Today's Readings
Exodus 32: 7-14
Yahweh then said to Moses, ‘Go down at once, for your people whom you brought here from Egypt have become corrupt. They have quickly left the way which I ordered them to follow. They have cast themselves a metal calf, worshipped it and offered sacrifice to it, shouting, "Israel, here is your God who brought you here from Egypt!" ’ Yahweh then said to Moses, ‘I know these people; I know how obstinate they are! So leave me now, so that my anger can blaze at them and I can put an end to them! I shall make a great nation out of you instead.’
Moses tried to pacify Yahweh his God. ‘Yahweh,’ he said, ‘why should your anger blaze at your people, whom you have brought out of Egypt by your great power and mighty hand? Why should the Egyptians say, "He brought them out with evil intention, to slaughter them in the mountains and wipe them off the face of the earth?" Give up your burning wrath; relent over this disaster intended for your people. Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to whom you swore by your very self and made this promise: "I shall make your offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven, and this whole country of which I have spoken, I shall give to your descendants, and it will be their heritage for ever." ’ Yahweh then relented over the disaster which he had intended to inflict on his people.
Psalm 106: 19-23
At Horeb they made a calf,
bowed low before cast metal;
they exchanged their glory
for the image of a grass-eating bull.
They forgot the God who was saving them,
who had done great deeds in Egypt,
such wonders in the land of Ham,
such awesome deeds at the Sea of Reeds.He thought of putting an end to them,
had not Moses, his chosen one,
taken a stand in the breach and confronted him,
to turn his anger away from destroying them.
John 5: 31-47
Were I to testify on my own behalf,
my testimony would not be true;
but there is another witness
who speaks on my behalf,
and I know that his testimony is true.
You sent messengers to John,
and he gave his testimony to the truth—
not that I depend on human testimony;
no, it is for your salvation
that I mention it.
John was a lamp lit and shining
and for a time you were content
to enjoy the light that he gave.
But my testimony is greater than John’s:
the deeds my Father has given me
to perform,
these same deeds of mine
testify that the Father has sent me.
Besides, the Father who sent me
bears witness to me himself.
You have never heard his voice,
you have never seen his shape,
and his word finds no home in you
because you do not believe
in the one whom he has sent.You pore over the scriptures,
believing that in them
you can find eternal life;
it is these scriptures that testify to me,
and yet you refuse to come to me
to receive life!
Human glory means nothing to me.
Besides, I know you too well:
you have no love of God in you.
I have come in the name of my Father
and you refuse to accept me;
if someone else should come
in his own name
you would accept him.
How can you believe,
since you look to each other for glory
and are not concerned
with the glory that comes
from the one God?
Do not imagine
that I am going to accuse you
before the Father:
you have placed your hopes on Moses,
and Moses will be the one
who accuses you.
If you really believed him
you would believe me too,
since it was about me that he was writing;
but if you will not believe what he wrote,
how can you believe what I say?

Could you see your Thoughts of the day in a Thought Journal.
Jesus: Use the Blue Books, pray the rosary –
Learn to control your thoughts as a
doorway to a loving heart.
When you look over your life can you
analyze the thoughts you have
every day –
Are they thoughts you should entertain
because they are God's will?
Thoughts of love and honor and praise to
God over you –
Thoughts of love for your brothers.
Matthew 22: 36-40
'Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?' Jesus said to him, 'You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets too.'
Jesus: If you spend your day giving into any
negative thought, dividing thought,
that is what satan uses to
keep your hearts in darkness.
Satan can tempt a man to be in the
habit of negative thoughts and
dividing thoughts against the Father's will.
You must discern your thoughts before
you act –
Learn to have loving thoughts –
Satan wants people to try to be
independent of authority – so
nobody can correct their behavior
or give them directions.
Satan wants people to be independent
of others instead of being
in relationships of love
with your brothers.
Satan wants people independent.
R. Authority, obedience to just authority,
is how God works –
Satan wants to be the one enslaving
someone to serve him –
God calls us to love Him above all things and
love our neighbor as ourselves –
Satan tempted Eve and Eve wanted to be equal to God.
Jesus is the Son of God –
Read today's Gospel.
Isaiah 49:8-15
The joyful homecoming
Thus says Yahweh:
At the time of my favour
I have answered you,
on the day of salvation I have helped you.
I have formed you and have appointed you
to be the covenant for a people,
to restore the land,
to return ravaged properties,
to say to prisoners, 'Come out,'
to those who are in darkness,
'Show yourselves.'
Along the roadway they will graze,
and any bare height will be their pasture.
They will never hunger or thirst,
scorching wind and sun
will never plague them;
for he who pities them will lead them,
will guide them to springs of water.
I shall turn all my mountains into a road
and my highways will be raised aloft.
Look! Here they come from far away,
look, these from the north and the west,
those from the land of Sinim.Shout for joy, you heavens; earth, exult!
Mountains, break into joyful cries!
For Yahweh has consoled his people,
is taking pity on his afflicted ones.
Zion was saying,
'Yahweh has abandoned me,
the Lord has forgotten me.'
Can a woman forget her baby at the breast,
feel no pity for the child she has borne?
Even if these were to forget,
I shall not forget you.
Psalm 145: 8-9, 13-14, 17-18

slow to anger, full of faithful love.Tet

his tenderness embraces all his creatures.Mem

John 5: 17-30
His answer to them was, 'My Father still goes on working, and I am at work, too.' But that only made the Jews even more intent on killing him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he spoke of God as his own Father and so made himself God's equal.
To this Jesus replied:In all truth I tell you,
by himself the Son can do nothing;
he can do only
what he sees the Father doing:
and whatever the Father does
the Son does too.
For the Father loves the Son
and shows him everything
he himself does,
and he will show him
even greater things than these,
works that will astonish you.
Thus, as the Father raises the dead
and gives them life,
so the Son gives life to anyone he chooses;
for the Father judges no one;
he has entrusted all judgement to the Son,
so that all may honour the Son
as they honour the Father.
Whoever refuses honour to the Son
refuses to honour the Father
who sent him.
In all truth I tell you,
whoever listens to my words,
and believes in the one who sent me,
has eternal life;
without being brought to judgement
such a person
has passed from death to life.
In all truth I tell you,
the hour is coming --
indeed it is already here --
when the dead
will hear the voice of the Son of God,
and all who hear it will live.
For as the Father has life in himself,
so he has granted the Son also
to have life in himself;
and, because he is the Son of man,
has granted him power
to give judgement.
Do not be surprised at this,
for the hour is coming
when the dead will leave their graves
at the sound of his voice:
those who did good
will come forth to life;
and those who did evil
will come forth to judgement.
By myself I can do nothing;
I can judge only as I am told to judge,
and my judging is just,
because I seek to do not my own will
but the will of him who sent me.
R. St. Ignatius says we must discern the spirits.
Thoughts we give into come from God,
ourselves or satan.
We have a free will –
We can choose loving thoughts – not
listen to satan with his dividing
thoughts and suggestions.
I read "silence is a two-edged sword" –
1) a person can use silence to punish
another – do harm to someone
2) a person can use silence in love
listening to those he should listen
to
Some people give themselves messages that
come from satan – what to eat, drink,
do and satan can press on them so
hard to do what he wants, they hurt themselves
doing some extreme thing – not God's will.

Joyful Mysteries
The Annunciation
l. R. We must strive to do the Father’s Will. This is what I hear. It is so important that we do His Will, that we follow exactly what the Father wants us to do, that doing a good thing is not necessarily doing the Father’s Will. We must spend time alone with Jesus each day that we will know exactly what the Father is calling us to do. Many times we feel that we are doing good things and it may not be the Father's will for us. We must spend this time alone with Him to know that what we are doing is His Will and not our will.
2. Jesus: What is a good thing? All of the things that you are doing that help others are good things, but the Father has a plan for you, My beloved ones. You must strive to know exactly what that plan is, for you are crucial to this plan unfolding in the world this day. You must not underestimate the importance of this mission and your part in this mission. Each and every one of you, I am communicating with you and I am telling you the plan of the Father in your heart. Listen, do not give in to the tauntings of satan to distract you and to do the things you want to do opposed to God's will. You must do as the Father is telling you to do. You must pray fervently to know this. You must spend time alone in silent prayer that I will speak to you in your hearts. I am Jesus. I am calling you to this mission, this mission that is My mission. This is an urgent request that you take this message with the most seriousness.
3. Jesus: I am Jesus. You must take this message seriously, My beloved ones. This is a special night. This is the night that is following the great day, October l3th. This night is a special rosary for each of you for I will talk to you in your heart. You will know more about the mission that the Father has called you to. I will live in you and many will be touched by My life alive in you. I want to be one with you. You must rid yourselves of all impurities. You must strive for perfection. You are My loved ones. I will live in you and minister to this world through you, My chosen, chosen, apostles.
4. Jesus: As night follows day and day follows night, this is the night that follows Sunday. It is most important that you open your heart and I will speak to you. See the Blessed Mother and the angel appears to her and asks her to be the Mother of God. Mary said 'yes' to the angel, always complying to the Father’s will. This is the plan of the Father, the plan is unfolding here in this room with each of the apostles that He has called here.
R. You answered this call. Will you pray fervently for the fire in your heart, that you will go into the world and carry the message that Jesus wants us to carry into the world. How can you sit back and watch the world? Mary complied always to the Father’s Will. We see this unfold all through her life - when she sat under the cross and held His lifeless body, always complying to the Will of the Father. This is the same plan of the Father. It is unfolding in our life this day. Jesus came into this world in the womb of His Mother. Now He comes to us and asks us: "I want to dwell in you. You are My instrument. Can I operate in you, in this world today?" He no longer walks this earth. The Incarnation goes on in our lives for we are being formed more and more in the womb of Mary, into this image and likeness of our beloved Savior and as we become one in Him, He lives in us. Think of this: the Almighty God is alive and in us. When we encounter others He is touching them through us. Who are we that the Divine God chooses to live in us and to touch others and to love others through us? We have been called His chosen apostles. He is living in us. Many, many hearts will be touched because He is giving to us abundant graces to be so close to Him. He lives in our graced baptized soul.
5. R. Christ was formed in the womb of His Mother through the power of the Holy Spirit. This day we are formed in the spiritual womb of Mary, through the Holy Spirit, to be more and more like Christ. We are imperfect in our love. We are imperfect in everything that we are doing. As we dwell in the heart of Mary and the Holy Spirit sanctifies us, we grow more in our perfection, more like Jesus, and more like our model Mary.
6. R. If we were all like Christ it would be so easy to love one another, but we are imperfect. It is very hard to love some people sometime when we see their imperfection. It is very hard for people to love me when people see my imperfection. The more I am like Christ, the more that people can love me. We must strive for this perfection that we can be great lovers - lovers with each other. As Christ lives in us, as we become more perfected, we will love each other with the greatest love. So, people will say: what sets those apart from the others and what sets us apart is the fire of His love is in our hearts. What sets us apart is how the Holy Spirit has worked within us to help us grow more and more in holiness. He has called us to this special mission and it is through His grace that we become holy, that God wants so much to help us to grow in this holiness, to be His leaders and to take His love to the world.
7. R. Christ showed us that He came into this world in the womb of the Virgin Mary and Mary said “yes” to the angel. Christ was formed within her womb. You see this little embryo, the Almighty God, being formed in the womb of Mary. This is how it is today: we are imperfect - the more we dwell in Mary’s heart the more the Holy Spirit is forming us to be more perfect in our love. We want to love like Jesus - it is so easy to love a person that is like Jesus. We want this with all our hearts.
8. R. What makes great love relationships? Great love relationships are made by people that are trying to grow to be more and more like Jesus for it is easy to love people that are like Jesus.
9. R. This is what our life is all about: to love God, to love one another, and to receive love. We must strive in order to be great lovers, to be more and more like Him. The more we are like Him, the more we are great lovers for God is love.
10. Song: O Holy Dwelling Place of God
R. Think of the womb of Mary - that the Father chose Mary from all women to be the Mother of His Son, that Jesus was formed in the womb of Mary, that the Holy Spirit formed Jesus in Mary's womb. What a sacred place - this womb. Mary is all perfect and all pure. We are sinners. It is through the pure and sinless one that we will be able to love the Almighty God more perfectly in our imperfectness we must go to the heart of Mary.
Is there another way. Can we leave our heavenly mother out? Jesus had told Lucia that He wanted His Heart venerated next to the heart of His Mother. There is not another way out. When people are in love with the Blessed Virgin Mary they will love the Church. The devil has waged this war against Mary. We must pray to Jesus to ask Him to help us to be able to give ourselves to Mary and to love her more. Mary is the gateway to the Heart of Christ. It is through Christ that we will be one with the Father.
The Visitation
l. R. Mary made haste to the hill country to visit her cousin Elizabeth who was with child in her old age. This is the visitation.
2. R. How are we living this mystery in our lives this day? With each person I encounter, it is an encounter in which I must show that person the Jesus that lives within me. When I walk into a room I can be loving and I can be joyful because Christ lives within me, or I can go into the room and I can cast a dark cloud. The Almighty God is alive within us, then our hearts should be filled with such joy as - every person we encounter is a visit. Does this person know that God lives within me or do I walk into a room and tell them dark and dismal things? See Mary. She visits her cousin Elizabeth and within her is the child, Jesus. Jesus is alive this day, He lives in our heart. We do not realize the immensity of this gift or we would carry this good news as Mary did wherever we go, but we focus so many times on the negative aspects and tell people our sufferings and our problems and the Almighty God is alive and within us.
3. R. We must live the mysteries of this rosary in our lives. How is it when I visit my friends? Do I go to them and carry His life within me, and show the joy within my heart because God is alive or do I go to them and I am depressed and anxious, always spreading a negative energy? Pray to be joyful - not communicate division, anger, in body language and conversation.
4. R. Love is like a circle. Love is a force that comes from God. When I genuinely love, the love of the Almighty God flows through me to others. Love spreads. Love is encircling. The Father looks down and this is what He wants: He wants love, love between all of us, but the devil gets into our hearts and tries to keep us focused on negative things, tries to get us to think of things that others are doing that are irritating to us, thinking others are divided with us, that they are thinking bad thoughts about us, and so we are divided with others in a room because of our own thoughts or dividing self-talk in ourselves. Many times we create negative energy. This blocks the flow of love.
5. Song: I am the Vine
R. See the vine, see the branches, see the life flow from the vine to the branches - see the love flow between us - see the love between us in this room, for Christ is joining our hearts in a special way. It is in living the mysteries of these rosaries that we will continue to carry this love to others. We must forever carry in our thoughts, thoughts of the lives of Jesus and Mary, that they will be our models in everything that we do and not give into the tauntings of Satan to create negativism in our minds.
6. R. Dear Holy Spirit, help us to be aware of all the times that we think and act on dividing thoughts that rupture our relationships with God and others. Dear Holy Spirit, help us to be loving and not negative and hateful towards our brothers. We have one thing that we must do: to love God and love one another. We cannot give into thoughts of division. We cannot size up our brothers and give into division with our brothers. Whenever there is division in our hearts, whenever we are thinking ill thoughts of our brothers, we must be aware satan wants to hurt relationships - tear them apart and stop the flow of love.
7. Jesus: I have asked you to pray 15 decades of the rosary each day. If you meditate on the mysteries of these rosaries your thoughts will be disciplined and focused on Our lives. You will not be taunted and tempted by Satan to think ill thoughts of division against your brothers. You are My apostles that I am sending into the world, My apostles of love. Love must flow from your heart to the hearts of others. You must not create a negative energy because you give into satan's temptations. Satan tempts people: to have hatred, division and bitterness in your world.
8. R. Jesus, I want to be like You and how many times my tongue slips and I say negative things and I do not want to say or give into dividing self-talk in myself. I beg you for the grace that I will love from my heart and be more like You. When I am about to say something negative toward any of my brothers, help me to focus on the positive aspect of my relationship with others, that I am thankful and not ungrateful. I love You, Jesus. I adore You and thank You for the gift of Your life within me so that when I visit others, when I talk to others, when I am with others, they will encounter the Christ that is alive within me, that I bring Your joy in me to them.
9. R. But we say, Jesus, I go to Mass, I go to Communion, I go to the Tabernacle, I am giving my funds to you, I am giving so much and now, now you are saying to me that I must try to not even harbor negative thoughts about others.
Jesus says to us: I want you to grow in perfection for I will live in you and I will show others My way through you. You must be apostles of love. You are the leaders that I am sending into this world to show others how to love, how do they learn how to love when you are not loving in your ways? Will you consider this mission that I am giving to you? Will you take this as an urgent call? Pray for the grace to grow in your perfection. I will live in you and your hearts will be filled with the greatest joy.
10. Jesus: When you entertain dividing thoughts about others, when you talk about others it can create division between your heart and My Heart and you do not feel relief, you do not feel good inside and you can continue to go downward in your feelings of division, leading to darkness and misery and division distances you from Me. You must focus on the good qualities of those that I am sending to you. You must try to love each other, compliment each other, thank each other and give of yourself to one another. This is My way. Others will look at you. Be witnesses of love.
People will say: See how they love one another. You must give of yourself in love.
The Birth of Jesus
l. R. We see Jesus. He was carried within the womb of His Mother and He was born in a stable. We see ourselves here in life - we are growing more and more in our Christ-life. We are being formed more and more each day to be more like Jesus and someday we too will be in heaven with the Almighty God for all eternity in love.
2. R. I am tested in fire but I proceed fearlessly ahead for the desire of my heart, My God, is to be more and more like you, to grow more in perfection, to love more like you, to be more like you so that you will live within me and that you will touch this world that is hurting through me. Who are we that God lives in our graced baptized soul - and others will know Him through us? I look into the eyes of each of you and I see the Christ that lives in you. I see Him in your gentleness and your loving ways. I look into your eyes and I hug you and I am hugging the Christ that is alive in you. He is alive, He is alive, and He lives in you.
3. R. I looked into the eyes of my dear friend and I truly saw Christ in their beauty and their gentle ways. I was moved in my heart in a way that I was never moved before for I saw Him, I saw Him, so alive in her and it made me cry that He was so close to me and to her.
4. R. And I saw an older woman and her skin was wrinkled but within her eyes was the beauty of the Almighty God and the generosity that was in her heart, and the tenderness was His way - Christ within us. He is living in us and He is touching this world in us.
5. R. And I saw Christ as He carried the box, and cooked the meal, as He gave us a place to stay. I saw Christ in you in your loving ways and I loved Him with such love for He gave you to us and He is alive in you.
6. R. Your ways are His ways and I love you so much for His ways that you are showing to me. I am learning about Christ from watching you, my beloved brother because of your Christ-like ways. Christ is in our graced baptized soul. I am learning about Christ from your Christ-like ways, your pure giving, your heart like the Heart of Jesus. I thank Jesus and I thank you.
7. R. Jesus is alive, Jesus is alive, Jesus is alive, and Jesus lives in our hearts.
Song: Give me Your Heart Oh Jesus, give me a heart like Yours
8. Jesus: I was sick and imprisoned and He came to me and he administered to me. What you do to your brothers, you do to Me.
9. R. The Incarnation goes on in us and we are being formed more and more into His image and we become great lovers. This is what He wants of us - to be great lovers in this world today.
l0. Jesus: Are you alone? Do you feel rejected? Did you know how close I was to you? Did you identify that rejection with how I was rejected? I am sharing in all your feelings. I am with you. I love you. I am with you, My beloved ones, in your every breath and your every heartbeat. As your heart beats in this world, My heart is beating in this world. In sending My love to others, others are looking into your eyes and they are seeing the reflection of Me - in your eyes, in your face, and in your soul. Strive to be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect. Do not give into the tauntings of satan to create negativisms in your heart. Look for the good qualities in each other and love each other with the most fervent love.
The Presentation in the Temple
l. Luke 2: 33-35
As the child’s father and mother were wondering at the things that were being said about him, Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, ‘Look, he is destined for the fall and for the rise of many in Israel, destined to be a sign that is opposed—and a sword will pierce your soul too—so that the secret thoughts of many may be laid bare.’
2. R. Many will rise, many will fall. Once they encounter Christ, they do not remain the same. Jesus lives in our graced baptized soul. When people encounter Christ in us we can be witnesses and help others to change. We must realize that in every action we perform it is an action in which we can touch hearts. We must realize that we show others His ways in us, that the smile and the love that we give might be the difference to so many hearts that day. We touch the hearts of another, this is a great calling. If we realize that He is really alive in us, then all of our actions should be like Him–that we must strive for perfection for this is the way He lives in this world today in us – like ripples on a pond, it radiates and it flows to others, or it can be a negative kink in the hose and the flow stops and the negativism is spread out.
3. R. This child is destined for the fall and rise of many in Israel. Many will chose life and many will chose death. We have been chosen to be His apostles and He is alive in us. As His life flows through us to others, some of those that are in darkness will see the light and their hearts will be changed because of Jesus living in us.
4. R. How many will be touched because of my choice this day, to choose love when I would rather be snarly towards someone? How many are watching me as I parade around with my crucifix and talk about Jesus and carry a glum face, act in unloving ways to provoke others or complain negatively? Do I show others the way of Christ?
5. R. And her heart was pierced with a sword. Our heavenly Mother appeared over and over and over again and told me many souls were gong to hell. Is Christ alive in me today - Am I acting as Jesus would act? Are we taking this call with the utmost importance in our lives? Think of this: in a grocery store when we meet a stranger, when we drive our car – everything that we do we are teaching others about Christ who lives in us. Christ lives in us in this world today. He lives in us. I look in your eyes, and I saw you carry a box, and lend us your home, and I saw you work so hard. You taught me the ways of Jesus and I learned more about Him so I could grow to be more like God wants me to be.
6. Song: A Song from Jesus
7. Hail Mary
8. Jesus: You are My hands. You are My Heart beating in this world today. others will look into your eyes and they will see Me alive within you. Your face will radiate My life and others will love Me because of you. Love within your heart. You must strive for perfection. You must not give into negative, dividing thoughts in your heart. Give to God, don't tell yourself how hard it is and that you have this right to be angry for doing what is God's will for you. Discipline yourselves! Be thankful to Me for the great gifts I am giving to you and focus on My life within you. This is the good news: You are My apostles that I have chosen and I live in you. I want to be one in you that I can live in you and teach others My ways.
9. Jesus: It is easy to love those who are loving and kind and who have reached a certain degree of perfection on their journey. It is more difficult to love those who are not as loving and sometimes very nasty in their ways, and touchy - all of those you meet you must love, even those that are nasty for you are teaching them the way of love. My Mother’s heart was pierced with a sword - give to her great joy, give to her your love. You are being called to witness in your lives, lived in love.
l0. R. It is in dwelling in the heart of Mary that we become more and more like Christ, that the Holy Spirit works in her heart to purify us and to help us to grow in perfection.
Jesus: You are not perfect. My Mother is holy and pure. You must give yourself to My Mother.
The Finding in the Temple
1. R. And this is our joy - to find Jesus, to find Jesus in our hearts and to find Jesus in the hearts of others.
2. Jesus: I am giving you each other to love. I am giving you this gift. You must thank me for this gift. You must find Christ in each other’s hearts.
3. Jesus: I am joining you in one mind and one heart. You are My apostles. It is in this strength that you will proceed fearlessly ahead for you are not alone, you are one in Our Hearts, be hearts of love.
4. R. Do not give into sinful ways. Think of all of our brothers that are out there at this moment living in darkness. Some have been cut off from the vine through their sins. Think of how it would be to not be able to go deep within yourself and not feel peace. There are so many out there that are living in total darkness, that have chosen death rather than life. They are suffering. It is, as Christ lives within us, that many of these hearts will be touched by how we conduct ourselves It is the ones that are not nice that need to know His love. If I treat them with kindness they will see His love. If I am bitter or cold or indifferent - that is not the way Jesus would do it. It is through us that He is showing others His way. His way is the way of love.
Jesus: When you touch the hearts that are cold and dark with love, when you want to walk away because they are not nice, and you think about how they have offended you, think about their soul, how you can touch them with love. Love the sinner, hate the sin. Talk kind to them and love them, despite their ways. This may make the difference some day when they are close to death and they remember My gentle Heart beating within you.
And I stood at the pillar and I was whipped and I was persecuted, but within My Heart was My Divine love. I stood at the pillar and I was whipped for all souls - for the souls of the angry, the souls of the needy. You show them My ways. You are My Heart in this world today. You are My apostles of love. You must always love. You must not give into anger or bitterness. You must always respond as I would respond. You do not have to stand and take abuse but you must not respond in anger, you must gently walk away.
5. Jesus: Satan aims to trip you up and to get you to sin. You must strive for perfection for I am living in you and others are learning My way through you.
6. R. Many have lost their way today. They are the children that Mary cried out about that are going to hell. What can we do to answer this urgent plea that our Mother gave to us. What we can do is to try to be more and more like Christ, to live in this world in love, to be apostles of love, to not give into the tauntings of Satan to try to get us to be angry with the people that are nasty to us, to respond calmly and always as Christ would.
7. R. If we realize that God is really alive and in us, the Almighty God lives within us, we have great joy within our hearts. We must pray for the grace to realize this, to find Jesus so alive in us that our hearts are consumed with love for this is the good news: He is alive, He is alive, He is alive and He lives in us.
8. R. I was lonesome this day and I wanted some love, and you came to me, and you came to me and I looked into your eyes and you were kind and gave of yourself. I saw Christ in you. I love you, my brother, for you taught me the ways of Christ through your actions.
9. Song: I am the Vine
10. Hail Mary
R. We are one body in Him. Each one of us is so important. We can’t say, “I am important, you are not important.” The way of the plan of the Father is that we must all work together. We cannot say, “I do not need you, my brother.” We must work hand in hand, each one of us, with the talents the Father has given to us to accomplish this great mission and though many times you may be tired and weary and feel irritated we must tell one another that we are sorry and that we love them and that we are grateful for all that they are doing for us.
Jesus: It is in love, My dear ones, that the plan of the Father will unfold. You are My apostles of love. You are teaching the world My way. You must pray for greater perfection. You are being formed within the heart of My Mother through the Holy Spirit to be more and more like Me. You are in the state of becoming like the Father wants you to be. You, My beloved ones, are growing in your Christ-life, and in your perfection. Strive to be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.
These are the joyful mysteries. When you realize My life alive within you, you will have joy in your hearts and you will not give into negativism. Look at one and another and see the Christ alive in each other and love.
Dear God, I adore You, I worship You, and I love You. I thank You for each and every person that You have sent to us in this group for it is truly a great gift from God that we are drawn in this great love, in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
