Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You.
[The Lord speaks.....]
There is a torment that occurs in certain souls. There is
an agitation that occurs that is a spirit of revenge. Let Me tell
you about this spirit, My lambs. For it can wreck havoc in your soul.
I am a God of Love. I say to Love one another, for this is
the Command I have wrought. I expect you to obey if you call Me your
God. Lambs! Are you My followers? Then truly, come and
follow Me. Live in the same abandonment of heart which I did.
Furthermore, My lambs, I tell you that you cannot accomplish any of this
on your own. That is why I am begging you to be willing to BE in
Me. For this is the method by which you shed the outer coverings
of the world which have hidden your beauty. I would reveal you to
the world, My little child, but you must be willing to be reformed by Me.
You must be willing to leave behind the world and its ways for My Sake.
And so.....revenge. Yes! That tool that so many use to
harm another because of an action first levied upon yourself. But
look, O lambs, at the atmosphere in which revenge grows! It is prideful.
It is self centered and self opinionated. It is generally empty of
My Light, but more filled with the darkness of the enemy. It wears
disguises. And sometimes that disguise is called, "Just Cause."
O! How very tricky is the enemy! So many disguises! So
many temptations! And all too many victories.
I enter the Law. I say to Love one another. I say,
I show, that it can be done.....to stand and take the insult. That
the Will of My Father be accomplished. In a moment of such suffering,
every heart must be focused on Me. Every heart must be willing to
be My Own. And I will whisper Truth to every heart who comes to Me.
For see, My lambs, there is a great delicacy in bearing the insult of another.
And you must remain confronted with Truth. I am the Source of Truth.
DO be focused on Me. I am the Way. And I will show you
the way. All valid suffering achieves the Will of My Father.
I say "valid suffering" for if you do not stay focused on Me, you may be
suffering when it is not by My Father's Will.
O lambs! Can you not truly see that you cannot accomplish any
good thing without Me? Focus on Me! Focus on Me! For
if you look aside, you may be so easily led down a road of revenge.
Or you may just as easily be led down a road of self pity because of your
unforgiveness.
My Way is Simplicity and Grace. Simplicity of heart.....your
heart to Me.....does not mean an "easiness" of your situation. The
Cross has a bumpy road. But in Me, All the Paths lay straight before
us.
O My lambs! So many of you are hurting. I see the emotional
tide upon which you sail, or into which you fall in the turmoil that can
suck you down. O My little lambs! I would hold you to My Breast!
I would ease the pain you suffer by the comfort of My Love! But for
this to occur, you must freely and completely, focus on Me.
See, My lambs, emotions run high in a moment of insult. Emotions
run high on both counts: the inflicter and in the one who receives
the burden. The answer, My Loves, is that you follow ME! My
Way bears all burdens. Because you have listened to My Word:
Come to ME all who labour and are weary, and *I* will give you rest.
Do you not know why My Wounds are still opened, My lamb? For YOU!
Yes, YOU! In one case, My Wounds are open because of the infliction
still being ravaged by My people upon My people. But for YOU, little
one who aches, I ache for you. And I bleed for you. And I throb
for you. C-H-I-L-D! See My Open Wound? I leave
it open that you might have a Place to bring your torment.
My Heart. My Heart. My Heart. Give all your burdens
to My Heart. Child of Mine! Children of Mine! Come, DO
approach This Sacred Heart which is Mine! *I* ache for you!
*I* call to you! *I* invite YOU! *I* beg you! DO come.
My Heart awaits you. Throw yourself into My Loving Heart. I will
consume you and your pain! P-L-E-A-S-E! C-H-I-L-D!
C-O-M-E! Here to My Heart! Here there is only Love. Pure
Love. Holy Love. Gentle Love. No "eye for an eye" Here.
No "get even" Here! Just a complete sense of acceptance Here, as
you are. Wounded. Hurt. Dying. Crying. Come.
Come. Come. Here to My Heart. Even, My lamb, bring Me
that revenge which you bear. I shall accept it. If you will
give it to Me. I have come to make you whole.
Do you see? Salvation has been won. But here you are,
now, in your life. Come, follow Me. Come Here to Me.
Come to My Cross. To My Heart. To My Church. To My Love.
To My Self. In My Body. In My Blood. In My Nature.
In My Love. In My Hands. In My Wounds. In My Breath.
In My Heart. Bathed, yes bathed, in My Love. Please come.
The open Wounds of MY Heart await you. I see you looking. I
see you thinking. Please come! In Silence, I wait. Please
come.
(1 Kings 21:1-16; Psalm 5:2-3, 5-7; Matthew 5:38-42)
