Prayer for Grace for our CountryDear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

R. God showed us the sufferings of Jesus, how
Jesus had to suffer to bring us to new
life.
God has given us the cross to bear
and in carrying the cross in dignity
we follow in the footsteps of Jesus
who suffered so for us.
Dear God we thank You for all
Your gifts given to us every day and
we praise You.

Jesus:
Focus on Heaven.December 17, 1991
R.
On December 17, 1991, I saw a vision of Jesus’ Heart on fire after communion. He said – I didn’t know how this Heart would lead people to His Sacred Heart.
December 17, 1991
Jesus:
I am Jesus. I have spoken as never before, you will spread My love to all souls on this earth.R.
The vision of Jesus’ Heart on fire I had in the same pew at All Saints Church, December 17, 1991. The heart that is on the Second Blue Book. March 26, 1996, I had in the same pew on the other end of the pew toward the center aisle, the first pew on the right side of the church as I faced the altar.His Burning Heart
R.
I was alone in All Saints Church after Mass and Communion, in front of the tabernacle, when I saw the Sacred Heart. It was red around the outside, then a layer of yellow and then the brightest light in the center. I felt heat and it looked like an open furnace.I thought about it all day and it instantly gave me peace and warmth in my heart. This is the purpose of these letters – to draw hearts to the ardent on-fire love of Jesus. I received the following message that day:
“Open your heart to the fire of God’s love. He is ablaze in your heart. He wants to dwell in you and love you and others through you. Love God, yourself and one another and experience the fire set aglow in your heart and experience the warmth of His love.”
December 1991
R.
Please my sweet Jesus, help me, my sweet Jesus.
About December 31, 1991
R.
Please help me my God to know Thy holy will, now Lord Jesus, I am Your child, You know my hurts, You are my God and I place my trust in You, I will follow Your law, show me Your way, nothing is too great for You, I my Lord, place my Trust and my heart in You, You have created me in Your image and likeness. You have lavished me in Your love, with dignity and honor You clothed me, given me rule over all, Your sun and Your moon give me light and guide me in this very night and I am indeed alive with Thy holy presence which I would not have experienced except for this conflict. Thank You for Your love and Your peace. I am Your child, I am blessed and gifted by You. My children are indeed great gifts. You are my light, You are my strength when I am bowed down, You are my hope and my rock, Your sun and Your moon give me light this very night, I will love because others need me. You are indeed my shield, my fortress, my army against the wicked one and You will not be shattered by any attempts to tear me down I will be fortified and strengthened by You and filled. God is as alive in me as me sitting here. I feel His presence, seeing God all in white in eternity His arms outstretched and saying, “My child come to Me for I will give you rest”, I see God and feel His presence in my heart – He is as alive. I see Jesus standing His arms outstretched – saying “Come to Me, come to Me, all who are weary of heart, place your yoke upon My shoulder and I will give you rest” weed out my unrest and when asked, fill me with the peace and joy that only You can give, why go there I know my undying source comes from You my God – my Father, my Savior, my sanctifier and You live in me now – I am Your child, I am blessed, You have carved me in the palm of Your hand. You have called me blessed and holy and You dwell in my heart because I asked You and You come, I am Your servant, I am Yours, God. Bless and keep Your servant forever. I want to love others through You, I want to do Your will, I love You, God.
January 1992
R.
I called and He answered me,
And I come to You and You heard the pleas
of my heart, You gave me a clean heart and
renewed my spirit and I was made whole.
You washed me of my pain and entered
my heart with a thundering bolt and
washed me from
my sins. I am sorry
for my offenses against You and I ask
Your pardon for my sins. With love
and dignity You washed my
heart and gave me Your forgiveness
that I may ask the Lord for His
blessings on my soul and heal me
of my offense.
January 8, 1992
R.
Dear Jesus,My heart cries out to You, Oh Lord hear my prayer, for I was hungry and You gave me to eat, naked and You clothed me, for in my desperation, I cried out and the Lord heard my pleas, He made my enemies my footstool and gave me love and peace and joy.
January 1992
R.
Dear Jesus,Jesus:
Come to Me, come to Me, all of youI am your God and you are My most precious
child, I love you in your suffering and your
pain and I am close to you. I am the God of
your children, they are My children, you
needn’t worry, I am there for them. I am
their Father and brother and I love them as
much as I love you and I am watching out
for them. They will be okay. You are
not their sole responsibility. I am
working in you, make yourself
putty, make yourself able to be
molded and I will do the work. I am
your most merciful Jesus, in My
merciful Heart, I see their pain,
I will guide you – be loose, be
attentive, listen and pray. Your life
is unfolding and I am your God, I
am with you and your children every
step of the way. I created all My children,
I love them all, you do not have to be god to
anyone, live your life, I am watching out and
caring for you, I want to carry you, to
nurture, love and work My light in you
to dispel any darkness and your fear –
My light is a beam in your heart –
feel its warmth and love and in ever
surrounding closeness, you are indeed
I love you. Jesus
January 17, 1992
Come to Me in Your Pain
Jesus:
Do not go only to man, most especially come to Me. I am the only One Who can completely minister to you when your heart is broken. The worst pains are the pains of the heart. Stay plugged into My source. Know I am here with you every minute, every second of your life, and I will be there always.Come unto Me all who are weary and I will comfort you. Do not be afraid for I will gently show you the way of the Lord.
I will be your rock. I will be your fortress. I will not leave you ever. I am there. My Heart is an undying source of fire and warmth and power.
I am your power. I am your strength. I am your God. I am there every instant of your life.
R.
I can never live the moments of this day again. When I go to bed, today is gone forever. I must choose to treasure each moment because it is the only moment I have and it only lasts one moment.
January 17, 1992
R.
Dear Jesus,I want to be close to You and feel Your
presence in my heart. I ask You to open
my heart to the fire of Your love and know
Your promptings at this moment in my
life. You are my God and I am Your child and
my way in life is useless without Your
direction. My life would be so full of fear
without having the relationship that You
have given me with You. The devil tempts me
to think I am unworthy. Most Sacred Heart of
Jesus I put my trust in Thee.
No matter what day and what minute it is, You
Jesus:
I am your rock, I am your strength,I have all the power.
All power comes from Me –
My heart is an undying source
Jesus
January 17, 1992
Jesus:
I am all powerfulThey can weave a web of their own making –
a web they are caught in
fallacious reasoning from the evil one,
impurities keeps them stuck.
What is a promise from a man
who rocks with untruths –
full of sin
Some seek power over others so
they like watching others suffer.
You are plugged into My source –
You are plugged into an endless
source –
You know My light –
You know the fire of My love,
You know My warmth,
You know My ever vigilant Heart –
My Heart is burning for love of you –
I am your God –
You should have no gods before Me
I am here with you now in your heart –
I love you so much –
Come Holy Spirit
Beg for the gift of Wisdom –
Beg the Spirit of God to fill you –
The devil wants your power –
Some people want to be over authority,
but authority under God
People who seek power over authority –
seek problems –
they are challenging structure –
God has put in place –
DISORDER –
Where I put order –
Fallen man
DISORDER
My power never runs out!
It is an endless source of power
R.
I remember a message I receivedHe said there won’t be a stone left
on a stone. I was falling asleep as I wrote.
Then it happened, I lost my voice and
I couldn’t breathe or talk or sing,
He helped me to let go of my old jobs.
It was so difficult, that was
why I was crying on my knees that
spring break March 1993. I was a
mother, wife, teacher ... I couldn’t talk.
I was a singer in a choir without a voice.
He helped me to let go of the things
He wanted me to let go of. He wanted
me to work for Him.
It was a time of great suffering and
struggle teaching at the two colleges,
12 hours all together each semester
My teachers there both helped me a lot
to be able to do what I had to do to
get the music Jesus gave me down and
get it copy-writed.
It felt as if there wasn’t a stone
left on a stone.
I totally had to give up all my jobs
because of my voice.
January 27, 1992
Jesus:
My child listen to My voice, heed MyI love you Jesus
R.
This was the message I fell asleep at the
His voice came in me in rosaries and
writings.
I can never live the
moments of this day again.
When I go to bed
today is gone forever.
I must choose to treasure
each moment because
it is the only moment I have and
it only lasts one moment.
Song:
Live This Day
Live in the Moment
Today’s Gospel in its story certainly points ahead to Jesus in His Passion and death. And as we read passages such as this during the Lenten season, we are reminded once again that the Church in her Liturgy of the Word gives us an opportunity to undergo a purification, an ever deepening cleansing of ourselves so that we may be a more fit instrument for receiving the great graces which are to be given to us at the time of the Resurrection memorial on Easter. And so all in all, Lent is a time of purification to prepare us for ever-greater gifts of the Lord. It’s a time of self-discipline, a time to renew our efforts to be self-disciplined in the service of the Lord. Self-discipline is an aspect of purification. And I suggest that one of the most difficult acts of self-discipline in the spiritual journey is to concentrate on the present moment. We have a very strong tendency to disregard the importance of the present moment by focusing in a wrong way on the past or in a wrong way on the future. There are proper occasions for thinking of the past and the future. For example, we have to learn from the past and we have to prepare for the future, but our great emphasis has to be upon the present. There is a Latin axiom which says, age quod agis, age quod agis, which means: do what you are doing, concentrate on the present. And of course we are familiar with that term in the history of spirituality: the sacrament of the present moment. And so the discipline of Lent certainly encourages us to include in a deeper self-discipline a greater determination to get as much as we can out of the present moment. People with a terminal illness have an opportunity as they prepare for death for increased prayer, contrition, love of God. However, some are taken very, very quickly. But for those who have the opportunity of knowing with some certainty the time of their death, I’m sure as they look back on their lives, they are saddened by the many times they did not use time and opportunities for the service of the Lord properly, and are overjoyed at those times in which they did use the present opportunity properly. A great means we have of living in the present properly is a greater focus upon our Lord. For if I have that awareness of the fact I am united with Jesus here and now, why should I be concerned so much about the future or the past? Yes, a great help in living in the present and deriving all the good we can from it for ourselves and others is an ever greater focus upon Jesus, because the more I focus upon Jesus and the more I live with Him in the present moment, the more I am satisfied with the present moment. And so let us in our Lenten activity resolve to grow in that self-discipline - which is very difficult at times - to really live in the presence with the fullness of our being as much as is possible, with the help of God’s grace. Now is the day of salvation. Now is the day of salvation. end of Father Carter's homily

Guiding Light
- Reflect on the Word
Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle
B — The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and
reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal
concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a
sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this
day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We
believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as
priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and
Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our
congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand.

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A — The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 | ||
|
Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C — In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |
Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B — At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |

Guiding Light - The Word Alive in Our Hearts. - Cycle A (partial) — Homilies by the Reverend Joe Robinson given at St. Boniface Church in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is a tremendous honor Fr.
