3:45pm, at home (My Love Graces)
Come aside and sit with Me awhile.
I long to share My Words with the World.
Do they stop and read these?
Some will, others will be too busy to, while others find Me in other
places.
This Book does not trump all others written about Me. That is not the reason I am dictating these
Words.
I want My People to have available to them all the resources
they need to get to know Me and My Love better.
These Words of Mine are needed, yet may not be absorbed by
all.
It does not matter to you one iota. I should say, it should not matter to you one
iota.
I know what is needed and that is not what you need to know.
The beauty of these Words is that they are from Me.
They are Sacred unto themselves. They proclaim Sacred, they reveal the Sacred,
they stand in the Sacred.
My Words do not waft away like dust or a feather. When they land on a craving heart, they
nourish this heart.
The time has come to reveal yet more of Me and yet some may
already feel they know this, and that is ok.
I want My People to know that once their heart hears these Words
it will crave to hear more.
Like you hear a birds song once and you delight in hearing
it again and again.
Now some birds’ songs can be irritating. And you know, some of My Words may be
irritating too.
My Words are meant to reveal to you the Truth of who I AM
and what I Proclaim.
So, don’t be upset if sometimes My Words catch you off guard,
or make you cross.
My Words are not making you cross. My Words are revealing to you, gently, where
your life has wandered from My Embrace.
We get cross because we don’t want to see the Truth and
embrace it.
We would rather defend our words and actions rather than
humbly have them revealed as not really the Truth.
We scramble to make excuses for why we did this, said that,
thought this. Do we ever hasten to
defend ourselves! Right?
When you are ready to defend yourself, I ask you to put one
last piece of armament in place – My Truth.
Can My Truth balance on your unsteady fortress of defense?
Of course you are not going to put My Truth on your armament
because you know it cannot stand there.
You know that if you call in My Truth to help fortify your
fortress, that your fortress will have to take on a whole new shape.
My Truth is so simple that it will dislodge your fortress of
fear, pride, shame, guilt. These pieces of your armament are not built on
Eternal Soil.
Our truth to God can be said in one humbling sentence: “I
did not love You God.” “I do not love
You unconditionally God.”
What a revelation to ourselves (not to God) that we did not
love Him otherwise we would not have turned away from Him and sinned.
Dare I be that blunt with God or do I feel I need to explain
to Him why I sinned?
It all comes down to Love.
Lack of us loving our dear God unconditionally.
This does not come with a slap on the face, but a True Revelation
to our own soul that deep down that is the only reason I sin.
Take any circumstance and it applies to each one.
So perhaps our new admission to God should not be “Lord, I
have sinned” but rather, “Lord, I have
not loved You.”
It is not what we have done, our sins, but what we have
failed to do --- to love.
That is our one and only reason for sinning --- we have not
loved God.
I have sinned, I have sinned expresses our fallen nature.
I have not loved You, God, opens the door of our soul to be
eager for the Graces to Love God more.
Does this make sense?
We most certainly can be repentant for our sins but when I
truly admit that really I have sinned because I have not loved God, then your
heart is more ready for renewed Graces of Love.
It takes humility to tell God your sins, but greater
humility to tell Him it is because you don’t love Him and that is why you have
sinned.
You see, we want to, we need the Graces to acknowledge our
sins. However, we don’t think to say I need more of God’s Love.
We come repentant, yet do we come asking?? How can we ask for something from anyone when
we know we have offended them?
Would you apologize to your neighbor for breaking their
fence and then ask them for a cup of sugar?
So we are with God.
We sincerely express our sins, yet we don’t think we can turn right
around and ask Him for tons of more Love Grace.
Sure, we know confession comes with Graces, but we may have
thought they are Graces to help us sin no more, or less.
But I ask you to ask Me for Love Graces. Be specific with Me because it is because our
Love Graces are running low that we sin.
So don’t leave confession saying “whew, I got that off my
chest” but rather, “thank you God for
topping me up with more Love Graces.”
Our sins keep us focused on ourselves and so many times we
miss out on asking for His Love.
We are so concerned with expressing our sins and saying an act
of Contrition that we truly miss the great opportunity of asking God for a
renewal of His Love Graces.
Do you see the difference?
One we are caught up in getting rid of the sin. The other we need to get caught up in asking
for more Love Graces.
I want you to see what brings you to confession.
It is not your sins, but your lack of understanding that it
is a lack of My Love Graces that you are suffering from.
It does not matter whether it is pride, fear, gossip,
slander, etc. It all boils down to a low
level of My Love Graces in your soul.
So take this revelation to your heart and sit with Me and
let us pray on it together. Let it
reveal to you what sin really is.
God Bless each one of you.
Come to Me and allow Me to increase My Love Graces in you.
So, be in the world in Love and with Love -- My Love permeating your soul.
