Sirach 17: 1-15

  The Lord fashioned human beings from the earth, to consign them back to it. He gave them so many days and so much time, he gave them authority over everything on earth. He clothed them in strength, like himself, and made them in his own image. He filled all living things with dread of human beings, making them masters over beasts and birds. He made them a tongue, eyes and ears, and gave them a heart to think with. He filled them with knowledge and intelligence, and showed them what was good and what evil. He put his own light in their hearts to show them the magnificence of his works, so that they would praise his holy name as they told of his magnificent works. He set knowledge before them, he endowed them with the law of life. He established an eternal covenant with them, and revealed his judgements to them. Their eyes saw the majesty of his glory, and their ears heard the glory of his voice. He said to them, ‘Beware of all wrong–doing’; he gave each a commandment concerning his neighbour.

The divine judge

Their ways are always under his eye, they cannot be hidden from his sight.

 

Psalm 103: 13-18

As tenderly as a father treats his children, 
so Yahweh treats those who fear him; 
he knows of what we are made, 
he remembers that we are dust. 

As for a human person—his days are like grass, 
he blooms like the wild flowers; 
as soon as the wind blows he is gone, 
never to be seen there again. 

But Yahweh’s faithful love for those who fear him 
is from eternity and for ever; 
and his saving justice to their children’s children; 
as long as they keep his covenant, 
and carefully obey his precepts.

    

Mark 10: 13-16

People were bringing little children to him, for him to touch them. The disciples scolded them, but when Jesus saw this he was indignant and said to them, ‘Let the little children come to me; do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs. In truth I tell you, anyone who does not welcome the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.’ Then he embraced them, laid his hands on them and gave them his blessing.

   

R. Author of book of Sirach
    is telling us God created us in His image
        and likeness
        He gave man knowledge and understanding
            to lead man back to God
        Man is to enjoy creation for God's purpose —

In the Gospel Jesus tells us we must be
    childlike - to realize our dependence
    of God —

There are many people who are serving
    God —
God created man and woman to give
    man a sign of God's love for
    them —
    They are to love each other —
    They are to sacrifice for each other —

We are to realize we are dependent on
    God —

Every good thing we have comes from
    God for the honor and glory of God —

We are to be like little children —
God gives us these things to return
    glory to God —

Sacrifice

I unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass —
I love God and I love others —

I pray to the Father — united to the sacrifice
    of Jesus in the Holy Spirit with all the angels and
    saints — through the powerful intercession
    of Mary and united to the souls in purgatory —

I praise You God
I love You God
I give thanks to You, Oh God
I want to help make reparation for my sins and
    the sins of the world —

Oh God help us —
Oh God help us to have funds to do this work —
Oh God protect us —
Oh God give us the grace to trust —
Oh God help us to be one —
Oh God help us to be more and more in Your
    image and likeness —
Oh God help us in our work —
Oh God help us to love You and others more —

Song: Give Me Your Heart Oh Jesus

Jesus: Do you love Me?
    Really love Me?
    Carry your cross and love —
    This too will pass —
    Remember this —
    I am always with you
    I love you so —

 

John 17: 20-23

I pray not only for these
but also for those
who through their teaching
    will come to believe in me.
May they all be one,
just as, Father, you are in me
    and I am in you,
so that they also may be in us,
so that the world may believe
    it was you who sent me.
I have given them the glory
    you gave to me,
that they may be one as we are one.
With me in them and you in me,
may they be so perfected in unity
that the world will recognise
    that it was you who sent me
and that you have loved them
    as you have loved me.

     


Jesus: I am the Lamb of God —

I love you, My child —
I died for you —
I rose on the 3rd day —
Oh child — rejoice
Pray as I taught you

Our Father

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. Amen.

  

                R. Heal me God —
                Help me God —
                Help me to love, God —
                Help me to be as You want me to be —

                Oh God, my God, I love You so much —
                    I love God —
                    Oh God if I know You — really know You
                    I cannot help but to love —

                Please God, give me grace —
                Please help me God —
                    I love You God —
                    I want to serve You God

                Come Holy Spirit fill me
                Come Holy Spirit help me
                Come Holy Spirit I love You
                Oh my God, I need You —

   

1 Corinthians 10: 1-6, 10-12

I want you to be quite certain, brothers, that our ancestors all had the cloud over them and all passed through the sea. In the cloud and in the sea they were all baptised into Moses; all ate the same spiritual food and all drank the same spiritual drink, since they drank from the spiritual rock which followed them, and that rock was Christ. In spite of this, God was not pleased with most of them, and their corpses were scattered over the desert. Now these happenings were examples, for our benefit, so that we should never set our hearts, as they did, on evil things;

Never complain; some of them complained, and they were killed by the Destroyer. Now all these things happened to them by way of example, and they were described in writing to be a lesson for us, to whom it has fallen to live in the last days of the ages. Everyone, no matter how firmly he thinks he is standing, must be careful he does not fall.

    

 

 

Third Sunday of Lent
March 11, 2007 (excerpt)

INTRODUCTION – ... The theme that “the Lord is kind and merciful” shows up again in the gospel in a short parable about a fig tree. It was given opportunities of every kind to produce fruit, but it failed to do so. “The Lord is kind and merciful,” but he expects us not to take his mercy for granted. With the help of his kindness, he expects us to grow in goodness and holiness. ...

I said in my introduction that the theme for today is “the Lord is kind and merciful.” He is kind and merciful in many ways. One of the ways he is kind and merciful is in calling us to repentance and renewal. In the book of Revelation Jesus said: “Whoever is dear to me I reprove and chastise. Be earnest about it, therefore. Repent! Here I stand, knocking at the door. If anyone hears me calling and opens the door, I will enter his house and have supper with him, and he with me.” This assumes that we all have room for improvement. God asks that of us and he also gives us the help we need to be better. That is kindness to us. He would not be kind if he didn’t stimulate us to keep improving ourselves. The fact that he challenges us to change comes from his love as a caring parent. The parable of the fig tree is a call to live a positive life according to the gospel - doing good by loving God and others. ...

This season of Lent keeps reminding us of our need to grow in holiness and goodness. Many people I have talked with do nothing special during Lent. They think they’re good enough. Others start off Lent with a great deal of enthusiasm praying more, making sacrifices or doing good work. But as the weeks drag on, they ease up with their good resolutions. We still have four more weeks of Lent. Our readings today are encouraging us to do what we can so we can come to Easter with mind and heart renewed. ...

 

2 Corinthians 5: 17-21

So for anyone who is in Christ, there is a new creation: the old order is gone and a new being is there to see. It is all God’s work; he reconciled us to himself through Christ and he gave us the ministry of reconciliation. I mean, God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not holding anyone’s faults against them, but entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. 

    So we are ambassadors for Christ; it is as though God were urging you through us, and in the name of Christ we appeal to you to be reconciled to God. For our sake he made the sinless one a victim for sin, so that in him we might become the uprightness of God.

 

 

 

 

Fourth Sunday of Lent
March 18, 2007 (excerpt)

... I want to tell you about another young man whose story is somewhat similar. He was Catholic to start with but admits that he was not a very good one. His father was a government official and this young man enjoyed the comforts of those who were well off. He described himself at sixteen as a scatterbrained youth who had “turned away from God and did not keep his commandments.” As his story goes, he was kidnapped and sold as a slave and made to labor on a farm for six years. Like the prodigal son who was without friends and who suffered without adequate food or shelter, this young man came to his senses and he learned obedience through what he suffered. He discovered (and we quote) ”God showed me how to have faith in him forever, as one who is never to be doubted.” After six years God spoke to him in a way that he heard with his own ears. He would escape and God audibly told him when to leave and what direction to go in order to accomplish his escape. Miraculously God protected him along the way until he arrived back home. Like the prodigal son, he came home a new person. Although his parents wanted to keep him at home with them, his love for God led him to want to serve God as a priest. Even more than serving as a priest, his love for others led him to want to return to the people who captured and enslaved him and teach them about God. And that he did. After overcoming many obstacles, including rejection by the hierarchy, a breach of confidence by a friend to whom he entrusted a confession of his past life, his lack of education and social graces, he returned as a bishop to the people who had enslaved him. Once he arrived he wasn’t greeted with open arms. Again, in his own words, he said “daily I expect either murder, or robbery, or enslavement.” He writes elsewhere “they seized me with my companions. And on that day they most eagerly desired to kill me; but my time had not yet come. And everything they found with us they plundered, and myself they bound in chains.” He feared nothing, for even if he were to be put to death, he felt that would have been the supreme act of love for his God. But God had other intentions than that he should be a martyr. For 30 years he served God and the people who once enslaved him and his work was blessed. He ordained many bishops and priests, established convents, monasteries and schools and in thirty years saw the conversion of almost all of Ireland. And of course you all know I’ve been talking about St. Patrick, who is one of our patronal saints and whose statue is under the choir loft. His work was so successful that in a short time Ireland was sending out missionaries to revitalize the faith of Europe which had fallen into decline. Irish missionaries have been a blessing to the Church ever since.

For those who are Irish and who honor Patrick, the best way to truly honor him is not by drinking a Guinness. We should respond to his example and his call to holiness. Again quoting Patrick, he asks those who believe in him and love him to “strengthen and confirm your faith…That will be my glory, for a wise son is the glory of his father.”

And for those who are not Irish and who think too much is made of St. Patrick on March 17th, I would like you to think of how our faith has been strengthened by the witness of many Irish saints and how our civilization has been preserved by the scholarship of the Irish during the days when mainland Europe was being overrun by barbarians. The great heritage of western civilization, from the Greek and Roman classics to Jewish and Christian works, would have been utterly lost were it not for the holy men and women of unconquered Ireland. These Irish recorded the great works of western civilization in their monasteries and convents (remember all books had to be written by hand). They brought this learning back to Europe after it began to stabilize in the eighth century under Charlemagne. Whether you’re Irish or not, we all owe a great debt to the Irish and we pray that our patron, St. Patrick, blesses our parish and our families.

   

1 Corinthians 11: 23-26

    For the tradition I received from the Lord and also handed on to you is that on the night he was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took some bread, and after he had given thanks, he broke it, and he said, ‘This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.’ And in the same way, with the cup after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Whenever you drink it, do this as a memorial of me.’ Whenever you eat this bread, then, and drink this cup, you are proclaiming the Lord’s death until he comes.

 

1 Corinthians 12: 3-7, 12-13

Because of that, I want to make it quite clear to you that no one who says ‘A curse on Jesus’ can be speaking in the Spirit of God, and nobody is able to say, ‘Jesus is Lord’ except in the Holy Spirit.

There are many different gifts, but it is always the same Spirit; there are many different ways of serving, but it is always the same Lord. There are many different forms of activity, but in everybody it is the same God who is at work in them all. The particular manifestation of the Spirit granted to each one is to be used for the general good.

For as with the human body which is a unity although it has many parts—all the parts of the body, though many, still making up one single body—so it is with Christ. We were baptised into one body in a single Spirit, Jews as well as Greeks, slaves as well as free men, and we were all given the same Spirit to drink.

 

1 Corinthians 6: 13-15, 17-20

Foods are for the stomach, and the stomach is for foods; and God will destroy them both. But the body is not for sexual immorality; it is for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body. God raised up the Lord and he will raise us up too by his power. Do you not realise that your bodies are members of Christ’s body; do you think one can take parts of Christ’s body and join them to the body of a prostitute? Out of the question!

But anyone who attaches himself to the Lord is one spirit with him.

    Keep away from sexual immorality. All other sins that people may commit are done outside the body; but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. Do you not realise that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you and whom you received from God? You are not your own property, then; you have been bought at a price. So use your body for the glory of God.

 

1 Corinthians 12: 12-30

For as with the human body which is a unity although it has many parts—all the parts of the body, though many, still making up one single body—so it is with Christ. We were baptised into one body in a single Spirit, Jews as well as Greeks, slaves as well as free men, and we were all given the same Spirit to drink. And indeed the body consists not of one member but of many. If the foot were to say, ‘I am not a hand and so I do not belong to the body,’ it does not belong to the body any the less for that. Or if the ear were to say, ‘I am not an eye, and so I do not belong to the body,’ that would not stop its belonging to the body. If the whole body were just an eye, how would there be any hearing? If the whole body were hearing, how would there be any smelling? 

    As it is, God has put all the separate parts into the body as he chose. If they were all the same part, how could it be a body? As it is, the parts are many but the body is one. The eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I have no need of you,’ and nor can the head say to the feet, ‘I have no need of you.’ 

    What is more, it is precisely the parts of the body that seem to be the weakest which are the indispensable ones. It is the parts of the body which we consider least dignified that we surround with the greatest dignity; and our less presentable parts are given greater presentability which our presentable parts do not need. God has composed the body so that greater dignity is given to the parts which were without it, and so that there may not be disagreements inside the body but each part may be equally concerned for all the others. If one part is hurt, all the parts share its pain. And if one part is honoured, all the parts share its joy. 

    Now Christ’s body is yourselves, each of you with a part to play in the whole. And those whom God has appointed in the Church are, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers; after them, miraculous powers, then gifts of healing, helpful acts, guidance, various kinds of tongues. Are all of them apostles? Or all prophets? Or all teachers? Or all miracle–workers? Do all have the gifts of healing? Do all of them speak in tongues and all interpret them?

 

1 Corinthians 1: 26-31

Consider, brothers, how you were called; not many of you are wise by human standards, not many influential, not many from noble families. No, God chose those who by human standards are fools to shame the wise; he chose those who by human standards are weak to shame the strong, those who by human standards are common and contemptible—indeed those who count for nothing—to reduce to nothing all those that do count for something, so that no human being might feel boastful before God. It is by him that you exist in Christ Jesus, who for us was made wisdom from God, and saving justice and holiness and redemption. As scripture says: If anyone wants to boast, let him boast of the Lord.

8th Sunday in Ordinary Time

February 25, 1990

HOMILY – (Isaiah 49:14-15, 1 Corinthians 4:1-5, Matthew 6:24-34) I’m sure at Jesus’ time, there was a lot of stress and anxiety. Israel was a country ruled and taxed by an oppressive foreign power. When they said, “what to eat . . .” their main concern was IF they would have anything to eat.

    I don’t know whether their anxiety was greater or less than what we have to face – broken homes, aging parents, delinquency, drugs, AIDS, nuclear weapons, etc. I do know this: even though we have Maalox and martinis, tranquilizers and psychology, we still need to hear the Lord’s wisdom in today’s gospel.

    The American Academy of Family Physicians estimates 2/3 of office visits are prompted by stressrelated symptoms. These include shortness of breath, dizziness, palpitations, trembling, sweating, feeling of choking, nausea, numbness, fear of dying or going crazy, muscle tenseness, inability to concentrate, not sleeping or sleeping too much, not eating or eating too much. Beyond this, stress is a major contributor, either directly or indirectly, to coronary heart disease, cancer, lung ailments, accidental injuries, cirrhosis of the liver, and suicide.

    Many things relate to how stress affects us: exercise, diet, quality of our relationships, the nature of the stressor (the event or the person causing us stress). One thing especially is related to how well we cope with stress: the meaning or interpretation we put on the stressor. To what degree and to what extent do we see it or interpret it as something threatening to us? One example, among thousands, is criticism. Some people have the type of personality that is always insecure. They see everything as threatening. We call them worriers. They worry even if they don’t have something to worry about. Psychologically, they might be said to have a personality trait that is characterized by high anxiety. As Jesus said, they might be weak in faith, or they might have some other emotional predisposition that causes their worrying. For instance, they might have grown up in a home where they felt no security.

    I work professionally with people who suffer emotional pain. Sometimes strengthening one’s faith is a real help. Sometimes counseling or behavioral modification is helpful. Often it is a combination of methods. For many of our ordinary, everyday stresses and anxieties, the Lord’s words can be a real strength and can keep them from getting worse. He is telling us our God loves us. We belong to God, so “enough of worrying.”

    Jesus, our Savior, promises us a future – heaven or hell. But he also came to save us right now. Healing people, sending disciples to heal. He came to bring us life in its fullness. These words of wisdom can save us from many of our anxieties and fears as well as be a source of healing. Enough of worrying; let that be our prescription for health.

    Jesus was not telling us to be irresponsible. We have to work to provide for ourselves and family. We have to study to pass exams. We have to make efforts to develop and improve. Remember the story of the talents. Jesus is not telling us we should stop earning a living, but he did tell us we cannot give ourselves to God and money. Here money symbolizes all those things that can make us selfcentered and not concerned about God and others.

    When we think we can get along well without the Lord, we really are setting ourselves up for stress and anxiety because then we are programming ourselves tothink we have to make it on our own. We must realize we can’t do it. We have a God who helps us – a God who is our rock, our salvation, our stronghold – from him comes all our hope.

                R. To be humble for God
                To turn to the Lord when we fail —
                Recognize we rely on Him

                God teach us Your commandments —
                Jesus is a Wisdom follower
                We pray for what we must do to be
                    His follower

                St. Matthew
                    In sermon on the Mount
                Matthew puts sayings of
                Jesus into large sermons —

                Mark is active oriented

                We need to trust in God
                    strength and power in
                    our lives

   

Sirach 5: 1-8

Do not put your confidence in your money
    or say, ‘With this I am self–sufficient.’
Do not be led by your appetites and energy
    to follow the passions of your heart.
And do not say, ‘Who has authority over me?’
    for the Lord will certainly give you your deserts.
Do not say, ‘I have sinned, but what harm has befallen me?’
    for the Lord’s forbearance is long.
Do not be so sure of forgiveness
    that you add sin to sin.
And do not say, ‘His compassion is great,
    he will forgive me my many sins’;
for with him are both mercy and retribution,
    and his anger does not pass from sinners.
Do not delay your return to the Lord,
    do not put it off day after day;
for suddenly the Lord’s wrath will blaze out,
    and on the day of punishment you will be utterly destroyed.
Do not set your heart on ill–gotten gains,
    they will be of no use to you on the day of disaster.

    

Psalm 1: 1-6

How blessed is anyone who rejects the advice of the wicked
and does not take a stand in the path that sinners tread,
nor a seat in company with cynics,
but who delights in the law of Yahweh
and murmurs his law day and night.

Such a one is like a tree planted near streams;
it bears fruit in season
and its leaves never wither,
and every project succeeds.
How different the wicked, how different!

Just like chaff blown around by the wind
the wicked will not stand firm at the Judgement
nor sinners in the gathering of the upright.
For Yahweh watches over the path of the upright,
but the path of the wicked is doomed.

  

Mark 9: 41-50

‘If anyone gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, then in truth I tell you, he will most certainly not lose his reward.

‘But anyone who is the downfall of one of these little ones who have faith, would be better thrown into the sea with a great millstone hung round his neck. And if your hand should be your downfall, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life crippled, than to have two hands and go to hell, into the fire that can never be put out. And if your foot should be your downfall, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life lame, than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. And if your eye should be your downfall, tear it out; it is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell where their worm will never die nor their fire be put out. For everyone will be salted with fire. Salt is a good thing, but if salt has become insipid, how can you make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves and be at peace with one another.’

 

Sirach 6: 5-17

A kindly turn of speech attracts new friends,
    a courteous tongue invites many a friendly response.
Let your acquaintances be many,
    but for advisers choose one out of a thousand.
If you want to make a friend, take him on trial,
    and do not be in a hurry to trust him;
for one kind of friend is so only when it suits him
    but will not stand by you in your day of trouble.
Another kind of friend will fall out with you
    and to your dismay make your quarrel public,
and a third kind of friend will share your table,
    but not stand by you in your day of trouble:
when you are doing well he will be your second self,
    ordering your servants about;
but, if disaster befalls you, he will recoil from you
    and keep out of your way.
Keep well clear of your enemies,
    and be wary of your friends.
A loyal friend is a powerful defence:
    whoever finds one has indeed found a treasure.
A loyal friend is something beyond price,
    there is no measuring his worth.
A loyal friend is the elixir of life,
    and those who fear the Lord will find one.

Whoever fears the Lord makes true friends,
    for as a person is, so is his friend too.

My Cry is for Souls

R.  My heart was so upset yesterday, I am so frustrated, Jesus tells me things, Jesus talks from my mouth, people do not have time to listen.

    Immense pain in front of the tabernacle Saturday morning 6:45 a.m., So frustrated, so much pain.

    Today went to tabernacle, so much pain, wanted to be one with Him so bad, immense heart ache beyond words, so deep, then my heart slipped into His Heart and I rested in His Heart for one hour and thirty minutes, I did not want it to end.

    I still feel intense frustration, to talk to Him and Mary all day and people do not have time to listen.

R.  Time is so short. He wants to be obeyed. Mary’s messages during the rosary are so important. My frustration is that they are being overlooked. I saw her head moving last night. She was illuminated for over one and one-half hours. Her face also had movement. At the end of the Seven Sorrows we blew out the candles and Jesus’ picture illuminated as those lights that glow in the dark. Especially around His Heart, the ends of the picture and His head.

    He moved His mouth. He wanted the litany said.

February 5, 2001

Jesus:  My children of this world do not listen to Me. I come, Mary comes, people are too busy with their lives. I, in My might, will rock this earth. I tell you, I want these messages published. You think your world needs what you are doing? Your world needs these meditations on My life and that of My Mother’s. Men’s hearts will turn to the love of God through these meditations.

    I will rock this earth. You tarry too much. I want the Blue Books published and circulated. I have spoken, I have spoken, I have begged, I have pleaded. I can in a moment take your breath from you. I have asked and pleaded. You worry for details. You do things your own way. I want the Blue Book published and given away. You do not listen because you do your own will.

    I am Jesus Christ, I am God. I speak to you. You have time for other things and not for My messages. I am talking to you. I am calling out. I have called, I have called, I have knocked down the walls — you do not comprehend that I am talking to you here. You do not listen. You do not have time to read these messages. I want this work accomplished. I will see that My work is accomplished. These messages need to be published. I am calling out an urgent alert. I will rock this earth and you will know My might. You will know I speak here. You, in your busy lives, play your games with Me. I am telling you that My patience is wearing thin. To press on My messenger is not opening your hearts. I am dealing with you. These are My messages to you. Ignore Me and you will suffer. How do I tell you — you ignore My letters! You do not have time to read them. You do not pay heed to the rosary messages. These messages are so important to My Church.

    Play your games, souls will be lost. You hold the mighty medicine to turn souls to My burning love. You take this so lightly. I can rock this earth. For one month before the earthquake I told you that the earth would crack — you do not listen. I want the January 19th message published separately.

    I am Jesus Christ. I have spoken. I am ignored. Mary is appearing as Our Lady of Light each day and I am giving you messages for this world. I beg you to take Me seriously. Your delays are unnecessary. You will suffer. You are suffering at the Center now for not publishing the Third Blue Book that I started in March, 1994. If these messages do not circulate, your workers will remain divided until they do — you ignored My words. Your problem would be resolved if you read these letters. All the answers are in these letters. I will rock this earth. Since the middle of December I have been pressing down in My message — no one pays Me heed.

    If you do not read the letters, how do I get your attention? You are too busy. I want these letters circulated, I want the letters published, I want the letters read. I will rock this earth. I do not get any response from you. What do I do to shake you? I can knock down the walls, I can rock the earth. I ask you gently to take Me seriously. I am Jesus. My cry is for the souls that are hungry for My love. I am pouring out My love to them and you are holding up My messages, My Mother’s meditations — you have put these letters off. Satan is doing everything to stop their publication. These are the letters that will turn men’s hearts to the power of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus Christ.

    I have been patient. I have waited. The big boom was March 22, 1994 — for one month I begged, I pleaded, I told you I would rock the earth. I can remove your blocks. I want these letters to be published and circulated. I am God. I am speaking here. I am Jesus. I am speaking here. My Mother is speaking here. We are being ignored and put off. Your city will shine with the light of My love when you circulate these letters.

    The power is in the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. I beg you to listen to Me. I am God. I want these messages heeded. I want them supported. I want them to circulate and be published. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I beg you to listen to Me. I want My messenger to speak. I am using her as a tool to give My message to this world. I want this message out. I will get it out. It is My message for the world. I ask gently, you delay, you worry for details, you do not obey. Time is so short. People need these messages. The power is in prayer. The power of prayer, fixed to the burning Heart of Jesus, is so powerful. I want union with souls. You will not let go and come to My tabernacle and sit after Communion. You cannot do this job without My power. I have spoken. You need to pray fervently to the Holy Spirit. I beg you to listen. I beg, I beg, I beg. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. These are My messages of love for this world!
