His Holiness Pope Paul VI has confirmed on 14 October, 1966, the decree of the Sacred Congregation for the propagation of the Faith, under number 58/16 (A.A.S.), permitting the publication of writings about supernatural apparitions, even if they do not have a 'nihil obstat' from ecclesiastical authorities. In relation to Vassula Rydén, H.E. Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, stated (Guadalajara, Mexico 1996) "You may continue to promote her writings"; he requests only that one is discerning. He concluded by saying "Do not stifle the Spirit, do not despise prophesy, but test everything; hold on to what is good".

I your father, I your spouse, I your home, I your nurse, I your root, I your foundation. Whatever your want, I will be. You will lack nothing. I will work for you. For I came to serve and not to be served. I will be your friend and your host, your head and your brother, your sister and your mother. I will be everything. Only be intimate with Me! I will be poor for you, errant for you, on the Cross for you, in the Tomb for you. Above I plead the Father for your sake, on earth I became intercessor to the Father for your sake. You are everything for Me, brother, co-heir, friend and member. What more do you want? — St. John Chrysostom
INTRODUCTION The Trinitarian Spirituality of True Life in God
by Vassula Rydén Rhodes, Greece, May 1997
Jesus said: "without Me you will live like the world, with Me you will live like in Heaven; without Me your traits will become those of the world, but with Me your traits will be Mine; remain in Me; rooted in Me, never neglect your gift, have Me as first and grant Me your time;" (20.5.94)
What is the Trinitarian Spirituality of True Life in God? First and foremost, True Life in God is to be eager to meet God and to get to know Him, the way He really is; it is to open ourselves and have a special and intimate relationship with Him. Without this intimacy, we cannot approach Him. He will always be remote, far away somewhere "up there" and from such a distance we 2
cannot love Him. What He asks of us today is a dialogue with Him, a simple heart-to-heart conversation, including Him in our daily life, treating Him like our best friend, nevertheless never forgetting that He is Holy. True Life in God is to learn to pray without ceasing. To pray without ceasing is to live in perfect union with God and in God, thus living daily the "we, us" that Jesus taught us. It is to learn to have this heart-toheart conversation with God. To be in constant prayer is the first commandment, for it is the fruit of our love for God, desiring to be with Him always. This love will gush out from our hearts into the hearts of our neighbours, loving them, which is the second commandment. For this, we have to be willing to offer God our will daily and to abandon ourselves entirely to Him, so we can live with our feet on the ground and with our heart and our soul in heaven. Jesus does not like the lukewarm. He desires a sincere heart. If we do not abandon ourselves entirely to God, it is as if we tied His Hands. His will cannot be done to us. We must root ourselves fully in Him. To be rooted in God means to become like Him, to imitate Jesus; it is to love God and to love our neighbour. We cannot speak about Peace and Unity without being rooted in God. 3
True Life in God is to expand God's Kingdom and make the Triune God known. It is to reveal the real images of God our Father so that our spirit will call out to Him "Abba!" True Life in God is to put into practice the act of charity and love that delights God. Jesus said: "In the Day of Judgment you will be judged according to the measure of your love." True Life in God is to be witnesses of the Most High, witnesses of God's Love, so as to tell the world that although they have forgotten God, God in His faithful Love and Mercy has never forgotten them and that even if we are the most wretched in the world, His Love for us has no end. Our Eternal Father said,"… My child, you are not Fatherless; I Am who I Am is your Father; you are not homeless, My Kingdom, My Splendour and the Truth are your home; you are not restrained from food, for I, with My Own Hand fill your mouth from My Mouth with My Word; (…) My favour is upon you and so everything I do in these days is for the salvation of your generation;..." (26.2.95)
True Life in God means to allow the Holy Spirit to transfigure our soul into a heaven, so that he becomes the Light of our eyes, the motive of our being, the movement of our heart, our laughter, our joy and the kingly adornment of our soul; our hymn to the Hymn and our amen to the Amen. We must die to ourselves and to our passions which obstruct Him from rendering our souls imperishable, full of grace, and into a heaven to glorify God. True Life in God is to remain faithful to Mother Church and the Tradition. It is to offer God prayers from the heart, sacrifices, penance and fasting. True Life in God is to become the child of the Mother of God since Her Immaculate Heart is never separated from the Sacred Heart of Jesus, but is in perfect union with His. True Life in God is to visit the Blessed Sacrament and be with Jesus. We should ask the Holy Spirit to grant us the Spirit of Piety to learn to adore the Divine Sacrament and to observe with fear what is real Flesh and real Food, what is real Blood and real Drink.
Jesus said: "…lean on Me and I shall guide you to My Tabernacle where I am waiting for you day and night, I offer you Myself every day,(…) all what I need is Love, Love and Adoration …" (1.6.89) True Life in God is to pray for unity and for unifying the dates of Easter, since this is the great desire of our Lord Jesus Christ. We can be the first fruits of unity by assembling and praying together in one heart and one voice. Jesus said: "I need humility and love, and the conversion of your hearts to be the foundation of your unity." Let the motto of True Life in God be:
Repay Evil With Love
Because – as Jesus tells us – love is the root of the tree of virtues. Without that root the tree has no virtue, no fruit. "The Heart of the Lord is Love and the heart of the Law is based on Love." It is written: "Do not judge." The tongue is the worst of all! For the tongue that receives the Holy Communion is the same that judges, criticizes, blasphemes. So Jesus says: "I would like you to fast, but also with your lips!" 6
Jesus tells us how He would like us to pray:
Jesus said: "I will ask you all to learn how to pray when you pray, pray from your heart, I need prayers that come from your heart and not from your lips; do not pray quickly, recollect yourselves and pray slower, looking at Me, I am Present, let your prayers reach Me; learn to be in constant prayer, by this I do not mean to have you on your knees endless hours, no, but just in remembering My Presence, you will be in constant prayer; your minds will be lifted towards Me; all that you say, or do, or think will be for Me I need devotion and fidelity, love Me without measure and desire Me; I am your Saviour and Consoler, so come to Me without hesitating, I will console you all, I will give you hope, so do not diminish your prayers and sacrifices, increase them by being in constant prayer ..." (16.12.88)
Guidance for "laying on of hands"
Pope John Paul II has written in his book, My Vocation, that the 'laying on of hands" as practiced by the primitive church continues to be a genuine sign of the apostolic mission of the Church, passed on through the 7
Holy Spirit and demonstrated in Paul's disciple, Timothy. The Holy Father states that for authenticity, the "laying on of hands" should be accompanied by prayer, meditation, and ardent petition to God for the gifts of the Holy Spirit: Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Fortitude, Knowledge, Piety, and the Fear of the Lord. He quotes St. Thomas Aquinas who wrote that through the gifts of the Holy Spirit, a person's spirit becomes sensitive to the light of God, the light of real knowledge, and the inspiration of love. In Acts of the Apostles 8: 14-17, we encounter this event: "When the Apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them, and they went down there and prayed for the Samaritans to receive the Holy Spirit, for as yet He had not come down on any of them: they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then they laid hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit."
Meditation from the Father
"I am a God full of pity and My Heart can be touched; come and learn: – in the morning sow your seed of love; – at noon sow your seed of peace; – in the evening sow your seed of reconciliation; then go and collect your harvest and offer it to Me, your Father in Heaven, and I will tell you: "in your graciousness, My child, you have obtained your reward in heaven;" from above I call to you all: "come! come and make peace with Me, your God and you will have My Blessings; return to Me and you will live forever;" (18.6.94)
True Life in God Prayer Meeting
Because the Holy Spirit is our true Guide, prayer meeting structure should remain responsive to the needs of the participants and the urgings of the Spirit.

We begin with silent recollection to bring ourselves into the awareness of God's Holy Presence. We reinvite Jesus into our hearts asking Him to unite our spirit with His Holy Spirit thus enabling us to truly pray from the heart. In unison, we open our prayer meeting with the following prayers. In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
O Heavenly King, the Advocate the Spirit of Truth, omnipresent and within everything, the treasure of the simple hearted, and the giver of life, come, and pitch Your Tent within us, cleanse us from our stains and may Your holiness save our souls, O Most Pure. Amen. — Orthodox Prayer 12
Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, Have mercy on us1 (say three times, making the sign of the Cross) — Orthodox Prayer
1 This prayer is used at the beginning of the Mass in the Orthodox Church and also to begin individual prayer. It has been used since the beginning of the Church.
Five mysteries are meditated while praying. Monday & Saturday—Joyful Mysteries Thursday—Luminous Mysteries Tuesday & Friday—Sorrowful Mysteries Wednesday & Sunday—Glorious Mysteries Holding the Crucifix, begin with: The Apostle's Creed I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, died and was buried. He descended to the 13
dead; on the third day He arose again; He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right Hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. On the first bead: The 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. On the next three beads: (for greater faith, hope & love) Hail Mary Hail Mary, full of Grace, the Lord is with Thee; blessed art Thou among women and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death. Amen. 14
On the single bead: Glory be Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
Prayer to St Michael St. Michael, the Archangel, defend us in the Day of Battle, be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, O Prince of the heavenly Host, by the Power of God, cast into hell Satan, and all the other evil spirits who prowl through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

you all belong to My House; since I have bought My House with My Own Blood and I have shed every drop of My Blood for everyone ... you are My House2... " (20.1.01)

The Luminous Mysteries
(cf. Apostolic Letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae, John Paul II, 16.10.2002)
1. The Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan Scripture Meditation: Here, Christ descends into the waters, the innocent one who became "sin" for our sake. (2 Cor 5:21). The heavens open wide and the voice of the Father declares Him the beloved Son (Mt 3:13-17), while the Spirit descends on Him to invest Him with the mission which He is to carry out. Meditation from True Life in God messages: Jesus says: "to what can you compare My Sacred Heart? to a Fountain that makes the gardens fertile? yes, so if any man is thirsty, let him come to Me! let the man come and drink; My Heart is a well of living water; come and immerse yourself in those streams1 that flow out from My Sacred Heart;" (28.11.96, 11th anniversary of True Life in God)
Jesus was speaking about His Spirit
On the single bead: Our Father... On the next ten beads: Hail Mary... 23
Recite each prayer once: Glory be... O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those who are in most need of Your Mercy. Amen.

2. Jesus gives His Sign at Cana Scripture Meditation: The first of the signs, given at Cana, when Christ changes water into wine and opens the hearts of the disciples to faith, thanks to the intervention of Mary, the first among believers. (Jn 2:1-12) Meditation from True Life in God messages: The Father speaks: "find your comfort in Her embrace and in those same arms that carried My Son through the desert into Egypt; honour the Mother who honoured Me with Her graciousness, why, have I not highly favoured Her? I have done great things for the Woman clothed with the sun, so that from that day for24
ward when My Spirit covered Her, all generations would call Her Blessed (...) who tells you that I shall not listen to Her? Has your Mother not interceded in Cana? these signs were performed so that your spirit may understand what your spirit rejects today;1 this sign was meant for all ages to come; the Woman adorned with the sun, adorned with My Holy Spirit, thrice Holy and who fills the world, ranks as Mother of God;" (27.1.96)
God is speaking only to those who reject our Blessed Mother and to those who do not give Her enough honour.
Our Father Ten Hail Marys Glory be O My Jesus Jesus, my only love,
3. Jesus Proclaims the Coming of the Kingdom of God, with His Call to Conversion. Scripture Meditation: The preaching by which Jesus proclaims the coming of the Kingdom of God, calls to conversion (Mk 1:15) and forgives the sins of all who draw near to him in humble trust (Mk 2:3-13; Lk 7:47-48), 25
and the inauguration of that ministry of mercy which He continues to exercise until the end of the world, particularly through the Sacrament of Reconciliation, which He has entrusted to His Church. (Jn 20:22-23). Meditation from True Life in God messages: Our Blessed Mother speaks: "God comes to you all, even to the most wretched; return to God and He will return to you; come and make your home in His Heart as He makes His in yours; let it be known that without earnest prayers you will not be able to see the Kingdom of God; His reign on earth is at hand; remember, what God wants of you is a change of heart do not be afraid to acknowledge your sins; live and practise the sacrament of confession;" (23.4.93) Our Father Ten Hail Marys Glory be O My Jesus Jesus, my only love,
4. The Transfiguration of Jesus Scripture Meditation: The mystery of light par excellence is the Transfiguration, traditionally believed to have taken place on Mount Tabor. The glory of the Godhead shines forth from the face of Christ as the Father commands the astonished Apostles to "listen to Him" and to prepare to experience with Him the agony of the Passion, so as to come with Him to the joy of the Resurrection and a life transfigured by the Holy Spirit. (Lk 9:28-36) Meditation from True Life in God messages: Jesus says: "like in the transfiguration, I shall transfigure My Church to have all the radiant glory of Her youth, in Her bridal days;" (20.10.90) "My Will shall be done on earth as it is in Heaven because you will be one, worshipping Me around one Tabernacle with love in your heart and a Fire burning inside you; I shall accomplish My priestly prayer on earth as in Heaven, your souls shall be rooted in Me, in Love, in Unity and filled up with the utter fullness of My Spirit; yes, My beloved ones, I shall not only give you your daily bread, but also a hidden Treasure out of My Heart: The Celestial Manna,1 that transfigures, uplifts your spirit into a copy of My Spirit; you shall be transfigured with the outpouring of My Spirit " (19.12.90) 27
"I shall make out of each one of you a radiant city, I shall renew you entirely for this is the way I shall have you ready to wed My Holy Spirit;" (13.5.91) "I am on My way back to transfigure the whole of My creation in the goodness and holiness of theTruth;" (21.12.92)
That is: The Holy Spirit.
Our Father Ten Hail Marys Glory be O My Jesus Jesus, my only love
5. Jesus Institutes the Eucharist Scripture Meditation: Christ offers His body and blood as food under the signs of bread and wine, and testifies to the end His love for humanity, for whose salvation He will offer himself in sacrifice. (Jn 13) Meditation from True Life in God messages: The Father speaks: "My Grace I reveal to you and salvation has been given to you through My Son, Jesus Christ; in order to set you free, He sacrificed Himself for you; in 28
order for you to share a Divine Life, He constituted the Holy Eucharist to sanctify you and partake of His Body and Blood; you are not partaking any mere bread or wine, but you are partaking God Himself; if you would only reflect on this Mystery and understand it fully! the Inaccessible God is Accessible to you, the Invisible God is visible to you, and ready to divinize you; He whose grandeur surpassess all angelic forces and all beings and all that has been created, is at your disposal, creation! God Himself is being offered to you to give you back your divinity, divinizing your soul to enter Eternal Life; (30.6.99) I will re-erect My Eucharist in the houses1 that have been despoiled of My Presence and they shall become holy;" (16.10.2000)

Gethsemane you have depleted men from courage, you have suspended in your still air My agonies for all eternity. Gethsemane, what have you to declare that was undeclared? you have witnessed in the stillness of Holiness, the betrayal of your God, you have witnessed Me. the hour had come, Scriptures were to be fulfilled; daughter, I know that many souls believe in Me as though I was but a myth, they believe that I existed only in the past, for many I am but a passing shadow now eclipsed with time and evolution very few realize that I existed in flesh on earth and exist now among you I Am All what came to pass and is to pass; I know 30
their fears, I know their anguishes, I know their weaknesses, have I not witnessed all these frailties in Gethsemane? daughter, when Love prayed in Gethsemane, a thousand devils were shaken, fearing demons took flight, the hour had come: Love was glorifying Love.

I knew instantly that his kiss would spread among many and for generations to come, this same kiss will be given to Me over and over again, renewing My sorrow, rending My Heart Vassula, come let Me be consoled, let Me rest in your heart " (17.5.87) On the single bead: Our Father... On the next ten beads: Hail Mary... Recite each prayer once: Glory be... 31
O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those who are in most need of Your Mercy. Amen.

(Mt. 27:11-26; Jn. 18:28-40 and 19:1) Meditation from True Life in God messages: Jesus dictates His Passion: "having scourged Me they spat on Me and gave Me several hard blows on My head leaving Me dizzy, they kicked Me in My stomach leaving Me breathless and falling to the ground, moaning with pain they took sport in Me kicking Me by turn, I was unrecognizable, My body was broken and so was My heart, My flesh which was ripped off, hung all over My body ... one of them picked Me up and dragged Me because My legs would not carry Me any longer" (9.11.86) 32

3. Jesus is Crowned with a Woven Crown of Thorns. Scripture Meditation: The soldiers take sport in mocking Jesus. (Jn. 19:1-12) Meditation from True Life in God messages: Jesus continues: "then they clothed Me with one of their robes, they hauled Me foreward, repeating their blows, hitting Me across My face, breaking My nose,1 harassing Me, I listened to their insults, daughter with such hatred and mockery their voices resounded, augmenting My cup, I listened to them saying, 'where are your friends mustering while their king is with us, are all Jews as treacherous as these ones? behold their king!' and they crowned Me with a woven crown of thorns, 'where are your Jews to hail you, You ARE king are you not? can you mimic one? laugh! do not cry, you are king are you not, behave like one then'..."

I could not see where My cross was for My eyes were filled up with My blood which was streaking down My face from the thorns, which had penetrated My head. so they lifted My cross and layed it on My shoulders pushing Me towards the gates, 34
daughter, O how heavy My cross was which I had to bear! I felt My way to the gates, led by the scourge behind Me; I tried to see My way through My blood which burned My eyes. I then felt someone wiping My face, women in agony came forth washing My swollen face, I heard them weeping and mourning, I felt them, "be blessed", I uttered. "My blood will wash away all sins of mankind, behold daughters, the time has come for your salvation" "I dragged Myself up; the crowds turned wild, I could see no friend around Me, no one was there to console Me, My agony seemed to grow and I fell on the ground. fearing that I would expire before the crucifixion, the soldiers ordered a man called Simon to bear My cross. daughter, it was not a gesture of kindness or of compassion, it was to save Me for the cross."

I gazed upon the crowds, from where I was hardly seeing, from My swollen eyes, I watched the world; I saw no friend among those who mocked Me, no one was there 36
to console Me, 'My God! My God! why have you forsaken Me?' forsaken by all those who loved Me. My gaze fell on My Mother, I looked upon Her and our hearts spoke, 'I am giving you My beloved children to be your children too, You are to be their Mother'. all was ending, salvation was near, I saw the heavens open and every angel stood erect, all stood in silence, 'My Father, into Your hands I commend My Spirit, I am with You now'
I Jesus Christ dictated you My agony. bear1 My Cross, Vassula, bear it for Me, (...) for I love you, daughter." (9.11.86)

We lift our voices and petitions to God, Who in His loving kindness always listens and answers according to His Will. We respond to each petition: "Lord, hear our prayer." Examples of intercessory prayers: Jesus said: "I have come that you may have life and have it to the full." Let us pray that all people will come to Jesus, Who is True Life in God. "Lord, hear our prayer." Jesus said: "I am the Light of the world. Whoever follows Me will have the light of life and never walk in darkness." Let us pray for all those who are broken and wounded and walking in darkness that they will follow Jesus, Who is True Life in God. "Lord, hear our prayer." Jesus said to Simon and Andrew as they were fishing: "Come, follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men!" Let us pray for the Pope, the Patriarch and our hierarchy and religious, that they will follow Jesus, Who is True Life in God. "Lord, hear our prayer." 47
Jesus said: "I am the Resurrection." Let us pray for those who are still away from Jesus that they, too, be liberated and resurrected to live a True Life in God. "Lord, hear our prayer." We end the prayers of petition with thanksgiving and praise for God's great Mercy, in the spirit of the following prayer: A Prayer of Praise Glory be to God in the highest heaven, Glory be to Him who lifted my soul from the entrails of this earth; Glory be to the Light thrice Holy in whose power all things came to be; Glory be to God, invincible, incomparable in His Authority; Glory be to the Immortal One in whom we find immortality; May Your Breath Most Holy One which is pure emanation of Your Glory, enliven us, renewing us into one glorious Body. Amen. — Vassula (10.11.95) 48
We ask Jesus, Who is present, to instruct us through His Word, the Bible; to direct us through prayer and through His Holy Spirit to a passage which He wants us to read. As inspired, a silent meditation or a short sharing of the understanding of this passage is suggested.
Someone takes a True Life in God message book and asks Jesus in prayer to guide us to open where He wants us to read, and we listen to Him.
On occasion, a Healing Service may conclude a True Life In God prayer meeting. We invoke the Holy Spirit either with a song or a prayer and all remain in silent meditation. The following prayers may be used:
Prayers to the Holy Spirit Jesus says: " pray often to the Holy Spirit this prayer: Come Holy Spirit, come through the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Your Beloved Bride; Amen; with this prayer My Holy Spirit will haste and come upon you; pray for the effusion of My Holy Spirit to come upon you " (26.10.89)
Lord, drench us with Your Holy Spirit; come and invade me with Your Holy Spirit, so that the enemy finds no space within me, let Your Holy Spirit subside in the very depths of my soul to water it and lead it with riches, these of which are not of the world. Blessed be God." — Vassula (3.5.91)
Jesus says: "Let us pray "Holy Spirit descend upon us renewing us, fill our soul with Your Love, rest in our tormented soul giving us Peace, envelop us with Your wings sheltering us from all evil, humble us, guide us in Your Light to be able to see Your desires and thus fulfill them, amen."
"Come, come to us Lord and multiply Your Seal of Your Holy Spirit's Love on our forehead, the seal of the Promise; God, create a clean heart in us, I know that You are at the doorstep of every soul, waiting for their response, Your Eyes languishing for their door to open;
Your Vineyards are flowering now my Lord and soon they will give enough fruit to feed every desert; the dead will not come to life unless You breathe on them arousing them with Your sweet fragrance; for the sake of Your Love let this land of ghosts come to life again." — Vassula (23.5.90) "O Holy Spirit of Truth descend upon us and be our Guide and Holy Companion, Holy Spirit of Love, come upon us and teach us to be in the real Love of God. Remind us the True Knowledge, this knowledge the Father had given us but that we lost because of our sins, Holy Spirit of Peace, give us Your Peace, a Peace the world cannot give; make out of each one of us vessels of Light and "peacemakers, so that when we work for Peace, we will be able to sow seeds which will bear fruit in holiness." (James 3:18) amen. — Vassula (6.1.91) 52

Jesus asks us to pray this prayer often: Sacred Heart of Jesus, come and invade me completely so that my motives will be Your Motives, my desires Your Desires, my words Your Words, my thoughts Your Thoughts, then allow me to creep in the deepest place of Your Sacred Heart annihilate me altogether; I, (…), shall worship Your Sacred Heart from the core of mine, I promise to serve Your Sacred Heart with a fire inside me, I shall, with zeal, serve You more fervently than before; I am weak but I know that your Strength shall sustain me; do not allow me to lose sight of You, nor allow my heart to flutter elsewhere; 59
I, (…), will look for Your Sacred Heart alone and desire You alone; Sacred Heart of Jesus, make me dislike all that is contrary to Your Holiness and to Your Will; sift me through and through and make sure that not one rival remains within me; from today, tighten the bonds of Love with which you have enlaced me, and make my soul thirst for You and my heart sick with love for You; Sacred Heart of Jesus, do not wait, come and consume my whole being with the Flames of Your ardent Love; whatever I will do from now on, will be done merely for Your Interests and Your Glory and nothing for me; I, (…), consecrate my life for you and from today am willing to be the slave of Your Love, the victim of Your Burning Desires and of Your Passion, 60
the benefit of Your Church, and the toy of Your Soul; make my traits resemble those of Your Crucifixion through the bitterness I will encounter in the deafness of souls, and to see them fall; give my soul its fill; Sacred Heart of Jesus, do not spare me from Your Cross, like the Father had not spared You; arrest my eyes, my thoughts and my desires to be captives of Your Sacred Heart; unworthy, I am, and I deserve nothing, but help me to live my act of consecration by being loyal, invoking Your Holy Name untiringly; make my spirit repulse all that is not You; Sacred Heart of Jesus, make my soul bear more than ever before, the Marks of Your Body for the conversion of souls; I, (…), voluntarily submit my will to Your Will, now and forever; amen; – Jesus (26.1.92) 61
Consecration to the Two Hearts
"designated in the prophecies of Your Word, O Lord, we know, we trust and we believe that the Triumph of Your Sacred Heart, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary is in the near future; therefore, we humbly come to consecrate ourselves, our families and our country to Your Two Sacred Hearts; we believe that in consecrating our country to You, nation will not lift sword against nation and there will be no more training for war; we believe that in consecrating our country to Your Two Loving Hearts, all human pride and arrogance, all godlessness and hardening of the heart be effaced, and that every evil will be replaced with love and good things; 62
we believe that Your Two Holy Hearts will not resist our sighs now and our needs, but in their Loving Flame will hear us and come to us to heal our deep wounds and bring us peace; O Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary, blow on us a spark from Your Two Hearts to flare up our heart, make out of our nation the perfect Dwelling-Place of Your Holiness; abide in us and we in You so that through the Love of Your Two Hearts, we may find Peace, Unity and Conversion;" Amen – Jesus (21.9.93)

I could not see where My cross was for My eyes were filled up with My blood which was streaking down My face from the thorns, which had penetrated My head. so they lifted My cross and layed it on My shoulders pushing Me towards the gates, daughter, O how heavy My cross was which I had to bear! I felt My way to the gates, led by the scourge behind Me, I tried to see My way through My blood which burned My eyes." (9.11.86) 3.

(9.11.86) 75
your clothes, My child, will roll in your blood, and this, too, will be the evidence that you come from Me; you were born for this and your acceptance delights Me because through your sufferings I will save many" (23.10.95) 11. Jesus is Nailed to the Cross — Mt 27:35; Mk 15:25-26; Lk 23:33-38; Jn 19:18 "they quickly nailed My wrists first, and after allowing the nails to set in My cross, they stretched My broken body and with violence pierced My feet through. daughter O daughter what pain, what agony, what torment of My soul, forsaken by My beloved ones, denied by Peter upon whom I would found My Church, denied by the rest of My friends, left all alone, abandoned to My foes, I wept, for My soul was filled with sorrow. (9.11.86) I have allowed them to crucify Me, all out of Love for you O children of The Crucified! how could you forget all that I have done for you? Wisdom had descended to be taken by force and by law, I was despised and rejected by men to bear your sufferings, I was nailed to the Wood to free you, I allowed them to pierce Me, and deliver you; I accepted a most painful death, so that your soul may live and be able to share My Kingdom; I let My Blood run out into Rivers, so 76
that you may obtain Eternal Life for your sake, I allowed Myself to be taken for a sinner (3.3.89) how could you not love one another? how could you honour Me when you select and reject;1 I was not nailed on the Cross for only the just;" (21.11.86)
His Teachings. The Traditions of the Church
12. Jesus Dies on the Cross — Mt 27:46-50; Mk 15:33-37; Lk 23:44-46; Jn 19:30 "the soldiers erected My cross setting it in the furrow. I gazed upon the crowds, from where I was hardly seeing, from My swollen eyes, I watched the world; I saw no friend among those who mocked Me, no one was there to console Me, "My God! My God! why have you forsaken Me?" forsaken by all those who loved Me. My gaze fell on My Mother, I looked upon Her and our hearts spoke, "I am giving you My beloved children to be your children too, You are to be their Mother". (9.11.86) "remember when I was on the Cross? what were the words I said? I said that She is your Mother too; She loves you and cares for you; Abba gives to whom He pleases; accept what God is giving you; (4.10.86)
I cried out from My Cross, It was My last loud cry I gave when I was in flesh, a cry full of sufferings, pains, and bitterness resounding from the depths of My Soul, piercing the heights in Heaven. It shook the earth's foundations and tore in half the hearts of those who loved Me, as it ripped the veil in the Temple It aroused devout followers of Mine, as It aroused the dead from their graves, overthrowing the earth that covered them, as It overthrew Evil. Great thunder shook the very Heavens above and every angel trembling fell prostrate and worshipped Me in total silence My Mother, standing nearby, on hearing My cry, fell to the ground on Her knees and covered Her face weeping, carrying that last cry with Her to the day of Her dormition; She suffered ... (29.4.87) all was ending, salvation was near, I saw the heavens open and every angel stood erect, all stood in silence, "My Father, into Your hands I commend My Spirit, I am with You now". (9.11.86) I am embittered; suffering still from many iniquities of the world; wickedness, lawlessness and egoism. My Cry is growing louder every day I was left alone on My Cross, alone to bear the sins of the world on My
shoulders alone to suffer, alone to die, shedding My Blood which covered the entire world redeeming you My beloved ones ; that same Cry is now on earth like an echo of the past, am I living in the shadows of the past? was My Sacrifice in vain? how can you not hear then My Cry from the Cross? why do you shut your ears and dispel It? " (29.4.87)
13. Jesus is taken down from the Cross — Mt 27:59; Mk 15:46; Lk 23:53; Jn 19:39 Our Mother Mary speaks: "...never lose courage, I am beside you, enter into Jesus' Wounds, enter into My Sorrowful Heart and feel My sorrow, feel how I weep; I come to many,1 I show them My Heart, I give signs by letting My Images shed tears, I appear at various places, but My children's hearts are covered by a thick crust, a layer of disbelief, they ridicule those who believe, the Word of God means nothing to them, the calls of God are ignored, they pay little heed on Our warnings, no one wants to listen on revelations given
by God and spoken from His Mouth, your era's faith has vanished, swept away by intolerance, perversion, cruelty and ignominy, how sorrowful My Immaculate Heart is, My Hand can no longer keep God's Arm from falling upon you;" (6.8.88)
14. Jesus is laid in the Sepulchre — Mt 27:60; Mk 15:46; Lk 23:53; Jn 19:41-42 "I mean to raise you from your graves and lead you back to your domain: My Sacred Heart; (10.4.90) and you My child who read Me or hear Me, you whom I visited your grave and made My Breath enter you, I tell you: follow the marks of My Blood I leave behind for you as a sign and if you are stopped and interrogated on your way by a passer-by, tell him that you are My pupil and I your Master and that you are on your way to witness a crucified Christ, a resurrected Christ; and if you will be stopped by a trader beware of his dishonesty, beware that he does not exchange the Cross I have given you for a corrupt socalled wisdom; without a sound, without a word embrace more fervently than ever the bar across your shoulders, and fol80
low the marks of My Blood and they will lead you to Me; and if anyone of these start proceeding against you, do not cover your face against insult or strike, offer your backs too, so that they know you from your wounds, let them be a perfect imitation of My Wounds for they will be given to you by the very same ones who stroke Me, your Master; and then the Sign of the Son of Man will appear in the skies, a great light shall be seen in your darkness, for I, the Holy One mean to save you for the sake of My Name; come, My child, you who hear Me or read Me, I have shown My Love for you again in this testimony, do not say, that I am too far away to love for at this very instant My Eyes are upon you with a special tenderness and an affection you can never understand fully; had I to return just for your sake alone to redeem you, without the slightest hesitation I would come and repeat My Passion, for your sake alone! Now do you believe Me when I tell you that a man can have no greater love than to lay down his life for his friends? I am telling you all this so that you may find your peace in My Sacred Heart, so that you may find true life in Me, so that you may find true love and rest in Me your God; I know that you are weak, My child, but your weakness attracts My Omnipotence;
can you take in what I say? I say: peace be with you! I am the Victim of Love who speaks to you, I am He who gave you this testimony of Love as a reminder of My Love; absorb Me and allow Me to invade you feel how My Heart yearns for a return of love! do not resist Me, come to Me as you are, come and drink the flow of My Heart and you shall thirst for more; oh so many of you wandered away from the Truth and went this way and that; the Truth is LOVE; I am the Truth; be witnesses for the Truth; receive the Holy Spirit of Truth, receive the Holy Spirit of Grace I bless you all leaving My Sigh of Love on your foreheads; be one under My Holy Name " (22.10.90) — The Stations of the Cross is a Catholic Prayer
'The more rain falls on the earth, the softer it makes it; similarly, Christ's Holy Name gladdens the earth of our heart the more we call upon it.' – St. Hesychios the Priest
The Jesus prayer, a prayer of the heart rooted in Byzantine mysticism ("Jesus Christ Son of God, have mercy on me the sinner") is often prayed using a prayer rope (komboskini in Greek, vervitsa or chotki in Russian) consisting of 33, 50, 100, 103 or 300 knots or beads. They are usually made of black wool and are marked off at intervals by wooden, glass or metal beads. Sometimes the long ones are decorated with a cross and tassel. The tassel - according to tradition - was used to wipe one's tears. (continued on next page) 83
Using a prayer rope is simple enough: one says the Jesus prayer on each knot. On the cross one says: Most Holy Mother of God, save us. To Orthodox Christians, the usual reverent posture for prayer is standing, so the prayer rope should be said standing with bows or prostrations, or making the Sign of the Cross. The tradition of repeating this distinctive prayer was developed in Orthodox monasteries. Jesus Prayer Ropes are available in the following colours: White, Gold or Silver = Resurrection, Green = Hope, Blue = Mother of God, Red = Martyrs and Holy Cross, Purple = Repentance, Black = Mourning of Sins
The Jesus Rosary is on page 44 of the Prayer Meeting Guidelines. "... I tell you if anyone prays this Rosary to Me, heaven will open to him and My Mercy shall save him;..." (18.1.1990)
"With the Rosary, the Christian people sits at the school of Mary and is led to contemplate the beauty on the face of Christ and to experience the depths of His love. Through the Rosary the faithful receive abundant grace, as though from the very hands of the Mother of the Redeemer" – Apostolic Letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae, John Paul II, 16.10.2002
Glory Be Our Father
10 Hail Marys
Our Father Glory Be 3 Hail Marys Our Father
Hail, Holy Queen (at end)
Apostles Creed
Bless yourself with the Cross to begin and end the Rosary.
The Rosary is made up of "decades". A decade is one "Our Father", followed by ten "Hail Marys", then a "Glory Be". (continued on next page) 85
These are normally followed by other prayers, such as the "O My Jesus", and/or "Jesus, My Only Love". There are four sets of five decades, each decade being an episode in the life of Jesus and Mary making a total of 20 episodes. The different episodes or 'stories' should be prayed about or meditated on whilst the prayers are being recited. Rosaries come in a wide range of sizes and colours and are made from everything from wood, plastic, glass beads, seedpods, and even precious stones. It has been said that it is better to recite one decade of the Holy Rosary well than to recite five badly. Full details of the Rosary prayers and the Mysteries start on page 13 onwards.
"...please Me by praying the Holy Rosary, feel the Mysteries, see them through your Holy Mother's Eyes ..." (4.6.88) "... .every prayer should come from the heart, you have to feel what you say, so take your time by meditating every Mystery (29.11.88)
Note to the Reader
Punctuation in this book follows the original handwritten Messages where commas, semi-colons and colons are mostly used with the occasional full stop. Sentences begin with lower case letters except where the words refer to God or to St Mary (Our Lady) or where occasionally they have been used for emphasis. The spelling is also taken from the original Manuscript. Vassula says: "I never understood why the text was punctuated in this manner until one day some priest told me that the Old Testament was written in the same style in Hebrew". The Publishers have striven to replicate the hand-written messages in this type-scripted version, leaving spelling mistakes as they appear in the original.1 That stated, they regret any error in transcription however minor.
The reader is referred to the messages of 7.11.1989 and 25.2.1991

German Field Fortifications 1939-45
NOOK Book(eBook)
The German Army of World War II considered itself an offensive, mobile force. The experiences in the trenches in World War I had done much to shape its concept of field fortification, and its mobile warfare ethos was intended to prevent the previous war's stalemate. This book addresses frontline defensive field fortifications, built by infantrymen using local materials, and includes rifle platoon positions, trenches, crew-served weapon positions, bunkers, dugouts, shelters and more. It also covers anti-tank and anti-personnel obstacles, as well as field camouflage methods and construction methods. The integration of these positions into permanent systems and theatre-specific defences are also discussed.

STEP ONE: Cut out 2 pieces of burlap for the base of the pillow (one for the front & one for the back) in the dimension you want. Leaving yourself a 1/2 inch seam allowance on all sides.
STEP TWO: Rip or cut fabric for ruffles. I like to rip my fabric because I like the look it gives me. My strips were about 1.5 inches wide by double the height of my pillow.
STEP THREE: Stitch ruffles using your sewing machine set to the longest stitch length. Leave yourself long threads and the beginning and end, and then pull one of the threads to create the ruffle. I used white thread so it would show up in the picture. Use a thread that matches your fabric.
STEP FOUR: Place and pin ruffles to front of pillow. Machine stitch in place.
STEP FIVE: Pin your piping into place on the front piece of fabric, going over any ruffles at the edges. When you get to the corners, cut a series of slits into the piping to allow it to curve nicely. Using your sewing foot for piping, sew piping into place. Overlap the beginning and end of the piping.
STEP SIX: Sew the back piece in place. The easiest way I've found to do this without messing up the piping is to turn the pillow around so that the wrong side of the front of the pillow is facing up. That way you can stitch directly over your previous stitches, using them as a guide. Leave yourself enough of an opening to turn the pillow right side out and stuff. Trim any excess.
STEP SEVEN: Turn right side out and stuff. I chose to use stuffing because the dimensions I wanted my pillow to be were not available in a form.
STEP EIGHT: Hand stitch opening close (sorry, I realized after the fact that I didn't take a picture of this) and enjoy!

|UNION and the parentheses
|Tue, 03 Aug 2010 13:18:17 GMT
Hello, According to the MySQL's documentation (5.0), if the ORDER BY or the LIMIT clause, are used with UNION, the "( )" have to be added to each SELECT statements. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/union.html "To use an ORDER BY or LIMIT clause to sort or limit the entire UNION result, parenthesize the individual SELECT statements and place the ORDER BY or LIMIT after the last one." But empire-db version 2.0.6 produces "<DBCommand> UNION (<DBCommand>) ORDER BY <DBColumn>" and there is no "( )" to the first SELECT. But by chance it continues to work with the ORDER BY, but with the keyword LIMIT it stops! The class in charge to build the UNION command seems to be DBCombinedCmd (line 102 - public boolean getSelect(StringBuilder buf) ) Could you please advise about a workarround? /Cheers.
