Title: " Yes, for every action, there is an equal or opposite reaction. "
(Notebook XLVI, pp. 149--155)
Live † Jesus
Sunday, August 2, 1998
Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
Child, what is the word which has just come to your mind? (The word is "balance", my Lord.)
Left and right. East and west. North and south. Up and down. In and out. Yes, for every action, there is an equal or opposite reaction. The Law of Nature. My Father invented it. (My Jesus! You seem jovial today!) Yes, child, I AM happy. (Ah! My Lord! I smile WITH Your! Jesus! You are always a Surprise in my life!) Child. I have already spoken of balance. Just in the recent past. I am the Scale upon which your life would be weighed. Recall? (Yes, my Lord. I recall it. I recall Your Words.) [Reference to Message 581]
My little ones, hear Me. There is not one part of your life that I do not already know about. You think you are accomplishing your deeds, good or foul, in secret; yet here I am before you! Here I am within you! When you peel away your layers, when you allow this to occur, you unearth within you the Buried Treasure which has been there all along: Me. When you die, you are permitted a moment of understanding of Me, that you would recognize all which you will be judged by. And that is, how often in you life have you passed Me by in favour of the world and its ways. How have you measured life? By whose standards? Upon which scale?
Do you know that the scale of the world, the flesh and the devil is fixed? To entice you, all that you would measure on that scale, has a fixed balance. That is why when you live by the standards of the world, you begin to err and fall into confusion, despair and depression. Things don't "work" because the scale does not work. See? You are able to pile up riches that seem to balance with happiness. But it is not working and you don't know why. It is because the scale is fixed. It is called deception.
Come to Me, little ones. At My Scale you will see motion. Heavy hearts might sink, but with a Loving look in My Direction, see.....you rise up again. Do you understand Me?
I am Truth. On My Scale, a weight is a weight, but once you place yourself willingly Here, I shall balance you and you shall see and feel the motion. Upward into Me. If you come with an elated heart, at first you would be too light. But then, in a balance in Me, you settle into the reality of Life in Me. Do you see? You cannot live your life on an experience of exhilaration, unless you are grounded in Me. And in Me, the grounding is in My Cross. What am I saying?
O children! I do permit little ecstasies in your life. To bring you closer to Me. But even an ecstasy becomes a false god if it becomes your focus and not Me. Now, do you see? Do not discount the favours I give to you.....oh.....no! But do use all that I give to come to Me. That is the Purpose of all Things. That things are misused is a matter of wrong judgment on your part. And here is where you can fall into sin. See? Now, do you see?
Is a "good thing" causing you consternation? Then, come to Me. Always. Have I not been instructing you this? Always! Come to Me! In Baptism you are a new person. You have already entered My Life. So.....continue. I have Graced you to follow Me. When you refuse, the pain within you is because you are tearing your heart away from Me. Your heart prefers Me, but you are deciding to expose it to the world alone. Yes, alone. You are making yourself into something you are not. All children are My Own. But in this instance of separation, the greatest pain is felt in the heart by the one who is already Baptized. For the heart.....soul, has lived in the Light, and now you are forcing it into the dark and along with your soul, goes your heart and mind. So many are unhappy today, and this is because they are unwilling to admit that happiness is in Me. They have come to accept the lure of the world, the throb of the flesh, the deception of the devil. Now I ask you, yes you, where in all of this are you?
See how I help you to discern your very self? See how you begin to make little discoveries? See how you glimpse in My Direction? THIS is the Cause of My Joy. The cause, dear one, is YOU!
Yes, I am happy! Because you are listening! You are struggling to come fully to Me. You are becoming willing to let Me balance you! And so, today, My Heart has filled with Joy! Over you! Because of you! Yes, you! My little Love. You! O! How I Love you. Amen. †
