Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,

[Jesus speaks.....]
There is no place so low in the nature of a man, that God cannot enter in.  But.....it is a matter of the man's looking up to recognize the power of God.   Children, I give to you, O, so many examples of tried and true Faith.  See in your own life where we have been together in this close, recognizable union.  See that every great moment in Faith is but an example of how life should be lived, wholly, completely, in Me!

You must pray, little ones, for Endurance, that you will be able to go the distance, reach the Mark of your Salvation, My Heaven.  Pray for an increase in Courage and Strength, that you would survive in the battles of life, those battles which would challenge your very Faith.  You are, afterall, either with Me or against Me.  Wavering in the middle is where most souls are lost.  For they know neither hot nor cold.  And in an effort to please self and all around them, they are lost forever in the fires of hell.  Yes.....lost forever.  Because despite what was interpreted as "charity" or "good life" by so many "peers" in fact, there was lived disobedience to My Way.  And disobedience to God has its ramifications, little ones.  Punishment, yes.  Because you invited it.  You disregarded My Way in preference for your own.

Did you think I came among you to talk and leave to you YOUR own way?  Did you not yet comprehend that I came to rectify mankind to God by calling you to a higher plane of Life in Me?  .....Beyond what the world determines as "good" in the wavering of middle ground?  Are you in a position of helping others to learn, to know, to decide?  Then be FIRM in your teaching, little ones.  Be hot or cold.  But force a decision from the middle, lest they be lost.

.....Now, I am not saying that there is no difference between Good and bad.  What I AM saying is that Good is Good and it is best recognized as Good from a life lived in Goodness.  For those who have chosen bad, perhaps Good will be better recognized because of its truly opposite nature to evil.  See?  There is more hope, then, for those who have declared their position in bad.  O!  ....But these who would waiver in the middle see neither good nor bad.....all becomes as a blur to them.....

If you recognize My Goodness, then pursue Me.  I not only allow your pursuit, I ENCOURAGE you, I AWAIT you.  I have LONGED for you for all time!  And if you have chosen to travel to bad, I shall burn all the Brighter, that you would come to see Me clearly this time.

But, do not turn your back on Me and still pretend to others that  you know Me.  With YOU  I  will deal accordingly!  I am FIRM in this, children!  Faith is a mark upon your soul which calls you to a higher plane in Me.  For you to continue to heed the sirens of the world, to entertain them and to hide Truth, is a VERY grievous offense!   For you have not only chosen to harm, perhaps lose, your OWN soul, but all of those are so severely damaged around you.....perhaps even.....lost.  O!  The  GUILT!

.....Yet, My Sorrow for you.  Yet, My waiting for your repentant heart.  .....Yet, you.....and I....How I LONG for this moment!

Believe in Me.  Remain in Me.  Pursue a True Life in Me.  By My Hand.....and yours, within it.  Freely given.  Freely learned.  Freely lived.  Freely Loved.  Amen.  Now, and forever.  In Me.   Amen.  No heart is so hard that it cannot be melted by My Love.  No eyes are so blind that they cannot see Me, My Splendour.  All Grace for you to be at My Side is yours.  It is for you to use it.  I pray that you do.  Now.  For My Heart awaits your own.

C-H-I-L-D.....do you understand Me?  I  L-O-V-E you!  I do!  Amen.    †
