My Body and My Blood.  Do any of you realize the preciousness of these 2 elements?

Let Me explain:  I want you to know their preciousness.  They are to be treasured not as superficially holy but very, very holy.

That means that your heart must come to the conclusion of the preciousness.  Your head has heard it, but now your heart has to absorb it.

Each time you receive Me, ask this precious gift to go straight to your heart.  Ask that all the Graces contained therein expand your seeking heart.

You take in the host physically and I know you thank Me when you receive Me but take Me into your heart and ask Me for all the Graces it contains.

I know you are thankful and thanking Me for coming to little ole you, but it can’t just stop with thanks, it must go into the asking mode otherwise the Graces are stagnant.  

When you are busy thanking Me that is one directional.  When you continue on with asking for all the Graces then it is 2 dimensional.

One dimensional – I come to you and you thank Me for doing so, as you should --- but it doesn’t stop there.

Two dimensional --  I come to you, you thank Me BUT then you ask Me to pour out all the Graces within My Precious Body and Blood into your heart. 

Your thanks explodes into asking.  

You truly believe that not only do I come to you but that in this Sacrament I have so many Graces tied up that are just waiting for you to pull the string of trust – you trust that with this Sacrament it just isn’t Me you receive but Me who abounds in Grace and Mercy.

Unknowingly we sometimes ‘just receive Me’ not realizing the abundance of Graces I yearn to pour over and into your hearts.

So, after you have received My Body and My Blood, thank Me for coming to you, then beg Me to release My Graces into your heart.

I come to you in My Physical Presence and that is how you receive Me.  

However I want to feed your heart and soul and by asking for the Grace that Communion holds in the small host and the precious blood your heart and soul will be even greater nourished.  

Think of all the small prayers you say when you receive Me in Communion – 

“Thank you Jesus for coming to me.”

“I love you Lord Jesus.”

“Fill me with Your Presence.”   Etc. etc. 

Yet the majority of times we do not beseech Him to release all the Graces contained in each Communion.  We are so busy saying thanks or admitting we are not worthy, or asking Him to help us through this situation or that situation that we miss out on begging for His Storehouse of Graces.

Think now.  Think of how many times we have not asked Him for all the Graces contained in His Precious Body and Blood.

So, ask Me now!   

Sit quietly and reflect on all the Communions you have received in your life and now ask Him to release all the Graces that each of those Communions held for your heart and soul.  

He so much wants you to be a healthier and more whole communicant.

He desires that you trust that He can and will release the Graces meant for you in all the Communions over all the years.  What a generous God!

He wants nothing wasted that can be beneficial for our heart and soul.

So sit quietly.  Adore Me.  Show your true adoration by asking Me trustingly for all the Graces I have waiting to pour over you.

PS.  Do not dare to beat yourself up for the times you have not asked Me for the Graces contained in each Communion you have received. 

Be ever so grateful, grateful to overflowing that you now know that you can still make use of these past Graces right now!

I am waiting to pour out an abundance of Graces all over the world – Just Ask.

REVIEW -- #141 from May 29, 2013

 #141 May 29, 2013, 10am, at home.

I do not grow impatient with My Beloved Ones.  Then you see, if I do, I do not Love unconditionally.

To Love unconditionally does not call faith impatience.  It calls faith patience.  

As it says in Corinthians “Love is patient”.  This teaching describes who I am to you.  

Not so much what you should practice, though, more so what I am to you.  

If you do not see who I am, how will you ever be able to imitate Me?  “Be as perfect as the Father is perfect.”

Now we know, because of original sin, that the perfection of the Father cannot be our perfection.  Yet, He generously has given us a goal to strive for.  

He does not leave us abandoned to figure it out on our own.  He has most generously given us guidelines.  

What a generous God!

Yet we think ‘oh I can’t possibly reach God’s perfection’ – yet I can reach the perfection He has planted in my heart if I so choose.  

Not the perfection I have perceived for myself, but His Perfection of me in me. 

We don’t reach our perfection because we already have ‘figured out’ what we think He wants of us to be perfect.

So now we are to discard this false image of what we think perfection should be in us, and ask Him to show us the perfection He has planted in each of us.

It will be quite startling to say the least how much He will change us for the better – if we ask Him to.

Yet so often we are quite satisfied with our own perfection – almost making up words and actions that we think will reflect to others our perfection in our faith.

Be very careful – this is such false faith – this is such a false god you have put in place before Me.  

Throw aside all you do that you think makes you look pious to others.  Put on deep, deep humility and ask Me to show you how to behave before Me – not before others.

You do not serve Me by false piety.  You only mock My Words to be humble and obedient.  

So, I challenge you  --  stop all the ‘signs’ of piety that you use now because you want to look pious, and come and ask Me how to behave piously before Me.

Think of all the actions you do to look pious to others and ask yourself “why do I do these?”  “To whom am I giving honor and glory?”  -- to me?,   to God?

Ask Me to show you what are external pious things you do, and then ask Me if your heart supersedes these outward actions? 

In other words, does this piety come only from the depths of your heart to honor and glorify Me or do they ache to show others how pious you think you are?  

Do you want to look pious before others, or do you want to be pious before Me?

You see, if you are pious before Me you may not receive any honor and glory from others.  

Yet, when you want to appear pious before others, you have tossed Me aside and crave the honor and glory, that is due only for Me, for yourself.

If your outward piety is not proving fruitful, then hastily seek to be truly pious before Me.

Seek not to be pious before Me.  Seek Me to show you how to be truly pious before Me.

And if I ask you to change a word or behaviour or action and you think “No, God does not want me to do that.”  Then who in heavens name are you obeying, do you want to obey?  Certainly not Me.

So each time you go to do something that ‘looks pious’, jump back into My Heart and let yourself ‘be pious’ only before Me.

You waste precious moments trying to look pious to others while you could be spending those precious moments ‘being pious’ only before Me.  

i.e. I do not need your outer actions to show Me piety.  I want a heart endeavoring to be humble before Me so no one else but Me sees your piety.

Excessive show of piety tells Me that you want the attention on you.  

It shows Me that you feel you need to keep reminding Me how pious you are.  

Remember I see into your heart.  I know your real intentions.

Let Me give you an example:  When you come into church to take your seat in a pew you genuflect.  And that shows Me you honor My special Presence before you.

Then you may have to take up collection or read, or serve, thus leaving your pew and returning to it.   Why would you need to genuflect again?

It shows Me that perhaps you weren’t secure enough in your first greeting and want to be sure I see it this time.

 OR

It indicates you feel this is ‘piety’ on your part that others will see and praise you for.

That is so far from the truth.

For instance, when you visit someone you may first shake hands or hug each other – correct?  That is a normal thing to do.  

Then if you leave the room and come back in, do you greet them again, just in case you think they didn’t get the greeting the first time? 

No.  and even if you get up and walk around the room maybe admiring photos, paintings, etc., when you return to your seat do you ‘greet’ those you are visiting again?  No.

So, the next time you plan to make a pious gesture to Me again, jump back into your heart and make a most sincere prayer to Me with no outward sign.

Do not look to see what others are doing/not doing – ask Me if this is the kind of expression of piety that is most obedient and humble to you.

Ask Me to make you so humble that no one sees your piety but Me.  

We often want the world to see us, yet the only One who can reward you for your obedience and deep humility is Me.

Whom do you wish to impress?  Whom do you want to get all your honor and glory? 

I beg you be o so careful of the devil who wants you to satisfy you by shows of piety.  

He will tell you how great you look, how honorable you look, how holy you look.  He knows the things you do to look pious keep you very far from being pious before Me.  

He wants you to waste your time in looking good, instead of being good in My Presence alone.

You know I think he calls this pride and he wants you to be so occupied with you and how you ‘look’ to others, that your heart will not seek out My Heart to just ‘be’ with Me.

Let us ask ourselves “How does God see me?”  “How does He want me to see me through His Eyes?”

Am I willing to go to my room and do all for Him without others knowing?

Put all your “I am pious” signs before Me to be consumed in the Fire of My Love.

Now place your heart in Mine and let Me refine ‘your piety’ into the piety that I want you to express only to Me.  

Come sit with Me and I will teach you a most deeper piety that will move your heart to rejoicing.

Come sit with Me.
