Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
O my Jesus! My heart is on fire. My head is so sensitive near the crown [of thorns] You have permitted to me. My left palm aches. Tears are flowing from my eyes. And I feel so Loved and so very close to You, my Lord. How I LOVE You! How I ADORE You! How I BELIEVE in You. How I TRUST in You! All by Your Grace, O Divine and Intimate Lord! I abandon to You, all of me. That all and everything of who I am is for You. That any little suffering I may endure, may be for Your Good Pleasure. That You may use me, O Lord, as You Will. Thank You, O Lord, for being Willing to even bother with me. How very Graced I am that You Love me. O Lord! I cry to You with a deep interior zeal! Please Lord, heal our vision! That all may truly come to see You with the eyes of their hearts! O Lord! Improve my vision that I might see You more and more in all and everything, most especially in me and in all around me. And that as I see me more clearly, I might rejoice in the simpleness of who I am. For in simpleness I am great -- because You Love Me. What more could I want, O Lord! O God! Hear the bird's echo in this early morning air! Please Lord, let me echo my Love for You at least as well as the bird declares Your Presence in this new morning! Yet! As You Will, O Lord. If it be Silence You Desire, then still my heart, O Lord! To please You. To obey You. To Love You, Lord. To do Your Will, O God. To serve You. To Love You. To know You. By Your Kindness. By Your Grace. Thank You, O Kind and Loving Lord. Amen!!
[The Lord speaks.....]
O followers of Abraham, hear Me! Righteousness is what you are called to! To live your Faith by displaying its Value. See! You are called at times to the extreme as was he. Yet see My Love for you. I test, I do not punish: not the just. I tender you. I firm you. I improve you. I strengthen you. Glory is My Name. And I have shared Myself with all of humanity. There is not one heart who does not recognize that there is one greater than he. Yet, it is in the declaration of who is great, that the Journey begins. And the lie which has entered humanity begins there, to veer My people from the Truth: that I am God. Man is not. Flesh is not. The world is not. Goodness prevails. Yet evil would have you believe that evil is stronger. And every time you shake your head as evil surmounts its ugly throne, you lend credence to the viscous lie. And you make the campaign of evil easier and easier.Fight back every advance with prayer. Kindness. Lovingness. Good Virtue and prayer. Prayer keeps you one in Me. I am for you, who can be against you? What snare can the enemy lay that would entrap you? Am I the Victor. Am I the Lord. Am I God, Lord, Creator of All? Who is the Victor? Am I? Are you Mine, or the spoil of the enemy?
Children! You MUST think of these things! Analyze your heart. Live what I say to you! LIVE in Me. As I am in you. Does ANYTHING I say make sense to you? O Yes! Let Me tell you to look to your children! See how very impatient you can grow with your adolescents! See how they challenge! See how they refuse every advance of knowledge that has gone before them! See how even for years, they decide to turn their backs on all that is groundwork, framework, foundation. O! You lose patience! O! You hope and pray for Salvation to be their choice. You fear and worry and Love in their behalf.
Now, look at YOU. How do you think I see YOU? Are you that child? What of My Life have you refused? Where have YOU gone off marching to your own plan, not Mine? Where have you thought that you could improve on life beyond that which I have given to you? Where have YOU thought you knew more than Me. Be careful of this point. For all too often you THINK you are pleasing Me, when in Truth, you are only pleasing YOU. Why do you do what you do? For Me. Or truly for YOU?
A Father has spoken to His children! A Father has spoken to YOU! Have you heard Me? O, little blind child! I see you sitting in your blindness, thinking within you that your blindness is sight, is True Vision of Me. You have yet to see an inkling of Who I Am. And I pity you. For how you pretend to see. Sometimes in a certain refusal of what is Truth. Sometimes because blindness is foisted on you as a bird of prey is blinded..... (Lord?)
.....Until the captor decides to release you. In the place where he would put you. You did not realize you have been moved there. Because you could not see! But even HERE I come to rescue you! To tell you plainly! That at times, all that you see may not be quite right! The snare of the enemy has tricked you! He has duped you. Convinced you that lie is truth. And soon enough you WILL see! Child! Would I lie to you? Would I EVER say a falseness just to gain an effect? I am TRUTH! I am incapable of lie. I do NOTHING in error just to achieve an End. Recall, O lamb, I am the Alpha and Omega. I am the Beginning and the End!
[It is as though I see the Finger of God touch a heart......]
Blindness! I speak to you now! I, Who am God, command you to be made clear in My Sight. Here now, be made whole. I would restore proper vision. I speak now, of the heart! For to see clearly in the heart is to live in Truth. To see clearly in the heart is to Live in Me. And to Live in Me is the Goal, is it not?To BE in Me as I am in thee. Has that not been the prayer I have asked that you live? O little lamb: Truly, come follow ME. No other! Release yourself from your blindness. I hold up to you the Truth of My Light. That you might begin to see. Me. That I have been here all along. And why you were told I am not here, is the lie.
No matter why. Just come to Me NOW! I am here to hold you. And comfort you. I will make all things right. And what refuses will be cast away. At the time of Judgment. That is not for you -- to judge. It is for Me. YOU are for Me. Be Mine. I Love you. Be Mine. Amen. +
