Love Crucified

Let us enter this season of Lent, a time of mourning, a time to delve into a deep purification of heart and sincere repentance before God. Only by coming to know our true misery, can we begin to be transformed more perfectly in Love. Let us not just pray the Stations of the Cross, but like Mary, live the Stations as ONE with Jesus, in His agony, His cry, His silence, and in His humility.

SUMMARY

We are invited to ponder each station of the cross during lent, living them with Jesus. The first station is used as an example.

Lourdes also touches upon:

1. What is pure love?
2. “Mortify yourself in silence.”
3. Examination of Conscience

Based on her teaching, "Tenderness in Mercy" (Oct. 5, 2017). Our authentic manhood and womanhood are restored as we begin to live #88 from the Simple Path, in which Jesus teaches us to love as He loves.

“FIRST FRUITS”

The Saints of the End Times

Revelations 14:1-5 

Cenacle 11/21/19

11/1/19  All Saints Day

My little one, the holy saints of God – past, present, and future – are one in God. They are the firstfruits as one with Me, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. These souls at the designated time will rise up to establish the Kingdom of God on earth. These are the souls you are helping to form through The Simple Path to Union I have been leading you through. This formation for the saints of the end times will be blessed and protected by Abba, our Father who desires to be glorified and loved by all His creation… God Himself has come to earth through His little mustard seed to form and raise up His saints of the end times to fight the great battle… 

• The Lamb and the 144,000 – Revelations 14:1-5

Then I looked, and there was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion! And with him were one hundred forty-four thousand who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder; the voice I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps, 3 and they sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders. No one could learn that song except the one hundred forty-four thousand who have been redeemed from the earth. 4 It is these who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are virgins; these follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They have been redeemed from humankind as firstfruits for God and the Lamb, 5 and in their mouth, no lie was found; they are blameless.

•  “first fruits”

 – Leviticus 2:14 

   If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to the Lord, you shall bring as the grain offering of your first fruits coarse new grain from fresh ears, parched with fire.

–  Leviticus 23:20 

    –The priest shall raise them with the bread of the firstfruits as an elevation offering before the Lord, together with the two lambs; they shall be holy to the Lord for the priest.

  – 1 Corinthians 15:20

   –  But in fact, Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have died.

–  2 Thessalonians 2:13

    –But we must always give thanks to God for you, brothers and sisters beloved by the Lord because God chose you as the firstfruits for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and through belief in the truth.

  – James 1:18

   – In fulfillment of his own purpose, he gave us birth by the word of truth, so that we would become a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

–  James 3:17

    –But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without a trace of partiality or hypocrisy.

·       This formation for the saints of the end times… … God Himself has come to earth through His little mustard seed to form and raise up His saints of the end times to fight the great battle

–  St. Louis De Montfort” Toward the end of the world, Almighty God and His Holy Mother, will raise up great saints who will surpass in holiness most other saints as much as the cedars of Lebanon tower above little shrubs... Mary has produced, together with the Holy Ghost, the greatest thing which has been or ever will be a God-Man, and she will consequently produce the greatest saints that there will be at the end of time. The formation and education of the great saints who shall come at the end of the world are reserved for her. For it is only that singular and miraculous Virgin who can produce, in union with the Holy Ghost, singular and extraordinary things. They shall be great and exalted before God in sanctity, superior to all other creatures by their lovely zeal, and so well sustained with God’s assistance that, with the humility of their heel, in union with Mary, they shall crush the head of the devil and cause Jesus Christ to triumph”.

28. My Mother’s Pierced Heart Was Fused to Mine —Diary of a MOC.  P.84

The piercing with the lance created your passage into My Heart. My Heart was opened for all to enter with the piercing of the lance. My mother received this same piercing in her heart and suffered the pain and sorrow I could no longer suffer. This piercing fused our hearts together as ONE for all eternity. This is why Mary is the gate to enter My Love Crucified and My Heart. The Holy Spirit lifts you from My feet into the passage in My side. It is in this passage created by the spear that you are perfected in My virtues. 

Your soul needs to be clothed in the virtues of true humility and purity before entering the furnace of My Heart. It is the work of the Holy Spirit, with My mother, that forms these virtues in your heart and soul. 

Humility is acquired through constant knowledge of your misery and My mercy and love. You received the gift of knowledge at My feet, and you must always maintain yourself wrapped in this gift.

Purity of mind, heart, soul, and body is attained as you come in contact with Me, Who am all pure and holy. My mother is all purity, and it is she who will dress you in the white gown of purity.

She will cleanse you, little by little, of all the mud that remains on you after I pulled you out of the quicksand of your misery with the wood of My Cross. Through humility and purity, you will quickly attain perfection in all the other virtues if you persevere in prayer. (03/04/11).

PURE INCENSE

The prayer of the saints

Revelation 8

•  Only the Lamb (Jesus) is worthy to break the seven seals and open the scroll that contains the revelation of God’s rescue of His people and the establishment of His kingdom. It was the Lamb who accomplished it at the Cross.  

•  The response to the breaking of the seals and the revelation of the Lamb’s victory is to adore silence – as during the consecration at Mass.

•  Seven angels prepare to blow trumpets: The trumpet blasts herald the events that will follow.  (Think of Jericho’s wall coming down when the trumpets were blown)

•  But before the angels blow the trumpets, 

•  The saints’ prayers are offered before God’s throne in a censer. The saints are participants in the victory of the Lamb because they gave their lives with Him.

Rev 7:14 “These are the ones who have survived the time of great distress; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” Now they are like pure incense pleasing to God.

•  The prayer of the saints have a powerful effect upon the earth (thunder, rumblings, earthquake)

•  We are called to be among those saints. While not all shedding blood, we can share in the interior martyrdom of the Lord. 

39. Martyrdom of the Heart —Diary of a MOC.  

The martyrdom of the heart is the martyrdom of suffering with Love and for Love. My daughter, if you could only understand the fruit of the martyrdom of suffering, you would desire nothing else on earth. The hidden life of suffering with Love and for Love is of far greater worth than great and small works tainted with human recognition. Believe in the hidden force contained in the martyrdom of the heart. This is the purest fragrance of love that has the power to conquer the enemies of God. (11/9/12)

•  Like the prophet Ezekiel (2:9–3:3) and John (Rev 10:9)), we are called to “eat” the scroll: to assimilate the scroll (What Jesus has revealed, the power of the Cross) until we become one with Him and become witnesses to the truth it contains even though it may be bitter before it tastes like honey.

•  Likewise, to live our covenant fully in Love Crucified, the Simple Path, pg. XVIII tells us: “You have to “eat” The Simple Path like Ezekiel ate the scroll in the presence of God.”

•  Prayer is: Silence, praise, “eating” the Word. 

—  Prayer is not only words: our life must be a prayer. 

— It is a new life in Christ, giving our lives to the Father as victims of love

—  This is to be poor in Spirit. 

—  Faithful during trials

—  Believe in the power of our prayer because Christ continues His work through us.

   —The process of living the Path is to achieve this. 

“PURE INCENSE” 

The Power of LC Hidden Sufferings

Revelations 8:3-5

Cenacle 11/14/19

Þ    Revelations 8: 1-5

When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.

3 Another angel with a golden censer came and stood at the altar; he was given a great quantity of incense to offer with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar that is before the throne. 4 And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel. 5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth; and there were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.

·       11/3/19

After I read Rev. 8, Jesus spoke these words:

My little one, much will have to take place on earth before the establishment of My Eucharistic Reign. You (plural) are My saints of the end times united as one with the holy saints in heaven. Because My saints on earth are united to My sacrifice of love in your abandonment to suffer with Me, your prayers are powerful before the throne of Abba. Know, My little one, that your prayers are continuously before the throne of our Father as pure incense. He delights in your prayers, and He hears the cry of the poor. The poor are not only the poor of body but also the poor of spirit – those who have died to themselves so that I can live in them and through them. Much affliction must take place on earth because of the rebelliousness of the human heart, but God, in His infinite mercy and goodness, will bless the prayers of His saints –past, present, and future -- and establish His Kingdom on earth. Be at peace with complete abandonment to the God who loves you and listens to the cry of the poor. Persevere in your own crucifixion for the glory of God and the establishment of His Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. Go in peace to be My Light in the world.

·       Pope Benedict XVI: Simple Path p. 275

We see in this image that God is not indifferent to our prayers; He intervenes and makes his power felt, and His voice heard on the earth. He makes the systems of Evil tremble and disrupts them.

·       Messages to Love Crucified

11/24/08

The prayers of the *Mothers of the Cross are heard by My Father in Heaven. They are a sweet fragrance that reaches heaven. These mothers are My Father’s white lilies. They have been purified in My blood... Believe, My daughter, believe.”

8/23/10  #97, p.278 The Simple Path

But your most perfect prayer is your pure suffering united to Me and My Mother. The prayer of pure suffering is the sweetest fragrance that reaches and delights the Heart of our Father. This is also the prayer that produces an abundance of fruit.

11/9/12 #39, p. 139 The Simple Path

The martyrdom of the heart is the martyrdom of suffering with Love and for Love. My daughter, if you could only understand the fruit of the martyrdom of suffering, you would desire nothing else on earth. The hidden life of suffering with Love and for Love is of far greater worth than great and small works tainted with human recognition. Believe in the hidden force contained in the martyrdom of the heart. This is the purest fragrance of love that has the power to conquer the enemies of God.

2/25/13 Remain with Me — prayer of suffering, time of mourning.

My little one, we have become ONE. I live in you and you in Me. You feel My sorrows and participate in My tears. Remain with Me mourning the death of My Bride, the Church. Collect My tears as one with Mary and present them in the chalice of your heart to our Father. .. know that the Father hears you and blesses your every prayer, for you have found favor with Him. (Rev 8:3-5) This is a time of mourning.

(I asked the Lord what he wants me to do because there are still such few victim souls and no army of holy priests....)

Trust always in the triumph of My Cross. My little one, I am alone, as if again, in Gethsemane. I desire your constant companionship in My sorrows.

(I told the Lord that He has Mary and all the angels and saints with Him...)

Yes, but your pure prayer of suffering as ONE with Me is needed now for My Church. (Rev 8:3-5) This prayer is of greater fecundity than of any works ...Remain with Me to collect My tears of sorrow during this time of mourning. Be at peace; I am your God.
