Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[The Lord speaks.....]
Lambs of every nation, hear Me. I speak in terms of understanding to all who would hear Me. But some are bored, they have walked away. Some are tired, for they feel I repeat Myself too much. Others remain, only to criticize Me, to catch Me up. What has changed?Would I speak for these reasons, or would I speak for Life: your Life in Me. Where are you in Me? Where is your growth? Are you growing, at all? Am I the sun which causes you to grow? Am I the nurturing rain which falls gently upon you? Am I the Source of all life for you, or are you still standing with one foot planted firmly in the soil of the world? You are different than all My creation. O lambs, I have created you from this world, with its confines and inclination to sin. Yet, into you I have breathed My Spirit. I give to you My Gift of Baptism, that you might come alive in Me. Are you alive? O child, are you alive? There is no death in Me, only Life. [I understood that physical death is really ongoing life in the Lord.] What you must do, is to die to the world. You must come to a willing place of casting the world away, into its proper place; that you might begin to live fully in Me. NOW!
Lambs, Who am I? Who do people say that I am? Do they come to know Me through knowing you? Do you reflect any growth in Me? Am I alive within you because you have willingly died to this world? These are the things you must come to live by, that you might be more alive in Me. I have provided all that you need. All requirements for Eternal Life I have laid at your feet, I have breathed into your soul. Will you hear? Do you listen? Will you learn? Do you take the time to attend Me? Children! To grow properly, a garden must be tended. You must be willing to be in My garden. You must be willing to let Me help you grow. You cannot do it on your own. You cannot do it aside of Me. You will shrivel. You will die. Without Me, you shall surely die.
So, if you are to fully understand Me, you must come to a desire to BE in Me. Ah! Yes! Being! I say it repeatedly. Are you trying to BE? Do you say you still do not understand? O child! How could mortal flesh UNDERSTAND this BEING in God? How could you ever comprehend this? Ah! But I would scoop you up and nurture you if you would permit Me. The progress of your growth has much bearing on your willingness to be just a seed. That you might become a seedling, and then, a fine tall plant. Are you willing to let Me lead you? Are you willing to follow? Are you willing to die to self, that True Life might start in Me?
The power of the world and the flesh and the devil is strong. But NOTHING has dominion over Me! N-O-T-H-I-N-G! So, will you render yourself to Me now? For eternal life will occur in every spirit, which is you. All mortal flesh WILL be raised to live eternally. But where you spend your eternity will be contingent upon where you spent your mortal life and HOW you lived your mortal life.
In which garden are you planted? In whose? O little one! You have started your life as a little seed, have you not? And as a seedling, growing, I ask you where you have been. Nothing in your life has power over you if you willingly submit yourself to Me. Now. That we might begin. To grow anew. In Me. By Me. Through Me. That you might truly LIVE in Me. Now.
All life begins as My Hand passes over you. No life exists that I have not permitted. That you create your own life aside of Me, does not mean that I have no knowledge of it. But I tell you this: ALL life is to be judged by Me. And beyond the externals, *I* shall judge the heart. There, in your heart, all darkness WILL be exposed, that My Cleansing Fire might penetrate and heal you. And then, from the ashes of what was, you shall rise as a new being in Me! In Me! In Me! Best accomplished from a Life LIVED in Me. So.....again I say, come! Be in Me. Now. That you will be in Me, forever. Yes? Do you hear? Do you see? Will you live in Me? Or has My Word once again slipped by you because you would not reach out and receive it? In the end, there is you and I. What shall our meeting be? What is our meeting, now? (Amen! Alleluia! God be praised!)
O little ones, I bless you. Lift your heads and hearts to Me that I might grow you, now, in Me. Amen. †
