Dear Jesus and Holy Mother,

[Jesus speaks.....]
There is a time of planting in each one's life.  There is a time of reaping, as well.  All that you need for sustenance along the way is provided.  Why you are, where you are, is a combined effect of My Will for you.....if you are following My Will for you.....and the effect of where and how YOU choose to be.  For I do not MAKE you do ANYTHING; but all things Good, I DO Desire for you!

So, into each one's heart do I plant a seedling of Faith.  Would I plant that which you would not be able to reap?  Am I a wasteful God?  No!  Certainly not!  For I expect a return on My Investment of you, but I wait for YOUR desire to develop into a worthwhile reflection of Me.  I plant you in My Light of Truth.  Why do you prefer the shadows?  Why do you prefer the false light of your own ego?  I nourish you with warm air and cool winds.....seasons of life.....to help you to grow strong.  I send you rains to moisten the ground around you.  But I ask you:  where have you decided to plant yourself that now you are being washed away?  Yet.....even then, I turn My Ear to your cry.  I hear you in your distress, and I would once again mold, refashion, replant you, that you might put down new, strong roots in Me.  I do not set you in motion, little one, to abandon you.  Yet.....why do YOU abandon ME?  Why do you accept My Word at first, only to let it be scattered within your heart where you refuse its root, its footing within you?  Why do you transplant My Word within you to an environment of death?  Why would you kill My Word within you because of your preference for the things of this world?  Blessed are they who weep and mourn, who take refuge in My Arms of Love.  Blessed are they who seek Me, no matter what, for in every storm they see Me as the High Ground of their lives.
 
O seedling!  I have planted you in a fine garden.  But when the wind came, you looked into its eye and preferred its glory to My Own.  Even the wind was praising Me, but you did not hear, and so, you became washed away in the distractions of life.

It is for you to DESIRE to be in Me, for you cannot BE without Me.  It is for you to be WILLING to grow in Me, and for you ta accept an environment in which you WILL grow.  It is for you to cling to Hope, even in the face of every disaster lapping at your shore.  Because your God has said He does not abandon those who are His Own.  And ALL people are My Own.  It is My Hope that all people would turn to Me; though it is My Knowledge that not all will do as I Desire.  And so, the Tears of your God flow upon you now.  That you might know the lessons of life by living them out, day by day.  That what could be termed "disaster" could become the Delight of My Soul because the struggle has given birth to you in My Midst.

There is much to think about in the planting of the seed.  There is much about being seed and where you would grow.  Who shall govern you?  I?  Or will YOU?  To whom shall you bow?  To Me?  Or to your own reflection in your mirror?  To the world?  The flesh?  The devil?  Why would you prefer to grow in rot and in darkness?  Answer Me, please.....Please do.  Amen.    †
