Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!! I place my trust in You!! O Glorious King, I bow before You!! Lead me, O Lord, that I may follow. And in my desire to follow, let me not become distracted by ways to please You. Let me sit at Your Holy Feet and gaze upon You. That my heart might recognize Your promptings within it. That all I do for You keeps YOU clearly in my vision. To focus on You, O Lord. Only on You. I beg You, my Lord for such Grace. Amen!!

Child, hear Me. (Yes, Lord?)

I intensify My Presence upon you that you might be more clear in your understanding of service to Me. (Jesus, I trust in You! My Lord and my God! Let me not miss a moment in prayer, for the wanderings of my mind!)

Daughter, hear Me. I increase Myself upon you that you will learn. (Thank You, my Lord. O Lord! How I rely upon You for any Goodness I might become! Jesus! I Love You!)

Sweet thing, hear Me. Trials and travails beget humankind. They become the dancing partner of so many hearts. They serve to help you grow if you but remain focused in Me. But to let them rule, they become the lead of the dance, and not Me. Do you understand what I say? You reserve a dance card for your own sorrow and self-pity. And when I come to take your hand, you prefer the company of your own broken heart than to My Own Sacred Heart.

I pause for you to digest what I have said.

Look and see that tragedy in this world abounds. It is the every item of your news. Where has the good news gone? Where is the Message of My Gospel? Yes, spoken in terms for all ears? Where has the report of goodness gone? See! Self-pity begets self-pity. And a heart in despair is a heart easily won by the enemy. You fester, you eat your own flesh in the despair of the moment. You are consumed by your own grief.

Yet, you say, you are not grieving. That you can withstand the attack. That you do not act upon the bad news. O! But you do! How can you survive such an attack without a suit of armor? The armor of God. The Strength of Faith and Hope and Charity. Godly virtue. Not anti-virtue. What do I mean?

Think of your world’s condition. You are led to BELIEVE there is no HOPE. And so there is Faith and Hope, attacked outright. See! You have already succumbed. And then what of Charity? You are led to believe you cannot help because there is no hope. Do you not see the destruction which has become the manna of this world? Stop eating and feasting on the venom! Here I stand! I am the Bread of Life. In Me there is Eternal Joy. Joy in every sorrow, in a life focused on Me.

Know this, lambs, all are called to the table of the Lord. What blocks your entry is the road you have followed which was not My Desire. And in these days, I am offering a flurry of Gifts of Faith that you might be attracted to follow the Path of Truth into the Heart of My Bride, My Church. For there is one Table which is Mine to which you are invited. And to arrive, you must follow ME. No other but ME. As I have given Myself to the World. Now, I cannot go back on My Word. I have given the Keys to My Kingdom to the hands of My Peter of Rome. The Line of Succession is True from My Peter of Rome. All that has caused the separation must find resolve in Loving Leadership but, likewise, within the Truth of My Words. By the Line of My Peter. And that humanity groans at such a job to be done, in no way competes with the Will of God. Children! It is to please the Will of God, not man!

Pray for this unity at My Table. Love must prevail. For the Meal is Love. I am the Meal. I am Love. I am God. And My lambs, I tell you further. Do not become rapt in the magnificence of the presentation: the miracle. All miracles serve but one purpose: to bring a moment of Faith to the unbelievers. But then the Journey continues. Pray for Faith to grow from miracles. Not faith in the miracle, but Faith in God Who has allowed the miracle. It is a sign of Love. Be aware of this. Focus on Me. Focus on Me. Not My Ways, but LIVE My Ways that you might focus on Me!

Children, I come to teach you, to draw you back, to fine-tune you to a pure and true Life in Me. Be not like little puppies, jumping and scurrying about. Be not distracted by every siren in your midst. You are My Creation beyond that!

I feed you to Nourish you, to grow you deeper into Me. I am not a casual meal. I am the Bread of Eternal Life. For to feast upon Me is to dine upon your God. That you might enter My Kingdom by this process of communion in which as you receive Me, I am permitted to absorb you. Little by little more free-willed abandonment of you into Me. That you might become fuller, freer in Me.

Come, let us journey together. See how well I provide for My Own:

those who freely take even one step with Me. Be Mine, O lambs. And seek your strength from Me. I am calling you, afterall. Now is the time of commitment. Let us proceed. In Truth. In Love. In Me.

Amen. +

 

(Nm. 11:4-15;; Ps. 81:12-17; Mt. 14:13-21)

 

With Love, in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary,

His Sarah
