R. I want to say how honored we are God has chosen us
for this Mission to pray for the priests, the Church and the world.

It is a gift God gives us to give us life.

Thank You God.

The prayers in the Prayer Manual are so beautiful.

If we lived by the consecration to Jesus and Mary alone
our lives would be lived in love of God and neighbor.

Read the words of the Prayers in the Consecration
to Jesus and Mary Fr. Carter gave us from Jesus.

Mary asked for devotion to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary at Fatima.

The Litany to Mary and the Sacred Heart are so very beautiful and
is a great devotion God wants from us to show our Love of God and others.

It is a gift to breath and to serve God in our lives.

Mary appeared in Clearwater a sign of the importance of this message.

Jesus asked for Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus.

 

Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus

My dear fellow Associate Members,

Jesus is calling special apostles to join a new division of the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Here is a message from Jesus given to Father Carter:

    My beloved priest-companion, I am requesting that a new prayer movement be started under the direction of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I am asking for volunteers who are willing to pray before the Blessed Sacrament for one hour, twice-weekly. Members of the Shepherds of Christ prayer chapters, as well as others, are to be invited to join this movement.

    These apostles are to pray for the intentions I am giving you. For part of the hour they are to use the prayers of the Shepherds of Christ Associates Handbook. They may spend the rest of the hour as they so choose.

    I will use this new prayer movement within My Shepherds of Christ Ministries in a powerful way to help in the renewal of My Church and the world. I will give great graces to those who join this movement. The name, Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, is to be given to this movement.

    I am inviting My beloved Rita Ring to be coordinator for this activity.

    I pour out the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock.

    This is indeed a special calling for us to unite in one heart with His Eucharistic Heart and pray for the following intentions:

    1. For the spread of the devotion to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary culminating in the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of the Immaculate Heart.
    2. For the Pope.
    3. For all bishops of the world.
    4. For all priests.
    5. For all sisters and brothers in the religious life.
    6. For all members of the Shepherds of Christ Movement, and for the spread of this movement to the world.
    7. For all members of the Catholic Church.
    8. For all members of the human family.
    9. For all souls in purgatory.

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."

Through Him, with Him, in Him

 

R. Life is so short.

What good does it do to not do what God wants of us?

 

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

R. My Jesus,

Let me feel Your presence within my heart –
let me know Thy holy will. Lord Jesus,

I love You and I worship You,
I give You praise. You are
great indeed and all powerful. There is
nothing too great or too small for Your
power. You have bathed me in Your
love and I feel it in my soul. You are all
powerful and I shall have no gods before
You. Send Your healing rays into my soul.

Song: Your Presence Pervades My Soul

am in your heart. I see your sorrow and
your fear and your love. I come to fill
you with My love. I am an undying source
of love. I am all powerful, I want to live in
you and be with you always. I want to love
My children through you if you let Me.

R. I do want to love everyone, thank
You God for dwelling in me. I want to
be Your temple of love. Dear Holy Spirit,
give me Your seven gifts and let me be
Your light to others, shining and loving
and doing Your will.

You are my God – You are my joy.
You have all the power. I give You my
will and my life. I ask You to constantly
dwell in my heart. Be the light in my eyes,
the constant flame of love.

Jesus: I am in your heart, My child.
Hold My presence there and you won’t
be afraid. I love you as no human can do.
I love you divinely. I am in your heart,
My child. Hold My presence there and you
won’t be afraid. Focus on My presence
in your heart. The warmth of My word,
the comfort of My heat and My healing,
healing your broken wounds and feel My
peace. Let yourself go deep into My
presence and peace, My warmth and My
love. I love you forever. In your brokenness,
in your sin, in your struggles, I am
as intently with you in all moments.
Take the time and listen. I am here. My
strength is an unending power, My light
an undying light of peace. It forever shines
in your heart to give peace, know it is
always there for you. You are My child,
My love, My baby, you are precious to Me.
I will never leave you orphaned, but will
guard you going out and coming in and I
am there in your heart, touch and know,
My child, I am in you at this very moment.
It is ecstasy in My intimacy, nothing can
replace this intimacy with Me, it is Divine
Love and I love you.

R. You give Your life to show the way. You
are my God and I want to be with You.
In this moment of presences, I place my
family in Your hands. Your gentleness to
fall on each person and to know Your
presence.

 

December, 1991

Jesus: You are My child, you are being
powered by Me. My love is infinite,
My support is infinite, My
blessings are infinite, turn your
will over to Me, have faith.
My love is constant. I can heal you –
listen to me. I am always with
you every moment of your life.

 

December 4, 1991

Jesus: Focus on Heaven.
Focus on the opening to heaven.
A light that would blind you.
A warmth of love you cannot imagine.
This is your home where My love will
welcome you and you will say
“Oh my God
Come home to Me, know I am always
here and your home is waiting.”
Your time here is to spread My love
and your time has not come, but it
awaits. Love one another –
Teach others about Me – Read
to your children and show them My
ways. I will be there, My graces with you.
I will fill you. I love you.

 

March, 1992

R. My Dear Jesus,

Jesus: I love you, My child, come and lay
your head on My lap and cry, it is
okay, I know your pain and I
want to comfort you. I will
hold you tight and pat your head and
stroke your hair and I will give
you a healing light to penetrate
your body. I am warmth and
power and perfection. If I say the
word you will be healed, I send
My light through you as a beam
from your head to your neck and
passing each cell in your neck and healing
it with all My warm light and peace.
Your stress I wash away in an
instant, spreading My light through
and about you and caressing you. I
do love you. You My child are so
precious to Me. I don’t want you to
be sad, come to Me and know I am
healing you now, My light, My power
and My peace. You are My precious
child, come to Me. I will give you
rest, I will comfort you and I am
all powerful. I can heal your hurts,
rely on Me, I am your God and
you know Me. I call you by name,
the sound of your name is music
to My ears. I watch you and
you My child are indeed
precious, cling to Me. I am
He who comforts you –
do not be afraid, for I will gently
show you the way of the Lord and
I am holding you and sending My
light and My healing to you – go and
praise God and spread His love as
I do to you. You, My child are beloved
of My Father, you are His precious
child, come to Me in your weariness and
I am there. Why do you fear, you who
are so precious, do you think I would
let you die, your time is not
here. I am with you until you
come to Me on that last day, always
to comfort you and hold your hand
and I love you –
Come to Me, My child – be strong
in your faith, know how great
is My love for you. Yes I have
called you by name, though
you pass through raging waters
you shall not drown, you
shall not be burned. I will be
there with My rod and My staff and
My Heart to love you – know
this and feel comforted in My love.
For you were hungry and I gave
you to eat, naked and I clothed
you, and I sent a shower of blessing,
heated rays into your body to
penetrate and warm you and help
you. I love you My child –
Know Me and know I am He
who comforts you and I am
here with you now.
 

March, 1992

Jesus: Your strength I give to you and
restore your bounce and life for I will be
with you that is My promise, forever more
cling to Me and know My presence, My
healing, My love, My peace, I am
in you now helping you, restoring your
love in yourself. Yes I am He who
comforts you and I don’t want you to be
afraid, cling to Me as a child by the hand,
holds steadfast to his mother in a
crowd. The waters may come and the child
is afraid but holds the hand of the
mother oh so tight and knows that as
long as she has that hand she will
be safe. You My child, hold My hand,
don’t let go – think only of My hand, cling
to it, hold it tight and go about your day
knowing as a mother holds the child’s
hand and they are safe – you My child hold
My hand always, and know you are My
child, you are safe, walk through each
problem and hold My hand, tight –
think of that always through raging
waters, you have the hand of Jesus Christ,
This is how you are not consumed, this is
how you are not rattled, this is how in
the midst of turmoil you are at
peace, at My hand and clinging to Me,
as a child to their mom you will
never be afraid. Focus on your hand and
remember this. Hold it and when you are
weary, come, come to Me, place your
yoke upon My shoulders and lay your
head in My lap. You are comforted by
Jesus the Lord, you are so precious
in My sight, I am there in the
raging waters, I am He who comforts
you. Take My hand and never, ever, ever
let it go, until death hold it tight
and then you will see on that day that
light – that blinding light and feel this
love in the intensity that you cannot
as a human even imagine – My love
is over powering, nothing you can
even feel right now, IS like My
presence in your heart, it is like
the heart on fire you saw once, that
warmth that heat that intensity in
My presence that you can only feel
a glow in your heart, that can only
come from Me and the Holy Spirit –
touch My Heart and know it is
there and beating for you.
I died for you on the cross.
I loved you so much that
I would die for you. Think of that -
I would die and suffer persecution for your
sake – you are My child, I died for you.
I would suffer for you. I love you this
much. Think of this death in your
music, in your choir, make it come
alive so others can hear this and realize
it is so true.

R. We celebrate and we believe. I want
to receive the Eucharist, to know Your
presence in my heart. I want your
peace and Your presence in my heart.

Jesus: Naked and I clothed you, hungry
and I feed you and you are My child,
hold My hand, know My love, I am here.
I am talking to you, it is real.
You know Me, know My presence,

I am Jesus.

 

March, 1992

Jesus: I died on the cross for you.
It is no myth, believe and
know My presence now.
Believe, believe and live in My love,
I am He who powers you, you are My
motorboat and you are being powered.
I am keeping you afloat,
I am the power that is
endless, I never run out of gas,
you can go, go, go and know you will
not drown, you will stay afloat and
stay steady in the raging waters –
My power is there keeping you, oh
so steady, hold My hand and feel
My power, know My presence,
My power, My glory, you are My
child and I love you. I am here with you
every second of your life, hold My
hand until that day in which you
will see the light and enter into
eternal glory, because you lived to
do God’s will in love. Oh beloved
of My Father, the glory that waits those
who love and serve the Lord, you will
never know, how it will be, like this
presence in your heart, like the warmth,
like the hand and I will help you do what
you need to do, I will give you your
strength and your healing, you will be
your old self now, take My hand and
do not be afraid, I am He who
comforts you and I am He who powers
you, you are My motorboat – you
won’t falter, you will be steady and
you will have power.

R. Whatever You want me to do I will do
Lord, show me Your path and give me
Your direction. I want to be Your light
to the world, I love You and
I worship You, help me
to honor You at everything I do,
help me in my music to praise
You the way You want to be praised
and spread Your love in my
being to be what I need to be
to my children. Help me Lord
to live my life the way You
want me to. Thank You for my
children and my gifts and my pleasures
and food and my everything I have.
I have been blessed by You Lord.
Thank You, thank You, Your servant.

Love Rita

 

May 8, 1992

Jesus: Pray for them, I will
strengthen you and show you the
way to walk. I will make
your enemies your footstools -
I will fill you with My grace and
love through you. I will make
you as an instrument to spread
My love. I love you, My most
dear precious child, I love you. You
are kind, and caring and giving and
loving and ask so very little in
return. I will love through
you, you are My precious
child, hold fast to Me and
never let go of Me. I love you.

 
 

March 26, 1992

Jesus: Your door is open – I will
watch over you, haven’t I always
done that? When you walk through
raging waters, you My child
I will hold your hand, don’t be
afraid, you are precious to Me.

The Spouse of the Lamb Book Entries

 

February 25, 1998 - 1st Day 

Ash Wednesday

Jesus: Do you think I acted on your soul less when I gave you the experiences of hell?

I give to you the greatest graces to know My love. I act directly on your soul. I am the Bridegroom of your soul.

R. Oh Jesus, He took me to the heights of ecstasy in Him in realizing how He is the Initiator and acts on my soul. How foolish I am indeed to think it is I who control the workings of God on my soul, when in fact He is the Bridegroom of my soul.

I see Him look at me with the greatest love, as I did once in the study, when I knew He looked at me and loved me so. I sat with a white dress and my Bridegroom looked with love on me, thinking me so beautiful to Him, me the little child of the Father in all my faults, and looking on me with such love. He stood above me as a Bridegroom dressed in black, tall and handsome, and He looked down with the most loving eyes upon me and I knew the love of the Divine Creator.

Today I knew how it was, how He acted on my soul.

I see how it is when someone really acts in love and does something for me because that person loves me.

I see myself as open, letting go, putting myself entirely in the hands of the Creator, the God I love, and the Bridegroom comes with the greatest love and His grace. He gives me Himself. My job is to be, just to be, a soul, waiting for the Bridegroom to just give me Himself in the greatest love. I am, I know it is He who acts, and when He acts His presence overtakes my soul. I am, I let go and I reminisce about all the times He just overtook my soul.

Little do I do, for it is the Bridegroom loving me, loving my soul and acting most intimately on my soul.

I sit and surrender myself entirely to Him. He is the Initiator. He is the One Who acts with His grace and NOTHING - no intimate experience, nothing here can fill the soul with this love and satisfaction.

For the Bridegroom acts and the soul is satisfied, the only desire is that it will never end. Sometimes there is such a longing and realizing the temporariness of it all. Sometimes He gives my soul such satisfaction, comfort and love, and I am filled with the greatest peace and satisfaction with less awareness of the temporariness, just peace.

Jesus: I give you the peace of the Sacred Heart of Jesus when He acts on the soul of His spouse. I am the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. I am the Spouse of your soul. I give you this satisfaction so that you will write to Me after Communion for My Mass Books for the world. This book will be entitled the Spouse of the Lamb. I will act on your soul most intimately.

And what My child is the key, but total surrender as a spouse who knows her spouse loves her and takes the love given. You, child, pray for this grace, to be possessed by the Lamb, the Bridegroom of your soul. What lesson did I teach you this day but that it is I who act upon you, you do not control My love given to you in any way. A grace is given, a grace is received.

Your total surrender is the way to most optimally allow the Bridegroom, the Lamb, to act on your soul.

Total yielding, so that you will allow yourself to be IN ME.

R. Oh my God - how to explain that which happens when You act on my soul and what I experience. Are there any words that could do this justice when the Almighty God finds favor with me most intimately, and gives Himself to me?

Jesus: My child, I act, you are passive, empty and open. Surrender and I will possess your soul with the lights of heaven so you can experience your Divine Lover most intimately. Surrender, surrender, surrender, a state of being and surrender to live in Him at the point of greatest intimacy in the Mass.

You will know days of darkness and joy as the shadows and lights fade in and out of your life and I reveal Myself most intimately to you.

I am Jesus Christ, the Bridegroom of your soul. Your hand must record these experiences for the marriage of the Lamb to the soul.

I act upon your soul most intimately.

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.

R. My beloved Jesus,

The Bridegroom of my soul. It is not I who write, but in fact, You Who write through me, to Yourself. I surrender myself and want to exist in You in such oneness that I can more optimally love You.

This is my desire to give You great love from my heart existent in You.

And this I write for 10 minutes that You will help me to love God most intimately and give myself more completely to Him.

My God, I adore You, I worship You, I love You, my beloved Spouse, the Bridegroom of my soul. I know the black Bridegroom, the one dressed as a bridegroom who wears a white robe of glory. Yes, it is the priests dressed in black that are to teach us to be the spouse of the Lamb.

  

Revelation 1:6

…and made us a Kingdom of Priests to serve his God and Father; to him, then, be glory and power for ever and ever. Amen.

  

R. And the Bridegroom comes, He summons the soul.

Oh, my Bridegroom, we pray for the wedding of the Lamb to our souls.

We pray for the spousal relationship of our souls with Our Divine God.

Jesus: I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. The life flows from My Sacred Heart to My body, the Church. Many never mention the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

What body would survive cut off from the heart? My life flows from My Heart into the body, My Church.

I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus and My Heart will reign - I am calling My people to a personal spousal relationship with God. This is the work of the Shepherds of Christ. I bless you in this mission to bring about the Reign of My Sacred Heart.

I am Jesus, the Son of God, Son of Man, the Sacred Heart, I am the beating Heart that keeps the body alive with My grace.

R. Blood and water poured forth from His most Sacred Heart. Blood a symbol of the Eucharist, water a symbol of Baptism.

He cursed the barren fig tree.

  

Revelation 6:13

…and the stars of the sky fell onto the earth like figs dropping from a fig tree when a high wind shakes it;

   

Revelation 7: 17

…because the Lamb who is at the heart of the throne will be their shepherd and will guide them to springs of living water; and God will wipe away all tears from their eyes.

  

Revelation 5: 10

and made them
    a line of kings and priests for God,
to rule the world.

             

        

March 1, 1998 - 5th Day

The Marriage of the Lamb

R. What do I write today? Since that day, February 25^th I have experienced the Bridegroom as He stands above me and strengthens me in this trial I have experienced. It has been a hellish experience to do the Father’s will, to stand firm for the truth when it would have been so much easier to laugh and to play as the world danced and I cried inside to stand behind the truth in this "Godless" world.

     They danced and played and whistled a tune on the flute and the Bridegroom was ignored at His own wedding. How indeed would it be if at the marriage the bridegroom was treated as if he were not present?

     We went to the altar, we received Him, the Lamb, the Bridegroom of our souls and then we ignored Him and went to laugh and play. We ignored Him and fed our faces.

     The tenderest love Our Divine Captain gives to us in giving Himself in the Mass. The Almighty God, the King of heaven and earth, gives Himself to us in the deepest spousal relationship and what happens here? We ignore Him and talk to mere humans with God in our breast.

     Let us make reparation to Him, Our Savior, for the ingratitude and indifference given to the King, the Lamb of God, Who was slain for our sins. They now have roped off my pew with a red chord and asked me to move my jacket as I prayed. Several ladies stand at the end of my pew and talk openly in church of the bishop to come in this church today. All the priests, the royal bridegrooms, anointed by the Lord, came out immediately after Mass and talked to the people, right in church. There was conversation and laughing at the beginning of Mass and at the end. A royal banquet, the Lamb was slain for our sins, now sacramentally made present here and who pays Him heed?

     They worship Him with fan-fare and trumpets, flutes and tambourines, but when the banquet is served, they all get up and rush from the table. Little focus is given to the King and royal Bridegroom of the soul. He is really ignored. Oh precious King, we love You, we worship You, we adore You, forever.

     I was unable to be intimately connected to Him today in a way that gave me happy feelings, but in my heart I know in the suffering there is no place to go but to Him.

     Preparation must be made. Time must be set aside for a person who is important in our lives. Time must be set aside to prepare for the Lamb, the Bridegroom of our soul. It begins with acts of surrender, saying the "Prayer for Union with Jesus", the consecration, and the "Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass".

     I love You, Jesus. In this suffering, I unite in Your passion and death. I love You, my Divine Lord, the Bridegroom of my soul.

  
 

 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

        
 

 

A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.

I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.

Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.

Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.

Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.

Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.

-Mass Book, December 27, 1995

  

March 5, 1998 - 9th Day

R. My dear Bridegroom,

     I see now the plan of the Father and that we are all children in His holy family. This is how we must see the world. It is His, we are one, He is our Father. We would not talk about our brother, we would love him. Always love him, as a brother in the holy family of the Father. We must keep our family pure. Each family is a little family of the Father's family, we are all related as the children of Eve, but this life in the Spirit, this relationship is all in the Spirit. If we understand generations and blood lines, we should clearly understand the connections of this family living as children of God. As we read in John 1:13, "who were born not from human stock or human desire or human will, but from God Himself."
 

     He is the Initiator. We are the ones responding to His initiative. He is the life. He is the light.

John 1: 3-8
Through him all things came into being,
not one thing came into being
    except through him.
What has come into being in him was life,
life that was the light of men;
and light shines in darkness,
and darkness could not overpower it.

A man came, sent by God.
His name was John.
He came as a witness,
to bear witness to the light,
so that everyone might believe
    through him.
He was not the light,
he was to bear witness to the light.

     Thus it states: The witness of John (John 1:23)

So he said, 'I am, as Isaiah prophesied:

A voice of one that cries in the desert:
Prepare a way for the Lord.
Make his paths straight!'

     All division will be finished, the hills leveled, the valleys filled in for there will be one flock and one Shepherd, one family of the Father.

     The Son, the Word, reveals the Father, thus: John 1:1,3 he begins,

In the beginning was the Word:
the Word was with God
and the Word was God.

Through him all things came into being,
not one thing came into being
    except through him.

     Zachariah was struck dumb for not believing, John was the voice to prepare the way of the Lord.

     I saw John the Baptist in Conyers, Georgia April 14 or 15, 1993. I had experienced the loss of my voice, I was struck speechless.

     The voice that came forth was His to prepare the way for the Lord of Hosts.

     His voice speaks in these teachings, the voice of the Good Shepherd in Father Carter's and my revelations.

     Here is John's testimony: '...Look, there is the lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world.' (John 1: 29)

 

March 6, 1998 - 10th Day

First Friday

R. My beloved Spouse, the Bridegroom of my soul,

     The days go by with such swiftness, yet my focus is entirely on being one with Thee. The days fade in and out in shades of lights and darks, some days I receive immense insight into Your mysteries, some days I am left to tremendous suffering, wanting You so deeply in my soul and not experiencing Your favor.

     On this First Friday, I recall vividly the vision of Your precious Heart I hold in my heart. I see it clearly, red and filled with fire, and I know the warmth and glow of Your sacred divine love.

     Oh, my Sacred Heart, indeed, Thy love is most sacred. Yet even though I do not ponder as I should on the endless fires of love emitted from your treasured Heart, I have a constant awareness of this love which leads me to march forth in this battle of helping to win souls over for the Kingdom.

     Little is accomplished if I nurse my wounds on those dark days and sit in a corner waiting for a great favor from You.

     I walk those shaded days as You walked with the cross on Your back, but my awareness of Your Father and His plan for salvation is so limited, and I struggle tremendously as I am pressed on as I travel on my journey to the end of the day.

     And then a day of glory comes and You look upon me, my Bridegroom, and give me great favors and allow me to have a day of resurrection from the doom and the struggle.

     And how did He walk the earth? He walked it too, in dark and light days. Days in which they chased Him and wanted to kill Him, in which they called Him crazy, in which He sweat the saving Blood because of His anguish, in which He was tempted, in which He wept, in which He loved Mary His Mother and Mary Magdalene, in which He raised His dear friend Lazarus from the dead, in which He preached about the Kingdom to His followers.

     Days of light, days of darkness, but He entered the tomb and came forth victorious in the end.

     He rose to give us life, His wounds were glorified, the victory was won.

     My Bridegroom, You give to me Yourself this day. I am one in the glorified Lord in the most intimate way. The banquet is prepared. The Lamb has been slain. Now we reap the glory of the risen Lord. We receive the gift of life in Him.

     LIGHT and darkness. He is the Bread of Life, He comes to feed the starved soul with Himself. Our most treasured gift, our most treasured Friend, Jesus Christ, the Bridegroom of our soul, gives Himself as a sacrifice that we will share in His life most abundantly.

     I love You, Jesus Christ my Bridegroom, come and possess my soul.

 

March 7, 1998 - 11th Day

First Saturday

R. My dear Spouse,

     You take us to Your mountain top and show us Your light and the world slumbers and sleeps and the throng below the hill shakes the tree and the dead fruit falls, but they do not see it.

     We hear the voice of the Father speak, "This is My beloved Son in Whom I am well pleased." and we hear the voice of the Good Shepherd speak as He reveals His Father to us and His plan for the salvation of all men living according to His will.

     The voice of the Good Shepherd will be heard as men listen to Jesus. In this Movement, Shepherds of Christ, we pray for our priests, the Church and the world.

     

March 11, 1998 - 15th Day

Spouse of the Lamb

R. My beloved Spouse, since the beginning of Lent, I have experienced Him as the Man in black, as the Bridegroom. Today, as never before, I have experienced His body. A real man offered sacrifice that Holy Thursday. I saw His body on the cross as I did on December the 5th, 1996 - a real body of a man. And I recalled another time, I think it was on Friday in Lent, when I experienced Him dead on the cross at St. Vincent’s, or almost dead. I think His mouth may have been moving then. I know I have experienced Him at the point of death three times at St. Vincent’s. I have had other experiences with Him dead or at the point of death on the cross there. So to see Him on December the 5th, 1996, was to dig into an already open wound from before and I could not hardly stand it because it was so vivid, Jesus, life-size, before me. What I experience mostly in this Mass was His humanity. In great joy of the immense revelation, I realized He had a flesh body, arms of flesh. I used to see Him give me Himself as the Jesus on the front of the Apostle’s Manual and it made me cry. I would see His glorified wounds and know Him this way and love Him. Now, since Lent, I see Him as a Man with a body and flesh. He is the celebrant of the Mass. He is the sacrifice. I am aware of a Man in a black suit, a Bridegroom. I experienced the Divine Lord. I know Him. I love Him. But to see Him in the body of a man offering Mass and dying for me makes Him so real. So I cried. I see the Lamb of God. He is Jesus. Jesus was a real man. Jesus was alive like me and He talked and He walked and He called to others. This has touched me to great tears. I heard, “Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.” I received His Body, His Blood. I received the Savior of the world. When I see Jesus, celebrating the Mass through the priest, Jesus goes into the priest and I realize He is here this day in the priest. Such an honor to be a priest celebrating the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. My intense suffering to want Him so much, now becomes greatly lessened because I see Him with us this day acting through a priest. He is so present. He is not far off. He is with us today.

    But I hear Jesus say, “Where are the priests that will teach the people to be the spouse of the Lamb?” For He said, “The old order of priests will pass away and there will be a new order of priests.” It takes the priests being so one in Him, united in a spousal relationship with Christ, in order for the people in the pews to receive this immense connection with God. It is up to us to pray and to pray and to pray and to pray, for Jesus wants a priesthood in the Shepherds of Christ Movement that will train the priests of this world to celebrate the Mass as spouse of the Lamb, that will teach the people about the Bridegroom, the Lamb of God.

    I was at the crucifixion today. I experienced being there. It was being there. I was on this line where I was not here at all. I was totally removed from my surrounding and in immense peace with the situation, wanting only to remain there forever. When I receive Him in the Eucharist, I could hardly stand it.

 

March 19, 1998 (Excerpt)

Passion

R. Passion is a way the devil can lead a holy soul to death. Jesus calls us to holy love. He calls us to brotherly love, love rooted in God.

     Passion is a way the devil uses to drive a holy soul to death.

     When appropriate, for example at certain times when we pray together, Jesus wants us to hold hands, to join in unity and to touch one another in a proper way. Satan works in the thoughts of holy souls to create passions and desires that are not to God's liking.

     Jesus gives us the Commandment, "Thou shall not commit adultery." He asks us to relax and be one and then asks us to be on our guard. He asks us for love as the Virgin Mary had for St. Joseph and for others. Holy love is holy. It is not rooted in passion and desires, it is rooted in love of God and Godly love for each other. If one truly loves himself and another, he would not put himself and the other in an occasion of sin that could lead to the death of the soul. One that loves would not wish the other to sin.

     Time spent before the tabernacle is to give honor and glory to God. God is the focus of this time before the tabernacle. God is there to unite hearts to Himself and to others.

     God gives us the Commandment to love God and one another. We are to love in holy love.

     Satan can create passions, lights, feelings that will lead a holy soul into sin. Satan creates appetites within the soul to be improperly satisfied with food, alcohol, sex, indulgence. Jesus does not want us to be fearful. He wants us to help to bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart. You must ask yourself, does this relationship have as its primary purpose to give honor and glory to God? Anything that would lead to anything sinful is not giving honor and glory to God.

     I state clearly. Satan will try to lead some astray with passions. Our role is to help bring the world into oneness in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Satan can trick a couple engaging in prayer by passions and feelings. We must focus on the work at hand. Being led away by Satan harms the whole Movement. Be diligent, thrifty, and loving, praying always for the gifts of the Spirit.  end of spouse of lamb

 

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.
