#470 Tues. Jan 5/16, 10am, St. Theresa’s,
before the Blessed Sacrament
Come My People, bow low and give great
thanks for My Mercy.
The ‘bow low’ is not a sign of servitude
but rather a sign of fully acknowledging that My Mercy is the only Mercy anyone
should experience. Bowing low takes you
out of the picture allowing My Mercy to flow over all.
You saw My Mercy this morning when a
certain person’s name was brought up. I
am Merciful because I want you to see how much un-love you have still in your
heart.
Just when you think you are doing ok, I
insert Myself boldly into your life.
Now, at first, you may not see it as Me, but very quickly you came to
realize that it is My Mercy that has, through this circumstance, revealed to
you your still broken, hurting heart.
When it is broken of course it cannot hold
My Love. My Love will drain out through
the cracks and chunks of your heart that are missing My Love.
You presume to think that your heart is
doing fine. I presume that it is not as
healthy as you would like it to be, and thus I place you in certain
circumstances that show there is still lots of un-love abounding in your
heart. Even a little un-love is too much
for a heart that really and sincerely wants to Love.
So what we see as a circumstance we don’t
want to be in today ---hearing mention of a certain name – yet I, in the
Fullness of My Mercy, knew that you had to hear it and then on hearing it,
after the ire started to bubble up, you realized it was My Mercy that brought
you to hear these words that upset you, so then you can come to Me and address
this still lingering problem.
I want you Loving. I don’t want you to think that you are all
loving and all forgiving when you really aren’t.
Now that sounds like I am being mean. But no such thing.
You beg Me, you ache in your heart to be
ever closer to Me and this is one of the ways --- accepting My Insight that you are not as
loving as you really want to be.
We should not be so proud as to pat
ourselves on the back as to how much we have improved.
Rather, we are to humbly keep asking Our
Lord to make us more Loving. And then we
have to be heart-ready to see how He presents opportunities to us to be more
Loving.
Our hearts have to be ready to be
instructed by the not so obvious, at times we aren’t even thinking of receiving
His Mercy.
How Merciful I am. I give you so many opportunities, time and
time again to work on Loving each other more and more.
I do not leave you alone to struggle with
this task. I am with you always
revealing My Mercy to you in all sorts of ways, at all sorts of times.
So when you feel your anger starting to
boil or your pride wanting first place, or your un-forgiveness holding on
tight, then realize and rejoice that really this is Me being Merciful to
you!
Do you get it ? I am allowing these emotions in you to raise
their ugly heads so you can see there is more that you and I together have to
work on. Your soul still needs more
fixing.
Now this should not be moments of
discouragement, but moments of rejoicing because I have answered your prayer
that you want to closer and closer to Me.
I do not carry pride or un-forgiveness or
sin of any kind. So, if you want to be
more like Me, let Me reveal to you what needs fixing in you.
Do not ever take it as chastisement but
rather as enlightenment --- Me speaking to your broken soul endeavoring to mend
it more and more.
Do not become discouraged that this
infection still is in you. It may take lots
of My Medicine to heal it. And if so, be
ever so grateful that I am a patient doctor who wants dearly to see you healed
and will not stop till you are.
My Mercy is not only that I heal, but that
I will reveal to you daily what needs to be healed.
Are you as Merciful as this? Who will you offer My Healing Mercy to
today? It does not even have to be
verbalized to the person, but tell Me whom you want to throw My Mercy on today
and it will be done in far greater abundance than you could ever imagine.
Let My Mercy rain!
“Jesus, let Your Mercy rain.”
