                R. How could anyone even attempt to
                    explain love –

                God is love and He is the ultimate
                    mystery

                To think one can explain the ways
                    of love and the heart is to
                    know insight into the
                    mystery of God's love –

                God is the source of love –
                God is the source of life –

                We reach to explain the unknown,
                    the baby conceived in the
                    womb by the Creator and
                    the union of a man and woman –
                    Can you explain this?

                Can you explain love of a
                    pregnant woman for a
                    child within her womb – 

 

                R. Can you explain the love of
                    that woman for God
                    who gives her the
                    beautiful baby when it
                    is born –

                Can you explain her love for
                    a man who is the father
                    of the child?

                Can you explain disappointment
                    and selfishness of the wounded
                    human nature –

                Can you explain why God chose
                    me to write about the
                    love of the Heart of
                    Jesus?

                Do you think you have a basis
                    for your answers in
                    explaining the Love of the
                    Sacred Heart in your mind slot?

                Why wouldn't Jesus, the Divine
                    God who gives us the
                    Mass, the Sacrifice of
                    Calvary, sacramentally
                    made present –
                    use my hand & my mouth
                    to tell us how to love –

                How to have relationship with
                    the Father as a member of
                    the mystical body of Christ?

                How do men know the heart of
                    man, never satisfied on
                    this earth, but created
                    and fit for heaven –
                    which has not happened yet
                    to a man living –

                How do you expect insight
                    into the hidden mystery
                    of God's love?

                How does a religious who doesn't
                    have a child or
                    spouse know about
                    intimacy with God –
                    spiritual intimacy –

                How the incarnation goes
                    on in us –

                When the vision is men's
                    visions for the
                    Divine Almighty God's
                    Plan –

                Jesus in lavishing love - gives
                    religious a gift of being
                    their Spouse –

                But so many don't treat Him
                    as they should.

                Do they treat Him like
                    their Spouse?

                Do they seek intimate
                    spiritual union with
                    Christ in the Eucharist
                    of putting on Christ,
                    becoming Christ as they
                    eat His body and drink His
                    blood –

                Is the burning Heart of Jesus
                    shown by God to St. Margaret
                    Mary and to me outside of
                    His chest –
                    red with fire –
                    with a cross above it –
                    and thorns around it
                    to be taken lightly –

                Hearts were made for heaven and
                    we will not be satisfied
                    on this earth –

                What man living could explain
                    this –

                Jesus showed me His Heart –
                    Open, white in the
                    center, yellow surrounding
                    that, I felt heat –
                    after communion
                    December 17, 1991 22 years ago

                5 years later
                    December 17, 1996
                    Mary appeared on the building
                    in Clearwater

                Our lives are about loving
                    God and loving others –

                Eternity is about loving
                    in a profound union –

                Life here is to live united
                    to the Mass –

                God wants us to live united to the
                    Mass in lavishing love and
                    relationship all day –
                    every minute with
                    Father, Son and Holy Spirit and
                    others – making reparation –
                    for the sins of the world –

                Why won't you believe God
                    is telling us how to
                    be in relationship with
                    Him in intimate union
                    in the Mass –
                    to make reparation to the
                    Hearts of Jesus and Mary –

The First of 3 Great Visions

Very carefully discerned by Fr. Carter

R. I came to All Saints Church before a beautiful Monstrance of gold that contained Our beloved Savior. He was adorned in light, the altar beneath shone with the brightest light and the cross behind was entirely silhouetted with the same celestial light. I was overwhelmed with the presence of God and cried deeply from the awe of it all.

    To be so aware of the Almighty God truly present in His splendor and glory—to know the presence of God, to see the glistening of the gold and the light and reflection of the cross behind Him—my beauteous love—words do not exist to describe the rapture of a heavenly embrace! I cry because of the immense awe within my being to know Him. God truly present in His majesty and glory and oh, God, I behold the presence of a heavenly court. You opened wide the heavens and lifted up the veil and I knew You in Your splendor and glory. I behold God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

    "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life." He is the Almighty God. He shows us the celestial lights with which He will light this earth. Many must surrender their hearts to His Heart and Mary's heart. It is in surrendering, the Spirit will move in the hearts of men and the light of God will shine on the darkened earth. Not with a light that you comprehend, but a light that is divinely granted—a light beyond all lights, a vision beyond all visions. It takes the surrender of minds and hearts to God. The Spirit cannot move in us when we are in control. Surrender and give Him our heart and He will make us fishers of men.

    We are His apostles in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. He is sending us out into the world to light the hearts with His burning love. We are chosen by Him and He is giving us abundant graces to grow in our union with Him. He will light this world with His burning love. Our hearts must be open. We must surrender and let go and reach beyond the senses, reach with our hearts. Pray for faith, pray for the vision of God.

Note:  I cried all through this writing, having the presence of God and being in great ecstasy to behold Him. May God touch your heart and may His Spirit move within you. May you be filled with the grace of God to surrender and let Him accomplish a great work within you.

    And I was filled on high with His miraculous light and He reached down and spoke within me. I was filled as never before and knew the presence of God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Note:  As I finished, the bells at All Saints Church rang at 9:00 A.M. As I began to experience the immense splendor, the bells of 8:00 rang. Words do not express anything that I saw or experienced or know from this ecstasy. This was the greatest and the first of three visions, which defined clearly to me our role in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Jesus defines clearly the role of Fr. Carter in this great mission given to him by the Father.

For Fr. Carter from Jesus:

Jesus:  To him who has eyes to see, they will see - not with earthly vision, but with the eyes of faith, and to him who has ears to hear, he will hear with the fluttering of the Spirit moving within him.

    I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I am the Almighty God. I say to the rocks to fall and they fall and to the grass, grow, and it grows, and to the sun, shine, and it shines. I give to you My love in these letters. Filled with My love, you will conquer this earth, not with weapons and powder or force, but with fires of My love. The fire will wipe out the hatred in the cold hearts and the earth will be covered with My celestial light. The earth will rock and I will appear in the heavens adorned in power and glory and the contrite hearts will be saved. I came to separate the sheep from the goats, the light from the darkness. I come and no one pays Me heed.

    To you, My beloved son, Father Carter, I have sent you on a mission to spread this fire that will cover this earth. The hearts of men will turn from their sick and desolate ways to hearts gentle as a little lamb.

    There will be one flock and one Shepherd and My staff will rule over all. Hearts consecrated to Our Hearts will lead the light across the earth. This light will be a light of intense brightness, brighter and hotter than any light from a flame. It will be the fire of God's love. The Spirit will move in the hearts of all consecrated to My Heart, and you will know how fire truly spreads, for the love of God is a fire. It is vibrant. It is encompassing. It is smoldering, burning deep within and speedily spreading on the outside. No fire on this earth can ever describe the burning embers that burn from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. No fire burns like the fires coming from My Heart and hearts filled with the love from the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

    I have written your name, Fr. Carter, in My Heart, never ever to be blotted out and this earth will be renewed with the fire of God's love through you. You are My beloved priest-son, forever, according to the order of Melchizedek. Most holy and most sacred are your hands that consecrate the Host and write My precious newsletter for My beloved priest-sons. You are never unguarded. You are held within the deepest chamber of My Heart, and you will spread My love to the priest-sons of this earth.

    I am Jesus. You will spread My love to all souls on this earth. I love you with the tenderest burning love. I am Jesus, your beloved Savior.

From Blue Book 11

April 6, 1996 - Holy Saturday

R. Saturday (April 6, 1996, Holy Saturday) I saw the whole wall adorned in the brightest light, St. Joseph was surrounded in this thick light, like comes from a fire, like a celestial mirror. I don't know how to describe it, it is as a mirror with light in it, but no light like our human eyes have seen. I looked at St. Joseph and he was pushing the Child Jesus out at us, the Baby coming out glistening in light. The statue of the resurrected Lord was alive. All the flowers were topped with this light. This is how it was and is now at All Saints Church. It is as if heaven has poured its light on the earth and it tops the flowers. All distinct lines are gone. In their place is light. So all I look at has a splendor.

 

 

 

April 9, 1996

Lights Dropping on the Flowers

R. I went to All Saints Church - saw with eyes unveiled- such an aura of celestial light. I went to Communion, had the presence of God, wanted to cry so hard from the awe of it all. I was not feeling good and He wrapped me as only He can do in His heavenly embrace. My soul sang out and the vision began. My eyes now are still seeing with this effect. He, as it were, lifts up the hard, defined lines and I see with a celestial aura. This is what I see when I see a vision. The rocks in the grotto Mary has appeared in glisten and they are sparkling. LINES are not defined, instead they are adorned in light.

Today the vision started as the Eucharist was exposed. I knew it was coming. I had this immense presence. Then the lines began to disappear and became smudged with light.

It is the most glorious occurrence to be in the vision. I can talk and tell someone what I am seeing, but I don't want to, I just want to rest in the celestial occurrence and realize the presence of God.

He lifts the veil and I see with eyes unveiled. This is what Mary said from the Lady of Grace statue at the Holy Spirit Center before all this started. She said there would be miracles around the Eucharist. I didn't think she meant I would experience these.

When I saw her 3 times, she had this same light around her. The last time, I think it lasted an hour (March 10). She was beyond description. March 17 may be when she told me about the Eucharist. I must check my notes.   

    Then I saw again the celestial lights of heaven. It was as though light was spilled from heaven and landed on the flowers and the corners of everything. The Eucharist took on an immense warmth and I knew God truly present in this room.

    I saw with eyes unveiled in my soul and in the room. The room had a celestial aura, it no longer looked defined and clear. It was bathed in a gentle, celestial film and all I saw I wanted to tell to those around me. But I was so caught in His embrace that my mouth did not want to move.

    Grace is being spilled on the earth. I have seen this celestial light come upon the altar of sacrifice, the monstrance and the cross. The vision on March 26 (1996) I will never forget as long as I live. The light is so thick and so intense as if the heavens open in these cracks of light and there is a depth far beyond that which any mind can envision.

    The sky opened up and it rained down its grace. It opens when hearts are one in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

... In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.

    The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.

    At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ. St. Paul tells us: "I became a minister of this Church through the commission

 

 

Excerpt from Response in Christ by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

e) Relationship with Members of the Church

There is but one true Church of Christ. Yet this one Church has three different states of existence. There is the pilgrim Church, the Church of this world, composed of members who have received the grace of Christ and strive for its development. They have not yet obtained the goal of their efforts, as have the members of the heavenly Church, who enjoy God in eternal happiness. The Church suffering is an intermediate state of existence necessary for those who had not achieved the required purification as members of the pilgrim Church. Although there are these three phases of the Church’s existence, there is a profound union existing between all the members. All these members possess the same basic life of grace in Christ, and this common life establishes the most intimate bonds of love. In our preceding chapter, we discussed the pilgrim Church. Let us now consider the Church suffering and the heavenly Church.

The members of the Church suffering are those who have departed from this life in an incomplete state of Christian development. Their development is incomplete in the sense that grace has not fully taken possession of them, and, as a result, they are yet closed in upon themselves to a greater or lesser degree. They as yet cannot open themselves out in complete love to the Triune God in the beatific vision. They must undergo a further purification, a purification which could have been achieved upon earth with merit. Now the purification must be achieved with no merit attached. The pain of this purification is mixed with the certain expectation of achieving the vision of God. We can hasten the advent of this vision for this people by the offering of prayers and other good works. Scripture itself refers to our action on behalf of those in purgatory in Chapter 12 of the Second Book of Maccabees beginning with verse 38.

The members of the heavenly Church are those in whom the life of grace has taken full possession and has reached its completion in the life of glory. Faith now is unnecessary, as the light of glory gives the human intellect a new strength and capacity for seeing God face-to-face. While the Christian was a wayfarer, he received the imprint of the indwelling Trinity as he shared in God’s own life. Now in heaven that grace-life and possession of God reaches its completion—the absolute completion is not achieved, however, until the resurrection of the body. The divine persons give Themselves to the beatified in a profound union far surpassing that of the indwelling of the Trinity experienced here below.

This life of heaven is still the Christ-life, for just as we possess a share in Trinitarian life here below as mediated by Christ, and exercise this grace-life as structured by Him, so also in heaven is the mediation of Christ present. In the words of Rahner, "One always sees the Father through Jesus. Just as immediately as this, for the directness of the vision of God is not a denial of the mediatorship of Christ as man."14 And not only does the humanity of Christ unite the blessed to God, but also, in some way, to the whole of creation. This is merely a completion of what is begun here below, namely, the union with Christ in His humanity establishing the Christian in a special relationship with God, with other men, and with the whole of creation. We have a glimpse, therefore, of the fullness of life which members of the heavenly Church possess.

The heavenly Church, as St. Thomas says, is the true Church.15 The Church of this earth and the Church of purgatory are, each in its own way, reaching out in loving hope for the heavenly Jerusalem. Vatican II puts it very simply: "The Church, to which we are called in Christ Jesus, and in which we acquire sanctity through the grace of God, will attain her full perfection only in the glory of heaven."16

The members of the heavenly Church can help us in living our life of grace until we too share its fullness with them. Their power of intercession on our behalf is but another ramification of the communal aspect of Christianity. We are meant to help others grow in Christ. We, in turn, are intended by God to receive aid from others—yes, from members of the heavenly Church, as well as from those with whom we dwell here below.

Not only can we be aided by the saints’ intercession, but the example of the canonized saints can also be of great value to us. They have concretely proved that full holiness is possible. Such an inspiration is of real worth when we are tempted to think that Christian sanctity in its higher degrees is impossible of attainment. Moreover, the canonized saints, in their diversity, teach us that there are many authentic versions of Christian holiness. They can be innovators in showing us that there are numerous possibilities in assimilating the mystery of Christ, although the basic assimilation remains the same for all Christians of all times. In the opinion of Rahner this is one of the chief roles the canonized saints exert in the life of the Church.17

                We have been in the Virgin

                    COME


                Fr. Carter was
                    ordained
                    June 10, 1962 

 

 

 

                R. My heart was made for heaven, I was
                    created in the image and likeness of God,
                    but I have a wounded human nature –
                    there seems to be a tension in this
                    as I live here below –
                    I cannot have complete happiness
                    here below–
                    I was fit for heaven –

                Like Cinderella's glass slipper –
                    she tried and tried to get her
                    prince charming –

                We were made to have the beatific
                    vision for all eternity –

                We are in the state of becoming –
                    our souls are tainted –
                    we see with veiled vision –

                God is revealing about Himself in the
                    Blue Books –

                We need to live in the truth –
                We need to live in dependency to Him
                    in our will –

                Satan tempts men to try to do
                    their will over God's will –
                    how foolish!!!

                We are so far off from even understanding
                    love –
                    We can't explain it –
                    Relationship is experiential – not
                        out of a book entirely –
                        we must know God and
                        we really love Him –
                        we really have a deep
                        intimacy in our heart
                        and soul in love in God –

                Receiving His grace more and more abundantly
                    helps us to be more one in Him –
                    We seek His grace –
                    Go to daily Mass if possible –
                    Spend time before the tabernacle –
                    Pray –
                    Always united to the Masses
                        going on around the world –

                Life is in Him –
   

Colossians 1: 15-29

He is the image of the unseen God,
the first–born of all creation,
for in him were created all things
in heaven and on earth:
everything visible
    and everything invisible,
thrones, ruling forces,
    sovereignties, powers—
all things were created through him
    and for him.
He exists before all things
and in him all things hold together,
and he is the Head of the Body,
that is, the Church.

He is the Beginning,
the first–born from the dead,
so that he should be supreme in every way;
because God wanted all fullness
    to be found in him
and through him
    to reconcile all things to him,
everything in heaven
    and everything on earth,
by making peace through his death
    on the cross.

You were once estranged and of hostile intent through your evil behaviour; now he has reconciled you, by his death and in that mortal body, to bring you before himself holy, faultless and irreproachable—as long as you persevere and stand firm on the solid base of the faith, never letting yourselves drift away from the hope promised by the gospel, which you have heard, which has been preached to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become the servant.

It makes me happy to be suffering for you now, and in my own body to make up all the hardships that still have to be undergone by Christ for the sake of his body, the Church, of which I was made a servant with the responsibility towards you that God gave to me, that of completing God's message, the message which was a mystery hidden for generations and centuries and has now been revealed to his holy people. It was God's purpose to reveal to them how rich is the glory of this mystery among the gentiles; it is Christ among you, your hope of glory: this is the Christ we are proclaiming, admonishing and instructing everyone in all wisdom, to make everyone perfect in Christ. And it is for this reason that I labour, striving with his energy which works in me mightily.

   

Hebrews 1: 1-4

At many moments in the past and by many means, God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets; but in our time, the final days, he has spoken to us in the person of his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things and through whom he made the ages. He is the reflection of God's glory and bears the impress of God's own being, sustaining all things by his powerful command; and now that he has purged sins away, he has taken his seat at the right hand of the divine Majesty on high. So he is now as far above the angels as the title which he has inherited is higher than their own name.

 

Hebrews 10: 10-16

And this will was for us to be made holy by the offering of the body of Jesus Christ made once and for all.

Every priest stands at his duties every day, offering over and over again the same sacrifices which are quite incapable of taking away sins. He, on the other hand, has offered one single sacrifice for sins, and then taken his seat for ever, at the right hand of God, where he is now waiting till his enemies are made his footstool. By virtue of that one single offering, he has achieved the eternal perfection of all who are sanctified. The Holy Spirit attests this to us, for after saying:

No, this is the covenant I will make with them, when those days have come.

the Lord says:

In their minds I will plant my Laws writing them on their hearts,

      

                R. Words do not exist to explain love, my brothers,
                    for the heart and the love of God
                    is inexpressible in words –

                Does a woman forget her baby of her womb?
                    Can a heart really be like Christ &
                        be so self-centered as this?

                    The shadows of darkness crouch
                        around a man's tainted
                        thinking if one is foolish
                        enough to disobey God's law –

                For what does one abandon God's will
                    and for what do they hold onto,
                    many times, with clenched fist
                    that is the very thing that
                    opposes what God wants –

                What of the man knowing the truth and
                    trying to justify what he does
                    that is wrong with a case to prove
                    the wrong thing right –

                Fools, Jesus says, do you think you
                    are fooling God the maker of
                    all things, you do not fool
                    Me – I am the way, the truth
                    and the life –

                A man when warned by a spiritual
                    director can continue in his
                    deception and disobedience to God's will,
                    but he lays a rugged walk of
                    pointy rocks and his feet are trodding
                    in the pain of a path set by
                    his own hands –

                My way I make clear to the man who
                    is docile and working in unity and
                    love in the building of God's Kingdom –

                For whence does a man of lies, stop
                    lying, he lies today and tomorrow
                    satan presses again on him to
                    go astray – the habits are vices
                    and the argumentation to justify
                    his disobedient behavior comes
                    in lies to prove he was not
                    disobedient – one lie, easily leads
                    to more and more lies and

                Satan takes two steps ahead and
                    only one back –
                    he rapidly helps the person
                    choose the pointy, rocky path
                    sewn through blinded eyes and
                    disobedience to their own demise

                And all around them suffer for their
                    disobedience, while they
                    pride themselves on a job they
                    consider well done and
                    they have opposed God with disobedience,
                    deception and lies and hurt so many –
                    the more it goes on they are
                    playing the game of
                    "zigging when they should
                        have zag"

                Opposing and opposing God's will becomes
                    a very bad habit they
                    perform in vindictiveness and blindness –

                Who knows the way of the human heart –
                    God knows the way and man
                        is to listen to God –
                        not proceed like Eve in
                        the garden who opposed
                        God and suffered an awful
                        fate and so too all of the descendants
                        of Adam and Eve were
                        tainted with original sin

                Woe to him who has ears to hear and
                    hears nothing because they are
                    obstinate –

                When the child cried wolf and there was no wolf
                    and men went to his aid, the child
                    laughed because he thought
                    it was funny to watch them jump
                    for him –
                    then the day came when the wolf
                    really came and the child was not
                    listened to because of his
                    tricks and he was eaten up by the wolf –

                So shall you be judged when you
                    sin in willfulness before God –
                    when you cry out
                    Lord, Lord, I will spit you
                    from My mouth because you
                    hurt the Plan for the precious
                    souls I died for and I wanted to
                    reach and you set a bomb
                    in their face instead of serving
                    Me and loving these men –

                Woe to you, you hypocrites –
                Your hearts were made likened to Mine –

                Live to love:
                to give love to God and to your
                    brother –

                It is the will of God the Father –
                    you are truthful – you
                    are servants and handmaids of
                    the Lord

                You are on a journey –

                Do you attest to know the mind
                    of God and the wrath of God for those
                    setting a pit of deception for
                    their brothers –

                Let your 'yes' mean 'yes' and your 'no'
                    mean 'no' anything else is
                    from the evil one

                Where you could have helped the
                    souls – You can choose
                    to tear down those who
                    I sent you to help

 

Matthew 21: 33-43, 45-46

Parable of the wicked tenants

‘Listen to another parable. There was a man, a landowner, who planted a vineyard; he fenced it round, dug a winepress in it and built a tower; then he leased it to tenants and went abroad. When vintage time drew near he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his produce. But the tenants seized his servants, thrashed one, killed another and stoned a third. Next he sent some more servants, this time a larger number, and they dealt with them in the same way. Finally he sent his son to them thinking, "They will respect my son." But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, "This is the heir. Come on, let us kill him and take over his inheritance." So they seized him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?’ They answered, ‘He will bring those wretches to a wretched end and lease the vineyard to other tenants who will deliver the produce to him at the proper time.’ Jesus said to them, ‘Have you never read in the scriptures:

   The stone which the builders rejected
   has become the cornerstone;
   this is the Lord’s doing
   and we marvel at it? 

‘I tell you, then, that the kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.’ 
   When they heard his parables, the chief priests and the scribes realised he was speaking about them, but though they would have liked to arrest him they were afraid of the crowds, who looked on him as a prophet.

  

Prayer for Union with Jesus

Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.

    I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.

    I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.

    When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.

-God's Blue Book, January 17, 1994

     

A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

    Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.

    I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.

    Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.

    Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.

    Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.

    Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.

Through Him, With Him, In Him

 

                June 3, 2013

                About Blue Book 11 - Month of the Sacred Heart

                R. The Christian life essentially consists in God's
                loving self-communication to us with
                our concomitant response to Him in love.
                God is the source of life.

                God gives to man a sharing in His life
                    in baptism.

                And if man remains in the state of
                grace and is baptized the Father,
                    Son and Holy Spirit live in his
                    graced baptized soul.

                Blue Book 11 is about how God wants
                    man to dwell most abundantly in
                    Him.

                At the beginning of Blue Book 11 I had
                    visions of Our Lady of Grace.

                Then I had the 3 great visions –

                The first vision was at the end of Blue Book 10
                    March 26, 1996.
 

                R. I also had intellectual visions –
                    one on Holy Wednesday at Mass –
                    These visions were all
                    accompanied by the bell tolling.

                On this vision I knew how all of our
                    joys and sufferings were to be united
                    to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
                    (the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally
                    made present) The Mass is
                    celebrated around the world –
                  

                    Minute by minute, second by second
                    whatever we do, we are to offer it
                    to the Father united to the Mass for
                    grace to be outpoured for the
                    salvation of souls.

                In this month of the Sacred Heart we need to
                    realize these intentions of
                    His Heart –

 

                R. Man rejected this self-communication
                    of God, in original sin.

                Yet God's desire to give Himself
                    to man was not withdrawn.
                    He determined to save man from
                    his sinfulness and thereafter
                    the Divine communication centered
                    around the promised Redeemer.

                Salvation history preceding the advent
                    of this Redeemer became a preparation
                    for the Redeemer's coming.

                From the time of His coming, salvation
                    history was and is the establishment
                    and continuation of His redemptive
                    work.

June 5, 2013

                R. Living life as God wants us to be –

                A father, sister, brother, priest –
                    living united to Christ in every
                    aspect of our vocation –

                Living the Pascal Mystery of death/resurrection –
                    We die to our own will – we rise in
                        our life of grace –

                    We offer ourselves united to Christ to the
                        Father in the Holy Spirit –

                    The Father gives us Christ back in Communion.

                    The Father accepts the sacrifice as most
                        pleasing and

                    He gives us Jesus in Communion in
                        lavishing love –

                    We are to unite our whole lives to the
                        Mass –

                    We are always offering up our lives
                        to the Father, united to the Masses
                        going on around the world –

                    We must die to the ways not like
                        Christ – control ourselves –
                        die to actions not in the Father's
                        will

                    If they are not controlled the
                        life of grace cannot dominate –
                        the life of grace is living
                        the life of resurrection –
                        the two go hand-in-hand;
                        our Christ-life is the way
                        we rise to new life

                This asceticism means growing in
                    selflessness – going away from
                    self centeredness.

                As we grow in the Christian life – the
                    life of resurrection our focus is
                    more Christ and others;
                    loving Christ and men.

                The more a man goes out of himself –
                    the more he becomes himself –
                    the ideal self as God wants
                    him to be –
                    dying to self and rising in Him!

                The person really growing in that
                    Christ-life is living the
                    Christian virtues of
                    FAITH, HOPE and LOVE

                There is a deep meaningful relationship
                    with God and with men and
                    the rest of creation.

                Our life in Him is in knowing and loving
                    God more and more – This takes prayer,
                    time in relationship with God
                    particularly the Eucharist –
                    being united to the Mass all day.

                We can never sell ourselves short in
                    being open to God's magnificent
                    outpouring of His grace in the
                    Eucharist at Mass and in adoration –
                    God abundantly outpours His
                    grace to us – WOW –
                    His life abundantly fills us –

                Song: I Love You Jesus

                Our life of grace is centered in Trinitarian
                    life of knowing and loving God –
                    of knowing the Mystery of God –
                    It is from this love relationship
                    with God – He operates in
                    us in the world.

                We are to be involved in the becoming
                    of the individual Christian,
                    the Church and the world.

                We are to be Christ to those
                    He sends into our lives.

Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle B —  The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year

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

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

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B — At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". 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

Audio CD - Read by Father Edward J. Carter
$ 10.00  plus postage

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

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #2 - CD. - Suffering: A Source of Life - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. Fr. Carter knew suffering that year. His voice is so powerful as he read each Newsletter from his heart and soul. "Every man has his own share in the redemption. 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
