Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,
[Jesus speaks.....]
There is a torment. There is suffering. There is abuse in this world. A heart who suffers for Me is blessed with Grace to endure. With Me, the face of our hearts must be firmly affixed upon the Father; that true purpose of all endurance is for Him. Betrayals, manipulations, inflictions from one hand to your own, never justifies hatred. Love must prevail, and if you keep your eyes affixed on Me, you shall see the lovable moment and your heart shall be filled.If all evil which confronts you was first brought to Me, I would help you to see with clear vision, how to walk through it. I say "how".....leave the how of it to Me. Pray My Name: Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. I rush to your side. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
I say Love. Do not hate. Love your enemy. Hate, only, the sin, for sin IS odious. It is what separates you from Me. In comparison, no illness exists which can equal the death due to sin. All which results in True Life in Me has everlasting value. Do you see Life through a moment of pain? Or through the Hope in all Eternity? .....To know Me, Love, Me, serve Me in this world, that you may be with Me, forever, in the next.
Lambs! Lambs! Lambs! I cannot counsel you that pain is not suffering. For if I did such a thing, My Passion would be for naught. The very act of enduring through suffering for the Sake of My Father, for the abolishment of your sinful stains, gave purpose to My act of suffering. All which is given to My Father has purpose. All which is given will be received back through Grace. God is the Giver of Grace. Come, enter every suffering through the open Wounds in My Body. I am the Portal of Grace. Every ache: bring it to Me. Do not withhold it. Grant it to Me.
Suffering is serious. It has much value. Do not waste the preciousness of this Gift. It leads you quickly to the Heart of My Father, when you willingly lay it on the road, the path that we traverse. Where would be the Love in permitting that which has no value. I am not an ogre, My lambs! I employ you into My Service. Each wage rendered is contingent on the service performed. My tasks vary. None are infliction, but Gift. It is for you to remain openhearted and in full vision of My Glory, that you might come to see and to know My Way. There is sweetness in that moment when you relinquish self to Me. I AM the Way, afterall. Why do you fear Me?
Suffering abounds. You can see it as that which binds you to this earth, or as that which sets you free. You can see the dirt below your feet, or the promise of My Heavens. You can see the wounds inflicted, the world grown small. Or you can see the Immensity of My Heart.
Suffering is meted, surrounded with Grace. Come, see the value in the moment. I do not leave you orphans. I do not leave you burdened beyond your capacity. In fact, in true vision in Me, there are no burdens! One line out of context can mean the doom of your understanding. One suffering not given to Me can cause you great despair. Despair causes your journey to become worldly, fleshy, satanic. For the walk away from Me is to deny Me. To deny Me is to praise the other. It is what he has wanted since his first offense against Me. The true battle is for souls. To distract you, dissuade you, to capture you, when *I* would set you free. I would bind all your wounds. I would make you to be whole, one in Me. But for your willing heart. Your vision. Your being.
Where shall you be? Alone in the world? Or Here in the Company of My angels and saints?
Every tree starts as a plant, a seedling, a seed. Come, little ones, let the seed of suffering nurture your crown of My Glory. I do not inflict, but offer Vision to make Good of all things rendered to Me. Amen. †
