REVIEW -- #317 from Oct. 29, 2014

 #317  Wed. Oct. 29/14,  9:45am,  St. Theresa’s, before Blessed Sacrament

Do not let a moment pass when My Words do not speak to your soul.

Sounds like a commandment.  But no, it is My Aching urging that you come to realize how important each moment of your life is to Me.

I am in each moment of your day.  Will you claim that Good News to your heart?   Or will you think it foolish of Me to keep repeating how often I am with you.

But you may not have heard these Loving Words of Mine in your heart this day or ever really.

Some may not think I mean them.  But that is your head thinking not your heart yearning.

See how far you can see.  Sometimes not far for a building or mountain can obstruct your view.  

Even when you stand in the middle of the prairies you cannot see ALL.  Even if you had eyes in the back of your head.  

You still could not see beyond the curving surface of the earth to the other side of the world.  

Yet I can see ALL.

So why would you not rely on the One who can see ALL?

Do not limit yourself to your vision of the World.  Step out of this confinement into My View of ALL.

Do not let your eyes lead you, but rather put your soul in charge of leading you.

With your eyes you see the world as cluttered or clean.  

With your soul you see the world as a contented or discontented person.

You can close your eyes and see nothing and still be either content or discontent.  

So, when you look out on the world and are upset with what you see happening, check your soul.

Why are you discontent when you see a messy kitchen?

Do you see it as physical drudgery or do you see it with your soul as a time to spend in prayer with Me?

Your eyes tell your head “oh, this is more work!”

But I ask you to let your soul tell you “This is more time for me to spend loving the Lord.”

Do you see the difference this makes in your body?

Do you see the difference this makes in your soul?

Of course there is a difference.  Thank Me that I have pointed out to you another healthy way for your body and soul to be in ‘good union’ with each other.

I want you healthy and whole.  So, all of these Words of Mine are intended to bring you to a better place of wholeness and completeness.

Don’t we all ache for peace?  

Yet I am so willing to show you how you can reach and maintain peace more often.

So, start by practicing a good soul response when you see a dirty kitchen.  

You have to start somewhere and this will not only help your prayer life but keep your kitchen clean.

Rather than offering up the task of cleaning the kitchen to Me, thank Me, thank Me, thank Me that you have more time to spend in prayer with Me.

It is a whole new attitude in our relationship, not you offering the task, but rather you thanking Me that this task brings you closer to Me in prayer time.

Go in peace, keeping your kitchen clean through thanksgiving.
