Messenger:        Jesus wants me to do a sorrowful rosary.

  

Sorrowful Rosary

  

Song:  Lord Let Me Walk

   

The Agony of Our Lord in the Garden

    1.  Jesus speaks:  When I was in My Passion My thoughts were of you.

    2.  Jesus speaks:  I saw before Me in the garden all the suffering that I was about to undergo but I saw you in your yes, in your love given, in your life given and day after day even though it was very difficult you kept going on and saying yes, yes Lord, yes I love You, yes Lord. The greatest saints have had very many hard jobs to do. I have given to you great grace and some suffering, but I have outpoured My richest love to you and you responded with the love of giving yourself to Me. Oh My apostles, if you say no to this mission who will I send for I have trained you and taught you and I call you and I want you to come and to spread the mission on to the people of this earth and those to come. Do not under estimate the importance of this mission ever. Do not crawl in a box and let the ants crawl over the box and hide your head, come out and see the sun. Say yes in all that you do. Say yes to every moment of your life. Do not give into the darkness that satan creates for he wants you to stumble and to fall. He comes with his rope to tie you up and let you fall on your nose. Oh My precious and dear one look into My face on the building and know that I appear there out of greatest love for you.

    3.  Jesus speaks:  And My call goes out to many and I am ignored.

    4.  Jesus speaks:  Many have made money their god and they do not even know for it is the way of life for many of the people of the earth. It needs to swing back so that people will be able to know what is really important but they base their lives on riches and pride, pleasure, fame, a good name. Oh My precious ones hold stead tight to this mission. Do not falter in what I have asked you to do. Do not give into satan for he wants to trip you up and to set you out to dry. You are given a free will. Pray every day, take time every day to be alone with Me that you will know My will for you. It is so easy to be led astray. Oh My precious one I want you to help Me to do this work.

    5.  Jesus speaks:  And it goes like this night, day, night, day, night, day, night, day. Did you not learn the lesson of the cross and the lesson of the resurrection. Did you not learn the suffering and the victory? Did you not learn, did you not learn yet when I have given you so many experiences? But you do not know as if you had a blindfold around your head, you do not see. And they tell you again and again and again in so many ways and yet you need to be reminded daily of the paschal mystery - death resurrection, death resurrection, night day. Look at the sky, it is dark and it is light and it is dark and it is light. And how is it in your lives that you have suffering and joy. But always the joy of My love for you should reign in your heart despite the greatest sufferings the joy of knowing Me, the joy of giving yourself to Me, the joy of knowing how much I love you is always in your heart.

    6.  Jesus speaks:  Did you watch the grass come up year after year and it turns green? Do you watch that here? Do you wonder? Or do you just take it for granted just like you take the sun coming up every day, hum, for granted? The darkness comes and you fail to even notice that the Creator moves the light and the darkness, the rain, the sun, the sleet, the grass. I clothe the birds of this air and the little bugs that fly about. Oh you, you who are so precious to Me, you fail to see so many things and yet you can see the tiniest speck of dirt on the ground. What is wrong with your vision that you see the dirt on the ground but miss the beauty of My creation.

    7.  Jesus speaks:  There once was a man who ordered a lawn care. They came out and they sprayed and his grass was green and it looked beautiful. It was like a carpet. And he looked out his window and he prided himself because he was so glad for his endeavor. There was another man who tried to do it himself and his grass was brown and then he burned it and then it just was a mess. The man who ordered the lawn care went into the yard and saw the man with the burned grass. He went over there, he could have put his hands in his lapels with such pride and he looked down upon him. And he said, "huh, your grass, humph, what did you do to it?" And the man said, "I just do not know, I tried to do it myself and it seemed like it got worse and worse all the time." The man turned around and went into his house and looked at his grass and he was filled with pride and joy and he jumped up and down. What is wrong with men that they look at others who they think are not as good as them and they jump with joy? Do you not know that they are your brothers, that I gave My life for them the same as you? How silly it is that one could have so much pride over his grass and not be concerned about the spiritual matters of his life? But My children I tell you this, it goes on all day, foolishness. Foolishness you say. Did you ever see a bird with a long neck that buries their head in the ground? What do they see down there? Is that a silly story too? How many people do you think that think they have the necks that see so many things really take their head like a long-necked bird and bury it beneath the surface of the earth wagging their feathers behind them.

    8.  Jesus speaks:  Open your eyes that you will see, pray with a heart that is filled with love, ask to be taught how to be likened to Me. For you are so blind you do not even see many of the things that you do day after day, minute after minute. Oh you think you are so wise, and you are so narrow-minded. I can open up your eyes and outpour My wisdom to you, but would you listen anyway? So many are so fixed in their ways, they like the way that they do it and they really don't want to change. They don't really want to go that extra mile to be nice. It's too easy to be so proud over your green grass and look at the neighbor's burned brown grass next door and say, humph, I'm better than him.

    9.  Jesus speaks:  And if you are better at one thing than another is it because of something that you did? Or do you praise your heavenly Father and thank Him and tell Him how much you love Him and ask Him for help to use that talent that you were given to promote His honor and glory?

   10. Hail Mary...

Glory Be

    

      

The Scourging at the Pillar

1.  Jesus speaks:  Did you ever look at the littlest flower and see how intricate it is with such beauty to the smallest detail.

2.  Jesus speaks:  Sometimes some people make little doll houses, with little beds, little furniture and they care about the house so much that they almost climb into that world and they forget where they are. Every place they go they are thinking about how to fix up their little house. It may be a wonderful hobby and it may help you in some other things in your life, but when you fix up the little house and it becomes your obsession to the point that is all that what you think about, isn't that sort of silly? For you can't live in the little house and you can you can only look at it so long. What are you doing here? Are you fixing up your little house? Do you think you will be here forever? Do you not see how the flower withers and fades and the sun comes up and goes down? Do you not see how the baby soon turns into an old man and the children follow close behind? Think of the story of the lady that was obsessed with her little house, that's all she thought about was her little house, it was perfect. She thought about it all day and all night, she dreamed about it. She got so obsessed she even changed some of the furniture weekly. But there was a lack of joy in her heart because she could not use the little house. She surely could not go inside the door, her foot would not even fit in the door but she sure was obsessed with that little house. How foolish you are not to see the big picture for you fix up your houses, measure your fat cells, stay here to make everything so perfect that your life will last you think, last and last. And you do not know that a wind can come and blow it all away. It is important to take care of yourself and to build a home but it is foolish to be obsessed with the material things of this earth and not to see the wider vision.

    3.  Jesus speaks:  Did you see Me at the pillar? Did you see them tear My flesh? Did you see the blood go into the air? Could you have withstood this for the one you loved? When they came with their heavy whips and they tore pieces of flesh from My body My thoughts were of you. And many think so little of Me that they ignore God their Creator, they ignore God. How foolish indeed.

    4.  Jesus speaks:  The sky was blue and the little bird. He was flying close, close to a little tree and a little boy went out and he saw the beautiful bird and he thought the bird was so close that he could almost touch him but he was afraid. The bird was blue. And he called to his mother in a nearby kitchen window and he said, "Mama, mama, come, mama" and at that the bird flew away. He thought he could have touched the bird, but when he called, it startled the bird and he flew away. How many people today reach high into the sky to touch the bird and it flies away? How many birds have you reached for, and reached for and reached for which were not the birds that were really in the Father's will only to watch them fly away. The little boy sat on a tree stump and he began to cry and the mother came over and she said, "My son it is very hard to touch the birds. I don't know if you will ever be able to catch a wild bird and it might not be good for you. But the bird was beautiful to look at wasn't he? He was blue, so beautiful you said." My child there are many things that you see that are beautiful and that you want to hold and that you want to have, but it is not the Father's will that you catch the wild blue birds. You will learn in your life, some birds might be the right ones, others may not be right at all.

    5.  Jesus speaks:  Many people of today look at the beauty of a woman or a man and they think because they are beautiful that they have the right to touch and to behold. I stood at the pillar and they tore My flesh for many of the people that reached for the beauty that they had no right to touch and behold.

    6.  Jesus speaks:  Now I speak to you of blood and blue birds and many may say what do they have in common. What it is, is a parable. And I will tell you - you cannot reach for all the things that are blue and beautiful and try to behold them. If you reach for the things that are not of God's will you will suffer in your life. You may not think that you will suffer, but you will suffer. You will make it more difficult for yourself for being willful and reaching for those things that are not good for you. To My death on the cross I hung for love of you. I am the Divine God, I am truly present and with you in this room, no less present than the day I hung on the cross or the day I knelt in the garden or the day I stood at the pillar. And I speak to you to tell you these parables that you may see and study them for future learning, for I am God and I tell you secrets to help you to have happiness and life rooted in Me, greater life, life that will lead you to everlasting life where there you will taste of My love and be embraced by the Divine God.

    7Jesus speaks:  Now there was a dirty river that was strong and moving, moving so strong and there was a calm river close by. A man went to cross the river. In the strong river there were many rocks that were being washed down stream. He wanted to get to the other side so much that he tried to cross that river that was so hard and so strong. There was another man and he felt that he should get to the other side but the river was very calm and very easy to cross. I just watch you. You create logs and rocks and waves and dirt and then you say, "Now I'm going to get to the other side," and then the struggle in the crossing. And I just watch and say, "Oh My child it would have been so easy had you just done God's will."

    8.  Jesus speaks:  Little dogs have little houses, some are red and some are tan. If you were on the street and you saw a doghouse that was red, would you see it right away? Would you see the tan house right away? If the dog came out of the tan house barking vehemently and ran after your leg, would you see the house then? You may say to yourself, "The tan house was there and it even had a sign that said 'Fargo' but I did not see the house and the next thing I knew he was chasing me down the street. I wish I would have seen the house because he scared me and my heart was beating and I thought he was going to bite me and it was just an awful experience. Dogs should have red houses so that when you walk down the street you'll know that there's a big ferocious dog in that red house and you can be prepared." Oh My little one, how do you think the devil comes to you? He does not come in a red house, he comes in the tan house that you hardly see. He may even wear a sign that says 'devil' but somehow or ever you just don't see and guess what - he is out to attack and to get you. The devil is filled with deception and lies and he is real. And so what is all this saying to you? I stood at the pillar and they whipped Me and they tore My flesh and I did it for love of you. Do you know what it is to love someone? I loved you. And I knew you would make mistakes and I knew you would fail but My love, so great for you, that I wanted you with Me for all eternity and I let them tear My body and beat My flesh. And I warned you of the dog in the tan house but you would not listen. You went right past that house and almost stuck your leg in. I gave you My commandments. And you try to stretch them and see them all different ways, when they were so clear. But you said if my wife doesn't love me, then it's alright for me to go get another woman and to sneak around because it's her fault, things like that. And the commandment was there as big as could be. But you saw it your way and you went past the tan house and then there was a new baby from the second lady. And then that baby grew and suffered it's whole life. I give you My commandments that you will be happy. You can cross the water if you want with all the rocks and the wood and the waves but a lot of that rocks and woods and waves you did yourself. And I'll tell you this very clearly, that the devil is real, and he is there to trick you and to lead you astray.

    9.  Hail Mary

 10.  Hail Mary

  

Glory Be

Jesus speaks:  There was a married couple and they had lots of seeds and they went out and they planted lots of fruit in their garden. There was a lady and her mind wandered and instead of her planting the seeds in the garden with her husband, she went next door and planted the seeds in the garden of the man next door. Now when the time comes that the fruit comes forth, how should she pick the fruit from the vine? If the man's wife comes home what should she do? Isn't that a silly story.

                

        

The Crowning with Thorns

1.  Jesus speaks:  I want you to sing to Me songs of praise and love. I want you to honor Me as King. And yet I came to this earth and they pounded a crown of thorns into My head and I bled for all the sins that the men would commit with their heads, sins of pride and hatred, thoughts that they would give into and hurt others because of their greed and selfishness and lust. I am Jesus the Son of God and they came to Me and they mocked Me and they spit on Me and they took the crown and the thorns went into My head and the blood ran into My eyes and My mouth. It was not a pretty sight but when you love someone you give out of love for them. I gave for love of you. Many today use My Name in vain. How I suffered for the men and the way that they would use My Name. When you say My Name in prayer you give to Me great joy. When you sing the Name Jesus with love and praise, I am filled with joy. There are so many today, you do not even know how My Name is defaced on your media and by senseless men. Some whose hearts are filled with anger as if they are testing Me to see if I would bring My hand on them and yet I just say one thing. When you cross the river do you go to the one that is strong and filled with debris? Or do you go to the calm one? Men that beep their horns and shake their fists and do gestures that are very unholy, really hurt themselves. And every time that you hurt others you are doing those things to Me.

2.  Song:  I Am the Bread of Life

3.  Sing:  Ave Maria, Ave Maria 
   
  Jesus speaks:  I am a God of miracles.

4.  Sing:  King of Glory
     Sing:  To Jesus Christ Our Sovereign King
   
  Messenger:  Dear God we honor You, we worship You, we love You and we thank You for the sufferings that You under went for our sins.

5.  Jesus speaks:  There once was a little green bush and a little boy came out every day and he played by the little green bush. One day he came out and the little green bush was gone and he went back into his house and he cried to his mother, "Mama, Mama, Mama where did that little green bush where I use to play every day go?" And she said, "Well honey I'm sorry, but it was not on our property. It was really on the other man's property and when you played you were playing on our property but it was the other man's green bush. And I'm sorry that he took the green bush down but there are some things that you have to give up in life." Later on that afternoon the little boy found out that his grandma had died. Life goes on in cycles. I give you one another to love and to help each other, to spread My Kingdom and to be with Me forever. But just like the little green bush and the little boy's grandma, life goes on. And you plant the seeds here below and sometimes others have to tend to those seeds after you are gone but you never stop, you keep on going because that you know that life goes on and on and on in heaven and you do all that you can to promote My Kingdom for your life here is so temporary. It is like the lady with the little house, she kept working on her little house and working on her little house and working on her little house and she never could put one foot in the door.

6.  Jesus speaks:  But the little boy would not let go. And he went outside several days later when he saw the person next door that owned the bush and he went up to him and he said, "You know" he said, "I loved to play there and the bush gave me shade and I was so happy and one day I went out there and you took the bush away. Did you not know that I played there?" And the man said to him, "I really don't care."

7.  Jesus speaks:  It isn't like that, that you live in the world and you can decide that you are not going to care what happens to someone else. It isn't that the old man or the old lady that go to church should just think about themselves and their family and pray as if they live in an isolated island. You must do all that you can to show the world a wider vision that what they do today in their spiritual life and how their children grow to follow the vocation that they have been given will affect the lives of people to come for all the centuries after them. It isn't like that, you are all connected.

8.  Jesus speaks:  And when they beat Me and I suffered and I hung on the cross and I died, I died for each and every soul.

9.  Jesus speaks:  Little children are so precious and they are being taught so many unclean things. You must pray as never before as I have directed and begin the prayer chapters for you pray fervently for your priests for they need these prayers and the Church needs the prayers, and the world. You can't say to yourself, " well it's too hard to get a prayer chapter going here, they don't want to do that." You have to keep trying. You are the ones I have called to spread this to the future generations, to tell them about My Movement Shepherds of Christ. It is only in its infancy stages. Tell them, tell them Rita, tell them what I tell you now.

Glory Be

        

      

Jesus Carries His Cross

1.  Jesus speaks:  Now I just want to tell you a little story. When you go out to the parking lot there is the possibility that your car will not start. And after futile attempts to try to make it go and your desire to get home, if you look around and no one is there will you pick your car up on your back and carry it to the gas station because you want to get home today? You say, "Well Jesus I can't carry a car." I carried My cross to the hill of Calvary and it was heavier than any car. It was laden with the sins of the world and when I fell and it fell on Me, on My back, My chin hit the ground. I am the Almighty God and I got up and I moved on. Now I ask you today to get up when it is difficult and to move on. Some people sit down as soon as it becomes difficult. They get into their feelings and they drop the ball. Do you know what happens in the game, if it's a baseman and he's running from second to third base and then all of a sudden because he sees that there's a little pressure coming at him from a few directions, he just drops the ball and sits there. What would the crowd do at such a player and would he lose his job? What do I do with you when you are going from second to third base and satan is pressing in and I have a deadline and then you say, "Whew, this is too hard." And you sit down right there and drop the ball.

2.  Jesus speaks:  Now a man went out and he wore a cap and he always wore it so that the flap was sort of to the side and back. A little girl came up and she said to the man, she said, "Mister, your hat's crooked." And he became very angry at her and he started to curse the little girl and said "Who are you, you smart little girl to come up here and talk to me like that?" Sometimes from the mouths of babes you are told the very thing that needs to change in your lives. And you run them away and do exactly what is like logs and rocks floating down the rough river.

3.  Jesus speaks:  I carried My cross to the hill of Calvary, there I mounted it and I died for love of you. I died for you. I died for you.

4.  Jesus speaks:  My cross was so heavy it was laden with the sins of the world. The crosses I give to you can be very heavy, some maybe not so heavy. Crosses come in all sizes but in your heart should be the underlying love and joy that Jesus your Savior loves you so much. He carried His cross to the hill of Calvary and He died for love of you. Keep that thought ever before your mind and your joy should be filled always even in great suffering. I carried My cross when it was so heavy and I got up when I thought I could not hardly get up but I knew that I could because of My love for you.

5.  Hail Mary

6.  Hail Mary

7.  Jesus speaks:  I carried My cross to the hill of Calvary, there I mounted it, there I hung for 3 agonizing hours to My death on the cross. I shed the last drop of My Blood and gave the last beat of My Heart for you.

Glory Be

      

          

The Crucifixion

1.  Jesus sings:  I died for you, I died for you.

2.  Jesus speaks:  Your life is so important for the souls.

3.  Jesus speaks:  Don't put all your hope in the little doll house.

4.  Jesus speaks:  Have quiet time every day to come and to communicate with Me. You do not want ferocious rivers filled with rocks and debris that you make yourselves.

5.  Jesus speaks:  Remember that satan can be a little dog house - inside a ferocious lion that you do not even see. Ask for eyes to see the ways that satan can trip you up.

6.  Jesus speaks:  You can't hold on to people and places always forever. Sometimes you have to let go.

7.  Jesus speaks:  I hung for 3 agonizing hours on the cross. I watch you, many of you cannot wait a second. You act, sometimes, to cause greater trouble in your life because you are impatient. While I am working in your life after you pray you do something to botch the matters up.

8.  Jesus speaks:  Impatience is a problem.

9.  Jesus speaks:  Lack of love, lack of faith, lack of being committed to My Movement. Give yourself every day. Read your little prayer every day. Fr. Carter told you that everyday he prayed and prayed for the grace to live up to his vocation. You must pray for the grace to live up to your vocation. You are at battle and the evil one wants you to stop. So many people have turned away because they have given in, because they have not prayed. Your problems in many cases were caused by those who gave into the evil one and now live in pain.

10.  Jesus speaks:  Oh that the devil really did come in a red suit with a pitch fork but some would still ignore him.

 

Jesus speaks:  He comes that you will suffer and that you will weave a web of destruction. He comes and he wants to take your soul home to hell with him. How many people of the earth today do not even realize the workings of the evil one? They go by the tan dog house every day. Even when the dog comes and bites their leg, they just don't see.

Hail Holy Queen
