Jesus speaks:
My Heart cries out to you to pray
for My beloved souls.
Many souls do not even know how
imperfectly they act — they
do not pray for grace to see
the light.
They do not pray for Wisdom.
Sirah 1: 1-10
All wisdom comes from the Lord,
she is with him for ever.
The sands of the sea, the drops of rain,
the days of eternity—who can count them?
The height of the sky, the breadth of the earth,
the depth of the abyss—who can explore them?
Wisdom was created before everything,
prudent understanding subsists from remotest ages.
For whom has the root of wisdom ever been uncovered?
Her resourceful ways, who knows them?
One only is wise, terrible indeed,
seated on his throne, the Lord.
It was he who created, inspected and weighed her up,
and then poured her out on all his works—
as much to each living creature as he chose—
bestowing her on those who love him.
Jesus speaks:
Some are too prideful to pray allowing
God's grace to work in them, they
think they do everything right, they
continue acting the way they
are accustomed to and try
to change all around them.
Control is a problem.
Many control for the sake of control.
You must pray for grace to know what
is right.
While you give into satan with your
pride, much work is not
being done.
Oh My beloved people I have all
the power.
Do not let your pride take
you over.
Some will lie, just to seem right.
What is important to them is that they
are always above others,
that they see themselves
always having the right
answer.
What is important is that you
pray for wisdom and truth.
What is important that when directing
others, you must pray for wisdom
to do so correctly.
Do you pray, or are you telling yourself
you are right and then want God
to prove it to others?
I want you to read the Story in the
beginning of the Bible —
Genesis Chapter 3
The Fall
Now, the snake was the most subtle of all the wild animals that Yahweh God had made. It asked the woman, ‘Did God really say you were not to eat from any of the trees in the garden?’ The woman answered the snake, ‘We may eat the fruit of the trees in the garden. But of the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden God said, "You must not eat it, nor touch it, under pain of death." ’ Then the snake said to the woman, ‘No! You will not die! God knows in fact that the day you eat it your eyes will be opened and you will be like gods, knowing good from evil.’ The woman saw that the tree was good to eat and pleasing to the eye, and that it was enticing for the wisdom that it could give. So she took some of its fruit and ate it. She also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of them were opened and they realised that they were naked. So they sewed fig–leaves together to make themselves loin–cloths.
The man and his wife heard the sound of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from Yahweh God among the trees of the garden. But Yahweh God called to the man. ‘Where are you?’ he asked. ‘I heard the sound of you in the garden,’ he replied. ‘I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.’ ‘Who told you that you were naked?’ he asked. ‘Have you been eating from the tree I forbade you to eat?’ The man replied, ‘It was the woman you put with me; she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.’ Then Yahweh God said to the woman, ‘Why did you do that?’ The woman replied, ‘The snake tempted me and I ate.’
Then Yahweh God said to the snake, ‘Because you have done this,
Accursed be you of
all animals wild and tame!
On your belly you will go
and on dust you will feed
as long as you live.
I shall put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
it will bruise your head
and you will strike its heel.’To the woman he said:
I shall give you intense pain
in childbearing,
you will give birth to your children
in pain.
Your yearning will be for your husband,
and he will dominate you.To the man he said, ‘Because you listened to the voice of your wife and ate from the tree of which I had forbidden you to eat,
Accursed be the soil because of you!
Painfully will you get your food from it
as long as you live.
It will yield you brambles and thistles,
as you eat the produce of the land.
By the sweat of your face
will you earn your food,
until you return to the ground,
as you were taken from it.
For dust you are
and to dust you shall return.’The man named his wife ‘Eve’ because she was the mother of all those who live. Yahweh God made tunics of skins for the man and his wife and clothed them. Then Yahweh God said, ‘Now that the man has become like one of us in knowing good from evil, he must not be allowed to reach out his hand and pick from the tree of life too, and eat and live for ever!’ So Yahweh God expelled him from the garden of Eden, to till the soil from which he had been taken. He banished the man, and in front of the garden of Eden he posted the great winged creatures and the fiery flashing sword, to guard the way to the tree of life.
Jesus speaks: I want you to meditate on light.
Think of St. Paul and what he was
doing and then he saw the light.
Oh pride blinds the man — you must
pray to not be guilty of the
sin of pride, but pray for
grace to do God's will.
Many want Me to do what they want,
I am God.
Many are so prideful in their prayers.
Some are so confused that they
change black and white
statements into statements
they interpret to their liking.
Pray for wisdom.
Pray to not be full of pride.
Pray to see as God wants you to see.
Messenger:
The light shown on my face and
I saw differently than before.
Jesus speaks:
Some are hurting so much from
past relationships they do not
know how they are blaming others
today for their pain with others.
They need to look at the hidden pain
within from all their relationships.
Some do not even realize what they do.
A person was very wounded, they
kept saying things to hurt
another to explain their
pain, they never realized
how they drove the other
away. They made the other
person in their relationship,
now, responsible for all the
pain that had been done to
them. They never looked at
all the disappointments, wounds
and sufferings of the past, - they pick
a surrogate person and act out
all their pain on them, emotionally
controlling and hurting - using the
job, the situation for their own
control.
Those underneath others in families
and businesses can use passive-
aggressive ways to get control
and attention. They are silent
and yet their silence hurts everyone
when they are an authority. They
have control of the situation and
that is their goal to emotionally
control those around them to
punish someone for their deep —
seated wounds.
People who have suffered terrible
betrayal can punish innocent
people their whole life until
they look at their own bitterness.
Some need to cry and express the
feelings and work through the
process of forgiving and loving
the person who has offended
them.
Others may be given special grace
to heal. I have given special
grace at the Virgin Mary building
the building of the Two Hearts for
this changing of one's heart
and seeing the situation in the light.
Some are so prideful, they stuff
their feelings telling themselves they
are above needing any kind of
help dealing with their bitterness
and they heap resentment, hatred,
unforgiveness as in a big box
within ready to explode and
punish any victim they can
consistently control emotionally.
When the job is clear and there is
"a bunch of baggage" to get to
the execution of that job - then you
are not doing the job for the
end product.
Some people spend their whole lives
rescuing others.
They go into a room and are looking
for the person to help so they
can be master and above them.
Oh look at that poor person, they think,
"I will help them" then I will
feel power and satisfaction of
being above them.
You do not see the pride in your own
actions, many times.
You do not see your own woundedness.
Some project their own problems on
others constantly.
Others have had traumatic suffering
in relationships and instead of
admitting they must truthfully
try to recover — They close themselves
up like a hard box, thinking they are
so holy they don't need to face their
own pain, then they project their
pain on others trying to control
them and emotionally punish
others for their hidden pain they
have locked away like hungry
dogs in a basement.
Who will penetrate the heart of
one who is prideful and punishing —
their own prayers and willingness
to beg for grace can help them.
A person unwilling to change does
not want to change, they will try
to manipulate everything so
they will never have to change.
It takes grace to look at life-long
behavior patterns and change them.
It takes willingness to always beg
that one lives in the truth.
One little lie, stretching of the
truth is a doorway to
let other lies in.
Is your pride more important
than the truth to you?
Do you interpret things so you
will always do things your
way?
I am giving directions to complete
this mailing to the priests
in the United States.
It is easy to follow.
It takes lots of prayers to accomplish
it.
A person in need of recovery can
punish others until they
deal with the truth and recognize
the fact they try to emotionally
control others.
My ways are direct and steadfast.
Two people sat next to each other
in a mailing — they worked
and got the job done.
A person full of wounds and
pride is constantly thinking
of all kinds of problems
they have with others — little
work is accomplished, they
have all these issues to settle
being next to someone.
Two people working to accomplish
a task - go to work.
A person with all kinds of problems
in wounding relationships
spends all his time and
energy seeing who is in
control, how are they acting,
what side of the corner of their
mouth are they smiling out
of, etc.
My people while you give into satan
fighting your brothers you need
to work with — all My work
stops and the world is growing
in deeper evilness because
you are not helping.
Do you want to help your children?
Get off your high-horse, you
think you can control it —
Oh My beloved one — you live in
the world and so do your
children — in 2 years your
influence will be so little
and the world is getting worse
and worse.
The world will be the teachers
of your children soon and soon —
You do not live in a vacuum
you better pray as I have
directed for the priests, the
Church and the WORLD.
Are you in My army or
has satan taken you out — controlling
your wounded heart, blaming
others for wounds they did not
give you.
You must pray for healing for yourself —
the quickest way is to follow
My directions here —
quit reading everything into
it — so you can control it —
quit telling others of your
wounded ways by people
who didn't even hurt you.
You give into satan because of
what is inside of you.
What is in your heart —
is it pride
jealousy
the need to control —
untruthfulness
bitterness
Matthew 15: 17-20
Can’t you see that whatever goes into the mouth passes through the stomach and is discharged into the sewer? But whatever comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and it is this that makes someone unclean. For from the heart come evil intentions: murder, adultery, fornication, theft, perjury, slander. These are the things that make a person unclean. But eating with unwashed hands does not make anyone unclean.’
Jesus speaks:
While you are playing your
games, my work isn't
being accomplished and
Your own children and grandchildren
are suffering from the world.
What a soldier you are!
You have been laid in a bunker
when the barrel is at your
head because your feelings
are hurt and you need to control.
Believe Me they will shoot your
head and kill your children.
Satan wants souls.
He is evil.
He wants to take them to hell.
You worry about your
body and souls are
dropping into hell
like rain.
Satan is laughing —
Oh the children —
Oh the children
No one can tell you, you
are wrong because of your
pride and your need to
control.
When I asked you to help Me
you said no to Me
and continued your
stubborn, imperfect ways.
You don't even tell yourself
the truth when you
are disappointed —
you blame someone
else and try to get
your power in ways against
My will.
A good mother and father loves their
children.
Because the child has swayed from
doing what they should — a good
parent loves the child and
prays for them.
The good parent is not looking for
their own selfish gain with
a child —
Some parents think their children
should fill their unmet needs
of loving —
Can you see the ill effects
on the children?
A healthy good parent prays for the
children no matter what they
have done, they love them and
want the child to have their eternal
reward.
How are your relationships with
your children? Do they exist
to fill your needs?
A mother once said when the children
were "up and grown" and seemed
so busy with their own lives —
I love them so deeply — no matter
what they are doing — it isn't
I love one more than another
because of what they have
done for me —
I love them all so very deeply —
I just love them —
I want so much for them to go
to heaven —
Oh My people
How pure is your love?
Do your relationships exist
to fill your wounds and
do you emotionally control
others?
I have called you in My army to
help Me.
Depending on your maturity and
how you yourself, live
truthfully is how you will
serve Me.
How pure is your love for souls —
Or was your relationship with
Shepherds of Christ because
you wanted a family to fill
your needs and blame your
old wounds on.
I have called you in My army —
your arms are your hearts
filled with My love —
Some are babies —
they wanted the milk from
the bottle or breast they
never got —
Some wanted the love they
never got from a failed
marriage —
I called you to serve Me —
I outpoured My love to you in
God's Blue Book —
I took you deeply into My heart —
Some came and learned and gave
very little back and
gave very little to other souls and
then they started criticizing
My Movement after I gave
them so much —
the folly of it is —
is - you do not see the work of satan
in your inactive, bitter life,
Some have a pressure cooker
filled with bitterness and anger
from past relationships and they
want to be held like babies,
they want a wife to tell them they
are #1 and they are loved
every second of every day —
I love you every moment of every day
and more and
I love My precious souls this way —
Your children are being given poison
in the world —
Soon the grandbabies will be given
the same diet and
are you the mother that says —
"I love them no matter what"
or the
bitter mother that wants the
birthday present and mother's day
card or she will not talk to them —
How is your heart —
Evil comes from within —
malice
envy
selfishness
jealousy
contemplation of ill deeds
anger —
LOOK AT YOUR HEART
have you grown in My image
and likeness —
Jesus speaks:
I gave the last drop of My Blood —
your anger and bitterness is eating
you away more than the ill deeds
of your fellows you blame
and robbing your heart of
happiness to know Me -
and know you are helping this
troubled world.

The First Station JESUS IS CONDEMNED TO DEATH Jesus: My dear child, with angry
hearts and hatred on their faces, they poked at Me and condemned Me to
death. I stood so silent, My hands tied, in perfect peace, because I
knew the Father's love. I knew the Father's Will. You too will stand
your trials in perfect peace, the more you realize the immense love the
Father, Son and Holy Spirit have for you. Pray to the Spirit to
transform you more and more into My image and, through this
transformation, you will be led ever closer to the Father. Oh, how I
love you! |
 |
The Second Station THEY GIVE JESUS THE CROSS Jesus: They gave Me a heavy cross, laden with
the sins of the world. They placed it on My shoulder. It was so heavy I
felt as if My shoulder would break. I ask you to carry little crosses,
to experience little pains. I could not remove this cross from My
shoulder. The weight was unbearable. It is through My suffering and
death that you receive new life. It is through your sufferings this day
that you will grow in your life with Me. Oh, child, I loved you so much
that I took up the cross of salvation. I love you. Please realize that I
am talking to you here. To My death I loved you. Oh, how I love you! |
The Third StationJESUS FALLS THE FIRST TIME Jesus: The cross was so heavy I could hardly walk. I held on to My cross for greatest love of you and in compliance with the Will of My Father. It became so hard to walk! The cross was so heavy! I fell. I fell and the cross fell on Me. They poked at Me, they struck Me, they demanded I get up. The pain from the instruments they used to poke Me and strike Me was so great! I somehow managed to get up. When you fall under the weight of your cross, come to
My Eucharistic Heart. I am no less present in the tabernacle and in the
Eucharist than on the day I carried My cross. I wait with the same love
that I had for you when I carried this cross and suffered such agony.
Oh, how I love you! |
 The Fourth Station JESUS AND MARY MEET Jesus: I saw the face of My beautiful Mother.
She was weak, her face reddened and full of tears. I saw her tender
heart, her love, her anguish, her pain. I saw My dear Mother Mary. My
Heart was comforted by the sight of her, but torn by her suffering. |
 The Fifth Station SIMON OF CYRENE IS FORCED TO HELP JESUS CARRY HIS CROSS Jesus: The cross was so heavy I could not move.
My persecutors became angry and forced a man to help Me. The cross was
so heavy the two of us could barely move it. How is your cross today?
Does it seem so heavy you cannot go on? I am forever watching you. When
you are suffering the greatest, I am very close to you. It is in immense
suffering that you realize My great love for you. Pray for grace to do
always the Father's Will. Pray for grace to grow in your knowledge and
love of Me. |
 The
Sixth StationVERONICA WIPES THE FACE OF JESUS Jesus: My face was covered with blood. From the crowd Veronica came forward with a cloth to wipe My face. On the cloth I gave to you an imprint of My bloodied face. This, My children, remains with you this day as a sign of My immense love for you. But more than any cloth, look beyond the visible consecrated host. I, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, remain with you, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity, in the Eucharist this day, waiting and longing to be with you. Oh, how I love you! |
 The Seventh Station JESUS FALLS THE SECOND TIME Jesus: Oh, dear ones, the road became harder
and harder to walk. The cross was becoming heavier, My body weaker and
weaker. My shoulders and arms hurt so much! My head throbbed as I
walked. The blood came from My body, from My head to My feet. I was
covered with open wounds. I could not go any farther. I stumbled and
fell. Again they poked at Me, only harder, and with such hatred they
kicked Me. Such vileness in the hearts of men! My greatest agony was not
the agonies of My body, but the agonies of My heart for the love I have
for all My precious souls. I loved them so dearly. I loved those who
persecuted Me. Oh, how I love you! |
 The
Eighth StationJESUS MEETS THE WOMEN OF JERUSALEM Jesus: The women came to Me with their children, their tender hearts crying and wanting to comfort Me. I saw their love, their care. I saw the coldness of men's hearts for all time, the hatred, the anger, the sins, all the souls that, despite all of My sufferings and death, would be condemned to eternal damnation. I told the women to weep not for Me, but for themselves and their children. My greatest agonies were the agonies of My Most Sacred Heart. Oh, how I love you! |
 The Ninth Station JESUS FALLS THE THIRD TIME Jesus Falls the Third Time |
 |
The Tenth Station JESUS IS STRIPPED OF HIS GARMENTS Jesus: They took Me to the hill to crucify Me. They angrily stripped Me of My garments. They took off My clothes to whip Me. They had covered My bloody wounds with a dirty purple robe. Now, total surrender-they took off My clothes. I showed you the way to surrender, always complying with the Will of the Father. It is in living in His Will that you will have peace and joy, and life eternal some day. Oh, how I love you! |
 |
The Eleventh Station THEY NAIL JESUS TO THE CROSS Messenger: See Mary as she holds the little
Baby Jesus. See her as she washes His tender hands and feet. See her now
as she watches as they pound into those same hands and feet the gigantic
nails that fix Jesus to the cross. |
 The Twelfth Station JESUS DIES ON THE CROSS (Silence.) |
 The Thirteenth Station JESUS IS TAKEN DOWN FROM THE CROSS AND PLACED IN THE ARMS OF HIS MOTHER Messenger: His totally lifeless body was placed
in the arms of His most loving Mother. As she had held the little baby
body in her arms, she now received His bloodied, bruised body in her
arms. This is how He obeyed the Father's Will. Jesus gave His life for
us. The Father gave His only Son because He loves us so much. Mary, His
Mother, our Mother and the Mother of the Church, is forever by His side.
See Jesus in the arms of His loving Mother under the cross. This is
love. |
 The
Fourteenth StationJESUS IS LOCKED IN THE TOMB Messenger: His enemies rolled the stone up to the tomb and were pleased to have buried Jesus. Mary, outside the tomb, wept bitterly. The cold reality that He was dead! But death has no power over Jesus for on the third day He rose, triumphant, from the tomb! We are partakers in His divine life. Death has no power over Jesus. He is with us this day. He comes to bring us life to the full. He loves us so much! |
Talk by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.
given to the Apostles in the
Shepherds of Christ Movement
February 1, 1998
Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen all of you at once in the same place. It’s a tremendous treat for me. So praise be the Lord. Let’s start with the Holy Spirit Prayer.
Come, Holy Spirit, almighty Sanctifier, God of love, who filled the Virgin Mary with grace, who wonderfully changed the hearts of the apostles, who endowed all Your martyrs with miraculous courage, come and sanctify us. Enlighten our minds, strengthen our wills, purify our consciences, rectify our judgment, set our hearts on fire, and preserve us from the misfortunes of resisting Your inspirations. Amen.
