O my God! I am nothing without You. Yet, even within You, I am an insignificant speck
of dust! O Lord! I prefer to be here clinging to Your Cross: for here there is the only
Hope of Clear Vision—through Your Eyes! O Lord! I pray for Your Vision. Your Counsel.
Your Wisdom. Your Virtue. Lord! I prefer to look out on this world in which I have been
permitted to live through YOUR Eyes. For Lord, if I do not do that, willfully, then the
eyes become my own. And I obscure YOU, my Lord. And my vision becomes full of tangents.
And further and further do I stray from You. O Lord! Thank You for tears. Thank You for
struggles with thoughts and fatigue and all human failing!
"I think that, according to what our Lord makes known to me, He does not wish to
take away from you these feelings contrary to the virtue of humility; He leaves you
something to fight against, so that He may reward your victories; and also, that you may
be continually on your guard and have a great distrust of yourself." (St. Margaret
Mary, II, 540. "Thoughts and Sayings" for August 26)
Tears, I accept as a cleansing balm for the soul. I am the Spirit of God Who permeates
men’s minds and hearts. And if there is to be a growth within a soul, it is by My
Guidance.
O lambs, following My Lead, know that you are not alone. Your struggle is between the
cravings of your flesh in this world, and the longing of your soul to be truly free in Me.
See now, the struggle that racks within you. For your heart recognizes Truth, though your
feet planted in the soil of this earth would lead you closer and closer to the road to
Perdition. Do you understand why the Power of God has come upon you by the Gift of Holy
Baptism?
O children of God, hear Me. The Waters from the Side of the Son of Man gush forth. And
the Spirit of God rejoices over the Baptism of one soul into the Kingdom! Do you truly
realize what the Gift of Faith has brought you? Entrance into Eternal Glory! Here where
you shall be moved to Glorify God forever and ever.
I lift your hearts now. Yes, you who read and listen. I place you here in My Presence.
Feel, do feel, the Lightness of the Moment. I place you here and I look through your
spirit with the Light of My Truth piercing through every part of your being. O skin of
alabaster! O heart of stone! Be crushed in the Warmth of My Love. Desire Me, Your God, so
much so that you are willing to be cleansed. Of any and every imperfection. Would you
behold the radiance of your transparent self before Me? Only by your will! Yet, as I come
to reveal your darkness, you begin to see fully, My Light. And the beauty of your soul
floating toward Me as if a piece of heavenly gossamer, encourages you to move on, closer
and closer into Me.
O lambs of the Lord, you must come to realize that the Road on which I lead you is one
to be EXPERIENCED, to be LIVED. No longer retract your words, your growth, your actions of
movement to Me! Be precise and steady on your feet! Be grounded in Me, the Church. Yes,
there is the challenge! Where would you be grounded? I have brought you by Baptism into
the fullest Life in Me.
The world offers competition. O vessel of gold, look at your outside! See the traces of
world upon you! See the imprints of flesh on you which would sully the perfection of your
sacrifice: of you to God. Be it known that your life should be a daily progress of
learning and living Perfection in God. And this cannot take place unless you willingly
relinquish to Me your very self. That true purification may take place. That your
body’s heart and mind may join in the Treasure possessed by your soul: the Spirit of
God Who now speaks to you.
I am the Light of Truth Guiding you home. I have borne Gifts for you and placed them
deeply in your soul. Now is the time of Purification. That your soul should reach the
Brilliance of Me within you. Yes, that your flesh might become tame: to bow before the
Presence of God within you. For you are a vessel on a journey. And the Journey is to a
full Life in God. And the Motion is Truth. Directed by Me.
I am filling you with the Knowledge of the Glory of God within you. You have been
released, set free, by the cleansing Waters of Baptism. Now!
Let yourself participate in that cleansing and accept the Journey to
which you have been invited. This true Life is in God! Come! Be one
in the Master! The Grace of God is pouring profusely down upon you! Be
as a vessel filled with this Saving Grace. Be one. Be whole. Be
cleansed. (God be praised! Alleluia!) +
