Channels of Light, Love, and Life

Oh Jesus,
May your light, love, and life
Be our joy and our hope,
Our faith, compassion, and kindness.

May your word, Jesus,
Be like water,
Washing the dirt from our consciences,
Not merely to gesture,
But to renew us completely.

Renew our hearts,
For a healed heart
Is a whole heart.

Keep your love true within us,
For untrue love is no love at all.
Love that is untrue
Is as good as none.

O God, keep your light true.
Let the Holy Spirit
Make us channels
Of love, of life, and of light,
For your greater glory.

For our glory is nothing.
The glory of God
Is love and peace,
Compassion, kindness, and mercy.

Your mercy does not run out
For those who truly want it,
For those willing to change.

But time will run out
For those who refuse to change their ways.
Teach us to seek you
With whole hearts,
Whole minds,
And whole souls.

If we reject Jesus,
How can we enter heaven?
There is no other way
Than the name and teachings of Christ,
Given through his apostles.

Oh Jesus,
May your life
And your teachings
Be our lasting joy
And our salvation.

Teach us to live with kindness,
With love and compassion,
For what we do to others
We do to Christ.

Be our daily bread,
Our firm foundation,
And our medicine.
Let compassion
Be oil in our lamps.

Keep your ways pure and true,
Carry us through easy times
And through hardship,
For there is a time of plenty
And a time of gleaning.

Amen.

Be True in All You Think, Say, and Do

There’s only one path to salvation, one path to joy.

Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life;

No man comes to the Father except through me,

But he meant something much deeper.

We need to live with our lamps trimmed and extra oil.

This oil is Christ consciousness, devotion to Jesus in our heart.

We need to live with our hearts clean, full of devotion to Christ.

We must be true in all we think, say, and do.

For to be obedient to God is not just to comply with His wishes,

But also to have sincerity in our hearts

And to live out every day to the best of our abilities,

With true Christ consciousness.

Amen

Let Christ Consciousness Grow in our Minds

May the Christ consciousness be poured

Out on the earth as the water is and

Cover the sea

May the light of the flame

Which is love, pure and true, cover the world.

And we who are sinners

Be the flame of love,

And not only see it,

But let the flame of love and

The Christ consciousness grow in our minds

Like wheat in the field
Like grapes on a vine,

Let the gentle heart of Jesus
Be our guide

Amen

Removing the Weeds of the Heart

Heaven, grace, mercy, compassion, and wisdom

Incarnated is Jesus, our true Savior,

Our loving, gentle, compassionate healer for all time.

Jesus, help us to be healers for mankind,

To heal the darkness in their hearts,

Even when they think they have no darkness at all,

Because seeing the darkness is the first step of healing.

The next step is to understand its cause

And remove it with God’s help,

For we cannot do this ourselves.

We must rely on Christ our Savior.

He will help us remove the weed from our heart

If we so desire it to be so.

He will not just remove the weeds,

But also the roots,

Because if we remove the weeds without the roots,

They will grow back.

But if we remove the roots,

They will stay away for good,

Unless we decide to replant on our own

With deliberate actions and words

Not words and actions spoken in weakness,

But words and actions that are premeditated.

Amen. 

The Golden Box and the Way to God

In my dream last night, I saw a golden box

Covered in red silk cloth decorated with seashells and sapphires.

The seashells remind us of rebirth in Christ, our Savior.

The red silk cloth reminds us that the blood of Jesus

Is the way to God, given that we live in compassion,

Mercy, kindness, faith, hope, and love.

It stands for true, everlasting, pure wisdom

Of the Blessed Mary, full of kindness, mercy, faith, hope, and love.

When we have a relationship with the Mother of God,

Holy and true, we look forward to heaven as our home,

Because it is the home of Christ.

If we want to understand and do what is true,

Kindness opens the doors to heaven.

How can we seek heaven and God’s kingdom

If we do not act with kindness, compassion, faith, hope, and love?

For love is true when it comes from God,

And love is false when it comes from anything other than God.

Seashells also remind us of baptism.

Baptism lights our path, washing away sin that makes us spiritually unclean.

We see God’s light helping us understand

Love, obedience, mercy, kindness, and God’s true compassion forever.

If we see that God is truly kind, loving, and full of mercy,

We should not take advantage by sinning or doing wrong.

God’s kindness and mercy are meant to lead us to change

Changing our minds, changing our actions,

Changing our attitude, and changing our consciousness.

Amen

The Path of Honesty and Compassion

May the honesty that comes from Heaven

Be forever in our hearts and minds.

Let the compassion of Jesus help us

Understand the way of God, our true Father.

The path of Jesus is compassion and honesty,

Holiness and true kindness,

A heart full of mercy mixed with honesty and love,

Forming everlasting compassion.

As Jesus fills our hearts with joy,

May we walk in the way shown by Christ our Savior,

The path true and pure.

First comes honesty, then kindness.

Help us take the path to everlasting life,

Like stones that help us cross a river,

Mixed with light and love in Jesus Christ.

Oh Jesus, help us be strong

In faith, hope, and love.

Make us honest and compassionate at heart.

Oh Jesus, may Your love infuse our hearts,

May Your light infuse our minds.

Oh Jesus, be our joy.

May we express our love for the Father in truth.

May we learn to walk in the path of Jesus.

Amen.

We Toil in Vain Without the Lord

True and pure must be our mission.

Everyone has a mission,
But not every mission is approved by the Lord.

For the Lord wants purity, obedience, compassion,
Kindness, justice, peace, and love.

May the Lord bless our missions
If they are according to His Word,

But if they are not according to His Word,
The mission is worthless.

Unless the house is built by the Lord,
The laborers labor in vain.

Unless the city is guarded by the Lord,
The guards keep watch in vain.

The mission the Lord approves
Is to spread the teachings of Christ and no other

His light, His teachings, His name. 

Amen
