I will lead my sheep through the raging waters to the restful waters…

Isaiah 51:11 Those whom the LORD has ransomed will return and enter Zion singing, crowned with everlasting joy;they will meet with joy and gladness, sorrow and mourning will flee.

“My child, be consoled. If for a time you suffer trials—even great trials—know that your Lord is the God of all consolation. I have prepared a banquet for my people, a Sunday feast, a Sabbath rest. Believe in my goodness always. Trust that I will lead my sheep through the raging waters to the restful waters. I have promised and I will do it, says the Lord. My child, the time is very near when the faith of many will be tested. Cling to my Mother for she will not let her children be devoured by the dragon.”

Jesus in Mary I trust in you. I believe, hope, and trust in you and ask pardon for all who do not believe, hope, and trust in you. Blessed Mother, keep us safe under your mantle. I cling to you and bring with me all those you have given me to pray for. Amen.

There can be no end to the destruction and darkness until truth is enthroned in men’s hearts…

Wisdom 1:16 It was the wicked who with hands and words invited death, considered it a friend, and pined for it, and made a covenant with it, because they deserve to be in its possession.

“My child, the wages of sin is death. And death begets death—it cannot beget life. So you see the downward spiral begun at the Fall of man but magnified exponentially in this age. The evil one, the prince of death, knows how short his time is on earth. Do you feel the frenzy with which he and his minions are going about their destructive business in this age?”

Lord the weight of darkness and the looming chaos are hard to miss.

“Yet my child, so few are aware. Many walk in the darkness oblivious to the danger. Pray for light my child, pray for true illumination and the illumination that comes from truth. There can be no end to the destruction and darkness until truth is enthroned in men’s hearts.”

O my Jesus, Lord of Truth, Light, and Life, I implore your mercy to let the brilliant light of truth shine for all to see. Let it illumine the darkest places so that those imprisoned by sin and death may walk in the light of life and truth. Fulfill your word O Lord: “The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light.”* Come Lord Jesus—maranatha! Come!

(*Isaiah 9:1)

Many are blind to the signs; many are blind to their sins…

Wisdom 19:13 And the punishments came upon the sinners only after forewarnings from the violence of the thunderbolts. For they justly suffered for their own misdeeds…

“My child, can anyone be surprised at the consequences that will befall the human race on account of sin? Yet many are blind to the signs; many are blind to their sins. Let those who pray do so with renewed fervor. Let them go into mourning over what is coming to the earth. Is it time for festivity when suffering and calamity surround you? My child, subdue your life as in the days of old when they put on sackcloth and sat in ashes. The destruction due to sin will be the cause of many tears. The only joy will be that which my faithful ones have in the hope of the kingdom. My child, the trial has been shortened because of the prayers and sacrifices of my faithful ones. Keep your eyes on the hope that is contained in the resurrection. One can only climb the hill to Calvary one step at a time. The resurrection awaits. Keep this thought firmly before you as you carry the cross to the crucifixion.”

Jesus in Mary, give us your strength, courage, and hope as we climb the hill to Calvary with you. Keep before our eyes always the joy and hope of the resurrection. Jesus we trust in you and offer you the gratitude of the Gloriana wrapped in the love of the Blessed Mother for having shortened the time of trial. Help us to do more for the sake of the souls you love so much. Amen.

Can I continue to look upon injustice and not act?

Micah 2:3 Therefore thus says the LORD: Behold, I am planning against this race an evil from which you shall not withdraw your necks; nor shall you walk with head high, for it will be a time of evil.

“Beloved child, can I continue to look upon injustice and not act? How long must my patience be tested and tried? Child, I tell you the time is short. This generation has brought a great destruction upon its own head. My laws will not be mocked! This generation is allowing sin free reign by its refusal to acknowledge that sin exists. If only my prodigal children would realize the destruction they call down on innocent and guilty alike. There is much to come. But, my child, the window of opportunity is not quite shut. Use all the tools I have given you. Do not wast a small moment, but give everything to me and I will make use of it in the plan of mercy. Oh my child—pray!”

Jesus I trust in you! In the Divine Will, I offer you all—my every moment, my every breath, even my weakness. Heavenly Father I offer it all to you in reparation through Jesus in Mary. Holy Spirit come and renew the face of the earth! Amen.

They revile and defile my Bride in the same way my torturers reviled and defiled me…

Jude 1:17-18 But you, beloved, remember the words spoken beforehand by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, for they told you, “In (the) last time there will be scoffers who will live according to their own godless desires.”

“My child, can you see around you the fulfillment of this prophecy? They scoff at my laws to which nature itself testifies, and they exalt their perversions. They revile and defile my Bride in the same way my torturers reviled and defiled me. Oh my child! What hardship is coming on account of these sins! Pray very hard for conversions and do not stop—even as you work*. Let each moment of your day be consecrated to the Immaculate for the sake of souls. In this way, not a moment is wasted. Then offer the prayers I have brought to your mind when duties allow. Child pray! I am with all my children in this late hour.”

Jesus be near! Mary, please do not leave us! I pray and pray for conversions through the Divine Mercy and St. Gertrude’s prayer and through the consecration of my day to the Immaculate. Mercy O Lord! Have mercy! Amen.

(*I do not take this to mean that our prayer should in any way distract us from our duties, but that in consecrating our day to the Immaculate, our duties become prayer. Then when it is possible, we add the prayers our Lord has highlighted on these pages.)

Let the Blood of my Son continue its work on earth through you…

Joel 2:17 Between the porch and the altar let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep, and say, “Spare, O LORD, your people, and make not your heritage a reproach, with the nations ruling over them! Why should they say among the peoples, ‘Where is their God?’”

“My beloved, am I deaf to the pleas of my people? I tell you I am not. Offer the sacrifice of the Mass for conversions. I tell you, even if I could turn away from your supplications, I could never turn away from the perfect sacrifice offered for souls. Let this perfect offering call down anew the mercy of your God who longs for all to be saved. My child, I have given you a great weapon against the enemy. Do not let it go unused, but let the Blood of my Son continue its work on earth through you. Do not delay! The time is short and many, many souls are in grave danger.”

Father, Son, and Spirit, I thank you for this timely reminder. In your mercy, multiply all our offerings, most especially the offering of the Mass, in the Divine Will, for the sake of the souls you love so much. Jesus we trust in you!

(Afterthought: As I was thinking about the best way to offer the most Masses for souls, this prayer came to my mind. It is St. Gertrude’s prayer for the souls in Purgatory, but it also includes prayers for the conversion of sinners. I added the parts in bold to the original prayer, begging St. Gertrude’s pardon. I’m sure she won’t mind.

Eternal Father, in the Divine Will, I offer you the most precious blood of your Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in Purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal Church, for those in my own home and within my own family and especially for the conversion of a great many sinners through the Immaculate Heart of our most Blessed Mother.

Thank you Jesus for multiplying the labor of the few for the good of the many as you did with the loaves and fishes! Your goodness and mercy are amazing, infinite, and beyond our comprehension. I offer you the gratitude of the Gloriana wrapped in the love of the Blessed Mother in thanks. Alleluia! Thanks be to God!

New page…

Dear Readers,

With the permission of my spiritual director, I have added a new page, called “On private revelation” to my blog (see left column). It is the foreword he wrote for my book and is a solid teaching on private revelation and its place in our journey of faith. Please pray for Fr. Ray and for all priests.

God bless you all.

Much depends on the number of souls who turn to me with contrite hearts…

Joel 2:12-13 Yet even now, says the LORD, return to me with your whole heart, with fasting, and weeping, and mourning; rend your hearts, not your garments, and return to the LORD, your God. For gracious and merciful is he, slow to anger, rich in kindness, and relenting in punishment.

“My beloved, even now, at this late hour, if my children turn to me with fasting and weeping, throwing themselves on my mercy, contrite and sorrowful, it would mitigate to a great degree the chastisement due to sin. What sin has purchased I would refund for the sake of those many repentant hearts. That is why, my child, I call you to fast and pray for souls. Have you done enough yet? Can you say that you have? My child, much depends on the number of souls who turn to me with contrite hearts. Pray, pray, pray for conversions. There are too few praying! Too many will not be converted. Time is short. Give me every moment of your life to do with as I please. I will use it to purchase more souls. This is a great mystery, tied to the gift of free will. Give me all, my child. Hold nothing back. Your God implores you. Do not refuse, for much depends on those who will abandon all to the Lord of Life.”

Jesus, Lord of Life, take my miserable offering and use it as you wish magnified in the love and merits of our Mother. I have so little to offer, but I give it to you. In your mercy receive it as you received the offering of the widow with her small coins. Jesus I trust in you. Save souls!

Cling to the robes of my Mother, for she will keep you safe from the lies and tricks of the enemy…

Revelation 13:3 I saw that one of its heads seemed to have been mortally wounded, but this mortal wound was healed. Fascinated, the whole world followed after the beast.

“My beloved child, do not be deceived! Much will astonish you in the days and months to come. Remain steadfast in the faith. Cling to the robes of my Mother, for she will keep you safe from the lies and tricks of the enemy. Many souls will be deceived. Much persecution is to come to those who will not worship the beast. Pray my child! Cling to the rosary. Fast and pray for souls. There is much to come, much to endure before the resurrection and the Sabbath rest. Trust in me and cling to my Mother. This alone is your safety.”

Jesus I trust in you. I cling to the robes of our Mother and implore your mercy on the whole world. May the light of truth shine forever! Jesus I trust in you. Amen.

It is offered free because only my Son can afford the cost of your salvation…

Luke 1:46-47 And Mary said: “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior. . . .”

BVM: “My child, listen to my Son who only wishes that his children would return his love and live with him forever. Sadly, tragically, many today reject his free gift, grossly underestimating the value of the gift. This is the pearl of great price. Sell all you have, but you will never have enough to purchase it, for its value is far beyond any created thing, and indeed beyond all created things together. It is offered free because only my Son can afford the cost of your salvation. He alone is worthy to purchase souls. The only value souls have is found in Jesus. And yet so few realize what minuscule particles they are apart from him. But in him—oh, my child! If you could see the soul that loves my Son and accepts the gift of salvation with humble gratitude—my child, you would die a thousand happy deaths! There is no beauty in creation to compare with it! So count as nothing all that hinders you, all that distracts you, all that bars your way to Christ. Love him alone, and all shall be more perfect than you ever dreamed possible.”

Blessed Mother I thank you for this beautiful reminder of all that I am not—apart from Christ I am nothing! Jesus I thank you with the love and gratitude of your mother for the free gift of my salvation. Words cannot express it; I leave it to her to do so. Alleluia!
