#44 Oct. 22/12, Monday, 9:40am, St. Theresa’s chapel (Your purpose!)
So when you settled in My Heart you heard many things. At first it did not make sense but soon you caught on.
You heard the wind stand still, you heard the spider throwing out his tendril web, you heard the sea gull swallow, you heard the suction from the clam disappearing in the sand, you heard the yelp of some animal somewhere.
Of course you did not ‘hear’ humanly, but you heard with your heart in Mine.
You heard the lady bug fold her wings.
Each of these things you heard are all part of My Creation. They all blend in with the gentle nature I Created.
You are thinking some things that happen in nature are not gentle. Perhaps to your eyes and senses.
Yet all Creation falls under My Creating. Life and death are all part of Creation. The word gentle is not as you perceive it – but in accordance with My Will.
Do not stop to try to figure Me out. I am fathomless, but rest assured what I say is True and, when I tell you, it is for the benefit of all.
Each one of you wants Me to be Me for you. But I am not.
You cannot conform Me to your liking. You can only sit in awe at all that you don’t know and still I Love you for it.
You do not have to know ALL, that is not your role. Ask Me what I want you to know.
Go on Ask Me!
So you asked.
And My answer is – to know that I Love you. Nothing else matters!
This line seems to flow through all these writings – yet it is such an invaluable phrase for you to know and to know that it comes from Me – the Know-er of ALL things.
If anything else mattered, do you not think I would share it with My Beloved Ones.
Of course I would – that is what Love is all about – sharing the deepest Truth of All – you are Loved, and you are Loved, and you are Loved.
There is nothing else the human heart desires than to be Loved. Yet it is so afraid to leap in and trust.
My Heart is an open book. It speaks of Love, it offers Love, it nourishes Love, it consoles with Love.
Do not take your eyes off My Loving Heart.
Be still and ponder Me. Ponder My Love.
Sit cozily in My Heart and listen to the rhythm of Love. It will capture you, enrapture you, console you, enliven you, enrich you, free you, embolden you, enkindle you.
Let Me burn in you. Erase all doubt and let Me set you on fire with My Love, for Love.
Don’t rant and rave at others, but Love them to the highest heights and the lowest depths. Do not judge, but ask Me to judge your actions and words and thoughts and to gently correct them as only I can without judgment or confusion.
I will show you how to act, what to say, what to think if you will only ask.
You have heard of pray always. Well, let ‘asking Me’ be your constant prayer.
You will pray always, be in communion with My Heart if you ask Me in all circumstances. That will increase your prayer life a hundred fold. Ask for the smallest, ask for the largest.
Ask Me. And see what I can and will release in your life.
I bow, I bend, I adore My dear created ones. Come aside and sit ‘in Love’.
Know that you are adored – what a new phrase for you to hear. But it is true. I Adore you and you and you and you. My Love cannot be contained. It has to flow forth in adoration.
Do you hear the broom? (Veronica is sweeping the altar.) She serves Me with each stroke of that broom.
Come aside and use the ‘broom’ I give you to serve Me.
Don’t hesitate. Don’t debate. Just simply come aside and be willing to do My Will. It takes so much more courage, grace and strength to do My Will instead of yours.
Believe Me. It is much easier to follow one’s own human will than to allow one to forget all their intentions – no matter how good they are – and ask to follow My Will.
Do not look to you to solve your problems. Look to Me for all your needs, big or small.
You can’t hide your wants and needs from Me. You can choose to make them more important than choosing My Will and, would you believe, I honor that due to your free will.
But I still know what they are and how restricted they are until they are placed before Me.
They may seem a mountain in your eyes yet they are never insurmountable in Mine. Some do not even deserve your attention and going to Me with them can take a lot off your plate.
Search Me. Ache to know Me. Desire My Words in your heart and no others.
Accept the Graces I pour forth that enable you to choose obedience to My Will.
This obedience does not make you a slave, but rather lifts you to the heights of a servant to which all have been called.
Isn’t it crazy that we hate, avoid the word service, servant, yet I have said “the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve.” (Mt. 10: 35-45)
So to be My Followers, one must serve.
Knowing this purpose only can free you. There is nothing else to seek.
Cry Alleluia – you have found your purpose!
