CHECK YOURSELF -- #1358 from March 10, 2022

 #1358   THURSDAY, March 10, 2022        10:10am,   before the Blessed Sacrament at St. Thomas Aquinas church

Let your righteous anger be checked.

Let Me tell you what you should be angry about.

I do not want you going off this way and that thinking you are serving your righteous anger.

You see righteous anger is not really anger at all.  It is knowing the Truth and acting on that.  BUT

If you are acting in the Truth, no anger should arise because My Truth is enveloped in Love.

Do you see what I mean?

If I am cross or angry at someone whom I feel is not acting according to God, then neither am I acting according to God.

God Loves.

That is His dominant all over emotion.   He LOVES.

Do I, am I loving when I speak harshly about another.  In most cases I am not loving unconditionally but rather perturbed that ‘they’ are not acting according to God’s Will and Law.

But first check yourself  ---  are you acting according to His Law, His Will?

In many cases I think I am, but really you do know the difference between anger and love.

Most times our human anger is not tinged at all with His Love which He has commanded us to use.

CLOSER -- #1357 from Thursday, March 10/22

 #1357

Thurs. march 10/22    4:10am          at home

Why stop now?

Why do we think we have grown close enough to Me that we do not need to get any closer?

Why would you think that is the fullness of the relationship I want with you?

We only think from our side of the relationship.

We only think we have to put in just this much and we will be saved.

How often do we think or ask ourselves how closer does Jesus want me to get to Him?

Do we not strive to out last breath to get to Him, to get closer and closer to serving His Will?
