                Mary: My blessed America,

                    I am Mary your Mother — you see
                the beauty of your land — from Alaska
                to Florida to California, to the state
                of Washington — your beauty in the waters
                of the Great Lakes and state of New York —
                Why are you so stingy in thanking your
                God for your gifts given — Hide not the
                dirt on your souls, but be cleansed
                by the sacrament of Penance, tell
                the people about Baptism — Water is
                given and you see its beauty all over
                the world — the coastlands all over the
                world and yet you fail to recognize
                the beauty of your soul and your
                Father above who calls you to purity
                and beauty in your hearts —

                    And Jesus said

                    "I will write the messages of My
                love on their hearts" and He has
                written His letters of love for you
                to circulate to the souls — so their
                hearts will know Jesus and the message
                of His Heart given in His Blue Books —
                Spread the Blue Books my precious
                children — so His words of love will
                be written for the hungry race on
                their hearts —

                Mary tells me

                Jesus says "I love you, I love you,
                I love you — My Heart is on fire
                for you — I will set the world
                ablaze with the love letters of
                My Heart, but you must circulate
                them to the people"

                Mary continues —

                    Oh my child — Oh my America —
                go to the Heart of my Son and to my
                Immaculate Heart — tell the world
                of the Rosaries we gave on the same
                day I appeared at Clearwater —
                December 17, 1996

                    My children listen to me

Oh America pray the prayers Jesus                 gives you now before it is too late —                 gather your families in a corner                 before the statue and pray the prayers                 for healing of your family, the Church                 and the world — Pray to me                                         Pray to the Holy Spirit                                         Pray to the Sacred Heart of Jesus                                         Make Jesus the King and Center                                             of your hearts and                                             your lives

                Oh giant coast lands — you see
                    beauty, but fail to know the
                    beauty of your own graced soul —

                All over the world let these prayers
                    be prayed

                My children Jesus told Fr. Carter to pray
                    these prayers 15 years ago —

                On August 13, 2004, after my image
                    head was destroyed March 1, 2004

                    a monster hurricane ravaged Florida,
                    then September 5, 2004 —
                    then again and again

                I am Our Lady of Clearwater —
                Our Lady of the Universe
                    speaking to you from Florida

                I am Our Lady of the United States
                    I appeared in Clearwater, Florida,
                    I was ignored —
                    Jesus was ignored
                    God the Father was ignored

                Ignore me no longer —

                Help me — pray these prayers
                    honoring Our Hearts —

                Make Jesus the King and Center of
                    your hearts

                I am Mary Mother of the Universe
                    Mother of Florida, the sunny state

                    I appear —

                    Our Lady Clothed with
                        the sun

               Come to me my children, ignore
                    me no longer —

                Your focus is your grass, your
                    buildings — roads that go
                    all over

                R. "All dressed up and no where to go" —

                A priest said a man was baptized, in
                    another Church, but never went to Church —
                    And now he was in the casket

                Mary:

                Where will you go my children?

                You are here to prepare yourselves
                    for heaven —

                You ignore me, my Son, God the Father

                America —

                    I write to you today

                    to pray as my Son has told
                        you

                Your rolling hills

                Your tall buildings that tower
                    into the sky —

                Remember 2001

                I called you every day 1994 to
                    spread the rosary to school
                    children 

                    some coloring books

                    the Red & Blue Rosary Books

                The Rosary Book and Messages for the
                    Nursing homes

                On August 13, 1917 after I had
                    showed the children a vision
                    of hell July 13, 1917 —

                    On August 13, 1917 —
                    they jailed the children of
                    Fatima

                I appeared August 19, 1917
                    and because they jailed the
                    children on August 13, 1917

                Oh my children, I love you so
                    much —
                    ignore me no longer

                Rolling hills, big buildings —
                    roads that go all over —
                    dams, planes that fly
                    the skies from one end
                    of the earth to the other

                "All dressed up and no where to
                    go"

                Where will you go on that final day
                    when you ignore God —

                    You are so particular about
                your brand clothes — to be in
                with the people — latest style —
                latest clothes —
                    paint the body

                    I am Mary your spiritual
                Mother —

                    What about your soul —

                    Have you gone to the Church,
                        received baptism —
                        gone to Mass —
                        adoration, confession —
                        to make your soul so beautiful
                        like your painted body that goes
                        to the ground —

                    Oh my children —

                    Jesus loves you so much —
                let His letters of love be the
                message of love on your hearts —

                Oh my children circulate Jesus'
                letters of love —

                    spread them so people go
                to the Eucharist —

                    I cry bloody tears for my
                children

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.

end of Mary's Message

                Mary: Blue skies, clouds and wonders of the
                    world — ruins —
                    buildings that date back to the
                    Romans
                    the Pyramids of Egypt —
                    Ramses' statues

                Oh so old you say and how they
                    lasted —

                Does the little one ask — how
                    old they are and
                    you tell them that
                    eternity lasts forever and ever —

                The Infant of Prague

                The Sacred Heart of Jesus

                The Resurrected Lord

                The Cathedrals and artwork of
                    centuries —

                The lives of the people who
                    believed in God and those
                    who did not —

                Where are those men killed in
                    so many wars now —

                What of the floods that destroyed
                    so many structures — did this
                    remind men of Noah, did it remind
                    them of the dividing of the Red Sea —
                    How much pain is taken to preserve
                    artifacts and how some ignore their
                    souls — their spiritual life —

                    And yet God commissioned
                you in baptism to spread the
                Good News, but you say — the world
                doesn't want that —

                    How long is your life span —
                how many people have you touched
                in your life span —

                    Look at the things preserved from
                the Kings of Egypt long ago — so much
                painstaking efforts made for
                this —

                    My people Jesus came in dire
                poverty — He was conceived in my
                womb — born in a cave in
                Bethlehem

                    What of the Kingdoms of the earth —

                    What do you do for your heart to
                        make it a place of love for
                        Jesus and others

                Ornateness of buildings preserved —

                Why do so many little babies in the
                    womb be murdered
                    Jesus came in the womb —
                    The Son of God grew in my
                        womb —

                    How can you say a baby
                        isn't a baby in
                        the womb

                    Jesus conceived of the Holy Spirit
                        in my womb, the Son
                        of God — I carried Jesus,
                        the Son of God in my
                        womb for 9 months —

                You are limited with your distorted vision
                    God created the waters, the earth
                    for you to see the magnificence
                    of His gift and YOU ignore Him —

                You act as if you own things —

                God created you to know, love and
                    SERVE Him —

                How can you seek dominance for
                    dominance sake — step on
                    your brothers and serve yourself
                    selfishly without a concern
                    for others and for God —

                God gave to you your bodies to serve
                    Him —
                    He breathed life in you —
                    Don't kill the babies in the
                        womb any longer — you
                        are testing God

                You are to be humble servants
                    of the Lord —

                I appeared in Clearwater to
                    tell you these messages
                    from God the Father —

                You broke my image head and
                    ignore me and the message I bring

                I am Mary your Mother

                Queen of Peace

                Satan is ugly —

                Many men focus on themselves as
                    Kings —

                God is the King —

                Jesus was crowned for your sins —
                    Jesus wore a purple robe
                    and a crown of thorns

                Stop offending your God — I
                    cannot hold back His hand
                    from punishing the earth with
                    just punishments for your crimes —

                I am Mary —

                    Queen of Peace

                    Obey the Commandments of God

                    Ignore me no longer

                    Pray the rosary every day

                    Pray these prayers Jesus
                        gave to Fr. Carter

                I am Our Lady of Clearwater —
                    Queen of the Universe

                Help the people to know the letters
                    of His love

                Spread the Messages of
                    Jesus to the world —

                I am Mary your Mother —

                God has given you so much to
                    eat, to drink, to enjoy —
                    why do you ignore God

                All the great cities of the
                    world — look at the history —

                Where are these men who fought
                    for dominance when on
                    earth —
                    kings that wanted to be
                        worshipped
                    rulers who "lorded" over
                        the people when on earth

                And Jesus came in my womb —
                    the little King —
                    born in a stable in Bethlehem
                    among the animals

                What of the men who fought
                    for their heresy — leading men
                    off —

                Look at the fountain before
                    the Vatican 

                Look at the communion of the
                    saints
                    Follow their example
                    Not the example of worldly
                        men —

                The Apostles were called by God —
                    Today you are called by
                    Jesus to spread this
                    message so the
                    world will be filled with hearts
                    of love as they know Jesus'
                    love from His letters of love in
                    God's Blue Books

                Look at the beauty of the flowers,
                    fish, trees, skies, waters
                    God gives you

                The talents given to men to
                    promote the Kingdom of God,
                    but used by many, dead
                    now, who while on the
                    stage rebelled against
                    God's Plan and fought for their
                    own glory, their own dominance —

                Oh my children — worship God — not
                    yourselves — your lives are so
                    short here —

                I cry for my children —

                Listen to me —

                I am Mother of the children of the
                    world —

                You are all my children — I stood
                    beneath the cross and
                    now I cry to you my children —
                    Help me —

                I am Queen of the children — Many of
                    my children have gone to hell — please
                    listen to me

                I am Mary your Mother —

                Listen to me and my Son

                After morning Mass

                    R. Holding on and letting go —

                    To me and from the Blue Books I
                see us as the empty vessel ready
                to be filled —

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

                    When I go to Mass I come ready
                to be filled

                    I go to the Blessed Sacrament for
                adoration ready to receive more and
                more an abundant outpouring of
                His life.

                    When I read the Word — I want His
                word living in me — I prayed for
                this in the Holy Spirit Novena —
                Prayer for the Word Alive in our Hearts —
                Openness to receive His gifts —

                Eager to come —

                Wanting God to love so deeply in
                    me

                Open — going to the Eucharist —
                    ready to be filled

                Confession — wanting forgiveness —
                    eager for His grace —

                Knowing the Presence of God in
                    me — being sensitive to His
                    touch —
                    knowing with tears My love of
                        the Eucharist —
                    knowing how one I am with
                        God pleading for grace for
                        the world at the Consecration
                        of the Mass

                    "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."

                        Always — an empty vessel —
                        ready to be filled —

                Free will —

                    It is me
                    Trusting in God
                    Wanting peace, love and joy to be
                        found in Him

                A snow plow —

                    letting go of unfinished relationships —
                        that can keep us clogged —
                        make us angry and can
                        stop us from being an "empty
                        vessel, ready to be filled"

                To me Mass is where I go to be filled
                    by Him — filled with light —
                    smiling at others
                    giving to others

                Love of God
                Love of others —

                Being a victim — living like this
                    makes a person closed — like
                    a can with the lid on it —

                  Ready to be filled

                Surrendering
                Thirsting — Longing

                Ready to receive
                Ready to give to others
 

                If somebody takes off lid —
                    song of singing the victim

                God has blessed us abundantly
                God wants us to look at Jesus
                    on the cross

                Be like Jesus

                Jesus gave His all

                Jesus gives us the Church
                Jesus gives us baptism
                Jesus gives us the Eucharist
                Jesus gives us confession
                                            |
                                            |
                                            |
                                the sacraments

                Jesus gave us His all to His death
                    on the cross

                Jesus came to this earth
                    Jesus gave us Himself

                Jesus ———————> Giving
                Loving is Giving

Prayer from St. Ignatius

Lord, teach me to be generous.
Teach me to serve you as you deserve;
To give and not to count the cost;
To fight and not to heed the wounds;
To toil and not to seek for rest;
To labor and not to ask for any reward,
Save that of knowing
                    that I am doing your will.

 

        Prayer of St Ignatius

Soul of Christ, sanctify me
Body of Christ, save me
Blood of Christ, inebriate me
Water from the side of Christ wash me
Passion of Christ, strengthen me
O good Jesus, hear me
Within Thy wounds hide me
Permit me not to be separated from Thee
From the wicked foe defend me
at the hour of my death call me
and bid me come to Thee
That with Thy saints I may praise Thee
For ever and ever. Amen.

                Sing: Take Lord Receive

                Selfishness is slavery to the evil
                    one

                Jesus showed us His selflessness

                Discerning the Spirits

                The Holy Spirit leads us to peace, love
                    and joy —

                The more one advances in the mystical
                    life — the more we are so
                    one in God

                emptying ourselves as Christ on
                    the cross

                Letting go of inordinate attachments —

                Trust in God

                Love for God and others

                Sin hurts our relationship with
                    God and others

                The evil one wants us sad, divided
                    disharmonious, isolated —
                    selfish - angry, prideful,
                    envious, hateful

                Being filled by God
                To be filled by God
                    we must be open
                    we can't be clogged
                    selfish

                Stars are beautiful —
                    they shine and give light

They are     They give light —     They are full of light

                Being full of light for us comes from
                    being filled with God's life
                    in us

                Remember the talents message —
                    do we take our talents
                    bury them and give stingily to others
                    or punish others and give
                    nothing at all

                Christ came to show us how He gave
                    He gave to His death on the cross —
                    He gave His body
                    He gave His Blood

                    His body was beaten
                    He gave —
                    Christ taught us about giving
                    Christ taught us to be a servant

                Sing: Come to me Lord and possess my soul

                Take Lord and receive all my liberty —
                my memory, my understanding and
                my entire will — all I have and possess.
                Thou has given all to me.
                To Thee, Oh Lord, I return it
                All is Thine —
                Dispose of it wholly according
                    to Thy will —
                Give me Thy love and Thy grace,
                for this is sufficient for me —

                How can you change — when you
                    won't ever look at your faults —

                From St. Ignatius

                Man is created to praise, reverence
                    and serve God our Lord, and by this
                    means to save his soul.

                    I was in Florida this Week and
                three teenagers were killed in
                an accident — speeding at 2:30AM
                2 were 18 years old and one
                was 16 years old. Their layout
                is today in Church — casket closed —

                    The spiritual exercises are to lead us
                from self will and excessive attachment
                into freedom — to live as the sons
                of God — knowing, loving and serving
                God — To help us to live according
                to God's will — where-in lies our
                happiness.

                    God created the world and
                    Adam and Eve rebelled
                against God —

                    God has sent His Son to redeem
                the world —

                    We are to reflect in God's plan
                for us and how we fit into
                this plan to help souls go to heaven

Matthew 28: 19-20

1 John 3: 2

My dear friends,
    we are already God’s children,
but what we shall be in the future
    has not yet been revealed.
We are well aware that when he appears
we shall be like him,
because we shall see him as he really is.

Matthew 5: 8-10

Blessed are the pure in heart:
they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers:
they shall be recognised
   as children of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted
   in the cause of uprightness:
the kingdom of Heaven is theirs.  

 

Mark 7: 31-37

                "Be opened"

Isaiah 50: 4c-5

Morning by morning 
    he makes my ear alert 
to listen like a disciple. 
Lord Yahweh has opened my ear 
and I have not resisted, 
I have not turned away. 

                O God grant us mercy and forgiveness —

                O God help us to be holy —

                There is a time for everything —

                We are here to die to those things
                    not likened to God and live
                    more the resurrected life —

                There is a time to give —
                    we want to do God's will —
                    this is our guide —
                    We are to be formed more and
                        more in the image and
                        likeness of God

                To be molded likened to Jesus —
                To walk in the light —
                To be open —
                To be filled by God —
                To go to Church to be filled and to spread
                    His light to others —

                I saw a Curious George show and the
                    snake in it shed its skin —
                    We are to die to the things not likened
                        to God to live more the resurrected
                        life in Him —

Proverbs 31: 30-31

                Suffering brings us to our knees —
                    1) Katrina
                    2) 2001

                We are afraid of death —

                We see God's hand touching us in
                    death —
                We must embrace we are going to
                    die —
                What happens after a person
                    dies?
                The priest said on the other
                    side of the casket —

                God has a plan for us
                God wants us to love — not hate —

                We are unique — God gave each
                    of us a call to do a certain
                    work — no one can contribute
                    as God called us to

                Life is a gift —

                    God created us to serve Him —
                    We do not even own our own bodies
                    We are here to serve God —
                    The world wants us to forget this Plan
                        God has for us
                    The devil wants us selfish —
                    We are here to be converted — to
                        change — to die to those
                        things not likened to God, to be
                        more likened to Him —

                We are to be disciples of Jesus —
                    listening to Him and responding
                    to God's call to us and the Plan
                    of the Father —
                    to say "yes" as Mary said "yes" to
                        God the Father's Plan for why
                        He created us

                Ask God for the grace to follow this plan —
                Ask God for the grace to serve Him

                Why did God make me?

                God called me by name
                God wants me humble, obedient to Him —
                God wants me to obey the commandments —
                God wants me to be meek and tender of heart —
                    not combatal —

                God called me
                God gave me talents

                Jesus washed the feet of His disciples
                Jesus gives us the Eucharist

John 15: 14-17

                Jesus obeyed the will of His Father
                    "Thy will be done"

Matthew 26: 30-46

Mark 14: 26-42

After the psalms had been sung they left for the Mount of Olives. And Jesus said to them, 'You will all fall away, for the scripture says: I shall strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered; however, after my resurrection I shall go before you into Galilee.' Peter said, 'Even if all fall away, I will not.' And Jesus said to him, 'In truth I tell you, this day, this very night, before the cock crows twice, you will have disowned me three times.' But he repeated still more earnestly, 'If I have to die with you, I will never disown you.' And they all said the same.

They came to a plot of land called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, ‘Stay here while I pray.’ Then he took Peter and James and John with him. And he began to feel terror and anguish. And he said to them, ‘My soul is sorrowful to the point of death. Wait here, and stay awake.’ And going on a little further he threw himself on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, this hour might pass him by. ‘Abba,  Father!’ he said, ‘For you everything is possible. Take this cup away from me. But let it be as you, not I, would have it.’ He came back and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, ‘Simon, are you asleep? Had you not the strength to stay awake one hour? Stay awake and pray not to be put to the test. The spirit is willing enough, but human nature is weak.’ Again he went away and prayed, saying the same words. And once more he came back and found them sleeping, their eyes were so heavy; and they could find no answer for him. He came back a third time and said to them, ‘You can sleep on now and have your rest. It is all over. The hour has come. Now the Son of man is to be betrayed into the hands of sinners. Get up! Let us go! My betrayer is not far away.’

                Judas Betrayed Jesus
                Jesus was arrested

                We are to obey God's will

Matthew 8: 21-23

    Another man, one of the disciples, said to him, ‘Lord, let me go and bury my father first.’ But Jesus said, ‘Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their dead.’ 

Then he got into the boat followed by his disciples.

John 4: 34

But Jesus said: My food is to do the will of the one who sent me, and to complete his work.

 

John 6: 38

because I have come from heaven, not to do my own will, but to do the will of him who sent me.

                Some angels fell —
                they said "I will not serve"

Revelation 12: 7

And now war broke out in heaven, when Michael with his angels attacked the dragon. The dragon fought back with his angels,

 

Revelation 20: 9-10

They came swarming over the entire country and besieged the camp of the saints, which is the beloved City. But fire rained down on them from heaven and consumed them. Then the devil, who led them astray, was hurled into the lake of fire and sulphur, where the beast and the false prophet are, and their torture will not come to an end, day or night, forever and ever.

                Adam and Eve disobeyed God
                We are to obey God

"What have I done for Christ?"
"What am I doing for Christ?"
"What ought I to do for Christ?"

                Pray for the grace to obey God —
 

                Sin is hurting our relationship
                    with God —

                Sin is ingratitude to God

Matthew 25: 26-31

But his master answered him, "You wicked and lazy servant! So you knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered? Well then, you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return I would have got my money back with interest. So now, take the talent from him and give it to the man who has the ten talents. For to everyone who has will be given more, and he will have more than enough; but anyone who has not, will be deprived even of what he has. As for this good–for–nothing servant, throw him into the darkness outside, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth."

‘When the Son of man comes in his glory, escorted by all the angels, then he will take his seat on his throne of glory.

                How can we hurt our relationship with
                    Jesus who loves us so much He
                    gives us Himself in the Eucharist —

                Jesus gives us confession because He
                    wants us so one with Him —

                When we hurt our relationship with God
                    we are miserable — because what
                    makes us happy is union with God —

                The more deeply united to God the happier
                    we are —

                The more we sin, hurt others — we
                    hurt our relationship with God and
                    we are miserable when we are
                    not close to God

                What we do to others, we do to God —
                God intends us to love Him and love
                    others —

                When we are selfish and isolated —
                    hurting others — we are
                    miserable, we hurt our
                    relationship with God

                Song: Why Do We Hurt the Ones we Love

                Prepare for a good confession
                    Admit our faults
                    Ask for forgiveness
                    Tell God we don't want to hurt
                        Him and others again
                    Forgive those who hurt us —

                Let go of unfinished, hurtful
                    relationships and forgive —

                Empty ourselves of unforgiveness
                    jealousies, hatred, envy —

                Ask God for grace to love Him and
                    others

                Song: Give Me Your Heart oh Jesus

                We are called by God to listen to the
                    Teacher Jesus —
                    to be disciples of Jesus —
                    disciples listen —
                    when we quit listening we
                        cease to be a disciple

                We are to build the Kingdom of God
                    in our hearts — being disciples
                    of love —
                    loving God and loving others

                We are to build the Kingdom of
                    God — not see through our
                    distorted vision but with the
                    vision of God —

                    We are to plan for the beatific
                        vision by trying to see
                        more and more through the eyes
                        of God

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.

                    Let's look at Mary's "yes"

Luke 1: 26-56

                We see the Father's Plan —
                He sent Jesus

                Jesus was conceived in the womb of
                    Mary through the power of the Holy Spirit

                Jesus took flesh —
                    think of this mystery
                    think of His love for us
                    think of His obedience to the Father's will

                Christ was born a baby —
                    in poverty in Bethlehem —
                    the little King —
                    the King of heaven and earth

                We can say yes to God and try to live a more
                    holy life or
                    we can rebel against God's will for
                    us

                Two Standards —

                    Satan's        —       Jesus' humility

                Discipleship - is humble submission
                    to the will of God —
                    listening to God

Luke 8: 19-21

His mother and his brothers came looking for him, but they could not get to him because of the crowd. He was told, 'Your mother and brothers are standing outside and want to see you.' But he said in answer, 'My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and put it into practice.'

                We meditate on the 3 classes of men
                    of St. Ignatius

                Do we do a work that promotes satan's kingdom —
                            or God's Kingdom

                Do we purely work in humility —
                    not attached to inordinate attachments
                    out of love for God
                    out of service to build God's Kingdom —

                Do we keep the vision of God before us —
                    serve, work for building what
                    God wants or
                    do we try to "save face"
                    do we try to "promote ourselves"
                    do we work out anger — unfinished
                        business, jealousies —

                Do we act for the honor and glory
                    of God because we
                    love Him so much and want
                    to serve Him

                Pray through the intercession of Mary
                    to place us under the standard
                    of her Son

                Read the Discernment of Spirits —

                    Are we listening to the Holy Spirit that leads
                        us to peace, love and joy —
                        doing God's will —

                    Do we listen to satan —
                        that leads us to isolation,
                        disharmony, sadness,
                        misery, willfulness —
                        not serving and loving God and others

                Read the Discernment of Spirits
                    St. Ignatius Spiritual Exercises

                Do not act in desolation

                Pray for grace to follow the Holy Spirit
                    and do the will of God

                Jesus calmed the storm
                Jesus walked on the water —
                Jesus showed us His miracles and
                Jesus had enemies because they
                    didn't want to loose power
                Jesus expelled demons, Jesus fed
                    the people, Jesus taught the
                    people —

                See Jesus transfigured —
                    hear the voice of the Father —

                Jesus showed them Himself transfigured
                    after He did the miracles and
                    we can ponder the power of the Divine God

                Jesus had these enemies that wanted
                    Him put to death —

                Jesus rose Lazarus from the dead

                God has called us
                God created us
                We are unique

                God has a plan for us
                God gives us a sharing in His life
                    through baptism
                God feeds this life with the Eucharist

                Jesus did the will of the Father —
                    Jesus suffered the bitter passion and
                        was crucified doing the Father's
                        will

                Jesus rose on the 3rd day —
                Jesus gives us this sharing in His life

John 19: 25-27

Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala. Seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing near her, Jesus said to his mother, ‘Woman, this is your son.’ Then to the disciple he said, ‘This is your mother.’ And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.

John 20; 19-21 

In the evening of that same day, the first day of the week, the doors were closed in the room where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews. Jesus came and stood among them. He said to them, ‘Peace be with you,’ and, after saying this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples were filled with joy at seeing the Lord, and he said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. 

    ‘As the Father sent me, 
    so am I sending you.’ 

 

Luke 24: 50-53

Then he took them out as far as the outskirts of Bethany, and raising his hands he blessed them. Now as he blessed them, he withdrew from them and was carried up to heaven. They worshipped him and then went back to Jerusalem full of joy; and they were continually in the Temple praising God.

1 Corinthians 15: 20-28

I Love You

 April 13, 1994

 Words of Jesus. Read before the Tabernacle. 

Jesus:  How, child, do I, Jesus, tell you I love you? You hold on to silly things when God is in your midst and is ardently loving you. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I am writing to each precious child this day. I am on fire for love of you. I remain in the Eucharist to be with you with My ardent love. I did not want to leave My beloved ones at the Last Supper. I love you so, My dear and ardently loved children. I remain with you this day in the Blessed Sacrament, the same Jesus Who died a brutal death on the Cross.

    Do you know I am truly present there? Do you know that God waits every day for you in the tabernacle? Do you comprehend even a minute amount of My love? You will never know of how I love you on earth.

    I, Jesus, truly the Son of God, came to earth a man and suffered a brutal death for love of you. I love you so much! I remain with you this day. I long for your love. I want you to come and be with Me in front of the tabernacle. I wait, I yearn for you to come and whisper your love to Me. I am a person and I love you this day, with such an ardent on-fire love! No human could ever compare a speck to My love for you.

    I wait, little ones, in the tabernacle. I wait for you to come and receive Me in Communion. I want you to want Me so much you cannot wait to come and receive Me. I want to be the love, the center of your life!

    I am Jesus. I am the Son of God. I am writing to you this day. I want to possess your very soul and live in you. I have all you need, sweet ones. Oh, you are so blind! I long for your union with Me. I wrote the book of love. I instituted it, yet you go to the world for your love and do not even come to Me! Oh, I love you, little ones. Little ones, beloved of the Father, loved by the Holy Spirit, mothered by My very own mother! What more can I say? The rest is up to you!

    I give you your will with such love and I want your love freely given. I am God. What do you think you could ever need that I do not give you? I am the Savior of this world. I am Jesus, the Son of God. I am waiting for you. I am longing for you. I am yearning for you. I am God. I have all you ever will need!

    Surrender this life to Me. Pray My Prayer for Union with Me. I want to possess your soul and operate from your very being. I am Jesus. I am the Son of God. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I am Who am. I died and rose on the third day.

    Harken to My call, harken to My pleading. Spend your days in love with Me. Nothing matters unless it is rooted in Me and rooted in My love. I am the Son of God. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I love you with the tenderest love. I am waiting this day for just you, My beloved one. Come to Me for I am the tenderest of all hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

From Blue Book I

To The Reader

Jesus wants to share His love with you. He comes in these letters to tell you how you can be in intimate union with Him.

All of us possess everything we need to have an intimate union with Him. He has written to me since October of 1991. For at least a year I sat in front of the tabernacle and begged him to talk to me. I wanted words. I prayed to the Holy Spirit and begged and begged Him to baptize me. After a long and seemingly endless search, trying to hear God, He told me to "feed the hungry." For six weeks this was all I heard. I thought maybe I wasn't feeding my children well or eating well enough myself. What a long wait for three words! At long last one day, as I was writing to Jesus, I received a letter back. He told me, "I am Jesus, Son of the Living God." I did not want to write this but it kept coming-and so many other messages. I knew nothing of anyone getting messages. I wrote them, reluctantly, and hid my notebooks. The letters kept coming-a lot in the night-and I would be awakened by long letters which I felt compelled to get up and write down. I read these letters privately and my life began to change. I felt a new life within me.

He taught me of His fervent love and how truly present He was. He taught me how precious I was to Him. Over and over again He would call me His precious child and tell me how He loved me, how He clothed me with dignity and honor. He told me over and over how He was right by my side always. He is teaching me to give up all fear and to trust in Him. He is teaching me to let go of myself and let Him run my life. I am trying every day to do His will.

He is also telling you in your heart all you need to know. He has all the answers for you there in your heart. You must be silent and go to Him so you can hear His words for you.

Sit in front of the tabernacle and be with Him. Sit and be open and just be with Him. Read these letters there. These are Jesus' love letters to you. Sit in front of the tabernacle and let Him talk to you. Sit silent awhile. Read these letters part of the time. Open any page and He will talk to you. Do not read this like a book, cover to cover. Just open to a page and read that page. That is the way He speaks to you.

 

 

God’s Blue Books

	God’s Blue Book 1 – Messages given by Jesus to Rita Ring. Jesus tells us how precious we are to Him and how He loves us.  He is with us this day, so close.  He is a person who longs and waits for our love. He wants such union with us.  These are His teachings to lift you up!  Tapes are available with messages and songs given from Jesus.
	God’s Blue Book 2 – Messages given by Jesus to Rita Ring. Jesus is on fire for us.  Rita saw a vision of Jesus’ Heart on Dec. 17, 1991.  The power is in the Eucharist.  The power is released when hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.  Jesus wants His beloved souls to pray before the tabernacle and after Communion.  It is in praying to Him at these times that we become very close to Him.  His Heart is an endless furnace of burning love on fire for each of his precious souls.  He wants union with us.  Only in the surrendering of ourselves to the will of God can we be close to Him. Tapes are available with messages and songs given from Jesus.
	God’s Blue Book 3 – Messages given by Jesus to Rita Ring. Love God, love one another.  He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.  How can we say that we love Him when we do not love one another?  Each person was created by the Father.  If we do not love our brother, we are not loving His creation.  We are the lights that shine in this world.  Jesus loves us so much, He gives Himself to us in the Eucharist. He remains with us in the tabernacle, and we take His gift so lightly.  In this book, He tells us about His immense love.  He asks us to rid ourselves of hate and anger and to love our brothers.  He talks about Mary.  Two rosaries are included.
	God’s Blue Book 4 – Messages from Jesus and Mary. How they love us!  Mary appeared to me everyday and I knew from these writings more about Jesus’ love for Mary and Mary’s love for Jesus and Their love for us.  This book is a beautiful message from the Two Hearts and it includes rosary mediations from Mary and Jesus.  This book really talks about Their pure love and how we can love more purely.
	God’s Blue Book 5 – Jesus wants to be so united with us.  He is the bridegroom of our soul. In living deeper consecration to the Two Hearts we can love more purely.  This is a book about pure love.  It is awesome. It has many rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.  Some writings are also from Fr. Carter.
	God’s Blue Book 6 – Jesus and Mary appeared everyday giving these rosaries.  We can receive tremendous grace when we pray them with a candle.  Some writings are also from Fr. Carter.  This will help you grow in the spiritual life when you pray these rosaries. He Calls Us to Action – 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.

July 31, 1994

Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:

"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.

"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.

"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)
