Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[The Lord speaks.....]
O My lambs who hear My Word day after day, hear Me once again! My sweet things, DO lift your voices and hearts to Me! DO be in PRAYER, constantly. For the enemy prowls and he would choose to devour you. But lambs! If you remain in Grace, if you remain in Me through prayer, what can the enemy truly do? He has no power over Me! Rely on Me then. You become an awful taste in his mouth and he would reject you. But you MUST stay CLOSE to Me. Children! This is NO laughing matter. It is a very, gravely serious time! DO hear Me, little ones!The enemy would whisper words of defeat to you. And then as you listen, he spews you with a fog, that you do not recognize My Way within you, but only the valley of despair, the clouds of darkness. You become consumed in the darkness, rather than willingly submit your soul unto Me.
Many will still reject the Word of God. Many will still reject the Truth. Now I ask you, how else would you have seen this scenario of life which is unfolding in your midst? Little ones, I tell you this: not all see clearly. And you barely do. But you are trying. Yet, even for you, the road is a difficult one. >From where shall come your strength? Yes, I know; many succumb to worldly temptation. The power of the moment is a very powerful temptation. It has taken lives, it has robbed, it has been immoral in sexual prowess. O! So quickly am I lost to you in that moment! And why? Because you have lost sight of Who I am!
Children, there is Light and there is dark. Let Me tell you that which you cannot see clearly in this vision of your moment, now: My Light is utter brilliance! Brighter than any sun! Now I tell you: Truth is that Light which governs, guides your souls. Yet, there is a darkness; a void beyond any imagination. Not only is there darkness, but a powerful sucking like a vacuum to draw you away from Me. In your moments of temptation, you confront these two choices. You see, then, only with human vision, but in reality the draw, the power of Good and evil is before you. Where do you go? Naturally to Me, My Light? Or to the power of Satan? Children! This is the action contained in every temptation you endure! There is a battle for your soul. LOOK AT ME, CHILDREN! THE BATTLE IS WON!! All you need do now is to come and follow Me!
O! How you must make choices! But they are easier to make when you CHOOSE to live in My Light! How shall you endure? By Me. I give you My Church. I bless you with My Sacraments. I feed you My Life.
Children! Do you not realize what *I* have done for you? I have permitted My Breath.....My Word formed into Flesh that you might truly come to know Me. I am your God. Son of God. I have then, given This Flesh to die that you might live. I stay with you always. I give you now, My Flesh to eat, My Blood to drink. I give you My Bride, My Church, Who nurtures you in every aspect, moment of your life! Do you see Me, now? Here I stand before you! I am the Resurrection! I am Everlasting Life! I am Eternal Glory! CHILDREN! I BEG OF YOU! Do not settle for a moment of worldly pleasure which would forfeit your glory in Me!
O children! There are traps. There are snares! There are poisons which would kill your soul! Do not let them enter! Flee from them! Avoid them! Live! Live! Live! In Me! BE in ME!
Yet, for all My Desire, I stand here: your Crucified Lord. I stand here bound or freed by your free will. I choose this. I allow this. Freedom. To be, or not, in Me. And so, I stand here and I pray for you. That we would be one. In My Father. Now and forever. Amen. +
