Title: "The further you walk into SELF the further you walk from ME! "

Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
Child..... (My Lord!)
Will you write for Me? (My Sweet Lord! Yes! I thank You, O Lord, for the Gift of serving You.)
What has been renounced for My Sake? When one says "yes" to Me, how big is that word? Or how small? I warn My children who wear disguises! "Yes" is rendered to Me. Do not give your "yes" elsewhere, or you may be lost. You cannot say "yes" to the world and "yes" to Me. One cancels the other out and then you are no longer in Me.....you are in no place. Do not stand accused of idol worship! To look in the mirror and to worship your own flesh is a form of idolatry. To live to satisfy ego is a grave offense. For YOU are to be the servant. It is *I* Who is served! Let us hold up the Light of Truth to all that you do. Remain Pure in Me, or you will quickly fall to the enemy. But what is the enemy? Can you see its presence? For the agenda you bear is so great, that you cannot see beyond it. Do you not see your own conniving ways?
My lambs, DO hear Me. There is a grave offense in your midst. It is the division of My children from Me. Do not stand accused of such a deed. How will you know? For the fog is so thick. Would you permit Me to cut through the fog, that you might see? Would you examine your conscience regularly and Reconcile to Me often, that My Grace would be your strength? The waters upon which all too many sail, are thick with the travails of the enemy. You are drowning, but you think you breathe air. O lambs! The further you walk into SELF the further you walk from ME!
To serve Me is the reason of your very existence. That you better come to know Me and Love Me. You can only come to Love Me better if you come to Love Me more than yourself and that you would Love your neighbor as yourself. Now I ask you this: if by your life, you force your neighbor to do as you do, but not as I want.....is that Love? Is it not, deception. YOU are held accountable for what you have done with your own soul; but moreso, what you have done to those around you.
Child, these words are harsh, yet true. Those who deliberately, for the sake of ego lead My lambs away from Me, will be judged very harshly in the final moment. The fires of hell will lick your feet; and the fires of Purgatory would be My only sign of Mercy toward you.....if you have not sold off the repentance in your heart, as well. Bargaining with your ego is very dangerous, My lambs. Your soul is an infinite creation. Where your eternity lies, is based on where your soul has lived on this earth. Is your house [I understood soul] your own creation? Or do you live for Me? Where is your heart? Deep within your own agenda? Or full in service to Me?
My little ones, hear Me. I give you a Mother, My Own. She guides you, unless you flee from her. But she always prays for your safe return. I give to you the Gift of My Church. She suckles you at Her very breast. To serve Her is to serve Me. All My Life flows through Her. Receive Her whole, intact. In service to Her, to Me. I feed you through My Church. Be nourished and do not misuse the Good Things that I give to you. To be one, whole in Me, is to let go of YOUR way, YOUR agenda, to live a life bowed before ME! This Church is Mine and for you to be truly alive in Me, you must be willing to let go of self to come and follow Me. I have set My Church in motion. I have breathed into Her My Life: My Holy Spirit. A Spirit of Love and Life. Nurturing and Growth. Obedience. Obedience to My Peter of Rome. Yes. Obedience to My Pope. John Paul II. My Pope. His Successor. Each as governed by My Holy Spirit.
Do not be accused of disobedience. To lead a flock over a cliff is a terrible offense. To lose your own soul, grieves My Heart to no end. What is it that you have rendered to Me? Or, have you refashioned your offering and rendered now, all things unto YOU? See, child, I see your heart. You cannot hide from Me. THAT is the greatest deception of your life: that you can live aside of Me, My Way, My Life, My Teaching, My Truth.
So.....you have decided to give Me yourself. How much? All? Part? Are you willing to let ME decide the giving of self? I WILL show you, lamb. I WILL guide you, lamb. For each moment opens and in each moment you can give Me more. Open your heart to Me, lamb. I will help you. But first you must decide who it is you shall serve. Me? Or you? If you opt to serve Me, I shall help you every step of the way. Nothing shall be left untouched by My Healing Hand. But you must become willing to render yourself to ME. All else must go.
If you will it. For this, I wait. For I do nothing without your permission, child. DO serve Me for the Good of all. Let ME show YOU the Good of all. My Way is Perfection. Yours is so tainted by sin. Serve Me perfectly. I will show you the way. In Me, all things work to the Good. In Me, all things grow to fruition. In ME "yes" is grounded to Perfection. In the world, the flesh, the "yes" is grounded to Gehenna. There ARE no other choices, lamb. It is always the same: Me or he. God or Satan. Eternal bliss or eternal damnation. Heaven or hell. What shall your answer be? Be willing to answer with your life.
Now lambs, I speak within your heart. Here, as well, that you might hear Me. The Law of the heart is clear. Examine all that you do in My Light, that all might be measured against Truth. I WILL show you the way. But you must be willing to reach from the earth up into My Hands. Will you let go of the world to come, follow Me? It is a matter of heart. Where is your heart? In Me? Still firmly in the grasp of yourself? Clutched by the world? Or worse.....thrown into the world?
I stand. I wait. For you. One "yes." One act of True Contrition. All things forgiven . All Newness begins. In Me. In Me. In Me. Yes. In Me. Amen. †
