Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[Jesus speaks.....]
We are about doing the Will of God. Through trial and error, through knowledge of the Law, through obedience have we learned. I say "we" because I have lived among you. And I have lived through trials. And I have witnessed firsthand, your error which has left an imprint on My Hands, My Feet, My Head, My Side, My Body. Yet, I have remained in Obedience to My Father, and so, I have done His Will.I have been temporarily lauded on My entrance to Jerusalem. Yet, I have been crucified by those who had so recently rejoiced at the Sight of Me. See, My lambs, that My Focus was never on them; it remained fixed upon My Father. And for them who rejoiced, did I pray: Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.
Have I not said to you yesterday that longevity in Me is needed as you follow Me? See, lambs, that followers are given the Grace to endure, but it is for YOU to have the willingness to pursue Endurance!
Life is not always as we would like it to be, is it? It is for that Reason, that you must stay focused on God. It is very important that you LIVE the Will of God. That you KNOW as you live, that within all of Life, there is a Perfect Plan for you to live within. Therefore, I say to measure all things by the Will of God. Grace will see you through the most severe storm. But you must be willing to submit all things to the Will of God. To patiently wait for My Perfect Plan for you. For, I am God, and I Love you so!
There are those who would inflict harm upon you. As you endure, you must likewise render your own temple to the Lord. For I dwell in you and I dwell in the one who inflicts. Pray that you will have My Vision to assuage the situation without your striking back with anger or revenge. Such turmoil rises from a disturbed or sickened heart. And all wounds are healed in Me. Use all things for your greater growth, but render all things to Me, that I might guide you to a fruitful end of the suffering you endure.
Children, a martyr is not one who seeks to be inflicted by the harm another can give. If we are one body, then all work for the common good. To raise each one up as far as each is willing or able to go. Recall often, that I am the Saviour and you are not. How each would be saved is as unique as the Path in the Will of God for each of you. It is for this Reason that I ask you, I adjure you, to remain in True Focus on Me. For by your actions you can expedite the Will of God, or retard its advance. My Will WILL be accomplished in due season. So often, your own pattern delays the fruition of My Will.
And so, I say to render your entire being to Me every moment of every day so that the sufferings you endure are just. So that all of your experience is for the good of your soul. For I have come for YOU. I have come for EACH. I have come for ALL.
In this day, too many flee from the Cross. Yet likewise, some create their own cross. The Cross I have permitted for you is one of Perfection. The cross you prefer will bring confusion.Children, this could be a very complicated situation. But if you remain in True Focus on Me, when you turn your cheek, you will see My Smiling Face alive in your hearts. All the Gifts you need are yours. I do not hide Myself from you, My lambs. But you must accept Me as I am. I am in the quiet moment you have avoided. I am in the enemy who has sought your prayer for Peace. I am in your friend who has longed for a moment of your time. I am in the voice who has called to you, yet you have avoided My Plea. See? You are very good at turning away from My Presence. You turn your cheek very well from the Good you could have done. So, as well, turn your cheek for the evildoer. It may be the very moment of Salvation. By your action, your life, in Me.
Ah! Perfection! I am Simplicity! All Complexity is Simplicity in Me. If only you would render your being into My Care. Come, little one, My Arms are open to receive you. Amen. †
