First Week of Lent, Wednesday, March 4, 1998
Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
Daughter, you sit poised to write for Me? (Yes, my Lord. In prayer, in Tongues, my heart is praising You in language You have given it to pray. And yet this body who I am as well is waiting to serve You, my Lord. For the dictation of Your Words Which flow so generously from Your Precious Mouth!! I bow before You, my Lord!!)
Now child, we shall commence. (Yes, my Jesus; I bow before Your Glory!!)
Children! History! Look! See! Nations in need of repentance! Hearts in need of True Leadership! What has ever changed? I look and see nations ruling aside of My Way. I look and see hearts beating, just aside of My Way.
My children, let Me tell you something. You search for Peace, and I am Here. You search for answers, and I am Here. Children! Hear Me! There is a deception in you midst. And you embrace it. O lambs, I stand before you as your Shepherd. I tell you to follow Me. Yet I look, and I see you mesmerized by the wolf. By his foolish, wasteful ways. By the time which he tells you, you still have to repent, to change your ways! Have you not heard My John, echoing repentance in the desert? Have you not yet believed that praise wrapped around a repentant heart is the oblation I Desire? Have you not yet fully looked at Me upon My Cross to see that Salvation has been won for you because you are, in fact, sinful in nature and all too often in design? Children! Has anything ever changed? Will it? Until you give to Me your heart?
O! You do not understand Me, My Ways! Or you would be Here now, gathered at My Side! If you had understood Me, you truly would have abandoned your own agenda in full trust that I would provide to you all you need. But I look and see you, convinced that you are HERE when in fact, you are THERE. THERE is not where I want you to be. THERE is a matter of choice. And THERE is where you choose to be! But, I am HERE. So I ask you, what shall be done about this predicament? Shall I follow YOU, or shall you follow ME? Who is God, afterall?
Ah! MY WAY ! It is not so appealing to you, afterall? The world entices you, appeals to your nature. My Way is the Cross. You see the pain. I see the Glory. I AM the Glory. Will you follow Me? Would you try?
You have waited all your life for Me to arrive, when I have been here all along! *I* have waited all your life for you to arrive! Here at My Side! What shall we do about this predicament? Do you Trust in My Way? Children, you MUST ask yourselves these questions. And you must come to terms with your answers. O? You do not know the answers? I will tell you; take My Hand. I will teach you. I already have. Come, I will open your eyes.
You search for easy answers. There are none. My Own Life was not an easy answer. Recall, I have suffered and even sweated Blood before My Execution. For even I was permitted a decision. Not of justice to decide My Case, but of Me, My Will to be rendered to My Father. For lambs, the values of which I speak here go beyond the confines of human flesh. I speak here of your Eternal soul. Just what shall be your verdict? It is as though you judge yourself by the actions of your heart. For the outer shell shall fall away. I have come to save SOULS, afterall. And so, you must relinquish your concerns for your human frailty for the condition of your soul. All else will follow. But to tend your eternal soul should be your primary concern. And yet, it is measured by how you Love one another. How you Love yourself. How you truly Love Me.
You search for answers. I am Here. You seek solutions. I have given My Self. Changing your ways. Mending your ways. Being in Me. Do I not satisfy you, yet? Why? You seek solace in the world.
Children, come here and look. I offer Myself to you. Sip of My Chalice. See? It holds precisely what it contains. Until it fills you. Now, come and sip from the cup of the world. Do you notice you are never satisfied? I am Completion. I am God.
You seek a sign. A ray of hope. It is as though you look for salamanders, newts, under rocks in the forest. You look for buried treasure in the sand. You look down. I am Here: look UP! You look outward for satisfaction. I am Here. Within. I am Patient, I shall wait. You will find Me. All will find Me. In the final moment. But I beg you not to wait. Not to waste. Our time.
Children of the world: repent. Become My Mighty nations! You must follow one King. It is I. The nation is in your hearts. My Kingdom is in your heart. I mount My Throne. Will you come to worship Me? Will you stop to see Me?
A Sign! I do not compete with things of this world. I wait. For all to become willing subjects to Me. My Kingdom is with you now. If you cannot yet see it, I ask YOU: Why? +
