The Silence of the Heart

Dec 2, 2024

Monday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏

“There is a time for speech and a time for silence. I tell you few of My people know the time for silence. When you are able to reflect in silence, you will see there are more speakable words in your heart than those found on your lips.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

I remember where I was on the day that Gianna received this message in Laverna Italy. It was my 34th birthday, and our granddaughter Justice was being born,(yes, I was in the room, and we share a birthday and that is more than special)so I will choose this time to “speak” in a sense. She was the first brown kid born in our family, and I had little idea at the time that I would have a large hand in raising, mentoring, and helping raise her, her siblings, her offspring and many of their African friends over the next three decades as the “patriarch” of sorts of a very “mixed race” family. Legally and “extended.” Oddly and ironically, Justice’s most recent baby is about as “white as a sheet,” and we “be like”“dang, where’d this kid come from?” (Very dominant father genes actually)Race relations in America have been evolving around us merely in the fact that different races have been mingling and producing offspring in more different colors than Sherwin Williams over the past few decades, yet, we as a society, largely for political reasons, continue to do what I call “dichotomizing.” Using the words “black and white” to describe people who are neither. Keeping an “us vs them” dialogue happening as my family, and many families around me, evolve into one big happy “us.” Society tries to give our kids a “race box” to check so they know how to “treat them, but there is no box, because the false dichotomy is being destroyed by evolution as we evolve into lighter and darker shades of brown every day, depending upon where we started. At least from where I sit. This dichotomy becomes more blurred every day as society grows and evolves. This line also becomes more blurred as immigrants from all over the world come into our “country,” and more shades of brown enter into our social and biological spectrum, and we start families with people who are different from ourselves.
Jesus calls us to respect each other’s differences, which people of ALL races need to work on. To think that “racism” only manifests through people who are considered “white,”(even though they aren’t)towards people who are considered “black”(even though they aren’t)is pretty much a contemporary version of racism, no matter how one tries to present it. We have to be careful about this, as what we in America call “white supremacy” becomes relegated to the dust bin where it belongs, and our leadership in all facets of America and the globe, business, religious, and political, turn more brown every day. “Race” has no choice but to disappear in the next few generations, or the next half century or so, yet, most of what’s keeping it alive is politics and ego. Identifying people and things collectively as a means to social and political relevance and significance.
Jesus doesn’t call us to be “significant.” He calls us to be humble, and to raise others before ourselves. If someone is downtrodden due to “racism,” it is incumbent upon us to help them rise from the ashes of poverty and despair, but to always be truthful in our dialogue, and not to over generalize, because there is little truth to be found in over generalization. I take Ivy League African kids to rural “Appalachia” every year where they help folks who happen to be “white” to live better lives and be loved in new ways through their service. It isn’t as “black and white” as we like to make it.
When we emerge from silence, and choose to speak, we need to bring Jesus close, and to remember that ALL are precious in His Sight, whether red, yellow, “black,” or ‘white.” That we are all called as one body in Him, who descends from a “Jewish” background,” one which has also suffered much discrimination collectively in global society over the centuries and decades. (Not a political statement, just a complex truth)
We are called to be one Body in Christ, and to celebrate our differences, not to exploit them. To bring love to all people, no matter their “race” or “social status.” Only through true unity without socially manifested encumbrances, can we truly remain all in, and totally His.❤️🙏

THE SILENCE OF THE HEART
My little one, in today’s world people do not take the time to reflect on God’s goodness in silence. They are busy seeking enticements of the world, and speech is often what becomes their companion over silence. Yet when My people are in need, they briefly come to Me and are quick to ask for graces on behalf of their needs without taking the time for contemplation and prayer in gratitude. My people speak too much and do not listen with their hearts. How I desire to fill My people with fond joy in their hearts through silence. Those who desire silence and prayer many times struggle because of the many people who violate their silence with disrespect and lack of compassion. I desire My people to take the time to reflect in silence on My love and My will for them. If My people are too busy to take time to reflect on My love, how can they discern what My will is for them? It is through prayer and contemplation that peace resides in the heart. In peace can you discern the Way of God. Prayer and contemplation allow you to be at peace with yourself, no matter what distractions or confusion surround you.
My people take little time for silent prayer and many do not take any time for silent meditation. Then when confusion and chaos strike, they are not able to find peace within. Consequently, only few of My people are able to know the truth and follow My Way.
Most importantly, I want to speak to My people and fill them with all they desire: the freedom, the peace, the joy, wisdom and happiness of the heart; but they deny themselves and Me by not adhering to My request to pray within the silence of the heart.
Confusion and chaos will only continue if no one believes in My Word to reflect in prayer on My will and My love. How can you live My Word if you do not reflect on it? How can you understand the meaning of My Word and discern it as it pertains to your life and My will for you if you do not respect My gift of silence? There is a time for speech and a time for silence. I tell you few of My people know the time for silence. When you are able to reflect in silence, you will see there are more speakable words in your heart than those found on your lips.
It is good, little one, that you have come back to My place where I spoke first to you about silence. Now you see there are many people who seek in pilgrimage their needs from Me and who fail to see that one of the greatest gifts of My merciful love is silence of the heart in order that their needs would be fulfilled.
I have so many graces to give; and yet, there are so few who truly desire them. They ask, ask and ask, but do not allow Me to give because My gift to them they choose not to receive. It is not in the format they expect and so they block the truth and light in answer to their request. Pray for their needs. I love My people. I desire to unite with them more intimately; and yet, I wait for them. I will wait and continue to wait for them because of My great love for them. Simplicity of life and My will for you reside in the silence of your heart! Seek me there and you shall find Me and your joy.
Peace to you, little one. My blessings and love. AD DEUM.

Little Children of Hope

Sunday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏

“Today in this age there is much chaos and confusion because of great division. The intellect makes a conscious effort to excel in power and control. I am looking for those who desire to be little children and for those who will guard My Word through faithfulness, love in action, and complete satisfaction in surrendering to Divine Providence.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

As this Advent season, the prequel to Christmas begins, what “gifts” are we going to bring to those around us that might be pleasing to Jesus?
As we practice “little ways” of love, hopefully we start by keeping God at the forefront of our family lives by beginning at Home. Being kind to those we claim to love the most, forgiving their flaws and quirks, and doing nice things for them, and finding pleasure in it. Things like doing the dishes and taking out trash, but with a sense of love as opposed to “duty,” and casting any “internal objections” aside as we allow God to fill our souls and to pour His Love upon our closest loved ones from the core of our being. And keeping our family prayer life alive and abundant, keeping Him at the forefront of our consciousness as we live together and serve each other.
Once we find our true place there, we have an “anchor,” security in our own being that will hopefully give us the confidence to send that level of love out beyond our homes, and into our workplaces, our churches, and every place where we might have the opportunity to engage other people. Maybe getting involved with a service project, and encouraging our kids to do the same. They might not engage now, but there will be a time in their lives once social and spiritual maturity start kicking in, that they will remember what they learned from us, and act accordingly.
The more we keep Jesus at the forefront of our consciousness, the happier we will be, whether we’re at home, in jail, impoverished, or in a tropical paradise, our level of happiness will remain stable because we are one in Him. Surrounded in eternal love, regardless of what our temporal surroundings look like.
I pray that we immerse ourselves in Him this season. Read about, and learn from the scriptures, the apostles and the saints who went before us, not only dedicating, but often sacrificing their lives to Him as they worked, and still work to keep His Kingdom bountiful in love.
Not so much “buying gifts,” but being a gift, for the greatest gift we can give is love. Our love for each other will return to us and become love for ourselves, so that the love we send out “next time” will be even greater than the love we sent before. This is how we grow His Kingdom as we anticipate His Coming and His Return, that all might come to that place of love that He has prepared for us. That we might bring the world together as one, casting out all divisions, as we keep our hearts and souls all in, and totally His.❤️🙏

LITTLE CHILDREN OF HOPE
My dear little one, I speak to many of My people awaiting a response of love. I desire for all people to unite and to love and to live in harmony, yet the forces of evil cause division when there is no response in faithfulness to My Word. My love alone sustains all people. Without My love nothing could exist. My love speaks to all people, but not all have chosen the Way. So I speak to many of My people in different forms, and I await a response in simplicity and faithfulness. Today in this age there is much chaos and confusion because of great division. The intellect makes a conscious effort to excel in power and control. I am looking for those who desire to be little children and for those who will guard My Word through faithfulness, love in action, and complete satisfaction in surrendering to Divine Providence. Very few of My people have chosen this route, yet My Mother, your Mother of the living, chose this simple little Way and Her power exceeds that of all creatures. Her consciousness did not gain Her power through Her intellect, but Her unconscious union with the Spirit in love and faithfulness gained Her the title of Queenship over mankind. Her feminine simplicity, Her “fiat,” and Her fidelity to God were the bonds of unity and bridge of life for all of mankind. In Her resided the purity of all life, and through Her “fiat” came forth salvation for all mankind.
Why do I seek those who are little children in simpleness and yet of little influence? Because they listen and are totally dependent on Me. In their dependency stems a solid mature spiritual character, one different and unique from each other and all people. They march valiantly in the wisdom of silence of the heart, a silence where love dwells and peace resides. The voice of their prayers slays the dragons of evil and those who desire violence and destruction. I love My little ones and invite all to follow the way of littleness as that of My Mother, so secure in Her fidelity to follow God at all costs without consolation or promises. I desire children of hope, those who will continue to fight the battle through prayer and little ways regardless of the current events of the world. They have hope always, for My little ones have Me. I do not desire My children to pray and then give up their prayers because they do not see the results they desire. The battle is in the heavens against evil, and much prayer, fidelity to faithfulness, and simplicity in surrendering to God are the powerful tools of victory. Unity is what is needed.
Peace is needed. All people need to join in peace and unity. But evil forces chase away those who are weak in prayer. The time of victory is for God alone to choose. When many of My little children see continual division and brokenness, they begin to doubt whether their prayers are to any avail. Consequently, they stop praying because of their lack of faith and trust in My Word. I do not desire those to surrender prayer because they have not seen the results they desire. Never surrender prayer! Surrender your heart in love for My Word to Me and pray, pray, pray! The battle will be won through prayer and unity. Be persistent hope-filled children. Have perseverance and hope in your God of love. Do not settle for less.
Do not allow your consciousness to convince you to stop praying.
Master all feelings through endurance and perseverance. Pray, pray, pray! Remain faithful and hope in My love! Peace, little one. My peace I give to My people. AD DEUM.

Love as I Love, Die as I Died

Nov 29, 2024

Friday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏

“It is good to plan, but do not be consumed with making sure that your plans are fulfilled. Allow God’s will to unfold in the midst of your plans. Maintain peace of heart and serenity. You cannot make something happen just as you cannot make someone love you. I cannot make My people love Me.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

God has ways of teaching us that most of us don’t even consciously think about until well after it’s already happened. 20 some years ago, just post 9-11, my goal was to publicly wipe “religion” off the face of the earth. Y’all see how that went, right? The figurative “death and resurrection” that took place between then and now was a manifestation of God having changed pretty much every plan I ever had for my life, and in retrospect, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
To live in God’s Kingdom we do have to first die unto this world and die unto ourselves, and remember that decay has to happen before growth can happen. Jesus had to die so that He might resurrect, and that we might also follow His perfection, and die unto ourselves that we might follow Him on the straight and narrow path to redemption.
Every single one of us is called. Not only to follow Him, but to lead by example, and not by force, that others might follow and join us at the table where even death cannot harm us. If not for the ultimate sacrifices of Jesus and the early apostles and evangelists who died for the Kingdom, we would all be lost sheep at the hands of evil influencers, (Satan)with no place to turn except for the death of our own souls.
This is where the turning point lies, and where we must choose between life and death, and whether we’re going to be open to His Plan, or our plan, and none of us have the slightest idea of how to “plan” much of anything from a Kingdom perspective if we don’t allow Him to first fill us and guide us that we might remain humble and holy as we walk with each other through this treacherous plane.
Satan’s minions are everywhere, even in our churches from top to bottom, and only by remaining pure in Him, can we expose those elements and allow God to lead us on His path of perfection.
Only through immersion in prayer in humility can God show us The Way, The Truth, and The Life, and how we can best serve Him with love from the deepest parts of our souls and psyches.
God does have a plan for our lives, and “resistance is futile,” for the death that comes from resistance is permanent, and our souls will suffer greatly if we do choose to resist.
Please seek Him out, and let Him all in, for only then can we be totally His, and only by allowing Him to “take the wheel,” will we survive the fires of refinement that will lead us to His Glory.
We are loved in ways that most of us can’t even imagine. Our job is to reflect that love upon every soul we touch that all might live through, with, and in Him. He will lead us to the Father, but only through sacrifice and deep love. It is the only way.❤️🙏

LOVE AS I LOVED, DIE AS I DIED
My dear little one, you cannot worry about what will happen tomorrow. You need not focus on anything but what you are to do today or you will experience anxiety and uncertainty. It is good to plan, but do not be consumed with making sure that your plans are fulfilled. Allow God’s will to unfold in the midst of your plans.
Maintain peace of heart and serenity. You cannot make something happen just as you cannot make someone love you. I cannot make My people love Me. It is their free will that I have given to them as a gift. No matter how much you try to impress people or prove to them you have changed from your old ways, and no matter how kind you are to them, giving gifts of love, you cannot gain their acceptance or trust. They have free will to choose what and who they desire to love and accept. That is why I have told you to focus on Me your Lord, nothing more, nothing else, nothing less. You will gain peace and serenity of heart in My love. You will always have My acceptance and My love. You need not prove to Me that you have changed, for I have given you the grace to change. You need not try to impress Me. My love is unconditional, and it is I who bear gifts of love for My people.
People can be very cruel. When they choose their way above God’s Way, when they decide not to walk the path of love I have walked before them, they lose sight of truth and reality. They become blinded by the consuming desire to fulfill their quest, and in the process they become very cruel in nature and behavior. What they define as freedom and the reign of freedom is not the stepping stone to unconditional love, but that of control and manipulation.
That is why I continually invite all people to return to God, to love unconditionally and to be merciful. Many of My little ones become targets of pain from the belittling comments and cruel words of others. They try to give of themselves unconditionally in love and in the process are lashed out at in return for their efforts. These My little ones many times feel abandoned by God, but it is not so. As my little ones turn to Me and refocus once again on My love, they are strengthened and become the pillars of My unconditional love.
Step by step they become victorious in the eyes of God and merit the crown of glory.
Why must it be so? Because, little one, all who love as I love must die as I died. It was My people who made their fate by their verdict they passed on Me. They made their own fate by their judgment on Me. Now all who live as I live and desire to share in My glory must die as I died, in love and in humility. Remember, I was victorious in death, and in love of My people I died in order that all might live and share in My reign. I would do it again, for My love for My people surpasses all love. Those who desire to follow My love must walk the walk, cary their oross and be crucified in My crucifiable love and mercy. Peace this day, little one, as the mysticism of My love unfolds in all its wonders. AD DEUM.

The New Dawn of My Light

Nov 28, 2024

Thursday Truth in Deep Love 🤗❤️🙏

“They know they will meet failure and vices of their flesh along their journey. But they also know that love is the sword which slays these failings and that gentleness of self will assuredly make them victorious in My love. And when the new dawn of My light approaches, it will find them waiting with patience, confidence and hope, having persevered through the night.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)

I spend much more time than one would imagine cursing mean people in my head. Instead of relaxing, going into contemplative prayer and reaching the place of atonement where God wants me, I keep reflecting on the audacity of people whom I’ll likely never see again, and rehearse what I’ll say if I ever do see them again. To “put them in a place” that isn’t mine to put them into. I try to fight narcissism with more narcissism, rather than humbling myself, letting it go, and letting God handle what is His to handle. Every bit of this is interior. As I typed this last sentence “interior” first came out as “inferior.” That hit home as well, as it is in fact, an inferior aspect of my psyche that needs lots of work.
Sometimes I feel like this “righteous anger” is motivational, and kind of provides a “spark” that keeps my soul “alive,” but more than not, it’s just a disturbance of my peace.
What is God telling me here?
So many of us are influenced by our devil possessed ugly media, and I don’t think there’s a bit of this that isn’t fomented by that. I pray for humility over and over, but the ego, and the deadly sin of pride keep kicking in, and even though I appear calm on the outside, the devil constantly pokes, and reels me back in. It’s all just childish “playground emotion,” that I have a hard time rising above.
Hopefully writing all of this will help me process. To remind myself to breathe in the good, and to release the “garbage” to Him. As a good friend just told me; to say “stop,” and to dive as deeply into a prayer, maybe a Hail Mary, and to allow She who was conceived without sin to comfort and protect me, and to guide me to Jesus, that I might stay in His Light. That I might learn to not be so easily “poked,” as that poking is just a tactic of Satan to turn good into bad, and that I have an obligation to God, to myself, and to all of those around me to to “retreat” to that place where love and peace reside. That my actions are reflected in my prayer, and that humility crushes pride and ego.
Not to “turn the tables,” but to practice the virtue of self control that I not allow myself to be pulled into the “chaos.”
To realize that my mission is to remind myself and all of us that we all belong to Christ, and should treat each other with love and kindness despite our differences in opinions. That my job is to “spread the seeds, and to remember that “only God can make them grow.” To place myself at the foot of the cross in humility and gratitude. To allow Him to rejuvenate my spirit and make me whole again. That I might find His Peace in me. That peace that passes all understanding, and that I might remain all in, and totally His. To let it go to Him, and to just love. That’s all I’m really here for.❤️🙏

THE NEW DAWN OF MY LIGHT
My dear little one, the dawn brings on a new day, a new day filled with My love, goodness, tenderness and gentleness. The dawn is the break from the darkness of the night when the light rises and shines through to brighten the pathway of love and the horizon of freshness, hopes and wonders. There is no more fear of the dark and uncertainty of the future. The dawn brings hope for the tomorrow of My love. The dawn enlightens and unfolds My love today.
It is good, and those who persevere await the moment in hope and confidence. They know the night will end and that with time the dawn will emerge and the light will brighten the sky.
I speak these words so that My people will know that perseverance in hope will bring on the new day of goodness. Good will always prevail and love will always be victorious for all who pray, hope and work for tomorrow. Peace in your duties and faithfulness to your responsibilities will ensure victory in My love. There will always be challenges but none too difficult nor My yoke too heavy to carry. The harvest is many but the laborers are few. Those who are close to the reign of God and the kingdom of Goodness work diligently interiorly and exteriorly challenging themselves to grow in My love and mercy, and to be Me. They know the darkness of the night will pass and they hope in perseverance for the dawn of My light. Change takes time. Gentleness is what is needed to meet the challenges of the new dawn. They know it is most necessary to meet all challenges with love and to move ahead valiantly and with courage. They know they will meet failure and vices of their flesh along their journey. But they also know that love is the sword which slays these failings and that gentleness of self will assuredly make them victorious in My love. And when the new dawn of My light approaches, it will find them waiting with patience, confidence and hope, having persevered through the night. I will take these My few laborers and give to them My crown of glory; and they shall help all those who are lost on the way, those who started on the path but became distracted from persevering and stranded themselves in the cloud of confusion. They will be found by my laborers and brought back once again to the pathway of love and will be encouraged to continue on in hope, meeting with courage all obstacles and chal-lenges. With love, gentleness and perseverance they also will rise above them. Look to the dawn, which is sure to rise, the dawn of hope for all who persevere and endure. Peace, little one. Peace to all My people. AD DEUM.
