June 7, 1999 - Message from Jesus, and June 4, Second Part of Message from First Friday on the Mass
A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul
Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.
June 7, 1999 - Message from Jesus and June
4, Second part of messsage fro First Friday on the Mass.
Jesus speaks: If you knew how much I love you, you would never be bowed down. Focus on My undying love for you.
Pray the rosary, meditate on My love.
I LOVE YOU.
I AM THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS.
Messenger: This is the second part of a writing given on June 4, 1999, First Friday, 6:00 a.m. on the 4th day of the month of the Sacred Heart. The writing is on the Mass.
THE MASS - PART TWO from June 4, 1999 First Friday in the Month of the Sacred Heart.
Messenger: In the beginning of the Mass we ask to be united with God in this act of His greatest love for us. We tell God we are sorry for our sins. We ask for pardon and mercy. The communication is between God and man. "Lord, have mercy", "Christ, have mercy", "Lord, have mercy". We are there as children and we sing glory to our God. We hold not back our voices, we recognize the Divine Almighty God and we sing to Him. "Glory to God in the highest."
He feeds us with His word in the readings and the Gospel. In His word we see our relationship to our God and to each other. We learn of letting go and being existent in Him. We are called to deeper union with God. We are existent in Him.
The dying of the self is crucial. We must desire to be more likened to Jesus in this union, to be formed more and more in His image and likeness. The more deeply we dwell in His Heart in the Holy Sacrifice, the more intimate we become with Him, the more we are transformed. Graces are given to us in the Mass to transform us more into His likeness. We, His creatures, offer ourselves to the Almighty God.
I unite to the Blessed Mother, I dwell in her Immaculate Heart. She is the most perfect spouse of the Lamb. I am united as His spouse most profoundly in the Mass the more I let go of myself and exist in Him.
Spousal union is that of oneness. Spousal union with Christ is that of merging more and more into a deep mystical union with our beloved Creator through this deep union with our beloved Jesus, the Lamb Who is offered.
We offer ourselves to our God. We give honor and glory. Holy, Holy, Holy Lord we sing, "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord". We give Him glory and honor and recognize His greatness. We want to serve Him, we recognize our creaturehood, we want to be reconciled. The words of the Eucharistic Prayer say so much. I ask here that all read Eucharistic Prayer IV and be one with God in this whole prayer. Focus on God and the Consecration. Feel the words of the Mass, talk to God with all your heart.
Say the words, "Through Him, with Him, in Him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all glory and honor is Yours, Almighty Father, for ever and ever." Feel the words in your heart and say with your whole heart, "AMEN." This means we are one in this prayer.
We pray the prayer to the Father Jesus taught us, begging "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."
We pray "Lamb of God, You take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us."
We pray this two times then we say, "Lamb of God, You take away the sins of the world: grant us peace."
We recognize we are not worthy to receive Him and then He comes to us, the Bridegroom of our souls.
It is the renewed union of the Lamb with the hungry soul waiting His grace.
It is the journey into the depth of union with Him.
And in those intimate moments after reception of Him, He implants deep knowledge of Himself on our souls.
God, the Son of God, gives Himself in the Holy Eucharist to a sinful man.
How much it pleases Him if we treasure this gift and look forward to it day and night.
In the Eucharist we are nourished by His Body and Blood. The Mass is indeed a time of feeding our soul with His word and the Eucharist.
The Eucharist is the Sacrament of His greatest love. God gives Himself to man in an intimate spousal union.
A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul
Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.
The following Imprimatur applies only to the Prayer for
Union with Jesus and not the message above or below.Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.
I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.
I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.
When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.
-God's Blue Book, January 17, 1994
Messenger: The tree of life, God gives Himself to us.
Jesus speaks: The Mass has great effects on the whole world.
I wish that priests realize that they can do more by offering Mass than by anything else they do. The greater their union with Me, the greater the effects of the Mass.
Oh that they were as busy for their personal union with Me as they are for other things in their lives! Come before the tabernacle, remain after Communion with Me, My beloved priests. Please pray My prayers (Shepherds of Christ Prayer Manual) and offer yourselves in consecration to Our Hearts. Please consecrate your churches and schools to Our Hearts.
Lord, Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock, I consecrate my priestly life to your Heart, pierced on Calvary for love of us. From Your pierced Heart the Church was born, the Church You have called me, as a priest, to serve in a most special way. You reveal Your Heart as a symbol of Your love in all its aspects, including Your most special love for me, whom You have chosen as Your priest-companion. Help me always to pour out my life in love of God and neighbor. Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You!
Dear Blessed Virgin Mary, I consecrate myself to your maternal and Immaculate Heart, this Heart which is symbol of your life of love. You are the Mother of my Savior. You are also My Mother. You love me with a most special love as this unique priest-son. In a return of love I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock, Who leads me to the Father in the Holy Spirit.
Jesus speaks: I AM THE TREE OF LIFE.
John 15:1-8
I am the true vine,
and my Father is the vinedresser.
Every branch in me that bears no fruit
he cuts away,
and every branch that does bear fruit
he prunes
to make it bear even more.
You are clean already,
by means of the word
that I have spoken to you.
Remain in me, as I in you.
As a branch cannot bear fruit all by itself,
unless it remains part of the vine,
neither can you unless you remain in me.
I am the vine,
you are the branches.
Whoever remains in me, with me in him,
bears fruit in plenty;
for cut off from me you can do nothing.
Anyone who does not remain in me
is thrown away like a branch
--and withers;
these branches are collected
and thrown on the fire
and are burnt.
If you remain in me
and my words remain in you,
you may ask for whatever you please
and you will get it.
It is to the glory of my Father
that you should bear much fruit
and be my disciples.
Jesus speaks: MY BELOVED SOULS I LOVE YOU.
Q: How do I feel in my heart when I am divided with you?
