Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[Jesus speaks.....]
My children, hear Me. I have said to focus on Me. Do you? When do you? Do you talk to your friends first, and THEN Me?Children, it takes practice to un-learn the worldly ways and to re-learn the Ways of God. ALL THINGS should be founded in prayer. It is *I* your LORD Who Desires to be a part of YOU. Would that your desire for Me would grow. Where are your eyes, O children? Upon whom do you gaze? Why, in so many instances, do you come to Me LAST? Yet, the last shall be first; and so, in Perfect Endurance, I wait upon my people.
I should like to speak about this article of focus.
To My priests, I say: focus on Me! It is *I* Who have called YOU into service in ME. The world should seek and find its own place, My sons; but for YOU I require service: service to My people, your brothers and sisters. Children, you are called into a DIRECT service in Me. You have been called apart from the world, not to improve your position, but to better your posture in service, as have I, Myself, done when I was among you. I ask you to LEAD from a life in prayer. I ask you to LEAD that they might FOLLOW. Children, it is wrong to hold My people back from Me. Their posture is to come before Me. Why do you not encourage them? Why do you withhold them from Me? What do you do to elevate My people to Me? I would see My people nearer to Me because they are being supported by your bent bodies, lifting them closer and closer to Me.
Some of My people are very close to Me. They have not been elevated by you, My priests. I have called and they have heard. And Here they are, before Me now. They would elevate YOU, O men who I have called. All things, both instances, is about focus, focus on Me.
All things must be measured by your place before Me. In every sea of turmoil, turn to Me. In every calm, still sea, turn to Me. In all leadership, turn to Me. In every breath, turn to Me. O, M-Y P-E-O-P-L-E!! YOU ARE FAILING BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT HANDED ALL THINGS OVER TO ME!
I am God! I have created you to know Me. Love Me. Serve Me. Do not present a complicated excuse for how you accomplish this! You cannot know Me, truly know Me, by telling ME Who I am! Knowledge of Me rises in a PURE and SIMPLE heart. A quiet heart. A stilled heart. A focused heart. And children, how can you Love Me if you do not truly know Me? Simple answers; simple hearts. [.....I see the Lord smile tenderly.] And how is it that you serve Me? Do you reserve as much time for ME as you do for YOURSELF? So? You go off to relax, to be renewed? Just who do you serve when you return? What has changed? Where am I? Do you ever ask ME how it is you should serve? Do you wait to listen to Me? Or do you proceed in logic? You can find Me in logic, I created it. But do you ever seek Me there?
All I ask is your focus, your attention! I have come to Abraham! HE listened! See Moses! HE listened.
Listen. Listen. Listen.
Focus. Focus. Focus.
Learn. Learn. Learn.
Live. Live. Live.A hundred times. A million times. Until you learn. *I* shall repeat this lesson for you. Listen. Focus. Learn. Live. I am Here. Where are you?
In Love do I teach. In Love may you learn. Amen. †

With Love, in the Two Hearts,
