Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[The Lord speaks.....]
These are the Words I impart to you
this day, My little ones. Hear Me well. Faith is a Gift of
God, a Gift rendered freely to you. You cannot see it.....but in the lives
of those around you. You cannot touch it....but in the hands and hearts
around you. You cannot share it.....if it does not first blossom in your
own heart first. Hear Me further still......Faith is to come to be lived
in Me, regardless of the storm around you or within you. Faith is to know
you are saved regardless of the thread by which you "hang" here on earth.
Faith is for you to use.....for you to grow in, but it is generated by ME.
Your Faith accomplishes naught by your own generation, save your growing
closeness into Me. If you raise a hand in Faith, you are acting within
Me. If Good is accomplished by your hand, the Good flows from
Me. See? Faith is a lived acknowledgment that I am God and you
are not. Faith is to need no "proof." Faith is to trust explicitly
because you believe I am Who I am. And Faith is to believe in
Salvation. Faith is to have an eye on Salvation because you cooperate with
My Grace in your heart. Faith is to sail into the most horrendous sea, and
to be calm in your heart because your focus is true and set upon Me. Faith
is given freely by Me. Faith is not a requirement, My lambs, it is a free
Gift from Me to you. The only duty you have is to open it and to become
alive in Me. Faith is given for the sake of your
hearts.
Faith is alive in varying degrees in
each one of you. You can help to pass on Faith, but the Gift of It is from
Me first. Do you see, My lambs? Faith is given that it will
grow. But to grow properly in Faith is to live in Awe and Wonder of
It because your heart can see the Glory of Its Presence, and the fact that
without It you would be "lost at sea."
Do you see Me in your presence, little
ones? Do you see Faith alive in your presence, little ones? Is Faith
witnessed well enough in you? Do others find Me because of how well you
believe? This Free Willed Gift from Me to you is Faith. Do not
squander My Gift by your lack of use. Do not squander My Gift by your own
re-creation of Its intended purpose. And do not rise higher, with
inflated pride, than you are able. Zealousness can easily
transgress Faith, My lambs.....I do not preach lethargy, now. What I warn
you about is not to be about YOUR cause, but Mine. And to achieve My
Intent of bringing you back into Me, I give you Faith......that you would come
to know that I am God, that you are not, that I AM here and so too, shall you
be.....if you choose to believe in MY Power and less and less in your
own.....except for the Power you have in Me, from Me. See? Faith is
coming to know God. And to believe because.....I Am! Amen.
