3:50pm, St. Theresa’s, before the Blessed Sacrament
(humble surrender = deeper holiness)
O My most holy People. You are holy you know because you were made in
My Image and Likeness and I AM HOLY.
Do not shy away from endeavoring to become holier.
Not that I haven’t made you in the perfection of holy, but
rather I beg you to endeavor to remain holy and sometimes we step aside from
that goal and then have to renew our efforts to become holier.
Do not run away but return to Me with a humble contrite
heart.
That is how we renew our holiness --- become holier, --- after
we have fallen out of holiness.
Become holier does not mean that you can better My Grace
with which I have made you. No. NO.
Rather it means becoming holier especially after we have
fallen away.
I want My People to remain in holiness --- to dig into the
Holy of Holies and sup from the Graces abiding there.
You are not meant to be holier than another person.
You are meant to seek a higher holiness seeking and using
the Graces I want to pour over you today.
It is not a competition to become holier; it is a humble
striving to seek and use My Holy Graces.
It has nothing to do with trying to surpass Me or
others.
It has all to do with seeking to find the happiness and end
goal for your soul.
Stay close to Me and you will remain in holiness, yet never
tire of seeking to be closer and closer to Me and you can only do this by
surrendering more and more of you to Me.
We only become holier when we are willing, joyfully willing,
to surrender more and more of ourselves to God.
I know you know that you have not surrendered all of you to
Me. And I wait patiently.
I wait with a smile and with encouragement. I want you to know that I want to help you
with this effort of surrendering.
When you begin to link the fact that surrendering will bring
you to deeper holiness, then perhaps you will be able to surrender more to
Me.
If you are seeking to be holy, then be most willing to
humbly surrender more and more to Me.
