Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[The Lord speaks.....]
They have pierced My Hands and My Feet. They have numbered all My Bones. They have spit upon Me. Yes, Me, Who is the Son of God. For the vision of a moment in the world, blocks the vision of all Eternity. Right before you is the Key to all Salvation. Have you seen and not believed? Have you crucified your Lord? The Presence of Me in your midst? What have you done with the Gifts I have given? What have you done with Me? Have you plotted to overthrow My Good Work? Have you plotted to overthrow Me? For what you do to the least of these, you do unto Me.Where am I in your life? Where have I been that I am no more? Have you sold Me off, to remove Me from that part of you which would be changed by Me, but can no longer be, because you have banished Me?
O children! I have said that I am with you always, even until the End of Time. So, why would YOU deny My Presence here in your life? Recall that I have been denied, as well, by those who I have called forth. From all men there were two who have denied Me. Of My Twelve. O! The insult borne in a heart who is betrayed by him who is closest to one's heart! Insult is expected from the one known as enemy; but to be denied by one called friend, is a stab would to the heart. It is this loss which is the most painful of all.
Children, where are the thirty pieces of silver in YOUR LIFE? Where have YOU denied Me? To whom have you listened? Who has influenced you to deny Me? My children, hear in detail My Word. Do not place yourself aside of it. For My Word is Life. Yet, arrested, thrown into prison am I. By whom? You? How would you stifle the Word of God? How do you banish Me in your life? Have you? Ever? Have you ever heard Me and received Life, True Life? And then refused Me? Now I ask you: Would I, Who am Life, banish Myself..... remove Myself from your midst? Would I Who Desire hearts, cut you off from a Source of Life on the Vine? Would I, Who Desire Unity, snip you from one another? Why would I do this? Who would do this is My enemy. But in Me there are no enemies, for the Sake of Forgiveness.
There is one who IS My enemy. He is Satan. He cannot forgive Me My Justice. Forgiveness is not a part of the vocabulary of his life. Do you follow his lead in your act of non-forgiveness? As you forgive one another, so too, does My Father in Heaven forgive you.
Now, look at Me Here upon My Cross. All these days are building to My Moment upon My Cross. And why do I hang here? Because of Forgiveness! Would you betray Me My Purpose in Life by not forgiving one another as I forgive you?
I have said it would be better to leave your gift at My Altar and go make amends with your neighbor. Yes. Forgiveness. It is the most necessary ingredient in every gift at My Altar. Do this, child.....Do this, child. Forgive. Make amends. Justify My Suffering, by believing My Word. Justify My Word by Living My Life. Where in silence do I stand accused in your life? Who do you listen to? Me? Or the crowd who would crucifiy Me? Do you trade Me for thirty pieces of silver? Or do you stand your ground in Me? Do you look upon Me and deny Me? Then there is still time. Weep for your sin. Pray for My Strength. Stay in focus on Me. For to turn from Me allows you to wander into sin, the act of betrayal.
I speak to many hearts now: I Desire Unity. I do not accomplish Unity by causing disunity. If there is a separation within Me, it is by YOU, who cannot accept My Word. It is for this Reason that mother will separate from daughter and father from son. My Word does not divide, but your hearts do divide if you do not accept Me. This sight greatly saddens My Eyes. For I would speak with Gentleness and Love and Truth. And I would hope you would hear Me THIS time.
To whom am I speaking? To the heart who must yet forgive. To whom am I speaking? To every member in My Body. Pray for unity. Pray for true Vision in Me. Pray for Life. Pray for Love. Pray for True Life in Me. Amen. +
