You ARE able to grow as a fine plant in the garden, in spite of the enemy's presence, if you keep your focus on Me.

[The Lord speaks.....]
There is a heart within each one of you for the Good or the bad now present in the world. I had not intended it be so, but by your own free will, you listen to the voice of the enemy. Your first parents were warned, for even then, evil existed. I did not want your eyes blinded nor your heart darkened by sin. Yet.....you stumbled and you fell. Yet.....you stumble and you fall. And so, the Light of the World enters your domain.....your heart.....through the Gift of Salvation! Baptism is announced and into your hearts pours the Gift of the Spirit and you are washed clean to live a life of Grace in Me. See? You have been made to walk the Way of the Lord, and for your every stumble and fall I am there.....IF you are willing to re-enter My Grace by the repentance in your hearts.

How you behave affects the whole, but begins with the seedling who you are. How will you be to the whole? How will you be to your SELF? Each of you bears your own responsibility to the whole. For who you are reflects outwardly and touches the whole. Are you a weakness on This Vine? Are you being choked by the enemy? What is your place in This Garden I have planted? If you recognize the enemy's presence in your life, then repent! I CAN restore the Value of who you are, My lambs. I am the Resurrection and YOU are My purpose in Salvation! Not a one of you is a "lost case"! Each and every one of you are Mine, IF you will have Me!

Come forth and accept the Life in the Spirit which I give to you. Baptism is reserved from no one who seeks Me. You ARE able to grow as a fine plant in the garden, in spite of the enemy's presence, if you keep your focus on Me. It is for this reason I tell you once more: Choose to live in Me. Imbibe My Word, imbibe My Meal. Receive this Fruit of My Sacrifice. Choose to be in Me, and so you shall. Afterall, I have asked you to come and follow, and My Word goes forth to achieve effect. Again I say.....Let YOU be the result of My Action.

In Me, even smallness is great! In Me, weakness is made strong. In Me, sin is converted by Grace. What the world would condemn, finds New Life in My Mercy. If you focus on Me you shall come to see My Way. If you focus on the breadth and depth of the way, confusion can distract you.....for you do not know the way. So, be like a lamb searching for the shepherd. Look to ME, and I will lead the Journey. Do you understand what I am saying? If you entertain more than what is your ability, you shall frustrate yourself. So.....be willing to be in Me as I would have you be. And come to know Me, that you can be in Me. Love is encouraging you, My lambs. Hear My Voice in My Church. Heed My Word. Receive My Body, My Blood. Remain true to your Baptism.....each of you in Me. You are here. Here am I. Let us begin....let us continue. Let us be. As it is ordained. I in you. You in Me. Amen. +
