Psalm 23: 1-6

Yahweh is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 
In grassy meadows he lets me lie. 

By tranquil streams he leads me 
    to restore my spirit. 
He guides me in paths of saving justice 
    as befits his name. 

Even were I to walk in a ravine as dark as death 
I should fear no danger, for you are at my side. 
Your staff and your crook are there to soothe me. 

You prepare a table for me 
    under the eyes of my enemies; 
you anoint my head with oil; 
    my cup brims over. 

Kindness and faithful love pursue me 
    every day of my life. 
I make my home in the house of Yahweh 
    for all time to come.

        

                R. I want to be with You for all eternity —
                    Forgive my sins, oh Lord.
                    I want to dwell with You in eternity.
                    Oh God, help me to live as You
                        desire now.

   

Proverbs 31: 10-13, 18-20, 30-31

Aleph   The truly capable woman—who can find her?
                She is far beyond the price of pearls.

Bet       Her husband’s heart has confidence in her,
                from her he will derive no little profit.

Gimel   Advantage and not hurt she brings him
                all the days of her life.

Dalet    She selects wool and flax,
                she does her work with eager hands.

Tet      She knows that her affairs are gong well;
                her lamp does not go out at night.

Yod       She sets her hands to the distaff,
                her fingers grasp the spindle.

Kaph    She holds out her hands to the poor,
                she opens her arms to the needy.

Shin      Charm is deceitful, and beauty empty;
                the woman who fears Yahweh is the one to praise.

Taw       Give her a share in what her hands have worked for,
                and let her works tell her praises at the city gates.

 

Romans 14: 7-12

For none of us lives for himself and none of us dies for himself; while we are alive, we are living for the Lord, and when we die, we die for the Lord: and so, alive or dead, we belong to the Lord. It was for this purpose that Christ both died and came to life again: so that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.  

Why, then, does one of you make himself judge over his brother, and why does another among you despise his brother? All of us will have to stand in front of the judgement–seat of God: as scripture says: By my own life says the Lord, every knee shall bow before me, every tongue shall give glory to God. It is to God, then, that each of us will have to give an account of himself.

    

John 14: 1-7

    Do not let your hearts be troubled. 
    You trust in God, trust also in me. 
    In my Father’s house 
        there are many places to live in; 
    otherwise I would have told you. 
    I am going now to prepare a place for you, 
    and after I have gone 
        and prepared you a place, 
    I shall return to take you to myself, 
    so that you may be with me 
    where I am. 
    You know the way 
        to the place where I am going. 

        Thomas said, ‘Lord, we do not know where you are going, so how can we know the way?’ Jesus said: 

        I am the Way; I am Truth and Life. 
    No one can come to the Father 
        except through me. 
    If you know me, 
        you will know my Father too. 
    From this moment you know him 
        and have seen him. 

 

                R. We can walk around and talk to
                    people —
                    then all of a sudden we can pass away
                    and we are not prepared —

                The person who dies, hopefully has
                    gone to God and now is waiting for us
                    to catch up to them —

                We are to be faithful to our vocation —
                    We are to follow Jesus —
                    Jesus, who says, I am the way, the truth and the life.

                This Gospel was from when Jesus knew
                    He would go and
                    yet He said "do not let your
                        hearts be troubled"

                We have that assurance that Jesus
                    showed us — He teaches us His way —

                Jesus says He will prepare a place
                    for us —

                We will all have this journey to
                    follow —

                We can lay down in the cemetery —
                    At the Funeral Mass —
                    We need to be ready when Jesus
                        says its time for us to meet
                        our Maker and leave this
                        world —

                We can receive baptism — what a gift
                God gives us this grace —

                Sing: Bread of Life —

                God dwells in the graced baptized soul —
                    The Father, Son and Holy Spirit
                    dwell in us.

                Jesus wept at the death of His friend Lazarus.

                Dear God, cleanse us of our sins, help
                    us now —

                Sing: We Remember

The Descent of the Holy Spirit

4. R. As you transformed the Apostles from fear to fearlessness, dear Holy Spirit, transform us from fear to fearlessness to go out to this world, to be strong, to stand up for the love of God. We truly have the Good News! How can we hold back when we know in our hearts this immense love of God? How can we hold back this Good News and talk about such incidental little things? But we know! We know that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is present here this day and in our midst in His Divinity and humanity, with the greatest love. He longs and waits for us and calls out to us, and His Mother calls to us this day to take this plea seriously. The time is urgent. Souls will be lost for not knowing the love of God! Can you see your suffering brothers in hell, condemned to eternal damnation? What will we do when people look into our grave? Will it matter what people thought then? Or will it matter how we loved God and loved one another? Jesus and Mary call out to each one of us this day to rid our hearts of impurities of hate and anger for Jesus unites with us in holiness, purity. He is waiting for you with His love.

Sorrowful Mysteries
Feast of Blessed Katharine Drexel
 Season of Lent - First Friday - 12:00 Noon
Before the Tabernacle 

                Jesus: I, Jesus, call out to you — will you help Me?

                The Agony in the Garden

1. Jesus: How it pleases My aching Heart that you have come to join Me and be with Me, present between 12:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. on Friday. This time is so special to Me, the time that I hung on the cross in such agony.

2. Jesus: My Heart beats so many beats for each one of you, an endless burning love; and you do not hear Me say, second by second, moment by moment, in your busy lives how I love you.

3. Jesus: The hour that is at hand is so precious to My Heart. As I suffered with the agony in the Garden, I was comforted by the acts of love that you give to Me this very day.

4. Jesus: Come, My beloved chosen ones, so dear to My Heart. I call out to you to put yourself into My presence, to block out your world, to close yourself off and be alone with Me, to share this hour in intimacy with My burning Heart on fire for love of you.

5. Jesus: Do you see the screen that I have placed around you? Do you see this so you can be alone with Me?

6. Jesus: This is the hour that we will share great love. You and I! My beloved ones, how dear you are to Me! Come and be ever closer to My Most burning Heart on fire for love of you!

7. Jesus: Blood red! My blood was ever so red! It is the fire of My burning Heart. I truly shed My most precious blood for you, My dear ones. Focus on My blood. Focus on red during this hour, on My blood on fire for love of you!

8. Jesus: I saw before Me all My Passion. I saw everything that I would receive. But the worst was the agony to My Most Precious Heart for the souls this day that treat Me coldly, indifferently, and I love them dearly.

9. Jesus: Open your heart wide and let Me fill you with My life given this hour. I pour into your heart My abundant love, My abundant life. As you receive this increase in My life, My grace abundantly poured out to you and know more My Divine love, I ask you to go out into the world to spread this love to all your brothers. My dear ones, did you not know My love? It is through Me that they will see this immense love that I have given to you.

10. Song: Oh Burning Heart, O Love Divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the Host, I know You are here to love and care for me.

(Song between decades: I come to you with greatest love, I am your loving Savior. I am your God, I died for you. I come to you this day.)

  

Jesus is Scourged at the Pillar

1. Jesus: They beat Me! They scourged Me! My back, covered with open wounds! I bled so profusely! This blood I shed for love of you, My dear ones. Do you see? Do you see even a little of this immense love that I have for you? Pray to the Holy Spirit to open your eyes, to open your hearts more to realize the immense love that God has for you. The Father sent His only begotten Son into this world born of the Virgin Mary. I am with you this day in this room truly present. God, is present and in your midst! As you focus on the blood that I shed, look at My back wounded deeply and bleeding. Do you see?

2. Jesus: I am with you! God is in your presence and how I love you! I can tell you and tell you and tell you, but you must open your hearts and realize I am speaking to you! When you realize more My love, you will give to this world the love that I want to give through you. Your gift to this world is to open your heart wide and let Me penetrate your being so it is no longer you who live, but I who live in you. I am in you this day. I am present in this room the same as the day I walked on this earth. I am here with you, My chosen ones! You are My army to go out into the world and to spread the Good News!

3. R. Jesus stood in a puddle of His own blood! What more do we need to see the love that Jesus has for us? But we reach to the world and we ask the world to fill our needs when minute by minute, second by second, He is within. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit dwell within us when we are baptized and in the state of grace — God dwells in our graced baptized soul. And that soft gentle voice of Jesus cries out: "I love you, I love you, I love you"!

4. Jesus: My soldiers, My soldiers, My soldiers, I send you into this world, a world that has become godless. You are in the midst of wolves. They will spit on you, they will persecute you. But you will know the fire of My love as it burns within your heart, burning deeply, brightly. Your heart will be warmed with intensity for no person on the face of this earth can ever take you from the interior love that you feel within your breast. You will be strong and stand against the world. When the wind blows and it knocks on you, you will stand straight. You will be supported by the fire of My love that is within you. I am a pillar within your heart and it is through My strength that you will be My soldiers to go into this world that has forgotten God. I call out to you this day. Surrender, surrender, surrender to the God who loves you so that He was scourged at the pillar, covered with blood, beaten! This is the love I have for you. Do you need more proof?

5. Song: I come to you with greatest love, I am your loving Savior. I am your God, I died for you. I come to you this day.

6. Jesus: A pillar of strength! My dear chosen ones, I love you!

7. Jesus: Do you hear My cry and My plea? They are the cries of God! This world is in such a shape and who can I call if you will not answer? You do not know the sorrow with which I call out to you! Please, listen to My pleading! Look at the world! Look at the children that are being wounded before they are even able to talk. Children are being violated! Whom can I call if you do not answer? I call to you, My chosen ones, this day to take a stand. I call you to realize the intensity of My pleading. I am pleading to you to spread My love letters throughout this world, they are My letters of deepest love that touch hearts deeply within. I ask you, will you help Me spread My love to a world that has forgotten God, a world that murders babies, a world that poisons children with the television within their own homes? Do not hold back! I call out to you this day. Who will answer if you will not answer Me when I talk to you.

8. Jesus: I talk to you, to go out to this world, to realize that I am asking you to spread My love. I will fill you with abundant love inside of your hearts that you will be fixed in union with Me, that you will know My life in you, My love as it burns within your breast. You will be compensated for the efforts that you produce.

9. Jesus: I was scourged at the pillar for love of your brother! Do you know how I love these souls that are sinning, that are in pain? I ask you to go out, to be strong, to pray to the Spirit for the fearlessness that you need to do this job. I will fill you with abundant grace to carry out this mission that I call you to this day. You will be My warriors, marching on a world that is sick and suffering. Pray for strength!

10. Jesus: I will make My plan visible to you. You must surrender. You must pray for union with Me so that it is no longer you who operate, but I Who operate through you. I am Jesus, the same Jesus that was born in Bethlehem. I am with you this day in the Tabernacle, pleading and begging you to do the work that I am asking you to do - to spread My love to the hurting world.

(Song between decades: I come to you with greatest love, I am your loving Savior. I am your God, I died for you. I come to you this day.)

    

Jesus is Crowned with a Crown of Thorns

1. Jesus: Be with Me! Feel the blood as it rolls down My face from the thorns! See with the blurry eyes that I saw through! Blood, covering My eyes! Do you see your world or do you close your eyes? Whom do I call if you to whom I am speaking will not answer?

2. Jesus: I want to be so close to you! I want to be joined as one with you! I want to live in you, to act from you! You must surrender! Give up that control. Pray for union, greater and greater union. For I will send you as warriors into this world and I will act through you. You do not have to think about what you will do. You must be joined in union with Me and I will act. Let go of your control. Surrender more and more to Me!

3. Jesus: As I looked at the world through blood stained eyes, you must look at the world, but see clearly the sin that is before you. See the world in the state it is in. See the children as they are suffering. See the paper. See the television. See all those that are sinning throughout the world. Your light connected to Me can affect many souls. You do not know the power of a heart that is united to the Almighty God. A heart that is one with God is filled - a light. Focus on My power and you will realize I can operate in you. Surrender and become one with Me. I will operate in you. Your job is to draw ever closer to My Heart, to consecrate your hearts to My Most Sacred Heart and the Heart of My Mother. Surrender! Surrender! Surrender!

4. Jesus: Know this! I want to be so close to you. Every second of your existence be aware that I live in you and am saying to you — I love you, I love you, I love you!

5. Jesus: You are wed to Me. Moment by moment, realize that I am the Bridegroom of your soul! There is such intensity between the relationship that we have, but you must let go. Second by second, realize that I am living in you!

6. Jesus: See Me all through My passion, perfect peace on My face! I knew the Father's love. You will know My love, My immense love more and more in your heart. It is your free will to surrender and become ever closer to Me.

7. Jesus: I speak to you in the inner prompting of your heart. With each one of you, I want to be wed to your soul. I want to be the Bridegroom of your soul. Purify your hearts! Make your souls spotless for I am the bridegroom of your soul.

8. Jesus: When you receive Me in the Eucharist, let go! Let go and let Me operate in your heart!

9. Song: Oh Burning Heart, O Love Divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the Host, I know You are here to love and care for me.

10. Jesus: Be one in Me!

(Song between decades: I come to you with greatest love, I am your loving Savior. I am your God, I died for you. I come to you this day.)

  

Jesus Carries His Cross Up Calvary

1. Jesus: I carried My cross on My back. I carried the heavy cross laden with the sins of men. I carried the cross with greatest love. I did not complain. I did not put it down. I give you crosses. You will receive more and more My abundant life in staying rooted in Me. Accept all the sufferings that I give to you and know that they will draw you ever closer to My Heart. In every thorn, there is a rose! I never give you more than you can handle. In these sufferings I draw you closer to Me.

2. Jesus: As I walked, My Mother forever by My side, she walks by you in all your sufferings. Focus on My Mother! How close she truly is to you! You do not walk alone, you are surrounded by angels and saints. You are so chosen and so loved. Open up your hearts and let Me penetrate your souls. Let Me teach you My ways. There is so much that I have to give to you.

3. R. And their eyes peered into each other's eyes. That look of such intimacy!

Jesus: The key to your intimacy with Me, with God, is through Mary, My beloved Mother! I love My Mother! I want you to come through the Heart of My beloved Mother into My Heart. Consecrate yourselves daily to Her Heart and to My Heart.

4. Jesus: Her Heart was pierced with a sword. My Heart was pierced with a lance. The symbols of such love for you that we suffered. In love there is suffering. These Two Hearts are great symbols of our love for you. Come to our Hearts and dwell there! Forever in our Hearts! Come through My pierced Heart and dwell deeply in such abundant love for I truly love you, My beloved ones!

5. Song: Oh Burning Heart, O Love Divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the Host, I know You are here to love and care for me.

6. Jesus: I call out to you to open up your hearts and to pray for those who plug up their ears and close their eyes for I am truly here in your midst this day in such a special way. I ask you to pray, pray, pray to open the hearts of those who will spread My love throughout this world.

7. Jesus: The blind do not see and the deaf do not hear! They have plugged up their ears! They have closed their eyes! Pray more and more for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit to descend upon all here to open their hearts to the fire of My burning love. I truly am on fire with love for you. See the blood which I shed on the way to Calvary. See Me covered from head to My feet with wounds, with thorns! This is the love that I have for you. Pray for your brothers! Pray for an outpouring of the Spirit. You do not know the power of your prayers when you are fixed closely to My Heart. The deeper in union you are with Me, the greater your intercessory prayers. I ask you this day to unite with My Heart, to be drawn ever closer to My Heart.

8. Jesus: Your prayers offered up in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout this world are so important. Pray! Pray! Pray! Every act you do that is in accordance with the Father's will when offered up with the Mass, is a mighty prayer. I ask you today to see Me under the cross! This is the extent that I went to, to save the souls that I love. Will you help Me spread this love throughout this world?

9. Jesus: Total surrender! They stripped Me of My garments! I gave My all for love of you!

10. Jesus: Will you surrender to a Heart that loves you?

(Song between decades: I come to you with greatest love, I am your loving Savior. I am your God, I died for you. I come to you this day.)

   

Jesus is Crucified and Dies on the Cross

1. Jesus: Such grace I outpour to you in this Holy Hour between 12:00 noon and 3:00 p.m. before the Blessed Sacrament - the time that I hung for three agonizing hours to My death! My greatest suffering was not the physical suffering, as intense as it was. It was to My most precious Heart that loves and thirsts for souls, the souls that have forgotten God, that sin constantly, that have cut themselves off from the great gifts that I want to give to them. This is the greatest agony that I experienced during My hours on the cross, for the souls that would be condemned to eternal damnation despite My suffering.

2. Jesus: See Me there against the darkened sky with a weakened body, hanging!

3. Jesus: Can you not trust? Picture in your mind this picture. I gave My flesh! I gave My blood! I gave My all for love of you!

4. Jesus: You must totally let go. As you see Me hanging with My arms suspended, as you see Me hanging, I gave the last drop of My blood, the last beat of My Heart. I gave My all! It is in surrender that miracles will happen in your life. Constantly you must hear that gentle voice in your heart telling you: I love you, I love you, I love you!

5. Jesus: Does a mother forget her child, the child at her breast? If a mother would forsake her child, I will never, ever abandon you!

6. Jesus: In the greatest suffering, there is new life!

7. Jesus: Die to yourselves that you might live more and more in Me!

8. Jesus: If a mother forsake her child, I will never abandon you!

9. Song: I come to you with greatest love, I am your loving Savior. I am your God, I died for you. I come to you this day.

10. Jesus: Be alone with Me! This time alone is so precious to My Most Sacred Heart!

Jesus: I outpour to you My grace in such abundance! Open up your hearts and let Me penetrate your being for I am truly present here with you this day. Your hearts will be drawn ever closer to My Heart. Surrender! Surrender! Surrender to the God Who gave His flesh and blood, Who gave His life, Who gives His Body to you this day! With burning love, My life I give to you, all that you need. Second by second, I am within you. Surrender! Surrender! Surrender!

(Song between decades: I come to you with greatest love, I am your loving Savior. I am your God, I died for you. I come to you this day.)

 

This rosary was prayed in the Holy Spirit Chapel of the Holy Spirit Center before Jesus in the Tabernacle at 12:00 noon. Rita, Daniel, Mary, Sue R., Karen, Ed and Marty were present.

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 10.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A — The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15

 

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 10.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C — In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15

Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #1 - CD. - Christ is Our Strength - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our-selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10

Each one is also called to share in that suffering through which the redemption was accomplished. He is called to share in that suffering through which all human suffering has also been redeemed. In bringing about the redemption through suffering, Christ has also raised human suffering to the level of the redemption. Thus each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ..." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
