August 5th Holy Spirit Novena
Scripture selection is Day 1 Period I.

The Novena Rosary Mysteries  
for August 5th are Sorrowful.

     


Please pray for all urgent intentions.

   

 

  

  

        

    

This explanation of Blue Book 6 came out of the March 17th, 1995 Blue Book Meeting.

 

The Sixth Book

He Calls Us to Action

R.  This book is a call to action. He gives us His love and He sends us into the world to spread this love to others. We cannot hold back. We need to pray to the Holy Spirit to enlighten us and to give us His courage to carry out the plan of the Father. Holy Spirit transform us from fear to fearlessness. He is one in us. Minute-by-minute, second-by-second, He provides for our needs. Hear His soft voice all through the day say, I love you, I love you, I love you.

    He is the bridegroom of our soul. Enter into such union with Him through His pierced side and dwell deeply in His Most Sacred Heart. As St. Paul said (Gal. 2: 20): "yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me."

    We are one body in Christ. How can I be one in Him and not love you when you are one with Him?

    He talks about the Church, the Priests, and how we are His apostles to spread His love into this world - how we must pray for our priests and one another, pray for the souls in purgatory, pray for the whole Church in union with the Masses being offered throughout the world.

  

Song:  I Love You Jesus

Age of the Two Hearts

Jesus: "My beloved priest-companion, I have allowed you to experience in extraordinary fashion the riches contained in My Heart and My Mother's Heart. I desire that you tell all My people about these riches. I desire that My people consecrate themselves to My Sacred Heart and to Mary's Immaculate Heart. My people are living in the beginnings of the age of the Two Hearts.

    "After the time of the purification is completed, this new era of the Church and the world will become firmly established. This era will be characterized by the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. All those who consecrate themselves to My Heart and to My Mother's Heart will help to establish this glorious new age. I am Lord and Master. Please listen to My urgent request. Within Our Hearts you will experience the love and security, the peace and the joy, which you all desire. I love My people with a tremendous love, and in My love I give them this message!"

From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter

  

 

R.  Before the 17th meeting in January of 1995, I had received the following vision when at Mass at the Cathedral of Saint Peter in Chains. It was either late December, 1994 or early January, 1995. I drew the picture in the notebook.

It looks as follows:

vision
when at Mass at the Cathedral of Saint Peter in Chains

The face was flesh colored, but I could not see the features. The gown was white with a square neck.

The next day Jesus told me it was Father Carter. This vision along with another vision I had received about the same time appeared on the 17th book in January 1995.

The other vision was a church that looked similar to our church in China, Indiana, and in the front of the church was a gigantic Host with tremendous light coming forth from it.

On the cover was a Shepherd and the world.

The vision of the church looked like this:

vision

There was a message at this meeting. The message said that THE POWER is in the Eucharist.
 

 

January 1, 1995

Rest in Jesus' Heart

R. Such intense longing and yearning for God my heart hurt. I see my heart going in Jesus' Heart and my heart must be put in the endless abyss of His love, then my ache is quieted.

    Such intense anguish, put my heart in Jesus' Heart and the pain abates.

Jesus' Sacred Heart is open, open so big, this is what He wanted all along for me to put my heart in His.

    This is the only relief

    Go rest in His Heart

Jesus:  My Heart is open and on fire just for you! Come rest in My Heart, I LOVE YOU!

R. Ache abates when I go in His Heart.

R. His Heart is available, I can be one in His Heart.

    Especially around the Eucharist, my heart felt as if it would break.

    To let go to Him — to pray for the grace to unite to His Sacred Heart — I want to dwell in Jesus' Heart, to unite in our hearts, to be dropped into the abyss of this great open Heart on fire and ablaze for love of me.

     For relief I felt comforted in putting my heart in His.

    Now I rest in your heart, oh my beloved, the uniting of the two Hearts —

    Mary and His Heart are so closely united.

    Maybe the next step is Mary placing me so deeply, so deeply into Jesus' loving Heart.

Song:  Your Presence Pervades My Soul

The Holy Spirit

Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"

Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us.   Excerpt from Tell My People

Jesus:  Praise God, sing songs, now is the time for rejoicing, My time is near at hand. First, there will be a time of purification and men's hearts will then turn to God. Oh My beloved ones, I am so close to you. You see so little, you are so blind and it is right before your eyes. Look at My Church, you are members of one body, I am the head of My Church. Harken to Me to stay fixed in Me. Live in the Spirit. Let the Holy Spirit fill you and lead you to greater life in Me.

Then we shall no longer be children, or tossed one way and another, and carried hither and thither by every new gust of teaching, at the mercy of all the tricks people play and their unscrupulousness in deliberate deception. If we live by the truth and in love, we shall grow completely into Christ, who is the head by whom the whole Body is fitted and joined together, every joint adding its own strength, for each individual part to work according to its function. So the body grows until it has built itself up in love.  Ephesians 4: 14-16

For as with the human body which is a unity although it has many parts—all the parts of the body, though many, still making up one single body—so it is with Christ. We were baptised into one body in a single Spirit, Jews as well as Greeks, slaves as well as free men, and we were all given the same Spirit to drink.  1 Corinthians 12: 12-13

He is the image of the unseen God, the first–born of all creation, for in him were created all things in heaven and on earth: everything visible and everything invisible, thrones, ruling forces, sovereignties, powers—all things were created through him and for him. He exists before all things and in him all things hold together, and he is the Head of the Body, that is, the Church. He is the Beginning, the first–born from the dead, so that he should be supreme in every way; because God wanted all fullness to be found in him and through him to reconcile all things to him, everything in heaven and everything on earth, by making peace through his death on the cross.  Colossians 1: 15-20

Jesus:  Allow the Spirit to move in you, as you operate, you operate as God has planned by following God's will. Make yourself selfless and totally surrender yourself to the will of God. Let the Spirit of God move in you. Oh My beloved ones, see with the vision of God. I give to you such graces and you in your stubbornness do your own will. I am the way, I am the truth, I am the life. I impart to you a sharing in My Divine Life through baptism. I give you a special sharing of My Divine Love. Be open in your heart, be pure, lift your minds and hearts up to God. You are My soldiers to spread the love of God, you cannot underestimate what one soul fixed on Me can do for this world. My force is Mighty, the Spirit wants to fill you, the Father is forever with you. Oh children, oh children, how ornery is your ways, how simple My ways. My way is the way of love. You are united in Me.

    The Church is the Body of Christ. One of the truths that is emphasized by this concept is the idea of community. The communion that binds the members of the Church together is, in turn, connected with that wider idea of community that embraces the whole of mankind....  Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward J. Carter

Jesus:  Your brothers are your brothers, love and cherish them, it is in loving them that you love Me. See Me in their eyes. See the Creation of the Father. See Me beaten, bloodied and bruised for love of them. See My children. You walk this barren desert with such blindness. My land is brimming with milk and honey. My life, I impart to you this day, open your hearts and let My love live in you. Oh beloved ones, pray for more and more grace, pray the Prayer for Union with Jesus. I am your God, I come to you this day and give to you My greatest love, My Heart burning and on fire, come and rest in My Heart, it is open and waiting, longing for you. I am Jesus, your God, I love you so much.

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

      

January 5, 1995 - 6:45 a.m.

See the Big Picture

Jesus: My dear child,
I want you to see the big picture. My messages are not for two or three. My messages are for all souls. Souls are at stake. You contain the mighty medicine to draw men's hearts back to My burning love. I am Jesus. Put everything aside and focus only on Me talking to you.

    The world is hurting. Men's hearts are so cold. They do not see beyond themselves. They do not see that God is with them this day. Little one, you were created to know, love and serve God. God must be first in your life. Many in your country have denied the existence of God. The batting of an eye, the dropping of a pin, and your life is over.

    See with the eyes of God. See with the vision of God. God is eternal, God sees time as one. You do not see because you do not pray for grace.

    You see with limited vision. You think with a human mind. You use a human mind to judge the things of God. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I came to this world to lead all men to heaven. I come to you this day. Do you think God comes to talk to a few? I came to lead all souls to everlasting happiness.

    Pray for vision. I see not a little town, I see all men, yet, I love each soul so uniquely. You do not understand the mind of God. You do not see as I see. I ask you to give My love to all. You see a few and love a few. You are one body, all men are your brothers. I came to give My Life to all men.

    You must pray for vision and grace to do the will of the Father. My plan is unfolding and it depends on you. One person fixed on the love of God can radiate such might and power.

    You cannot light the city without My power. My power I pour out to you in the Eucharist. My power I pour out to you when you sit in front of My tabernacle. You cannot do it without My might, My power. I am the Power, I am your All.. You see yourself as controlling so many things and being so strong. Your power comes from Me. To do the work I am calling you to, you must have the might of God. You see yourself with a little area and a little job. I am calling you to love all. I am calling you to radiate love. I am calling you to light up the world with My love. I am calling you to make a difference in the lives of so many souls. Your love given through Me will change so many hearts.

    Pray to the Spirit to transform your hearts to be more and more like Mine. Go to Mary and unite with Our Hearts. The more you unite to Our Hearts, the more the Spirit pours out His grace to transform your hearts. You do not ask for that life I want to give you. My Life, My grace, My vision, I pour out to you in the Eucharist. Oh, children, you are so blind. I speak to you, your Mother comes and appears and you see only in front of your face.

    I come to you this day to deliver this message. Open your hearts to My love. Come to Me at Mass and in Communion with this open heart to receive divine love and divine life. Sit in front of Me in the tabernacle. I beg you. Times are coming when the things you hold onto so tightly will wither in front of your faces.

    You are one body in Christ. See the big picture. See the world. See heaven. See all souls living and dead. See the Church as one. See, My children. You in your ways hold onto such little things. You see only in front of your faces.

    I call, I knock, My Mother appears and calls each of you here this day. You are soldiers in My army to lead souls to My love. I need strong soldiers. I am fortifying you with My Body and Blood. I give to you this day in the Eucharist. You will radiate with the love of God when you turn your hearts to the Eucharist. I am present no less than the day I hung on the cross. You look for little signs and Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is here. I am here in My Divinity and Humanity in the Eucharist as present as the day I died on the cross, as the day I walked on Calvary, as the day I was born in Bethlehem. I wait in the tabernacle to fortify you with your supplies to spread My love. You do not see because you do not come for your supplies.

    Please take Me seriously. Time is short. You need to turn to My Eucharistic Heart. Come to this Center and pray. Come to My tabernacle. Attend Mass and Communion.

    Be with Me after Communion. How eagerly I wait to be with you. Pray the rosary with the meditations I have given you. Be there in the lives of Jesus and Mary as you pray the rosary. Pray to the Spirit. All day pray to the Spirit to fill you with the fire of His love. Pray all day for Him to transform you more and more into My image. Pray all day to be soldiers in My army spreading My love to this world. I call you this day. Will you answer Me?

                 

  

January 5, 1995 - Before the Exposed Eucharist after Communion

The Church is the Body of Christ

Tabernacle

Christ —
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit

 

  

R. Heard at Mass

Live in the Spirit

I saw a vision — church was shaped
    as a tabernacle in the center
    was the host.

The Church is the Body of Christ. One of the truths that is emphasized by this concept is the idea of community. The communion that binds the members of the Church together is, in turn, connected with that wider idea of community that embraces the whole of mankind....  Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward J. Carter

R. The Church is the Body of Christ

    Jesus is the Head.
    We are all one in Him. See the
    big picture, we cannot cut ourselves
    off from one member. We must be
    totally open to Him.

The Spirit is the love between the Father
    and the Son. The Spirit is He who
    transforms us more and more into
    the image of Jesus which leads
    us to the Father.

The Holy Spirit

Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"

Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us.   Excerpt from Tell My People

R. Let the Spirit Move in us.

    Wake us up oh Spirit, let us see that God is here this day and in our midst.

    Move us, open us, let us see with the vision you impart to us,
    Dear Holy Spirit move in the people of the Church.

    The Spirit is life, the Church is alive with this Spirit, we must be open to let Him move in us.

    Fill us with the FIRE of your love. Open our hearts. Let us feel the Spirit, His love and His life in us.

    Holy Spirit move in us.

    Move us, open us, that we may see that Jesus Christ the Son of God, came and lived among us and is here this day.

    Waken our hearts to know God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, dwelling in such a special way in the soul filled with God's grace.

    Who, who are we that God loves us so much?

    See the greatness of God, His might, God cares for us with such great love, every detail of our heart He ponders.

    We do not understand this. God loves us so much. God is a Supreme Being. We must let go and surrender to God who created us and God loves us so abundantly THIS DAY.

    The fire of His love, Oh Spirit of God — COME ALIVE IN US LET US FEEL the love and life of the DIVINE GOD within our hearts.

    Impart to us in abundance your grace, fill us with your fire, so that we may be filled more and more with your grace.

Song:  Spirit of the Living God

Song:  Spirit Song

    Oh Holy Spirit fill us.  

Galatians 2: 19-20

I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me. The life that I am now living, subject to the limitation of human nature, I am living in faith, faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.

R. The Spirit fills my soul, God's presence pervades my soul, I am alive with His life, it is the life of the one true God.

    Full, Full of life God fills me with this life more and more. I become one in Him, where I was lost and afraid, I am filled more with His life, permeating my very being.

    Oh God I love you —

    Who am I that you come and dwell in me?

    I was filled with the Spirit. I was filled with God's love. Mary was filled with the Spirit, when she proclaimed the Magnificat. My soul is filled with His life and I sing the song of the soul. 

Luke 1: 46-55

And Mary said:

My soul proclaims
    the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
    in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
    the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
    all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
    has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
    to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
    from their thrones
        and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
    sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
    of Israel his servant,
        mindful of his faithful love
—according to the promise
    he made to our ancestors—
of his mercy to Abraham
    and to his descendants for ever.

R. Glory, Glory is His Name, He's mighty and worthy of all love and praise, bow before God. God is present in the exposed Eucharist here and I who am a lowly creature, have been raised to such heights at His presence.

    Alleluia, praise the Lord, our God, Holiest in the Heights at His name all knees must bend in worship, for He is God, one true, and mighty and worthy of the highest praise.

    Oh my God, I scarce can stand such the joy of your presence, no words to describe this — the realization that you are present and you are God, such ecstasy to behold your presence, my God, my God, my heart feels as if it will burst with fullness. Oh my God, my God take me to the heights of your presence, this is LIFE, this is vibrancy, no words to describe this presence of You my God, my all, my precious God. All praise and honor to you, Shout it from the roof, dance in the streets for He is GOD!! Truly present and Here this very DAY! ALLELUIA — SING, SING SONGS OF JOY, let your hearts chant songs of praise for He is mighty and worthy of all honor and praise, Alleluia.

    I feel as if my heart will explode, will burst with the realization that God is truly present, God is here Alleluia!! Praise this God, this good God who loves and cares for us, this day, Alleluia. Sing out, Shout into the night. He is here, He has died, He is risen and Jesus Christ the Son of God comes to earth and longs for our love. Father, Son and Holy Spirit are present in this room. Alleluia!

Sing:  Your Presence Pervades My Soul

Sing:  Glory, Glory, Glory Lord

                

From Tell My People

 

Build up My Church

Jesus: "My beloved friend, remind My people that the Church was born from My Heart, pierced with the soldier's lance on Calvary. From My pierced Heart the Church with her sacraments was born. Two of these sacraments, the Eucharist and Baptism, were symbolized by the Blood and Water which flowed forth from My pierced side.

"As the Church was born from My pierced Heart, so does the Church's life grow from the graces I continually give her from My pierced Heart—this Heart which is now glorified. "I call all the members of My Church to help build up My Body, the Church, by coming to My pierced Heart. United to My Heart, and dwelling within It, I will give to each one the light and strength to carry out My Father's will in the building up of My Church.

"Mary is Mother and Model of the Church. As 'Mother of the Church,' she intercedes for all the graces the members need to contribute to the building up of My Church. As Model—as perfect imitator of Me—she shows the children of the Church how all, individually and collectively, are to be increasingly formed in My image. As all come to My Heart for the building up of the Church, let them do so united to the Heart of Mary.

"My Church is experiencing critical and very difficult times. There are many divisions. There are many false teachings, including some put forth by certain theologians. These false teachings occur because those responsible are not in proper union with My vicar, the Pope, and the Church Magisterium. I want all My children to pray daily for the cure of the many and serious ills of the Church. With increased prayer and sacrifices for the health of the Church, that day will soon come when the Church will be purified and revitalized. When that day comes, the Church will be a light to all nations as never before. When that day comes, the renewed Church will be characterized by the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. Thus the message of Fatima will have reached fulfillment.

"I am Lord and Master. I request that all My people listen to My words and respond to them. I love My people with a tremendous love, and in this great love I give them this message!"

Reflection: In speaking of the Church, St. Paul tells us:

"Just as a human body, though it is made up of many parts, is a single unit because all these parts, though many, make one body, so it is with Christ. In the one Spirit we were all baptized, Jews as well as Greeks, slaves as well as citizens, and one Spirit was given to us all to drink....

"Now you together are Christ's body; but each of you is a different part of It. In the Church, God has given the first place to apostles, the second to prophets, the third to teachers; after them, miracles, and after them the gift of healing; helpers, good leaders, those with many languages. Are all of them apostles, or all of them prophets, or all of them teachers? Do they all have the gift of miracles, or all have the gift of healing? Do all speak strange languages, and all interpret them?" (1 Corinthians 12:12-30).

In His message above, Jesus reminds all of us that we have a responsibility to help in the building up of the Church. St. Paul reminds us that we each have our own role. He names many of these roles and there are many who share in them. For example, there are many teachers of various kinds in the Church. But each teaches according to his or her personal uniqueness. Consequently, we can truly say that each one has a mission, has a role, in the life of the Church which no one else can fulfill. To the extent each of us gives his or her life to Christ, we continue His work upon earth through the visible, tangible humanity each of us possess. To the extent each of us fails to surrender to Jesus, to that extent we refuse Him the opportunity to live through our personal uniqueness. What an awesome privilege has been given to each of us! And what an awesome responsibility!

   

 

January 5, 1995

R. On January 5, 1995, the Father spoke in front of the altar at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. This altar, I believe, was in Holy Cross Monastery.

        He said: "I am the Father, My plan will unfold despite any willfulness."

  

January 5, 1995

The Church is a Fountain of His Life

R. The Church is a fountain of His life. God outpours His grace to us through the Church. God feeds us in His Church. Jesus gives us His Body and Blood.

Jesus:  I want to dwell most intimately in the hearts of My priests and sisters. I will radiate such love to the world through them. I call out a cry to come for My love, come for My grace, they will be led back to Me. I outpour My grace to them in My Church.

    The Spirit is alive in My Church. I outpour My love to My people, the Church is filled with My love. The love of God is a fire. I outpour My grace to you in My Church.

    My Church is a Pilgrim Church. My priests must love the Eucharist and tell all how I feed them. I give myself to them in the Eucharist. The priest should adore Me as the Risen Lord. The priest should love the consecrated host.

    What honor My beloved priests I bestow on you, that you can change the bread and wine into My Body and Blood. Oh My beloved sons, do you not see I cry out to you to come to My Eucharistic Heart. I give you Myself in My Eucharist. I am God. I am, the I AM. I am God, you do not see because you are not open in your hearts. Let the Spirit fill your hearts and fill your souls with the fire of the love of God. Let the Spirit move in your hearts. As the Spirit moves more in your hearts, He will move with burning fire, more and more in My Church. I want to renew My Church. Pray to the Holy Spirit. Adore My Eucharistic Heart. Pray to My Mother's Immaculate Heart for renewal. Pray, pray that the hearts of all My priests will be opened through the grace I am outpouring to them. Through this Movement Shepherds of Christ, I will lead My priests deeply back to My Eucharistic Heart. Oh pray, pray for your priests to cooperate with the grace I am giving to them to respond to the Movement.

    I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock and I ask for your commitment to this Movement today. Pray to the Spirit to transform you from fear to fearlessness. Pray to the Spirit to open your hearts to My grace, to follow the Father's plan for you. Oh My children you are so important to this plan.

    It is through My Eucharistic Heart through Mary's heart, you will be led to the Father's great love for you. As the Spirit moves in you, as He transforms your hearts more and more into My image, I will lead you to the Father and His great love for you.

    It is through the love of Our two Hearts, Jesus and Mary, you will be led to such union with the one Triune God.

    I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock, I have called you to spread My love to this world. It is through the love of Our two Hearts the flock will be led back to the love of God.

R. GOD is alive, He is in our midst this day. When we are baptized and in the state of grace, He dwells in us in such an abundant way. Open up to the Spirit to transform us more and  more into the image and likeness of Jesus. Pray to the Spirit to fill you with the fire of His love.

    The air could be poisoned this very second and I would cease to be. What seems so important, the little details may be of no importance if I die. What goes with me forever are the spiritual things, the love in My heart — the love for God — etc. — Help me to see the things of God in my heart, to live as He wants Me to live, to be more united to Him, so I can say:

Galatians 2: 19-20

I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me. The life that I am now living, subject to the limitation of human nature, I am living in faith, faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.

Fear

Jesus:  Your fear is from the devil. Harken to Me My child, as you work harder and harder to spread My word the devil will press in on you. Pray constantly to the Spirit, go to Our Hearts.

The Trinity - Fr. Carter

R. Think of Jesus, He walked this earth. Jesus is God.

His Heart is burning with such love for man that He came into this world and took the nature of a man, that He died a brutal death on the cross that we would have life!

 John 3: 16

For this is how God loved the world: 
he gave his only Son, 
so that everyone who believes in him 
    may not perish 
but may have eternal life.

R. Meditate on this Jesus came as a man, the Son of God, took on a human body, a baby body.

Excerpt from Response to God's Love, Chapter 1, by Father 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. St. Paul tells us: "I became a minister of this Church through the commission God gave me to preach among you his word in its fullness, that mystery hidden from ages and generations past but now revealed to his holy ones. God has willed to make known to them the glory beyond price which this mystery brings to the Gentiles—the mystery of Christ in you, your hope of glory. This is the Christ we proclaim while we admonish all men and teach them in the full measure of wisdom, hoping to make every man complete in Christ" (Col 1:25-28).  

For there is only one God, and there is only one mediator between God and humanity, himself a human being,   1 Timothy 2: 5

Christ, although possessing two natures, is only one person, and that divine.  From Response in Christ 

John 1: 14

The Word became flesh,
He lived among us,
And we saw His glory,
The glory that he has from the Father as only Son of the Father,
Full of grace and truth.
 

In the countryside close by there were shepherds out in the fields keeping guard over their sheep during the watches of the night. An angel of the Lord stood over them and the glory of the Lord shone round them. They were terrified, but the angel said, ‘Do not be afraid. Look, I bring you news of great joy, a joy to be shared by the whole people. Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.  Luke 2: 8-11

     

 

Excerpt from Response in Christ, Chapter 1, by Father Edward J. Carter, S.J.

...However, such a procedure allows for an immediate view of our complete life of grace in Christ. This preliminary glimpse can consequently serve throughout as a constant, unifying frame of reference.

    The Christian life essentially consists in God's loving self-communication to us with our concomitant response to Him in love. One peculiar characteristic of this communication of God to man is that it has centered itself within a concrete historical framework. God's gift of Himself therefore establishes the process of salvation history. This process began with man's creation and elevation to the supernatural life, a life which is a participation in God's own divine life. This participation is real and, therefore, somewhat similar to life as it is in God Himself; however, since it is only a created sharing, man possesses it in an infinitely less perfect manner than God who is Himself this life.

    Man rejected this self-communication of God in original sin. Yet God's desire to give Himself to man was not withdrawn. He determined to save man from his sinfulness, and thereafter the divine communication centered around the promised Redeemer. Salvation history preceding the advent of this Redeemer became a preparation for the Redeemer's coming. From the time of His coming, salvation history was and is the establishment and continuation of His redemptive work.
