“Faith is movement. It is the living faith which allows you to make progress moving from the finite world into the infinite Being of God.
Therefore, My people, when your feelings are lost, when
you have no desire for God because you are constrained and
your will is arid, when you think you are incapable of spiritual
advancement, know you are in a healthy place. So do not be
upset or worried! I will make you free.”(From Gianna below)
The world puts so many things before us that cause us doubt, and even hopelessness at times. Sometimes God gives us signs of hope that we can’t deny, other times we go through dry spells, and endure feelings of abandonment, wondering if we matter in the grand scheme of His perfect plan. Faith isn’t always easy, but God is not only eternal, He is right here and now, ready for our complete abandonment to Him, His Plan, and His Will. All other narratives and fear based agendas need not matter. We need to pray, to hope, and to immerse ourselves in His Word and His Scripture so that each of us can be dutiful stewards of His light as He intends for us to be. Our time here is very short, and He is here to guide us through His plan, that we not so much concern ourselves with it, but abandon ourselves to it. Reliance and submission are ours, control is His. We need to remember in every instance, and in every aspect of our being, that He is in fact, The Way, The Truth, and the Life. Our job is love. May we carry it out dutifully, and immerse ourselves in it that we might share it with every being we encounter. In His perfect Light. Totus Tuus.❤️🙏
As told to Gianna Talone Sullivan, Nov 27, 1992, I am your
Jesus of Mercy Vol IV
Rely on Faith
“My dear little one, l would like to speak about spirituality.
This last lesson before My lesson on Mercy is needed
so that My people fully understand what mercy entails.
I am your God Who loves and I am with My people at
all times, even when they think that they are all alone. The
entire movement of signs and spiritual experiences, initiated
by My Divine touch, is to take you away from yourselves!
For you to ascend, it is necessary that you rely only on faith
in Me, and not on the experience.
I bless my people with aridity so that they are not preoc-
cupied with their position on the spiritual path! When I strip
you of the illumination of experiences, then the real insight
you have is lived out in your life, revealing My Presence. It
at times can be painful, but it is far better for you not to focus
on your spiritual image.
Your spiritual image has no value, if you hope for ful-
fillment in yourself over Me! Spiritual image cannot matter
more than God!! All must learn to rely on God, and not on
themselves. All desire to have pleasures of joy, happiness and
possessions. I desire also for you to prosper! You can achieve
these by seeking God alone and by putting aside your own
satisfaction in directly seeking these pleasures.
I wish to bring you to fulfillment by a way that I have de-
signed specifically for you. You will find yourselves by losing
yourselves. A detached heart has great joy and comfort, and
knows pure love in all that there is, both human and divine.
In order for you to receive all that I wish to give you, you
must empty yourselves.
Even My people who have made progress spiritually are
often times at a distance in understanding how critical it is
that I be at the center of their lives!
I call all to a deep dimension of faith because this is
where true union with God exists. This is where you ascend
in prayer. The Church does not place too much weight on il-
lumined experiences for this reason. Faith is movement. It is
the living faith which allows you to make progress moving
from the finite world into the infinite Being of God.
Therefore, My people, when your feelings are lost, when
you have no desire for God because you are constrained and
your will is arid, when you think you are incapable of spiritual
advancement, know you are in a healthy place. So do not be
upset or worried! I will make you free.”
