#670 Wed. May 10/17, 9:50am, St. Theresa’s, before the Blessed Sacrament
(a delight)
Come, Come, Come. Come before Me.
Delight to come before Me.
It is not a duty or obligation but a delight in your heart to come before Me.
Every time you come before Me, do you tell Me that you delight to come before Me?
Or are you too centered on what you are going to bring to Me this day?
But I beg you first say “Lord, I delight to come before You.”
That starts you off more in My Company than in yours. Ouch eh?
So, even if I go to adore the Lord, what attitude do I present to Him --- one of me delighted to be in His Presence, or one of me lugging all my concerns and dumping them at His Feet?
Do you see the difference? I sure hope you do.
In one case, you come to Me in Joy, in the Spirit of Joy, in the other, you come to Me in you, in the you who at this moment feels beat down by the World and things going on around you.
Which attitude do you think will be more open to the Lord’s Abundant Graces?
So, come to Me and when you come to Me set your soul in the proper direction, proper space by which it is more than open to receive My Abundant Graces.
“Lord, I am delighted to be with You!”
Look at how we get ourselves comfy and cozy to watch a tv show or read a book or relax in the sun.
So, get your soul comfy and cozy by letting it proclaim to Me that it is truly delighted to be with Me, to be in My Holy Delightful Presence.
