Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[The Lord speaks.....]
My children, hear Me. I Love you. I teach you. Children, I warn you now of persecutions. They have been since the start. Because Truth is so feared by the enemy, He would attempt to extinguish that which he cannot. And he tries, though he knows the deed is in vain, for in the process he turns souls against Me. And to be odious to Me is his sheerest delight. If you fall into his clutches, he uses you for his thrill to challenge My Law. You who think you lead YOUR life are but pawns of the enemy; for life lived aside of Me is truly somewhere: residing in the enemy camp! Deny this if you choose to, but the fact, the Truth, remains! Persecution starts with your own soul. Rendered to the enemy, YOU have suffered a massacre; however, because of the viper's sting, you do not feel the bite. He numbs you even as he inflates your pride.My lambs, hear Me. If you follow Me, you follow Truth. To follow Truth is to be filled with Light and Grace, to see the value in Me in every moment. With a focus on Me, even death becomes a reward because it is but a step along the way to Eternal Life in Me. Evil, to protect its own lie, must .....is motivated to.....
destroy all Truth around it. The spewer weaves a web of lies so that all who follow, see sense where in fact, there is nonsense. But this is not to be treated lightly.It is for this Reason I have begged you to come and follow Me. To focus on Me! Make your every moment in life one worth living; that in death you would rise to My Eternal Life.
The hour is coming once again when many souls will be rendered to Me. But there are many forms of persecution. Not all suffer a martyr's death, My lambs. Some feel the sting of insult constantly. HOW you live through persecution is the teacher of all. To control one's tongue during such suffering is a very great gift to Me. I say, focus on Me that you might see My Glory, My Grace, in EVERY moment. Look and see the Life in every moment, even Life within death. Give all the Glory to Me. I am God. All things are subject to Me.
Do not fear trying times. Rejoice! For you have been drawn O, so close to My Meal: My Body, My Blood, My Sacrifice, My Cross. It is in times of great suffering that you are richly blessed by the Power of Love in My Cross. Martyr's blood is spilled to seed the Road of Faith. Persecution of spirit increases strength in the Body. Nothing endured is more than *I* have endured. No slave is greater than his Master. Yet, My Love carries you all unto Me. Run not in fear FROM My Cross. Run boldly in Love TO it. For Here there is Life. True Life in Me!
Pray for the power of the moment: that in every moment you might see My Grace. That you would not miss one opportunity for Grace or its witness in your midst. Truly! Come and rejoice with Me! Sing praise and alleluia! Because in every thing, every moment as well, you see Me! My Glory abounds and leads all things, all peoples to Me. But you must walk, step by step, to Me. Regardless of how. Regardless of where. For I Love you. You are Mine. I am yours. Let us BE. One. In all things. Now and forever. Amen. +
