Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[Jesus speaks....]
Sweet thing, hear Me. I am a God Who has permitted humanity to chastise Me. [I understood, His Passion.] That you would better come to know Me because of how I so Love you. How much pain can one endure for the pure Love of another? Do you see what occurs in that moment, children? The focus is important. For women in labour, the trial becomes endurable because of a chosen focus. For a martyr, the death becomes holy because of the focus, the Focus on Me. For Myself, I endured all I did because of My Father's Love. Without My Eyes, My Vision upon Him, the distracter would have entered My Vision. It is for this Reason I say: Focus on Me.Ah, My lambs! Do I so often repeat Myself? Yes? Well? Where are you? So often do I see you slip from My Gentle Grasp. For I would not keep you unless you chose to remain. And so often do you get swept away, like a tide, to the things of this world.
Lambs, I tell you this: I ask you this: Look for Me in each and every moment. You must train your minds and your hearts as you so willingly do your bodies to the exercise of focus. When will you learn that you live within the battlefield for your soul? You have a distinct advantage, lambs, for *I* have already won the battle! The Victory is Mine! Now, it is for you to decide if you would be part of the spoils of the enemy or of the camp of your Holy God. Do you not yet see this vision? O children, do you still believe that your spirit can be satiated by the things of this world? I tell you: you cannot. And I say this with the conviction of being your God, your Creator. I KNOW My creation. I KNOW your spirit. For within it, I dwell.
Yes, lambs, think of this fact. When you enter a sinful situation, I am there. I witness Firsthand to all that you do. And in those moments, I Who am God, am covered [I understood His Presence is hidden] by you and your sin. YOU cover the Light Which is Me. YOU decide to darken your own soul. Have I not said that I would not leave you orphans? That I would be with you for all time? And for those in whom I dwell through Baptism, these moments of sin are very grievous times. Yes, I forgive; but are you TRULY repentant?
Children, I ask you this because YOU ask much of Me. You would have Me reward, grant, your every request. And I would. If you had heard all My Word and entered a Life, freely, within My Will. For I would not grant that which would harm you. I would not grant that which would lead you astray. I would not grant anything which would not assist you in your journey to Me. But you do not see with My Eyes, My Vision, My Wisdom. If you did, you would fully understand My Ways. But your vision cannot see that broadly. Trust Me, lambs, and remain in Me.
O daughter! I would share My Heart with My people. Will you continue in Me? (O my Lord! Yes!
I am blessed by You, my Sweet Lord!
Sweet thing, care for him, your son, and return. Will you? (God, I look at Your Request, "Will you" [in this last sentence] and I am in awe of You. Yes, my Sweet Lord! I shall keep Your Holy Name in my heart and upon my lips and I shall return to You, O Loving, Loving Lord!)
[Jesus continues.....]
My Heart is beating with a blood-red Love for each and every one of you. O My little lambs! How I DO Love you! My Heart spills over with True Love, Holy Love, Pure Love for you. And I am a Wounded Lover. Stabbed, jabbed, pierced by your sins, O so many. Yet, I Love you still! I always will. Do you know? I Love you even when you are in the deepest fires of hell! And there, your greatest pain is the knowledge, fully of My Love, yet that you shall never again see My Face. You shall never again feel the Warmth of My Internal Flame. The pain of separation from Me is the greatest torment. And there, souls shall see clearly, only the horrible eyes of the tormentor, Satan. His eyes blood-red with venom and hate. O souls! Preserve yourself from the enemy, NOW! Now while you have the gift of life and breath! NOW is your moment. There may be no other!I have lived for you! I have died for you! To give you hope, to seal the covenant, I have Risen for you. I Ascend that from this vantage point, I might come to judge you. But in every moment, I LOVE you! O lambs! I LOVE you! I do! I do! I do!
Ah yes! You have heard these Words before! For I have always Loved you. And like a truly Passionate Lover, I DO pursue you! That you would be Mine! Further.....that *I* would be YOURS!
Can you comprehend Me? Would you pause long enough to fall, perhaps, more deeply in Love with Me? I am your Holy Spouse. Man or woman: child, I am your Holy Spouse. So intimate is our relationship. So holy is our Love. You are Mine, for I would always Love you.
Children, child, would YOU Love Me? I await the warmth of your touch. I await your yes; your gentle, sheepish glance! I await the quiet, still whisper in your heart. I wait for our first new embrace. O Love of My Heart! Be Mine! Truly! please! Be Mine!
Amen. So be it. Amen. Maranatha: Come, Lord Jesus? *I* say: Come, O holy Love who is Mine! Amen. +
