“My child, watch and pray, then pray some more! Ready your lamps, trim the wicks and do not let apathy extinguish your flame. Instead, keep the light of faith burning brightly so that in the darkness the lost will find their way home. You do not know what is coming. Only grace can help you, but I have poured out grace abundantly; those who ask will receive, shaken down and overflowing. Open your hands and I will fill them. Then, knowing there is no end to what I give, go therefore and do the same. Let grace spill from your abundance to assist those who do not know how to ask. My child, do not tire of praying for the lost. Many are those who have prayed for you. In gratitude for the mercy shown to you, bring to my merciful heart each soul and especially those most in need of my mercy.”

Lord Jesus, this worthless sinner has much to be thankful for. By your grace I offer you all those whose hearts are far from you and all the lukewarm souls that anger you so much. Jesus I trust in you. Save souls! Amen.

“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.

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!

“My beloved, the day of the Lord will be terrible indeed! God’s justice against the wickedness of this age will leave no stone unturned. All will be revealed, and each offense accounted for. Those who have recourse to my mercy, however, have nothing to fear. My limitless mercy is an ocean—those who have recourse to my mercy, their sin will be as a grain of sand in that ocean. My child, by your prayers and sacrifices, bring countless souls into the ocean of my mercy. Stand in the breach and immerse them so that when the day comes, they will accept the great gift of mercy with humble gratitude. Those who cling with pride to their sin will feel the full brunt of justice. My child—pray for souls!”

Lord Jesus, in the Divine Will I offer all my prayers for souls, having placed my every need in our Mother’s Immaculate Heart. May every breath I take be a prayer for mercy. Jesus I trust in you to grant the grace of conversion to all souls, especially those in most need of your mercy. Amen.

1 John 4:13 This is how we know that we remain in him and he in us, that he has given us of his Spirit.

“My beloved, what more do you need as proof of my love and presence? Enter into the Breath of Love that flows between the Father and the Son. This never-ending stream of love is waiting to receive you if you but desire to live in the love of the Father and the Son. You do not know and cannot imagine the magnitude of this gift. Accept it with humble gratitude, as you can never hope to merit it. Our Mother came closest to meriting this love and yet even she needed grace to receive grace. It was her abject , perfect humility that was her merit, her total acknowledgment of God’s power at work in her. Ponder these things as she did. Be small and filled with gratitude as she was. This is the path to perfection, a path she walked flawlessly.”

Jesus in Mary, how can I thank you for such a magnitude of generosity? Blessed Trinity of love I offer you the perfect gratitude of the Blessed Mother for this unimaginable gift.

“My child, that is a precious offering. Make it often.”

Jesus in Mary I worship you. Amen.

1 John 4:9 In this way the love of God was revealed to us: God sent his only Son into the world so that we might have life through him.

“Oh, my beloved, if you knew the magnitude of this gift, you would never stop praising God. If you fully appreciated the sacrifice it took, first of all for the Son of God to become man, and then to submit himself fully to the will of those creatures God had predestined to participate in this plan of unimaginable love for humanity, you would be overcome with gratitude. You would want to give everything to your Lord; you would never hold anything back. My child, you will never fully understand in this life, but do not let that stop you from giving all to him who gave all for you. Child, whatever comes, give thanks to God, and offer all to him in love and gratitude.”

Heavenly Father, I give you all thanks and praise for the gift of your Son to aching humanity. Jesus, Beloved, you gave everything for us. Help me Lord, to hold nothing back. May you be forever glorified in all I do and say. Jesus I love you. Amen.

“Beloved child, do not neglect thanksgiving. Let your gratitude to your loving Father be the wind that lifts your sails. You will see that with each expression of praise and gratitude, you will progress in the spiritual life. And not only in the spiritual life, but through gratitude,many more graces are won, both temporal and spiritual. Be always ready to thank your Abba in all circumstances. Then you will know true joy.”

Perfect Abba of my heart, generous, just, and merciful, I give you thanks and praise in the Divine Will in the name of all, for the beauty of creation, the mercy of redemption and the grace of sanctification. With the Gloriana* I sing: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God almighty! Alleluia!

“My child, the thief takes; I give. There is nothing that I lack so I only give. Let my followers imitate me. What they receive from me, let them generously give. If I find a conduit of my generosity I will not hold back. That person will know what it means to give with the hand of God. In living to give, that person will not hold back anything, not even his own life. Child, ponder these things.”

Lord Jesus help me and all your people to imitate your generosity, that the world will know that you have sent us and glorify your name forever. Amen.

“My child, never underestimate the power of gratitude. Your merciful Father showers blessings on the world in glorious abundance each moment. How many return even a small thanks to him? Look at your own life and see how often you have taken for granted God’s abundant gifts. Ponder this well my child, and let the gratitude you offer from here on, in some way make up for the times you have been ungrateful.”

My Lord and my God, have mercy on me a sinner. I offer this prayer in the Divine Will so that in me you may find all souls thanking you for all your abundant blessings. Merciful, generous Father, I offer you the gratitude of the Gloriana* wrapped in the love of Jesus and Mary. I multiply it to the infinite and give it to you in the name of everyone in all times and places for all the amazing gifts you shower on us always, most especially the “fiats” of creation, redemption and sanctification, as well as Mary’s “Fiat”. Thank you for life and faith, truth, beauty, joy and all the ways you reveal yourself to us. Lord I love you! Alleluia! Amen.

(*Gloriana: The angels and saints in perfect communion with the Blessed Trinity; the perfect unity of heaven.)

Blessed Mother, I love and thank you for your merciful kindness in your care for souls, especially those God has given me to pray for. I ask you to thank Jesus on my behalf as only you can.

BVM: “My little child, your Lord has accepted your gratitude offered in a heartfelt way, wrapped in my own love for you and for Him. This has greatly pleased Jesus who seldom enough receives the gratitude of his children. Enter into the Divine Will so that you may extend your gratitude in the name of all. It is what Jesus desires and makes possible.”

Lord Jesus, perfect beauty and majesty, I enter into the Divine Will and offer to you in the name of everyone the gratitude of the Gloriana* and the love of your Mother, for your unimaginable mercy and love for us unworthy sinners. Be near us, O Lord as we place all our trust in you! Jesus I love you. I love you. Amen.
