#316 Tues. Oct. 28/14, 9:50am, St. Theresa’s, before the Blessed Sacrament
Let Me come to be with My People.
Do not stop Me from sharing My Words just because you wish to do something else.
My Words are Mighty and Fine. Cut like a knife, not to do harm but to inflict Everlasting Life.
I want to reach your very core – your heart and soul.
I want My People not to have to wander around wondering ‘what if?’ or ‘how should I?’ or ‘what if I don’t know what to do right?’
Hasten to listen to the Words I have written down. Let them seep into your delicate soul.
Open your heart to be fed by the only Words that give Life, strong and full.
Do not label yourself as a sinner. Dare to call yourself My Beloved.
I want your healing more than you do. I know what you need healed more than you do.
Take less than 5 seconds a day to say “Jesus Loves me.”
You will hardly miss the time it takes to say these 3 gentle all-encompassing Words.
Let them sustain you. Eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Before you take a bite of food or a sip of juice/water say “Jesus Loves me.”
You have not cut into your mealtime at all, so you will not miss out on the food needed to sustain your body.
When you go to take your medication say “Jesus Loves me.”
Before you start the car, say “Jesus Loves me.”
Do you see the many, many times you have in your life to proclaim My Good News to your hungry heart.
How can your heart run throughout the day without nourishment, medicine, gas it needs to operate efficiently. Efficiently = Lovingly.
If your heart is not running efficiently (Lovingly), then how is it operating?
How does it sustain itself, no less sustain the all of you?
If your heart does not operate on the fuel ‘Jesus Loves me’, what other ingredient that is far less substantial are you using?
Do you compliment yourself on a job well done?
Do you wish to be better at this or that than you think you are?
Do you pride yourself on holy remarks?
Do you seek approval from others?
How does this fuel sustain you?
It all runs out and then you have to keep going to other sources for something to sustain your heart.
Why not go to the One Source that is never ending, limitless, on-going, secure and reliable?
“Jesus Loves me.” Say it again “Jesus Loves me.”
You have found the Wholesome Provider and you do not have to look any further. What Great Consolation!
My Love is Complete and constantly able to sustain.
It has not a shelf time. Like it does not say a ‘best before date’. It is constant, full, entire and will not wear out.
Go to the grocery store and check out the ‘best before date’ on several items.
This usually means that you will not get the fullness of the produce after that date. The ingredients may deteriorate; it may not taste good; it may not fulfill all your body’s needs.
You might say I have a best before date --- best before going to bed, awakening, before a meal, before watching tv, before going to church, before speaking, before waiting to see your doctor.
Before each moment in your day!
My Goodness is everlasting. My Love refreshes, renews, rekindles, silences, sustains, opens, closes, unwinds, satisfies.
And you do not have to pay a penny for it, or even leave the house to pick it up and bring it home.
It is free-flowing, moving all around you, ready to be snatched up and absorbed by a hungry heart.
Ask Me to create in you not only a new heart each day, but a new heart that aches to absorb more and more of My Love, each day.
When you say, “Jesus Loves me” you are not only affirming Jesus to your heart, but you are thanking Jesus from your heart without even having to say “thank you Jesus for Loving me.”
Your thank you is already imbedded in the Words “Jesus Loves me.”
Try to say this short sentence without feeling grateful.
At first, if it is new to you, perhaps you will not feel gratitude, yet I tell you, your dear precious heart is rejoicing to have heard these Words that further sustain its purpose for being Created.
You can’t say it, “Jesus Loves me”, without each cell of your body rejoicing with this Good News.
So, for your health sake do not fail to take this medicine several times a day, with or without food, with or without the Blessed Sacrament near-by, with or without a companion, with or without a good reason.
Whisper it to your cat or dog! They will not think you crazy.
Say it in the woods to the colorful trees -- their color reflects God’s Love for them.
Say it to the waves at the seashore who gain their very life from God’s Creative Power.
I challenge you to find places where you have never said this to yourself before. Maybe on the ferry ride to Dartmouth, maybe climbing the stairs to the town clock, maybe picking up sea shells, maybe when you see the first snowflake.
Release My Eternal Power over you more often than often and see what your heart truly desires.
Go in Peace. Whisper “Jesus Loves me”, shout “Jesus Loves me.”
Do not forget “Jesus Loves me.”
