“Take time and love the small works you do. You will find much joy and peace when you devote extraordinary love in the ordinary tasks, the small jobs done on a daily basis.”(From Gianna below)
Service is an all encompassing thing. Sometimes we get to stand up in fancy clothes and make a toast at a snazzy banquet, other times we get to take out the trash after the banquet. The older I get, the more I’m inclined to appreciate the latter over the former, but in God’s eyes, every action carries equal merit. The difference is what lies in our heart as we perform either act. Are we displaying love? Or are we complaining because we think we’re above doing certain things? I think that if we stay focused on Jesus as we work, and His acts of love including His passion, any task becomes more rewarding internally. The littlest and simplest of acts can carry great weight in our hearts and souls if performed with love, and especially if we’re walking in His light and embracing His infinite mercy. Following Jesus is never about status, in fact it’s the exact opposite. “The last shall be first, and the first last, for many be called, but few chosen.”(Matt 20:16) Once we divorce ourselves from vanity and desire for status, love becomes a much more natural act. An immersion in the Way, the Truth, and the Life. For every single soul. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Extraordinary Love
“My dear little one, do ordinary things with extraordinay
love! Have fidelity to the little things you do. Be at
peace and believe with all of your heart My love for you, and
that I am by your side. Everything you do, do as if it were for
Me. Be proficient, yet gentle. Touch everything with an EX-
TRAORDINARY LOVE. This is how, in your ordinariness,
you become extraordinary!!
You must believe in Me and trust so fervently in Me as
to be able to see Me in everything and everyone. If you see
Me in everything and everyone, you will be loving, gentle
and kind, if you love Me! For whatever you do to the least
of your brothers, you do to Me.
See yourself as doing good. The image of the world has
surrounded you through advertisements, and has set the tone
of “good life. The only life that is good is the only life that
lives, and this life is in Me.
See Me as your resource of happiness, for I desire you to
be happy. Put aside your anxieties and absorb your energy in
Me, which will influence a concrete response. Don’t Wrestle
with your inadequacies, but embrace Me and allow Me to be
the inspirational challenge to your successful walk!
Take the time to do all your chores and recreation with
extraordinary love. You will never be left alone in this abandoned world of humanity. Come and see the creation of God
through the eyes of God! Take time to contemplate. Take the
loving “touch of love” to all your works and be a follower of
EXTRAORDINARY LOVE. The people of your world are
hastily working, and take care only of the things of meaning
as they perceive; but all is meaningful, if I have created all!
Do not select only that which you desire to love. Take
time and love the small works you do. You will find much joy
and peace when you devote extraordinary love in the ordinary
tasks, the small jobs done on a daily basis. If you can take care
of the small items, then you will be able to love and tend to
bigger projects WITH THE SAME LOVE. This extraordinary
love will become your way, and you will live in union with
Me.
The way you treat one another, no matter what position
or title in life you hold, will be of the same love if you start
to love all the weak and strong with a gentle, extraordinary
care.
I love you all and only desire your love to live in the
union of the Holy Trinity. My words are for you because My
love is for you Because of you, My Father sent Me. He loves
you. I AM FOR YOU. AD DEUM.”

“Love yourself purely, but do not deceive yourself and take pride or boast in yourself. Boast in God and, if you live in Me, you will live humble ways and boast in the pure of heart, and tend to My lowly.(From Gianna below)
It’s said, and I find it to be true, that good leaders cultivate success by building others. I might go even further to say that good leaders cultivate success by allowing others to build others. I think most of us have endured life in workplaces where it was every person for themselves. Where people in roles of leadership look for whom to blame when things go wrong, instead of building them up, trusting that things will go right, and giving grace when mistakes are made. I think a smart leader is one who knows they aren’t going to be a leader forever, and gives more consideration to the legacy they’re leaving behind than to their own credit and glory. Frankly, it’s a lot less work and worry when we build people whom we can trust to get things done and to allow their success, than to attempt to garner “credit” for details of every completed task. I think humility wins when we live in a culture that embraces that philosophy. Any culture that fails to embrace that is something we should strive to either change, or abandon if said change isn’t going to take place on our watch. God has better things for us, when our intent is to satisfy His will, and His will should be all that matters. “Be last and you shall be first.” Success through humility. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Success
“My dear one, today I would like My people to know how I desire intimate happiness to be their way of life! I do not wish My people to seek emptiness or failure. I wish for them to be happy and at peace. Do not lose your sense of self.
Use the talents and gifts given to you. Invest in a success that
is of God, instead of investing in a worship of success through
various means enmeshed in performance!
Lose your life for My sake and you shall find it. I am speak-
ing of your human, mortal life AWAY from Me. Succeed in
Me! Be last and you shall be first. This is an INTENTIONAL
failure, seeking and following My Way. Not having is the way
to receive Eternal Life’s success! Your culture today does not
permit for this kind of behavior. Thus I tell you, what is impos-
sible with humans is possible through Me. For I am the Way,
and I am Happiness, and I am Success! Do not see Me as an
instrument of your happiness, but see Me as the intrinsic way
of life that you seek for your own sake.
You are like fine cloth woven in My love! I ask you not
to immunize yourself against your own failings. See it as a
growth in My love and a growth in your humility to exemplify
My love in purity.
I love you so and hope you will see that My desire for you
is happiness. I am happy when you are happy! I want you to
never lose sight of the truth. I ask My Father’s protection on
you because of your innocence. Do not lose sight of the truth
or allow the evil one to pollute your visual clarity. Stay close
to Me, at all costs, through your faith. Believe in me, and fail-
ure will not exist because you will believe in yourself! Treat
yourself as if you are Me because I am in you!! Be kind to
yourself, and you will be kind to Me. Love yourself tenderly,
even through your failures, and you will love Me. Seek to
serve others and you will be serving Me.
Love yourself purely, but do not deceive yourself and take
pride or boast in yourself. Boast in God and, if you live in
Me, you will live humble ways and boast in the pure of heart
and tend to My lowly. Peace to you.”

“The King will reply “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for the least of these brothers and sisters of Mine, you did for Me.”(Matthew 25:40)
Love means immersion. Using our gifts to pull everyone we can into His precious light. Sometimes we have to “kiss the leper” if we want to be true to His word. Every minute of every day. Not next week when the authorities allow us to emerge from some imposed form of isolation, but here and now. The world is always going to change around us, but Our Lord and His love are with us for public consumption 24/7. He has called us as his agents of distribution, and His supply chain is unlimited. It’s up to us to break the ties that bind us, and to not only allow His love to prosper, but to facilitate it. Our churches may feel that they’re subject to an authority more important than God, and when that happens, we have to defer to God Himself, because in the end, it’s Him and us. Jesus’ cross becomes ours to bear, and as Jesus knew and experienced, “authority” is not always an ally. In fact in my experience, authority tends to be hostile to Jesus, and when our fellow Christians yield to an authority other than Our Lord, it becomes our task to keep His love and light alive in spite of authoritarian barriers. It is up to us as individuals to be His church, and to bring the poorness that exists in ourselves into the light as we lift others. We are His Church, and we are His people. His love can only come through us. In His all knowing perfection. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

The Poor
“My dear one, today I would like to speak of the poorest
of the poor. You live in a society of people who should
live together in love, in union of harmony and in peace, but it
is not that way. My people are poor, poor in spirit: lacking the
charitable gifts; searching for the touch of love, acceptance,
and the thirst for truth, peace, harmony. Even My people who
have the gift of more than others are poorer than the poor.
First, look to your own family. Look in-house to your
brothers and sisters. See how poor they are and charitably give
yourself. Forgive and accept with love. Remember the way of
My Mother! Follow Her way, and She will lead you into the
wounds of My Heart where My mercy exits. Her way, again, is
to listen, to assist, to love and to pray. If you begin, thus, first
with your own sisters and brothers, then you can tend to the
poor existing outside your walls. Then identify yourself with
the poor of My people you serve, because you are as poor!
Share the wonder of My love. Remember what I have
taught you. Your vocation is not your career or profession in
life. Your vocation is that you belong to Me!
My people are losing their human dignity. My people are
poor, and lack the desire to utilize their gift of faith. Serve My
people. Give to them yourself! Give to them a humble heart
of love. Do not try to escape this path of love to the least of
Mine, for you strip your own humanity of dignity, which will
ultimately return, henceforth, back to you. Learn from one
another. Seek the face of God and adore Him in all. My people
live for and by monetary means. I tell you to live for, by and
through Me!! Give wholeheartedly of yourself. My people
today are becoming poorer and poorer.
Please! Please, My dear people, you are all suffering. I
have many lovers for My heavenly kingdom, but few who
are willing to bear My Cross and serve the needs of others,
especially My poorest of poor in the poverty of love. Do not
choose whom you would prefer to love, to serve; but, without
prejudice, serve and love all because, whether they acknowl-
edge My love or not, I exist in and amongst them.
Only those who willingly condemn My love through their
last breath condemn their own soul.
My love is enduring, and saves up until your last breath.
Therefore, My beloved, begin to love at home, and it will be
easier to love the outside. The more you love your family and
all those you meet in your life, the more deep will be your
love for Me. For you cannot say you love Me, and then not
show this same love for My people. ALL ARE OF ME. If you
love Me, you will love them, regardless of sin.
Peace to you, My dear people. I love you. Do you love Me?
Then come to Me by loving Me through loving one another.
and restore your humanity’s dignity. Be no longer poor, be
the richness of life’s breath through love!! Ad Deum.”

“There are many who love Me, yet are accustomed to their way and try to persuade others to live the same. They forget that daily you must die to yourself in order that I may live in you and accomplish far greater works.”(From Gianna below)
Our parish lost an amazing person in body this past week. Her name is Franci. In the last two years and change she lost a husband and son, and knew she had stage 4 cancer, yet she poured every ounce of the rest of her physical being into service in a way that raised the bar for all of us. She not only kept our struggling church ladies auxiliary alive, she called and ran meetings while in hospice. She was getting more done than about ten of the rest of us in any given day. As long as her body could move, she was giving every ounce of what she had to service to Our Lord, and to humanity at large. She was the epitome of what we like to call an “energizer bunny,“ and her example was one for the books. One that truly showed us what it is to “die so that others may live.”
So what about the rest of us? Is there a miracle or tragedy we have to endure before we decide to give ourselves wholly and truly to Him? Or will we reflect on Franci’s example of service to Him and allow Him into our hearts and souls that we might help others to live greater lives through that example? Are we willing to die like that that “others might live?” Or is there money to be made, or soccer practice we need to get our kids to? Where do we want to put our priorities in our limited time on Earth? The ways of the world? Or The Way, the Truth, and the Life? I pray that myself, and the rest of us ponder how Franci not only lived, but died unto herself so that we might live. I pray that we strive to not only live by her amazing example, but carry her work forth that she might live in us. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Infinite Love
“My dear one, My Mother and I are grateful for the work
you do according to Our instructions, but ask now that
you dive deeper into prayer. She will take you into My Most
Sacred Heart. She takes all My people into My Sacred Heart,
where My merciful love flows, who will allow Her and who
are willing to give to Me all of their being.
Today I wish to express to My people My infinite love for
them. I wish for them not to be discouraged with people who
dictate through their authoritative manner and commands.
Be loving anyway! Do not follow their error, but follow the
way of My Mother. Listen more than speaking. Love, assist
others, and pray for them. Do not attempt to debate or be
combative if you disagree, but do not allow yourself to be
influenced. Follow the way of My Mother.
There are many who love Me, yet are accustomed to their
way and try to persuade others to live the same. They forget
that daily you must die to yourself in order that I may live in
you and accomplish far greater works. Be open to the dictates
of command, but do not allow it to influence you negatively.
Focus always on Me and follow the way of My Mother.
No matter who is difficult with you, exchanging harsh
words or instructing you in a selfish, authoritative command,
you can maintain peace and harmony within yourself, if you
dive into a quiet prayer and never lose your focus. Do not
allow people to influence you, even if you admire their ways.
Be yourself by following only Me! This way I can mold you
into a beautiful creation in the eyes of My Father.
I love you, My dear one. I love you, My chosen people! I
love you now and I will always love you. Never lose sight of
the truth. Keep your eyes and heart fixed on Me. Follow the
Way outlined in My gospel words. Remember, you live in a
world of defect through sin and evilness, but I have conquered
the world and died for your salvation.
In order that you follow a peaceful and harmonious life
in Me, you need only to follow My simple instructions. That
is to follow the way of My Mother. Listen to your fellow
companions. Love them and assist them in need and pray for
them. LISTEN, LOVE, ASSIST AND PRAY. And if you see
error, do not be influenced. Yield to My love, My correction
and receive My mercy through My Sacred Heart.
My Mother is the one who can lead you into this depth of
My Merciful Heart. Pray for this grace so that you can dive
into a deeper contemplative life. No matter what errand or
job you do, you can focus in prayer, in love of Me; and live
a life of forgiveness of others and harmony through mercy;
following the steps through the grace bestowed upon you to
listen, love, assist and pray for all. It will relieve your mind
of business, and will inflame your heart with a greater desire
to serve and live in joy and unity.
My blessings and My peace. Allow Me now to rest in your
heart of love for Me. Ad Deum.”

“I find pleasure in those who seek Me with a fervent heart, with persistence and self-giving surrendering.”(From Gianna Below)
How do we truly follow Jesus? I’ve never been particularly turned on by preaching that warns me about the fires of hell, that’s for sure. Yet so many who might claim to follow Him seem to want to focus on that, instilling fear in souls instead of the love that Jesus taught and preached. Jesus went to the cross for us, with an unsurpassed level of humility, and he didn’t do it from a place of material wealth, or from a place of ego that might make us feel that He thought He was better than us. I acknowledge that He is indeed better than us, as He laid it all down. Everything He was as a human He allowed to be taken from Him so that we might live in His perfect light. So why do we as Christians so often set ourselves up in a place of “glory” as opposed to the humility that He lived and preached? “So the last will be first, and the first last.”(Matt 20:16) He showed us the most perfect example of humility with all of His heart and soul. I’m thinking that’s the only way for us as well. May we remember His passion and give all glory to Him as we walk in His light. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

The Humble Heart
“My dear one, its the humble and contrite heart I will not despise. It is the heart that yearns for My goodness I will not turn from. I find pleasure in those who seek Me with a fervent heart, with persistence and self-giving surrendering.
A humble heart is a heart who loves what is heavenly
in the midst of a humanly existence. A humble heart is one
who always wills and desires that which is most acceptable
to Me, that which will please Me best. It is one who seeks
their will to be My Will always and follows it with a resig-
nation of total surrender.
When I came from heaven for your salvation, I took on
Myself all your pain, suffering and miseries, nor because of
the necessity, but because of My mercy, love and charity for
you. You, in turn, must give all for all. If your love is pure
and if you are humble of heart, you will be free and not held
bound to anything!
Be at peace, and resigned to listen and pray; to do good
according to the pleasure of God, and you will not be at a
loss. If you seek merry things for your own interest, you will
not find rest or freedom or peace because, in everything you
search for, defect will always exist. But if you are humble of
heart, continuously searching to please God and tend to heav-
enly things, you will secure a lasting foundation, one seeded
in great wisdom and purity,
Things will pass away and even My people will pass away
with them, but I am He who does not change! I understand
all and sit in judgment of vanity and affliction of spirit. So
come to Me, you of humble and meek heart – a heart meek
with strength, endurance, not losing courage, but striving for
good. BLESSED ARE THE HUMBLE, MEEK OF HEART.
THEY WILL INHERIT THE LAND!”

“Silence your heart, and you shall see Me. I give to you all of My being, and I await all of your being.”(From Gianna Below)
Are we listening to Jesus? I mean, is He our source of life, light, and goodness? How are people in the world perceiving us as “Christians,” and why is it important that we understand the answer to that? I can typically sit in the church parking lot and look at bumper stickers, or look at someone’s Facebook wall, and tell to some degree where their heart is focused. It tends to be either on Jesus, or one of the political narratives that’s out there in the ether creating mayhem. Sometimes it’s an attempt at both, but I think that if we’re wearing our worldly political opinion like a badge, it’s unlikely our heart and soul are focused on our Lord and Savior. Does Jesus have our steering wheel guiding us as we bring others into the light? Or are we so affected by the “noise” in our environment that’s fomenting division by intent, that we wear an “opinion” like a t shirt that alienates half the population around us? We can’t serve God and mammon both, and if we aren’t focused on Jesus, we’re likely enabling evil influence, whether by intention or not. His light shines for all, not just those who agree with us. I think that if we spend more time in true silence, reflecting on Him, He will allow us to see others as He sees them. Not as the world sees them. And hopefully others will see us as He sees us, that they might join us in the quiet. Bringing His truth, and unity to His Kingdom. Leaving Him in control. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏

Silence of the Heart
“My dear one, I am your Jesus, now in the form of a
presence you are aware of, but I tell you, I am with
you even when you think you are alone! Better to believe
without the affections of the senses to assist you, for this can
only deceive you.
I live in your spirit. I am in your soul. The soul, itself, does
not have feelings. The spirit of the soul is beneath the surface
of the senses. For this reason, I have stripped you in order that
there would be no mistake of interpretation of My Word!
My dear one, how good it is to have My people tend to
Me. How good it is to have you all for Me! You are tending
to Me in the silence of your heart; not only silencing of your
mouth, ears, mind and sight, but your heart. It is this silence
of the heart I wish to speak of to My people.
In order to have a clean, pure heart, there must be a silent
one. A silent heart is one stripped of the feelings of emotion;
but in the presence of My Spirit, which molds the soul, sus-
pends it in a form which adores God. It is a centered silence,
centered on God. You cannot see God unless your heart is
clean! I have said, Blessed are the clean of heart, for they
shall see God. When your heart is silent, you can see God
everywhere and in everyone, because your heart is pure.
If My people would quiet their minds, adore Me and come
follow Me, seeking after My Way, they would be likened to be
Saints, My saints. It is My desire for all My people to seek and
follow My way with the purity of heart. I hide nothing from you.
Silence your heart, and you shall see Me. I give to you all
of My being, and I await all of your being! I will never force
You because of My love for you, and the fruit of My love for
You is My service to you. The fruit of this service is the silence
of My heart! I am the whisper, the cool gentle breeze refreshing
Your scorched soul. Silence the heart and live in faith of Me.
The fruits to bear all will be of love and service, returning back
to Me in My heart where My silence of love exists.
Always unite together and avoid disputes. WHOEVER
IS FOR ME CANNOT BE AGAINST ME. I am the Word
made flesh.
Peace, My dear one. Give to Me, My people, the silence
of your heart, and I shall give to you a clean, pure heart, a
heart that sees God. Ad Deum.”
