Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[Jesus speaks.....] Where is your heart in the Words that I give? How attentive are you to the needs I set before you? Are you willing to die to self to better serve Me? Are you willing to die to self to better follow Me? All to which you cling is for naught if in fact, it causes your division from Me!
To follow Me is to produce Good fruit, that you and those around you might benefit by the service you render to Me. What is the fruit.....the quality of the fruit who you are? Will the seed within you bear more Good fruit? Are you willing to become more and more, a part of the process in Me? Are you willing, more and more, to become reduced for My Sake?
Where is your heart in Me? Where is your heart in the actions you perform? Are you willing to be weak, that I might be your strength? Are you willing to be strong because you are one in Me? If you look like fruit, is your seed worth reproducing......the actions you would perform which will touch those around you? Will your seed bear new fruit? Will you.....do you.....build up My Kingdom, or do you tear it down? Have you truly looked around you to see what you have done? To see what you are doing? What you do to the least, you do unto Me. What you do to YOURSELF you do unto Me!
If you lend of yourself, aside of Me, you lend worthlessly, you lend badly. I have made you to be who you are in My Body! Therefore, who you are to those around you is part of My Will. But I say to you: Do no more and no less than I have made you to be. Otherwise, the seed who you are......the fruit which you bear is weak and of little value to The Body. Do not be led astray, for within a body, that which is waste is passed through and excreted because its value no longer has worth.
I call you to be IN Me: seed as I would have you bear it; fruit as I would have you be it; servant as I would have you serve. Let what you lend to The Body be precisely what I had intended for you to lend. No more. No less.
But, if you are willing.....as putty in My Hands, as clay upon the potter’s wheel.....then.....eventually, if not now, something worthwhile will grow from your dying to self for My Sake. Remain in Me. Be in Me. Share yourself with Me. And let ME share YOU with all around us. Fruit.....seed.....servant. Freely, willingly being and dying to self for the Sake of The Body! By MY Will.....and yours in Mine. Amen. +
