Title: "Do you defend Me, by accusing Me?"

Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! My Lord and my God! Amen! Alleluia! Maranatha!

Come, Lord Jesus! O Lord! As I pray Your Name, all else falls away. Before me there is a sense of Direction, as if my focus is contained within the head of an arrow. Jesus! May my Love be permitted to enter the Depths of Your Most Sacred Heart!! My Lord and my God, You are the Saviour of the world. By Your Precious Blood are we cleansed. By Your Body do we live forever. My Lord, I give You my heart, my mind, my body, my soul. Freely, Lord. Here, Lord. Take me, Lord. Amen!!

My child, hear Me as I accept here into My Hands and Heart this offering of your very self. The sacrifice of self is the most endearing to My Heart. For it follows Me and My Way. Perhaps on your part, not to the death. But willingness is the heart-action that I see. And I accept willingness of a sincere heart just as the actions which are performed.

O little ones, hear Me. Children, I speak to you now. The Son of Man is before you. I lead you. But I will not MAKE you follow. The Son of Man has come to set all the captives free. Those in death have been raised to My Eternal Life. For they have been waiting, patiently, for the Son of Man’s arrival. But you, you who still walk: Your fate is conducted by your "yes" or "no" to My Way, versus the way of the flesh. See this now and let it be known: You are to walk a straight path with Me. Even curves along the way become straight in Me.

Daughters and sons, hear Me. How often have I spoken to you of the WAY you are moving? Are you moving? Where are you moving? How are you moving? What is the condition of your soul? Is it clean? Is there darkness there being disguised by a shell of good works? Know this, lambs: I SEE HEARTS and there is no hiding from the Light of Truth! I say further, lambs: whose words do you follow? Mine or that of the enemy? How do you know? How do you judge? Do you listen with trust in another brother or sister? Or do you turn at least as often in prayer to Me?

Shall I speak more plainly? Do you defend Me, by accusing Me? Now, what precisely, do I mean by that?

Do you defend your actions as being for Me, even while you judge and attack your sister, your brother? For recall, O heart less humble than Mine, that I am likewise, here in your sister, your brother. So! Now! What do you say? I ask you again: Do you defend Me while still attacking Me? I have said a house divided against itself will fall. Would YOU attack My House? Would YOU cause it to fall? No! For I thresh out the wheat before such a thing would occur. And I divide the buds of the wheat, that fruit of the vine, from the chaff and the waste which refuses to be productive to a true Life in Me.

Am I harsh? In this moment, children, if harshness is felt by you, then I ask you to examine, carefully, your souls. Every heart, carefully now: consider My Words. For they are meant to encourage you to willingly be cleansed in My Sight, in My Hearing.

How can you parade in the guise of the good if you hold ill-will to your neighbor? How can you parade in the guise of good if you plot against your neighbor? How can you parade in the guise of good if you suspect your neighbor rather than Love and pray for him or her.

I exclude no one from examination in these facts. But know this: the charade has been designed by the enemy. And it is YOU who have decided to wear it! Truly, children, if you are not WITH Me, then you are against Me. I care not for what you do on your outside if your inside is worthless. And your inside becomes worthless in the absence of Love. But know this: the absence of Love is only on YOUR part. For even in this absence of Love in you, there is Me. For I would live there, in your stifling environ, waiting for you to discover the error of your ways!

Now I ask you: would I attack Myself? I am in all people, children.

Those who you judge worthless: I am there. Those you judge in error:

I am there. Have I not told you to Love one another as I have loved you? Then if you do not Love the other, what is it that you do? If you say that you Love, but you have reached out to hurt or harm, how can this be Love?

O children, My Words are True. And if you reach out to discredit Me, you harm Me. Do you not realize this? Can you not see this? For all this time have any of My Words penetrated the thick fog which has entered your heart? Can you not see this visible sign of Life and Love before you? Can you not see My Stability before You? Do you not see that I never waiver? How much has the enemy attacked Me, that I might topple! Yet, here I remain! Speaking to you. Day after day! Why? Because I do not topple against Myself. I am not in division. I am whole. I am one.

I am everywhere. I am in each one of you. Be one in Me. That you may be one in each other. In Me. No duplication but harmony. Unity. Oneness in Me. A great variety is My Creation, but all are one in Me.

My lambs, I know My Words are strong. But you do not see the strength of the enemy. He has lassoed you and you think it is a belt around your waist. He has fed you poison and you think it is a fine wine. He has placed before you a mirage and you think your vision is clear. I ASK YOU AGAIN: Focus on Me. Live in Me. Breathe in Me. Be in Me! Rely on Me. Trust in Me. This is the hour of cleansing. Leave aside thought without heart. Leave aside emotion without thinking. Be one in your spirit. Be one in Me. Prayer! Let prayer be active on your lips; but let prayer be honest in your hearts!

So much do I tell you. But what have I truly told you to do? Love.

One another as yourself. Love Me wholly and completely. Love. Love.

Love. A life of Love. In Me. Amen. +

(1 Thes. 2:9-13; Ps. 139:7-12; Mt. 23:27-32)

Love, in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary,

His Sarah
