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.

Written June 30, 2001

Messenger:    My beautiful Sacred Heart,

                            You are always with me to comfort me.
                                Oh my God I love You with all my heart.

                            I feel a little sad to see another month of
                                the Sacred Heart end.

                            I love June for it is His Special month to
                                honor His Sacred Heart.

                            Now I have 30 minutes and the month of
                                June, 2001 will end.

                            Father Carter celebrated it with Jesus this 
                                year in a new way.

                            Father Willig was there too.

                            Today was the most beautiful day for
                                Father Willig's funeral.

                            It was so beautiful.
                            I felt so close to the Church and the
                                Archdiocese of Cincinnati.

                            I love the Church so much.

                            I love to be with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
                                chapel at the Cathedral.


July 1, 2001 message continues

Messenger:         I feel His Presence so strong in there, I just
                                love Him so much. 

                            I love the Church so much.

                            I thank God for our beautiful priests and for
                                the beautiful life of Father Willig.

                            Father Willig put the Prayer for Union with
                                Jesus in his book Lessons from the School of Suffering,
                                a young priest with cancer teaches us how to live
                                by Reverend Jim Willig with Tammy Bundy

Prayer for Union with Jesus

    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

July 1, 2001 message continues

Messenger:         It was so special to me hearing his brother
                                talk about Father Willig's experiences
                                with cancer.

                            It was a beautiful celebration and a great
                                time for deep prayer in deeply
                                united hearts.

                            It was a gift from God and all his seeds
                                live on.

                            Oh my sweet beautiful Sacred Heart, my eyes fill with
                                tears because of my deep love for Thee and Your
                                gifts to us.

                            Please help me to love You more and more purely.
                                Help me to see my faults and not be so blind
                                to them so I can be more like You.

                            It truly is blindness. I pray for that light to see
                                what I need to see. I want that grace. He can
                                open my eyes and change my heart
                                quicker than the batting of an eye.

                            I saw as never before, He changed my heart to love
                                Him and others in a new deeper way,
                                it was His grace that filled me and I saw
                                differently. He spoke through me to tell
                                me how I must be to be more like Him.

                            Oh my God, I want Thee. I want the deepest union
                                with You, I want Your protection. I want
                                to be saturated with Your grace. I want to
                                see as never before. I love You so much my
                                    Sacred Heart.

                            When we are hurt we do not even see sometimes
                                how we hurt others.

                            Give us light to want to love more perfectly.
                            Give us what we need.
                            We need You.
                                   Oh God --- Come and Possess My Soul

                            Now we can pray through the intercession
                                of Father Carter and Father Willig.

                                Two wonderful priests of God.

                            Oh God the funeral was a gift and so was
                                this man, a priest, a beautiful priest of God.

A PLEDGE FROM AN APOSTLE OF THE SACRED HEART

Messenger:

          I am but a little speck on this earth,
                 but with His might He can use me
                 to spread the devotion to His
                 Most Sacred Heart.

          Oh dear and precious Heart of Jesus
                 I give myself as completely as
                 possible to Thee so you will use
                 me to spread the devotion to the
                 ends of the earth for Your most
              precious Heart.

          I am Rita your precious soul.

          Use me to help to spread this burning
               devotion to the souls of this earth.

          I am yours, take me, use me as you
                 will.

           I surrender myself to you.

          It is your might behind me, your power
                 that sends me. I am an Apostle of
                 the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I give
                 myself as completely as possible to
                 Thee.             

          Sacred Heart of Jesus I place my
                 trust in Thee.

          Father hear us please. We beg through
                the  intercession of Father Carter
                and Our Lady of Clearwater that 
                prayer chapters are started all over
                the world and the Priestly Newsletter
                gets there immediately with the
                Prayer Manual.

 

 

A Note from the President of Shepherds of Christ:

If you are devoted to Our Lady's rosary, we need your help! A member of our ministry is very devoted to Our Blessed Mother and he is helping to teach us how to grow our volunteer rosary makers. He estimates that we will need approximately $37,000 this year for beads alone! This translates into 22,339,500 rosary beads (yes, 22 million beads) assembled by volunteers into 378 thousand rosaries. The biggest users of our rosaries are the Catholic schools, who requested more than 100,000 rosaries last year.

Can you help us? I appeal to you for funds, whether large or small. We give because we love God, we love our Blessed Mother, and we love souls. We will accept gifts in many forms, besides cash or check donations, we can receive gifts directly in the form of stocks or property. These gifts can offer large tax advantages to the donor and increase the monetary value of the gift to us. Also if you can help assemble rosaries we need your help! If you can help us in anyway, please call or write us. God Bless!

I love you,
John Weickert

 

 

         

A rosary can be used to pray for healing. It is powerful to unite our prayers to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and pray through the powerful intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater.

In times of trouble, for special prayer, we can use our rosary and pray as follows.

A Rosary for Healing or for Someone with Cancer.

On one Hail Mary bead or as many as you desire, say: 

May God heal                     through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater in union with the Mass and all the Masses being celebrated around the world.

Pray the Hail Mary or Hail Mary's then pray this after the Hail Mary.

May the cancer be uprooted and thrown into the sea.

We believe with all our hearts.

After the Glory Be — pray the following petition.

May                     be healed through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater if it be the holy will of God.

Note: You can look at Mary on the image rosary while you pray this rosary.

Note: The above section can be printed out from a PDF file, and you can pray the rosary looking at the pictures.

 

December 17, 2000, Mary speaks:

Help me to circulate my red and blue
    Rosary Books and the
    prayers my Son gives to you.

This is a gift we give you.
All the revelations are gifts given to you.
My Son is the Light of the World.
He is Jesus born in a stable.
Will you help me?
He is the Light of the World. Help me, help me
    reach my children of the world.
