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.

Glorious Mysteries

R. Let us meditate in this rosary, on His Divine Life as in the picture that we turn to now. His life flows from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through the heart of Mary into us and we act as a channel of this life to one another, to those we touch. As we live in this world, He lives in us.

The Resurrection

1. R. Jesus no longer walks the earth. Jesus is truly present this day in the Eucharist, but He no longer walks the earth. He lives in us and we carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. It is in baptism that we are commissioned to carry out this life, death and resurrection in our lives. It is in Baptism that we are commissioned to carry out this life, death and resurrection in our lives as we live in this world today. He lives in us. He touches those that we touch with His love when we are open to the working of the Spirit within us and are loving. Let us pray in this rosary that our hearts will be open, that we will know His presence in us, that we will allow Him to operate in us, reach to those He wants to touch, that we may be more one in Him, that we will act as a channel of His life to one another. God loves others through us.

2, R. See Jesus as He hung on the cross. He asks us to love each other as He loved us and we say to ourselves, Lord, You died on the cross for others. What do You want of me? Jesus wants us to die to ourselves that our every act is an act as He showed us how to love. Jesus loved all men. Jesus loved us so much that He gave His life for us. Jesus' every action was an action of love for Jesus is love. Jesus wants us to unite with all the Masses going on around the world. Love is giving in all of our actions. Jesus wants us to love, not just love those who are easy to love, but to always love so that He may touch those who are very difficult to love through us. We look at Jesus on the cross and we see that He loved those who crucified Him. Jesus asks us, at every moment, to see Him in His act of self-giving love on the cross and when it is difficult to love, to see how He loved.

3. R. Jesus came and Jesus gave Himself. Jesus is our Savior. Today when we love selflessly when we do God's will we can help the souls Jesus died for. On March 1st, Jesus told me that I would experience what it was like to know somewhat of the sufferings of the souls in Purgatory and Hell and He said that souls were shriveling in hell. Jesus is calling us to love for souls are dropping into hell like rain, Mary says. Jesus wants to live in us and operate through us. It is a heroic deed when we love selflessly, when we love those who are cruel to us for we are being loving as Jesus loved. We want souls to go to heaven. Jesus no longer walks this earth and He lives in this world in us. He loves in this world through us. He calls us to this selfless love.

4. R. Jesus died on the cross and His attackers thought that they had won but on the third day He rose victorious. Jesus showed us that death has no power over Him. When we love selflessly as He calls us to love, we die to ourselves. He lives in us and our hearts are filled with such joy for to love is to be filled with joy.

5. R. Mary and Jesus loved selflessly. We must try to help souls to get to heaven by living holy lives and to love selflessly. Envision at this moment how many people who are dying will lose their souls because of their sins and how our loving and begging God for mercy can help to bring down grace for the souls of this earth, the Church and the world. This is what God wants of us. Jesus died on the cross. He gave His life for all the souls. Many this day are throwing the graces away that Jesus suffered so much for and Jesus paid a big price for us. Jesus no longer walks this earth but He lives in us and we carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives.

6. Jesus: I come to you to give you life, I want you to have the fullness of grace in heaven. Your hearts will be quieted and you will feel immense peace within you. Come to Me and give Me your heart. I love you with the deepest love. I am longing to bathe you in My love.

7. R. How tenderly our beloved Savior loves us. We see Him before us, crucified, and we know truly that the Almighty God loved us so much that He came to this earth and took on a human body and He gave Himself because He loves us. Jesus is calling us today to give ourselves in love to our beloved brothers for He lives in this world in us. Many souls will be condemned forever and ever to the fires of hell because of their sinful lives. It is our acts of selfless love that can help the world to know Jesus. What a great honor that God gives to us the gift of sharing in His life in baptism.

8. R. Mary Magdalene and some of the others came to the tomb with some spices that they had prepared for Jesus and  they saw that the stone had been rolled back and they were frightened. They did not comprehend the words that Jesus spoke for they were blind and they did not understand. Jesus has called us here. Jesus is giving us great graces to understand and to comprehend. He is lifting the veil and letting us see with eyes unveiled many insights into the mystery of God's love. Jesus has called us soldiers of His love, to go into a world that is dark and cold and to be the light, to be the warmth for the hearts that have forgotten God.

9. R. And Jesus said to Peter: (Song: Do you love Me?)

R. This world is cold and it is dark and many souls are hungry for the love of God. God has given to us great graces to know His love and He is calling us to go out and to feed His lambs with this love.

10. Hail Mary

 

The Ascension

R. We see with such limited vision until He gives us His grace and then we can see more with a wider vision, the vision of God, through our heavenly Father's eyes. Pray for faith. God is the ultimate mystery and we must pray for grace for greater insight into the hidden mysteries.

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.

R. Our knowing and loving capacity is elevated in baptism. Our human nature is elevated in baptism.

1. R. The apostles walked with Jesus by their side. Jesus walked. Jesus taught them and He talked to them.  

John 2: 19-22

Jesus answered, ‘Destroy this Temple, and in three days I will raise it up.’ The Jews replied, ‘It has taken forty-six years to build this Temple: are you going to raise it up again in three days?’ But he was speaking of the Temple that was his body, and when Jesus rose from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the scripture and what he had said.

R. The apostles were filled with fear. Peter denied Jesus. We cannot understand because we think how they were blind, but Jesus gives us Himself in the Holy Eucharist and unites with us in such oneness and we are so blind, many times, because we do not open our hearts. Let us pray in this rosary to receive the grace to open our hearts that we may know more of the tender and sweet love of our beloved Jesus.

2. R. We see with our human eyes but if He lifts the veil we see the strands of light. We see this aura of light. We do not comprehend, we see every detail and we strive more and more to understand with our human minds. We must surrender and let go that He can fill us with His grace, that we will understand more as He gives us His grace, so that we will have a wider vision and comprehend some of the plan of the Almighty God.

3. R. The apostles did not understand that Jesus rose from the dead. Thomas wanted to put his hands into Jesus' hands and feet to be sure. Jesus tells us to pray for faith, He says that, with faith we can move mountains. Jesus says: Pray for faith.

4. Jesus said to Thomas:  John 20: 29

    You believe because you can see me. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe.

5. R. God lives in our graced baptized soul. Father, Son and Holy Spirit live in us. We must surrender and let God lead us in our pursuit of happiness. God is a mystery.

6. John 16: 7-8

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:
 

R. The apostles were filled with fear. Jesus took them out of the town near Bethany and He raised His arms, He ascended into heaven.

7. R. We do not comprehend a dead man coming back from the dead and rising from the tomb, coming all glistening in white and with glorified wounds - we do not comprehend the Almighty God ascending into heaven. We think with our human minds. We must beg for grace to comprehend more and more with the vision of God.

8. R. We see this vast universe and we know that the Almighty God runs this universe. Let us pray that God fills us with His grace that we will have more and more His vision. Where we are blind, let us see. Where we are deaf, let us hear. Let us experience the presence of the Almighty God within our hearts that we will know more and more His precious love for us.

9. R. The Father so loved this world that He sent His only Begotten Son that we would be saved and He calls us in baptism to spread the Good News. He calls us in the Shepherds of Christ to follow our vocation, to carry out this mission in the Shepherds of Christ in our lives this day. In all of our acts of love we are helping the souls to know God and know His love. Let us pray to love selflessly and in each act of love unite ourselves with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass going on around the world.

10. Hail Mary

 

The Descent of the Holy Spirit

R. The apostles were afraid and they locked themselves in the upper room and there was a gigantic like wind and there appeared over their heads parted tongues of fire as the Holy Spirit descended upon them and they were transformed from fear to fearlessness.

1. R. I have seen the light. I have seen the light as it pours forth from the Eucharist - in the light that lines the cross on the altar. I have seen the light and the light is beyond all human comprehension, the light of the Almighty God! We see with our human eyes and we do not realize the immensity of the light of God, of the fact that the Almighty God is present and truly with us this day, that He ascended into heaven but He is truly present in the Eucharist. God lives in the graced baptized soul in a special way. I hear Him call out, "I am alive, I am alive, I am alive". He wants to be alive in us but He can only live in us if we are holy and surrender in love to God.

Jesus: I call out to you, My beloved ones, to surrender, surrender to Me and give Me your heart for I will fill your heart with the deepest love and you will know joy as you have never experienced joy. I am Jesus and I am with you in a very special way. I love you with a most burning love. I love you with a Heart that is on fire for love of you. You cannot even comprehend how much I love you. My sweet ones, surrender and let Me come to you in a special way. I am alive. I am alive. I am alive and I live in this world in you. How will I touch the hardened hearts if you say no to My calling?

    I give to you great graces that you will know My love and that you will be filled with this love and march forward as soldiers of love into the darkness. You will fight My battle, not with weapons and swords, but with hearts filled with My burning love. I give to you this light, the light to light your way, the light that will shine from your eyes and from your hearts in the darkness. You are My chosen ones. I call you to march into the darkness and to love those that trample on you and to show them the way to peace and happiness, in love.

2. R. We do not even comprehend minutely the power of the Almighty God. We look at the sun and see its blinding light and we stay as if in a box for we do not see with this vision of God, but God is there and He is behind the light of the sun and the moon and the stars. It is God that keeps this earth in order, that breathes life into the baby, that gives us our breath and our heartbeat and we walk around so arrogant as if we are in control.

He (Jesus) says tenderly – "Surrender and I will give you all that you need. I am Jesus, the Almighty God - all powerful and Almighty and I love you so that I gave My life for you."

3. R. The Holy Spirit descended upon them and they were transformed from fear to fearlessness. Let us pray to the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts, fill us with the fire of God's love, that we too will see the light and will know this light alive inside of us in our hearts.

4. Song: Choose Life

5. R. Do we realize in our lives how fear truly paralyzes us? We think that we are not afraid but do we really trust in God as He wants us to trust in Him? How many times during the day are we paralyzed by fear? The only thing that we truly have to fear is sin. For God is truly present and when we are in the state of grace the Father, Son and Holy Spirit dwell in our graced, baptized soul. The Almighty God loves us so much that He dwells in our hearts. If the sun ceases to shine and the moon falls from the sky, we will know that in our hearts God dwells in our graced baptized soul and is guarding us and we have nothing to fear for He guards our every hair on our head, every second. He is so attentive to us – it is through Him that we breathe.

6. R. The Father looked to the world and He saw that the world was covered with darkness but there were little lights, sparsely sprinkled over the earth. These lights were the hearts of those who have given their hearts to Jesus and Mary and the light began to spread for the fire of God's love is a mighty force, too mighty to be contained. For, when we dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and give Them our hearts, His love is emitted from our being and the earth will be lighted by those whose hearts are filled with the fire of God's love and someday soon the Father will look to the earth and there will be much light. Many hearts will be filled with the fire of God's love. Let us be His apostles to go out and to spread this love and this light in the darkness. The Holy Spirit descended upon the apostles and they went out and thousands were converted because they were fearless and they lived only to love God. Let us be fearless apostles. Let us beg the Holy Spirit to fill us with this fire. Let us live to love: first, second, third – always, always, to love.

7. R. God created us in His own image and likeness. God is love. To be like God we must love. What an honor that God created man in His own image and likeness.

8. R. Many men in their arrogance spit on God and say they do not need God and go their merry way. Where are they going? What is their end?

Song: Choose Life

9. R. See the earth covered with the brightest light that you can imagine. It is the  light that is being emitted from the hearts that are filled with the fire of God's love.

10. Hail Mary

 

Our Blessed Lady is Taken Up into Heaven

1. R. Mary appeared, over and over again, and begged us to pray as we have never prayed before for many souls will be lost forever in the fires of hell. In every act of loving we can help the souls of the earth we live with. We are helping by how we live and offer up our whole day as a sacrifice for love of God. We are helping in our every action to help the souls Jesus died for. If we are performing our deeds all through the day in love of God, graces can be released by God on the whole earth from our offering, our prayers, our lives lived in love for our brothers.

2. R. God calls us to two things: to love of God and love of each other.

3. R. Our Beloved Mother walks by our side. She guards us and watches us with a love deeper than any earthly mother, with such a personal love and she is calling – the Lady is calling us to be children of light, to go into the world and to spread this light to all.

4. Song: Oh, the Lady is calling, calling us now

5. Song: Oh, Lady of Light

6. R. The light that I have seen comes down from the heavens as if it is spilling on the earth as if it is raining light, for the grace is flowing and it is flowing through the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass if we unite our every action in love with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Light is being spilled on this earth. God wants to outpour His grace on the earth. We must pray as Jesus directed us to pray and unite in our Morning Offering to the Masses going on all day around the world.

7. R. Life flows from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through the Heart of Mary and to us. We pray that grace is poured out to the dark world and God grants mercy to repenting souls. The light covered the earth and it was from hearts united in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Pray fervently – Unite to the Mass.

8. R. The light of Christ is brighter than any light that any human mind can fathom and it can cover the earth and it can flow from our hearts when we unite to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Let us go to the Hearts of our Mother, the pure and tender heart and ask her to take us deeply into the Heart of Jesus, for it is there that we unite with our beloved Father in the Holy Spirit. We want to dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and pray grace and mercy is showered on the earth. The world is in darkness – We pray to God and beg His help. We give our hearts and lives to God.

9. R. Jesus told us that we should love as He has loved us. He asks us to give our lives for each other.

10. Hail Mary

 

The Crowning of Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth

R. We beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

Song: Come Holy Spirit

R. See this world surrounding you and see the hardened hearts and the hearts that are cold and see those same hearts melted and turned into hearts of love, to hearts of giving. This is what the love of Jesus does. To meet another heart with hatred does not melt the frozen heart. It is only when your hearts are loving that the cold hearts will be melted with the fire of His love.

1. R. Jesus showed us the way for when they spit on Him, He was silent. He calls us to love. How can a person fight with a person that is silent?

2. R. See the souls, Jesus said on March 1st, parading into hell, for souls are shriveling in hell. Mary said in a rosary on August 5th, that the souls are dropping into hell like drops of rain. We are called as soldiers of the light and it is a heroic deed to help save souls.

3. R. The graces and mercies are being spilled out on this earth when we unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass with hearts that are one in Jesus and Mary.

4. R. At every moment, especially when it is difficult to love, see before you the crucified Christ and unite in the sacrifice of the crucified Christ - in the act of love. He shows us how He loved. He loved those who put Him to death.

5. Song: May the Angels Lead You into Paradise

6. R. See with the vision of God. What we see with our eyes is not all there is to see, but the unseen world the Almighty God that we know, in our heart, is truly a reality. Heaven and hell are real. We will go somewhere forever and ever and live in celestial bliss or in such agony. Jesus says He has put before us life or death. It is up to us to choose life. The price He paid that we would share in His life was His bitter Passion and death. He has called us as special apostles to march on the world as children of light and to carry His light as our banner forward into the darkened world

7. Song: Eye Has Not Seen

8. Jesus: I am the Almighty God. I say to the grass to grow and it grows, to the sun to shine and it shines and I say to you, to love. Will you answer this call, for as you live in this world today, I will live in you if you surrender and I will minister to the cold hearts through you. This is a great gift that I am giving to you these messages for I love you with a deep love and I am calling you to be My soldiers. You stand on the outskirts of the world beyond and what do you see? Where will you be when the end is near?

R. He will separate the sheep from the goats and many will fall into the pit. Think of those who are hardened in heart going into the fires of hell and when we had that chance that day to respond in love or in hatred. How did we choose to spread His love to this world?

Jesus: For many souls will be condemned forever and ever to the fires of hell. Hell is forever, hell is darkness, isolation, hatred, division, being without God forever. There is no escaping this final damnation for those who rebelled mortally against God and did not repent.5 I am Jesus. Will you help Me by your acts of love? Will you unite every action for the crucified Christ?

9. R. God opened the heavens and Jesus ascended into heaven and someday too we will be in heaven if we love and serve the Lord, for He calls us to love and He calls us to service. No matter how cold the world is, we carry out the work He has called us to, here as He lives in us. We are the mighty soldiers that He is sending into the darkness, filled with hearts of love.

Jesus: For you are the children of light and I am filling you with the burning light from My Sacred Heart. I love you. I love you. I love you to My death on the cross, I loved you.

10. Song: Choose Life

Jesus: I call you to feed My sheep. You are the shepherds that I send forth and the world will be lighted by your love.

Mary: I am Mary, your Mother. I have called you here to hear this message. I have given very few messages to this world for they do not hear the words that I speak. I am asking you to help spread the rosaries and the consecrations to the children. Children are suffering far more than you know, my little, sweet children. I beg you to help me to reach the children with the rosary and the consecration. Tell children about the love of my Son, Jesus. This is an urgent request for you do not know the sufferings that may befall the earth.

    I am calling you to pray with all your hearts for many sufferings could be alleviated through prayer. I am Mary, your Mother and I ask you please to help me to reach the children with the rosary and the consecration.

 

April 23, 1996

Tuesday at Our Lady of The Woods
Before the Tabernacle

Sorrowful Mysteries

Jesus: I am love. I have come to you in a special way this evening. I am calling you to open wide your hearts and let Me enter deeply into your heart. I love you with the deepest love. You do not trust and you do not thank Me for the great gifts that I have given to you. So few souls come to Me with burning love. They come and they recite words and I am longing for such love from you. Come to My Heart, My beloved ones, and let Me bathe you in My burning love. I am Jesus, on fire for love of you.

The Agony in the Garden

Jesus: Enter into the heart of My Mother, the heart of pure and tender love and feel the Holy Spirit fill you deeply with His love. As you are purified more in the heart of My Mother, come to My Heart, come into the white heat of My love. It is there, My dear ones, that you will unite with the Father's love. It is this vision that will set you free. Come to the whitest, deepest chamber of My Heart and feel the presence of the Almighty God. I am truly present with you and in this room.

R. The Almighty God is present. Bow to your Savior, His majesty, King, and unite in this white chamber with the Holy Eucharist, with the Sacrifice of the Mass being offered throughout the world as the priest raises the host in the deepest chamber of the Heart of Jesus. Unite with the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present in the Mass. Jesus gave Himself for love of us on Calvary and Jesus gives us Himself now in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

1. Jesus: I want such intimacy with My beloved souls. You hold yourself closed and you search for love in this world and I am waiting for you to come and to be so close to Me. This is a rosary that you will long remember. If you open your heart I will touch you in a special way. Release all of the anxieties in your life and be present to Me. Forget everything that you carry and feel the presence of the Almighty God. Such completeness and joy within your being! You are free and you are wrapped in My love.

2. Jesus: This is your place of refuge, the deepest chamber of My Heart, for around you, you will suffer many things that will cause you suffering and you will go to My Heart in the deepest chamber for your refuge. Come now, come to the red room. Let the world quiet around you and feel the presence of the Almighty God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, within your heart. Hear the roar of the fire from My burning love. You are wrapped in an embrace – a Divine embrace of My love. I am Jesus. Feel this presence for all eternity and you will know peace, love and joy. Completeness, you will know, the fire of God's love.

3. R. Jesus knelt in the Garden – Jesus Christ, the Son of God-made-Man and His Heart was filled with this burning love. So far beyond our imagination! The Heart that is love and He saw before Him today all of the souls and so many would forget Him and neglect Him. Many treat Him with such disrespect. Many use His name in vain and they pridefully march about this earth seeking pleasure speaking God's name in vain. Jesus knew all this anguish in the garden and His Heart was in such pain for He is love. Think of how it is to love someone with all your heart and be treated with such hatred and disrespect. To be cursed at, spit on, slapped – Jesus' Heart on fire for all men, knelt in the garden and He knew every sin of every man for all time vividly, in every detail. Every hatred, the vilest deed committed and His Heart was in such anguish that He sweat blood.

4. R. Jesus allows us to go through suffering in our lives today and we wonder why. We say, Jesus, for You I will do anything...and then He gives us suffering and we walk around and we complain. Our mouth and our heart do not always match. It is in great suffering that we unite deeper and deeper to the Heart of Jesus. Everything that we experience in our life today He is allowing, that we may join closer and closer to Him in deeper love. Every single thing that happens in our life, He allows and it is in staying rooted to Him that we learn lessons – lessons about Him.

5. Jesus: The trial that you experience in your life this day is a great gift from Me, in living in that trial according to the Father's will – you can grow in greater holiness and love.

6. R. He said, "Father, if it is possible, remove this cup from Me", but He complied to the Father's will and out of greatest love for us, Jesus gave Himself.

7. R. God gives us a sharing in His life in baptism. We carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. He loves through us. He serves through us. He helps others through us. We are His hands and we are His feet. Jesus lives today and He lives and acts in us.

8. Jesus: Satan will get you focused on little details that are of no account. You must ward against the workings of satan. He uses your minds to get you focused on such foolish things. I am waiting for the words of love recited from your mouth. Tell Me of your love. Do not listen to those words that confuse you in your minds. Come to My Heart and I will set you free.

9. R. He knelt there in the garden and the apostles slept.

10. Hail Mary

 

Jesus is Scourged at the Pillar

Jesus: I call you to surrender, My dear ones. There are many things in this world that are not of your liking. Do not fight, accept those things that I send to you that you will grow more in your love. I am teaching you in all the trials that you are experiencing. I am Jesus. I am there with you at every moment. I know your every thought. I know every desire in your heart. You cannot hide from Me. Trust Me. I am with you at every moment.

R. Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in Thee!

1. R. The tabernacle door opens and in it we behold the Almighty God. Jesus is truly present in this room with us now. Let us meditate on His presence with us. The same as the day that He stood at the Pillar and was beaten, He is in this room. What a great gift He gives to us. How do we thank Him for this gift?

2. R. My dear Jesus, I see the cold hearts in this world. I see the vileness on the television and what the little children are being taught and how few children are told of Your immense love for them. You commanded us to love God and to love one another, yet so many have excluded You completely from their lives. I want to help make reparation for my sins and the sins of all men.

3. R. God controls our every breath and our every heartbeat. He is the Creator and we are the creatures, subject to Him. We realize that at any moment that we could be snatched from this earth, yet we pridefully strut about the earth and do as we please. Let us pray for ourselves and all those that are so blind this day, that they have forgotten God and have excluded Him from their lives. Let us pray to God in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for an outpouring of grace for those souls whose hearts have turned dark.

4. R. Jesus stood at the pillar and they raised the instruments and they beat Him and His flesh was torn. His body was mangled, the blood flew in the air and His Heart still burning with love for each and every soul. Let us go to the Heart of Jesus and know this love, the love that He has, that He was crucified and gave Himself on the cross for us.

5. R. As we know more Jesus' love, as we are filled with Jesus' love and become one in Jesus, Jesus loves through us in the world today. God commands us to do two things: to love God and to love each other as ourselves. Jesus showed us that He loved us so, that He allowed them to beat and tear His flesh.

6. R. My Jesus, it is an act of the will when I am taunted and I am distracted, when I am confused and when I do not know where to turn, it is an act of my will to go to the whitest chamber in Your Heart and to unite with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I must put aside all of the thoughts in my mind that are distracting me and go to this refuge, this room where I know there is endless love, which wraps around me and sets me free, for if I am living only to love God and to do His will I know that You are protecting me during all the trials, when I seem so alone sometimes. It is in Your Heart that I find refuge. When the world caves in around me I go into Your Heart and I am lost in Your love.

7. R. We must discipline our thoughts and go to Jesus when we are troubled. What good does it do us to fight the Plan of God?

Jesus: My beloved ones, to ponder and focus on the problems in your life. Does this relieve the problem? Come to Me. I am the Almighty God. I can do all things and I will help you in your trials.

8. R. See Jesus, tied at the Pillar and beaten raw and look into His eyes and see the eyes that burn with love. Even though He was beaten, His eyes are gentle and kind. He does not holler back at the men, He looks at them with love. He came to show us the way.

Jesus: You are My hands and you are My feet. You are My Heart in this world today. As you love, I will love through you. Let your heart be pure and focused always on My ways. I am with you until the end of time. You have nothing to fear but the fear of sin, for I am with you at every second. It is only in sin that you will lose your soul.

9. Jesus: In the deepest and darkest night I am with you in your suffering. I was beaten at the Pillar for My love of you. I am with you this day.

10. Song: I Love You Jesus

Jesus: Many things this day are not to your liking. Surrender and know that in that trial you will learn more and more how to be as the Father intends you to be: loving, kind and gentle.

 

The Crowning with Thorns

Jesus: There will be one flock and one shepherd. The way to My Heart is through My Mother's heart. She is the keeper of My Heart. I bid you to go to the loving heart of My Mother and to come into the deepest chamber of My Heart. It is there that you will know the Father's love. Minute by minute, I am attentive to all of your needs. You must surrender and trust. It is in your trust that I pour out My love to you.

1. R. They pounded into His head a sharp crown of piercing thorns. Think of how it would be to sit still while the people that you loved so dearly pounded into your head a crown of thorns.

2. R. What is our problem that we cannot understand the small trials that He gives us this day? That we stay so focused on such incidental matters when He tells us how He is truly present at every second and He is telling us to surrender and instead of worrying, to tell Him how we love Him, for He is the Almighty God! He has all the power and going to Him will truly set us free.

3. R. Many this day have turned their backs on God and Mary cries out for the souls that will go to hell at every second. When we love we are helping souls to know Jesus. Jesus is love. Jesus has called us to do this work to help souls to get to heaven by giving our lives as a sacrifice for souls. Whatever it is, if it is eating or sleeping or loving, it is an offering, if we operate as the Father wills. Why do we hold back and not give our lives to the Father as a sacrifice, an offering, for this will help souls. It is the intention to give our lives, all that we do, to the Father, in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, to help grace to be released for the souls Jesus died for.

4. R. Jesus shows us how He gave. They pounded into His head a sharp crown of thorns and the blood ran down His face and into His eyes and His ears and He withstood this treatment for within was a Heart filled with burning love for His beloved souls. Can we not this day offer up our daily activities in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the souls of our brothers?

5. R. The angel at Fatima said to offer everything we do as a sacrifice for souls. Mary showed the three children the vision of hell and the children, so little, were horrified. Why do we close our eyes and not realize that it is really important that we join our lives to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for grace for the souls. By uniting our lives to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and offering it to the Father we will help in every activity that we perform, our lives become so important for grace to be released on the Church and the world. It is through Jesus' death that we have life. We offer our lives as a sacrifice that many will be saved, we pray for God's saving grace to be released.

6. R. Jesus shed His blood for the souls. Jesus asks us to love, for He lives in this world through us.

7. R. They hollered every ugly word against Jesus. God, who is all worthy of all our love and you think this is so terrible, but look at how Jesus is treated today – Jesus is ignored and forgotten by many. You cannot even speak His word to some because their hearts have turned to hearts of stone. Jesus comes with a kind and generous Heart, always ready to take the souls back, for He loves them. Let us pray fervently for so many souls on this earth today whose hearts have turned to stone. Jesus gave His blood for them!

8. R. Jesus ascended into heaven and left the apostles here to carry out His work, He gave us the Church – We as member of the mystical body of Christ are united in carrying out the work Christ began.

9. R. The richest source of grace that is released is in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. When we reunite to this and offer it to the Father, many souls will receive grace and turn from their sinful ways.

10. Hail Mary

 

Jesus Carries His Cross

R. But I just wish that this hadn't happened. Why did this happen? I felt so good and then this happened. What is the cross that Jesus gives you to carry this day? Do we not realize that the greatest sacrifice that was ever offered was that Jesus gave Himself on the cross for us and He rose on the 3rd day? When we accept the trials that we experience and unite them to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the grace flows on this earth. God wants our lives given in love, doing the Father's will.

1. Jesus: I give to you sufferings today. How do you accept the sufferings I give to you? It is in the suffering that you will know My life. Your life, a constant death and resurrection, constant dying and rising to new life – in each suffering you receive an abundant share in My life.

2. R. Jesus fell to the earth and the cross fell on Him. His face hit the ground and He could hardly get up but His Heart was filled with love. Love is an energy that helps us to move even under the most duress. Jesus, under the cross, got up three times because of His love for us.

3. R. Lord, let me walk that last mile in Your shoes, under the weight of the wood.

4. R. How do we walk the last mile under the weight of the wood? Do we complain? Do we realize that in carrying the cross we are given great graces for ourselves and for others?

5. R. Jesus' eyes peered into the eyes of His beloved Mother. In that embrace was the deep love between His Heart and her heart. Jesus saw her face reddened and covered with tears and she saw His face covered with blood. But we do not realize how much love Jesus and Mary have for us. Let us focus on the sight that Mary saw when she looked into the eyes of her beloved Son: See clearly before you, that face of Jesus, for this is reality – that the Son of God came to this earth and He gave Himself for love of man and He is crying out to each one of us in this room to spread His love. The world is sick and in pain and many are dying and dropping into hell. What do we do to wake the dead? What He asks us to do is so simple. He asks us to love God and love one another as ourselves and offer our daily activities as a sacrifice, in union with the Mass. Many do not have time for our beloved Jesus. But, we see His face on the ground and we see Him hang from the cross and I hear Him cry out, "Tell them, Rita, tell them, tell them." Do you know what it is to hear the voice of Jesus call out, "Tell them, Rita, tell them Rita, tell them." Do you know what it is to hear the voice of Jesus call out, "I am alive, I am alive, I am alive", and no one pays heed.

Jesus: I gave Myself for love of you. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. This is an urgent message to every person in this room. I am longing for your love. I want to be one in you, to live in you, to touch the hardened hearts through you this day. I am God and I am speaking to you.

6. R. Do you know what it is to see the face of our beloved Mother before you and to hear her say that souls will go to hell and to beg and to beg – this is our heavenly Mother that is talking to us. Let our hearts be moved to love God with our whole heart, our whole soul and our whole being and to love our neighbor that they may see His life alive in us, to be fearless soldiers to march on the world and to carry the banner of His love in the darkness.

7. R. They spit on Him and the blood ran all over His body. Jesus was beaten all over His body and then He carried the heavy cross and fell to the ground. They pulled Him up and kicked Him and forced Him to move on and we say, "but I can't love this day, that person is just mean to me", and the Heart of Jesus is burning love.

8. R. It is all in our hearts. How many hearts are shut down. The life of God lives within our hearts. If the heart is cut off from the vine it has no life and it withers and dies. So many of Mary's children this day are wandering down the dark street looking for pleasure to fill themselves and their hearts are like stone.

9. Hail Mary

10. R. Like ripples on a pond, love radiates. God works in us when we become one in Him and when He touches the heart of someone through us it spreads speedily, like a burning fire, for His love is on fire for souls.

 

Jesus is Crucified and Dies on the Cross

R. Lord, let me walk that last mile in Your shoes. When Jesus is one with us, all of our actions are magnified with the might of the Almighty God. In one small act of loving, it reverberates and touches so many hearts. We do not know the seeds that we plant even when we go to the store, but at every moment we are helping to bring down great grace in our Morning Offering as members of the body of Christ. When we are doing the Father's will with love, it is a most heroic act - to love.

1. R. You cannot love too much. We are to love according to the Father's will, Jesus' Heart is a fire, far beyond our imagination. Let us pray to Him to give us the grace to love as He loves through us.

2. R. Love is self-giving for the good of the other, according to the Father's will. Jesus showed us the greatest act of love when He spread His arms and He selflessly gave His all for love of us. In all of our acts today we carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. When we are united to the Mass, all day in our Morning Offering, it is a great act of love of God and others. In this simple act of love – there is such grace released when we unite it to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

 

   

3. R. The world will shine with the brightest light and hearts all over the world will love God with the most fervent love. Mary said at Fatima: The Sacred Heart of Jesus will Reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. We must consecrate our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. We want God to dwell in us. We will carry out His love in our lives this day.

4. R. Mary stood beneath the cross and she watched her beloved Son. Just think for a moment, think of all the pain that Jesus suffered. Think of what it would be like to have nails pounded into your hands and your feet and your head crowned with thorns, and wounds all over your body, beaten with harsh instruments, drained of all of your blood and to hang on a cross for three agonizing hours.

    But Jesus says to us, "My greatest sufferings were not what I experienced to My body but to My Heart, for I love the souls with the deepest love and I am forgotten and treated with such indifference." Jesus would rather have one soul that loves Him with the deepest love than a million souls that have a cold love toward Him or love Him half-heartedly.

Jesus: Will you be that soul? Will you be the soul that warms My Heart? Will I hear the words from your lips all day as you go about your activities and you take those small moments and say, 'Jesus, I love You.' Will you march into this world and tell others how much you love Me that they too might think about how great the love of God is? You are My hands and you are My feet. My hands were pierced and My feet were pierced for love of you. I ask you now to lift yours in love of your brothers.

5. R. Let us join in one mind and one heart all together in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and pray for this world that the grace and mercy of the Almighty God will reign on the earth.

6. Acts 7: 51 - 8: 1

    'You stubborn people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears. You are always resisting the Holy Spirit, just as your ancestors used to do. Can you name a single prophet your ancestors never persecuted? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Upright One, and now you have become his betrayers, his murderers. In spite of being given the Law through angels, you have not kept it.'

    They were infuriated when they heard this, and ground their teeth at him.

But Stephen, filled with the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at God's right hand. 'Look! I can see heaven thrown open,' he said, 'and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God.' All the members of the council shouted out and stopped their ears with their hands; then they made a concerted rush at him, thrust him out of the city and stoned him. The witnesses put down their clothes at the feet of a young man called Saul. As they were stoning him, Stephen said in invocation, 'Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.' Then he knelt down and said aloud, 'Lord, do not hold this sin against them.' And with these words he fell asleep.

Saul approved of the killing.
 

R. In the First Reading this morning, Paul said that they are stiff-necked people and uncircumcised in hearts and ears. Jesus wants us to be in one mind and one heart with each other. We put up walls and keep ourselves away from one another. Jesus wants us to love each other as brothers and sisters with God as our Father and Mary as our Mother. St. Paul said we oppose the Holy Spirit and we are just like our ancestors.

7. R. Mary said at Fatima: "Until a sufficient number have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary we will not have peace in this world." Let us give our hearts in love to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary that we will be what Jesus wants us to be. That we will live in Him. He will use us to help light up the dark world. Jesus hung on the cross for three hours. Jesus' body was the great light against the darkened sky. If we stay in union with Christ crucified, we will be a great light against the darkness in this world.

8. R. In the cross there is the Resurrection. Jesus comes and Jesus gives to us a sharing in His Divine life in baptism. The Sacred Heart of Jesus will Reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph.

9. Song: See the Eyes that Look at Mary

R. Can we see as Mary looked into the eyes of Jesus? Can we see as Mary saw Jesus hang on the cross covered with blood and withered? Can we see as Mary saw her Son – His face covered with blood and His head crowned with thorns? Do you know how much Jesus loves us – that He died – He died for me.

10. Jesus: I call you, My beloved ones, to love God and love one another.

Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle B —  The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and 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. $15

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 10.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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

Priestly Newsletter 2000 Issue 1
Audio CD - Read by Father Edward J. Carter
$ 10.00  plus postage

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #1 - CD. - Christ is Our Strength - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our-selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #2 - CD. - Suffering: A Source of Life - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. Fr. Carter knew suffering that year. His voice is so powerful as he read each Newsletter from his heart and soul. "Every man has his own share in the redemption. Each one is also called to share in that suffering through which the redemption was accomplished. He is called to share in that suffering through which all human suffering has also been redeemed. In bringing about the redemption through suffering, Christ has also raised human suffering to the level of the redemption. Thus each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ–." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
