Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[The Lord speaks.....]
Words, child. Words offered to Me have varied value. For words escape into the air, and sometimes they escape.....the breeze carries them off to be planted elsewhere. Or, it is as though they evaporate, never to be seen again. The words which rise and flow and affect, are those words which rise from an open, Loving heart. For words can wound, or words can heal. It is truly, a matter of heart.Where do your words come from? Sincerity of heart? Are they like vapors escaping from a steaming pot? Are they like cool air in the hot, blazing sun? Are they swords which slice, or a balm which heals? Children, for your words to become an effective tool, they must rise from your heart. And as they escape, do expect healing. Of your own heart, or that of another.
I speak today of healing. Yes, I do. The healing of hearts. For, if a heart can better open to receive Me, to BE in Me, then THAT is the perfect healing. To join Me. To be in Me. Fully. Unreservedly. I come to you. Yes, YOU. I meet you. Yes, YOU. I see your need. Yes, I do. You say you shall follow. Words. Where do they rise from? You come to Me. Action. Where shall we go? Children! It is a matter of heart. A matter of acceptance. Of being understood.
Children, I DO speak to you. It is the condition of your heart which is My greatest concern. This place of heart where we are together, you and I. I am a God of Purpose. And how I touch you, is that you would better serve Me. I heal unconditionally, but I pray that you would choose to serve Me.
O little one, I ease your pain that you might know how I Love you. I touch you with the compassion of My Heart. O child, I hear you crying, deep in the place of your heart. I long to heal you. And I touch you, deeply. For life, sometimes, is a matter of acceptance. And I DO accept you, My child! All that concerns your heart, concerns Me. Let us TRULY be together, you and I.
Let Me tell you something: the physical pain that one endures is nothing compared to a broken heart. For outward pain can receive sympathy and soothing touch. Outward pain is visible and recognized. Interior pain is strife. It riddles a heart almost defenseless. It crushes, it suffocates. It is a most lonely place. "No one sees, no one cares," is the trick of the mind, the planting field of the enemy. *I* am here to say: Silence. Be still. Be in Me. I come to lift you up. Hearts, afterall, are My greatest attraction!
Children, may I tell you something? My greatest suffering upon My Cross was not the visible Wounds I bore, but the depths of suffering in My Heart. For Here I suffered the most. Here I witnessed all suffering and all the sins of mankind. And children, it is an atrocity to behold! To see My sweet innocent lambs tarnished, darkened, lost by sin. To see the Greatness of My Father's Love next to the darkness of sin! My Father, begging with open arms for each and every one of you! Children, to offer Him My Body and Blood.....I would do it again to assist My Father.....His Longing, His Desire for you.....but it is Complete. My Perfect Sacrifice. So now, I come to mend hearts. Again, to the criticism of so many onlookers. Some delight in where I heal and how. Others stand and criticize Me. Do you?
I will meet you where you're at. I will join you there, even in a den of thieves. Not to become a thief, but to be recognized as your Saviour. If I enter your darkness, I can bring you Light. If I witness your death, I can bring you Life. For so many, seeing is believing. And children, I DO see YOU!
The road to Me is called Conversion. It can likewise, be known as healing. It is all within the Plan of Salvation. Did you know I have drawn the plan just for you? Let your interaction with one another be for the Glory of God. Let there be a witness on My account. Let Me reach other hearts by the account of your witness! Let us give Hope to a hopeless world! Let Me become visible in your hearts!
Convert! Repent! Be! In Me! Now, in this time. THIS is your moment! THIS is the Hour of Glory! THESE are MY Words! They go out. They have effect. May they rest in the very depths of your soul. May they grow and send out many branches. May their arms be Gentle, Loving and Kind. That others may grow from where they are, into Me. For THIS is the Journey worth travelling.
To Me. In Me. By Me. Now. Amen. +
