Seek Only Me

“If I am at your center, then there is no need to hear words of people’s praise
only to fill a momentary pleasure. This is selfishness, and should be avoided! It is detrimental to anyone’s growth, hurts and sufferings included.”(From Gianna below)

In our culture, service is typically followed by some kind of accolades or recognition. Service awards for doing good. I remember one Church affiliated organization I headed up where they wanted us to lie on our reports so we could meet a quota at the state level without having even done the deed. Bureaucracy gone awry. That was about someone higher up getting recognized for something they not only didnt do, it was something they weren’t even supposed to do. They were only supposed to encourage someone else to do it. Service organizations can be great things if they’re engaged for the right reasons. When the award comes in getting to see the results of the service itself. In the happiness that reflects from true charity when we help to make the broken whole again. I just think that if we’re in it for a plaque on the wall, we’re probably in it for the wrong reason. I think even the most delicate reflection of Jesus’ words should give us strong indication of this. “But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.”(Matt 6:3) It’s an odd metaphor, but I’m pretty sure a service plaque on my wall is telling everyone who visits us what we did, when God says it’s just between us and Him. Accolades and humility are contradictory, and sometimes we put way too much effort in the accolades as opposed to service to God and humankind, which should be the award in itself. Service always seems to be followed by an “Awards Banquet.” Dinner’s nice, but if you want to award me, let me out of sitting through the long ceremony. Accolades are between us and God. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Seek Only Me
“My dear one, look to console instead of being consoled.
Do not look to hear words of yourself and your actions that would please you! Look to be at the assistance of others. I am your Lord Who, at this time, desires that My chosen forget themselves and tend to Me! Quiet the mind and acknowledge how unproductive it is to seek consolation from
others. You need to seek only Me. It delays your journey
when you desire a human to support or evaluate your spiritual
performance, when only the eyes of God can see your interior
motives!
I wish for My people to reflect upon this. If I am at your
center, then there is no need to hear words of people’s praise
only to fill a momentary pleasure. This is selfishness, and
should be avoided! It is detrimental to anyone’s growth, hurts
and sufferings included. Seek to serve others. Listen, pray and
achieve all that is good through serving others and listening to
their painful cries. This will turn into your consolation.
When I say to forget yourselves, I am speaking of loving
Me by denying your humanness, in order that I may live in
union with your willingness. There are many of My people
who live in pain, and are in need of love, and the embrace
of comfort. Console these, My people. You are gathered to
be in community to love and console one another in times of
need and care. But do not SEEK consolation from others, as
it relates to praises, yet graciously accept it when it comes.
Simply avoid seeking after it, but console others. It is not as
important to be understood as to understand, because if you
live in Me and I in you, then you are understood by God.
Remember, through Him all things came to be, and apart
from Him nothing came to be. It is only He you need to love.
I understand because I AM THE WORD WHO BECAME
FLESH.
Let your spirit exalt in your Savior and put to rest your hu-
man behaviors, desiring praises of humans. I love My people.
ALL WHO LIVE THE WORD ARE CHOSEN! Remember,
you did not choose Me: it is I Who chose you. Those who
know the Word know they did not choose, but were chosen.
Peace, My dear one. Ad Deum.”

Willingness

“I thank all My people who are committed in love. This is where the living vessels become the Living Word.”(From Gianna below)

When I look out upon the demographics of church going Christians, I see three different camps. Two of these camps preach and adhere to wing politics, left or right, and put their views out in the table for everyone to see. They attend church, but somehow miss about half of what Jesus taught us because they’re wrapped up in narrative that ignores the whole truth in favor of an agenda. The sad thing about these two camps, is that about half of their agenda on either side has little to do with Jesus. Just the parts of Jesus’ Word that favor their particular agenda.
I have no clue as to the political leanings of the third camp, because they’re immersed in Jesus and somehow manage to live in His word despite pressure from the political fringes. They refuse to be influenced by either of the destructive narratives put into play by the money behind the “parties.” These are the people who are willing to actually sit down and have the tough conversations that can bring healthy compromise to our disturbed world. These are the people we should be paying attention to. The ones bringing love to the table in spite of the pressure driven by the devil possessed media and those who are immersed in it. Our Lord tells us below- “Be a scholar through simpleness and desire to know the Word. You cannot know the Word if you do not hear the Word. Do not be willing only in spirit. Be disciplined to be strong in flesh by taking the steps to live it!”
We do have to find the discipline to live through Him and in Him, and not through the divisive narratives put before us. To take our cause to the foot of the cross, and ask Him how we can temper our thoughts and our words to actually influence outcome that reflects His love and His peace. Unity is ours, but until we check our egos at the door, it will only be a dream. I pray that we open ourselves up to that dream. In His perfect light. All love!❤️🙏

Willingness
“My dear one. the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
All who come to Me can be strengthened. I have said
that all you need is the faith of one mustard seed. Behold, those
who can surrender to Me and trust in Me, can be molded and
strengthened. It leads to the spirit being willing and allowing
the weakness to reflect strength because I am strength.
If you try to live in prayer and in truth, love and kindness,
I will assist your endeavors because of your willingness. The
flesh must be disciplined to carry out the fulfillment of the
word. This comes through willingness and desire, but also
taking heed of the word through action.
I am the Word because I AM. If you have a desire to seek
heavenly bliss, then follow this much merited grace. See with
all of your heart that which brings fruits of the vine. The fruits
of the vine will ripen from the vine. I am the Vine. As you
have seen vineyards that bear fruit, only sweet fruit is pro-
duced from the strength of the vine. The way of your world
is one which lacks discipline of the flesh to the call of prayer
and unity, but reflects destruction through violence.
Look to your historians who speak of the past and learn that
it is most necessary to forgive, and important to take heed of
the consequences which could always follow suit once again
through lack of unity, dishonesty and economic, monetary
empires seeking control and power.
I ask My people to take the disciplinary measures to follow
Me by living My Word. This is the fulfillment of the Word
because I am the Word and I fulfilled the law of Him Who sent
Me. Please, please take note of your indigent ways, and pray to
the living God. Liken to Me by following My Word and living
it. Study the Word. Be a scholar through simpleness and desire
to know the Word. You cannot know the Word if you do not
hear the Word. Do not be willing only in spirit. Be disciplined
to be strong in flesh by taking the steps to live it!
I love you, My dear one, and I love those who are so much
seeking life because I am Life! The shepherd loves all His
sheep. Look at the true meaning of the parable of the shepherd.
It has always been the same as yesteryears. The Shepherd still
lives! Thank you, My dear one, for the commitment to My
love. I thank all My people who are committed in love. This
is where the living vessels become the Living Word. Peace
to you. Ad Deum.”

A Clean Conscience

“It is not man to commend or seek praises or dispraises of himself. It belongs under the hand of God. Therefore, a clean conscience is one that looks to Me, to the heavens for union, and pays little attention to the ways
of men and is not swayed by his word.”(From Gianna below)

I remember many times when my moral compass allowed me to stray far off the path of what was right and holy, particularly before I allowed God into my life. I was taught the basics of God’s law at an early age, and it all seemed plausible at the time, but as we grow out of early childhood, temptation from social pressure tends to carry a strong influence. For young boys it typically would come as a challenge to break a window or to shoplift, then as puberty hits, those challenges devolved into misogynistic challenges from “the locker room.” I’m sure girls had similar challenges presented to them as well. Later in life we might get tempted to cheat or steal in order to put food on our tables. Today we all exist in a political dichotomy where two sides of a coin both carry agendas that tend to stray far from God’s intent, and our consciences are forced to pick the “lesser of two evils” at the voting booth. Anyone who isn’t experiencing some crisis of conscience in that respect, has most certainly been indoctrinated not only by false promise, but by evil they have been convinced is on the path of righteousness. Even true righteousness, untempered and without concern for big picture cause and effect, can take us down a very bad path. If we fail to lead people to understanding, we have still failed, no matter how righteous we believe we are. God’s law isn’t complicated. Modern politics are very complicated, and if one is truly paying attention, they would have no choice but to realize that complication is by intent. So how do we align our consciences with God’s will in this sad moral climate? Taking sides in a false dichotomy only seems to carry us further from His truth and His love. The good news is that a very high percentage of us do claim to believe in Him. The most popular book on the planet is called “Holy Bible.” It’s a resource that can be accessed anywhere So why do we pour so much of our souls into things that are clearly not of Him? I hope and pray that this message today is a call to truth. A call for all to turn off the things posing as God, and to pour our souls into “the Way, the Truth, and the Life.” A place of cleansing for our souls. A place of clean conscience. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

A Clean Conscience
“My dear one, take down My words now for My people.
A good conscience is one which brings joy in God. It
is your glory when your conscience is clear! It is not in what
is in your words, but what is in your heart. Speech does not
reflect the interior. He, who has a clear conscience, will be
content and in peace with himself. My Father sees what is
within. Man looks upon the actions and speech of men, but it
is I Who weighs the intentions of the heart. It is the interior
of the heart which will ultimately speak the actions in truth,
but what man does not see on the outside does not mean it is
not seen by the eyes of God interiorly. Also, what man sees
through actions exteriorly does not reflect in its totality in-
wardly! Man may not praise you, but this does not mean you
are worse or less holy. Likewise, if you are praised by man,
this does not mean you are holy!
My point today, child, is this: walking with Me interiorly
and refusing comfort from man, without seeking consolation
or affection, is the state of an interior confidence and purity.
To do your best, yet to hold yourself in little account, will
solidify union of a humble state. If you seek after the glory of
this world, you have little love for what is heavenly.
Keep a good conscience. Clean yourself before the temple
and you shall have joy. Remember, the wicked cannot have
joy or peace because there is no joy or peace to the wickedness
of evil. The projects of the evil will only perish. True peace
and joy can only be sustained in Me, and I rest in the humble,
pure and clean hearts. A clean conscience is one who examines
itself continuously to wash, to sift and rinse and clean for a
resting place for its Master. This means that great tranquillity
of the heart will not seek affection of man’s praises or dis-
praises, but will look to God for His face to behold.
Remember, child, that God approves and selects whom
He desires to commend. It is not man to commend or seek
praises or dispraises of himself. It belongs under the hand of
God. Therefore, a clean conscience is one that looks to Me,
to the heavens for union, and pays little attention to the ways
of men and is not swayed by his word. Ad Deum.”

Look Within

“The human needs the love of community and the touch of each other. Man was not created to live alone, but in unity. However, man was created to give glory to God for His honor, and so, praise to the Creator for His blessing was, and continues to be, essential for freedom.”(From Gianna below)

It’s hard to reflect God’s light and to bring peace to others if we can’t find a way to bring peace to our own souls. I spoke yesterday about the fact that churches across the country still seem to outnumber Starbuck’s, yet somehow Jesus seems to be an obscure notion once we travel outside of those church walls. Are we taking God with us when we leave to give to others? Or are we merely passing Him a token so that we can feel good about “our faith” and get on with our worldly lives once we walk out the door? I certainly grew up in a culture that praised God on Sunday and pretty much ignored Him the rest of the week. One thing I have to appreciate about Catholic culture, is that unlike most Protestant venues, there is usually a way to get to church any day of the week, whether for Mass, or just to pray in adoration. We have active religious out there keeping Our Lord open 24/7, and giving us access to avenues of prayer and reflection whenever we need Him, and I’m finding that the longer I live, the more I need Him close 24/7. We also have tools like the Rosary that give a convenient way to reflect on the Gospel at any given time. It keeps it fresh in our memory and in our soul so we can keep Him at the forefront of our lives. Despite its challenges and difficulties, this 2000 year old magisterium and its sacraments and saints definitely provide a level of access to Him that can be daunting to try to imitate outside of the faith. But people do manage to keep Him close without these things as well. Many times closer than those who do have access to these things. Nevertheless, if He isn’t living at the forefront of our hearts and souls 24/7, we’re allowing access to things that are damaging to every element of our psyche and soul, and unfortunately, there’s much of that available for the taking as well. I pray that we use whatever tools are available to keep our hearts and souls living through Him, with Him, and in Him, for now and for eternity. That we might keep His Kingdom at hand on Earth as He has proclaimed. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Look Within
“My dear one, peace must exist in the cornerstone of your
heart, because I am to exist in your heart! Before peace
can escalate out unto others, it must encompass your being
in totality because I must encompass you in totality. This is
the free will given to you through creation of mankind. You
are only to be willing and have faith of a mustard seed, and
I shall consume you in love!
By now, My dear one, you have seen what a mustard seed
looks like, and you know the history of the parables relate in
reality, not only to the people of that age, but also carrying
into today’s generation. You look for a quiet place of peace to
rest your weary head, but you have not looked within.
My people need to look within. There I lie; an inner con-
templation living amongst an active world. If I call My ones
to solitude in hermitage, that grace is for those chosen. But
most of My people are subject to living in an active world
as I walked, and must flee within to find solitude in Me. It
then would not matter where you are. The peace, solitude and
love of contemplation would become the cornerstone of your
soul, because I am the cornerstone of peace in your soul. I
dove into the heart of My being, there to find My Father’s
peace and to dwell in solitude, then to rest My head on My
Mother for loving care. You also need to turn for love, and
care for one another.
The human needs the love of community and the touch
of each other. Man was not created to live alone, but in unity.
However, man was created to give glory to God for His honor,
and so, praise to the Creator for His blessing was, and contin-
ues to be, essential for freedom.
Dive into My Sacred heart for rejuvenation of the soul. Do
not look for rest and peace in outer sources. Look inside, and
those who are willing to receive My love and peace will find
Me! Here lies your protection and intimacy with God. Here
rests total knowledge, the knowledge I grant you through the
heart. Even though you have knowledge through the intellect
of the mind, you have not knowledge unless it is processed
and absorbed in love through the heart!!
My dear one, in My time of human existence amongst My
people I worked hard. I was rugged and exhausted. I never
ceased to teach My Father’s word and to have mercy on those
in need. I was crucified and humiliated amongst a market
place of thieves and wild people, none who cared about the
mercy of God; a common place where no one took heed of
the presence of the Son of the living God.
I could not find peace exteriorly because the world did not
exist in peace exteriorly. I came to save the world so all would
have life and peace, but I dove interiorly into My Father’s
heart for solitude, contemplation and the peace of His love.
I then walked the back roads to freedom by walking the ac-
tive world in the contemplation of solitude and peace within
where My Father dwelled.
I call all My people today to this same magnetic quiet-
ness of solitude, which exists within yourselves interiorly, not
exteriorly. I live within. It is where you will find rest in your
busy world, and the guidance of the teachings of My truth.
Then you can see Me living exteriorly amongst all, but not
before you have seen Me within, because there you will first
see yourself, and therein, Me.
The Son of Man is coming to verify the past truths and
to collect His chosen ones! The time will come when all will
experience the state of their soul. All will have to look within.
It cannot be escaped. There, where the peace of salvation ex-
ists, will freedom and protection lie.
Come, My sweet one, it is time to begin a new day of My
Father’s creation. I am with you always in your soul and by
your side. I place My Angels of protection around you, as I
send them to all My people of God. The interior protection I
will procure. The exterior now will be guided by My archan-
gels. Peace and Ad Deum.”

Self Love

“The trials of the follower, through the cross, become the sweetness and fruitful consummation of the total union. This is when the self is
purified to be found worthy in the eyes of God to love as God
loves and to be merciful as God is Mercy.”(From Gianna below)

As we drive through any city, town, or even many crossroads in America, there are Christian churches everywhere. Churches, all of which exist because Peter said “yes” some two thousand years ago. While these churches exist by some means of monetary sustenance, I have to wonder how they’re sustaining themselves in a spiritual sense. I guess the question I have to ask myself, is that if all of these thousands of churches are managing to sustain themselves financially, why is it that we aren’t hearing a lot more about Jesus out in the streets, towns, or on social media and in the “news?” Why is it that all conversations that spring up happen to deal with the hateful political climate we live in, but we don’t talk about Jesus and what we’re doing through Him, with Him, and in Him? What are we drawing from these churches? Are we going for show, or are we truly drinking from the well, and taking His love forth into society as He has called each and every one of us to do? Maybe I’m missing something, but the math isn’t adding up in my head. It’s good that we go to church to “drink from the well,” but to what end? I’m pretty sure Jesus wants us to be “fishers of men,” to go out and evangelize, to love and support each other as we live in His precious light, bringing His messages of love, hope, and peace throughout our neighborhoods, and throughout the world. To live in, and to share His light at all times, not just for an hour on the weekend. I pray that we reflect on this, and not only go to church, but take what we seek forth and live our lives immersed in His glory, that others may wish to seek that which we seek. To live in His perfect love, and to keep His Kingdom alive on Earth as He has proclaimed. In perfect love always. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Self Love
“My dear child, I, your Lord and Teacher, come here with
you. As I asked Peter to make a final decision to fol-
low Me, I ask you. You are a follower through heart, not
so much in knowledge. This is why I teach you My truth
through heart. I teach you directly. The heart lives My knowl-
edge. My people may find it difficult to comprehend My
words to you as “the” Lord, but I AM; and I choose whom
I desire to reach all My people.
Living samples of My love I mold in My chosen, no matter
how impure. This is the way that My people can be certain
of My teaching. If you were all-knowing, a scholar in theol-
ogy or of My life and teachings, it would be unlikely for My
people to be persuaded. But you are a sinner and impure yet
in the eyes of God. I shall make you My love and mercy for
the world to see that I am a merciful and loving God, pulling
you out from the midst of your wretchedness into the cleanli-
ness of My Kingdom, providing hope for My chosen people
of Israel!
My people learn through patience. Those who put aside
their selfishness can only then obtain self love in Me. You
must have a self love to truly love, but this self love is one
which only focuses on God. This self love denies himself, and
only desires to obtain that which God wills. Those who truly
love their very self will truly love. I teach of what this self
love entails because it is not by the definition of this world’s
standard. The self love I teach is this: To love Me, at all costs,
first above your desires. To be patient and to endure.
Happy and willing are they to rejoice in Me when all is
well, but do not rejoice willingly when the time indicates
uneventful fruits according to their standards. You wish to
follow Me only for the moment when all seems well, but cannot
follow Me with the cross.
True followers and lovers love Me so unconditionally
that they desire only Me and the fruits from the vine mature
and ripen. This is self love and total union, not worrying
over trivial ways of living; bearing with patience and being
balanced and committed to My love, regardless of the times
when things are good or bad.
Remember, I give you peace: peace, not as the world
knows. Those who are burdened, yet completely abandoned
unto Me, live in My peace. It is a peace of union, like hav-
ing a meal together, breaking bread, moving forward and not
dwelling on the past.
This is self love when, especially in the times of distur-
bance, that unity of the lover and the sinner is transfigured
into unity of lover to lover. The cross then becomes the link
between the North and South, East and West. The trials of the
follower, through the cross, become the sweetness and fruit-
ful consummation of the total union. This is when the self is
purified to be found worthy in the eyes of God to love as God
loves and to be merciful as God is Mercy.
Today I ask My people as I asked Peter and I ask you. Do
you love Me? Then feed My lambs. Make your decision, your
final commitment, and your confusion will dissipate. Then all
obstacles will become the gateways. Then your desire will be
only that of Mine, and then can self love commence leading
to the union of the
“consummation of My love”.
I love you, My dear one. That is why I discipline you, to
teach you. If I did not love, I would not break you, nor would I
have been broken in humble resignation to save you. Let us now
pray to the Father. Come, forget the past. Let us move forward
together. Let us “break bread” and love in unity. Ad Deum.”
