SURRENDER TO MY WILL When you go that extra mile for Me I know the exhaustion you feel. Know You have expended a great deal of energy for Me. Trust that even as you sit here and write on your hand held computer I am lifting you up. You will feel the difference at the end of our visit. My friend, I am so proud of you. You have given your all for Me. What a wonderful gift you are! You just keep on going. My energy sustains you in all that you do. There is just something special about you. That keeps Me loving you more and more. Do not worry. You will not fall apart. You have My word on that. Rest now in My quiet. I wish to minister to you. What a tiger you are! A RECLAMATION PROJECT Dying to yourself is never easy. It requires the recognition of the fact that something within you is not of Me. I have instilled within you the desire to seek out and to expunge any aspect of yourself that must be rejected and changed so as to purify your being. In this way you can come to know even more of Me. As that which was not of Me dies, Sometimes you are aware fully that this exchange is occurring. Many times there is just a vague sense of discomfort as this exchange takes place. Just begin to think of yourself as an eternal reclamation project. I am the Foreman. My angels are My crew. My Most Holy Spirit identifies the work to be done. Your presence before Me is your affirmative response. When what is to be reclaimed is deeply rooted, you feel the pain of the repair work. My Sanctifying Grace is like Novocain. It numbs the pain. It brings you relief you never thought possible. When all the work is complete you rest in My peace. You are content that My work has been accomplished. You feel My True Presence within your heart and soul. Be at rest for awhile. I notice another piece of you. FIVE MINUTES Five minutes is all you need. Stay awake with Me. You are going to succeed, My friend. You waited ninety minutes with Me! You have fought off sleep. That is a major distraction to just being with Me. We worked together. You made it. Come to Me in the Eucharist. I will restore your wakefulness. Good for you! YOU SKIMMED THE SURFACE OF HEAVEN You skimmed the surface of heaven. You did so by staying awake. Your sleepy head just would not give in. That's wonderful. You do not understand, but that is okay. One day you will know what you have done. Then you will be ever so grateful. You struggled to come to Me. You will be thankful you fought off sleep. Be patient. In time all will be clear to you. FEAR NOT Fear not, My little one. I am with you. I know the concerns of your heart. I know the despairing, destructive thought within your soul. I know how hard it is to put all of these concerns and thoughts aside. Give them to Me for today. Just be with Me for awhile. I know this seems impossible. Is that your will this morning? Good. Then I will help you. Stop writing. (After a pause) Letting Me rule your life does not preclude pain. I am the booster shot for your soul. I inject you with My Love when you are in pain. I enter in. I assess the damage caused by life's events. I review the damage to your thought Will yourself to be with Me just for awhile. I will blot out your thought patterns. They stem from your damaged, imperfect humanity. They are not helpful. They cause many other problems. I then begin to insert My thoughts into your mind. I offer alternative thoughts and perspectives. They inspire hope within you. You begin to accept My way of looking at things. You place everything in My hands. You begin to see. You have a powerful friend in court. I then let you know in some small way. I am in charge. Then everything quiets down. You know that. Even though you feel like a helpless loser, I am on the job. You are no longer helpless. You are no longer a loser. You recognize that I, Jesus, have everything in My hands. You have peace for a while. You can begin to just be with Me for awhile. Let Me ask you. How can your thinking about your problems for this hour change anything? You know it can't. You know that in this hour with Me the only thing that can change is you and your attitude. That's enough for Me. Hopefully it will be enough for you. I DARE YOU TO LET ME LOVE YOU My work within your soul has just begun. Today I will write My law of love indelibly on your soul. You will never forget this lesson of love. I will constantly remind you of its ramifications. You sit here day after day. You mindlessly write My words on your hand held computer. You have no true understanding of what you are doing. You do not understand why you are writing these notes. You just feel called to do so. You come in obedience. You come out of curiosity. Those are two mainstay attractions. They draw you to these early morning trysts. You believe, rightly so, that I am the Most Holy Spirit . You believe I speak to you in this manner each morning. I tell you now that your obedience, your curiosity and your belief are all truthful expressions of your heart's desire to be ever so close to Me. In your blind desire to grow in knowledge and understanding of Me, you have uncovered aspects of yourself you never knew existed. I am Jesus, the Messiah, speaking to your heart I speak each morning to you. Let Me put your heart and mind at rest. There is nothing to fear. Your perseverance in seeking Me out day in and day out has uncovered the wellspring of My love that is the foundation of who you are. You have reached upward to Me. I have opened My love for you more fully than before within you. This love is infinite. I dare you to reach up for Me again and again. In fact, I double dare you. I know you can't resist a dare. So I give you one you can't ever resist. Reach for My love every moment of your life. I bet you can't do it. I double dare you. I am so happy to see the smile on your face. I thought you had lost your sense of humor... such as it is. Now I've really touched a nerve. Good. You will laugh for eternity. Oh My friend. My heart aches to love you to life each day, each hour and each moment. That is how special you are to Me. Let Me refresh your heart and soul as frequently as possible. I know I don't have to dare you to be open to My love. You just are. That is what pleases Me most about you. You just are always open to Me. You are discovering how open I am to showing you more and more of My love. I send out My eternal greeting of love to you from My Sacred Heart Let Me touch your hurting heart. Let Me restore your doubting spirit with the eternal grace of My faith. You will never stray from Me. Do you not know how much I love you? In these stolen moments of silence I touch you ever so gently with My love. It is My wish that you feel this touch today. So, My friend put down your pen and just be with Me for awhile. I dare you to do so. BRAVE THE BRIDGE Brave the bridge that crosses into My new world for mankind. Rush ahead blindly seeking after My love! Trust My voice calling to you in the fog of your psyche. I am real. Strike out boldly towards Me. Let Me be your eyes for awhile. I will not lead you astray. Trust Me even though you cannot see Me. Trust Me when all of your humanity cries out doubt. I am here. If you but lift your voice in praise to Me, I will remove the fog of desolation that surrounds and suffocates you. Reach out to Me. Let your hands grope through the smoke of extinction. I will grasp your hand. I will lift you through the storm of doubt. I am the window of your soul. The clarity of what is to be is seen through My eyes. Let Me be your eyes just for awhile. The cloud of self surrounds your mind. You cannot think clearly for you constantly get in the way. Let My Spirit rule your mind. Only when My Spirit rules your mind will you have the clarity of thought essential to maintain My vision in your soul. Let Me lift the cloud of you that hides My face from you. Let Me open the windows of your soul and free you from the prison of your mind's eye. It is your mind's eye that contains the prism of negativity and finity. Let Me pluck out that eye that constantly distorts My reality. I wish to free you from all distortions of mind, body and spirit. Then, and only then, will you see the path across the abyss between your selfish world and My eternal world. Brave the elements that seeks to confine you to mortality. Step out across My eternal walkway. I call you in the silence of your heart. Come to Me. Be not afraid. I go before you. I clear away all obstacles to your union with Me. Come, My little one. Bravely step forward to Me. There now! You are home with Me. You are safe in My arms of love. You are home. You are home.
