Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
My Lord, it is now 3 a.m. And here we are near our candle, near Your Image [icon] in our prayer corner. O Lord! I Love You.
Who is looking over your shoulder, child? (My Lord, no one is.)
Glory awaits those who would travel to Me. My Way is not the way of mankind! Men travel a path with five year planning. Men travel a path with almost pre-destiny plugged into every corner. Every contingency becomes covered. All possibilities are considered. Regrouping and retooling the plans occurs along the way, lest one loses sight of the target. And to a point, this is a worthwhile endeavor. But I ask you: Where in your plan am I? Where in your plan lies Trust in Me? Little lambs, I would speak of Trust in Me. Why would you come to follow Me, if it were not that you trust Me? Everything that I do has Purpose. Perfect Purpose. The delay to My Plan occurs at the mercy of your own will. For if you refuse to act, then My Plan needs a new way to be accomplished. Your will can slow the Work of God! Did you ever think of that? To be attentive to My Will, in the moment I call you is the Way of My Will. To be is to BE all the time, children. If you begin to forsake Me along the Way, then you are no longer with Me. I ask you, then: Where are you? Where are you in that moment, should the earth fall away from your hearts? To what will you be clinging. To whom do YOU cling? I pray that the answer is.....ME!
Now, why would I call you at this early hour? But for you to be with Me. Children who read, I ask you this question: Who do YOU say that I am? If you have followed, what have you gained in Me as you have left behind the ways of the world? Who is My Remnant Nation, afterall. Who are My people Israel? Who is dwelling in the land of My New Jerusalem? Who is worthy to be My Own? By My Blood are you worthy.
Child, let us place here, the first reading. (Yes, Jesus.....Acts 3:1-10.....Shall I read it, my Lord Jesus?)
Child, the purpose has been discussed, but yes, DO read My Holy Word. (Yes, my Lord.
Yes, I am, child. Now do read My Word. (Yes, my Loving Lord.)
No one can heal in My Name without Faith. No one can be healed in My Name without Faith. In Whom do YOU trust? Children, IN WHOM DO YOU TRUST? Do you believe Me, My Word? Do you believe that I am breathing My Word upon you that it would return to Me, having accomplished My Own Intention? DO you believe? WHAT do you believe? Do you truly LIVE what you believe? To the ridiculous? To do what might appear ridiculous? Because of Me? Because you Trust in Me? What do you believe? What do you live? All in Me? Or part in Me? I Desire completeness. Unity. Entirety, in Me.
Now My Psalm. Record it. Yes, inscribe it here. (Yes, my Lord Jesus.)
Psalm 105:1-4, 6-9
"Give thanks to the Lord, invoke His Name; make known among the peoples His Deeds! Sing praise, play music; proclaim all His Wondrous Deeds! Glory in His Holy Name; rejoice, O hearts that seek the Lord! Rely on the mighty Lord; constantly seek His Face. You descendants of Abraham His servant, offspring of Jacob, the chosen one! The Lord is our God who rules the whole earth. He remembers forever His covenant, the pact imposed for a thousand generations, which was made with Abraham, confirmed by oath to Isaac."[The Lord continues.....]
I am Glory, Grandeur, Might. Yet, I raise you up above all creation. That you would have the freedom to choose to follow Me. To relinquish all I have given you for a True Life in Me. What shall be your choice? To divinize yourself? Or to be My worthy subject who bows in all Humility to the Power of God?My Gospel. (Yes, my Lord.....Luke 24:13-35) [I pause to read.....]
My lambs, hear Me. If you have not read My Word, you shall not recognize Me here. If you have not entered My Sanctuary: My Life, you shall not recognize Me here. This statement will be difficult for some. Because they still refuse that I am here. They would see Me only where they would permit Me to be in their hearts. And so, they do not see Me here, in this daily journey. Ah! To open the Scriptures! Ah! To begin to have the Word of God affect your life! That is My Purpose here for YOU! That I would change you as you would be changed. That you would journey with Me now, but not to miss a moment of Who I am. Because you recognize Me here. That this is why you have chosen to walk with Me here. It is I, afterall, who have drawn you to this place. To change your heart, in that moment when you are ready. Because of growing Faith and Hope and Love. Because you have come to Trust Me.
In so many places I begin to walk. In too many places am I still greeted with suspicion. Prayerful discernment will prove Me out. Have you truly prayed? With an abandonment to My Guidance, by My Spirit? Or do you keep "an eye on Me?" A suspicious eye? A suspicious eye is not a trusting eye.
Children, who do you say that I am? Who is it with Whom you walk every day? With Whom are you talking? Whose Word are we breaking open? What is it you are beginning to understand? Do you recognize Me yet?
I have chosen an hour of prayer to speak to you. In this writing are the prayers of those who rise to My Voice to pray. Those who are, likewise, attentive to My needs. Afterall, Who has created you? And for what purpose but to serve? Is it not even a week since I have stooped to wash your feet? "Master, wash the whole of Me that I may be made clean." No, see, I have taught you. Only one touch from Me. Only one touch from Me. Faith. Hope. Love. Trust. Nothing changes, children. Do you? This is My Purpose: To bring you wholly, entirely, into Me. To raise you up above the norm. To make you Mine. But only if you would come and follow Me.
Now daughter, do return to your sleep. I shall bless you, make you whole. In Me. Daughter, Sarah, in Me. Amen. (My Jesus, I Love You. I bow before Your Glory. Thank You for Your Strength, my Lord. All is possible only by You! You are God. And I am Your grateful daughter. Amen. And Jesus! It is 4 a.m.! The hour of prayer is complete! You awe me, my Lord! Wonder and Awe! God be praised! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!)
With Love, in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary,
His Sarah
