Dear Friends in Christ,
Thank you for your interest in 'Alan Ames Ministry,' we hope
you will continue to pray for it's success in doing God's will.
Recently Alan visited Kenya at the invitation of Archbishop
Kirima. Many people came to his talks and by the grace of God,
healings, conversions and strengthening of faith occurred. Here
is a comment from the Archbishop:
'You (Alan) came to us and leaving us you remained with us spiritually.
You brought us many gifts of God. They are perfecting our people.
We are doing a follow up to ensure the Lord will reap a rich
harvest.'
In 1999 Alan will return to Kenya and will have 'Through the
Eyes of Jesus,' Volume 1 printed in Swahili. This year Alan
will talk in the USA, UK, Ireland, Germany, South Africa, the
Phillipines and Australia. 'Through the Eyes of Jesus,' has
been printed in German,Portuguese and Russian and will soon
be in Spanish, Swahili and Korean.
'Messages to Carver Alan Ames' is to be published in German,
Portugese and Spanish. 'The Way of Hope'is to be published in
Portugese and Spanish. A new book in English 'Heaven Speaks'
has been printed and contains messages from more than eighty
saints and three archangels.
Alan thanks God for all the wonderful gifts he has been given
and reminds people that God deserves glory, thanks and praise
for His generous love. It is important that God is the focus
of our lives and not the vessels that He uses. Sometimes people
believe that those gifted by God are holier than others or loved
more by God. This Alan says is not the case at all as God loves
us all equally and any holiness in Alan's life is only there
by the grace of God. Alan would like to express his appreciation
to all those who help organise his speaking engagements and
hopes they understand that it is also by their efforts many
are touched by God's forgiving love.
Here are some messages from the book 'Heaven Speaks'.

The Saints Speak
|
St.Alphonsus Liguori
Immaculate Mary, a title given by God.
Immaculate Mary, a title that tells the truth.
Immaculate Mary, a title that shows God's mercy.
It would only be through a vessel
that was pure and without sin,
that the Son of God would come to earth,
for the Son of God is pure and without sin,
so how would He be born through a vessel
with the slightest sin in its being?
In His mercy God created the mother of His Son,
sinless and pure so that the truth would come
to the world through God's creation of love.
Reference:Baruch 4:29 So he will rescue you
and give you eternal joy. .
|
St.Bonaventure
The heart, The soul, The man.
It is what is in your soul that is
shown in your heart and then
you see the man.
Reference:Psalms 69:6 My faults are not hidden.
|
ST.Anthony Mary Claret
Never lose sight of the Sacraments and you will never lose
sight of God.
|
St.Bartholomew
To walk the road with Jesus was the
greatest blessing in my life. It can
be the same for all mankind if they
too choose to walk with Jesus.
Reference: John 12:35 Walk while you have the light so that
darkness may not overcome you.
|
St.Andrew
While the Lord lay in the tomb, I lay
wondering what would happen in the
future.
While the Lord lay there in peace, I
was in turmoil about what lay ahead.
While the Lord lay there soon to show
the world the truth, I lay there trying
to come to terms with the truth.
In those moments my weakness and
fears arose but soon they would be
defeated when the Lord rose and showed
the world the truth of God.
Reference: John 14:18 I will not leave you
orphan
I will come back to you.

St.Catherine of Sienna
To be obedient to the will of God is not stubbornness or
fanaticism, it is true love.
Reference: Psalms 119:129 Wonderful are
your decrees therefore I observe them.
|
St.Thomas the Apostle
When I doubted and did not trust or believe in the Lord my
heart was heavy.
When my Lord Jesus appeared to me I was sorry for doubting
and embarrassed
for what I had said. I saw then how weak I was, how easily
I could deny the
truth and how much I needed Jesus to guide me through this
life.
Most people are this way and all they need to understand is
that if they bow
down before the Lord and ask for His mercy and His help He
is there for them.
Jesus showed, when He forgave me my doubts, the depth of His
love.
Here I was, a man who had walked with Jesus, I had seen God's
miracles and
heard God's word and yet I still denied Him; I, who should
have known better.
My weaknesses were the same that all men have and Jesus in
His mercy showed
how He will help overcome them. All that is needed is to accept
Jesus as Lord
and to open your heart to His love.

"His book that he has printed, based on the life of Jesus,
through Jesus' eyes, is so moving, tender, powerful. I feel
very close to the heart of Jesus when I read it. It's warm,
touching and gives you a much greater understanding of our
Lord, the Apostles and that period of history. I'd recommend
it!"
J.A., Pittsburgh
"I have read all of his books, some of the most beautiful
messages from the Father, Our Lady, etc."

it off that day and haven't needed it since. It's so wonderful
to be pain-free." |
