August 27, 2014 - Feast of St. Monica

                R. Pray for Dan & pray for healing for all of us.

 

Matthew 23: 27-32

    ‘Alas for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs that look handsome on the outside, but inside are full of the bones of the dead and every kind of corruption. In just the same way, from the outside you look upright, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

    'Alas for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build the sepulchres of the prophets and decorate the tombs of the upright, saying, "We would never have joined in shedding the blood of the prophets, had we lived in our ancestors' day." So! Your own evidence tells against you! You are the children of those who murdered the prophets! Very well then, finish off the work that your ancestors began.

Mary's Message
from the Rosary of August 27, 1996

Mary:  I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.

The Resurrection

1. R. Do we see the withered body of Jesus on the cross, the death of the Almighty God? And Jesus is locked in the tomb for three days. We have been called on a great mission. We have been tried and tested and we have suffered, but Jesus tells us that in the death, there is the resurrection. In the darkest tunnel, there is the brightest light. We must stay focused on Him, for He will not leave us. He is guarding our every breath and our every heartbeat. There are many tunnels of darkness that we have traveled on our journey to spread His love to this world, but through all of these tunnels, there was the light at the end of the tunnel. We see Jesus, His withered body as He hung on the cross, and we see His glorified body as He came from the tomb. The wounds in His hands and His feet bloodied on the cross. The wounds in His hands, in His feet, in His side, glorified wounds as He rose from the dead. This is how our life is, a constant death and resurrection. We struggle, but at the end of the tunnel, He gives to us a deeper sharing in His life. I love You, Jesus. We thank You for the struggle, for it was  abundant life, that You revealed to us teachings about Yourself. We love You. We love You. We love You. Glorified Christ, we see You adorned in white and glistening, and we know that if we stay fixed in You that we too will share more abundantly in Your life.

2. R. See Mary as she cries outside of the tomb of her Son, and think of the joy in the heart of Mary when she sees Him after the Resurrection. O heart of Mary that suffered so many sorrows and so many joys, take us into your heart that we may share more in the love of Jesus as you loved Him.

3. Jesus: I impart to you great graces in this rosary that you will come to My Heart, that you will know My love. You must open your heart and let Me fill your heart with My love. Do not focus on any of the distractions that satan has created in your mind, for I am with you in a special way, and I will touch your heart if you put aside those distractions and focus on My love. I am the Almighty God, all powerful, and I am guarding you, My beloved apostles. Each one of you have been called here. This is an important mission for the renewal of the Church and the world. You do not comprehend the immensity of this mission. I beg you at this moment to come to My Heart and let Me bathe you in My love. I love you. I love you. I love you. This is a special night for our love affair, My dear ones. You will remember this night and how I touched your heart in a special way. I am Jesus, the Savior of the world. I love you, My special, chosen ones.

4. R. How are you in this world today? Are you carrying out the messages of Christ’s love?

5. R. I look at myself, and I see myself, so many times, so anxious and worried. I want, My beloved Jesus, to be as You want me to be, but I am realizing more and more that this depends on the grace that You give to me and if I cooperate with Your grace. Give me this grace. Dear Holy Spirit, work within the heart of my Mother to mold me more and more into the image and likeness of Jesus, for I know that I am totally dependent on You. Of myself, I fall and I am wretched. I love You, my beloved God. I want to have a soul that is glistening and white and pure, but it is only through Your grace that I will be this way. I give myself to You. I give myself to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, and I ask the Holy Spirit to work within her heart to sanctify me.

6. Jesus: You will be made holy as you surrender, as you give yourselves to Our Hearts. It is in dwelling in Our Hearts that you are sanctified, that you will be the soldiers of love marching on this cold earth. Many hearts in the world today have turned cold. You will march across this earth, and they will be lighted by the fire of My love.

7. R. There will be the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of her Immaculate Heart. How will this be? Will it come in peace, or will it come with much suffering? As the Shepherds of Christ Movement spreads across this earth, as hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the fire of His love will spread across this earth, and Mary promised at Fatima that if hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, if there are a sufficient number of hearts consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will have peace.

8. R. Jesus has risen. He is victorious. This is the good news. The good news is that we have been called here as His apostles, His shepherds in the Shepherds of Christ Movement to carry His messages of love to the world. As hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will proceed in peace.

9. R. O Heart of Jesus, I give You myself.

10. R. The victory has been won. Let us give our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. It is in giving ourselves in love to Jesus and to Mary that we will unite with the Almighty God in such great love.

Song: Come Holy Spirit

Jesus: I am alive. I am alive. I am alive, and I live in your heart. Put aside all of the differences in your heart, and let Me live in this world in you.

 

The Ascension

1. R. These are the Glorious Mysteries. The victory has been won. The Almighty God died on a cross, but He rose on the third day.

2. Hail Mary

3. R. Jesus raised His arms and He ascended into heaven, and a cloud took Him from their sight.

4. Jesus: I no longer walk this earth, My beloved ones. I live in your heart. You must open your heart at this moment and let Me fill you with My love. So as you are in your hearts, you will be in this world. I am alive. I am alive. I am alive, and I live in you. Who are you that the Almighty God lives in you?

5. Jesus: Do you come to Me and unite in the Eucharist? Do you come to Me in prayer and unite in your heart? And then you go to the world, My beloved ones, and you forget about Me. You are to carry My light into the darkness. As you operate in this world today, I want to live in you. You must carry My light into the darkness. Do not be afraid to go into the darkness, but My life must be alive in your hearts. Come to Me and I will fill you with My life. When you talk to your friends, you must be rooted in Me. So many of you forget about Me when you leave the church. I am in your heart at this moment. I am in your heart when you talk to others. I live in you, and My life flows through you. I want to live in this world. You must dwell in My Heart at every moment. The more you come to Me, the more you pray that you will dwell in My Heart, the more I will give you this grace to constantly dwell in My Heart in all of your activities. I live in this world in you. You must talk to Me all through the day, and tell Me how you love Me. Tell Me of your problems. Tell Me of your thoughts. Your thoughts become one with Me. I live in you. I will light the darkness through you.

6. Jesus: Do you fall? Are you disappointed, My dear ones, when you fail? You must realize that you are imperfect. You must come to the heart of My Mother. Her heart is pure. She will place you in the deepest chamber of My Heart. Tell Me when you have sinned. Tell Me you are sorry. The devil continues to tempt you to feel down-hearted. You must admit your error, and come to the heart of My Mother. It is in admitting your error and coming to her heart, that you will constantly dwell in My Heart. For the devil tells you once you have fallen that you should be down-hearted. Say  take you to My Heart, and you will dwell in her pure heart. There is not a reason why you should stay away from My Heart. If you have sinned, if you have fallen, you must say you are sorry and go to the heart of My Mother.

7. Jesus: I am alive. I am alive. I am alive. I no longer walk this earth; I live in you, and you act as a channel of this life to this world that is hurting and in pain. Come and dwell in My Heart.

8. R. Jesus ascended into heaven, and He left behind the apostles to carry out His work. This day, we are truly called His apostles, His apostles to go into the new era for the renewal of the Church and the world. This is a most important mission that He has called us to. You have been called, and you have been chosen by the Almighty God.

9. R. We see the plan of the Father unfold in the life of Mary. We see the angel appear to Mary, and we see Mary crowned “Queen of Heaven and Earth”. This is the same plan. We are the apostles of this era. We have been chosen, and He is calling us to follow Him.

10. Song: I come to you with greatest love. I am your loving Savior. I am your God. I died for you. I come to you this day.

Song: Come Holy Ghost

 

The Descent of the Holy Spirit

1. R. And they were gathered in the upper room, and there was like a gigantic wind and there appeared over their heads parted tongues of fire. And they were filled with the Holy Spirit, and they began to speak in foreign tongues as the Holy Spirit prompted them to speak.

2. R. These were the Apostles that were filled with fear, that locked themselves in the room, Peter, head of the Church, that denied our Lord. These were the Apostles. Jesus shows us how they were and how they fell and how they were weak, but when the Holy Spirit descended upon them, they were filled with the fire of God’s love. They were not afraid. They were fearless, and they went forth into the world to preach the Gospel message with fire.

3. Jesus: My love is fire, My beloved ones. My Heart is on-fire for the love of you. Will you open your heart and let Me fill you with this fire. It is a burning fire. It is the biggest fire. No one can put out the fire in the Heart of Jesus. My Heart will forever burn with this fire. What have you to fear when I am the Almighty God, and I give to you My heart filled with this fire that will never end. Will the souls of this earth be comforted by this fire, the fire that you will spread across the earth, or will you see the souls of your brother march into the fires of hell? I am Jesus. I am calling you. I am begging you to answer this call, for every moment in your life is so important, for souls are at stake. This is a mostimportant mission, for you are My modern day apostles that will carry the message of My love into this world. And the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph when hearts are on-fire for the love of God. I love you. I love you. I love you. I am alive, and I live this day.

4. Jesus: Do not be afraid, My beloved apostles, for I am counting on you. I have called you here for I knew you would answer this call. I am giving to you a special grace at this moment. Open your heart and let Me fill you with fire. I want to be one in you, to live in you, to love you. I want you to feel My presence within your heart, the presence ofthe Almighty God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, that your heart is on-fire for the love of God. It is presence, My beloved ones. You must come to Me. You must sit after Communion and in front of the tabernacle, and I will give you My love. I am Jesus. I am mighty. I am God.

5. Jesus: Why are you afraid? Why are you afraid; I have all the power, My dear ones? I will let you crawl on your stomach to Me, for you will know that you are dependent on Me. It is in this dependency that you will carry this love to the world, for it takes My might working within you. But I have allowed you to suffer to see that you are dependent on Me. I am God. You are My beloved one. I give you all that you need. You must surrender and give yourself to Me.

6. Jesus: It is in your surrender that I unite to you with such love. I give Myself to you. To have this union with Me, you must give yourself to Me. You hold back, My dear one. I love you so. When you are taunted by Satan, do not give into the tauntings in your mind to divide you. This is to stop you in your work. Each day lost, many souls will be lost because of the importance of this mission. I am giving to you abundant graces that you will join in My Heart. In all of your prayers united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, you will help in the work of redemption. You must, when you are taunted by satan, not give into these tauntings. You must focus on My love, and tell Me how you love Me. Satan will work on you. He will work on you and work on you because so many souls will be helped through your efforts. You are helping in the work of redemption. Each day is a large amount of time, and satan knows this. Do not give in to his tauntings to divide you and to get you bowed down. I am with you. I am so close to you. Do you feel My presence? Do you know I am watching and guarding you? You must come to My Heart. You stand on the outside, and you look up at Me. And satan is attempting to stop you.

7. Song: Fill our hearts with Your fire. Fill our hearts with Your fire.

8. R. I had a vision of the biggest fire against the blackest night, and there was a little fireman in front with a little hose, and he could not extinguish the fire in any way. This was the fire of the Heart of Jesus. It is a mighty force, so powerful that it cannot be extinguished by anything that any man can do. He is uniting us to this fire. Why do we fear when we are united in such oneness to the Heart of Jesus?

9. Song: Give me Your Heart, O Jesus, give me a heart like yours. Teach me to love You with this new heart. O, I know little of how to love You. Create in me, O precious Savior, this special heart.

10. R. And the apostles were filled with the fire of God’s love. They were not afraid. They were locked in prison, and they proceeded steadfastly ahead. They got out of prison singing. Fill our hearts, O Holy Spirit, with the fire of God’s love, that we will not give in to the tauntings of satan, that when we are pressed on that we will know the fire of God’s love and proceed steadfastly ahead, for many, many souls are at stake, and You have given to us a great mission.

Jesus: My dear, dear, beloved ones, I have called each one of you in this room. Do not underestimate what you will do when you dwell in My Heart, for I magnify all of your efforts, and the fire of My love will spread across the earth. The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. You must come to My Heart, and you will be lead.

 

The Assumption

1. Jesus: I love you. I love you. I love you, and I give to you, My sweet ones, My Mother.

2. R. We look up at Mary, and we say, “Mary, help us. Mary, we beg you to help us. Mary, it is so hard. We want to do the work of Jesus, and it is so hard.” And Mary looked down at me, when she appeared to me in the Sorrowful Mother statue, and she said, “My dear child, come to my heart. You stand outside and you plead and you beg, and the devil is there to attack you. When you come to my heart, to my spiritual womb, I crush the devil with my heel. You must come and dwell in my heart. Come to my womb as an embryo in the womb of their mother, for they are not afraid. They are secure. I am Mary, your Mother, and I am waiting for you to come, for I will protect you against the terrors of the night.”

3. R. I go to the heart of Mary as a little baby within the womb of their mother, and I know that I am not afraid of anything, for there is no fear. That is how it is in heaven; there is no fear. There is perfect peace. We are free from all anxieties. As the hot air balloon ascends into the heavens, we are free from all those things on the earth below. This is how it is in the womb of our Mother. She truly protects us. It is a matter of letting go. Will we focus on these things that are holding us bound, or will we realize that the Almighty God is really there in our every breath and heartbeat and trust Him. Even though we do not understand and we want to worry, will we let go and let God do it?

4. Jesus: You must surrender, My beloved ones. You must go to the heart of My Mother, for you will be taunted by the evil one. You will be taunted continuously because of the mission that you have been called to. It is only in her heart that you will be protected from the evil one, for her heel will crush his head.

5. R. There appeared in the sky a woman clothed in the sun, and the moon was under her feet, and there were twelve stars about her head. We are the children of light that dwell within the heart of our Mother. It is in her heart, that we are formed into these children of light, for she is clothed with the sun, and the moon is under her feet. The darkness is beneath her as she crushes the evil one with her heel. And surrounding her head are twelve stars.

Jesus: You are My stars. You are My apostles, My apostles that will light the darkness. As stars, you will shine in the darkest night, for you are the children of light. Come to the womb of My Mother and be filled with her light. She is the Lady of Light. You are the children of light. You will march across this earth as a little army spreading the light of the Almighty God, the fire of My love across the earth. And the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph as you carry out the messages of My love to this world.

6. R. The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign when hearts fervently love Jesus.

7. R. The Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph when we give our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and fervently love these Hearts. It is in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, when people consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, that we will have peace and love on the earth. We have been called to a great mission. It is most important that we see that what we do will help many souls.

8. Mary’s Message as Received in the Rosary.

Mary: I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.

9. Song: O Lady of Light, shining so bright, be with us this day, guiding our way, O Lady, O Lady of Light.

Mary: I appear to you as Our Mother of Sorrows.

10. Hail Mary

 

The Coronation

1. R. We see the angel appear to Mary, and we see the plan of the Father unfold in her life as she complied always to the will of the Father. And we see her taken into heaven and crowned “Queen of Heaven and Earth”, but do we see the plan as it unfolds in our own life, from the day we were born how we have been guarded and watched, how He has led us to this point, how He has taught us and given us everything that we need to be able to carry out this mission, for many souls are at stake.

2. R. Do you see how you all fit as pieces into the puzzle, how you have been given the talents from the Almighty God to carry out this plan? Each one of you, uniquely special, you will help in the salvation of many souls.

3. Song: From the day you were born

4. R. And the angel appeared to Mary and she was afraid, but he told her, “Do not be afraid, Mary.” And he asked her to be the Mother of God, and we see Mary how her heart was pierced with a sword and how she struggled, but we see how she was taken into heaven and crowned “Queen of Heaven and Earth”. Look at our life. We see ourselves as little babies coming into this world. We see all the things that we learned and all that we have been taught, but did we see the hand of God throughout our whole life forming us so that we would be able to carry out this great mission that He has called us to today?

Jesus: You are each little pieces to the puzzle, so important and so precious to Me. Together you make up the whole picture. You must surrender. You will not bump heads, My beloved ones. You must do the will of the Father.

5. Hail Mary

6. Hail Mary

7. Revelation 12:1

Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.

R. We are the stars that will shine in the dark night with the fire of His love. We are the children of light. Mary is bringing us forth in her womb. We are saturated with His life and with His light as we dwell in her womb and sanctified through the Holy Spirit with the fire of God’s love. We are children of light for we are saturated with the fire of His love. It is the brightest light. It is a fire that will not be extinguished. It is a fire that will spread across the earth, we are His instruments to do His work, as He operates through us, as we become one in Him.

8. R. And there will be that day when we are united in such union with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that we know the Almighty God. There will be no wanting. There will be no fear and no anxiety. We will be consumed by the love of God. We will be satisfied and full in heaven.

9. Song: May the angels lead you into paradise

Jesus: Know My presence, My dear ones. Sit with Me and focus on this presence, for I am alive, and I am with you. As you feel united with the person next to you; focus on the presence of the Almighty God within your heart. Focus on My presence as you sit in front of the tabernacle. Focus on God, truly present with you in the Holy Eucharist in communion.

10. Jesus: I am a Person. I am alive, and I love you.

                R. Are we becoming a fear culture?

Pray For The Success Of The Priestly Newsletter - Shepherds of Christ

R. The following is the first official message I received before the statue of Mary at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. It is a personal message for Father Carter.

Mary: (in front of the glowing statue of Our Lady of Sorrows) I am the Immaculate Heart. My Heart is glowing for love of all my beloved children. I am your most loving Mother. I am with you this day. Pray for the success of the priestly newsletter Shepherds of Christ. I am guarding your way. You will receive such graces to accomplish this task! Grace from God is so abundantly bestowed on you and will lead to the success of this endeavor! Pray for this cause at the Center. The priests will lead the people to the love of My beloved Son. This is no little task. It will take many prayers and graces. Pray hard, little one. Your prayers will change many hearts.

I am Mary, your Immaculate Mother. I bring this message to My beloved priest-son.

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

        

     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.

 
 

"My God, I believe, I adore, I hope and I love You! I ask pardon of You for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope and do not love You."
