Seek lowly

#181  Thursday, Sept. 12/13, 9:45am, St. Theresa’s, Before the Blessed Sacrament

I call you to come aside from all the earthly cares and dwell in Me.

Remain strong in Me, in My Name Jesus.

Do not take your eyes off the perfect prize --- union with Me for eternity.

How we get distracted by our own thoughts and words and feelings of grandeur.

I don’t want you to feel lowly.  I want you to seek lowly.

Your lowly and My Lowly for you are quite different you see.  So ache in your heart to be lowly as I want you to be.

Do not clamor for attention, center stage, all-knowing.

Clamor to be silent and sit and absorb My Wisdom that I want to share with all of you.

Can you imagine what I know that you do not know?

So I have ALL the answers, so why would you not always check with Me?

I desire to share My Wisdom with you, however many times you are more concerned with your wisdom and thus do not reference Mine.

Beg and ache to share in My Wisdom, NOT so you can claim how wise you are but so you can proclaim My Wisdom to the World.

Take great care not to want to appear all-wise.  Remember how pride can sneak in.  So the Wisdom you share with others from Me won’t even reflect back on you even in the slightest way.

So how can you get My Wisdom and not brag about it or let the light of praise and gratitude, which only I deserve, fall on you.

Let Me make you very lowly. Let Me make those who receive My Wisdom be grateful to Me and not to you.  Let Me enter their hearts so they see any gratitude they have for My Wisdom they realize won’t work if they give credit and honor to you.

Strip yourself of all need for glory and praise.  Better still, let Me strip you of all need for glory and praise.

Ask Me for this.  Beg Me for this.

Before you share My Wisdom, take it to prayer asking that I remove from you the need to be praised and thanked as you share My Wisdom with others.

This prayer then frees you from this need and frees My Wisdom to flow over others.

So hastily ask Me with this prayer to remove your need for praise and gratitude.

If someone asks you a question  --  just run to My Sacred Heart and ask Me to remove your need for glory.  This prayer will only take seconds but will cover a whole lot of your pride need.

Ask Me to still the hearts of those who hear My Wisdom from you.  Still them so they will only feel and express praise and gratitude to Me and not to you.

You have to be willing to be lowly if you truly want to share My Wisdom with others.  You do not have all the answers.  I do.  I will share them with many of My People if they first and foremost seek to be made lowly by Me.

So do not look for praise from anyone on anything.  Now that is not easy.  Yet it is something I encourage you to beg for from Me.

Release your soul everyday to Me. 

I have told you to beg, ache for a new heart each day – yes?  And having received this new heart from Me, now release it to Me.

Sounds complicated?  But listen to My Point.

You beg Me daily for a new heart.

I give you a new heart daily as you request.

Now release this new heart into My hands.

If you get a new heart daily, do you think it will manage well outside My Guidance? NO.

The circle of union gets deeper and deeper.

n      you ask

n      I answer

n      you return

n      I fill

It is very simple, yet not always easy to do because we think “well I have to take soul charge myself for my life.”

And that is oh so true.  Yet what better way to take charge of your life than to hand it all over into My Loving Care.  You see you have a choice.  I have not taken away your free will.

I ask you to use your free will in such a way that will benefit you profoundly – for the good of your heart.

Can you imagine how rich in love the world would be if we chose good, chose to do good, think only good, act only good?

Take any circumstance and ask “Where was the good?  Where could there have been more good?”  By good I mean unconditional love.

That is why the world does not abound in good because we have taken away our unconditional love.

We have looked at a lot in this writing.  Let My Words speak to each of your hearts.  Let Me be the one to whom you give praise and thanks for the Wisdom you have gathered here today that will nourish your new heart.

God Bless each of you abundantly today and may you go forth knowing how much Jesus loves you.
