Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,

[Jesus speaks.....]
Now it begins!  Another season of repentance!   Come, be marked with the sign of your fragile nature.  From dust.....to dust.  But what happens in between marks the eternity of your soul.  No room for ashes here, only Truth.

Repentance should be yours every day.  But My Church, in Her Wisdom, gifts to you the finest of gifts:  the Liturgical Seasons.....And so now, Lent.  What you do with your time marks your Eternity in Me:  Heaven or hell.  Everything is about your Purification in Me.  And if it is refused, you chance the eternal fires of hell.  By your own choice.  By YOUR own making.  For *I* made you to know, Love and serve Me that we would be together forever in MY Home.  Those who choose hell make a home, as it were, as a bride leaves here family.  But to go into hell is to leave the Bridegroom  of your soul for the father of lies, the spirit of destruction.

NOW is your time, your opportunity to repent.  NOW is your time to be, once and for all, in Me.  NOW is your time to work as I have worked, in your presence.  Acts of Love.   Deeds of Charity.  Words of Truth.   Life of Truth.  No misdeeds.  And for you, to receive the very Grace of repentance for which I have come.

To be in Me:  sinless.  To be in Me:  spotless.  To be in Me while you are in the world.  That forever, you will dwell in My Home.  Let ME be the Bridegroom you follow all the Day.  Come, and spend time in Me in the quiet of your heart.  Let them look at your outside and see something of your inside......ME!  Let Me walk in your midst within your own heart!  Let the Journey begin.....again.  Let your footsteps be in Mine.....now.  Do not leave Me.   Stay.   Remain.  In Me.  Now and forever.  Amen.    †
