A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb
the Bridegroom of the soul
Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.

Messenger:            
      What you do in one setting
                                 
      in dealing with problems —
                                 
      may not be acceptable in
                                 
      another setting.
                               
Our life is a mixture of
                           
being related to God, working
                           
in ourselves and working in
                           
relationship with others.
                               
We establish boundaries
                           
with others. We interact with others.
                           
We check our actions out with others.
                           
We work in connection.
                               
Our center is connected to
                           
Jesus. Our motor force is to
                           
be all actions done for His honor
                           
and glory.
                               
Some do their actions for their
                           
own honor and glory.
                               
Jesus was selfless; He gave
                           
Himself to His death on the cross.
                           
He gave Himself in obedience
                           
to the Father. He glorified the
                           
Father in this action of giving
                           
Himself.
                               
He showed us the way
                           
in perfect peace. He walked the earth
                           
obedient always to the Father's wishes.
                               
So many today leave God out of 
                           
their thoughts. They operate
                           
without any concern for Him.
                               
Our work here is to give glory to
                           
God.
                               
We see His glory in His handiwork.
                           
We see His gifts in our lives.
                               
We operate to honor God, to love
                           
Him, to give ourselves as a sacrifice
                           
for Him.
                               
How can a branch live separated
                           
from the vine? How can a baby forming
                           
in the womb of its mother live
                           
if jerked from the womb in the
                           
early stages of pregnancy?
Life flows from God.
                               
God uses the mother to give life
                           
to the baby.
                               
The baby began through an act of
                           
the mother with the father.
                               
Life goes on with the blood in our veins
                           
from the pumping heart, and we need
                           
fresh air to breathe.
                               
Jesus came to this earth and His
                           
Heart beats in love for us. The Holy
                           
Spirit breathes life in our soul,
                           
God the Father created us.
                               
The Divine God loves us His creatures.
                           
He created us to give honor to Him and
                           
to love Him, but what is love if it
                           
is not freely given. He gave us a free will. And
                           
as a reward for loving and serving Him
                           
we will be with Him for all eternity.
                               
I am so united with God.
                           
His presence pervades my soul.
                           
When I receive Him in the Holy Eucharist
                           
He comes and dwells in me in His
                           
Divinity and Humanity.
                               
People believe things within themselves.
                           
They believe things as truth, it may
                           
seem to be truth to them, but is not
                           
truth at all.
                               
We know Jesus is the truth.
                               
Jesus is the way, the truth and the
                           
life.
                               
Jesus teaches us His Word.
                               
Jesus gives us His Word to follow.
                               
Jesus is the Light.
                               
The light was dimmed for man after
                           
the fall of Adam.
                               
We seek the truth in Jesus.
                               
We follow Him.
                               
We live by His Word.
                               
We are sons and daughters of the Father.
                               
Mary is our spiritual Mother.
                               
May the spirit within us always be
                           
in the true Spirit and be connected to
                           
Jesus — He is the vine —
we are the
                           
branches.
He gives life to us.
                               
He is the gift given to us from
                           
the Father. He gives Himself to us in
                           
the Holy Eucharist.
He outpours His Life.
                                
Please remember us in your will.
