Be stirred into Flame by My Spirit. Let go of the little false gods which divide us.

In this moment of sharing, I shall share with you something quite important to the development of your hearts. I ask you to imagine a cold, stone, golden idol.....an object of false worship by so many gone before you. These idols are concocted by mankind, often with strict rules and guidelines for worshipping this "deity." Some among you continue this practice today with tools of false worship: stones, crystals and the like. You invent gods and goddesses who are not of Me. Some of you invent other forms of gods within you: by how you express yourself, by what you follow, by who you follow.....aside of Me. Think carefully upon these Words, My lambs.

Now I ask you to note that in the idolatry of false gods and false images, in the very subtle worship of self and matter, in the worship of how you say and what you do.....there is more consideration to obedience to self-imposed rule and regulation than there is to the interaction which *I* would give, to lift you up through one another into Me. *I* am a God, afterall, Who scoops you up into My Heart.....I cannot help Myself.....I long to be in you as I long for you to be in Me. There is nothing self satisfying about My Way. My Way always includes you. Yes, I long to be worshipped and adored, but from hearts freely seeking Me, hearts desiring to be scooped up to My Breast. No cold, stone idol am I. I am a God alive in Spirit. I am a God Who saves you from your sin. I am a God Who IS Love and Who LOVES you, My lambs.

Do you see the water become wine in the jugs at the wedding feast? [...ref. today's Gospel] This is as YOU, My lambs. Ordinary substance contained in ordinary substance. Waiting to be served that you might serve the purpose of the whole. Yet....as ordinary substance you have little effect. And so, *I* enter and stir your spirit to commingle you into Me, that in Me, you might better serve the whole. And so you see, My lambs, that I permit this to occur through the heart of My Mother. That by her Love for you and her Trust, her undying Trust in Me, you might be brought into a new Unity in Me because you are available and willing instruments of change of heart to serve the whole. My only demand of you is a willing spirit. But I ask you.....are you willing to let Me do with you as I Will? Or do you try to have Me abide by YOU and your demands for what My Will should be? Are you trusting, as is My Mother, that what I do, when I do it, AS I do it, is the best, is the Most Perfect?

And so, I DO Gift you each by your life in Me. And I, Who am the Law of Love lived out, invite you to join Me in Love lived so pure. I DO stir you into Love and relationship in Me. I DO Grace you with a True Life in Me. But a True Life in Me cannot be contained. No.....our Life must be shared, by the sheer Nature of the Life. And we must pour ourselves out, for Love cannot help Itself, little ones. If you are waiting, you are constricting your hearts! Let the Spirit of God stir you into Flame.....Flame of Love which is shared.....is "contagious" as it were. The Purpose of the Gifts of the Spirit is to lift you into Me. The Purpose of the Fruits of the Spirit is to allow your heart to grow to overfilling that you would touch all around you. Charism, My dear ones, is service to the community. If part is missing, then YOU are missing. Do not be an empty jar, My lambs. Do not withhold yourself from full Trust in Me. Know that to truly be in Me is to be willing to be shared with all.

As you grow in Perfection, know that *I* am Eternally Perfect. You shall never succeed Me in Perfection. But as you grow, I lift you to My Nostrils to smell the sweetness of your aroma. And I Love the Good AND the bad [...I understood the weak parts...] of you, for you are sinners and I am not. Yet.....it is the very nature of your humanity which attracts Me. And so, the motion continues! I lift you again and again, up from your current place in humanity. For I LOVE you, My lambs!

Why do you wait for Perfection, when I am here? Are you willing to serve as *I* have served? Are you willing to grow as I would nurture you? Would you deny your Lord the greatest Gift.....of your soul, whole and complete? Would you Love Me completely? Would you Love neighbor as self? Would you give your life for your friend? Would you open your heart to Me and allow Me to do as I Will? Do you trust Me this much? Might I stir your water into wine? Might you taste the Sweet Nectar of My Love? For no other nation has this been done, My lambs. I have done this for YOU. Because I Love you. Because I long for you.

O little ones! Break down the walls which divide us. Unity of hearts unto Me; not later, but NOW. Do not be concerned with your ordinariness, little ones. I can see how ordinary you are. But in ME, My people, you share in My Extra-ordinary Love. Be stirred into Flame by My Spirit. Let go of the little false gods which divide us. Be willing to enter the Trust of the Lord. Be willing to enter the Love of one another. Be willing to serve for My Sake. For we are one Body, My lambs. Many parts, but one Body. Are you willing?.....NOW? For later.....shall it be? Are YOU willing to do as I tell you? Do you Trust Me this much?
