#599 - ST. THERESA, THE LITTLE FLOWER
"But Jesus, calling them together, said: Suffer children to come to me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Amen, I say to you: Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a child, shall not enter into it." - St. Luke 18:16-17
"WHAT IS A
PRIEST?"
"What is a priest? A priest is a man of God, a soul chosen
from the multitudes to bring to the many children of God, the message of the
divine Kingdom to come, to advance the cause for human dedication to the
Divine Spirit, and lay out the narrow path that will lead to everlasting
fulfillment. For this great honor, a man must be dedicated in spirit, in the
sense that he be willing to live in mind and body in this world, but that
precious hidden self, the spirit, must be within the Divine claim. This
state is produced only through sincere love of God, a willingness to place
the many pleasures and material things of our human environment second, next
to the nourishment by sacrifice, through self-denial and will, subjugated to
the will of God. One as a teacher of the truth must be able to place the
full emotions and purpose of being within the spiritual plane." -
St. Theresa, September 7, 1969
"THE REALITY OF
HEAVEN"
"The distant Kingdom is inhabited by people, live people, in
spirit form. Awaken all people of the earth to the reality of Heaven, for to
know them is to love them." -
MANY ARE DIRECT
AGENTS OF HELL
"As in the time
of
"Parents must guard their children, even from their teachers. Many
are now direct agents of hell, though they walk in human bodies. Protect
your children with their sacramentals. Teach them!" -
"JOIN ME"
"I am Theresa of the Infant Jesus. I sought not the riches of this world,
but hid myself with poverty of body but richness of spirit. I found in my
obscurity a far greater glory in the light from Heaven.
"Follow my little way.
Join me here in this glorious Kingdom. How worthless the things of the world
when placed next to the glories of Heaven." - St. Theresa, October 2,
1970
SECRET TO
PIETY
St. Theresa - "Use the little way. Be simple of heart and thought and
speech. For you must be different to come over the veil, my sister. Accept
all trials. Use them for the repatriation of your brothers and sisters in
purgatory. You will understand, Veronica, my sister, that soon you will look
forward to receiving these little aggravations, for you are then given the
opportunity to save more souls, my sister. You will understand.
"Graces are given in the
most strange ways, my sister. You will learn to love adversity, for it is
the secret to piety."
Veronica - I don't know if I repeated it, but it's very fresh in my mind
that Saint Theresa has said that we should accept all adversity. We should
look forward to even minor irritations, for they can be used as a point of
grace, to receive grace that can be transferred to the suffering souls in
purgatory. I understand that Theresa made it known to me that it is
something that you will understand in time with practice. It is a simple way
to Heaven. And Theresa also said now tonight and before, in the past, that
you must be quite simple, childlike, in your approach to the world and on
your way to Heaven, with the confidence of a child and a trust in the
Father, accepting all in the will of God, giving your whole soul and human
life into the will of God, accepting the Eternal Father as your guide as you
would in a loving father.
Theresa says there is no
reason to fear the Father in Heaven, for He is all-loving. All punishment
that is given to mankind has been indirectly willed by mankind. He has made
his own punishment because he has turned away from the direction, from the
direction from God the Father. It is a form of just chastisement and
cleansing; for over the veil you must be as pure and holy as an angel to
enter the eternal
HUMBLE LESSON
"I have come to give you a humble lesson, a lesson on the little ways of
attaining your sanctification on earth, so you will be certain to enter the
Kingdom. As you live your human life upon the earth, you will say to
yourself, 'am I pleasing my Jesus?'
"Many must earn their
daily bread. All must earn their daily bread upon the earth. In doing this
they will do this with honor. Of the hours you awaken to, you will say,
'this day I give to please my God.' In this manner you will be directed in
the light.
"You have all received
in your baptism the opportunity to attain the Kingdom. The road is very
simple to follow. You do not look for recognition among men. You look to
please your God. You try to please your God. For if you try to find
recognition and the approval of man on earth, you are doomed to great
sorrow. For all the hours, the waking hours of your life on earth must be
with one purpose in mind-that you are working your way back to the Kingdom."
- St. Theresa, December 31, 1972
CONTINUE WITH CONFIDENCE
"I know, My child, that you have found the cross growing heavy, but We place
great dependence and confidence upon you. The Father knows your great love
for Him. Therefore, you will continue with confidence. We cannot promise you
a life without suffering, for graces are not earned easily, My child, though
they are given freely. However, you will follow the direction of your
sister, Theresa, who has taught you her little way of gaining Heaven through
suffering.
"My child, make it known
that no suffering is ever wasted, for there are graces following behind
these crucibles." - Our Lady, June 8, 1973
TRUE LOVE
"Listen carefully, Veronica, to my words.
"I gave my life upon
earth as a child. My little way was a way of love. True love seeks no
self-gratification, but the well-being of the beloved. It is only in giving
that you shall receive.
"All must now retire
from your world that has been given to satan. You will not have both. You
must now pick up the cross and carry it. Only in this way will you stay on
the road. It is a narrow road, and when you leave, it is difficult to find
the way back.
"The direction to the
Kingdom has been given to you all the duration of life on your earth. It is
a simple plan of love. You do not offend and hurt those you love; so why
have you chosen to offend and hurt Jesus and our Mother, Mary?" - St.
Theresa, March 25, 1973
LITTLE WAY TO SANCTITY
"Prayer has given way to worldly pleasure. My sisters, you are truly foolish
maidens. You have given yourselves as brides of Christ. A bride does not
commit adultery in her heart. When you reject the Son of God, you truly
commit this in your heart. The spirit has no part of the flesh. You must
live in the spirit and fight the pleasures of the flesh. For these pleasures
are not being used in the manner given by the Father.
"Chastity and
poverty, these are given for reason. Do not discard this little way to
sanctity." - St. Theresa, September 28, 1974
ST. THERESA'S
SISTER, CELINE
Veronica - Now
Our Lady is being joined by a . . . oh, a large group of nuns. I can see
them. Now three of them are behind, I know, Theresa. Theresa is standing
right by Our Lady. Oh, she's smiling, and now she's pointing back to the
shoes. Is it the shoes?
The three nuns behind her have on black shoes, black stockings, and
then their skirts are very long--down to the ankles, just about, almost
covering their shoes.
And now I can see their habits so very, very brightly. They're
illuminated so I can see they have on a very full, voluminous skirt, black,
and a belt about their skirt, and the Rosary hangs from their right side
down.
The
Rosaries are very large. They're black. And they have on now a cloak. The
cloak they're wearing is pushed back from their habits, but it's like a--not
white, but a beige color, the cloaks, and they're clipped at the neck. And
now they have also a veil. I can't see their hair. Their hair is completely
hidden, and the veil comes down over the forehead and has a white band under
the black veil. And I can see they have pins in their headpiece because they
have like little black, pearl-like pins. And now one of the nuns is taking
one out to show me. Oh, it's like a hatpin, a long hatpin, with black round
blobs on the end, sort of like a little round, pearl-like black end, very
tiny.
And
now she's reaching up and she's sort of sticking it into her headpiece
again, her veil. And she's smiling.
St. Theresa - "Celine."
Veronica -
Celine? One of the girls is named Celine. And now Theresa said:
St.
Theresa - "My sister."
Veronica - Her sister. And now Theresa is saying:
St. Theresa - "The women and the young girls must find more healthy
pursuits. They do not use their time wisely, for they are out in the world
seeking, but finding satan. They are misled." - October 2, 1974
"SPIRITUAL CHILDHOOD"
Veronica - On August
19th, 1969, Theresa dictated to me a poem-message, which is to be called
"Spiritual Childhood". And she also told me that this is the feeling
expressed when talking with Jesus.
What can I do but just love You,
For my riches
are here in my heart;
They are not locked or chained against stealing,
They’re always free to depart.
I offer this gift to You, Jesus,
Accept
it with Your blessed joy.
I’m Yours to hold there in Your Kingdom;
Just treat me as Your little toy!
"TOMORROW MY
BRIDEGROOM"
Veronica - On August 30th, 1968, St. Theresa dictated to
me another message that was to be given to all the Carmels of the world—that
would refer to the Carmelite nuns and their vows as brides of Christ.
Theresa said this is to be called "Tomorrow My Bridegroom".
They try to tell me, Jesus,
That You were never
here;
I listened to them sadly,
And know You will appear.
But when
that day of judgment
Comes in with fleeting time,
I’ll nod and face
them gladly,
For Heaven will be mine.
I ask them just to listen,
To
hearken as I say,
That Jesus loves His children,
And wants us all to
pray.
I haven’t anything to show,
My heart was always true;
I only
try to save your soul
In everything I do.
I cast my eyes to Heaven,
To guide me on my way;
The Cross I bear grows heavy
Every passing day.
I know You’re there beside me;
I feel Your presence near.
I wait and
pray that some day,
To me You will appear.
I’ll walk up through the
garden,
With roses in my hand,
And put my left hand out
To show you
there’s a band.
I’ve waited endless years
To see a dream come true:
I’ve loved and prayed,
And followed my heart
Until it led to You.
"TO A MIRACULOUS MOTHER"
Veronica - There was
another poem prayer-like message given to me, dictated by St. Theresa, and
it was called "To a Miraculous Mother".
Blessed Mother, be my guide!
Be there always by
my side!
Take me through this world of sorrow,
Show me there’s a
bright tomorrow!
"FAITHFUL AND TRUE"
Veronica - On November 9th,
1969, St. Theresa dictated to me a poem-message called “Faithful and True”.
And this is how it was written.
You look at your soul—
Lost it’s sparkle and zim;
And you can’t figure out
How old satan got in.
You check your
reserves—
Got to line up those graces
To rescue you fast
From those
dark, hidden places!
You shine up your armor
To fight once anew,
For our dear Holy Father
Cast aside by the few.
Your eyes are on
Heaven;
Your words are a prayer
To join the vast army
Of the folks
who still care.
We’ll raise up a banner
Called ‘Faithful and True’,
And show the whole world
What a true love can do!
"QUESTIONING HEART"
Given to Veronica on
December 5th, 1969:
Mary is crying!
I care do you?
Jesus is
bleeding anew,
And I care do you?
Do you every say “I love You”
He
cares for you—
Will you love Him till the end time?
There’s Heaven
then for you!
"I come this evening to ask my sisters who hear my message not to be taken
over by worldly pursuits. I agree fully with the nuns in the convents that
object to the television. No television should be in a holy place." - St.
Theresa, October 2, 1989
JESUS MADE THE
RULE
"Jesus the
Lord, your Lord, my sisters and brothers, has made the rule. You cannot
change it to suit yourselves. You have been blinded by satan. The liberation
in your hearts has been placed there by satan. You gain nothing but your own
destruction. Nuns, those who have accepted the rule and taken the habit,
must remain in the habit." - St. Theresa, October 2, 1975
DO NOT LEAVE
"Do not leave when you are discouraged by those who satan has sent into your
convents. Stand forth as an example of purity and godliness. You will not be
cast aside by your God, as you will by man, as you stand to defend your God.
Pick up your cross and carry it." - St. Theresa, November 20, 1972
ROSARY AT YOUR
SIDE
"We ask—and
it was given in the past, my sisters—that
you keep these beads of prayer at your side so that you do not waste a
moment of your earthly life, gathering the graces for your soul and the
souls entrusted to your care, your loved ones and your brothers and sisters
upon earth." - St. Theresa, September 28, 1974
HALF-HEARTED
VOCATIONS
"My sisters, you have paid no heed to my words. You are dressing yourselves
like pagans. The convents will be empty. Whatever shall we do for example?
You must not follow the modes of the world. My sisters, you have been
misled. Return to your habits. None will enter your convents with true
vocation with the example you set now upon yourselves and the world.
"Is it
because you have lost the love of your God? Do you not feel great honor for
the symbol of your being a true spouse of your God? Half-hearted vocations,
sinfulness within the convents! O woe, my sisters, whatever will become of
you now? Better that you wear the true habit and sign of dedication than to
burn in the fires of hell.
"You will not bring true postulants into the convents by your example
now. You walk in darkness, my sisters. Pray for the light, or your convents
will be closed. This is the plan of the enemy of God. You must take
yourselves from the world and worldly pursuits." - St. Theresa, September
13, 1973
"EXHORTATION"
Veronica - On July 8th, 1969, St. Theresa and Our Lady appeared in my
bedroom, and St. Theresa dictated to me a poem-message called "Exhortation".
Dear Holy Father, worried and wan
Will struggle with Jesus to gather the sheep.
The pastures are rich, but
the sheep grow thin,
For the souls have succumbed to the sickness of sin.
You’ll need reinforcements from heavenly shores;
So deep is the darkness
of earth’s shallow mores.
All hearts must ascend in true supplication
To avoid the sad fate of divine devastation.
Mary implores as a Mother of
love,
To listen and heed these dire words from above:
His heart is
torn from careless surrender
Of too many souls that won’t try to remember
The Father, the Son, the Spirit of Life—
Smite in the heart with the
human knife
Of hate, greed, avarice, vanity
All indications that sin
is insanity.
What more can We do but place the full load
Of saving all
souls on the few who are bold,
Who’ll stand up and fight for all Heaven’s
glory
And meet with Pope Paul at the end of life’s story.
A mission to the
On
April 10, 1993, Veronica Lueken wrote a letter to Vincent McDonnell, stating
that Our Lady wanted him to deliver two copies of the booklet
Occulations from Heaven (poem messages given to
Veronica from St. Theresa) into Pope John Paul II's hands, during Vincent's
upcoming visit to the
Vincent arrived for the General Audience in St.
Peter’s Square on April 23, 1993 and successfully delivered
Occulations from Heaven into the possession of Pope John
Paul II.
Vincent recounted his brief conversation with Pope
John Paul II. Vincent said, “Most Holy Father, Our Blessed Mother requests
that you take these two copies of Occulations
from Heaven by St. Theresa; you must read them. Please, Holy
Father, you must read them, especially page fifteen, Exhortation poem
by St. Theresa.” The Holy Father said, “Yes! Yes!” I insisted, “Holy
Father, your must read the booklets, especially page fifteen. Our Blessed
Mother wants you to read them.” The Pope said, “Yes! Yes! I will read
them.”
On Sunday, May 16,
1993 at 1:50 pm., Our Lady spoke to Veronica in locution: "
Four years later, on October 19, 1997, Pope John Paul II proclaimed St. Theresa a Doctor of the Church, one of only three women saints to have this distinction. Thus, Our Lady of the Roses' prediction came true.
