“Enlighten your mind and spirit through enthusiasm but be careful that your motives are not self-pleasing through vanity instead of pleasing for the heavens. Do not be overburdened by work you undertake for My sake, nor allow it to trouble you. Remember My promise to you, and this will be your
consolation.”(From Gianna below)
It’s funny and maybe even ironic that the media and the world had me growing up believing that “evangelists” were people on television with slick suits, big churches, and fancy cars who were typically soliciting donations to “further the Kingdom.” It kind of made it hard to discern who was working out of love for God, and who was working to line their own pockets. I suppose in the end, only God knows their motives, and it will be God who determines their fate, and hopefully their actions will result in calls to conversion, and the enhancement of God’s Kingdom.
I’ve come to realize that most true evangelists come in the form of people getting down and dirty, improving the lives of others, and soliciting help in the form of love when necessary. They may ask for donations, but you can generally rest assured that few or no “bucks” stop in their wallets. In fact, my observation is that more bucks leave their wallets for evangelical causes than go into to their wallets. They exist in a humble state, and are never afraid to ask for help, and if they are afraid, they ask anyway. They’re the ones who lay it all down for Him, and when you help them, your conscience feels full, but light. The impact they have on society might be something we consider small, but we know it’s real by simple observation. It’s hard to question the motives of someone who is creating love in brokenness, taking little or no credit, and giving it all to Him. Leaving everything, maybe even a high paying job for the sake of His Kingdom. It may not “matter” to the world in terms of glory, but it will definitely bring glory to God and His Kingdom, and that’s where peace and salvation lie. It’s in the little acts of love that God makes big things happen, and in that exists “the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever, amen. In perfect love.❤️🙏

Motives
“My dear one, My words today to My people are few. I
want them to be aware that the enthusiasm behind their
motives is great, but to caution them that they check them-
selves that their motives are not for themselves but, instead,
for God’s glory.
Enlighten your mind and spirit through enthusiasm, but be
careful that your motives are not self-pleasing through vanity
instead of pleasing for the heavens. Do not be overburdened
by work you undertake for My sake, nor allow it to trouble
you. Remember My promise to you, and this will be your
consolation.
Sorrows and burdens will come and they will pass. Place
your trust in Me. You will never be stricken very long. All
trials and sufferings end. They will pass by more quickly than
you may realize. Most importantly, continue to cross check
yourself that your actions and way of life are ones which af-
firm My love. Many start out enthused to conquer. Few realize
That the way to conquer is to be conquered first by God
The pleasures of the self must be conquered and, due to
your human natures, can only be conquered in the midst of
pain! Then all you conquer is for the glory of God. Be care
ful, especially as you make changes, that your changes are for
your well-being in My Kingdom, and not for your well being
in the world. It will make a difference, at the least moment
of expectation, when God searches your soul for purity from
grandiosity!
I love My people, make no mistake, and My love is not
in vain. What I do for you, I do for the heavens. What is ac-
complished in the heavens is accomplished for you! Love and
peace, My little one. Ad Deum.”

“You must be beautiful inside in order to be beautiful outside!
Only He, who has created you, knows what you need most to
make you beautiful through purification. It is like heating metals
in fire to make them into perfected instruments. I use people and
various other sources, all related in one form or another to you,
to purify you. Your response dictates your progress.”(From Gianna below)
We can’t serve God in a state of deep sin as I was before my first “purification,” which I was very blessed to have been warned about just before it happened. I’ve gone through other phases of purification through the spirit, but when our sin runs deep, He sometimes has to put us through “the fire” to get us to a state of grace where we can understand and reflect His will. I know that many people truly become “purified” in jail even. They gain humility, experience, wisdom, and usually as a story of conversion that will also serve them and Him once they do come into the light. Some purification happens through deep pain, like the death of a child or loved one. I see many every day who use that, the deepest pain possible, to bring God into peoples souls, and through that pain comes the greatest wisdom and love through which He can work through us. We are all eternal beings, and we all pass through this realm in a very short time. Our loved ones are only lost for a short time before we become reunited in heavenly bliss, but it is how we use that short time that will determine how that will go in the eternal sense. We are all called to service in love. We can work with God, or we can hinder our own progress and that of others by avoidance. I pray that we all allow ourselves to be purified through our pain and stress, whether it be great or small, that we might stay in His will, and serve Him as He has, and will prepare us to do as we walk each other through this life. In perfect love. ❤️🙏

Novices
“My child, troubles will come and will pass, and they
will move in and out of your path like a tide that rolls
in at full moon; but do not despair. If you knew the glory to
come, you would not complain of your burden now. Even if
you look at the saints in the past, they have all now gained
the glory of heaven, but suffered much trouble and difficulties
in their mortal lives.
Take all your shortcomings, for one difficulty offered with
love and faithful commitment to Me is the greatest grain of
the harvest. You know I have kept a watchful eye over you
and notice your NOVICE actions of despair. I keep watch over
all My dear ones in commitment of My love for you. Now, at
moments when you feel trapped and confused, you lose sight
of calling on Me. You submerge yourself in self pity.
Take pride in your God! Be silent. Be patient and endure
all burden, for it is delegated through the hand of God. Noth-
ing will happen that God’s hand is not also there.
You must be beautiful inside in order to be beautiful outside!
Only He, who has created you, knows what you need most to
make you beautiful through purification. It is like heating metals
in fire to make them into perfected instruments. I use people and
various other sources, all related in one form or another to you,
to purify you. Your response dictates your progress.
All my people are novices in this life, no matter what age,
no matter what experience or wisdom is given. You will never
achieve the experience of knowledge of the mystical Kingdom
until you dwell in My house, face to face in ecstatic union
with the Trinity. Even your most well known scholars are
novices, for no one knows perfection until total union exists
of the Divinity in each of you.
So once again, I ask you to be patient. Go slowly and trust
in Me. It is at these moments of hardship that your commit-
ment in faith and the direction of your love is most needed to
be tempered and focused on Me. You are important vessels of
love in this world. Take courage and do not despair, for what
awaits you in heaven will overcome all moments of hardship
now. Believe in Me!”

“I grace My people with feelings, and My grace is a precious gem. You must put aside anything that would stand in the way of My grace. Seek the quiet for My love to dwell. a place for yourself in which you keep focused on your feelings and direct them in a loving, healing, powerful way.”(From Gianna below)
I’ll tell you that when I first began dabbling with the idea of “contemplative prayer,” it was more like watching the clock. “When will this be done so I can go out and play,” or whatever worldly thing I was doing at the time. I wish I could say that it was a gradual change to where I am now, which is kind of the opposite, but it wasn’t. There was almost an instant in time when the spirit called me to adoration and contemplation, and now I can’t wait to get there, and it’s hard to leave when it becomes time to leave, aside from the fact that much of contemplation, particularly when kneeling, is keeping my limbs from falling asleep under my excess weight. I’ve been contemplating that and cutting back on sugar too. God does need us healthy if we’re going to serve Him through this time. Not that people can’t serve in poor health, but I don’t think that’s the ideal. Especially now, as there is much going on in the world as His Kingdom comes to fruition, and He needs us at our best. Mentally and physically. And He needs our full attention, as we merge what’s happening in the world with His desires and tasks for us, that we might act responsibly and in His will. Once I truly said “yes” to Him, things changed. We talk about the “power of now,” which I do reflect on and see merit in embracing, but I don’t think that comes anywhere close to the power of our “yes.” It’s a place where we realize we have been called to Him. A place where we open ourselves up to Him, and allow Him to work in every aspect of our being to bring His will and His plan into the light. It’s a place where all are welcome and invited, and it’s a place of deep love for all whom we encounter. More than that, it’s a place that’s very real, and facilitates glimpses into His heavenly Kingdom that allow us to go forth and make His Will happen here on earth. To bring His Kingdom to all who desire it. In perfect love. ❤️🙏

Feelings
“My dear one, day by day, as you focus on My love within
you and the love you exhibit in love of Me, you will
embrace peace, and peace will become your way.
Each day I invite My people to connect with their feel-
ings. I invite them to feel their own feelings, and then, to
grasp My love, which is the backbone to any advancement
in their development.
My love is with you, and without emotion in your being!
Therefore, if you look within to meet your feelings, you can
motivate them positively to do good. The core of love is faith.
and faith is not a feeling. It is a commitment. Peace comes into
existence when you are in union and harmony with yourself
in My love.
My people have known one way for so long, it is time for
them to look within and to allow peace to dwell there. Peace
of the world comes from peace within. Peace is harmony and
union with the self, the soul.
I grace My people with feelings, and My grace is a pre-
cious gem. You must put aside anything that would stand in
the way of My grace. Seek the quiet for My love to dwell. a
place for yourself in which you keep focused on your feelings
and direct them in a loving, healing, powerful way. This is
where freedom exists. Confidence in God, through My love,
solidifies the stance of your identity in Him!
If you sin, mourn in sorrow. A humble heart and act of
contrition will bear the hope of forgiveness. You regain the
grace, once lost, and are enveloped in My holy, loving em-
brace. Do not allow demons of guilt, bitterness, self pity to
overpower you. You are My creation, and in you dwells My
love and My peace. All you need do is recognize My love,
My peace and embrace Me through love and union of yourself
in Me. It is not as difficult as you think.
It is self pity to think, ‘I will never experience God’s love.’
Not so! Not so! You have My power, if I dwell in you. Put
aside these falsehoods of your created self conscience, and
live in the true consciousness of your being in Me. There
you will find the abyss of UNION AND THE PEACE OF
LOVE.
Take the time now to change your ways of deception. You
need time to change a way of life. You knew no other! Do not
wait for wonders of heaven and hope you will one day just
wake up!! You are given the grace. I am with you to support
you, to help you face the illusions of interpersonal fears: but I
give you the authority to make the decision to end the confusion
of your troubled hearts, and turn them into hearts of self unity
in My love! Make the choice and commence the walk. My door
is open. Now you must walk through it. Healing is but a step
away.
Peace and love. Ad Deum.”

”Put all useless thoughts to the side. Rest. Be at peace through the rest of this day created by God, and be with Me. You are not alone. I am here with you.”(From Gianna below)
Some days are easier than others. We desire to rest in Him, but the world keeps coming at us from so many directions. And we just have to pray. To pray for His love and guidance through every storm. I pray that all of our storms pass gently as we give ourselves to Him. It’s always a good time to rest in Him as He has every answer we need. We just have to trust. In perfect love.❤️🙏

True Identity
“Here I am, My dear one. once again in your presence in
order to give words of love to My people. As you grow
in My grace of humility day by day, you grow more in self-
love day by day. The essence of your being becomes a reality
of beauty, not lost in the wilderness, but making a statement
of love of God.
The only way to gain true identity of yourself is to lose
it, losing the falsehoods of what you believe constitutes self
identity. Loss of control is gaining control; allowing Me to
have a deep, unified relationship with you; being at peace with
yourself through hardships and aloneness; having confidence
and trust in your God and avoiding all that magnifies your
false image of centeredness.
To be solid in love, you must be solid in your love of
yourself the way I desire you to love. You know not love if
you do not know Me! If you know Me, you would not be
afraid of losing your identity. You would know yourself in
My love. Tomorrow will come; and, if you worry in anxiety,
you then block the relief of My graces. You control whether
you choose to continue listening to the falsehoods your own
inner state presents.
Put all useless thoughts to the side. Rest. Be at peace
through the rest of this day created by God, and be with Me.
You are not alone. I am here with you. You feel alone, but
I am with you at all times when you feel My Presence and,
also, when I hide this grace from you. I am nonetheless with
you. Call on Me. I will strengthen you.
Each day you get closer and closer to the abyss of My trea-
sures, where tears do not exist. So be patient. Accept the state
you are in; acknowledge where you are in Me and be quiet.
Be still and be open ONLY to Me. Listen to your Shepherd’s
song. The rest is a grace, My grace, I give to you.
Soon you, My people, will see that you are very special
and beautiful, individually created in My love and, where your
love is, is where you are! Do not fight change in your inner
self. I am with you, creating a new, real identity for you, the
identity of the true you; the love of God in you where you
will not need to seek outside sources to support your image,
but will be one with Me in your love of self in Me!
Be at peace. This change takes time, a time calculated in
God’s hands. Be careful not to run ahead, or to return to your
old ways. Just be with Me where you are. More graces are
about to descend upon you. You are close to the mountain
tops. Fear would like you to turn away, for where you are
in your journey, fear cannot come. Pay not attention to fear!
Face fear and push right through fears, illusions of struggles
and impossibilities.
I am not illusion! I am real and I am here with you.
There are parts you must walk through yourself, with Me,
instead of me carrying you. This is so that you can share in
My treasures. Come now. Hope is AWAITING! Peace and
love, My people. Ad Deum.”

“In order to grow in My grace, you must remove yourself from being the center of attention and, instead, grasp on to Me, allowing Me to overcome you in Myself.”(From Gianna below)
It’s said that Mother Teresa never looked into mirrors because she didn’t want to know what she looked like. Vanity was not part of her psychological makeup apparently. I’m not one to stand in front of the mirror and primp, but I do concern myself with what other people think more than some of the themes I post every day would indicate. Judgement is all around us, and staying deep within, in the silence, and allowing God to mold us in His light without fear of that judgement can be an uncomfortable task. “Removing ourselves from that center of attention” as Our Lord says below, that we can attain “unity and harmony of oneness” with Him.
I’ve come to realize that finding that quiet time every day with Him does strengthen my resolve to carry His love forth without social encumbrances. It helps me to grow in Him, and to put Him at the forefront so that I need not worry about what others think. We’re all flawed, yet we’re all beautiful in His eyes, and to condemn ourselves is to condemn He who created us in His image. If we truly rest in Him, and put Him before all things, He will be our rock, as He is our salvation from all worldly things. May we remember this as we pray and contemplate, and allow Him to release us from vanity and pride, that we might carry His light forth in perfect unity with Him. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Quiet
“My dear one, always look to find your quiet space where I can
make My abode in you! In order to grow in My grace,
you must remove yourself from being the center of attention
and, instead, grasp on to Me, allowing Me to overcome you
in Myself.
I want My people to dwell in the abyss of My love. Do
not hold on to any attachment of the world, but hold on to Me
and overcome this vain self-love. Look towards unity and the
ultimate union and harmony of oneness with God.
The world is nothing without Me. You are nothing without
Me, but everything with Me. Learn to seek intimate, quiet
time with My all encompassing love. Spend time alone and
allow the reality of My existence to dominate your aloneness,
instead of your self-love. Be free of worry and remain clean
of conscience. I have careful watch over you. I am not far off
in the distance. I want to make My abode totally in you.
Please, My people, in order for Me to grace you abundantly,
you must remove your desires of self-centered love, and re-
place your self-love with God-centered love in self!
Do not be amused with the thrills of the world at one mo-
ment, and then turn to God for graces. Empy yourself, so that
I can fill you completely!
I want all of you, and not only in times of your delight!
Quiet down. Make a place for Me to be alone with you. Do
not feel it is necessary to be kept active at every moment to
do that which makes you think you are in union with Me.
Be in union with Me by reserving quiet, private time where l
can make My abode of love in you. This is where you grow
in humility and in love. Peace.”

“Seek, always, humility. You must be made a new, whole person. You need to be molded, formed, smoldered, melted, tested and tried many times. So take your time! The time will be My time! It is wise to go against your desires of self interest.”(From Gianna below)
Allowing the essence of God to penetrate our entire being is never an easy thing. The world puts so many things upon us that He is ready, willing, and able to carry us through, yet instead of allowing Him to “take the wheel,” we half heartedly go through our prayer routine like a gesture. We seek to “get it over with,” rather than immersing ourselves in Him for a period of time, and allowing Him to immerse Himself in us. To set aside time for Him and only Him, every day. To not only make it a part of our day, but to make it our favorite part of the day. To contemplate, and to allow Him deep into our souls where He can instruct, and bring us into His will that we might carry His love forth to all those we encounter. To allow Him to allow us to be miracles for others that they will want to share and be that miracle too. To experience our entire lives in His will, and to give Him the glory, forever. To live in His Kingdom on Earth, so that all might love through Him. I pray that we all take time in this brand new week, to allow Him in totally and fully, that we might not only experience Him, but to share the experience as we walk each other through this precious life. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Testing
“My dear one, there are many times My people come
before Me thinking of many things during their prayer.
They allow their minds to drift and become distant from
the union of their total body. My people need to put aside
their thoughts and struggles, and tend to Me by placing their
thoughts and all of their mind in the abyss of My love, as an
ocean breeze, allowing Me to refresh them.
You are the outcome of your thoughts! Your thoughts are
the place in which you put your desires and the emphasis of
your motives. You are where your thoughts are! It is wise to go
against the waves of lack of discipline and the uncontrollable
thoughts racing through your mind, and focus all your attention
on Me. Naturally, this can be bothersome to you, but persevere
and do not lose hope. Continue to work at the union of silence
of the mind, so that the heart can speak to your mind, instead
of your mind speaking to your heart. Much is lost in this way,
and the distance traveled is far when the journey from the mind
to the heart is accompanied by uncontrollable thoughts.
Seek, always, humility. You must be made a new, whole
person. You need to be molded, formed, smoldered, melted,
tested and tried many times. So take your time! The time
will be My time! It is wise to go against your desires of self
interest. If you truly walk the path of freedom in order to be
crowned gloriously, you would prefer the things that follow
after My ways and desires, not yours.
Sometimes, it is necessary for you to be obedient to
others, following and assisting in things that are uncomfort-
able to you. Remember, I am in everything. I work through
everything and everyone. If your desires and thoughts are
with My desires, then humbly you will patiently endure the
purification and remolding of your soul to perfection and
ecstatic union with Me.
When you reach the many hills of beauty and green pastures
along the way, do not run ahead, but heed to humble your will
even further in offering unto Me. For those ascensions are
predecessors to further testing, molding and purifying until
the essence of the purity of the gem is magnified within the
Being of God the Father, the Son and the Spirit! Until My Will
is completely accomplished in you, you will continue to suffer
the things of yourself. The inner peace you gain is a grace from
Me, and all the richness of your virtues is that which I have
given. to you, not that which you had, from the beginning,
obtained through your own efforts toward self interest.
See that you give to Me fully, entrusting to Me your souls.
The graces you will receive will not be short lived, but live
for all eternity. Therefore, proceed with courage and do not
be afraid. I am here with you. Ad Deum.”
