Check Your Heart

#132  May 2, 2013, 10:10 am, St. Theresa’s Before the Blessed Sacrament.

My Words are meant to instill peace.  They come from a Heart of Love that wants to reiterate that it is only love that heals.

It is only love that shows us the Truth of why we are here on earth.

Do not suppose you know enough about this Love to preach on it.  Yet if you heed My Words you will be preaching to your heart all about My Love.   And that knowledge – love known in your heart – can break open the world around you.

You have seen it happen with you – you would never have dreamt possible, yet it has happened and I know because you tell Me how grateful you are. 

So lets take another step in this love journey.

Put aside all your fears and concerns and be willing to hear more about My Love.

Don’t run off.  Sit very still.  Don’t run off into your mind which you may feel is a safer place to be than to be in My Presence.

Yikes.  We sometimes are not sure what Our Lord wants to bring to us so we would rather retreat to a place we think we feel safe.

But if you want to journey with Me you must be willing to step out of your comfort zone – which by the way you have created – not Me.

Are you willing to be challenged more today than yesterday?  That is My Free Will offering to you today.  The God you knew yesterday does not want to be with you today.  Only the God of today aches for your presence today.

Ask Me to share with you something today that you did not experience with Me yesterday.  Please Ask Me.

Did you know Margo that My Presence in these Words solves many concerns of My Precious Ones?

You do not even know as you are writing these Words of Mine that different words will strike different individuals different ways.  And that is all according to My Plan.

I want My People to stretch their hearts wide open to catch all the Words and Phrases I will dictate.  Like throwing wide a net so that My Big Words as well as My Small Words are caught and absorbed into their hearts.

Every Word I speak has the richness and depth of eternity.  None is without great merit and worth.

So we slide over some and concentrate on others.  But that is human nature until you realize that Each Word has marvelous love and message in it.

Take some of the Words I have just spoken.

“Take” – that is an order, yet more so an invitation from Me to you.

“some” – I invite you to look at some of the Words – so that you don’t get too overwhelmed with looking at and trying to absorb too many.

“of” – did you not think I realized that your language needs prepositions to connect one thought to the next?  I want you to understand the flow of My Words, not trying to seek putting them in proper grammatical order.

“the” – does it again refer to the Words of Mine? I don’t rush to speak to you in broken sentences.  You would not stick to the Message long if it did not make sense.

“words” – aaah – such a small word that contains tons of meaning. Just say a word ---- well I have already said it (you are stymied here Margo because you don’t see Me saying bad words.)

Let Me explain – each Word I say has My full authority in it.  I do not say bad words because they do not hold the authority of goodness and grace and redemption and love.  Yet, honoring your free will given to you by the Creator I must admit that I am not shocked by bad words but only saddened to think of the limited worth of these words.

These kinds of words do not open the heart to love or grace or gratefulness or kindness.

Whereas, My Words cover a multitude of eternal needs.

So when you feel so inclined to use bad words, quickly calculate their eternal worth to your soul.  If they do not nourish your soul for the eternal journey, perhaps they are best omitted from your vocabulary.

Replace these words of anger, frustration, meanness, bitterness, callousness with some of My Eternal Words.

So your cry of anger “O Jesus Christ!” turn it into “O Jesus Christ thank You for loving me, or that person or that situation.”

Do not let the evil one have control over your tongue.  He will NEVER speak My Love Words, but will rather offer you false satisfaction in using bad words.

And I, your God, do not think you need Me to translate for you the word ‘bad’.

The evil one will cause you to swear and curse and let you tell your head and your heart that even though the words may be bad, it felt good to say them.

So how do bad words make anyone feel good? 

Aaaah – it only satisfies our ego, not our soul.  It makes us feel like we have some control over the situation whereas we have lost all control by letting him, the evil one, dictate our language.

We seem at times more willing to let the evil one be in charge than God in charge.  It is a subtle error sometimes on our part, yet one that I want so much to make you aware of.

So when you see a circumstance on tv that is horrible, what do you say?  “O that horrible person.  I hope he gets full justice.”

You are cross.  You want some kind of revenge, right?

Yet God loves this horrible person as much as He loves you.  God will be lovingly just.  You don’t want justice – you want them punished.  If God lets them off the hook with His Loving Justice what are you going to say to God?

“But he deserves to be punished.”

Do you mean to tell Me that you who says you believe in Me and love Me are now going to confront Me and tell Me that My Love is not good enough for this person?  That they do not deserve My Loving Justice?

Hmmm.  You had best check your heart before you come before Me to confront Me.  Because all the kind words you have ever expressed to Me about loving Me, believing in Me, following Me have all flown away like dust when you uttered “But he deserves to be punished.”

Check your heart.  Do you really want to follow Me?   I told you that it would be a great journey.  Did I forget to tell you that it will be most demanding on your well-nourished ego?

Think hard on this.  When you go to condemn any situation, you are telling Me that you would like to be in charge instead of Me.  You would do better as ‘the God’ than I am doing

O please be so, so aware of this snake in the grass.  He, the devil, wants you to denounce Me as God in any sneaky way he can.  He delights in the fact that you will call yourself god rather than give true honor and glory to the Only God – the God of Loving Justice.

Bring you heart to Me.  Let us sit together and check it out.  Let us together mend the parts that have been torn apart by our ego. 

Remember, it is all about love – unconditional love. 

Thank you for writing.  Thank you for listening.  Come to Me.  I have the right needle and thread to mend all the torn parts of your heart.
