Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[The Lord speaks.....]
There is great value in coming off to
be with Me. But while you are here, what is accomplished? Is the
jumble in your heart reduced? Can you give to Me your own ordinary
needs: your hunger, your thirst, your distraction? And when I have
fed you and you go your way, what of Me remains with you? As nature passes
through your beings, so too does My Word?.....Or do My Words linger and
grow and nourish your souls, because YOU have allowed ME to become a part of
your being?
See, lambs, that if you are not truly
following Me with your heart, our relationship shall soon enough dwindle.....not
because of Me, but because YOU have reserved yourself from ME! See?
You cannot preach what you do not truly believe; and you do not truly believe if
you do not live within your belief. Recall that tepidness is very
dangerous. It is far better to be hot OR cold, for from one perspective
you may grow, while in the other you may increase in desire for what you have
come to realize you do not have. If YOUR foundation is faulty or
immaturely set, it will not support structure for long. It is for this
reason that I tell you that all New Life in Me should be nurtured to bring you
into a True Life in Me in My Church. If you are truly maturing in Me, you
will find that the foundation upon which you are set is My Church.....in ALL
things. If you maintain a thought aside of Me, My Church, then you
jeopardize your own foundation: you begin to sit yourself elsewhere, where
you shall crumble and fall. I speak of this often, My lambs, to
encourage you to examine your hearts. What do you maintain in YOUR life
which would not, does not, fit into MINE?
My children, hear Me speak:
Truth is Truth. But it is for you to accept it, or not. Teaching
declared by My Church is Teaching declared by Me. Obedience means
obedience in all things. So I ask you now: What do you truly
believe? Who do you truly believe? Measure all you come to believe
by the Teaching of My Church. Then, your system of belief will be firmly
grounded on Me. Flippant thought is not necessarily Teaching; casual
comment, the same. By Teaching Authority of My Church I mean exactly what
I say. Your belief must come to be in Her, My Church, so that your belief
will be truly in Me. Shall I speak more plainly? Adhere to the
Teachings of My Peter of Rome, My Pope, now John Paul II. Adhere to all
teaching coming to you from him for when it does, it is in union with My Bishops
who I have given to you to teach you with the Truth of My Church by the Spirit
of God. I ask you not to be flippant in this regard, little
ones. I ask you because I am your Good Shepherd and when I lift you, it is
to place you into your Mother's Arms: My Church. For you to be
elsewhere intentionally, is to resist Me. For I have, have I not, called
you each into Unity in Me?
And so.....I feed you My Truth.
Will you receive it as the Life-Giving Food which it is? Or will you let
it pass? Amen. +
(Acts 5:34-42; Ps. 27:1, 4, 13-14; Jn.
6:1-15)
With Love, in the Two Hearts,
His Sarah
