Your Grace,
Recently, we have seen in the news that the situation is looking worse for the Church.  Also, the number of people attending Mass is declining rapidly.  Without bingo, it seems impossible to survive.  Please learn to listen instead of being angry and throwing those who voice their opinions out the door.

It is time now to recognize a gift from God.  It is time to listen from the Spirit, not from man.  It looks worse now, but remember, after He died, Jesus said, “Don’t cry for Me, cry for yourselves and your children.”

He knew they would always cry – the mothers, the fathers and the children – and that the fighting would get worse.  But He says not to be blind anymore.

Bishop, I thank you so much for giving your life to serve.  I know that you gave up your life because you recognized love and you realized the sacredness and importance of a priest and a bishop.  Don’t be blind.  When Jesus was alive (and is still living today), He washed the feet of those He loved.  This was sacred to recognize God.  Now we realize that it means that a priest or a bishop loves us too.  You wash our feet, you love us and you give up your life for all of us.

Today, please don’t be blind.  We first recognize that everything looks terrible but God is so powerful that we know He cannot be stupid.  It is very important for people to understand something now.  The Church has said that it is alright for people to “use” each other in their marriage relationships.  But if we remember the champion horses, we learn that they must not overuse themselves at all, or they lose their strength and are no longer champions. 

We have been taught through a parable about a farmer who wondered about the weeds in his garden.  “What can I do about them?” he asked.  “Leave them alone,” he was told, “until they get bigger and stronger.  Then, when you see the difference between them and the good plants, you can pull them out.”

It is time now to recognize that the strong ones have survived with just about nothing.  However, now you are truly the strong ones, because you believe and the weak ones will lose everything.  Continue.  One only is good enough to change the world.

Why is a new baby so powerful?  Why does a newborn mean so much?  Why is he or she more wonderful than even the Mass, for a lot of people?  For some who marry, it is the same thing.  The marriage is more powerful than the Mass.  Even the ones who died – their funerals can be more powerful than the Mass for some. 

Do you realize how sacred it is to be there together?  Even with the baptism of a new baby, there are five people there to sign the document to change their lives for the well-being of the newborn.  It is sacred – not only to sign the document – but to be there for the child. 

To me, a priest is truly sacred – a true father.  He can teach the young about washing feet – to love them.  Once, I asked a priest, “Why did you become a priest?”  He said, “You know, Roger, only God could be with me because I don’t trust anyone.”

Don’t forget this:  only a priest is truly a father.  Only then.  How sacred it is to be a father-virgin.  Isn’t it beautiful?  A true priest or bishop are both fathers and sacred.  You are virgins.  How blessed you are that children go to see you, the fathers, and say, “Teach me, my Father, because you know how to love, my Father.” 

Today, I ask people not to be blind anymore. It is the time of the harvest.  Recognize how sacred it is.   We thank you to continue with all of us.  It is time for the priests to recognize that the Father is with you.  The miracle exists already.  We can prove what we say.  A true priest is sacred.  The priests do not need to be scared.  The times are terrible but the Spirit said to me, all the people are fighting now, and they forget to sin in the flesh.  They have a great desire to change their lives. 

It is time to recognize the sacredness in the mother who loves from the heart.  She is a mother more than a woman who only wants to use her body.  Imagine – true love is there to change the world.  God is there to change the world.

People need to see now that the strong ones that remain can be priests.  The priests of before used to think that they were tough.  That is why many people don’t believe in God anymore.  But now the true priests continue to learn and will be more powerful.  But please don’t forget when Jesus said, “At the end of the world, people won’t believe anymore.  There will be weakness and sinning and it will look more powerful than the good.” 

Only a true priest can continue to survive.  What is so sacred for the priest is that he sees that with a newborn, a marriage or a death, all people together recognize the sacred in them.  Don’t forget that Jesus said, “You must learn from My Father – not only the words from the Book.  Do not eat His food like it was nothing.”  When Jesus closed the Book, He said, “You know who I Am because I Am truly love in your heart.  It is sacred and living because My Father and I are one.”

The priests have become married with God for the world.  Jesus said, “My Father, without You, My Father, I can do nothing, but I give My life to You.  Teach Me to be like You to recognize love and to share, because You are truly living.” 

It is time for fathers, like a priest or a bishop, to recognize love.  I love you my Father.  You suffer because of the past yet you continue to give your life, whether you like it or not, because you love God.  The Mass is more powerful than you think, as is Adoration.  We have both the Mass and Adoration.  What does it mean?  It is so sacred.  If you see hungry people and you give them food, you look like a miracle to them because you have allowed them to survive.  How sacred it is.  But there is something more important yet. 

Jesus appeared as a farmer outside His tomb and asked the woman why she was crying.  Why did He look like a farmer?  Everyday God makes sure that people survive.  He is like the Farmer that feeds the people.  Without food, we die, even though a bit of food can be in our body for three days, giving us nourishment to sustain us. Even the dead cannot be buried for three days.  How sacred are these understandings. So, at some point, we may find ourselves saying, “My Father, I am not worthy to continue living, but teach me how sacred it is to survive with the rest of humanity.  And my Father, like the Eucharist, you are so sacred. Within it, you reveal the light, the dark, water, food and all things beautiful in creation.  My God, You ensure that we are given all of this.  My Father, I adore you.  Teach me to share with all of the people.  My Father, never forget who I am.”

Today, we say thank you for being a true Father – more than you might have thought you were.  You gave up your life to be a father.  We thank you and pray for all of those who made mistakes in the past.  You will make becoming saints a normal thing.  With love, everything has meaning.  Teach love.  Share.  It will be normal for all to change their lives.  I just love you.

Congratulations.  Continue.
