Adoration Chapel

Hello, Jesus ever present in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar. I adore You, praise You and glorify You, my Lord and my God! Thank You for allowing us to be here with You today. Thank You for Holy Mass this morning and Holy Communion. Lord, there are so many who need Your healing, consolations and guidance. Jesus, please be with the young man we met last evening. Help him not to be discouraged. Help him to grow closer to You. Guide him, protect him and teach him all he needs to learn. Bless (names withheld) marriage, Jesus and grant them the desire to have their marriage convalidated in the Church. Give them graces of conversion and deep love for You, the Church and for one another. Bless all who are ill, especially (names withheld) and all who are on the parish prayer list. Lord, bless Your holy priest sons, the Bishops, our Holy Father and all deacons and religious. Guard the sanctity of their vocations and keep them safe in Your Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Please bring home those who are away from the Church, especially (names withheld). Jesus, take care of all our needs. Lord, give our grandchildren the holy longing for You. Set their hearts on fire with the flame of Your pure love. Lord, be with the Church in this dark hour. Raise up many vocations to the priesthood and religious life. Guide, guard and direct the Holy Father. Surround him with holy counsel and give him extraordinary gifts of discernment, wisdom and right-judgement.

I love You, Lord, and I place all my trust in You. All that I am is Yours and all that I have is Yours. I give You my ‘yes’ again today, Lord. Use me as You Will. Lord, I invite You to be present in every meeting I have with others this week. Help me to recognize Your presence in each person. Help me to listen with my heart to all they say and even to what is not said. Pour Your love into my heart and allow it to flow through me to others. Spread Your grace everywhere I go, Jesus. Use my hands and feet to carry You to those I encounter and may each encounter really be a meeting, an encounter with You. St. Padre Pio, pray for me. St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, pray for me. All you holy men and women, all angels in Heaven, pray for me. Pray for my family and my friends and most especially, pray for those people in the world who do not know the love of God. Bring about conversion of the entire world, Jesus through the Immaculate Heart of Mary and renew the face of the earth through Your Holy Spirit. Jesus, I trust in You. Jesus, I trust in You. Jesus, I trust in You. Lord, give each child of ours the gifts of faith, hope and love. The gift of holiness and one day may they all inherit Your Kingdom, Heaven.

“My child, My little one, I thank you for coming to adore Me today. I know of your weariness and I bless you both for coming to be with Me in spite of this fatigue you are experiencing. Thank you for choosing the work I have for you over your personal comfort. You are concerned about your encounter with the young man (name withheld) last evening. Do not be concerned. You were not out of line speaking with him, but instead acted on the promptings of My Spirit. My child, he needed the encouragement you gave him. I know you felt uneasy with the words that flowed through you, since you did not know him, but remember, I know him well. These words were what his heart desperately needed. He will hold them in his heart as a source of hope for a long time to come. Pray for him. He needs your prayers. I ask you and (name withheld) to remember him often in your prayers for others. I have a plan for his life, My child and just as you told him, the evil one works to destroy this plan. He is vulnerable, as many young people are. The youth of this day, generally speaking, are not disposed to receiving graces, as they have little knowledge of Me, the Gospel, the beauty of virtue and have not been well formed. Much prayer is needed for the youth of this day, and for young adults who have been raised in this culture devoid of God and My love. Pray, pray, pray. Pray for these beautiful children of God who desperately seek My love and have no idea what it is they are seeking and no clue where to find Me. Pray for holy families, for chaste and pure holy parents who will instruct and form hearts for God and for My Kingdom.”

“My child, you are concerned for your grandchildren and especially for (name withheld) as you notice he is growing and beginning to exert his independence. It is important for him that (name withheld) and you spend time with him. Be present to him and encourage his gifts. He has many, and you will notice more unfolding in time. Allow him space to make mistakes, but correct him quickly with love and patience. He has a fiery heart, but one such as this requires firmness, mixed with patience and gentleness. I will channel his gifts with My graces so that he will grow into a good man with a heart for God. All will be well. Limit his exposure to worldly things. His mother, My (name withheld) is suffering physical trials. Her crosses are being used for My glory. I love her. She is a beautiful flower and her suffering brings the perfume of My grace to many souls in need of love. Give her My words, My daughter. I am carrying her through this challenging time. I am with her. I am with each child of yours. This time before Me in Adoration is a gift that you give to Me, and I will secure many graces for your family and your loved ones in turn.”

Thank You, Jesus. Praise You, Lord. I believe You because You have said so, Jesus though at times I see no sign of these graces. Still, we do not come here to be with You because of what we need You to do for us, but we come because of our love for You. You deserve to be loved and adored, Lord God. You are beautiful. You are magnificent. You are the Almighty God, King of All Nations, Redeemer, Savior, Creator and Lover of the human race. You are the essence of holiness, purity, righteousness, love and mercy. You are love. You deserve to be loved. Thank You for who You are, Lord. My words are inadequate and fail to describe Your infinite goodness. I love You, Jesus. Thank You for Your love!

“You are welcome, My child. Your attempt to describe what you feel in your heart touches Me and fills Me with joy. I know your heart, My little lamb, and you are growing more intimate with Me and growing in the knowledge of My Sacred Heart, the characteristics of God. My sheep, My friends know My voice and you child, are My friend. You are thinking about the times you have disappointed Me?”

Yes, Jesus. I am glad You think of Me as Your friend. Indeed, I am honored to be Your friend, but I am not such a good friend to You. Certainly, not as good as many of Your friends and absolutely pitiful in comparison to Your loyalty to me. Help me to be more loyal to You, Jesus. I don’t ever want to disappoint You again, Jesus. Take My many character flaws and transform them through Your grace. Help me, Jesus to be more loving, more even tempered, more patient, more self-giving. Help me to be like Your holy and pure Mother. Give me a heart like Hers, Lord. Blessed Mother, please give me Your heart in place of mine. No heart loves Jesus like Yours, Blessed Mother.

“My child, My little one, I hear your prayer. My Mother hears your prayer. Be patient with yourself, as I am patient with you. I am bringing you along the path to holiness with the utmost care. A soul growing in holiness must be nurtured and watered, have the proper amount of sunshine, warmth and nutrients to put down deep roots. These deep roots firmly support the plant and provide a deeper supply of water and nutrients. Then during the cold, winter months the plant is able to survive. Later, when the good weather returns, the plant grows even stronger. The cycle repeats until the plant can outlast storms, drought conditions, wind, disease and all manner of trials. This only occurs slowly, My child and over time. Such it is with your soul. I patiently prune, fertilize and water your soul, My child. All the while you are becoming more and more firmly rooted in your love for Me and for the Trinity. You see My hand in many ordinary situations now, My little lamb. I give you times of enlightenment and insight even though partially veiled, so that you do not see the complete picture, but sense I am at work. You sense specific times that My plan is beginning to unfold, before there are any tangible signs. This is gifted to you because you are close to Me and those who draw near to My Sacred Heart know the workings of My Heart and can recognize signs of My Divine Will at work. Keep these insights close to your heart. They are My gift to you and though you are still not certain of the outcome I delight in your wonder and awe. It is the same way you felt when your children were young and full of excitement on Christmas Day. You watched with joy, their delight in the many surprises wrapped with love and great attention. You knew what was inside each package, but delighted in their joy and in their anticipation. I too, am delighted when My children have a sense of awe as they watch My plans unfold. I desire to share everything with My children and I willingly share with those who seek My friendship. I share more gifts of the Holy Spirit with those who are well disposed. My Children of Light, I repeat My invitation to frequent the Sacraments, Reconciliation and Holy Communion. Strive for purity of heart. Bring everything to Me, no matter how large or small. I am your All. I am your Jesus. There is nothing I will refuse you when it comes to your growth in holiness. The Sacraments provide the needed graces for your growth in love and holiness. This is the means I choose to use and have made available to you. Do not continue to take these great gifts for granted, but be thankful for them. Avail yourselves of the Sacraments so that you will be firmly planted in rich soil and firmly rooted in My love. Together, we will accomplish the Will of My Father for mankind. I need you, My children. I love you and I choose to use you as My instruments. The Sacraments will give you the necessary graces to love one another, as I love you.”

“My (name withheld), My (name withheld) I love you and I bless you in the name of My Father, in My name and in the name of My Holy Spirit. Go in My peace. Go in My love. Be joy, be mercy, be love to all you encounter. Bring My light to a world in darkness and in desperation. May all of My children be conduits of love to each person encountered on the road on which you journey to the Eternal Father. In this way, all will come to know Me through My holy Children of Light and love. Then, the renewal you pray for, long for and which will come through My Mother’s Immaculate Heart will come. Pray for this, work for this in love. The work I refer to is the work you cooperate with Me to do and it begins in your own souls through prayer. Therefore, pray My children. Pray”

“This is all, My little lamb. I am with you. I will be with you each day. I love you. I give you My peace. I breathe on you, My son and My daughter. My Spirit is with you now in a more profound way. You will not see this, but that is My Will. All will be well.”

Thank You, Jesus. Praise You, Lord. Amen! Alleluia!
