Be most careful

(be most careful)

O Sweet Holy One. Thank You for calling me to come and adore You. 

I am so mightily blessed that you are that close to My Heart that you hear My Call.

Do not be discouraged that I call you at any time or maybe not for a long time.  I still walk with you and I want you to know that.

Do not be discouraged those of you who say “Well, You don’t speak to me Lord.”

Are you reading these Words of Mine now?  Then I am speaking to you!!!

Are you listening or do you have another plan for how you want ME to speak to you.

If you are reading and heeding these Words of Mine, then you are mightily Blessed.  You can carry them out easily because ALL they call you to do is Love one another. 

Ooops!  But that is hard says you.  Yet you want Me to speak to you personally and that is what I am doing right now.

Are you listening?  Are you taking My Words to heart and telling Me that you really want to act on them?

Then act on them.  What is the good of these Words to you or anyone if you or they are not acting on them?

You want it even more personal so you can brag about it --- saying you know what God is thinking. 

Yes, you do know the Message I am trying to convey, but you will never know the Mind of God --- it would be too much for you to grasp.

So, back to Me speaking to you.  What do you want Me to say that is greater than any other message?

I think it is a super great Message.  Love one another.  It must be huge, unattainable because many, many, including you, do not seem to get it and want to put it into practice.  Because you fear it will be a waste of your time, or won’t be noticed enough.

So, do you do it to serve Me or do you want something to do that is going to look good on you?  Be most careful.

This could be a trick question. 

Do you want this relationship with Me to give Glory to Me alone, or let a bit of that glory fall on you?   Hmmmm

Ask for the Grace NOT to want Glory or, in other words, the Grace of deep, deep humility.

Dont do it

#825  Sunday, Apr. 29/18   (redbook)   (My Time)

Sit and be still a moment.  Try not to regrasp any thoughts, but rest in this moment only with Me as your companion.    

It is hard sometimes to quiet ourselves, but no matter, if I have asked you to do it, I will supply the Graces that come with it.

What do you wish to share with Me today?  Perhaps nothing.  Perhaps all sorts of things.  Well I am ready to hear either silence or lots of words.

My Heart aches for those who do not realize that they can bring ALL to Me.  Where do you go with your thanks and with your concerns?

Aren’t I the natural One to share all things with?  I am the only one for sure who can fix all the things!!!  So why would you not bring ALL to Me? 

Don’t you hate when I ask Truth-filled questions?   Hahaha

How do you get around it without making up some excuse or story that is not truthful?

You can’t.

So, are you ready and willing to answer Me truthfully why you do not being ALL things to Me.  ALL!

Do you think I have too much to do?  How are you measuring My Time?

Had you ever thought that?  Busy means you are trying to fit a lot of things into one frame of time.  But for Me I am beyond the bonds of time.  So I can never be busy!  That is a word that is used because we are ‘on the clock’.  We talk with a time constraint.  But that is not ME!

So, sorry you have no excuse like “God is too busy for my small problem or concern.”

I tell you right now, in case you have not realized it yet that that is very, very wrong.  Wrong to say because I tell you now --- it is not true and I want you so desperately to know the Truth from the Author of Truth. 

Get busy right now and gather all your ‘things’ and bring them to Me to look over and care for.

It is not in an attempt to keep Me busy!! NO, NO, NO
It is in a sincere attempt for you to recognize the Author of Truth and do as He asks --- Come to Me all who are heavy burdened.

And the burden does not have to be heavy!  But it will not let your soul be free to worship only Me.  And when we persist in carrying our hurts and pains, we are not, cannot worship Me!   Eeegad. 

You have chosen to give more of your precious time to your hurts and pains even the small ones than you have chosen to give to Me. 

Don’t do it.  Free yourself to worship only Me. 

This is not magic

(in April missalette)

Oh Holy Spirit settle in my soul.  Enlighten and enrich me to do the Will of God.

Such an invitation will never be refused.  You may not feel any commotion as the Holy Spirit moves in, yet you must believe in the fullness of your heart that the Holy Spirit has.

Each time we say “Come Holy Spirit”, it happens, so the lesson to learn from this is that the more often we utter that simple prayer, “Come Holy Spirit” the more the Holy Spirit will eagerly come.

Why do we hesitate to ask the Holy Spirit to come?   Do we not believe in the Holy Spirit?  Do we think it is a hokey thing to do?  Will we feel disappointed if we do not feel magically touched? 

Hopefully you will not feel magically touched.  This is not magic.  This is the Fullness of God’s Spirit coming to dwell in a heart that is eager for such guidance.

Welcome the precious Holy Spirit.  Depend on the Wisdom, Understanding that the Holy Spirit eagerly shares with you.

Come Holy Spirit Come, Come Holy Spirit Come,  Come Holy Spirit Come.

Great bedtime thought

#824  Mon. Apr. 23/18,  11:15pm,  at home     (redbook)

Time flies!  But how does it move?  Who moves it? 

It is not the clock that invented time.  Yet our bodies move ahead to another night.  Or is it that we are standing still and time moves?

Interesting also that time ages us.  Yet, not the physical, scientific time, yet time finds us getting and looking older.

Who wants to have time stand still?  And where?  And when?

Who would be in charge or would we take time to make it slow down.

What a miracle that we do not have any control over time itself.

Now yes, we can waste time, but that neither slows it down nor speeds it up.

So, does sit come down to how do we best serve the Lord in the time He has allotted us?

A great bedtime thought.  Will I endeavor tomorrow to better use the time God has allotted to me?

Flow over me Graces

#823  Sat. Apr. 21/18,  6:30am,  at home   (redbook)

Flow over me Graces from God.  May you find a receptive soul Lord that awaits your Graces and Love.  

What a beautiful prayer that welcomes the Lord each day into your heart.

The Graces I have for you this day are more than sufficient for your day.

So, when things arise, know that you already have the Graces needed to see you through.

I do not want you scrambling to beg for these Graces in frustration and worry.  Just this simple prayer at the start of each day will suffice.

Yet, you will notice that you will return throughout each day to top up these Graces by your gratitude for Me walking with you and leading you this day.

Your soul, at the start of the day welcomes these Graces and during the day thanks Me profusely for having given me these Graces to see me through.

Bring Harmony

#822  Wed. Apr. 18/18,  12:20pm,  St. T. before the Blessed Sacrament
Kas book    (bring harmony)

Come closer and tell Me all that lies on your heart.  Share the ALL of you with the ALL of Me.

I never tire of hearing all about you and how you perceive the ALL of you.  I wonder if it is as I perceive you?

You can ask Me to share with you what I feel you may need from Me this day.  And continue as you do to ask Me to direct you in all sorts of ways.

That keeps you informed as to what I want from you and what best you can do to serve Me.

It is never a waste of your time to ask Me “What do You want me to do next Lord?’  It continues to bring us together in harmony.  Can you imagine all the suggestions I want to share with others only to have them never expressed because I am not asked “What do You want me to do next Lord?”

We sometimes ask to know His Will, well just ask Him what you need to do next and let Him express His Will to you.

We forget it is as easy as that!  Ask the Lord what do You want me to do next --- a very simple question that truly brings harmony to our relationship and the World.

We don’t see this as bringing harmony to the World, yet if each of us asked the question and acted on His Response, there would be harmony throughout the World.

Now, just because everyone throughout the World is not doing this, does not mean that we need not do it.

As if in frustration, we feel that if only 1 or 2 of us are doing this it isn’t worthwhile because how can it bring harmony to the World?

But, if you do not start, then there will be no harmony in your small corner of the World!. Right??

It only took One of Me to save the World, so everyone’s small effort will bring more harmony than strife to the World.

So, look at it this way, that your one seemingly small effort can have a huge effect in your World.

So, you will ask the question with a smile on your face because it is not a foolish futile question but one that teaches you the Grandeur and Purpose of the Lord in action through this small effort of yours.

Adore Me

#821  Sun.  Apr. 15/18,   10:45a.m.,   at home

Come adore.  Right now.  I have asked this many times and this is another --- not just another, because you have not walked with Me in adoration at this time of your life --- never before, never after.

See how I want to fill more of your day with Me!

I am ever so thoughtful because I know each of you leads a busy life and needs a reminder to come aside and adore Me.  Make Me the center of whatever you are doing.

It is easy.  When you are doing dishes, shoveling snow, weeding the garden, sitting just in a relaxed mode, step aside in your mind and adore Me.

Thank Me for being in the garden with you, out fishing in a stream with you, climbing a new hill.  Thank Me for being there with you. 

What a blessing that with Me you can do more than one thing and the one thing that you are doing will be better done if you have thanked Me for coming along.

You do not have to give Me permission to be there – I am with you always.  However, you now realize that thanking Me is your acknowledgement that you understand My Words “I am with you always.”

We are no longer children asking the parent to come with us, but adults thanking the parent for being with us.

For those of you who may be hesitant to believe in a God who is with you always, just make it a practice to thank the God, whom you don’t know, for being with you.

It will put a smile on your face to thank the God that you may not believe in fully or even at all for being with you.  It certainly will be no skin off your nose for thinking this to yourself.

No one will hear.  You won’t embarrass yourself by looking as if you believe in a God that is your constant companion whether you have chosen Him to be or not.

Even believers,  I invite you to thank Me at all times and places for being with you.

It is such a step up in our prayer life --- not asking Him to be with you but firmly and faithfully believing that NO MATTER WHAT I am with you always.

Have you thanked Me yet today for anything, everything?  It is never too late to start!!

Now, go, feed My Sheep.
