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.

Messenger:
I spent a lot of
time with Father Carter and I learned
the Jesuit way. He was so holy.
Every
day he would stop 10 minutes twice a day and
examine his conscience. He would say "I have to
make my 'examine'." He never skipped this, he
never skipped his office. Whenever we would go
to China, he would spend a lot of the time
on the way home praying. As soon as we left
China he would usually spend ten minutes
doing his "examine" he called it. He sat
quietly with his eyes closed and did his
examination of conscience. He was required as a
Jesuit to do this twice daily and he never skipped.
He then during the time home usually prayed
his office. He did it sometimes going down. His
office books were very worn. He wanted a second
set when they were very old and used.
The
message Our Lord has given me today is we,
as Shepherds of Christ, must examine our consciences.
The devil gets in our thinking many times and we blame
others for our own bad moods. It is important to look at
the sins of our past life and ask God to forgive us,
realizing
how we have offended God and telling Him we are sorry.
We waste a lot of
time giving into the
tauntings of satan in our minds. We
must realize we are going to be held accountable
for our time here.
Here is
a message Jesus gave me in 1994 about
judging others that follows after
today's message.

A woman joined Alanon because

The first meeting she learned

Jesus speaks: Count every moment as a blessing.
Thank your Father for your gifts.
Do not expect people to be perfect.
Luke 23: 34
Jesus said, ‘Father, forgive them; they do not know what they are doing.’

Jesus speaks: Forgive others.
Satan is a prowling lion looking
for one to devour.
He wants you to talk cruelly about others
behind their backs.
Use the Blue Books.
Sail the skies in a hot
air balloon.
Don't give into always seeing
yourself as a victim.
You can cause yourself and
everybody else a lot of trouble.
Look inside, ask for
grace to be loving.
I came, the suffering servant.
I operate in structure.
A young man entered a religious
order.
He tried to cause trouble, not
accepting authority, rather
than thinking he had
anything wrong he blamed
his bad moods and discontent
on others.
In a community there is always
a leader.
Satan tries to weaken the leader.
People that do not love are not
acting like Me.
People that cause trouble to get
ahead are not pleasing Me.
The man in the order must leave
when he acts disharmoniously
wanting the leader to
fill his unmet needs from
wounds in old relationships.
I want men that are loving and
in charge of themselves.
I want strong soldiers, ones that
depend on Me.

God the Father speaks:
Today I wish you to
write to Me. Write at
least a few sentences
everyday of the gifts you
received today. Keep this
book - It will be flowers
placed beneath My throne.
Excerpt from May 29, 2000 Daily Message
God the Father speaks: The pages of the book of your lives are being written. These moments of your lives are so dear to Me, for you offer your lives as a sacrifice for souls.
Write to Me what you did today, yesterday, date it. Are you spending the precious moments of your lives offering sacrifice to Me (the Father) for My honor and glory and giving your lives as a sacrifice for souls?
Write a short page every day or the following day, similar to an examination of conscience, seeing the good (so much good you accomplish you overlook, so many precious moments of joy you forget) and the times you were troubled.
The devil tries to keep you focused on the problems.
Oh My shepherds, helping to shepherd My flock, there is so much good you accomplish every day.
Write a short page, date it, read over it when you are troubled, keep it in a book, see how many joyful moments you have every day.
Give them to Me as a bouquet of flowers placed at My feet on that last day, the pages of the life of your book.
You will want all pages to be done in love, all for the honor and glory of God.
Oh My chosen children, I am the Father and I love you so much. Pray the prayer from Jesus before His bitter passion.

Excerpt from October 19, 1998 Daily Message
We must sweep away the debris in our hearts. We must pray for the gifts of the Holy Spirit and pray for the fruits of the Holy Spirit.
Love brings joy.
1 Corinthians 13:4-13
Love is always patient and kind; love is never jealous; love is not boastful or conceited, it is never rude and never seeks its own advantage, it does not take offence or store up grievances. Love does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but finds its joy in the truth. It is always ready to make allowances, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes.
Love never comes to an end. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if tongues, they will fall silent; and if knowledge, it will be done away with. For we know only imperfectly, and we prophesy imperfectly; but once perfection comes, all imperfect things will done away with. When I was a child, I used to talk like a child, and see things as a child does, and think like a child; but now that I have become a adult, I have finished with all childish ways. Now we see only reflections in a mirror, mere riddles, but then we shall be seeing face to face. Now, I can know only imperfectly; but then I shall know just as fully as I am myself known.
As it is, these remain: faith, hope, and love, the three of them; and the greatest of them is love.
{Messenger: For more details go to the message of October 19, 1998.}
Excerpt from October 19, 1998 message continues
I give you My love, I give you one another. You must grow always in a more perfected way of loving. You must be rooted in love for God, you must love one another and you must have a healthy self love. If any of the three are missing, you will have tremendous problems in loving.
Parents are teachers. Unless they have grown in more perfect ways of loving, they teach as their parents taught them. That is why I ask you to circulate the Holy Spirit Novena as soon as possible. People must pray for generational healing. You need healing in your hearts.
I want you to grow in your ways of loving so that you will more unite in holy love and be more likened to your God. It is through a deep examination of conscience, twice daily, with God's grace, you will see some of your unloving ways.
You are unloving to your God, to one another and to yourselves. You do not treasure the gift God has given you in giving you yourself. You are so precious to the Father. You are His creation.
I wish you to tell one another you are sorry for offending one another at the end of the day. I do not wish you to sacrifice truth, ever, this is not love. Love is strong, tough and truthful. Oh child I do love you so very much.
Jesus
Messenger: When I do not feel good inside, many times I blame it on the person I am closest to.
Jesus speaks: It is in the examination of conscience, in recognizing all that others do for you, that you will grow in holiness.
In reading the message "Is your glass half-full or half-empty?" Blue Book III (please include here) you will see things differently.
Is Your Glass Half-Full or Half-Empty?
April 18, 1994
Messenger: How is your day? Is your glass half-full or half-empty? This is the gauge to how you are feeling inside. Are you seeing all the blessings He is pouring out to you-your health, your food, your loved ones, all the blessings that you have each day? Or are you coming from a place of never having enough? Do you feel irritable and feel that nothing is right, that everything is wrong?
Is the glass half-full or is it half-empty? Do you look for things that are right in your world or do you look for things that are wrong? Do you know that God gives to you exactly what you need and that it is in your acceptance of these things that you grow in your relationship with Him?
Is the glass half-full or half-empty? Do I look at the world and see the love of God in my brothers? Do I look at the world and see the world as not giving to me?
God has all you need. God provides us with our needs. The world is hurting. The world is not that by which we are filled. The world cries from its own pain. How can the world fill us?
We crave the love of God. Our souls can only be satisfied by the love of God. When we see the world as a place that needs God's love, we come to the world with a full glass.
How is your glass today? Is it half-full or half-empty? If you go to our beloved Jesus, He fills you with His love. His love is emitted from your very being. When you spend time with Him and remain fixed in Him, there is peace in His love.
The biggest contribution you can give to yourself and this world is to busy yourself with your relationship with Jesus. Be an empty vessel (glass) ready to be filled by His love.

Jesus speaks: I beg you to live by the Blue Books. You will not survive as a member of the core group in the Shepherds of Christ unless you carry the 3rd Blue Book with you. I wish you to circulate it extensively. The devil's means of attack is to divide hearts which need to stay united. He wants you to be angry and divided with your brothers. The third Blue Book will help you. The more you grow in deeper intimate relationships and merge toward oneness, the more your imperfections will surface. When in an argument with someone you love, pray the speedy novena (9 Hail Marys) and read Blue Book III. This will help you. I give you My letters of love in God's Blue Book III for this purpose. Do not worry about problems, give your cares to Me.
I love you,
Jesus

Excerpt from November 17, 1999 Daily Message
Jesus speaks: It takes time to know the truth.
You must spend time with Me and others working through issues that will lead to your acting in the truth and acting according to God's will.
It may be a struggle, but one well worth it.
Examination of conscience, looking at the previous day's events, or analyzing the events at the end of the day will help you see things you need to see.
LOOK WITHIN.
Matthew 25:34
Then the King will say to those on his right hand, "Come, you whom my Father has blessed, take as your heritage the kingdom prepared for you since the foundation of the world.
November 17, 1999 - Second Message
Jesus speaks: You do not know how unloving are the souls. Oh My child, I want you to work together in love. Loving one another, not being prideful and full of self, but working toward a goal of what God wants. I am testing your group to see how you will join in love, pulling together to do what the Father has asked you to do.
Oh, you do not see your unloving ways. Pray for grace and light and for peace. Pray to love and live in peace and harmony. Men must walk within the structure I provide or it won't work. Men in authority must work for My will, not control.
John 13:35
It is by your love for one another,
that everyone will recognise you
as my disciples.
November 17, 1999 - Fourth Message
Messenger: My dear Jesus, I need you today to show me the truth. After Communion I know I am so close to you. I want the light to do Your will. Since You have told us to look into our past and examine our actions in an examination of conscience, I feel I am learning so much about my ways, good and bad.
Jesus speaks: My child, you must see the good you do as well as the bad things that may be unintentional, but hurt others and cause disunity and heartbreak.
I want you holy as saints. Trying to prove you are right many times just leads to arguments. A person may be irritated regarding some event, pressured to be somewhere, tired, etc. You must tolerate and love each other, forgiving one another. How a person is one minute may change ten minutes later after he eats or takes care of one of his needs. You must live to love. When they beat Me, I loved them, when they hung Me on the cross, I loved them. You must study Me and yourselves and quit judging others, thinking if you fix them, you will be better. You will be better if you tend to your own lives. There are so many hidden ways in which you act that offend Me and others. You must deal with yourselves. I will judge you on your actions, how you loved. Oh, I loved you to My death on the cross. Meditate on this. Don't let Satan work in your minds creating a case with others. When you are being taunted, write Me about your insecurities, your past, your feeling unloved. Read the Blue Book, then see if you still need to handle the matter. I am not telling you to avoid problems. Some problems are situations the devil tries to get you involved in to "eat up" your precious time and take away your peace.
You need silence with Me. I give great grace before the tabernacle and especially after the reception of the Eucharist.
I love you so much.
I am Jesus, Savior of the World.
I want you to live the next month focusing on your love relationship with Me, doing the Father's will and looking inside yourselves to be more holy. Pray to be forgiven, pray for grace for yourself to do this inward examination of yourselves and for everyone in the Movement. Pray for healing. I love you, Jesus.

Excerpt from February 28, 2000 Daily Message
Messenger: I have known heaven-like heights. My soul thirsts, for I have known places of deepest agony and now I write to you as my Master and Bridegroom prescribes.
Jesus speaks: My child, before prayer and important meetings are times of greatest attack for the evil one.
My child, I prompt you to act as prescribed by Me through messages. Timing is crucial. The devil wants to divide your Movement and tear it to shreds. My child, he works in the "he said/she said" of the evil one, as an innocent tongue may spread a dart of fire to a wounded soul. My child, he reads the heart, he knows the wounds, the weaknesses of the wounded soul. He convicts the person in the chambers of a mind, he manipulates events around the situation to create a slander. A slander he wants. He works in the emotions of a person and with all the wounds of that chosen soul he creates a similar wound by a present party. The emotions can be manipulated by the devil when he presses in on the soul. You may undergo tremendous torture, but the will is always there to "hang in with your God." My child, I say this, communication will become more difficult than ever before and I will allow such testing, for your souls will be drawn closer to Me as you endure and say yes to love and trust those I have sent to you. You must say often, "Sacred Heart of Jesus I trust in You." Do you want peace or division? Do you want love and peace or turmoil and stress? My child, I speak to you of the ancient serpent of which Revelation speaks.
Revelation 12: 11
They have triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word to which they bore witness, because even in the face of death they did not cling to life.
Excerpt from February 28, 2000 message continues
Jesus speaks: You must fight the temptation to tear another apart because of your own insecurity. You must write of your own insecurities and feelings in times of great temptation.
The devil may attack when you are off guard, you must always spend your time daily before the tabernacle, always go to daily Mass and Communion. My apostles cannot endure without this grace. They will spiral down a path in which they feel victimized and believe everyone else is at fault.
All must look at themselves. The tapes and writings given between October 15, 1999 - December 17, 1999, will help you to work on yourselves. Leaders may be led into a trap to fix everyone else and play the rescue game as they become busier and busier. You are fooling yourselves, if you miss your own self-inventory. An examination of conscience is necessary at least twice daily if you want true holiness.
You should ask for the grace to see the hidden ways in your own personalities in which you cause disharmony.
I want all apostles saying the leader's prayer daily.
As you choose Me over Satan's distractions before prayer, as you choose gratitude and appreciation for the gift I am giving you know that I am speaking to you and have called you to this mission.
As you truly see that it is gratitude your God desires for His gift to you of Himself, gratitude for these revelations and for the Eucharist, you will be able to work better together. All in Morrow need to practice the love circle, saying you are sorry for hurting each other. Because of the location of all the various homes, you do not say this enough to one another. Say it in love to all you work with. Fax a note in the early evening. Fax a note of consecration during the day.
Oh My children, I love you so much. There have been other ministries that have folded or almost folded because the people within could not love each other.
I will let you be tested so you will learn to work in peace and love. People who work together and have experienced conflict should consecrate daily and express love and ask forgiveness every day in early evening to stay united. This is essential to forgive each other.
I am the Director of this Movement. I direct through the messages. To press on My messenger displeases Me. You must have the faith to work together in love.

How Do I Love Thee, Jesus?
April 19, 1994 at Father Smith's Chapel 9:45a.m.
R. How do I love You, Jesus? I love You according to where I am in my heart. Do I judge my brothers-some are okay and some I want to avoid? Do I see with Your eyes, God, every child most precious to You.
How do I love You, Jesus? Am I eager to spread Your love to the hurting ones as well as the nice ones? Do I remember how You loved all to Your death? You did not die just for some. You died for the precious love of each and every soul.
How do I love You, Jesus? Do I love You in my brothers this day, or do I think, "Tomorrow I will love them all the way He wants." Every minute of every day is an opportunity for me to love my hurting brothers. If I miss moments in this day to love, they miss the love You want to give to them through me.
How do I love You, Jesus? How will I love the people You put in my path today? Will I love at all? Will my heart be fixed on You, or will I think of my own selfish interests and let a golden opportunity slip through my fingers?
How did I love You, Jesus, this day? I cannot love, Jesus, as You did. I need Your Heart to live in me. I need my heart to be filled with Your love. Oh, Jesus, let me join my heart to Yours. Teach me to love, as You so desire, all my brothers with a heart of love.
How did I love You, Jesus, this day? I need You, Lord. I need Your grace. I need You joined to me. Make me selfless and empty, ready to be filled by You. Help me to love with a heart full of Your love. Your way is not easy, Lord. I cannot do it without You, working in me. Join my heart in love to You that I might love as You desire. I love You, Jesus, my Lord, my God, my all. How can I love You as I ought? Do I want to love You, Lord, in my brothers? Do I choose to love?
Do I forgive, Lord? Do I forgive as You did when You forgave those who crucified You? Do I see how You showed me the way to love? You are so beautiful, Lord. You showed the way to love and forgiveness. Teach me Your ways, Lord. When You taught them Your ways of love, Lord, You were not popular. They persecuted You. They did not want to hear Your ways. Help me to be open, Lord, to the changes You want to occur in me so I can grow to be the light You want to shine in this dark world.
Jesus: My child, there is no growth if the plant remains the same. Be ready to be pruned and plucked, cut back, watered, fertilized. Growth is not always easy, but what a beautiful plant in the end. Be ready for the pruning. Be ready for all that I send you. Be open and ready, for the day of the Lord is at hand. Every day you will be used to help others to grow in My love. Your trials are necessary for your growth. Without the trials you will not learn the teachings you need to do the work. Be an open door, accept all I send through the door and praise Him Who loves you dearly.
You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill will shine brightly with the love of God radiating from the hearts of those who dwell there. I call you, My child, to love one another. This will light the darkest night. I am your Jesus, Son of the Living God. I am that light that shines from you. Be open to Me. Be ready, for My day is at hand and I operate from you. I love you, My beloved ones. Harken to My call. It is an urgent call from Him Who loves you dearly and cries out for the love of My beloved little ones who are in darkness. Do not be distracted by this world. Focus on Me and My love. I am the light that shines in the darkness. Let My light shine from your souls.

Surrender {Excerpt}
June 17, 1993 - Early Evening
...Surrender to My power. Feel it as it lifts you up like a balloon over the troubled earth. You don't care. You know it will all work out. Look at all you worried all your life-for what? Did it go away? No, you only suffered for your lack of trust. Trust Me and let it go. I am the God of Jacob and Joseph and all your ancestors. Doesn't it seem silly to think of them wasting their life worrying? It didn't add a moment to their life. Listen to My work and just do it, let go, live and be happy. My joy is there. You have been lifted up and now you see and feel this glory of the Lord. Alleluia. Alleluia. Alleluia. ...

...I love you so much. I truly do. I wait and watch you in the night and all day lest your foot stumbles and falls. Quit thinking you are in control. All you control is your will and what I really want is total surrender. I want to run you, totally, out of love and trust in Me. I want you to become selfless and let Me possess your soul. Then your life will fly, like the hot air balloon. You are free. You are unattached. You sail the skies and you do not meet any resistance from the earth. You are above the earth. It has no power over you. You are powered by the fire of My love. You remain high and upward. I am at the helm. You only trust in Me. I watch the wind and the weather. I look out for you. You are My little babies in a hot air balloon...

...Heaven itself shows My might. I am such a good God. Do you even know Me a little? Pray when you are troubled. Put your burden at the foot of My cross and be on your way doing My work. Do not deliberate. I call you to action. I run the show. I lead, you follow. Being with Me is being in a hot air balloon. You sail the skies free and unattached. The wind blows and you surrender to the wind. You do not try to control the wind. You surrender. The wind is the Spirit of God. It blows you about with the greatest love. You do not fret or fume because you have been assured that this course is directed by God. You feel the gentle breeze against your face. You take in the sights. You are free and full of joy because, in My balloon, you never have to worry.
I am He Who directs you, He Who powers you. I am He Who loves you. To My death I loved you. Would I not care for you this day? Embrace Me, My child. I am the God of Jacob and Joseph and your ancestors. All you hold on to here is momentary. Only the things of Me last forever. Let go. Surrender. Let go in your balloon. Smile and be lifted up above the troubled earth. You have the secret. You are powered by My love. My love is endless and unbounded. You I watch. You I protect. You I dote after.
Let go, child. Be at joy in My hot air balloon. You are in the balloon I have picked for you. I blow you about but you never fear. I am guarding you. You fly as on eagles' wings. You run and do not get weary. You are operated by Me and I know what is best for you. It is only in love I give all things to you. You stay fixed in Me and I operate you on your way.
Oh child, be lifted above the earth. Spend time alone with Me. Focusing on Me, not anything else, is what moves you high. The more you look downward to the details of this earth, the closer you get to it. The more you focus upward on Me, the more you sail. Burdens do not carry them. I do the deciding. When you think you are putting yourself in control, cut the lines. Let go entirely. Let yourself float and feel the peace in surrender. I never abandon you. I am at your side. Trust in Me and then you fly!
R. My life with Him is unfolding. It is like having a floor that suspends out into space. I keep walking and He holds me up. Like walking on water, I do not sink. I have dreamt many times I was skimming the water and only on the top. I don't fall in. No fear. It is so free and beautiful. Enjoy the sights!
Have no fear for I am with you until the end of time. I make all things work for those who love and serve the Lord. You go and live suspended in mid-air. No props. Does your life feel like this? This summer it was roller skates you were on. The floor felt shaky. Now the floor is gone and you are suspended in mid-air. You are being kept afloat by the fire of My love. I blow you gently. You may get a strong wind once in awhile, but you know that I am close by and you will be saved. Like walking on water!...

December 21, 1993
R. I sit in front of the tabernacle. I am sun bathing. I am then suspended above the earth. My ways are free and I fly and float about. A wind may come but my balloon does not fall. It may blow a little but it remains high. I am high in the Lord. I am above the world. I am free and unattached. I am transcended into the things of God. He propels my balloon and I worry not on my way. I am free and carefree. He has the helm. I am the recipient of His love.
When I do not come, the air goes out of my balloon and I fall to the ground. I am covered by its cloth and feel trapped in despair. Little things become big things. Big things are unable to be handled and Jesus waits and says, "Where are you, little one? You cannot operate. I am the Controller of your Balloon!"
You know nothing about My ways. To sail the skies you need the Sky Master. You are in a balloon and know nothing about them. You must come and get to power your balloon. Doing it yourself or without Me is disasterous. You are now on the ground, covered with cloth and you can't get out.
I free you up. I suspend you in the skies. I give you life. I give you wind. I give you sunshine. You go it alone and you have no light, no life, no wind, no sunshine. You are in trouble!
Little one, have you learned your lesson now? It took a painful tumble for you to learn the lesson. My words here are prescriptions for smooth sailing. Do you want to follow or try to go it alone?
Don't go alone, little one. You have no knowledge of balloons. You know nothing of the wind and the skies. You are your own worst enemy. To go alone is worse than not going at all. The more you operate without your supplies, the more you stumble. . .

December 29, 1993 - After Mass
R. Your soul is lifted to such heights in your hot air balloon! I am lifted, my spirit. The body is left behind on the earth.
Do not be concerned with what you are to wear and put on. I care about your soul. All things of the body wither and fade. The body is only the means by which you move about the earth. Your matter dies and decays. Your spirit moves on. All you truly are never dies.
R. I transport this bag of bones to realms I never dreamed possible and fly the skies. My spirit rises. My body remains fixed in its tracks. This is similar to death: the body stays behind. My soul never truly dies. It goes on to another place.
Ready yourself, My child, for the Kingdom of God is at hand and you will see sights you never dreamed of. The love of the Lord will be made clear and you will be engulfed in such peace. . .
Be only of the Spirit. Let go of all that keeps you attached to this world and soar the skies in your spirit. Your soul is transcended to a new realm of union with God. Let go to Him entirely. Surrender. Submission. Letting total trust in Him take place. You are a slave to His Love!

Jesus: ...Listen to Me saying, "Child, I love you, child, I am love, child, don't worry. Turn your burden over to Me." You can be free of worry if you let go. Sail away in your hot air balloon. Drop the package of worries at the foot of My cross and sail away in a trouble-free sky.
You are lifted to such heights in My love! I am so powerful. I can do all things. I am working in your life at every moment. I never leave you abandoned. Take this opportunity to get closer to Me.
It is in your trials you are taught how to trust. Do not curse the dark nights. Come to Me and let Me light your way. Take each trial as an opportunity to get closer to Me. Ascend the ladder to trust in the Lord. You develop trust a step at a time. Trust must be developed by you. Pray that you will learn all the lessons on trust I am sending you...

. . .You are he that wants one foot on the earth and one foot in the air. One foot will let go, but the other is not willing. I want both of your feet off the floor. That extra security you hold on to, just in case--that is what makes you worldly. I demand you let go entirely. You will then be free in My love. You will soar! As long as you think you are doing any of it yourself you stop yourself from the total freedom of letting go.
January 18, 1994 4:40 a.m.
Jesus:
So here you are and I am telling you in your heart to do something and you decide to ask someone else, or you procrastinate, or you want proof. I don't give proof! The beauty of total surrender is to have no proof and total trust in Him Who truly loves you! "Well, Lord, I know you are telling me this." Then, do it child! Let go! Feel the freedom of flying. You are totally free. I am running the balloons. You, child, let go. You totally surrendered to Me and at first you were afraid, but here you are flying and it is such freedom! Take in the sights. Be lighted on your way. Do you trust Me like that? If you don't, you are still in control. . .
I sail your balloon to heights you never dreamed possible. Let go. I run the balloon. There may be a little wind, but the freedom of sailing, of knowing you will never lose your way because Jesus is holding you up, what power Jesus has over all and He holds you up! If you go out on a limb for Him, He supports the limb. "Scary," you say? "Freedom," I say! When you trust your interior promptings this much, when you know God is this close that you will do whatever He calls you to, despite the world, that is freedom. You are My special messengers. The world is teaching some awfully sick messages. People are getting literally sick. Become selfless, let Me possess you so I can do what I need to through you.
...Let go, My children. I am waiting for you to let go with both of your feet. Jump into the arms of Him Who saves you. You let go, I catch you. God is there to hold you up lest you stumble and lose your way.
You walk the road to My love. It does not go down the solid roads the world has built. It is a road suspended in the sky. To know Me is to let go. Get off that road that appears to the world as solid. You know an earthquake can split that road in half. Walk My road with Me. That may mean the road seems to be missing at times. But you do not have your ducks in a row. Minute by minute you follow a road supported by Me. What freedom! To trust in Me, to do My work with support from Me is so free, but so uncertain for your earthly minds.
...How can I minister to this sick world if you choose to keep one foot on what the world calls "solid ground"? I want to possess you. I want to operate from your very being. I want to be in constant communion with you. I want you to hear the pipeline to Me every second you breathe. You will do this when you let go. I need to have full reign to operate from you as I see fit. Believe Me, I will not be doing what you would do.
When you see yourself moving selflessly ahead, doing My work, no questions asked, when you are listening to your information from within instead of from without, then your pipeline is open and working. Your answers are in your heart. You search for your answers in a senseless world, while you cover up the answers in your heart. Let Me possess you. Be selfless, be unattached. Operate as I am telling you in your heart. . .
I am Jesus. I am God. I am He Who wants to possess you and use you. When I do something, I do not make mistakes. Quit trying to do it yourself. Let Me operate you. Let Me do it all. Get both feet off the ground and say, "Lord, Lord, I give you My all. You use me, You run me, You possess me. I am Yours." Die to yourself and all the things of the world. You are he whom I want to possess and use to do My work. If you continue to do it your way, it is your doing a so-so job. Let go and let Me do My work as I want it done!
Don't ask questions. Don't jump back to the ground and say, "Oh, but it got scary out there with nothing under my feet. I just wanted to stand on solid ground." My ground is all that you must walk. You do not have a choice. My life in you is like being suspended in midair. It only feels good when you have decided that you will let go, that you know in your heart that trusting in Me is the only way. What freedom, to sail the sky and never ever look for security!
This is life in Me. You can't go to the world. Life with Me is like this. Life in the world is sick. You can't go there. You don't let go so you are not fully here. So, there is discontent in your heart. One foot on, one foot off. Surrender, My child. Let go with both feet and don't question! I will lift you up and lead you on your way. I need you to do My work in this world. If you become selfless and let Me possess you, you will operate just as I want you to because I will be doing the work...

August 28, 1993
My precious child, I long to be with you. I am here. You must find a way to be with Me every day in front of the tabernacle. If others distract you, you must find a way.
Satan is trying to stop My time with you. I am your true love and I long to spend time with you each day. Hold tight to My face. I am here little one. Don't ever doubt that again. My words are simple. They are truth. No one knows My intense love for them. I long for these moments with you. I am indeed here. If you have to come and be with Me during the day, I want these moments with you in front of the tabernacle. I am truly sitting here with you, Body and Soul.
I am Jesus, Son of the living God. Never doubt Me again. I have made myself known to you, My child. You offend Me so with your doubt and your busyness on other matters. You spend time fuming and fretting and feeling sorry for yourself when I am waiting here to be with you and talk to you. I don't care about other matters. I am very jealous. I want this time every day. You feel so bad inside when you are not alone with Me in church. That is where your comfort comes from. You are so upset inside when you do not spend it here. Don't you know these things? Being home is not the same. I am truly present in the tabernacle. You needn't run anywhere. You have a key to the church. I love you. I don't want to remind you that this is where it all is. I want you to love Me so much you don't even think you can function without time alone with Me in church. Come to Me every day. You do not go a day without food. You can't go a day without time absolutely alone with Me. If you do, it will be a disaster. Have you not felt the gnawing in your heart when you didn't do it yesterday? You crave this time alone and your tears are from not being alone with Him Whom you truly love.
I am Jesus Christ, Son of the one true God. I have chosen you to write these messages which are meant for all and you are busy-doing what, My child? Did you not cry and feel bad most of yesterday? This is your proof. You knew you wanted to be with Me here so badly you almost drove back out. You have to be alone with Me. In front of the tabernacle is best. I am the living God and I am in the tabernacle. You must be here or you will be so lost inside. Spend time with Me, My child. Nothing else matters. I am the one, true God and you shall not have other gods before Me. I command this because this is how you were created and this makes you most happy. Come to Me all you who labor and I will give you rest. I will give you peace, not as this world gives you peace, but My peace, which only I can give.
The gift I give to you, My child, is My Son. Would you refuse My gift? He waits for you every day and where do you go-to the grocery?- to do your wash? What do you do, child?
I am waiting for you. Would you keep Me waiting and turn your back? Is one hour too much for the Son of God? I give you 24 hours. One hour is so little to ask. This is where your peace lies. All else is fruitless.
Not one day should be spent without one hour of private prayer with Me, preferably in the church in front of the tabernacle. Come to Me My little babies. I want to comfort you. I want to care for you. You are all mixed up with your priorities. I grow tired that you don't listen and tell others of My great and glorious love for all My children. This is your main goal. Pray with Me and spread My intense love for all My children. Yes, and I will give you all you need, child. Quit thinking you have to do other things. You have to be with Me and I will make it all work out. I want all to know of My intense love for My children. I died that you might live, not in this world, but in the world to come. I am the way, the truth and the light. All else is useless if it is not rooted in Me and for My work. Time is very short, little one. Listen to My words. You have wasted enough time. Don't delay. All must know of My love for them. It is in Me that they are made whole. Nothing else matters, My child.

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.
