Spiritual Maturity

Sunday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏

”As you dissolve into Love, your ego fades. You’re not thinking about loving, you’re just being love, radiating like the sun.”-Ram Dass

“Remember, I can advance you, if I so desire and in a short time, what might take someone else a lifetime! It is what I desire because what I desire gives glory to God. Never raise your spirit to boast of your self-achievement in your spiritual journey. Always remain lowly. For remember, when I invite My guests to My wedding feast, I may invite someone better than you to sit at the front table, and you may be asked to sit at the back! Always see yourself as lowly in a healthy way and when I desire you to be first at the banquet, you shall be asked!”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

Ram Dass, who is quoted in the meme below never identified as a Christian, in fact he was a Harvard guy who experimented with psychedelic drugs with Timothy Leary, yet, so many of His quotes are very much aligned with our walk with Christ, that I’m often inclined to use them in spite of the perceived “philosophical differences” he carried with him in his life on earth. The only reason I’m even saying this, is that I’ll often come up with a great quote, and get chastised by someone who will point out that many of the philosophical differences of the source might not align with “Biblical truth,” or whatever, and therefore the quote, although perfectly valid and true, and often quite wonderful, shouldn’t be used. I might quote a Zen Buddhist, but it doesn’t make me a Zen Buddhist, nor should it indicate that I’m somehow out of alignment with my own faith. I’ve quoted Muslims as well, but that in no way lessens the impact or importance of Jesus in our lives. I was berated a little while back for quoting a perceived “lukewarm Christian,” yet, yes, lukewarm Christians can have great ideas too.
Spiritual maturity isn’t always about who’s right and who’s wrong, but about what is right and what is wrong. We’re all children of God, and we’re all capable of rendering great ideas with great love, which is what Jesus calls us to do, even though the “philosophical vehicle” everyone is traveling in may not necessarily be of Him.
We call people to Jesus by inclusion and love, not by bickering over doctrine. When doctrine is wrong, we have a responsibility to call it out, but everyone has good ideas, and just because they might have some bad ones up their sleeve, doesn’t mean we should toss their good ones out.
Ego= “edging God out.” I got that quote from a friend who is very aligned with the mission of Jesus Christ,” and it quickly reflects much of what is said in the quote below. The better we become at “suspending our egos,” the more “spiritually mature” we will become. Only by suspending our egos can we allow Him to penetrate the core of our beings and our souls in a way that “sends us forth” from a place that is real. To become “little” as St Therese would say, in every way that we can, for His Glory. To stand at the back of the line, and to allow others to be “first,” that their desire to seek Him be enhanced, and that they might remain all in, and totally His.❤️🙏

SPIRITUAL MATURITY
OCTOBER 25, 1990
My dear child, how I wish for My people to realize that they are powerless when they desire to control. They are only powerful in Me. When they give to Me their control and allow Me to discipline them in spiritual maturity, they receive My joy and peace. My journey for those who truly give to Me all of themselves results in their victory. My journey is not victory over others, but is victory over yourself, victory in receiving eternal bliss.
My dear child, do not My people realize that everything they have comes from Me? Even their thoughts are those which I allow; even their desires are those which I allow. If My people would realize that they are powerless and come to Me with open hearts, I could grant to them abundant graces. Those who come to Me admitting their imperfections and weaknesses, even though I know what they are, and without seeking self consolation, receive My virtues abundantly. Because even free will comes from Me, I cannot give the graces of My virtues unless My people allow it.
How pure, and what joy it brings to Me when My beloved people come and open their hearts to Me! Speak to Me and share your joys with Me. Be open and accept where you are in your journey, for where you are is where I desire you to be. Do not attempt to advance without Me advancing you or you will only end up taking many steps backwards. All must go at My pace, if they truly desire to follow Me.
Pray for detachment from your worldly desires and pray that My desires will always be yours. Be faithful servants by following and remaining true to the Word of My Father. As My people begin their journey, and even those well on My road must remember that I give everything to them. They cannot achieve any spiritual level unless I desire them to achieve it! Be grateful where you are and always focus on the Word.
Remember, I can advance you, if I so desire and in a short time, what might take someone else a lifetime! It is what I desire because what I desire gives glory to God. Never raise your spirit to boast of your self-achievement in your spiritual journey. Always remain lowly. For remember, when I invite My guests to My wedding feast, I may invite someone better than you to sit at the front table, and you may be asked to sit at the back! Always see yourself as lowly in a healthy way and when I desire you to be first at the banquet, you shall be asked! Never take it upon yourself to think you will be awarded such a great gain. Only those who give totally, sincerely, openly, devoutly and honestly of themselves by allowing Me to guide them will achieve such a bliss.
Tell My people to realize how powerless they are in controlling their spiritual destiny! Come to Me in your weakness, openly and admittingly, and I shall grant healing and strength and joy. Bless you, My people, and know that My firmness is not out of hate, but of love for you. Peace to all who deserve peace.

Judgement

Saturday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏

“My Father has given His Kingdom to His people, all His people. Therefore judgment (their judgment) will be a result of how they utilize the power of grace. This means the standards of judgment you hold bound on others will be the same standards held on you because you are not allowing My Father to rule with His peace.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye, and ignore the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother ‘let me take the speck out of your eye ? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye”- Matthew 7:1

Gossip and “judgement” are everywhere. The workplace, church, school, sewing circles, Bible study groups and locker rooms. Men are just as guilty of it as women, and there’s no “demographic” out there that’s free from it, whether they be the “purveyors,” recipients, or victims of said gossip.
I think the biggest requirement for conversation to be labeled as “gossip” is that there is collective “judgment” taking place in said conversations, and a “lynch mob” mentality at work causing damage to another soul or souls. I’ve been more than guilty of it in the workplace, and “high school,” yet hopefully there comes a time in our adulthood where we mature out of that mode, keep ourselves in check, and learn to stop it in its tracks before misinformation and “judgment” get carried beyond those rendering it.
And this goes for us as individuals as well, for we tend to judge without having witnessed, and should never allow these kinds of thoughts to travel beyond ourselves unless we’re truly seeking counsel as to how to handle a “situation,” and in this we must be careful as well, as there is a fine line between “seeking counsel” and rendering gossip, as the former often devolves into the latter.
There is often a correlation between our “need to render judgment” and our own lack of self esteem, as we find “security” in putting ourselves above others, which I think most of us know in our hearts, souls, and minds is never a good thing to do.
I think that we, as responsible stewards of God’s love, should check ourselves and our friends and family when we start to segue into a mode of gossip or judgment, because I can be lured into it just as quickly as anyone, but hopefully catch what’s happening in time to reverse it, and keep any potential damage at bay.
It’s good that we “see souls through God’s eyes,” but leave all judgment to Him, as He knows all truth, and we do not. We carry limitations that He doesn’t, and should remain humble in recognition of our limitations.
Only in this way, will we be able to shed God’s Grace on others as He has done for us, that we might remain all in, and totally His.❤️🙏

JUDGMENT
SEPTEMBER 30, 1990
My dear child, it is today I wish for My people to know the truth about judgment. Harmful judgment does not come from My Father. Harmful judgment comes from My people.
Those who wrongfully judge will be judged, not by God’s standards, but by their own!
Judgment rests upon My people. My Father is a loving and merciful God. He is not a spiteful or revengeful one. He wishes only good and pure happiness. What you hold bound on earth is bound in Heaven. That is why I caution you to beware of your current judging standards.
If you can forgive or love yourself, then My Father can forgive and love you because you allow Him! If you love yourself in purity, then your own judgment against yourself can only be a judgment in purity! That judgment results in one of favor for you, not against you. Seek Him, for He will guide you in this purity.
Forgive others. What you see on the surface may not be the truth behind their incentives. Know what you see is not what My Father sees. If you do not judge others for what they do to you, then God’s goodness can only dwell in your heart with forgiveness and mercy. There cannot be harmful judgment against you because it cannot exist.
Tell My people it is because of My great love for them that I am able to share the truth of the final judgment. If God is good now, can He harm you? If God is merciful, how can He deny forgiveness?
My Father has given His Kingdom to His people, all His people. Therefore judgment (their judgment) will be a result of how they utilize the power of grace. This means the standards of judgment you hold bound on others will be the same standards held on you because you are not allowing My Father to rule with His peace.
The more you love, the more you forgive; the more you accept and allow things to simply be, the more you live in His peace; and the result of your judgment will be a glorious one! This is utilizing the tools of My Father’s grace wisely.
My people do not realize this truth of their power in My Father. Know it is He Who judges justly and know that those who trust in Him need not fear. For these, His people, are faithful to His promise and glorify Him for His kindness and fidelity to His promise.

Only Love and Mercy

Friday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏

“I am not a spiteful God, nor am I a revengeful one. I am all loving and giving. I wish to give the fruits of Paradise, but the fruits I wish to give are not the ones My people desire. They live for momentary pleasure. I have the fruits of lasting grace, of lasting pleasure.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

We don’t have to dive especially deep to see how much emphasis society puts on “momentary pleasure.” “One night stands,” alcohol, drugs, the slave and sex trades, and the diversions from truth that our media and political parties bestow upon us. All of the things that appeal to our ego and diminish our consciences, add up to a culture that would have made any thinking, caring person gasp merely 50 years ago.
We’ve so gotten away from God, and I have to confess to “you my brothers and sisters,” that I made every effort at many times in my life to enable that mass “exodus from God’s Will,” as a willing participant in the worst sin and debauchery society had and has to offer. I believed that “secular humanism” carried all of life’s answers, and that somehow the fear, hate, and power mongers of this world had the “answers” that would save us. I also found the notion of “God” cruel and restrictive, and somehow thought “religion” was going to destroy society, as I watched 9-11’ and the perceived “cruelty” Abrahamic religions seemed to put onto society.
Yet, somewhere in the ether, in the depths of each and every soul, God waits for us. All of us are “prodigal sons” to some degree, as we allow this world to carry us into “dark nights of the soul,” from which only God can rescue us. And if we’re truly honest with ourselves, we will in fact place ourselves at the “foot of The Cross” when adversity comes upon us, and humbly submit to Him, for only He has the power to love us without “human conditions” being placed upon us. Submission to His Will as opposed to society’s will can be daunting, as Satan’s minions are ready and waiting to catch us off guard, and trap us into defying Him on some level that might require extra “redemption” on our parts as individuals.
Yet, we are loved so deeply, and it’s incumbent upon us to remember that so that we can let others know how deeply loved they are. Through immersion in prayer, and opening ourselves up to Him for love, truth, and guidance, he will in fact hold us in His mantle and give us the tools of “sight” that we need to bring His love to the table. The table where all are welcome, as we are all sinners in need of redemption whether we’re willing to admit it or not. We’re called to love, no more no less. I pray that we bring Him close on this morning that when we leave our houses we will be equipped for love. God’s love, and God gives us permission to share that love, for God’s love is in the “public domain” for each of us to use freely without licensure or obstacles, that we might keep His Kingdom alive on earth, that every soul can live a life that’s all in, and totally His. “Light of the world, shine on me, love is the answer.” Always and forever.❤️🙏

ONLY LOVE AND MERCY
SEPTEMBER 17, 1990
My dear one, I am a loving God Who comes to speak of My love for My people. How I purely love them! My people are good people. They were created good. Good exists in them.
When they are bad, the good still exists in them because I created them. It was their free will with which they selected the path of evil, which prevented them from growing in My goodness.
I am not a spiteful God, nor am I a revengeful one. I am all loving and giving. I wish to give the fruits of Paradise, but the fruits I wish to give are not the ones My people desire. They live for momentary pleasure. I have the fruits of lasting grace, of lasting pleasure.
Today, I simply wish for all My people to know that I love them, whether they love Me or not. I love them, and will never change or leave them. I am a merciful and loving God.
I can only love and have mercy!
It saddens Me that My people do not desire the freshness of My love, but I will always continue to leave My door open, and the light of My Kingdom on for them, in hopes of their love. Pray for them, child, and express My love. Bring them home, for they are hungry, cold and malnourished. How I desire their friendship. Friends are loving, and never expect anything from one another. I cannot purchase their love or their friendship. I can only give to them all that I am! I give them My heart and My everlasting love, a blissful Paradise.
Thank you, My dear one, for writing My words for My very special people, people who live in My heart. How I love them. They are My new tomorrow. Bless you, and bless all My people. My Peace.

Worry

Thursday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏

“My people say they trust in Me and are not afraid of Me, but I tell you, they do not trust completely and are afraid! If they were not afraid of Me, they would believe in My words of truth and would trust in My comfort by not worrying. When they worry, they focus on the source of their problem, utilizing their energy. Their focus is not on comfort from Me.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

Every single one of us is leaving this earth soon. Many we love will leave here before we do, many will leave after. This is an inevitable and undeniable part of every single life in existence, yet, we spend so much of our waking consciousness in a state of distrust, or worry, that somehow disaster will befall us unless we do in fact, “worry.” Worry when we should be praying. Worry when we should be on our knees, not only relying on God for comfort, but asking Him how we can serve Him in a way that will not only improve our state in this earthly life, but how we can improve the state of others. We don’t trust Him to get it right, and we tend to drop back and feel sorry for ourselves when “bad” things happen, and we often spend years in the “denial” stage of grief, and often leave this earth in that state ourselves, which is not what God wants from us.
There seems to be a theme this week about using our gifts, acts of redemptive suffering, and living simply, which, if we follow, should all put us on a path that is free from “worry,” for if we are walking in His footsteps, He will carry us Home through the service we share with others. Turning that “worry” into love, so that we not only give comfort to our own souls, we give comfort to every soul we touch, regardless of their status or time left on earth.
We are in a tumultuous time, and as the powers of Satan escalate on Earth, it’s incumbent upon us to be the Light. To maintain confidence in Him so that we might instill that confidence in others, that they too might spend the rest of their “natural” lives, free from worry. While we will never be completely free from worry, God can most definitely provide us with the means to keep it at bay if we but remain in Him. Allowing Him to live completely through us, with us, and in us, that every soul we touch gets a chance to also live in Him, that they might remain all in, and totally His through the remainder of our “lifetime.” We won’t get through this without His love. And His love depends on us.❤️🙏

WORRY
SEPTEMBER 1, 1990
My dear child, how I desire for My people not to worry about their illness, financial status, or any other disturbance they encounter. I desire all to trust in and love the Holy Trinity completely, and in its entirety. My people say they trust in Me and are not afraid of Me, but I tell you, they do not trust completely and are afraid! If they were not afraid of Me, they would believe in My words of truth and would trust in My comfort by not worrying. When they worry, they focus on the source of their problem, utilizing their energy. Their focus is not on My comfort. They struggle because they are afraid of the outcome to their problem. This means they are afraid of Me because they do not trust that I will rectify their problem! They are afraid of losing their control, and they wish for Me to care for their situations in a way that they feel would relieve them of their turmoil and anxiety. If they were not afraid of Me, they would accept whatever the circumstances by surrendering totally into My trust and comfort.
If My people truly loved My Father with all of their hearts, they would be filled with joy and peace, no matter what the perturbing situation. When you lose focus of His goodness and His power as God, you slide into the anxiety caused by worry. No matter what the difficulty, even if it be illness, all focus and peaceful surrender should be given to My Father in songs of praise and hymns and psalms of glory! This is by far the greatest gift you can give to yourself.
Love your God above all with all of your heart. My Father is all giving, loving, merciful and compassionate. He is all good and knowing. He is your romantic God, and I am One with Him! All who love Him dwell in His house and are one with Him in the Holy Trinity.
My lesson today is to tell My people the importance of rejoicing in the Father, quietly and openly. For if it were not for My Father, there would be no hope for the salvation of mankind. It was He Who sent Me to suffer for the redemption of the world and to restore hope. It was He Who allowed His only Son to be crucified so that mankind could have eternal life. It is He, the same God Who loves you, His people, with all His Heart. For He has given to you all that is good.
He has given you Me.
I bless you, My dear one, today, and all My people who rest in My Most Sacred Heart. Peace to you this day. Continue to walk in the perfection of My holiness, My dear people, as I continue to teach you the way in the holiness of My Father.

Gifts

Wednesday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏

“Tell My people to be aware of their gifts and to use them. All must use their different and separate gifts in order for the vine to bloom.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

I think many of us go to church to “get saved,” yet I think the point of going is more to prepare us to be “sent forth,” that we might facilitate the salvation of others. For us Catholics who attend “Mass,” which derives from “missa,” or “mission,” and means “sending forth,” we should hopefully train our minds to think like that, and to realize that we’re there to attain the “power of the Holy Spirit” to get “charged up,” that we might be prepared to go out and “heal the sick,” and to let everyone in the “world” know how loved they are in the deepest spiritual sense when we do encounter them. It should be the same with Protestant churches, but I’m not sure that message really gets emphasized through all denominations. Some more than others I’m sure.
Nevertheless, Jesus doesn’t call us for the salvation of the “self,” but to die to the “self” that we might show others deep love through sacrifice.
If we think in terms of the original 12 disciples, and how Christianity has grown through the acts of the original 12 to what it is today, it’s pretty evident that the “ripple effect” their mission had on the world was, and still is, beyond powerful. While the bureaucracies that run the churches are far from perfect, the spirit of the people contained therein has carried that mission a long way over the past two millennia, and it’s up to each and every one of us to hopefully see that mission through without blemish.
One of my favorite “recessional hymns” at church comes from Psalm 117, “Go out go out, to all the world, share the good good news.” While we have plenty of great recessional hymns, that one gives “instruction” like no other, that we might leave that place filled with the spirit, to be sent forth, that every soul we touch has the opportunity to live a life that’s all in, and totally His. I pray that we make it so. For His Glory.❤️🙏

GIFTS
AUGUST 4, 1990
My dear one, I grant My people the gift of life and I watch over them. What do My people do with the gifts I have given them? Many take for granted that their present life is a gift from Me, until their days are numbered! When they realize that their earthly life is near end, it frightens them because they do not know what it means to have eternal life, or if they will achieve it.
I tell My people to use and nourish their present life to its fullest potential in the glory of God, and they will have eternal life. However, there are many who are not only ungrateful, but wonder why others have it far better than they!
Do not My people realize that they ridicule and hurt My Father when they do not love themselves and use the gifts given to them by Him? Every gift, which is given, belongs to My Father to be used in His Glory, for He shares His gifts with His people. By right, if the gifts belong to Him, then He can take the gifts away when He deems fit because it never belonged to them to begin with. My people do not see that their life alone is a gift, for many abuse the gift of their life and do not appreciate it. This is evident from their lack of love for themselves.
I am the God Who gives life, not takes away. I wish to see all blossom into the ripe fruit on My vine, not to fall from the vine. Tell My people to be aware of their gifts and to use them. All must use their different and separate gifts in order for the vine to bloom. Remember the parable of the vine I told you. Do not allow the roots of evil to suffocate the vine, or the leaves will not blossom!
Be grateful for your life, My dear people. Live a joyful, productive and peaceful life, so that your gifts will blossom, mature, and grant you eternal life. Bless you all, and peace to you this day in which My mercy flows.
