ROSARY MEDITATIONS
The Glorious Mysteries

June 14, 1995

Note: This rosary was prayed in the Sorrowful Mother Chapel at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, Norwood, Ohio.

The Resurrection of Jesus

1. Song: This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad. This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad.
2. Jesus: Let go and surrender. Come to Me. I rose on the third day. So, too, you shall rise from all your difficulties and trials. I am Jesus Christ, Son of God. I am present to you, My beloved ones, and I speak to you through this rosary.
3. Jesus: Tied to the pillar! Bound to the cross! Are you bound to the difficulties of this life? Let go! Come to Me! Let Me saturate you with My life and you will be raised to such heights as you are lifted high through My life, through My grace. Let go! Surrender and trust! I am the Almighty God. I am within you. Your every thought, your every action you do with Me, My beloved ones, joined in union with Me so that your every thought is a thought you share with the Almighty God. Do not fear, do not fret. I was victorious and rose from the dead and you, too, if you are joined in union with Me, shall rise victorious from your struggles.
4. Jesus: Satan presses down on each one. Each soul he wants to devour, to torment. I am the Almighty God. It is through the Holy Spirit that you are lifted high. Let Me fill your hearts, My beloved ones. Let the Holy Spirit infiltrate your being and you, too, will be raised to such heights, for the Almighty God is a power that cannot be contained. You will feel a releasing of this vibrancy within your being and you will know life as you have never known life before. I am Jesus and I fill you with My life within your very being.
5. Jesus: You will experience freedom, for to know Me is to be free of fear. If you realized that the Almighty God lives within you and performs each and every action with you, you are freed from fear.
6. Jesus: Great insights into My mysteries I give to you. Many live but are dead in spirit. I impart to you the gifts of the Spirit, the vibrancy of His life radiating within you, filling you and carrying you on your way. You will radiate to all those with whom you come in contact for I am the Almighty God and I live within you and I operate through you to those you touch. Let go! Surrender! Let go of anything that holds you bound. Do not be held bound to your thoughts. Focus on Me.
7. Jesus: Do you feel My life as it fills your soul, My dear ones? Let go! Experience My life within. You share in My divine life. Your human nature is elevated to higher levels as you partake more fully in My life. I am the Almighty God, a force too mighty to be contained, and I speak to you and give you My abundant grace. Open wide and absorb all that I am giving you. Do not fret or fear for I am God!
8. Jesus: My plan will unfold at this Center despite all those involved and how they resist and are willful in their ways. It is not up to them to operate this plan. This is the plan of the Father. Only in compliance with His Will will His plan work smoothly. It is their own willfulness that is causing this confusion and doubt. I cry out to you to come to Me and be filled with My life for you will be a pillar of strength. As others fumble about you, you will be steadfast in My love and My strength. I am the Almighty God. You I have chosen to hear these words. You are being guarded. Release yourself. Comply with the Will of the Father. The plan will unfold and you are a big part of this plan.
9. Jesus: Come unto Me, you who are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Release yourselves. The anxiety that you feel within is quieted and you rest quietly and securely in the arms of the Almighty God.
10. Song: New life! New life! You came to bring us new life!
    
    Song between decades: Come, Holy Spirit, fill our hearts. Enkindle in us the fire of Your love. Come, Holy Spirit, fill our hearts. Enkindle in us, the fire of Your love.

The Ascension

1. Jesus: I am the Bread of Life. I give you My life. You are filled, My dear ones, with the life of the Almighty God. Come to Me in the Eucharist for I give you Myself. You will be with all mankind when you unite with Me in the Eucharist. It is through the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass that men will be united in this world. Pray always in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and feel this union in your spirit with all in the world. To unite with Me is to unite with one another. You cannot be one in Me and be at odds with your brother. To be one in Me is to be in union with all others.
2. R. He ascended into heaven! If we envision this sight, the Almighty God going into the sky, we can realize a little of His might.
3. R. We see with limited vision. We do not see as we should see. Only through the Holy Spirit, when He opens up our eyes and our ears and our hearts and imparts to us His gifts, will we see more clearly.
   Jesus: I give to you, My dear, sweet ones, such insights into the problems in this world. Come to Me and I will fill you with My life and you will understand and comprehend mysteries that others do not see. I am the Almighty God. It is through Me that you will understand more fully this divine plan as it unfolds right before your eyes, for it is My might living in you that will help this plan to unfold as it should. You must come to Me and unite closely. I will operate through you and work in you and minister to all those you touch. I am Jesus, the Almighty God, one, true, magnificent! I am God!
4. Jesus: Come unto Me, all who are weary, and you will be lifted to heights you would not dream possible. I apply My grace and you feel the freedom, the freedom of flying. I give to you, My beloved ones, My life within you. You are powered to such heights. Let go of those things that keep you bolted to the ground. Let go of all! Surrender and let Me run your life. Have no judgments toward any man. See him as a creation of the Father, uniquely created with specialness and dignity. Love all. Look at each person in that person's uniqueness. Look at each person with eyes to see the beauty with which the Father created him or her. Even when a soul is in apparent wretchedness, the beauty of the Almighty Creator shines through each soul. It is not up to you to judge, but to love. I give to you this commandment: love God and love one another. In all things love and live according to the Father's Will. It is this by which you will be judged: how you complied with His Will, how you loved one another, all acts performed in greatest love. I am the Almighty God and I give to you this commandment: love God and love your neighbor as yourself.
5. Jesus: In the Eucharist, My dear ones, I give you Myself! Do you see that the Almighty God comes to you, inside of you, with such great love? Why do you worry what others say and think? You must love them. Many are hurting this day. Have you loved? Will you love for Me? Will you unite with Me and become one in Me and let Me love from your being? I call you to love. Love, love, love! Always love! Do not let Satan talk in your heads, My dear ones. Do not listen to words that cause division with any man. Come to Me and I will fill you with My divine love.
6. Jesus: I will be with you forever and ever and ever. What have you to fear? Your job is to stay focused on Me, to remain in Me and with Me, to live as one in Me. My dear ones, do not be caught up in Satan's crafts, for he is the great deceiver. I give you this commandment: love God and love one another.
7. Jesus: I want this rosary to be in the third Blue Book.
8. Jesus: I give you, My dear ones, twenty-four hours in each day. Do you have time, time for the Almighty God Who remains on earth with you, no less present than the day that I walked on this earth? Are you too busy for God when I command you to love Me with your whole heart, your whole soul and your whole being? Do you, in your willfulness, go about your way and say, "I am too busy. I will give to you, God, as I feel I can?" I tell you, you are to love God with your whole heart, your whole soul and your whole being and give to Him first. Then all else will work. Man has made other things his gods. I am the Almighty God! There is one God! It is only in living according to the Father's Will that you will have peace and joy in your hearts. Let go, surrender, and you will be raised to such heights in My love.
9. Jesus: I fill your souls with My life when you come to Me in the Eucharist and sit in front of the tabernacle. You are raised and elevated to wondrous heights in this life. As the hot air balloon is lifted high above the houses, you, too, will be lifted above the confusion, the deception and the anger that is now pressing down on this earth. It is only in your total surrender that you will receive this freedom.
   Song: Come unto Me, all who are weary, and find rest for your soul. Come unto Me, all who are burdened. I will comfort you.
10. Jesus: I give to you this mission to carry out My love to this world. I ascended into Heaven. I left My apostles behind. I give to you this mission to go out to the world and, in your being, in your speech, in your lives, to relive My life, death and resurrection. I came, I showed you the way. I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, My dear ones. It is in following My Will that you will have peace, joy and love in your hearts.
    Song: I give you a new commandment, love one another as I have loved you.
    Song between decades: Come, Holy Spirit, fill our hearts…

The Descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles and Mary

1. Jesus: I give to you the fire of My love, this burning Heart filled with My love for the souls for whom I gave My life. The Father so loved this world that He sent His only begotten Son into this world that men would be saved. I am Jesus and I speak to you in this rosary and all the rosaries that I have given to you at this Center. My Heart is on fire and burning for the love of My souls in this world this day. I beg you to spread this message to a world that is suffering and in pain. I give to you this day My love on fire for all souls.
2. R. Before Jesus ascended into heaven, He said that John had baptized with water, but that not many days from now He would send the Spirit to baptize them. He ascended into heaven and He left the apostles behind to carry out His work. Peter He made head of the Church. Peter, who denied Him, was made head of His Church! Now the apostles and the Blessed Virgin gathered in the Upper Room, praying and awaiting the promised Holy Spirit.
3. R. There occurred a roar like an enormous wind and there appeared over their heads parted tongues of fire. The Holy Spirit descended upon them and they were filled with the Holy Spirit. They went out to preach the Gospel.
4. R. Their hearts were transformed from fear to fearlessness for they knew that the Almighty God was alive, alive in their hearts, alive in the Eucharist! Jesus ascended into heaven but He gave us the great gift of the Holy Eucharist, where He remains in His divinity and His humanity. He sent the Holy Spirit upon the apostles, and they went into the world and preached the Gospel, healing the sick. They were not afraid.
5. R. They traveled from town to town preaching the Good News. Five thousand were converted here and five thousand were converted there. Today we are being called, commissioned through baptism, to go out into this world and preach the Good News. Dear Holy Spirit, descend upon us. Fill us with fearlessness to preach the greatest message there is: Jesus has died, He is risen, He will come again and He lives this day! He lives in the Holy Eucharist. He lives in our hearts. Let us be alive and penetrated deeply and saturated with this life of the Almighty God and let us respond to His love as the Father has planned for us to do.
6. Song: I come to you with greatest love, I am your loving Savior. I am your God, I died for you. I come to you this day.
   R. He gives to us His life in baptism and He feeds this life this day with His very flesh and blood and He nurtures us with His Word.
7. R. To hear the Word of God is to be filled with His life, for it is the living Word of God! To receive Him in the Eucharist is life! He says to us, "I am the Bread of Life. He who believes will never die." What have we to fear? If we stay rooted in Him, we will never die!
8. Song: Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest, and in our hearts take up Thy rest. Come with Thy grace and heavenly aid, to fill the hearts which Thou hast made, to fill the hearts which Thou hast made.
9. R. He gives to us His life and we are filled with this vibrancy and force within us. His love is an active force. It is not inactive, dry or sterile. His life, saturating our being, is a force too mighty to be contained. Let us have this life within our being so that every prayer we pray as we celebrate the Mass will fill our hearts with the love of God. His love will radiate from our whole being as we partake in this Sacrifice.
10. R. Let us offer ourselves in the Mass with Jesus Christ, to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, with Mary our Mother at our side, and with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory. Let us offer our whole being to God and ask to be transformed more and more into the image of Jesus, our Savior. Let us realize more fully the great gifts that we are given by God in the Mass, in the Eucharist. Let us know the Father's love. Let our hearts sing as we celebrate the Mass with the priest. Let our hearts sing with highest jubilation and cry out with praise and thanksgiving to the Almighty God. Let us stand under the cross with Mary on Calvary. Let us be there and partake as priest, prophet and king, with the priest and Christ in every Mass. Thank you, thank you, dear God for these gifts given to us.

    Song between decades: Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow. Praise Him, all creatures here below. Praise Him above ye Heavenly Hosts. Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Amen.

The Assumption of Mary Into Heaven

1. R. Mary is taken, body and soul, into heaven. Mary, our model! These rosaries are the lives of Jesus and Mary. It is in meditating on these rosaries that we will know more of the mysteries of their lives, that we will be able to more closely follow and model our lives after Jesus and Mary. Can those with whom we come in contact say that they see the Christ that lives within us? Are we modeling our lives after Their lives? Look within! Do we project to those with whom we come in contact all the virtues of Jesus and Mary? Are we anxious or are we patient? Are we loving or are we short? Are we looking at our brothers with eyes filled with love or are we looking at our brothers with eyes that criticize? How are our hearts? Are our hearts filled with love or filled with judgment? Who are we to judge our brothers created by our Father with uniqueness, dignity and love? Do we see that our brothers are creations of God the Father? Do we know in our hearts that each person was created in the image and likeness of God or do we judge our brother, look harshly at him and criticize him? Are we modeling our lives after Jesus and Mary? Are we meditating on Their lives in the mysteries of the rosary?
2. R. As Jesus was formed in the womb of His Mother through the Holy Spirit, we, too, are formed in the Heart of Mary through the Holy Spirit to be more like Jesus. Dear Mary, help us to be more like your Son. Help us to model our lives after your pure and tender Heart. Let our hearts be placed in your Heart, Mary. Let us dwell there, Mary, for your Heart dwells completely in the Heart of Jesus.
3. R. Oneness in our being with the Almighty God! Let our goal be to become saints of God. Let us strive for highest holiness but realize our imperfections, not dwell on these but strive ever harder to be more perfect as our Heavenly Father is perfect.
4. R. O blessed and beautiful Virgin Mary, Heart most tender and pure, I see surrounding you the celestial light adorned with a pink hue. You, my beloved Mother, mother each one of us so that we may be more and more like your most precious Son, Jesus Christ.
5. R. It is Mary who places us in the innermost sanctuary of the Heart of Jesus.
6. R. O Virgin Mary, adorned in a pinkish celestial light, surround us with the light of the Almighty God. Dear Jesus, penetrate our souls with Your light so that we may feel this light radiating from our being and raising us to such heights, that we may realize the great gifts that we are given on this earth, that we may realize that these are not gifts primarily focused on this world, that we may realize that the gifts to be treasured most dearly are the gifts pertaining to the Almighty God.
7. R. As Jesus ascended into heaven to prepare a place for us He left behind the Virgin Mary. She remains with us this day as our spiritual Mother, mothering us and leading us on our journey to our true home in heaven.
8. R. Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit, transform our hearts and fill us with the fire of God's love. Work in the Heart of Your spouse, the Virgin Mary, that we may be more like Jesus and ever closer to the Father.
9. R. How perfectly Mary dwells in the Heart of her Son!
10. R. She spreads her protective mantle over her dear children and they are filled with her motherly grace.

    Mother of Grace! Mother of Wisdom! Mother of Counsel! Mother of Understanding! Mother of our Creator! Mother us and lead us closer to our eternal life through your Son, Jesus, our beloved Savior.

    Song between decades: Ave, ave, ave, Maria. Ave, ave, ave, Maria.

Mary Is Crowned Queen of Heaven and Earth

1. R. See our hearts adorned with white eyelet ribbon, tied and secured, placed entirely within the Heart of the Virgin Mary. See her Heart resting and dwelling in the Heart of her Son. Such security to feel our hearts closed with ribbon and resting in her Heart, and hers in His.
2. R. The gift we give is the gift of our hearts, adorned with this beautiful ribbon and consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. This is the package of our love. We give to you, wholly and completely, our hearts to dwell within your Heart and the Heart of your Son.
3. R. We consecrate ourselves, our whole beings, to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
4. R. The Hearts of greatest love: her Heart pierced with a sword, His Heart pierced with a lance, Hearts filled with immense love for all men.
5. R. See Mary as the angel comes to her and asks her to be the Mother of God. In compliance with the Father's Will, she says, "You see before you the Lord’s servant, let it happen to me as you have said." (Luke 1: 38) All through the lives of Jesus and Mary we see the reflection of Their compliance with His Will. Surrender and love, peace and joy! Mary-her Heart was pierced with a sword. Jesus-His Heart was pierced with a lance. To His death on the cross, He complied with the Father's Will, always in peace. Mary is now crowned with a golden crown, the glory of all heaven and earth! Queen! Queen of heaven and earth! The Father has a plan for each one of us. When we were born, He gave us talents to carry out this plan, each talent given in greatest love for us: the gift to sing, the gift to speak, the gift to write. All of these gifts were handpicked by the Father so that we could carry out His plan, so that we could carry on the work that Jesus had begun on this earth. It is in accordance with this plan that our peace and joy lie and we, too, will be crowned with a crown of glory in heaven. Jesus ascended into heaven to prepare a place for us. Our greatest fear is to be separated from God. This is our only fear. To live in Him is to live! There is no need to fear if we are living in Him.
6. Song: Eye has not seen, ear has not heard, what God has ready for those who love Him. Spirit of love, come give us the mind of Jesus. Teach us the wisdom of God.
   Jesus: I give you a new commandment: love one another as I have loved you.
7. R. The heavens are opened and man goes to his final destination, all of the tears and worries of this earth left behind. He sees before him the glories of heaven. The kingdom of God is at hand and it is within. 
   Jesus: My dear ones, open wide your hearts and let Me penetrate deeply. Let Me fill you with My love and you will know that the kingdom of God lives within.
8. Jesus: I give you the beautiful trees, the birds of the air. I give you far greater gifts, My dear ones. Many look at this world with dark colored glasses. I give you My life! Open up your eyes and pray for vision to see those gifts I am giving to you this day. Let your hearts be filled with joy, for I live! I live in this world this day! I never abandon you! Father, Son and Holy Spirit live within your heart when you are in the state of grace. What have you to fear when the Almighty God lives within you. Alleluia. Alleluia. Alleluia. Their eyes were opened and their tongues were loosed and they proceeded throughout their lives, forever declaring the works of the Lord. Alleluia.
9. Jesus: I give to you the gift of your tongue, the tongue upon which you receive the Almighty God. My dear ones, use your tongue to sing the praise of the Almighty God Who comes and is received on this tongue. If I come to you on your tongue, how can you with your tongue, sin? My dear ones, guard your tongue as the entryway to your soul. As a man is in his heart, so shall he be to this world. I give you a new commandment: love God with your whole heart, your whole soul and your whole being, and love your neighbor as yourself. Do not speak harshly against your brother. Do not talk about your brothers for they were created by My Father and redeemed by My Blood. They are precious to Me. Who are you that you can judge these little ones? Judging is not up to you. Loving is what you are commanded to do.
10. Jesus: I am the Sacred Heart, on fire for love of men. I came to this earth, suffered, died and rose on the third day to bring you life. The kingdom of God is within you, My dear ones. Guard your tongue. May your hearts be ever pure. May your hearts be filled with love. May you silence Satan in your heads for he aims to trip you and rob you of your joy. Satan wants to take the life from within you. Let go, surrender and trust for you are guarded far more than the finest pearls. You are watched and protected by the Almighty God Who lives in this world this day.

    Song: Come unto Me, all who are weary, and find rest in your soul. Come unto Me, all who are burdened. I will comfort thee.

    Jesus: Love one another as I have loved you.
    
    Song after the last decade: Praise God from Whom all blessings flow. Praise Him all creatures here below. Praise Him above ye Heavenly Hosts. Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Amen.
