Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
Child, record these Sweet Words of your Lord. (Yes, my
Lord and my God!!)
Daughter, there are many topics to teach My children. I choose
so many methods. I speak to so many hearts in so many ways.
Would God's Wisdom be denied you, even as I tell you to come to know Me?
Of course not! I come to you in the way you best understand Me.
I talk to thinkers who hear Me. I talk to this simple lamb, who hears
Me. That each of you journey to Me, is the only matter at hand.
Many ways. Many hearts. Many parts. One Body. Yes?
(Yes, my Lord. Yes.)
And now, I address interpretation. Things you think I want,
but do not! O lambs, all too often this occurs because you
think you know Me fully, and you do not. Without a clear understanding,
you race before Me to prepare My Way, when I have not asked that you do
this. See? [Jesus smiles at me.] (Yes, Jesus!
I see! O! My Sweet and Gentle Jesus! I Love You!)
A king would prepare Me a throne. David would do this for his
Master, but it is not My Desire! I speak of David.....[Reference
to 2 Sm. 7:4-17].....yet I speak of YOU, who reads! How many times
have you sped into a good and worthy deed, only never to stop to ask ME
if it is My Will? And so, your actions do not go wasted on those
who are the recipient of your deed, but YOUR SOUL has not truly grown,
for you have not been participating in My Will. And it is YOUR SOUL
which is My concern. That you come to serve ME perfectly. Life,
afterall, is not a time for gathering beautiful flowers to present them
as a bouquet to My Nostrils when I would have preferred to stand with you
in the garden to admire My Handiwork. You are looking at flowers.
*I* am looking at your SOUL. O limited vision! Be made clear!
O child! Do blink, and see Me Who Am God here in your presence!
Would I run? Would I hide? From YOU, My precious Love?
[I now begin to realize I am hearing Abba.]
Rejoice! And know that I am constantly preparing the ground
to be seeded, even with YOU! David was but one seed to prepare the
way for the arrival of My Son into the world. I am Who Am is speaking
to you now! Abba, Father. Father of all! I look upon
you, lambs, and you try SO hard. But the effort would be eased if
you first gave yourself to Me. Did you not observe any good thing
from the Life of My Son? See how He has taught! By Parable!
See how many learn! See how many do not.
There is meaning in every Word that falls like sweet honey from My
Lips. Rejoice that I dispense O, so many Words to you! Did
you ever count their numbers? Did you not know that I Love
you more than the sum of these words? And these are but a few.
O My Sweet things, know: That I Who Am God, speaks to His people.
My people are YOU! Would you hear, or not? Would I block your
vision? Or do YOU cover your eyes? Do I caste for you a heart
of stone? Or do you take and bathe your heart in a worldly cement,
lest the Truth should enter therein!
Let Me ask you something! Why has Truth that once entertained
your soul, now caused you to flee in suspicion? Why have you turned
from My Life, solely to your own, aside of Me? I had become so used
to your hand! I had become so used to your innocent Love and life
in Me! But I turned, and where once you ate and drank My every Word,
now you yawn and walk away.
Ah! Yet, HERE you are! Still reading! Me!
My Word! It is *I* Who have planted a curiosity within you!
That you come here to read Me is planted in your heart by ME! Yes!
I know all things. And *I* know YOU best of all! And so, O
fertile ground, I do now see the hint of new life within you. For
I would never pull Myself from you completely, until the end. If
that is your desire. For it never could be My Desire. I Love
you too much.
I provide to you the advantage you require. That you
accept or refuse is your choice. But it is MY Choice to pursue you!
And I do. And I shall! For wherever you are, I Desire you to
be deeper into Me. In Me. Yes. Will I ever stop speaking
of this? O, child! No I shall not! Until you have fully
entered My Being, I shall not stop the Invitation!
Son, you have run from Me for too long. Daughter, you sit idle
too long. WILL YOU HEAR ME NOW? Come follow Me! Be in
Me! Now! Here! Not later! This IS the Word of the
Lord! Alive, in your hearing. And you hear, and you read because
I have brought you here: Your eyes, your ears. And now, I Desire
your heart. To be. In Me. Amen. +

With Love, in the Two Hearts,
