Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[The Lord speaks.....]
Children of all nations, hear Me. I am the Lord your God. Do you believe Me? Do you think it is possible that I, Who am God, is here, speaking to you in such plain language? Do you think that I Who am God would care enough to speak to your hearts? Do you think that all these Words are from Me? What do you think? What do you believe? There is a difference.Thinking allows for many options. Many opinions. In the kingdom of your mind. Here, there are many caverns, many tributaries. Many mountains. Many great plains of thought. It can become an endless journey, here in your mind.
Let us talk of Faith. Faith, as opposed to thought, is absolute. It is a resolute moment of acceptance, perhaps even without any full understanding. Did you realize there is a difference between what you think and what you believe? Well, there is, and I have seen you struggle long enough. For those things of Faith, there truly is no discussion. I speak of discussions of discovery, for Faith is absolute. Discussions which arise from the celebration of Faith are another matter, the words of which, bring Joy to My Ears.
O lambs, I speak of your tongue, this instrument which has been given to pronounce words, to communicate; and is all too often used to condemn. O! I would rather see you mute, than to hear the foul words of division which are formed on your tongue! Do you know that with your tongue you can lay the bricks and mortar of the kingdom of the enemy? Do you know that in too many cases, you have? Your tongue can be used to point the way, by uplifting and sincerely faithful words to Me. Or you can steer the ship of your own life, or worse..... another, into the perils of the jagged rocks of the enemy! So powerful is this gift of your tongue!
I ask for Gentleness. Gentleness of speech. I ask for abandonment. Abandonment of self into My Loving Hands. I ask for Trust. Trust that I shall catch you if you should fall. Trust that in Me, all things are possible.
I speak of prayer. So often is the tongue used for prayer. Let your prayer be not a litany of self desires. Let it be used to utter the desires of your heart which are in union with Me. I shall whisper here and you shall utter My Request. For the petitions I utter in your heart will lead all My people into greater union in Me.
I am Whole. I am Complete. You will come to see as you journey with Me that your own self-surrender is the path to righteousness. Yes, record it. (Yes, Jesus.) "And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for those who cultivate peace." James 3:18.
For how you are to Be in Me is in Peace. If you are not in Peace you are not fully in Me. I have offered you so many measures, that you may see where you are, at all, in Me. Have you truly heeded My advice?
Be wary of knowledge for self-gain. It is the first sin. A sin of Pride. If all you do is to build up My Kingdom, then you are on the right path. You are on the right path if you are following Me. This journey in Me is so accompanied by Words. Words of prayer. Words of advice. Words of opinion. Words of praise. Words of encouragement. Words of torment. Words of distrust. Words that build. Words that curse. Words that erode, gnaw at your very foundation! Ah! The tongue! It is the master of words! Will you let it bow to the Prince of Peace? Will you let it bow to the Word become Flesh?
Imagine your mouth as a kingdom all its own. What shall pour forth from its portals? Are you a kingdom of life, or of death? Are you in My Kingdom? Are you recognized as Mine by the words that you utter? Oh! You had never thought of it in quite that way? Well, *I* have! For I see the grand castles built on tongues in submission to Me. And I see the devastation of all that once was, slain by the power of the word.
Lambs, will you relinquish your all and everything to Me? Do you believe I can hold you? Do you believe I am God? Then adhere to My Word. Imbibe My Word. BE in My Word. I am the Word! Whose word has lasting value? Yours? Or Mine? Amen. +

With Love, in the Two Hearts,
His Sarah
