Wednesday Truth in Deep Love🤗❤️🙏
“Wisdom leads to knowledge of His love and the comfort of His intimate protection. Those who do not believe God exists have no fear of Him. This is their foolishness being exemplified through their lack of knowledge. True knowledge in God sustains a “holy” fear of Him because what is realized is the little amount of knowledge one has compared to Him. Those who do not believe God exists believe they are all-knowing and righteous. They become calloused and arrogant instead of humble and meek. They become weak, yet they think they have gained power.”(From Jesus to Gianna below)
It’s hard to shake an atheist. I know this because I once “labeled” myself as one, and even with a very hard conversion experience “under my belt,” I find a level of arrogance and militancy that often comes with that mindset that makes it really hard to penetrate. That was me, so I do understand, but now that I understand Jesus, I find “me” of the past actually pretty annoying. I know this is hypocritical of me, so it’s a piece with which I need to “spiritually mature,” and work harder to wrap my own heart, soul, and mind around. I’m not yet in a place where I can effectively communicate with “these people,” even though I was once a hardcore one of “these people.”
The truth is, it was my sins that brought me to Him, and I found that the only way out of the “abyss” that I had cast myself into, was through Jesus dying on the cross as is depicted below. So I immersed myself in Him in every way I could find to do that. Through conversion, prayer, daily Mass, the sacraments, and more than those, through service, and the camaraderie and love, with, and from others with whom I shared and still share that camaraderie. “Kicking and screaming” I like to call it, although it was me who ultimately CHOSE to follow. Once I “saw the light,” I no longer had to be “dragged.” I merely and mostly had to “climb.”
It was in those past times that I could not see the darkness approaching that I see and feel now, but thanks to my Sweet Jesus, there’s a light to guide me as I do my best to carry myself as well as those I touch along His Holy and narrow path.
I love the quote from St John Paul II below, as it so expresses and exemplifies my conversion experience. There was nothing, absolutely nothing, that could “satisfy” or even save me, except for new life in Him.
I suspect that with things in this world going the way they are, there will be many more souls “falling into the abyss,” and needing a way out. I hope and pray that when this time comes that I will be humble, and able to softly and sweetly call and draw “these people” to Him, that we might follow together along His “path to The Father,” where we can remain all in, and totally His, from each of these moments into eternity. That I might be able to stand at the gates of His Kingdom and welcome others to new Life in Him. Light of Jesus shine on Me, and please keep me reminded that deep love is always the only answer to Your Calling. We all have it in us. May we shine His Light in every thought and action, that all might find their way on the Path to His Father.❤️🙏

THE PATH TO MY FATHER
My dear little one, God the Father is loving and wise. Many of My people have a wrong image of My Father. That is because you cannot go to the Father except through Me. All who know Me know the Father. Few people truly know My Father. I take each person to the Father when it is the proper time. The Father desires to have an intimate relationship with all people, but in order to love the Father it is necessary to love Me. In order to love Me it is necessary to love life, to love all people, and to walk the path of My Word, Truth, and Light. The path I walked was designed by My Father.
To know Him is to know His path and to cherish it. I am the Path to My Father. I am the Truth and the Light for the world. Those who receive Me receive Him Who sent Me.
Wisdom comes through loving and simplicity. Wisdom penetrates the heart in the silence of prayer. Those who fear God in all humility have received the first grace of wisdom, for God is all-powerful and all-knowing. Those who are reverent are also wise.
Wisdom leads to knowledge of His love and the comfort of His intimate protection. Those who do not believe God exists have no fear of Him. This is their foolishness being exemplified through their lack of knowledge. True knowledge in God sustains a “holy” fear of Him because what is realized is the little amount of knowledge one has compared to Him. Those who do not believe God exists believe they are all-knowing and righteous. They become calloused and arrogant instead of humble and meek. They become weak, yet they think they have gained power.
The less you realize you know, the more you gain from My heavenly Father; for in your humility you allow Him to grace you with the knowledge of His love. To know Him is to love Him. Wisdom gains you knowledge. To know Him is to be wise. To be wise is to love. To love is to be One with Me. To be One with Me is to be One with My Father, for We are One. My Father has so much to give. His love is endless. He is tender and kind and comforts all in their pain. Yet few seek Him and few desire to have a truly personal relationship with Him because they keep their distance from Me.
There is nothing that God will not forgive in His merciful love when a repentant heart asks for His mercy and forgives himself. Those who seek God’s mercy are humble and they enter the gateway to wisdom and holiness. To seek His mercy is to have a “holy” fear.
Tead all to the Father and I show mercy when approached with a sincere heart. Many are so distant and many choose not to know Him. There are many who are afraid to come to Me even after I have told them of My mercy and My Father’s love. My Father has so much to give to His little children who desire to be dependent on Him and trust Him. I invite all to come to Me so I can take all to My Father.
Pray, little one, for all people to desire the truth and love of God the Father. Their image of the Father will change when they gain wisdom and come to know Him. Pray, little one, pray. For My Father is Good and gives all that is good. He gives life. He has given the greatest Gift of Me to all. Peace this day. AD DEUM.
