Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,

[Jesus speaks.....]
True blessedness IS revealed in the heart of the bearer, when there is no bend in The Law within it, when all I have preached, when all I have taught, when all which I teach is more than observed, but LIVED.  No more.  No less.  For more may be your own pride, enlarging upon the simplicity of My Word.  Less may be your lethargy, laziness, slothfulness, and still your pride......for you would see more in YOUR word than My Own.

To follow Me is to obey Me.  To obey Me is to live My Word.  By the Grace I pour forth.  By the Grace I have already bestowed.  All which I give, I give that you would come to be whole, one, in Me.  But you cannot be whole in Me unless you put on the mind of Christ, as Paul has taught you.  [ref. to St. Paul's epistle]  You must come to freely abandon  your own mind for Mine.  All things must be crushed within you, for My Sake.  What you cling to, in many cases, is as a greased slide.....Your growth upward to Me is severely retarded by your incessant slide downward, into self.  I would lift you up, but all too often, you LEAP, you JUMP from My Arms.  I would hold you quietly, stilled near My Breast.  But YOU prefer YOUR way to Mine.  I prefer for you to be.....quiet.....perhaps with what appears to you to be inaction.  But for this moment, our stillness would have achieved MUCH between you and I.  It would have increased your dependence upon Me.  And THEN we would act, according to MY Will, not your own.  P-L-E-A-S-E, child, will you cease in bringing to Me little gifts of your own busy creation, when all I had asked is that we.....BE?!

See My Mother's heart.  It is pierced.....yes.....despite her sinlessness.....That she would have an opportunity to truly LIVE in Me.  That the True Value of even HER Faith would be tested.  And what do you hear of My Mother's life?  .....Veritable nothing.  Because she chose to BE in Me and to let ME.....BE!  Do you see?  .....If I, the Lord, am asking you to BE, then THIS is the action I require of you right now.  .....So that when we DO move on, it would be MY Way, not your own.

Obedience.
Where are you in obedience?
Where are you in Me?
Being.
What is the state of being within you?
Where are you in Me?
I ask.  Please answer Me.  Amen.    †
