Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You. O Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You. O Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You.
I bow before the Glory of Your palpating Heart, my Lord.
[Jesus speaks.....]
The point of the Cross is as unique for each one, as is My Love for you. O little ones, do hear Me. The Cross is a paradox. Joy in suffering. Glory in death. Rising in burial. Cleansing in the sullying of life. Strength in weakness. Winning in the face of apparent loss. Wounds that become jewels when in the world alone, wounds rot and fester. It is all a matter of your proximity to the Cross. Are you taking up you own, willingly? Or are you fleeing further into the world for yet one more moment of false peace and pleasure?Children, Truth would pierce every heart. But in most cases, for Truth to pierce the heart, it is to be done by the point of a cross, a cross unique unto you. Just as you cannot measure My Love for you, so too, you cannot measure the worth of your cross. But I tell you this: just as My Own, your cross points upward to My Heavenly Father from its rooting in the earth. Your cross, too, points outward for the benefit of all around you. And in the middle here we are togethr. For I do not leave you orphans, and I do not abandon you. Never. If you have ever felt abandoned, I tell you, it is because you have lost sight of Me.
O little ones, do not sit in disdain [scornful superiority] or in fear of receiving your cross. I give you all the assistance you need to carry your cross. The Strength you receive is from My Grace. And My Grace can be infused within you, or it can come to you in the hands of one around you. One you know, or a complete stranger. The assistance can be in the prayers offered by so many who pray as I have asked of them. Yes, this IS My Body. And you are all its members. The life of one reflects on the life of the other. The cross of one has a bearing on the life of another, just as it relies on the strength of the one upon whom it leans. See? WE ARE ALIVE. TOGETHER!
And so, for a moment, let us talk of sin. Yes, sin, this general weakness, ill health that permeates My Body who is you. Let not the infection spread. Be a valuable member of My Body. Stay alive in Grace, lest the part who you are, die. Know that the condition of YOUR soul has a bearing on the rest of the Body. Just as your cross is unique.....so is your sinful nature.....so is how you bear the Grace that I give to heal you. See? As unique as you are, you ALWAYS have a bearing on the whole. [I began to pray, "Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful and enkindle in us the Fire of Your Love. Send us Your Spirit and we shall be created, and You shall renew the face of Your earth.".....]
Yes, child. Do pray that My Holy Spirit pierces every heart with Truth. Truth heals My Body. It is the Breath that cleanses. There is much disease in My Body because of the lack of Truth. And that so many are deceived, the value of their crosses is wasting away. For they have not taken up their cross, they have avoided it with deceptive cooperations. The union in My Body is to be Love and Truth. Soon enough I shall cast away those parts which would destroy the rest. For I shall not stand for this attack upon Me. Patience and Understanding will bow to Justice. Do not be the one who is sliced away with My Sword of Justice. Take advantage now. Take up your cross, now. Face yourself, your own sin and lift this all to Me. Now. Before I cast you away. You know who you are. I speak to your heart. Others: pray. You know who you are, as well. There is a common concern here. It is the Body. Filled with Life: My Own. Flowing with Grace from God. Bearing life that there may be death that there may be True Life in Me. Dying to rise. Yes. I have lived the entire affair. I LIVE now, still, forever. Amen. Come and join Me. Yes, follow. Now, lift your cross. Bare your sin to Me. And be healed. Sin, suffering. Suffering, sickness. Each is unique. Unto you. You in Me. The battle is won. DO lift your cross to Me. I shall lift it. We. Us. Together. You. I. Me. You. We. Us. Together. Now. Please. Amen. One. Amen. Yes, One. You in Me. I in you. See? You are not alone, afterall, are you? Here I am. Take My Hand. Let us begin. Now. Yes, now. Amen. †
