“My faithful people, by the light of their holy faith, have rekindled the darkness to light. They offer Me the sacrifice of justice with holy lives. They are the pearls of My mercy through their upright and holy lives.”(From Gianna below)
Had I read this a couple of decades ago, I’d have pictured people “leading holy lives” as stiff and pious. People you couldn’t be yourself around because they seemed “too perfect.” I didn’t get out much in those days, but we all learn new things as we move forward in faith and spiritual maturity. Now some of those people are in fact stiff and pious, but I don’t think most of us embody that kind of persona when we’re acting in true service. I see lots of truly holy people smiling, laughing, and hugging as they not only immerse themselves, but share in God’s grace as they walk each other through life on this plane. We should enjoy each other and each other’s company, and bring God’s grace in a way that allows us to experience it in the world, in the throes of “normalcy.” To allow His “Kingdom to come on earth.” That piece of Our Lord’s Prayer has been resonating heavily with me lately, as it’s our whole reason for being here. May we stay in His light, as we bring His Kingdom to light here on Earth, as it is in Heaven. In perfect love. Totus Tuus.🤗❤️🙏

THE OPPORTUNITY OF
KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM
“My dear little one, I your Lord God am merciful. I have not dealt
harshly with My people as in the days of old when Moses pro-
claimed My covenant to My people. They were a wicked generation
not willing to follow My way and change their stone hearts from
evil ways. I have made a new covenant with My people through
the sacrifice of My life in order that they would be saved from final
damnation. I have told My people that I am a merciful God and that
I want repentant hearts. I have kept My promise from past ages of
leading My people out from exile to the land of milk and honey.
I have protected My people, clothed them, fed them, and I have
walked among them. Why do so many of My people turn from
Me and choose the comforts of this world instead of the long-last-
ing eternal comforts? They continue to show Me their disinterest
in knowing Me. They have no desire for the opportunity to grow
in knowledge, wisdom, compassion or charity. Their desires are
short-lived in momentary pleasures of self. They have forsaken
Me. How long should this continue before I hide My face from
them and close the heavens?
My faithful people, by the light of their holy faith, have re-
kindled the darkness to light. They offer Me the sacrifice of justice
with holy lives. They are the pearls of My mercy through their
upright and holy lives. They render Me glory and praise, despising
vice and embracing virtue. These, My beloved people, through their
desire to grow in the opportunity of knowledge and wisdom, are
the soothing balm on My most broken heart. By living virtuously,
they cauterize the wound of sin in the world, giving Me honor
for the salvation of souls. They do not think of themselves, but of
My honor. Their service is unconditional. These are My people,
where in My garden they dwell. Their actions are the peace and
light in the minds of all people. For My faithful ones have upheld
My Holy Church.
My people with indifference and disinterest in correcting their
sin continue to act like blind ones, pretending not to see their ways.
They fear of the loss of their position or material goods; and they
are deprived of the light of knowledge and of all grace, all because
of their lukewarm hearts of indifference and disinterest. They do not
correct their faults. They do not attempt to pray unless they receive
consolation in return. They do not stand firm in penance, so they
are blind and confounded in guilt. My people who are dwelling in
My sweet fragrance of mercy do not act as such. They do not fear
to correct their ways and ultimately burn in the inextinguishable
fire of My love. They are My angels of light.
Make known to My people My truth, little one. Never fear, for
I walk amongst you, clothe you, and provide you food to eat. Do
not be afraid. I am with you, never to leave you. Tell My people
My words. Pray for My people. Bring them to Me in prayer so that
none may be lost. Peace, little one. My peace I give to you. Share
My peace with all people. I have rested My hand of authority on
you. Bring all My people home to My Most Sacred Heart. I bless
you. AD DEUM.”
