                Mary: My Dear Child,

 

Judges 6: 11-24

The Angel of Yahweh came and sat under the terebinth at Ophrah which belonged to Joash of Abiezer. Gideon his son was threshing wheat inside the wine'press, to keep it hidden from Midian, and the Angel of Yahweh appeared to him and said, 'Yahweh is with you, valiant warrior!' Gideon replied, 'Excuse me, my lord, but if Yahweh is with us, why is all this happening to us? And where are all his miracles which our ancestors used to tell us about when they said, 'Did not Yahweh bring us out of Egypt?' But now Yahweh has deserted us; he has abandoned us to Midian.'

    At this, Yahweh turned to him and said, 'Go in this strength of yours, and you will rescue Israel from the power of Midian. Am I not sending you myself?' Gideon replied, 'Forgive me, my lord, but how can I deliver Israel? My clan is the weakest in Manasseh and I am the least important of my father's family.' Yahweh replied, 'I shall be with you and you will crush Midian as though it were one man.' Gideon said, 'If I have found favour in your sight, give me a sign that you are speaking to me. Please do not go away from here until I come back to you, bringing you my offering and laying it before you.' And he replied, 'I shall stay until you come back.'

    Gideon went away, he prepared a young goat and from an ephah of flour he made unleavened cakes. He put the meat into a basket and the broth into a pot, then brought it all to him under the terebinth. As he approached, the Angel of Yahweh said to him, 'Take the meat and unleavened cakes, put them on this rock and pour the broth over them.' Gideon did so. The Angel of Yahweh then stretched out the tip of the staff which he was carrying, and touched the meat and unleavened cakes. Fire sprang from the rock and consumed the meat and unleavened cakes, and the Angel of Yahweh vanished before his eyes. Gideon then knew that this was the Angel of Yahweh, and he said, 'Alas, my Lord Yahweh! Now I have seen the Angel of Yahweh face to face!' Yahweh answered, 'Peace be with you; have no fear; you will not die.' Gideon built an altar there to Yahweh and called it Yahweh'Peace. This altar stands in our own day at Ophrah of Abiezer.

 

Psalm 85: 9, 11-14

His saving help is near for those who fear him,
his glory will dwell in our land.

Loyalty will spring up from the earth, 
and Justice will lean down from heaven. 

Yahweh will himself give prosperity, 
and our soil will yield its harvest. 
Justice will walk before him, 
treading out a path.

 

Matthew 19: 23-30

Then Jesus said to his disciples, 'In truth I tell you, it is hard for someone rich to enter the kingdom of Heaven. Yes, I tell you again, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for someone rich to enter the kingdom of Heaven.' When the disciples heard this they were astonished. 'Who can be saved, then?' they said. Jesus gazed at them. 'By human resources', he told them, 'this is impossible; for God everything is possible.'

Then Peter answered and said, ‘Look, we have left everything and followed you. What are we to have, then?’ Jesus said to them, ‘In truth I tell you, when everything is made new again and the Son of man is seated on his throne of glory, you yourselves will sit on twelve thrones to judge the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses, brothers, sisters, father, mother, children or land for the sake of my name will receive a hundred times as much, and also inherit eternal life. 'Many who are first will be last, and the last, first.'

  

                Mary: I am the Queen of Peace

                Harken to the call of the Lord

                For you were hungry and He fed you,
                But you must stay focused on God

                Do not falter from what He commands you, any longer.
                Go to Him and He will hear your cries.

                Jesus gives you Himself —
                You must focus on this, my child —
                The night comes and you want to give up your
                    hope my people

                God has spoken for the night —
                That your hope in Him never falters

                I am Mary from sunny Florida —
                I appear to deliver this message to you
                open your eyes, so you see with the light of
                    7 suns

                Your eyes will see the light as you go to My Immaculate
                    Heart and allow the Holy Spirit to fill you with Wisdom —

                Seek not the council of the stupid
                    Look to God
                    Keep your eyes focused on heavenly things —
                    Do not be swallowed up by the earthly that
                        are rooted in the world

                When night comes let your lamps be ready —
                    do not be caught unaware or enslaved
                    to the worldly allurements —

                Let children know safe harbor —
                    The womb is precious to the Lord
                    God creates each soul and wedges it in a body —
                    Do not take a knife to a precious little one
                        created by God
                    Oh slaughter not your brother whether old or
                        young or in the womb —

                Remember always the commandments of God
                Thou shalt not kill —

                God gave Moses the 10 Commandments —
                    My children you must obey your God —
                    Not deceive yourself thinking you can disobey
                        and not receive the consequences

                Sun shines so you can see,
                    but a blind man sees in his heart —
                    Your lamps show the light of God in the
                        sunlight and the black, moon beaming night

                    For you are children of the light
                    You walk following the Light of the World —
                    You walk following Jesus

                    Let your light shine so they will
                        praise your Heavenly Father and that
                        you will teach others by your example —

                Let not your hearts be crushed by holding onto
                    vain glory —
                    the things of the world perish and die —
                    You were made body and soul to praise your God
                    and help to build His Kingdom —

                Jesus gives you His letters of love, my children, in
                    the Blue Books —
                    spread these to my hungry children,
                    thirsting for God's love
                    thirsting to be fed by the Eucharist

                God gives you the Bread of Life
                    You have the Scriptures — His Word
                    You have the Eucharist

                Song: God's Love

                Choose Life

                Jesus gives you the Bread of Life

    

Matthew 4: 3

and the tester came and said to him, ‘If you are Son of God, tell these stones to turn into loaves.’ But he replied, ‘Scripture says: 

    Human beings live not on bread alone 
    but on every word 
        that comes from the mouth of God.’ 

 

                Mary speaks:

                    Do not be tempted by the things of the world —

                    Do not give into the wounded human nature
                        that seeks dominance for dominance
                        sake, that is impure with jealous
                        eyes, lust —

                    Let your hearts be pure —
                        for your heavenly Father wants you to
                            grow in greater perfection — likened to Him

                    Come away with me, my children dwell in
                        my heart and the Heart of my Son your
                        little heaven on earth —

 

Act of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

"Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock, I consecrate myself to Your most Sacred Heart. From Your pierced Heart the Church was born, the Church You have called me, as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, to serve in a most special way. You reveal Your Heart as a symbol of Your love in all its aspects, including Your most special love for me, whom You have chosen as Your companion in this most important work. Help me to always love You in return. Help me to give myself entirely to You. Help me always to pour out my life in love of God and neighbor! Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You!

"Dear Blessed Virgin Mary, I consecrate myself to your maternal and Immaculate Heart, this Heart which is symbol of your life of love. You are the Mother of my Savior. You are also my Mother. You love me with a most special love as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, a movement created by your Son as a powerful instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. In a return of love, I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock."

 

  

                My children pray these prayers Jesus told Fr. Carter to
                    pray

  

Fr. Carter had a dream.
