aura, it no longer looked defined and
clear. It was bathed in a gentle, celestial film and all I saw I wanted to
tell to those around me. But I was so caught in His embrace that my mouth
did not want to move. Grace is being spilled on the earth. I
have seen this celestial light come upon the altar of sacrifice, the
monstrance and the cross. The vision on March 26 (1996) I will never forget
as long as I live. The light is so thick and so intense as if the heavens
open in these cracks of light and there is a depth far beyond that which any
mind can envision. The sky opened up and it rained down
its grace. It opens when hearts are one in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
R. I also had intellectual visions –
On this vision I knew how all of our

His Heart –
R. Man rejected this self-communication
of God, in original sin.
Yet God's desire to give Himself
to man was not withdrawn.
He determined to save man from
his sinfulness and thereafter
the Divine communication centered
around the promised Redeemer.
Salvation history preceding the advent
of this Redeemer became a preparation
for the Redeemer's coming.
From the time of His coming, salvation
history was and is the establishment
and continuation of His redemptive
work.
From Fr. Carter, he says:
In the age prior to the coming of Christ, salvation history was rooted in the Mosaic period. At the heart of this Mosaic era was the great salvific event of the exodus (Ex 15:1-18). Through this event Yahweh led the Israelites out of Egyptian slavery and under Moses formed them into His People. The history of the Jewish people previous to this exodus event was merely a preparation for this central happening. Thus Israel in recalling its ancient traditions could see that Yahweh's covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob was a preparation for the great covenant definitively established through Moses on Mount Sinai.
God, then, within the framework of salvation history has determined to communicate Himself according to a covenant. What is covenant? In reference to salvation history it is a mutual life relationship in love between God and His People, and among the People themselves. God on His part communicates His own life through grace, and man in return gives himself to God and his fellowman in loving service. There are various laws governing the multiple aspects of this life-relationship. There is a formal worship with its determined ritual. Yet everything centers around the essence of covenant, the life relationship.
From Response in Christ by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J. - Chapter 1
As mentioned, the Mosaic covenant dominated the Old Testament period. At the heart of the formation of this covenant there was a transition process involved as the Jews were led forth from Egyptian slavery to freedom under the leadership of Moses. The Egyptians had finally consented to this departure of the Jews under the pressure of the last of the plagues inflicted upon them. Under this plague the Egyptians' first-born were slain. The Jews escaped this deathblow of Yahweh by marking their doorposts with the blood of the paschal lamb: ". . . I will go through the land of Egypt and strike down all the first-born in the land of Egypt, man and beast alike, and I shall deal out punishment to all the gods of Egypt, I am Yahweh! The blood shall serve to mark the houses that you live in. When I see the blood I will pass over you and you shall escape the destroying plague when I strike the land of Egypt." (Ex 12:12-13).
As the Jewish people escaped from Egyptian bondage they experienced a transition which was essentially religious in nature. This transition was from a less perfect to a more perfect type of existence, for in being released from slavery they were gradually formed into Yahweh's People. The definitive event of this formation occurred on Mount Sinai. Here the covenant between Yahweh and His People was sealed with sacrificial blood. Moses sprinkled with blood both the altar, representing Yahweh, and the Jewish people. Since blood signified life for the Jews, such an action had deep meaning for them. It symbolized the sealing of the covenant, the establishment of a new life-relationship between Yahweh and themselves.
2. Life in the New Covenant
This Mosaic covenant prefigured the covenant which was to be established in Christ. Yahweh had given himself to the Jews in a special way. He was their God and they were His People. This life relationship was highly imperfect, however, if compared to that instituted by Christ. The covenant life between God and man established by the Incarnate Word is of the most intimate nature. We see this if we consider the new covenant as being contained in a perfect way in Christ Himself. He is radically the new covenant.1 Covenant, remember, has various dimensions of love. Out of love God shares His life with man, and man in community responds in love by giving himself to God and relating in love with his neighbor. In Christ we perceive these relationships achieved in the most perfect manner possible. First of all, Christ in His humanity receives the divinity's gift of self in the highest degree – to such a high degree, in fact, that we have the hypostatic union as a result. In other words, the human nature of Christ is recipient of God's self-communication in such a perfect manner that it does not exist by reason of its own personal act of existence, but rather by the divine existence of the Word, the second person of the Trinity.
Christ as man – in the name of all men, for all men – perfectly receives God's communication of Himself in grace. This is the first movement of covenant life, downward from God to man. In the second movement of covenant, man's response, we again see Christ as central. As man, Christ makes the perfect response to God for all men. This response of Christ includes both His love for His Father and His relationship in love with men. His entire life was itself this perfect response. His life, submerged in a constant, loving conformity to His Father's will, was and is the perfect incarnate response which man is called upon to make to his covenant God.
The response which Christ made was centered in His death and Resurrection. These two events contained the whole of Christ's life and are intimately united. Everything which Christ did previous to Calvary was a preparation for Calvary and consequently shared its redemptive value. The Resurrection was in one way or another the completion of the work of Calvary. Since Christ's perfect response to the Father culminated in His death-resurrection, it is evident that Christ's life involved a transition just as did the life of the Jewish people in the old covenant. This transition of the Israelites was manifested in the exodus from Egypt. In fact, Christ's transition in death-resurrection was a fulfillment of the Jewish exodus; and just as the transition of the Jews marked a passage from a lower to a higher type of existence, so did Christ's transition or passover have this characteristic.
What was Christ's transition? Before Christ experienced death, He was limited by the sinfulness of the world into which He had immersed Himself in His Incarnation. He loved men, and He loved to be in their midst, and in the midst of their world. But He did suffer from the sinfulness of this world. Sinless though He Himself was, He was in certain ways affected and limited by sin. Indeed, sin destroyed Christ in his mortal existence. This shows us the degree to which Christ was limited by or "hemmed in" by the world's sinfulness. But through the passageway of His death, Christ passed beyond the limitations He had experienced in His mortal life. He conquered sin, and He rose into a more perfect type of life, that of the Resurrection. In such a life He could no longer suffer, He could no longer be "limited" by the sinful aspect of the world.
There is another similarity between the Jewish transition or exodus and the transition involved in Christ's death-resurrection. We saw the part that sacrificial blood contributed to the passover or transition of the Jewish people in two instances. The blood of the paschal lamb freed the Jewish homes from the deathblow of Yahweh immediately before their departure from Egypt, and ultimately it was sacrificial blood which sealed the Mosaic covenant upon Mount Sinai.
Sacrificial blood was also essential in Christ's passover or transition. It was through the shedding of His blood that He passed through death to Resurrection. It was thus His blood which made the transition possible and which sealed the new covenant. This new covenant, supplanting the old, is the new life relationship between God and His People, and the People themselves. Christ, in achieving new life through death-resurrection, gained it not only for Himself but for all His members.
The Christian, then, shares in the life of Christ's Resurrection. But if he participates in the Resurrection of Christ he must also share in Christ's death, since death is the way to Resurrection. St. Paul tells us: "We are dead to sin, so how can we continue to live in it? You have been taught that when we were baptised in Christ Jesus we were baptised in his death; in other words, when we were baptised we went into the tomb with him and joined him in death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the Father's glory, we too might live a new life." (Rm 6:2-4).
Through Baptism therefore the Christian is incorporated into Christ's death-resurrection. Baptism pledges the Christian to die to sin and ideally to all that is not in accordance with God's will, even though sin is not involved. Baptism also pledges the Christian to live vitally his new life in Christ, his share in Christ's Resurrection. As he is incorporated into Christ through baptism, the Christian is also made a member of the Church. Awareness of this simultaneous incorporation into both Christ and the Church emphasizes for the Christian the fact that his life of holiness in Christ is to be lived out in community. In other words, the Christian lives in Christ within the People of God, within the Church. This stress of contemporary spirituality upon the communal aspect of Christian holiness is firmly rooted in God's revealed truth. Throughout salvation history God has lovingly communicated Himself to man within the covenant framework with its communal dimension. He has also asked for man's response in love within this same covenant framework.
The Church in union with Christ is the new covenant. Since Christ is the Head of His Church, it follows that the Church with her members must live out the covenant life according to the structure which Christ gives her. The Church has no life, no pattern of life, except that which Christ gives her. This basic pattern or structure is death-resurrection. Christ established the Church by His paschal mystery, His death-resurrection. In so establishing the Church by such an event, Christ also determined how the Church essentially lives out her covenant life down through the ages – through death and Resurrection.
The Church, then, continues Christ's death-resurrection. She consequently continues the entire mystery of Christ, since Christ's entire life is contained in His passover event.2 We see therefore why the Church can be referred to as the continuation of the redemptive Incarnation. Indeed the Church is Christ, the mystical Christ. Because she is the earthly continuation of Christ, the Church has everything within her structure needed to be the source of salvation and sanctification for men of all times. For instance, in reference to the presently much-discussed theme of the Church's relevancy to modern man, we know from theological reflection that the Church has this relevancy radically structured within her very existence. This is simply an application of the reality that the Church actually does prolong the mission of the Incarnate Word; since Christ was relevant to His age, the Church has the capacity to be relevant to all ages.
What do we mean by saying Christ was relevant to His age? Christ revealed the Father and communicated the Father's life to men by adapting Himself in a fundamental way to the life situation which existed at that particular time in Jewish history. Since Christ through His humanity adapted His message to the people of His times, so the Church must use her innate capacity to be relevant for the men of this or that age. She must in a sense be constantly reincarnating Christ, for she is the only visible Christ which this world now has. This reincarnation largely means being relevant.
As the Church is the continuation of Christ, so is the life of the Christian. Just as the Church centers her life in Christ's death-resurrection, so does the life of the Christian. Both Church and Christian then are continually dying with Christ, dying to all which is not of Christ. At the same time Church and Christian are meant to rise more and more with Christ, assimilating ever more perfectly His life through grace. This life of grace is the Church's and the Christian's share in Christ's Resurrection. It is true that this life of grace will have its completion only in eternity. Nevertheless, it does have very real beginnings here in this life.
It is therefore apparent why the Church's life is directed to the liturgy, especially the eucharistic liturgy.3 For it is within the liturgy culminating in the Mass that the death-resurrection of Christ is constantly renewed in a special manner. In the Mass the People of God have the constant opportunity to assimilate the death-resurrection of Christ more and more into their lives. As they do so collectively and individually, the People of God are continuing Christ's life and mission upon earth.
The Christian life, then, is a response to God's gift of Himself. God in love gives us a life of grace, a share in His own divine life. We respond in love by giving ourselves to God and our fellowman, by dynamically living out this life of grace, this Christ-life, in the pattern of death-resurrection. This life of grace is meant to be exercised constantly, as the Christian loves God and man, in Christ, according to the will of the Father. Also, to reiterate, God intends that our life in Christ be lived out in the community of the Church. The Christian life can never solely be an individual's response to his God.
As the Christian lives out this life of grace in community, he is offering Christ a new humanity through which He can reincarnate Himself. It is not only through the Church as a whole that Christ reincarnates Himself, but also, ideally, through each Christian within the Church. Each Christian has a special responsibility and privilege. No one else can offer Christ the unique opportunity of reincarnating Himself as can this or that particular Christian. For each Christian is a unique, created imitation of God never again to be repeated. Each Christian has a unique humanity to offer Christ. To the extent that he fails to do so, to that degree Christ has lost this opportunity to reincarnate Himself through this humanity.
Consequently, the Christian life can be conceived as the Christian permitting Christ to live more and more through his total person. Christian holiness is continual growth in the assimilation of that great thought of St. Paul, ". . . I live now not with my own life but with the life of Christ who lives in me." (Ga 2:20).
There are many ways in which the Christian can permit Christ to live in and through him. Love of the Father and love of all men, of course, are the two great themes which will channel this reincarnation of Christ. These were the great driving forces in Christ's life, and consequently they will be so in the life of the Christian.
If the Christian is to grow in projecting Christ through his Christian personality, he must be aware of the many various ways in which Christ loved His Father, and His will. He must be aware of the various ways in which the Father's will comes to him, and thus he will realize the multiple ways in which he is to love the Father in embracing that will. The Father's will can come to him in joy and happiness or in pain and sorrow; in work or in relaxation; in a life of great obscurity as well as in a life which commands public attention; in frustration or in success. These and many other channels of the Father's will offer the Christian the opportunity to continue this witness of Christ's life: no matter how easy or difficult, the Father's will must be lovingly embraced in all things. This is how Christ radically saved the world. This is how the Church, living according to the same principle, cooperates with Christ in furthering His redemptive work.
Christ's great love and concern for men must also be continually reincarnated through the Christian. Contemporary spirituality makes considerable use of personalism.4 One basic way we can apply personalism to our present theme is as follows: God revealed His love to men in a concrete way, through a Person possessing a tangible, visible human nature. Although this tangible, historical Christ is no longer with us upon earth, the basic plan of the Father continues. To a considerable degree He still continues to give Himself, His love, through tangible, visible human natures. It is through the Christian united with Christ that God continues in many ways to make His love tangible, visible – and human – to mankind.
Through these brief indications we can realize the various and many possibilities through which Christ lives again in the Christian. As the Christian in this manner projects Christ to his contemporary world he relives the total mystery of Christ. All the mysteries of Christ's life will be apparent somehow in such a Christian existence. But as the Christian puts on Christ more and more, death-resurrection will be especially apparent. For the Christian will be more and more going out of a self-centered existence, dying to that which is not really life at all, and increasingly passing over into a greater existence, into the life of Christ Himself. In this manner the Christian continues that transition process of passing from a lower to a higher mode of existence. We have seen this transition process to be at the heart of salvation history. We saw it in the exodus-event of the Jewish people. We saw it in the death-resurrection of Christ. We continue to find it in the life of the Christian as he prolongs the paschal mystery of Christ.
Yes, we live a new life in Christ. Christ, therefore, wants to share everything relating to our existence – sin alone excepted. When He united us to Himself in assuming human nature, He united to Himself all our authentic concerns, values and interest. He is truly a man, and He wants to share with us all our truly human experiences. He and His grace want to touch these experiences. Nothing which is really human is alien to our life in Christ.

Before the Exposed Eucharist
Sorrowful Mysteries
Agony in the Garden
R. Let us put ourselves in the presence of Almighty God. Let us feel that God is truly present and with us, the same Jesus that died on the cross. We meditate on the crucifixion and we think of Jesus and how He died and think of it as so far away, but Jesus, although He no longer walks this earth, is in this room with us at this moment. This same Jesus that, with such love, mounted the cross and gave Himself for love of us, is in this room. The same Jesus that hung for three agonizing hours as the blood poured from His hands and His feet, from His precious wounds, the same Jesus, is right here, if we see the man before us that hung to such a brutal death and gave Himself for us, how our hearts would well up inside with this act of love. Let us address Jesus who is truly present here with this love in our hearts and with our whole heart pray the rosary and unite to Jesus in the Mass.
1. R. Precious, sweet, loving Jesus, we look at You and we see Your beautiful face in the picture before us. You show us Your Heart, crowned with thorns. You are a Person. You are not far off. You are right here and You are calling out to us to realize this because it is in realizing how close You truly are and that You live within us that we will have this close union with You. You are closer to us than any human person. You live within us in a special way when we are baptized and in the state of grace. You are the person that our heart craves. Give us the grace to realize how really close You are to us. Give us the grace to love You.
2. R. Give us the grace in this rosary to know things about You that we would not know if You did not give us this grace, special insights into the mysteries of Your life. Just outpour Your grace. We ask this, Father, in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and the Holy Spirit, to touch us in a very special way in this rosary, to touch our hearts that we will be ever closer to our Almighty, beautiful, wonderful God.
3. R. The sun shines in the sky and we see the magnificent light from the sun and we feel its warmth but the warmth from the Heart of Jesus and the light far exceeds that of any sunlight. The light of Jesus truly present in the tabernacle in this world would blind us far more than any sunshine. Help us to realize Your greatness, O Lord, and the great gifts that You give to us – that You give us Yourself.
4. R. We know some things about God because He gives us His grace and the more we know sometimes we wonder how blind men are. We must pray for the souls of men and not ever think we are better than them. God has given us a great grace to love Him. We do not understand when we see others sometimes. It is all because He has given us this grace. Pray for this grace for all of us to live by the Father's Plan. Think of how Jesus was in the garden and He, in His Divine knowing, knew all things - God knew everything with the vision of God – knowing every event that would happen – knowing every detail in the heart of every man and their sins from all time – knowing all those, in their ignorance and pride, that would boast and Jesus in His Divine Wisdom knew all of these things! Think of how it would be to have the vision of God and to see the people before you so ignorant and so prideful. How Jesus must have suffered for this alone, to be the Almighty God and in His Divine Wisdom to know all things and to see the arrogance of these men.
5. R. Many times Jesus, I hurt inside because I know my sins and the sins of all men and You give me the grace to understand how God is offended by our sins. In this rosary let us help make reparation for our sins and the sins of all men, for we are truly sorry for offending God by our sins this day. We are all God's creatures. We are all members of the human family and look at how we are offending God. We are so sorry and we ask You, in this rosary, dear Father, that united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, we ask You to outpour Your grace and Your mercies on this sinful world.
6. R. Jesus loved us so much that He gave Himself. He saw before Him in the garden an angel that came to comfort Him and the agony was so great in His Heart from what He knew that He sweat blood. This is His Blood that we receive this day in the Holy Eucharist, the same blood that Jesus sweat in the garden.
7. R. Dear Jesus You gave Your precious blood for love of us. You gave the last drop of Your blood and the last beat of Your Heart for love of me – give me the grace to love You with my whole heart, my whole soul and my whole being.
8. Song: A Song from Jesus
9. R. See Jesus in the garden, buckled over in pain. Feel the agony in His Heart, the deep, deep agony, to know all the sins of all men and look into His eyes and comfort Him in this agony with your immense love of Him and say to Jesus: Jesus, I love You. I am so sorry for my sins and the sins of all mankind. Let me give You comfort, Jesus, as I see Your sweat fall to the ground, as I see the blood roll down Your forehead. Vividly see this as if you did see it on Jesus' forehead. Would you not look at Jesus with the greatest love and say to Him: Oh, my Jesus, You did this for me and I love You so much! Would you, if you saw this before your eyes, would you not look at Jesus and comfort Him in His agony?
10. Hail Mary
The Scourging at the Pillar
Song: Were You There When They Crucified My Lord
1. R. Life flows from the Father in the Holy Spirit through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through the heart of Mary, to us. Do we feel this life that is flowing to us at this moment as we pray? Do we feel the grace that He is giving to us in this room? Let us feel this life penetrate our soul? Let us feel the grace within us, for He loves us, that He gave Himself and He gives Himself to us today and gives us a sharing in His life.
2. R. Sweet, tender Jesus, I see You there, bound at the pillar. I see You tied. You look so helpless but within that body is the Heart of Jesus, the Heart of endless love. You look like a man tied to the pillar but You are God-made-Man. You are the Almighty God, knowing all things, all powerful, Almighty and You allow the men to come up with their sharp instruments and rip Your flesh because of Your love of me!
3. R. I hear the cracking of the whip that they beat You with and I see the stripes on You and I know within that body is the magnificent Heart of endless love. Divine love, and You did this for me. Give me the grace to love You, You who are all deserving of all my love. It is only when You give me the grace that I can love You with greatest love. I beg You for this grace. I love You so much, Jesus, whipped for my sins at the pillar.
4. Hail Mary
5. Hail Mary6. Song: I Love You Jesus
7. R. My beloved Jesus, I want to love You. Help me in this rosary to love You more and more. Make this a special day in my life that I will unite ever closer to You, that I will identify all of my actions with You, that You will live through me as I love in this world.
8. R. We cannot even fathom the love of the Almighty God. We do not comprehend His might. He is God. We cannot even comprehend a little bit the immensity of His love.
9. Jesus: I come to you with greatest love. I am your God. I died for you. I come to you this day. Open wide your heart, My beloved ones. I am knocking on the door of your heart and it is you that keeps Me from closer union with you. Open your heart. You hold onto so many things that keep us apart. You do not even know how attached you are to so many things. You must pray to die to yourself that I may live in you. The more the seed dies, there is new life. In you I will live more abundantly in you, if you die to yourselves.
Song: Unless a Grain of Wheat
Jesus: My beloved ones, die to yourself, the more you die to yourselves, the more I will live in you.
10. R. And He took them out to the town of Bethany and He raised His arms and He ascended into heaven and He left us behind to carry out His work here. It is in dying to ourselves that He will live in us more and more in this world today, for He no longer walks this earth. Jesus is dwelling in us. Let us pray for the grace that we may die to ourselves that He will live in us and that His grace will flow through us and that many hearts will be touched by Him operating in us, as He dwells in our graced baptized soul.
The Crowning with Thorns
R. Why such a brutal death? Why such a Passion? Why did God come and go through such anguish for us? He came to show us the way and His way is selfless love. God gave Himself, God suffered all of the torture that we would have this sharing in His life. He was beaten, He was bloody, He was crowned with piercing thorns. He spread His arms and surrender His all to His death. He was buried but He rose on the third day that we would have this sharing in His life and go to heaven and have the fullness of life some day.
1. R. He sat and was crowned with thorns, covered with blood and with wounds and they spit on Him. They mocked Him. Let us put ourselves in the place of Jesus. Let us sit and be surrounded by men. Let us sit there with our head crowned with thorns and feel the blood as it rolls down our face and into our eyes and into our ears. Let us hear with our ears what the men said to Him – calling Him a liar, all the ugly things that they called Him and let us realize that the Almighty God, in His Divine knowing, knew all things, but suffered this torture willingly because of His love for us. Let us sit there as Jesus sat and feel our own blood roll down our face and feel the burning wounds all over our body, matted and stuck to His dirty, purple robe. We know what it is like when someone says a few harsh words to us and we take them and do not say anything back. How hard that is, to have someone insult you and say nothing back to them, but Jesus sat there and He took this while many men persecuted Him. Why? He showed us the way, His way is love, always love, but in His actions, in His sitting in silence, He knew the love of God. He was God, the Almighty God and He withstood this. It is in being one in Him that we too will be able to suffer the persecution, the wounding by others, the harsh words and in that when we act as Jesus acts, His light will shine to this world through us. When someone persecutes us and we tolerate this and still respond lovingly we make more of an impression on that person than if we shouted back and tried to make our point. His light, always shining. Through His blood-covered face and His crowned head when He hung from the cross, with a withered body, beaten and torn, His light shone against the darkened sky because the light of God cannot be hidden. He wants to be one in us. He wants to unite in such a way that our hearts love with His love, but we must die to ourselves that He will live in us.
Song: Unless a Grain of Wheat
2. R. What are we holding onto that is keeping us from deeper union with Him? Do we not realize that His way is love, that He taught so much through His example, that we see the world today. Let us pray for the grace that we will always love. Let us pray for the grace that we will be so one in Him that His light will shine through us in this darkened world.
He is calling us to consecration to His Heart and the heart of His Mother. When we consecrate our hearts to Jesus and Mary, when we live in Their Hearts, we will be the lights that shine in the darkened world.
3. R. Jesus and Mary: I see this darkened world and I am but one person. I beg You to help me to be a little light that shines in this world. How bright one little light is against the darkened night. How bright it will shine with His power when we are united in deepest union to His Heart and Mary's heart.
4. R. And they spit on Him and they whipped Him and they pounded into His precious head sharp thorns that hurt so bad, hurt so bad, and how do we act when we hear a few harsh words against us? But He was silent. He came to show us His way - His way is love - His way is always love.
5. R. And His body, silhouetted against the dark sky, was the brightest light that shone in this world.
6. R. Jesus tells us to love as He loved us. Jesus loved us so much that He sat and was spit on. Jesus' head was crowned with thorns, His flesh was torn and He asks us to love as He loved us. It is in uniting all of our actions with Jesus that we will love as He wants us to love. It is in seeing that in our actions that we are helping souls to get to heaven by our acts of love. This is indeed a heroic deed, that everything that we do can help others to get to heaven when Christ is living within us.
7. R. We are the teachers of the God who lives within. Let our hearts be filled with His love and His light.
8. Jesus: They pulled My beard and they pounded on My head. They tore My flesh and they made Me bleed. I sat and I suffered all of this for you. I ask you this day to be a light in the darkness, to always love. I want to live in you and to minister to this hurting world through you. When they persecute you and laugh at you, come to My Heart. It is there you will find refuge from the cold world. I am Jesus and I am so close to you, as close as your breath.
My sweet ones, you do not comprehend – you must pray for vision to see beyond what you see with your eyes, to know with your hearts that I am forever present and with you, that you are never alone. You look with your eyes, you want to see but far greater than what you see with your eyes is to know I dwell in your graced, baptized soul.
9. R. And they walked around Jesus - these angry men. Their hearts filled with such hatred, their hearts so cold and hard – they walked around Jesus and poked at Him and pushed Him and they hated - they hated and they hated and He loved and loved. How His heart suffered for the treatment of those He loved so much!
10. Jesus: My greatest agonies were not the agonies that I suffered to My body but the agonies to My Heart for the rejection and for the hatred of those men I loved so much. I am Jesus and I look at you this day and I see your fervor and your love. I beg you to come closer to Me for it is your love that comforted Me during My bitter Passion. Look into My eyes and tell Me you love Me. I love you, My sweet ones.
The Carrying of the Cross
Song: Only This I Want
1. R. How many times we teach by our actions. It is not only in our words but it is how we live and how we act that we are the teachers of the God that lives within us. Help us to be so one with You, Most precious God, that Your light shines in our eyes and in our every action. It is one thing to talk about holiness but it is another to die to ourselves and to let You truly be one in us, according to the Father's Plan, trying always - always to do His will, in love. I see Jesus shuffle with the cross on His back, humped over in such sufferings and as He falls to the ground and His face hits the earth the cross falls down on His back. They come up to Him and they poke at Him and they kick Him and try to force Him to give up but Jesus, though in such exhaustion He can hardly move, got up and He continued.
Give us the grace to continue always, knowing that the little acts that we perform not always in our speech, but in our actions, are mighty lessons in this world today, that we shall always see ourselves as a teacher, always a reflection of His light, always conducting ourselves the way that He wants us to conduct ourselves and pray for the grace to be so united with Him that we will act as He acts through us.
2. R. How far we have to go to be like Jesus - but it takes sacrifice! I beg Jesus for the grace. I beg for the grace but it is sacrifice – it is sacrifice and it is giving our will to God in love, we have a free will. Sometimes it is so hard to respond in love, so hard when someone is cruel, when we really don't like the way they treat us, when we feel that we have been wronged, but we know that telling them something kind is the way Jesus would want us to act. This is sacrifice!
He shows us the way that He lived, He gave Himself as a sacrifice. It's easy to love when we are filled with grace and someone is nice to us, but it is an act of the will to love when others are not so nice to us. They pounded the thorns into His head and they spat on Him, they tore His flesh and they made Him bleed and He loved those men with the tenderest burning love. He comes and He shows us His way – His way is love, He no longer walks this earth but He lives in us. We are to be like Christ, who dwells in us, be a witness to Him. How are we showing the world in our actions who Christ is? Wear the crucifix, and tell others of our churches. How are our actions?
3. R. And He fell to the ground and His face hit the earth, the crown of thorns pressing deeply into His skull, the pain in His head and His whole body - and He continued. When they poked at Him and forced Him to get up, He went on - His way is love. Let us unite to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Let us see Jesus as He hung on the cross and realize this is love. Love is self-giving. He is calling us to love, to die to ourselves that He can live in this world in us this day. When we fall to the ground and the cross bears deeply on our backs and we want to give up because we feel all alone in this world, where so many have forgotten, God, we look into the eyes of Jesus and we see the weakened body, the face covered with blood. We see Him humped over with wounds all over Him and we look into His eyes and we say to Him, Love is sacrifice. Give us the grace to love as You want us to love in this world today, for we want to help souls get to heaven. The light that shines through may be the seed planted in the hard heart. The love that He wants to give to that person that is so cold in their heart, but if I say no to those people, if I say no to those who really need His love, because that is the hardest one to love, He cannot touch those hearts through me. He wants us to die to ourselves that He can live in us. He no longer walks the earth.
4. Song: Only This I Want
R. Come Holy Spirit, impart to us the gift of wisdom, the gift of understanding. Give to us a wider vision that we may know more and more the mystery of God, that we may know more and more the mystery of His love, that we carry out the life, death and resurrection of Jesus in our lives. Fill us, O Holy Spirit, with the fire of God's love.
5. Jesus: This, My dear ones, is the love that I have for you. Look into My eyes as I carried the cross on My back and see My eyes caked with blood. See the bruises on My head. See My face. Look into My face as Veronica saw My face and gave to Me the towel. Look into My face. This is the love that I have for you and look into the face of those who are hardened in their hearts and see My face when you look into their face for as you love others, you love Me. On that day I will say to you: O, beloved of My Father, come into My Kingdom, for when I was hungry you gave Me to eat, when I was thirsty, you gave Me to you drink, and I was naked and you clothed Me. You, My beloved one, will be with Me forever in heaven in deepest love. I call you today to carry out My life, death and resurrection in your lives, to love when the road is tough for those with the cold hearts are the ones I want to touch so much. It is only when you love that I can touch them through you.
6. Jesus: Unite to My sacrifice.
7. Jesus: Love is giving. Love is an act of the will. I freely gave because I loved you. I ask you this day to freely give your love and when they persecute you know that I am loving them through you. Come to Me and I will fill you with My love. Sacrifice is very hard sometimes but it is then that many hearts are converted through the hardest sacrifice, through the great act of love.
8. R. And He loved us so that He laid down His life for us.
9. R. O, Mother Mary, this is the 5th. The 5th is in honor of the five wounds of Jesus and the five blasphemies against you. Mother Mary, help us to love your Son, Jesus, with greater love, to love Him through your most tender heart. O, Mother Mary, thank you for the gift of the rosary.
10. Hail Mary
The Crucifixion
1. R. The greatest act of love – the Son of God gave Himself for love of us. The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present.
Let us unite all of our actions, all through the day, with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass going on around the world, for grace and mercy is being outpoured in the Mass. Let us realize the magnitude of this offering when united to the Mass. Let us pray to the Father in the Holy Spirit, in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and every action that we perform, a sacrifice of giving ourselves as Christ who gave Himself to His death on the cross. We give ourselves, no matter what it is that we are doing, doing God's will in love. We are helping to bring down great grace – that can help souls to get to heaven. We unite with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, loving as Christ loved. Jesus tells us to love as He loved us and He laid down His life for us. Jesus asks us moment by moment to love, to always love and we are helping souls. We are loving in our every action.
O, Jesus, I see You before me, hanging on the cross, your body so withered and covered with blood, and I see the little deeds that I do all through the day that sometimes seem so useless and so hard, but when I realize that it is the Father's will that I do them and when they are done in love, that they are mighty sacrifices that can help souls get to heaven. How heroic those little deeds seem to be, united with your sacrifice. This is what is important. This is what God wants us to do – to live always - in love.
2. R. The Father will say to us, "Come into My Kingdom."
3. R. Jesus says to love as He loved us. He loved us so much that He gave His life. Moment by moment we join all of our actions as an offering to the Father in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in the Holy Spirit, and all of our actions are a sacrifice that we give that souls will be in heaven someday. The person that I am looking at that has the cold heart is the one He wants to touch. I can say no because love is an act of the will or I can perform that hard sacrifice and love when they are mean. Jesus can touch them through me.
What the world needs now is love, the burning love of the Heart of Jesus. No fire can compare to the love that comes from His heart. When our heart is one with the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the fire of His love will spread across the earth and the sky will be lighted with the fire of God's love. This is the mighty medicine for the sick world and it begins with one candle that shines in the darkness. Let me see myself as one candle and my life as the life that He wants to shine in the darkened world.
4. Jesus: I have called you here this evening to hear this rosary. It is easy to love those who are loving and it is very difficult to love those who are cruel. I want to reach all hearts. You are the teachers of the God who lives within. It is through your example that many hearts will be touched with My love. Come and dwell in My heart and I will fill you with My burning love. I love you, I love you, I love you. To My death, My dear ones, I died for you. Will you love in this world today when it is hard, when you do not want to love, when you want to walk away, when you want to go and be by yourself and you know that the Father would want you to spend that time in loving another? Will you touch that heart with My love? I have called you as My special soldiers of love. You will light up the darkness with the fire of My love that is burning within you? Do not worry. Do not fret. Be calm. I am guarding your every step. The most important thing that you do this day is to do the Father's will, in love. Love is giving of self. Love many times is hard.
5. R. And I see Him, His beautiful body, silhouetted against the darkened sky, and His light shines. His body is covered with blood and withered, but the light that comes forth from the Almighty God is a light far beyond all comprehension. The light that I saw on that Tuesday from the Eucharist against the cross and across the altar of sacrifice. This is what we are given, we are given this grace to be so close to Him. To be in this room with Him, the Almighty God, for Jesus to talk to us of His great love. We are given the Eucharist to be so one with Him in Communion, to have God enter our body and unite with us. Let us thank God for this great gift and ask Him for the grace to unite ever deeper with Him that He will live in us as we live in this world today, that we will unite in every moment to this sacrifice, that we will help in our acts of love, that we will help souls to get to heaven, for He said to me on March 1: "souls are shriveling in hell."
We see the world and we see the green grass and the blue sky and we see so much with our eyes. We see the sin and all the suffering in this world and we know that many souls are going to be damned forever. We need to give our lives to Him, to always love, to unite with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and to offer everything we do all day to the Father for we are sinful people. Jesus gave His blood that souls could be saved and we are helping the souls by our love, given especially when it hurts.
6. R. What a heroic act to help someone to get to heaven! Dear Jesus, come and live in me that I may be as the Father wants me to be in this world and help me to love as You want me to love. I know for all eternity that I can be joined in such celestial bliss in this presence of God. I love You, Jesus. I look at You hanging on the cross and I look at You right before You die and I look at You and say, God, I love You! I want to die to myself that You will live in me.
Song: Unless a Grain of Wheat
R. And He rose on the third day and came to give us life that we will have it to the full. He no longer walks the earth but He lives in us.
7. Jesus: You are My lights that I am sending into the darkness to shine. Come and dwell in My Heart and I will fill you with My burning love. I am Jesus and I am truly present with you and in this room. I am a person and I am longing for your love. Minute by minute, second by second, I am with you. I want you to talk to Me and tell Me all the cares in your heart. I want you to rely on Me always, My sweet ones. I am the Almighty God. I give to you, My Divine love. I love you, I love you, I love you. I will fill you with such love as you cannot imagine, but you must surrender and let go. You are the one that keeps Me from uniting with you. You must let go. You must die to yourselves and you will have peace and love in your heart.
8. R. Life flows from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through the heart of Mary and into our hearts. Let us dwell in the Hearts of Mary and Jesus that we may be bathed in such love. It is there that we will find refuge, It is there that we will know love, that we will be able to love as He calls us to love, for God is love, His way is love. To be one in Him is to love.
Jesus: I call you, My dear ones, to come to My Heart, to surrender and to give your all to Me. I spread My arms, I held not back, I gave My all for love of you. I want to be with you forever and ever in heaven. Surrender and help My poor, poor souls this day with your acts of love. Many souls will be condemned forever to the fires of hell for their mortal sins and their willfulness and for their pride, for their hatred. Will you love? Will you love those cold hearts? I sacrificed, I gave Myself on the cross. You will touch the hearts with your love. Pray to the Holy Spirit to fill you with the fire of God's love. You must dwell in Our Hearts. Consecrate your hearts to Our Hearts. It is your acts of love that comforted Me during My bitter Passion. I want the souls to come to Me. I gave My life for each soul. How you act this day will make a difference in the lives of many souls. This world will be lighted with the fire of God's love but it must be burning inside of you. You must die to yourselves that I can live in you. I am Jesus. I have spoken. Love is sacrifice. I gave Myself for you, but the benefits of this love in your heart is peace and joy. Surrender. I am with you at every second. I love you with the deepest love.

reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal
concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a
sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this
day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We
believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as
priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and
Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our
congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand.

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A — The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 | ||

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C — In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |
Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B — At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |
