Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,

[Jesus speaks.....]
The Authority of God governs man, a man who gives his heart to God.  For I shall not govern that which chooses to deny Me.....that is My Will.  He who sees Me knows Me.  He who knows Me Loves Me.  He who Loves Me serves Me.  All things are subject to My Authority yet I allow those who willingly walk from Me or deny Me, to go their way.  Those who choose Me begin to flock to Me as the heart recognizes more and more, My Way.  All of Life in Me is a process in you.  It is a process of knowing, Loving, serving Me.  Truly, children, all of your discovery is a Gift from Me.  And so, when one who has truly discovered Me turns from Me, it is a VERY grave offense!  He who dines at My Table and shuns Me, he who denies Me, is a victim of his own mortality and his own free will.  For Faith is a Gift of God, and to deny Faith for self-serving pride is a VERY serious, sometimes mortally wounding offense.  But the choice is yours:  Faith lived, or choice away from Me.

It is a delight in the heart of every parent to see Truth alive in the heart of one's child.  It is a delight to see Faith lived out.  It is a stab to the deepest part of Heart to see Faith die, when True Life had been given.  Mercy, My Mercy, endures forever, but the stab, the pain is real.

I have taught many times to Focus on Me.  If you do not do this, you will be tempted by the world and you will follow that siren's call.  It is so easy to be lost in a world of temptation, because that world is as close as your heart.  It is for this reason that I have said:  Remain with Me.

Children......My Words are Real.  My Words are True.  My Way.....or yours.  My Eternity.....or the one you choose.  Bowed to Me or to the world.  Which shall it be?  Will you fill your eyes with the glamour of the world, and let it rob your heart?  Or will you become refined into the gold of My Heavenly Kingdom by living in a State of Grace?  The choice is yours......yes.  But the Gift by which you make the choice is My Own, given to you freely.  Freely accepted by you or denied.

O!  I long to take you into My Hands and mold you firmly according to My Will.....to save you from the possible tragedy of your life.  But I allow you the Freedom to chose right from wrong.  I give you all you need for the proper decision.  I have given you.....Me.  Is not My Life enough?  Or is yours more important?

Here is My Hand.  Accept It or deny It.  Your vision is My Vision if you would but open your eyes in My Light.  Come, follow Me.  You have heard this before.  Let our journey commence in the Light of Truth.  All that you have from Me is what you need.  All that you need I give.  Why do you search for empty wealth.  Recognize Me.....what more could you want to see?

I am the Lord your God.  Let there be no strange gods before you. The worship of idols is the worship of self.  It is the quickest way to the loss of your soul.  Pride kills.  It mortally wounds souls.  Put down the instrument of destruction and focus on Me.  Let the battle be won in MY Sight!  Not to the shrieking delight of the enemy.

Be Mine.  Now and forever.  Amen.    †
