When You Look at the State of the World

                My dear loving merciful Lord, my heart aches as I think about our world today and the status of the Church throughout the world. I see a mess, a huge confused mess that only You know how to make right. It boggles my mind to think how in today’s world, using modern technology, we can view the whole world at one time, not only its appearance, but also its cultures, its people and its spirituality. In historical times, this was impossible. What was happening on the other side of the world wasn’t shared throughout immediately the way it is now. One would think that with a bird’s eye view of the world, we would strive for more unity and the Church would be strong. Instead, the Church seems more divided than ever and worse of all, the Church is being pushed away or ignored all together. Humanity has become so egocentric that it is unified in its dysfunctionality and its self-importance. The more we learn about science and technology, the more inward we gaze instead of looking beyond ourselves and celebrating the mysteries of You. Corruption spreads like a disease and I wonder how You observe all this and remain loving and merciful. I abhor the fact that I too can be caught up in the raging torrents of the world and its shallow ways.

                “My dear passionate, contemplative child, you ponder these things in frustration, but you forget that it is all part of My plan. I am patient, loving and merciful because I know the whole story. You are only privy to a small window in this epic battle for souls. All will be well in the end. I have placed you in this story at this time because you have an important part to play in it. I have given you many gifts to prepare you for your part. Do not lose hope or focus, you are precious to Me and I will protect you. Do not be distracted by the noise around you. I am here and everywhere. Listen carefully for My presence and even when all seems a complete mess, I am there. Love will straighten out and conquer everything. Love is the creating force I use for everything. Anything else is love distorted, but everything can be repaired by love. That is why I remain loving and merciful, because I am the embodiment of love. I created everything out of love. I work only in love and with love. There is no other way for Me and so My people will be with Me for eternity because of and through love. Remain open always to love. Do not build walls around your heart. Keep your heart and soul open to receive My love and you too will act in mercy and love to all those around you. That is how we will clean up the mess together. Always remember the big picture. The view of the world and its people and cultures is only part of the whole picture. I also see eternity and heaven and all of us in loving bliss. Remember that bigger picture when you look at the state of the world and the Church. Trust in Me and trust in love for they are the same.”

Healing Broken Souls

                My loving merciful God, my heart swells with love today. I see Your work on broken souls and it makes me cry. Your love is the only thing that can truly heal Your children and when I look into their tear filled eyes, my heart aches for them. Lord I pray for them to feel Your love, truly feel Your love. I pray for them to feel Your peace, to truly rest in Your immense peace. I pray for them to be filled with joy, everlasting joy and happiness that flows from Your blessed Sacred Heart. My God my King, my love, my heart is pounding and I want to scream from the depths of my soul, “RUN TO HIM! Feel His immense love for you!” Lord, Your love is amazing and I am in awe. Thank You for loving me.

                “My dear little living child, I am holding you now close to My heart. Can you hear My heartbeat? Be the light in the world. Bring all souls to My beating heart. I so long to heal My many children who are hurting, who are broken, who are lost. I will heal all who ask. This world is meant to be filled with the overflowing love of all hearts. Float in that river of love, dance in the sparkling light that emanates from Me. My dear little loving child, come to Me often so that I can rekindle this flame of love that burns in your heart right now. Trust in my healing presence at all times for I will give your rest and all you need to walk on that path to My heart with a long line of pilgrims behind you.”

As You Faced Your Passion

                Dear Lord, my one true love, I come to You today as one of the crowd experiencing the events of Your Passion which are coming soon. You have arrived in Jerusalem with the laying down of palms and the people cheering and smiling, so excited to see You. My lips turn slightly into a smile as well, but there is pain in my heart because I know what is coming, and those welcoming crowds will be replaced with people condemning and full of anger. You also know, yet You continue to enter the Holy City. What was in Your heart and mind as You looked into the eyes of the people welcoming You? As You look into the hearts of people now who await Your return, what is in Your heart and mind?

                “Dear inquisitive child, you cannot truly understand My heart and mind at these important moments, but I will say that you must remember, with Me there is no time, so what is in My heart, you ask, at these moments is what is in My heart and mind always. I have orchestrated this plan, complex and multifaceted, so that we will all be in eternity together. My mind is full of how to open the gates to My eternal home for all of My beloved children. I don’t want to lose a single one, so My mind is razor focused on achieving My end goal. My heart is full of pure love, nothing but pure love, deeper than you can imagine, more intense than you can begin to feel. The love in My heart drives everything that happens. You see it in time increments so you ask what was in My heart and mind then and in the future. Do you see how it doesn’t change? What lies in My heart and mind is your salvation and the salvation of all, even those who ignore Me, who turn away from Me and who even persecute Me and want Me dead. I will ask them as I ask everyone at the moment of death, ‘Do you want to be with Me?’ My mind is forming that question for all everywhere and at all deaths. My heart is full of love begging them to answer YES! That yes is all it takes to be with Me. That yes opens the gate to My kingdom so that I can prepare that person to be with Me forever. Your life on earth is so short and just a tiny piece of the life you can share with Me forever. People cling to power, glory, honor, wealth and pleasure that is just fleeting in the life they live on earth. The life with Me envelopes all those fleeting pleasures into one ever flowing fountain of pure love, pure joy, pure peace that is so much more than anything people experience on earth. Live for the timeless pure love, joy and peace I offer. This is what lies in My heart and mind at all times My inquisitive little child, even while I hung on the Cross.”

Heart and Soul’s Language

                 My loving Lord and God, I humbly approach You to adore You, to honor You and just to be with You. I don’t know what to say but my heart beats in joy just being near You. I don’t see You with my eyes but my soul senses Your presence and my heart leaps in my chest knowing You are here.

                “My loving child, you don’t need to say anything at all. Your heart and soul speak in a different language and they speak more eloquently of your love for Me than your lips ever could. Your mouth is a tool I give to My people to use on earth to speak to each other but for Me, I hear all languages, particularly those of the heart and soul. I especially love the heart and soul for in there lies no double meaning, lies or duplicity. The heart tells Me what truly dwells within a soul and only I can see all of it.

                “When people love each other and open their hearts to others, they begin to speak in the heart and soul’s language of love. On earth, you are all meant to learn that language so that when we are all in heaven for eternity, that will be the language we use. So practice it often and learn it well. Don’t worry as much about words on your lips for Me. Use those to glorify Me to the people around you. Keep your heart open to Me so that I may fill it with My grace enabling you to hear and speak my language of love. This language will result in actions of love on earth that will spread the good news and my love to all. So feel your heart leap in your chest My dear for that tells Me more than you can imagine.”

In Your Weakness, You Will Find Great Strength

                My dear loving, powerful Lord, I humbly rest in Your divine presence, weak and unworthy but extremely grateful to be so near to You. My body fails me today but my heart beats strong and my soul longs for You. I dream of our future together where that deep love is all we will live on and there will be no more weakness, worry, sadness or frustration. All will be peace and love and the joy of all of us being joined as one. My Lord, my God, grant me the patience to wait for these days and to prepare my soul for eternity.

”My dear daughter, do not be frustrated when your body is weak for these are the times you lean on Me the most and I long to give you all the help you need. I love when you turn to Me. Sometimes, you forget Me when you are strong so these are times when I will call you through weakness.

 “You search for Me and ask to see something not of this world. Look into the hearts of all My people, all those around you. My divine presence and pure love dwells within all of them. Love them as I do and you will see a glimpse of Me within them. Remember, I am everywhere all the time, you just need to take the time to look in unlikely places. I promise you will find what your heart seeks. I am everywhere with open arms and a loving heart. Yes, you need to prepare your soul to live with Me so let Me give you all you need to continue that process when you come to Me in prayer. Ask and you shall receive my daughter. I know what you need and I long to give it to you. Do not be afraid of weakness for in Me, you will find great strength.”

 

Sparkling Rivers of Love

                My dear awesome, loving Lord, I come before You today, humble and keenly aware of my littleness. Thank You My Lord for loving me and listening to one of Your many creations. I long for peace, I long for tranquility. This world lacks both of these as people push You away and quarrel among themselves and among their nations. You see all people at all times throughout the world, so maybe this current time doesn’t seem that different from days of old, but to me, it seems to be escalating. People have become so entitled and full of self love. It is harder to find those who truly love their neighbors, especially the neighbors who are strangers. Help me possess a heart open to Your love and grace that I may freely share that love with all those around me. Open all people’s hearts so that Your love can flow like sparkling rivers everywhere.

                “My dear loving child, yes I too desire sparkling streams of love throughout all My children. So many people have built strong dams around their hearts that the water can no longer flow out. They try to keep it all for themselves but they forget that standing water will stagnate. Only when it flows does it stay clear and fresh. So yes my daughter, share that love with all those around you. Let the fresh clear water of My love ebb and flow to everyone and help them share it with others as well. Let’s break the dams and embrace the current.”
