Title:  "For where you look is where your focus is.  And if your focus is not fine-tuned, you chance the missing of our meeting."

Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,

[The Lord speaks.....]
I place a longing in every heart to pursue Me.  There becomes, then, a struggle between the world and the flesh and your spirit.  It is a struggle for focus.  For where you look is where your focus is.  And if your focus is not fine-tuned, you chance the missing of our meeting.  O lambs!  I have come to you so that there could be a new and holy intimacy between us.

Though you are IN the world, you are not to be OF it.  Do you understand.  The world I have created is Good and it is the place where you are to live out your earthly life.  But for you to focus on the world as your god is very wrong.  Do you see what I mean of focus?

I have given you flesh in which to live.  But to worship flesh beyond Me is wrong.  To desire flesh beyond Me is wrong.  Your focus is to be upon Me.....you in Me where you are in the world, as you are in your flesh.....Do you see now?

Will you see Me when I come in your midst?  If you are alive in Spirit, you shall.  Regardless of the "package" in which I choose to come to you, you shall surely know Me, IF you have been pursuing Me as I allow you, as you allow Me to pursue YOU!

Holy intimacy.  Here, now.  In the world.  In your flesh.  All in My Due Order.  All in Obedience to My Word, My Way.  Do you see?  I am here to clear your vision, children.  Will you let Me wipe the scales from your eyes?  For surely, you have come to realize how very blind you are.  And if you have let Me improve your vision, then you have realized how much improvement is still needed.

Focus on Me.  Be in Me.  Live in Me, in My Word......When have I not said these things before?  When have you begun to truly LIVE in Me?  When?......Now?......Perhaps it shall be.  THIS is True Life.  Now.  In Me.  ARE you willing to pursue Me in your vision, your focus?  Your life?  Well.....why else would we be here, now, you and I?  I AM a God of Purpose, little ones.  And My Purpose is YOU!  Let YOUR Purpose be ME!

Amen.  Think.  Live.  Amen.    †
