Jesus
My dear apostles, I speak to you from My heart, the seat of love. I speak to you freely at this time to teach you about love. I desire that each of you accept My love, which includes the love of all of heaven. Those who are lukewarm and do not accept my love cannot help Me in My goal of renewal. Those who are concerned with establishing their kingdoms on earth will lose opportunities to seed the renewal each day. Those who postpone a full commitment to My goals will find that they are sadly disappointed later, when they realize how important their service was to Me. I rely on My apostles to be passionate about service, seeking always to store up heavenly treasures in the souls of those around them. Truly, no kind word, no compassionate silence, no act of love is lost. Each of these is both used immediately and preserved eternally. I understand that you are tired at times. I understand that you become discouraged. I understand these things because in My humanity I experienced these things. I allow these feelings in My beloved apostles because their service to Me then becomes even more beneficial. Rest assured that you have been given all that you need in strength and courage for each day’s service. There is no difficulty, from heaven’s perspective, in an apostle serving in weariness. Most apostles served in weariness and the weariness that an apostle feels does not mean that the fire of the Spirit is at risk of being extinguished. Have no fear about this because I Myself tend to the presence of the Spirit in your soul. This fire has been expertly banked so that it will burn for as long as it needs to burn. Some day you will be finished with your service on earth. The tasks that I need from you will be completed. This will be a joyful day for you. You will see all that you have accomplished for Me. Yes, weariness comes and goes, but love creates stamina that keeps the servant and the service steady. In the time to come I intend to increase the capacity for love in each apostle. This is necessary for heaven’s goals and will enable My beloved ones to serve with even greater dedication and humility. I will teach you more and instruct you closely in the use of this gift as time passes. This heavenly concession will greatly increase the effectiveness of My presence in your soul. I am so grateful that you seek to remain close to Me. Rejoice, dear apostles. I am with you.

My dear friend,
you will learn so much about love in heaven. You will look back at
your time on earth and you will understand that many things that
occurred to you were both exercises in love and opportunities to
love. There is misunderstanding about love in the world but those
who follow Me, My beloved apostles, seek to master love as I
mastered love, in sacrifice. It is true that love creates joy. This
is true. But when we take on love, it is also at times like taking
on a burden which must then be carried. We should not decide for
love and then, finding that love burdensome at times, set it down
and walk away from it. This is not how it is done. On the contrary,
if you love as I loved, you will find at times that the weight of
love is heavy. I experienced this on Calvary when I carried My love
for you to My death. Did I make the right decision, to pay the
ultimate price for love? Of course I did. What else would I do,
given the wonderful creation that is you? In the same way, I want
each of My apostles to expect their love for Me to be a burden to
them at times. This is normal. I want each of My apostles to expect
their love for others to be a burden to them at times. This is also
normal. In love, there are times when the decision to love feels
light, of course, and there seems to be no burden to it at all.
Rejoice in these times. In love, there are other times when the
burden causes you to question your commitment. Do not be afraid of
these times. This questioning is necessary for your growth. I
experienced this, too. I was tempted toward an easier way. When love
is tried this way and triumphs, that love becomes firmer and less
likely to be disappointed later. Welcome the challenges to love,
even while you decide for love. I will be with you in each
situation, counselling you to humility and gentleness. View each
challenge as a worthy exercise, allowed by heaven to teach you about
eternity. See the opportunities to love all of those around you,
particularly those whom you find it difficult to agree with at
times. Please do not be alarmed when you are disappointed in love,
when others fail you. This was also My experience and this will also
benefit you because it will help you to learn forgiveness. I will
bring you to greater holiness with each experience if you remember
that I am with you and that I love you perfectly and completely.
From the secure place that is My heart, you will go forward with
self assurance, confident that you are cherished. This confidence
will express itself in an increased ability to love those around
you. Be at peace, dear apostles. My plan is such that you will learn
to live like residents of heaven. All is well.

My friend,
heaven has accomplished many things with your service to the
Kingdom. Shall I tell you what we are achieving together? First of
all, we have increased your holiness. It is true, dear
apostle. With your cooperation, I have been able to advance you in
virtue. Consider where you were in the holiness walk when you first
committed to serving as My apostle. Consider where you are now. You
will see that you have advanced, even though you also see that you
have additional work to do in this regard. I want you to understand,
though, that progress has been made so that you will rejoice and
have hope for additional progress. This is good for you and good for
heaven. Next, your service to the Kingdom has been used to bring
light to other souls. Think for a moment. Is it not true that you
have tried to treat others more like I treated others? Is it not
true that there have been times when you returned love for
hostility? Have you not discovered that you view even your enemies
with greater compassion? Think dear apostles. Have you shared My
merciful message with others? Have they benefited? Without your
cooperation, this could not have happened. Yes, many have benefited
because you have chosen to serve Me. Would you like to know of
another result of your service? Heaven, as you know, is filled with
perfect love and comfort. I love all of humanity, of course, but not
everyone returns My love. Because of your cooperation, I, Jesus
Christ, have received a greater amount of love and comfort from your
world. You, in your determination to serve Me, have bestowed upon Me
the greatest consolations. The light from your willingness to serve
as I wish you to serve has given Me comfort in a time when My heart
aches with loneliness for so many. You have truly become My friend
and I hold you in My heart most protectively. All of the intentions
in your heart now move to the regular beating of My heart. I will
not abandon you and I will not abandon your intentions. Together, we
will see to each one of them. The loyalty you feel for your loved
ones is shared by Me in that your holy desires become personal to Me
as they are personal to you. Just as you are determined that your
loved ones be healed, so I am determined that your loved ones be
healed. These are joint projects embarked upon by the Saviour and
His beloved apostle. You are never alone in your concerns or your
crosses. I thank you for helping heaven to accomplish so much and I
will reward you, in part, by keeping the promise I have made to seek
conversion of all of those dear to you. Be at peace in every trial,
please, because I am with you.

I am always with you, dear apostles. You move through your days of
service learning greater and greater lessons in holiness. I am the
teacher. When you offer Me your day, you pledge to remain with Me
throughout it. This in no way diminishes the need for you to
experience your humanity with all of its joys and sorrows. On the
contrary, it is through your daily joys and sorrows that you are
learning the lessons of love. You might think that your cross is
heavy and perhaps in truth the cross that you carry is heavy. You
might think that you would proceed more easily or more swiftly
without the cross. This is possible, My friends, but to what
purpose? Surely, I, Jesus Christ, could have advanced more quickly
and comfortably to Calvary without the jeering of the crowds, the
physical infirmities or the weight of the cross. This is an obvious
statement. But you were destined to be saved by My Passion. The
whole world benefited by My decision to accept God’s will, which
included suffering. In the same way, the world is benefiting from
your decision to accept the crosses in your life. You offer Me your
day. This is such a simple thing from the eyes of the world and yet,
from the eyes of heaven, this is a very large offering indeed. Do
not be afraid of the cross in each day. Do not think that your cross
will interfere with the plan that I have for you. The truth is the
opposite. The plan that I have for you includes suffering, and your
holiness will increase because of your crosses. I do not rejoice in
the suffering of My friends. No, I do not. I do rejoice in the
willingness of My friends to suffer, for Me and with Me. This will
never change. My gratitude toward each of My beloved apostles
increases as each day’s commitment flows into the past. A stream of
allegiance pledges trail behind you as you proceed into tomorrow. Be
at peace in your crosses, I beg you, because your crosses benefit
you in ways that you cannot understand. It must be enough for you
that the Saviour understands. If you are weary, do not be afraid.
You will have what you require to cope and I will sustain you. I was
weary, also. If you falter, do not be discouraged. I faltered, also,
and I will lift you back to your feet. There are no circumstances
that should cause you to be anxious because just as you pledge your
allegiance to the Father, I, the Saviour, pledge My allegiance to
you. I will take care of you, My beloved ones. You will not be
abandoned.

Jesus
We are a faith of waiting. You wait for Me to return to the world
and I wait for souls to return to Me. You feel a longing for Me and
for goodness that causes you pain at times. I feel a similar longing
for souls in the world who have rejected Me and so suffer the pain
of separation from Me. How they hurt. How their wounds disturb them
and cause them to hurt others. My heart sighs with loneliness for
them. I ache to comfort them and console them. I long to heal their
wounds. You, My beloved apostles, comfort Me in this grief by
sharing this experience with Me. I am comforted by your fidelity to
Me which is reflected in your fidelity to the cause of your brothers
and sisters. As I wait, so do you wait and as I suffer, so do you
suffer. I speak to you today, though, to remind you of something. As
I rejoice, so should you rejoice. Rejoice with Me at the return of
many souls just as perhaps others rejoiced at your return. Rejoice
with Me at the healing of many souls, just as perhaps others
rejoiced at your healing. You will rejoice that others return to Me
through your consistent and humble service. We are a faith of
waiting, it is true, but we are also a faith of rejoicing. The
Father’s goodness spreads out over the earth in this time in waves
of kindness and benevolence. You, My beloved apostles, gently push
these waves out with your commitment to My service. The great mercy
of the Father draws souls to My heart, the heart that burns
steadily, a furnace of divine compassion and love. We are waiting,
yes. But while we are waiting, we are preparing. You prepare to
receive your King and I prepare to receive the fruits of your
service. Be at peace, My beloved friends. We serve together, we
suffer together, and we rejoice together. Be assured that you are
loved and that your loneliness is temporary. I am returning.

Jesus
My beloved apostle, I understand your struggles. You are becoming
holier and yet you do not think you are making progress. Dear one,
can you accept that the holier you become, the more holiness you
crave? Can you accept that the more you become aware of your own
flaws, the more willing you are to accept flaws in others? I am at
peace that you are coming to know Me better. Each day brings growth
of some kind for you, even if that growth originates in mistakes
acknowledged and corrected. I understand you, dear apostle. I know
that on some days you are ready for the battle of holiness and that
on some days you feel you are not strong enough for the battle. This
is what I want to tell you. You rise each day and pledge your
allegiance to the Father. This commitment of your day insures that
your Father takes you each day in the condition He finds you. Each
weakness is used to increase your humility and illuminate for you
the path to transformation. Do not become discouraged by the need
for improvement. If you but continue on the path you have embarked
upon, you will experience greater holiness. It can be no other way
because those who pledge allegiance to the Father are cared for in
every detail. Our greatest goal for you is holiness because only in
holiness will you find peace and joy. Look around you. How many have
committed themselves to holiness as you have committed yourself to
holiness? If you look at others, you will see that the Saviour can
count only a few as His committed apostles. And yet, every person,
regardless of their condition, longs for the holiness you seek, even
if their longing is denied and ignored. My heart is moved to such
pity for those who do not seek Me. Let your heart also be moved to
pity. Show constant compassion, never judgement, to those who do not
understand what they lack. I am trying to show you, My beloved
apostle, that you have begun a journey that must be taken by each
person who will spend eternity in the family of God. If others delay
the journey, that is their affair. My beloved apostles understand
that this journey, the journey to holiness, is the most important
journey they will ever take. This is your first priority, My
friends. Continue to make your pledge and I will see to it that you
become holier.

Jesus
My
beloved apostles, please be alert to My will. At no time should you
fear that I do not have a perfect plan for you. Sometimes you make
decisions that are not consistent with My plan. Sometimes these
decisions cause you pain and cause others pain. It is most
especially at these times that you should seek Me because I will
adapt My plan for you to fit your present circumstances. I am always
seeking to bring you closer to Me, never more so than when you
believe you have left the path through temptation or sin. When
should you believe that you are on your own? Never. In which
circumstances will My heart be so hardened that I will refuse to
rush in with forgiveness and grace and an alternative plan for you?
Such circumstances do not exist. My dearest little apostles, be
assured of My willingness to work with you in each moment,
regardless of your condition in that moment. In humanity, there are
moments of such holiness that even heaven stops to marvel. In
humanity, there are also moments of weakness and cruelty. Please
believe that heaven takes the bad with the good and moves each
willing soul toward greater and greater good. Heaven draws you away
from temptation and away from the pain of sin. I am good, My
friends, as My Father is good. You, My beloved apostles, are called
to resemble Me and be good also. You strive for this, I know. Today
I ask that each apostle consider that I treated others with
kindness. I have instructed you about gentleness and today I
instruct you about kindness. Little apostles, the hearts of others
are easily wounded. Can you remember when someone treated you
unkindly? Do you remember your pain? I was treated unkindly at times
and My heart felt this same pain. We do not want this for others. We
want others to understand that God loves them and you, My friends,
will do that when you treat them with the kindness of the Father. I
will help you if you allow Me. I will teach you to remain silent in
the presence of other’s faults and I will teach you to speak
openly about their strengths. Pause again and try to think of a
kindness that was shown to you. Do you remember how you felt at that
time? You felt grateful, did you not? You felt steadied. I want to
flow through you to others. You will allow Me to do so if you work
each day on being kind to each person you encounter. Their pain will
lessen because of your kindness. The pain of the whole world will be
reduced if each of My beloved apostles learns to be kind. Begin by
being kind to yourself. I accept you, My friend. You must accept
yourself. Be at peace in My love for you. I do not give you an
instruction without also giving you the grace to carry it out so now
I will teach you about kindness.

Jesus
Dear
apostles, I send you a spirit of gentleness. Because you are called
to treat others as I treated others, you are called to be gentle
with all those around you. This call to gentleness in no way
diminishes the call to live in the truth. If you preach the truth as
I did, gently, you will draw others to us and to unity of thought
and action. In this time, when it is so important that souls be
brought back into the family of God, we must be ever so careful to
be gentle with others in each interaction. I am Jesus. I am filled
with love for each soul you encounter, regardless of their
condition. View each person through My love and treat them with My
gentleness. My dearest apostle, in order to allow yourself to heal
from any wounds you yourself suffer, you must allow Me to minister
to you. I am tender hearted with your failings. Remember this and do
not turn away from Me when you feel you have failed. If you do not
allow Me to minister to you during periods of unrest, you will be
vulnerable to the distortions which can be sown by the enemy.
Apostles walking with Me inspire hope in the world. This is the
plan. But My friends must remember that apostles walking with Me
also inspire fear in the enemy. The enemy’s fear causes him to
lash out at the friends of the Returning King. Be at peace in this
as it has always been this way and there is no reason for anything
but confidence in My plan for each day of every life. At the same
time, be prepared to do battle for your holiness as I did battle. If
you remain with Me, the battles will make you stronger and holier.
That is My goal. Accept the gentle ministrations of your Saviour in
silence and you will then be an able carrier of this gentleness to
others. Beloved friends, so loyal to your God, you will stand out if
you are gentle and it is this that I need from you. I need you to
stand out as calm and gentle representatives of the different way.
The world will remember you for your gentleness if you allow Me to
teach you. You are not called to change the world. I am called to
change the world. You are called to represent Me accurately so that
I have the opportunity with each soul you encounter. Through your
love, your kindness and your gentleness, you will create heavenly
opportunities for Me in the people around you. I will never miss an
opportunity, I promise you. I make the best possible use of your
efforts. I thank you, dear friend. Your fidelity to the Father will
not be forgotten.

A
small child often prays that God will help him to be good. This
prayer is pleasing to God. Indeed, which prayer is more pleasing? A
child prays this prayer in humility and simplicity from a pure heart
seeking even greater purity. It is this purity of heart that all
apostles must seek. Each day should be filled with brief prayers of
this kind. If an apostle wishes to reside with the Father, that
apostle must become the child of the Father. God has no equal. Do
not seek greatness. Seek goodness. My beloved ones, you know that I
love you and that I am grateful for your service. You know that I am
pleased with your progress. Do you wonder why your Jesus calls you
constantly further into holiness? Do I do this for My benefit? Yes.
I do. I take great joy in seeing you advance, it is true. And yet,
it is for your own personal benefit, also, that I call you to strive
for higher heights. I want you to become as holy as you can. As your
holiness increases, my friends, so does your peace. As your peace
increases, so does the peace in this world. It is for many reasons,
all similar to these, that I beckon you to come further and further
into My heart. You are called to come closer to Me and move further
from distractions. You turn your face toward heaven and in doing so
you turn your face away from the world, which seeks to draw you away
from Me. For today, pledge your allegiance to the Father and then
strive to become holier. “Father, help me to be good.” In each
moment of your life there is an opportunity for goodness. Find the
opportunities and try. Exert yourself, my beloved ones. Work for
your holiness. If you were participating in a game, you would try to
win. I want you to participate in your movement to holiness. I want
you to make efforts throughout each day to choose the holiest
course. I am with you in each moment, helping you. If you, my
beloved apostles, will work with Me to become holier, I can reach
others through you. But that is My affair. Your affair is to try to
become as holy as possible. Have no fear. You are loved.

I am with you. How often I repeat this. I, Jesus,
am with you. I, Jesus, will never leave you. I see everything that
occurs in your life. I understand exactly where your pain
originates. Like nobody else, I understand you. Much of the
suffering my little ones experience is from loneliness. Even if you
are surrounded by others, you can feel lonely. You see, dear
apostles, each person feels alone until he rests with Me. It is only
after becoming united to Me that you can love each other as you were
intended to love each other. There are many who do not allow unity
with Me. I cannot force Myself upon them, because they are free to
reject Me. But because they reject Me, they cannot love others as
they were intended to love others. Others, sadly, remain unloved.
Others become wounded. Others strike out in their pain, causing more
distress. Humanity was created to live on earth connected to God. My
apostles, even though you struggle, you remain connected to Me. I am
able to heal you and send love through you. The signs of My presence
are all around you, even though you struggle. Believe this. If you
look at a person who has rejected Me, you will see signs of that
rejection. If you look at a world that has rejected Me, you will
also see signs. My beloved ones, when you see signs that God has
been rejected, you must remain peaceful. I, Jesus, have told you
that change is necessary. I, Jesus, have told you that I desire
change. I do not abandon you and I do not abandon the world. I have
many friends in this world and you are among them. You trust Me, I
know. I will honour the trust you have placed in Me. I will bring
all things to the good, both in your life and in the world. I, the
Blameless One, have never betrayed another and I will not betray
you. Think often on the promises I have made to you. I have said I
will never leave you. I have said I will protect My interests in
your soul. I have said I will pursue conversion of your loved ones.
During this time, I want each apostle to consider these promises.
Serve Me in steadiness, of course, but also, serve Me in peace. Dear
apostles, you are connected to Me. You accept My love. You know that
just as I cherish you, I cherish all others. My dear friends, please
live these truths because others are looking to you for example.
Please. Give an example of joyful trust. I need this from you so
that I can draw hurting souls back to Me. I am with you. I will help
you to do this.

Jesus
Heavenly
consideration is the compass which will insure a true course for
each apostle. In every situation, consider heaven’s goals for you
and for those around you. The apostle who gives thoughtful
consideration to heaven’s goals will be known for speaking less,
rather than more. This apostle will make decisions in My company,
aware of My goals. I would ask each of My apostles to practice this
today. Move into your day gently, aware that I may wish to adjust
your course several times. You expect one thing, perhaps. But I,
your Jesus, may need something else from you. You are committed to a
certain plan, perhaps. But I your Jesus, may have chosen a different
plan altogether. Only with thoughtful consideration will you be
alert to My will in each situation. Apostles, you have been prepared
to serve in the manner that I require you to serve. You have been
taught many things about holiness. If you are humble, you are aware
that there are many things still to be learned about holiness. If
you are humble, you may protest, saying, “Jesus, I am not ready. I
must become holier still.” I understand your weaknesses and
struggles. I do not fear the limits of your humanity. I have
factored your weaknesses into the plan I have for you. You should
never be afraid that you lack the holiness to complete the mission
that I have willed for you. I will make you holy if you proceed
according to My directions. You shall have all you need. Please
begin to use all that you have been taught. Begin to see others as I
see others, in need of love and tolerance. You have been taught not
to make judgements. Do not make judgements. You have been taught to
spend time in silence. Spend time in silence. You have been taught
to trust Me. Trust in Me now, today. You have been taught not to be
afraid of the future. Do not fear the future. Dear apostles, you
have been taught to pray. Pray. Now, today, every day. Pray. Ask Me
for mercy for this world. Ask Me for conversion graces for this
world. Ask Me for the Spirit of truth in such an abundance that all
eyes will be opened to God’s truth. My beloved faithful apostles,
I want you to use everything you have been given to serve Me so that
others may be saved. I am with you. I will direct you in each
moment. You must be at peace so that others can learn about peace.
You must be calm so that others can learn about calm. Do not
underestimate the power of setting an example of heavenly
consideration. It is this consideration in each apostle that will
ultimately allow Me to reclaim a multitude of souls for the Father.
May

Jesus
My
apostles, I speak to you with such hope. Why do I feel hope when I
speak these words? I, your Jesus, feel hope because you are reading
these words and listening to Me. In your soul, you are
interested in My plan. In your soul you are willing to make the
changes which will bring about My plan. In your soul you receive a
foretaste of heaven which provides you with the joy that I wish to
make available to others. My heavenly plan is truly rooted in your
soul and for this reason I have hope. The times in which you live
provide you with opportunities to practice hope, even while much of
the world feels dismay and fear. My apostles see that the world is
changing and this is the message, a message of hope, which flows
through them. You are precious to Me, both because of the unique
love I have for you and for the unique plan I have for you. Allow Me
to rest in your soul each day and I will fill you with My love.
Where can you find more silence? How can you give your Jesus just a
few more minutes of time to be with you and sanctify you even
further? My beloved apostle, please be disciplined about your time
with Me in each day. I do not want you to be distracted. I do not
want the world to take your hope from you. If you do not spend time
with Me, you are vulnerable to the fears sowed by the enemy of hope.
I rely on my beloved ones. In them I find rest and solace. You see,
dear apostle, if I can change you and fill you with My great
spiritual blessings, I can change others. Is there even one life
that you can say you affected by your faith in Me and by My presence
in you? Do not limit My plan in your mind. My plan is vast and it is
working. Be joyful today as I am joyful. Hope in Me, dear one, as I
hope in you. Trust in Me as I trust in you. Be with Me as I long to
be with you and together we will fill the world with hope, drawing
many wounded souls back into our family of love.

Jesus
My
beloved apostles rest in My heart each time they pray. Truly, when
you come to Me, I am there. There are times when you feel abandoned
as I felt abandoned. I allow this so that you can share My
experience. In this way, by sharing My experience of abandonment,
you come to know Me more completely. Through this intimacy you
become more like Me. My dear ones, it is through sharing My
experiences that you learn to love others who carry crosses. There
are times when your humanity leads you to judge another but because
you have suffered, you offer compassion instead of condemnation.
Each experience in your life, shared with Me, increases your
holiness and your capacity for compassion. Think of the times when
someone treated you with compassion when you expected condemnation.
Think of the times in your life when someone treated you with
kindness and support, overlooking a failure or a flaw. My friends,
you do not always understand but it is the crosses you carry that
enhance these heavenly capabilities in your soul. I know you
struggle. I accept your weaknesses. Do not think that your anguish
is a measure of your holiness. Do not think that because you find
your cross heavy, you are not making progress. I am with you and I
am advancing you, even while you groan with weariness. The Kingdom
will make the best possible use of the inevitable suffering that
accompanies your humanity. Your decision to serve is all that is
necessary to draw graces for others from your life. Be at peace that
I understand your suffering and your movement to holiness. I am with
you in each moment. I take the greatest joy in accepting your
suffering and rewarding it with heavenly gains, both in your soul
and in the world. You are My beloved ones. You are My chosen ones.
The greatest care is taken with each of your little souls. Your
progress is apparent from My vantage point. You must trust Me and
allow Me to access others through you. Think back on our walk
together. Think of the great graces I have flowed through you in the
past. This flow of grace is increasing by the moment and is not
dependant on your perfection but on My perfection. My presence in
your soul brings a perfume into the world that is irreplaceable. I
need you. Our unity, yours and Mine, brings unique benefits to the
Kingdom. Yes, you are important to Me and to your heavenly family.
Rest against your Jesus now as I send you courage and strength and
heavenly calm.

Jesus
My
beloved apostles, how hard you are working. How diligently you see
to My desires. I am bringing you to holiness, slowly and gently, but
certainly. Your course leads you to My heart and in each moment of
each day, you are drawn more fully to Me. You may not feel the
increase in holiness. You may not notice your progress but be
assured that progress is being made. Your holiness blossoms under
the prudent and watchful care of the Divine Gardner. You may wish to
advance more quickly. You may sigh at the labours necessary for
advancing in holiness. I understand both of these things but I tell
you today that you should not be discouraged. It is I, Jesus, after
all, who contemplates your soul and determines the speed with which
you need to progress to arrive at the perfect place at the correct
time. If you were to move too quickly, you might miss this mark. If
you were to stop labouring, you would not advance as far as I
require. Be at peace in the place where you are spiritually and
understand that I am ministering to you constantly there. Be also at
peace that you must labour for holiness, moving constantly forward
in virtue. I am with you. I take your willingness to serve and your
willingness to become holier and truly I flow great things into your
soul and into the world. I ask that each apostle find quiet during
this time, allowing silence to prune the weeds that spring up in
each day’s activity. We work together on your soul, as I have
said, and I, Jesus, expect that there is work to be done. If I did
not expect that your soul needed work, I would say that you had
advanced far enough and I would take you to heaven. When you see the
condition of your soul and you correctly identify that there is work
to be done and projects to undertake, rejoice. Compare your soul to
My soul and you will see a glimpse of the completion of this
project. You must say, ‘Truly, I trust that Jesus will get me
there if I follow Him.’ I will not abandon the project of your
holiness. Neither should you. The personal holiness of each apostle
is given my greatest attention because each project in the world
flows from this project in individual souls. Do you understand? Are
you at peace with this? I need you to become holier each day so that
I can become more present in the world each day. If you are new to
the walk to holiness, rejoice. You are welcome and you will
flourish. If you have been walking toward holiness for many years,
rejoice. You are valued and you are making progress. Through you, I
renew the world. Rejoice. My plan for you and for the world is well
underway.

My
little apostles continue to grow in holiness. Today, I call you to
obedience. It is My desire that you examine your life and bring
obedience into each area. I will help you. Is there an area where
you can improve? Do you wish Me to illuminate this for you? Consider
with Me, your Saviour, where you can do better. There are concrete
areas, of course, but there are also areas where it is the spirit of
obedience that is lacking and by this I mean the spirit of love and
humility. Do not think so much of the condition of other souls.
Concentrate instead on the condition of your own soul. In
consideration of obedience, it is good to think like a small child.
A small child, one who is loved by his parents, seeks to be good and
pleasing. His goodness and small acts of obedience enable him to
feel good about himself and the path of purity that he is choosing.
Some of my little ones in the world have lost this innocence. I want
this for you. It is this innocence that will admit you to heaven,
after all. Together we must cultivate it. Separate worldly opinion
from My opinion because the world will tell you that you are foolish
to be obedient in small matters, for example, if nobody is noticing
you. But I am always with you and I notice you in each moment. Look
at each situation, regardless of how seemingly unimportant, and try
to be obedient. You do not do this alone, but with Me, because
together we work on your spiritual growth. It is our job, yours and
mine. It is our project. It is an interesting and joyful project to
Me. I love nothing better than helping you to improve the
condition of your soul. As your soul’s condition improves, you
learn more and more about Me and how much I love you. Do you want to
learn more about how much I love you? Practice obedience in small
things. I do not expect you to become perfect at once. Do not expect
this of yourself. Be gentle with yourself. I love you so much that I
do not want you to judge yourself harshly. In the same way, I will
never be harsh with you. I will never be hard or cold. You are
cherished, my beloved one. I am your Jesus, always here for you.
Take My hand and I will lead you closer to obedience each day.

I,
Jesus, take delight in My apostles. I look into the world and see My
friends, serving each other and growing in love and truly I
experience delight. My friends, you will be well rewarded. The
holier you become, the easier it will be for you to come to heaven.
That is My goal for you, that you become so holy on earth that your
death be a time of great peace and joy. How I anticipate the
homecoming of each of My beloved servants. I plan for the day and
prepare for the great rejoicing that will take place. You will be
welcomed into eternity by a multitude of apostles, all of whom
served before you. You will recognize your friends and family in
heaven and they will assemble to greet you. Such joyous reunion.
Such well earned reward. My friends, your life will pass quickly,
far more quickly than you can imagine. I speak to you today to
remind and encourage you. I remind you that you are committed to Me,
to My will. Begin each day remembering that you have made a
commitment to serve heaven on that day. If you pledge your
allegiance to God, you are on the side of God. If you are on the
side of God, you are working against God’s enemy. I want you to
reject all that comes from the enemy. Be diligent about your time in
silence and I will reveal anything that I wish you to reject or
abandon. I draw you into My heart, further and further. There is
always a need to advance. Today, I call you to make an even greater
commitment to advancing in holiness. I will help you, of course. I
will make your path even more clear to you. I come today to remind
you of your pledge, but also to encourage you. I look into the world
at this time and there is darkness, it is true, but there is also
light and that light comes from your commitment to Me. The angels
see your service and they rejoice. The saints see your service and
they applaud. Our mother, Mary, sees your service and she is
comforted. I, Jesus Christ, see your service and I experience
delight. You are part of a team, My team. We are the team that
brings salvation and we do that through love. In your heart I am
placing a love for humanity. You will experience this love
individually, for each person with whom you come in contact. This is
how I experience love. I love all mankind and I do this one person
at a time. You must do the same. Love those around you, particularly
those in your family. Treat each person with dignity and respect
because if people see that you are good, they will understand that I
am good. Be at peace. I am with you in everything and your service
delights Me.

Jesus
I speak with determination today. I look at My
lay apostles, serving so diligently to prepare others for My
return, and I am consoled. My heart sighs with the rejection of
some but also lifts in hope at the acceptance of so many. Little
apostles, you are pleasing to Me. You are labouring for heaven and
you are teamed with heaven. Together, we are bringing hope to
those who were formerly without hope. This is the way for you, the
path to holiness. I direct you in everything and you proceed along
this path that I have marked out for you. All is well in your
case. I want to explain to you why I speak with determination
today. I am determined to push out further into the world. I
desire that everyone have the light of heaven. I want confidence
for all and comfort for anyone suffering. I send a great rush of
grace for conversions at this time. This is a time for hearts to
change. Because I desire this, a great many conversions, I am
supplying all that is necessary to achieve this goal. You will
find, My apostles, that many will be drawn to the truth of your
mission. Accept this with profound humility. Show the world how
small you are and they will see how great I am. This is the way to
win souls for the Father. I
am so pleased when an apostle accepts slights and insults with
peace. I am pleased by this because it shows Me that you are truly
accepting the call to imitate Me. It also shows Me that arrogance
is receding and humility is spreading. Oh, what joy this gives to
the infant in the manger. Accepting insults in humility is a most
favourable gift for the King. Truly, I look at these offerings and
I rejoice. When I rejoice, graces flow unhindered and
unencumbered, bathing the whole world. Never underestimate the
power of you, the humble apostle, joined to Me, the determined
God. Together, we are changing the world.

Jesus:
I
am real, dear apostles. Do not worry that you have misplaced your
trust. You will be rewarded for your service and commitment. The
wise apostle understands that he has already been rewarded, of
course. The wise apostle understands that being close to the King
as a trusted servant is a reward in itself because through the
proximity to the King, the servant becomes more and more noble. I
am changing you if you are walking with Me. I am stretching your
spiritual capabilities. My beloved lay apostles will find that the
changes in their soul are constant, but gentle. There is great
spiritual progress available in this time. This is My mercy and
this is My plan. Through the holiness of the few, I will convert
many. Be courageous while I make these changes in your soul. Be at
peace. The Saviour seeks to preserve His plan by calling more and
more into the field of service. Rejoice when you see many
responding. Understand that this plan is for all. You are called.
You are listening to My direction and you are becoming holier.
Through you, I call to others. Others listen and respond, and
through them, I call out again, to more and more. In this way, a
multitude is drawn into the safety of the family of God. Be at
peace, little apostle. All is well and heaven is content that
God’s plan is proceeding. I will never leave you to execute My
plan alone. You will always be acting with Me if you are acting
for Me. Do you understand? I know that you understand because it
is simple. I am with you. I will never leave you.

Jesus
My
children, I am with you. Your God, your Creator, speaks this message
in so many ways. In every daybreak you must hear My voice saying,
‘I am with you.’ When tempted toward despair because of crosses
and hardships, you must hear My whisper saying, ‘I am with you.’
When you look at the work you must do and find it overwhelming,
allow me to move you gently into it with perfect assurance that ‘I
am with you.’ Dearest apostles, so brave, I am with you. I do not
tell you that you will be overcome. I do not tell you that you have
been given work that is impossible for you to complete. Those
messages do not come from Me. Instead, I tell you that you will
persevere and ultimately triumph. Our mission of mercy does not
falter, even though the steps of my little apostles sometimes
falter. This mission pushes through the world with a steadiness that
defies all attempts against it. My apostles experience fear at
times. This is not a problem for Me or this mission. Fear is to be
expected. Bring your fear to Me and explain to Me exactly what
threatens you. If you do this, I can remove your fear. I will
convince you that in My presence, with My power, everything is
possible. You have an expectation of your little boat crashing
against the rocks. I will never allow this. If I am steering the
boat that is your work, you will be carried safely. Push on into
each day with courage, understanding that while you may not be able,
I am able. You may lack courage, but I have courage. You sometimes
walk in darkness, but I have the light with which to see exactly
where your footsteps are taking you. Dear apostles, it is a time for
hard work, yes, but a time for great glory, also. Rejoice. I am with
you.

Jesus
A
deep peace settles upon those who serve the Lord. This interior
peace, heaven’s presence, connects each apostle to their Saviour.
I work in each soul without interruption if that soul welcomes Me.
Around the apostle, circumstances change. Others come and go in
their life and perhaps there is suffering or persecution. My
presence remains a constant, though, comforting, consoling, and
directing. The connection between heaven and each apostolic servant
is the avenue through which I return to the world. How heaven
delights in each commitment. During this time many look to their
Saviour with a certainty that I am calling out to them. Each apostle
hears My call. You have heard My call. Consider today what your
Jesus is asking of you. Consider how I am asking you to serve today.
Dearest apostle, I must insist that you spend time in silence
contemplating My will. I must insist upon this because I require
your service in whatever way I have willed for you during this time.
If you give Me your full attention for a period of time each day, I
can instruct you and prompt you. Also, I can give you a very
important heavenly attribute and that is the peace that I need you
to possess. You must possess this for your own comfort, of course,
but you must also possess this peace so that it flows through you
into the world. Your world does not have peace. My peace has been
rejected by your world. You, My beloved apostles, reject the
world’s discord and accept My peace. That is why you are so
important to Me. I am your Beloved One. You feel My presence, do you
not? Truly, I am with you. Dear apostle, I want to be with everyone
in this way. Will you help Me? I know that you will. Spend time with
Me in silence each day and I will provide you with everything you
need and everything the world requires.
August

Jesus:
I send My apostles the grace necessary for a calm
spirit. With this calm spirit, My followers will bring heavenly calm
to a restless world that trembles with unease. Live your commitment
to time spent in silent prayer and I will place these heavenly
graces in your soul. Others will identify these graces in you
because these gifts are contrary to the gifts offered by the world.
This is another way that My apostles stand out. Do not spend a great
deal of time discussing events in the world. Long discussions do not
benefit the situation. Spend instead a great deal of time praying
for the situation in the world. This will benefit the situation,
along with those around you, and your own little priceless soul,
which becomes more and more beautiful through prayer and silence. I
want each apostle to understand that I have not abandoned this
world. Consider this carefully. I am Jesus. I am God. I have not
abandoned this world. Do not be afraid. I say this, dearest
apostles, firmly. I do not want My apostles to be afraid or to
communicate fear to others. Bring your fears to Me and bring My
peace to others. This is your call, your divine task. Accept this
call as seriously as you accept My love for you and your love for
Me. Our reciprocal love is natural and right, holy and blessed. My
peace in your soul is also natural and right, holy and blessed.
Apostles, be disciplined in those actions that bring you peace and
be equally disciplined in avoiding those things that cause you
upset. Your Jesus seeks to comfort many. Very often, I will do this
through you.
July 1, 2006
Jesus
Be at peace, little children of God. I am with you. Do not think
that you are orphans, abandoned to a world which lacks God’s love.
I seek to bring love into the world in a continuous stream. How My
little apostles delight Me with their willingness to allow Me to use
them for this purpose. I work without pause in each soul that
welcomes Me. You may be asleep, or at rest in another way, and I am
busy at work in your soul, preparing great gifts for your brothers
and sisters who do not know Me. I am tireless. I am determined. I am
forming many saints who will move up the mountain of holiness with
speed in order to serve Me more completely. Do you wish to be one of
these saints? Of course you do. We will work together, you and I, to
move you more fully into My will. How I guard My little apostles.
How I surround them with My protection. I watch your life closely so
that every experience you have will benefit your soul. My little
ones experience pain and carry wounds. This should not frighten you.
I do not judge you for your pain. I look at your pain and remember
My pain and I am compassionate. Your pain will not separate you from
Me. Again I say, have no fear. I am working in your soul to bring My
kingdom to earth through you. I will see to everything. Trust your
Jesus and you will be at peace.

Jesus
I
speak to My beloved apostles today from the pain of My wounded
heart. I suffer for each soul walking the earth without knowledge of
My love. Despite rejection, My love cannot be limited and overflows
into the world. Those who do not welcome the love of the Saviour
continue in loneliness. Those who welcome My love are deluged with
it. Dear apostles, I know that you are weary. You do not see the
full impact of your service on the Kingdom but please believe that
one day you will experience the fruits of your labour. You will
exult in each act of service and each act of self-denial because you
will see the act attached to all of the graces obtained from it. At
that time you will marvel at My generosity. You will also thank Me
for obscuring this from you during your time of service because it
is through this trust that you gain both merits for your eternity
and conversion graces for souls. How many sinners are pulled back
into My Sacred Heart through your smallest act of trust and love in
the face of scorn and mockery? Dear apostles, you must consider
whether or not you yourself were called back to Me through the
selfless action of another. It is in this way that we are a family.
Each apostle is indebted to others for their progress up the
mountain of holiness because the service of each supports and
sustains others. How blessed is the plan of God. My gratitude to you
will endure forever. Continue on in service to the Kingdom and you
will see yourself counted as My friend and loyal follower. Imagine
My gratitude. The enemy taunts God, stating that God’s children
have turned their faces away from heaven. The enemy boasts that
God’s children are listening to the voice of darkness. During all
of this, the apostles of Jesus Christ remain steadfast. Your faces
are turned to heaven and you listen to My voice. Pay no attention to
the empty words of the enemy, My beloved ones. Let My voice console
you and direct you and you will not be deceived. Work for souls, so
that they will accept My love. All is well. I am with you in each
moment.

Jesus
My
friends in the world know suffering. This will not change and it has
always been this way. What separates My friends from those who walk
without Me is the grace that accompanies My followers. If a soul is
willing to accept heavenly grace, that soul’s suffering is
changed. Crosses carried in union with heaven benefit both the
individual soul and the world. When viewed this way, which is the
true way, souls understand that suffering is not a bad thing, but a
valuable thing to be exploited for heaven. Do not think that your
Jesus misunderstands the difficulty associated with suffering.
Always consider the suffering I accepted in the world, on the cross
in My final hours of course, but also throughout My life. I did not
spend My time on earth in comfort and leisure. I worked hard each
day and often did without things that souls today take for granted.
Consider My life on earth in its entirety. Dearest apostle, My
friend, I lived as quietly as possible. I prayed for you every day.
I offered comfort and assistance to others in pain or in need. I
committed Myself to My duty each day and never deviated from My
responsibilities. I did this because I knew that you would benefit
from a model to follow. You see, I spent each day on earth aware of
your life. When I was tempted to become disheartened, I thought of
you, struggling, and I disciplined Myself to be brave and hopeful. I
offered My struggles to God the Father and asked that in return, He
grant you graces of courage and hope. I did not waste any time on
earth, My beloved. Please think often of My life on earth and
understand that I thought of you on each day and set an example for
you on each day. If you remember this, that I walked the earth for
you, you will understand that you walk on earth with Me, someone who
understands your every fear, your every temptation. Be at peace. Let
us walk together. Time cannot separate an apostle from His Saviour.
Again and always I assure you, I am with you.

Jesus
My apostles
seek to please Me. The desire to please your Saviour, all by itself,
gives Me the greatest consolation. If you have the smallest desire
to please Me, little apostle, you can be certain that you have
already done so. The desire to please is only the beginning, of
course. From that desire I move you into active service to the
Kingdom. How badly the Kingdom of God requires steady apostles in
this time. I rely most heavily on those who are consistent in their
service. My little ones see My plan for them in the present moment.
At times My little ones underestimate how I intend to use them in
the future. This is acceptable, of course, because it is best if a
serving apostle remains focused on the day in which he finds
himself. Let Me assure you though, that the level of service I can
gain from you tomorrow and in every tomorrow I grant you, is
directly affected by the level of cooperation I gain from you today.
If you serve Me in completeness today, you can be assured that I am
preparing you for even greater service tomorrow. It is all about
practice, after all. You must practice being holy. My dear friends,
My apostles, do not be afraid of tomorrow, regardless of what occurs
today. My plan is detailed and accounts for everything. I will care
for My beloved friends and their loved ones. I am God. I am
all-powerful. You cannot place too much trust in Me because I will
always out perform your greatest expectations. Serve completely in
today, My friends and I will use you even more effectively tomorrow.
Trust your Jesus. I will protect you.
March 1, 2006
Jesus
Children, My words carry My
love for you. When you
read My words, understand that I send them to you because I love
you. This entire
mission is predicated by My love for you.
You must consider that I speak words in order to help you to
accept My love and allow My love to change your heart.
Sometimes you listen to what I am saying but do not change
your little heart and in this instance My words have not helped you.
At other times, you allow these words to minister to your soul and
then your little heart can change and soften, filling up with the
divine and allowing the divine to direct you.
When this happens, when you allow My words and graces to
alter the way you think and live, then this mission is a success.
The world is changing, dear apostle.
You make a decision to sit quietly with Me and listen to My
words and that small act insures that the world will change because
you are cooperating with Me. My
goals for you include only what is best for you and for the world
around you. In a time
when many seek to direct you to My enemy, I have come to direct you
to heaven. This is a
mercy, of course, and I know you are grateful.
God is consoled by the gratitude of His children.
I want you to use this message to take inventory of your
priceless little soul. Sit
in silence with Me and rest in My perfect and complete love for you.
I accept you, My little treasure, in all of your
imperfection. Your sin
does not discourage Me in the least.
Bring Me your sins. Confess
your sins. Please do
not think that because of your sins your Jesus could not love you.
I do love you, in all of your sin and pain. This mission of
love is in existence because I love you.
I am speaking to you right now because I love you.
Dearest little apostle, you are chosen to work in this world
intimately united to Me. Will
you say yes to Me? Will
you accept My tender and complete love for you and allow Me to
soften your little heart? Do
not turn Me away. I am
your Jesus. I have come
for you. Open your
heart to Me in the smallest way and I will come to live with you
forever. I want only
what is good for you and through what is good for you, I will renew
the world. Please,
accept Me.

Jesus
Dearest
apostle, I urge you to be little in your soul. Only in spiritual
humility will you see the true state of your soul and so understand
the work necessary for you to become holy. Holiness is your target.
If a soul is holy, I can flow great graces through that soul into
the world. Do not think about your own goals, little apostle,
without checking them against My goals. In this time I require many
apostles who strive to be humble. This is the opposite of what the
world encourages. Do you see? Study this concept and you will see
that great smallness is necessary in the Kingdom of God. Souls in
heaven do not tear each other down, but build each other up. My
saints in heaven seek ways to affirm the struggling souls on earth.
They do not consider how to best put themselves forward, but rather
how to best lift a soul toward holiness. You must be the same. I
entreat you to listen to your Saviour. Strive for smallness in your
service to the Kingdom. Be content to allow Me to have the glory. I
will gaze into your soul and see the longing for holiness and I will
make you holy, but I can only do this if you allow Me. My beloved
ones, you will see in my life an example of constant patience with
others. I was gentle on earth and I am still gentle. Because I am
gentle, I am patient with you. You must be patient with others. You
must be gentle with others. You must be forgiving of others,
trusting My ability to work in the soul who allows Me freedom. If a
soul is willing, I will help them. I have told you this. Trust My
words and pray for each other, particularly those with whom you are
called to walk during this time of transition. Dearest friends of
heaven, believe Me when I tell you that all will be well. Your
concern at this time should be to advance in holiness and you will
only advance if you remain small. Be at peace in everything because
My grace is more powerful than any bitter plans of the enemy. I am
asking you to concentrate on your own movement to Me. For each
apostle who gives Me their pride, I give the world My majesty, the
majesty of Jesus Christ, your Returning King.
January

Jesus
My
apostles hear My voice and know that their Saviour speaks. More and
more I will speak to My apostles in their souls, directing their
actions. I am returning at this very moment through each one of you.
Can a plan be more perfect? Bring others to Me so that I can flow
into the world through each of them, also.
Dear friends of the Saviour, together We are changing your
world. When souls feel fear, We will bring calm. When souls feel
anger, We will bring forgiveness. When souls feel abandoned, We will
bring love. When souls feel great grief, We will bring comfort. And
when souls see death, We will bring them to an acceptance of heaven
so that they understand eternal life. Many in the world today do not
understand their inheritance. This creates a fear of death that
prevents souls from living fully.
If a soul accepts the Truth about eternity, that soul works
for Me because the soul knows that glory only lasts if it is
obtained for heaven. The glory of heaven is love and is obtained by
how much one loved on earth. Souls will be disappointed when they
look back on their life if their life was lived in selfishness and
if their purpose in life was to obtain worldly goods. This will be a
disappointment for them, for Me, and for their families if their
families were led astray by this flawed vision of the purpose of
life. If you realign the purpose in your life, I will then help to
realign the purpose for each member of your family. This is My
promise to you. Make Me, Jesus Christ, the purpose of your life, and
I will work through you to claim the world. How can I help the world
through you and through the life I have given you? How you can set
an example so that others will identify Me in you and in your
actions? Think on this, My beloved apostle. Meditate on this. Give
Me the time to direct your soul because your soul and your life on
earth are necessary to My plan. We do not want the Kingdom to lose
souls because you lived a flawed purpose. This will not happen, of
course, because you are listening to Me. But you must give Me the
time each day to work in your soul, to communicate with you, to
restore the precious calm that is Our gift to the world at this
time. This becomes more important each day. I send calm to you. You
bring it to others. I send more calm to you, and you bring more calm
to others. Do not be afraid when you do not feel calm. This means
simply that the world has taken your calm and you must come back to
Me so that I can give you more. This will work but in order for it
to work you must make your commitment to prayer time. Consider today
and each day what time is My time. When
will you sit in silence so that I can communicate with you? If you
do not have a set time, perhaps you will set one now. I love you
totally. I rely on you, My dearest apostle. I am grateful to you in
the extreme and I am blessing your loved ones. I will keep My part
of the bargain. Accept My gift of calm in your life and I will
direct you in everything. Then your life will be lived for God’s
purposes and truly, My kingdom will come.
December 1, 2005
Jesus
Dear children, you were each
created by the Father. He takes the greatest joy in watching your
progress as you learn how to love during your time in the world. You
experience difficulties in this regard but you overcome these
difficulties and you grow and advance. This process of learning to
love and rejecting all that is not love is the real point of your
time on earth. If you were told that you would be coming to heaven
soon, how would you treat the souls around you? How would you view
them differently if you knew that your time with them was limited?
Well, little souls, I am reminding you today that your time with
each of the souls around you is finite. Time will pass and your time
with that soul will be over. If you love each soul in your life, you
will be at peace when your time together is finished. You will feel
satisfaction in that you will know that you tried to love them,
despite the difficulties that arose to make this difficult. These
difficulties or obstacles to love originate from two sources. One
source of difficulty is your own failings and the other source of
difficulty is the failings of the other soul. These difficulties,
which are expected, must be overcome so that you can treat each
other with the pure love that you will experience in heaven. When
you find another soul unlovable, remember that you will be with that
soul in heaven and you will love each other perfectly there. It will
greatly please and console the heavenly Father if you begin treating
others this way on earth. If you had to do this alone, you would
surely struggle and possibly find yourself without the forgiveness
necessary to love each other as we love in heaven. But you do not
proceed alone. You proceed with all of heaven and with Me, Jesus
Christ. I have given you many examples of how I loved during My time
on earth. Read about Me in Scripture, dear apostles, and then be
gentle as I was gentle. Be kind as I was kind. Be respectful as I
was respectful. Be forgiving as I was forgiving. I am with you in
each moment and you may ask me for the grace to love each soul in
your life. I will send you this grace and together, you and I will
prepare you to love like a resident of heaven. In this process, you
will find great joy. This joy is only the very beginning of My
reward to you. Be at peace. Your God created you to love and He will
teach you how to do this.
November

Jesus:
"My
apostles will be known by their love. It has always been this way.
Look for those who treat others gently and you will see My hand at
work. If you begin to follow Me, you will be gentle and loving to
other souls. Dear apostles, during this time I send you great
graces. Everything you need comes from Me. Do not hesitate to answer
My call because you feel you are not holy enough. You are called to
holiness, it is true, but all genuine holiness comes from Me. If you
ask Me, I will send it to you in great abundance. I notice that many
souls fear a commitment to Me because they see only their own flaws
and weaknesses. At this time I want you to stop thinking about
yourself in those human terms. It is your humanity that delights Me,
My friend. It is your humanity that gives Me glory. Souls in heaven
give Me praise, it is true. And I return their love. But when a soul
on earth, acting from faith, makes even the smallest gesture of love
or fidelity to Me, I am given great glory and the family of God is
given power. Yes, each time a soul on earth steps out for God in any
way, the Kingdom grows. Do not put a limit on the importance of each
little act and each little prayer. If you rose each day and pledged
your allegiance to heaven with an honest desire to serve, and then
went out and committed sins all of that day, you would still be
considered a friend to the Saviour. Now I know that you will not do
this because when you pledge your allegiance to Me, you are then
wrapped in great graces. These graces assist you in each moment and
illuminate My will for you so that you can more easily make heavenly
decisions. But I am making a point so that you will understand that
if you try to please Me in even the smallest way, you will change
the world. Each prayer, however small and imperfect, fuels this
renewal. Will you answer My call? I am relying on My apostles on
earth to spread My words and to allow My light and love to flow back
into this world. It is only a difficult job if you rely on yourself.
If you rely on Me, you will see the greatest things happen in the
shortest time. You will be filled with My love for others. Ask Me
for this. When you do not feel My love, remind Me of this promise
and I will make good on it by sending you great love for others.
This prayer always reflects My will and it is always answered. If
you see souls through My eyes, you will love them. Be at peace in
each moment because you are surrounded by heaven. There is nothing
to fear. Let love direct your actions and you will be a part of My
team."

Jesus:
I
have willed a time of great joy for My beloved apostles. Joy is
something that the world wishes to take from God’s children, but
joy is available nonetheless. The world encourages souls to
concentrate on comfort and earthly possessions. I ask you to
concentrate on service. This is a marked contrast, is it not? Let me
explain why concentrating on service brings you joy. If you rise
each day and pledge allegiance to God, you will begin that day with
more thought of serving than being served. In this way, you look at
your day as an opportunity to work for heaven and to work for
heaven’s children, your brothers and sisters. This perspective
sends you into the day as a servant. When the day presents you with
the inevitable opportunities to assist or console, or simply to be
tolerant of your brothers or sisters, you do not view this as a
burden, or an interruption in your entertainment and comfort, but as
a request made to you directly from the Throne of your God. And
fulfilling a request made to you by your God brings you joy.
You serve heaven and we fulfill our part of the agreement by
sending you joy. If all of God’s children were living this way,
there would be great joy on earth and through this joy would come
peace. But if even one of God’s children makes the commitment to
serve as a beloved apostle, there is an increase of joy and an
increase in peace. This is because an apostle does not become angry
when he or she is inconvenienced. That apostle responds in calm
trust when the world presents them with difficulty or even pain.
There is no striking out at others. There is no rebelliousness.
There is peace. The world is changing and it is changing one soul at
a time. Join Me now and make a commitment to peace in your world. I
will send it through you, My beloved apostles.

Jesus:
"God's little children know great suffering on
earth, it is true. There will always be those who are suffering.
Extend the greatest love and assistance to those who carry the cross
because you will carry it one day and you will then benefit from the
help of others. Dear brothers and sisters, all is well. I can say
that all is well because I view all from the perspective of heaven.
Can I ask you to share that view with Me? I will give you this view,
if you are willing to accept it. From heaven I see that souls cry
out to Me. They ask for a relief from darkness. I am sending relief,
My dear faithful ones. I am sending great conversion graces. There
are times when a child is having trouble and the child cannot see
how to solve a problem or remove himself from a situation. The
parent sees more clearly, of course, and often understands what the
child requires to recover. What parent is unfamiliar with the
protesting cry of the child who wants to do it his own way, despite
the danger of the child's intended path? The parent must then step
in and avert the child's course, showing the child the better and
safer way. Such protests a parent must endure. But a good parent
perseveres in the course that will benefit the child in the long
run. I am the parent in this time. I am looking at the world and I
have decided that it is time to pierce the darkness with My light. I
have told this to My beloved apostles. Please trust Me. Please
support Me. Please do as I ask and examine your role in the Renewal
each morning, when you offer Me you day. I will then continue to
flow My light through you into the world. Dearest friends, I am your
Saviour. I do not abandon you. Do you understand that heaven is your
intended destination? Do not object when others come to heaven. It
is for this they were born on the earth. I understand earthly grief.
You know that I understand because I experienced great human
grieving on earth. I will comfort you. I will sustain you. You have
been asked to spread My heavenly calm. All is well. You know this
because I am telling you this. You are one who believes your God.
Spread My calm, My grace, My joy. Will you support your Jesus in
everything? It is this I am asking of you. Rest joyfully in your
soul with Me. I will give you exactly what is needed for your world
and you will be a holy carrier of My grace. I am with you.
Rejoice."

"Listen to your Saviour, My dear ones. I am
speaking to every soul on earth at this time. I am with you in each
moment and I will never leave you. You must accept each experience
in union with Me. You will have difficulties if you begin to follow
Me but you have had difficulties in the past. I do not wish My
apostles to believe that life without service to Me would mean life
without difficulties. If the cross is weighing you down, bring it to
Me. I am the expert at carrying the cross. It is understandable that
you will need help with your difficulties and it is only sensible to
come to the Expert for that help. This is a sensible approach to
living your life and carrying your cross. Together, we will continue
on. You will support Me in My mission of mercy and I will support
you in everything. The benefits of service to heaven are complete.
There is nothing you lack when you serve heaven because heaven knows
your every need. You offer Me your day each morning. Be aware that
this act is mutual. When you give Me your day, I am allowed into
that day and I walk through each moment with you, flowing through
you, yes, but also caring for you, alerting you to danger, and
ensuring that your soul benefits from each challenge, each joy, each
cross. You are not alone. I will not allow anything for you that I
will not use for your ultimate holiness. Walk in joy because as an
apostle serving in this troubled world, you are entitled to every
heavenly protection. My gratitude to you for your friendship is not
something you can measure in earthly terms. You must trust Me that
my gratitude will astound you. I care for your loved ones, dear
apostles. I hear your prayers and I will use a measure of my
gratitude to you for the benefit of all of your intentions for other
souls. There is no reason, whatever your circumstances, to lose your
joy."

"Today I cry out to young people. Young souls
are the cherished jewels in the Kingdom of God on earth. The
formation of these souls must be treated with reverence. Each
individual in the Kingdom bears a responsibility to young souls,
even if it is simply through setting an example of Christian living.
Dear children of God, you are accountable for the impact of your
actions and each sin carries an impact, however unnoticeable. Search
your life and you will discover where I am asking you to assist
young people. Many children live in families lacking a parent.
Perhaps I am asking you to share your Christianity with those
children in order to be a role model. Dear souls, in most cases,
young people learn how to be adults by watching others. So your
life, the model of your living out your walk with Me, has impact.
Your life can be something which a child can measure sin against.
Think of a holy person you knew while you were growing up. Now
remember back to a time when you saw others committing acts that
were unholy. Did you not recognize that these acts would not be
acceptable to this holy person? Sometimes it is simply speech. There
are certain people near whom you will be careful about what you say.
I am asking you to become one of those people. I want others to take
note of your presence and know that Jesus should not be insulted. I
want others to understand that your Church should not be unjustly
vilified in your presence. In short, I want others to know that when
you are present, I am present. They will then use you as the
standard against which they measure their actions. You must stand
for Me. I am asking each of you to sit in silence and consider how I
am asking you to assist My young people in the world. Be assured of
My great gratitude in this matter. Through this mission of mercy and
love I wish to call all young people back to My heart. Will you help
Me?"
June 1, 2005
"My brothers and sisters, how I love you. How
eager I am that you use the graces available to you. When a soul
understands this mission and begins to ask for graces for others,
heaven is joyful. In the same way, those on earth who are interceded
for begin to benefit and to change. Graces surround them. Their soul
becomes alert because there is hope. Dear ones, help Me. I want
every soul to return to Me. I am waiting for each soul to become
open so that My graces can flood that soul. Many of you have seen
this and you understand. For those of you who have not seen this
happen, please ask Me for graces for a soul who is far from Me.
Continue asking Me. Ask Me for graces for strangers. I will come to
them in a special way. I will observe them closely, as only I can,
given My knowledge of them, and I will find the perfect moment.
While I wait for this moment, I will be allowing them to benefit
from your prayers and wishes by sending moments of grace and people
of grace into their lives. Think, My friends. Did I not do this for
you at some time in your life? Did I not pursue you if you were far
away? If you were never far away, perhaps I encouraged you when you
felt abandoned or afraid. I have graces for each soul in darkness.
Please work for Me now and you will see souls returning. All is
well, My dear friends. You are children of heaven and as children of
heaven; you have nothing to fear. There is only good possible for
you. The earth is a temporary residence. Your home is in heaven. So
when you come here, you will have come home. Be joyful servants of
your Returning King and you will see great changes in your
world."
May 1, 2005
"Be at peace, dear children of heaven. There is
no reason for anything but a peaceful countenance. I am working in
your soul if you are allowing Me to do so and you will come closer
and closer to Me. You see that I am calling you to do this. I want
you to behave like Me and even to think like Me. You will be gentle
and kind to those you meet in your day and they will then consider
what it is that makes you different. And there is a contrast between
those following Me, and those following the world. The closer you
come to Me, the greater the contrast. I would like to see a
multitude of souls drawing closer to Me. You can help with this
project because you represent Me. I am calling everyone and I use
each of you to do this. So be My Voice in your world and cry out to
your brothers and sisters. Tell them of My love for them and tell
them of My wish to draw them closer to Me. If you allow Me to work
through you, I will do so. If you practice loving all souls and
being merciful to all souls, soon you will be speaking My name to
them. You understand that if you are not merciful and kind, it will
not matter what you say because souls will be repelled. It is only
through your love, inspired by Me, that they are moved. So be gentle
as I am gentle and souls will be drawn back into the safe pasture of
My Sacred Heart."

"My dear brothers and sisters, do not be
afraid. I have prepared your souls for change. If a teacher prepares
a student for an exam, the student should then anticipate the exam
with peace, understanding that all that is necessary is steady
labor. My brothers and sisters in the world are in a similar
position. I have explained through many sources that there are
changes coming in the world. I have made it clear that I am
overseeing each detail. Each of you, My beloved ones, have a role to
play in the time of transition. Look ahead with great peace and
courage and you will serve honorably. If the world responds with
excitement or distress, you respond with a calm that is noticeable.
In everything, trust Me. Begin today. Regardless of what occurs in
your life, respond peacefully, saying often, 'Jesus, I trust in
you.' I have prepared an army of peaceful soldiers to respond to the
changes in this troubled world. You will stand out, My friends. You
will spread My peace to every corner. Be joyful as your Jesus is
joyful for truly, the darkness is lifting."

"My children are distracted in this time. I am
sending great peace upon those who allow Me into their souls, and I
wish to be present in every soul. Do you want My heavenly peace? Do
you wish to experience a foretaste of heaven? Dear souls, this is
available to you if you ask Me. This is not something you can buy.
It is not something that the world creates. It is a state of union
with Me. It is the experience of being part of the family of God.
Each of you belongs to this family, but some of our brothers and
sisters have chosen to move away from Me. This results in isolation
and sadness. Confusion soon creeps into the life lived away from God
and the soul then seeks to clarify their existence by searching
through the worldly balms offered by the enemy. Alas, none of these
balms will satisfy a child of heaven because there is only one true
balm for the soul. It is I, Jesus Christ. I am the balm that will
heal. I am the balm that will clarify and soothe. I will come to any
soul who seeks Me and bring with Me the heavenly peace that cannot
be bought. Little children of the world, call out to Me and I will
come to you. Confusion is not from Me. Sadness and despair are not
from Me. Peace and serenity are from Me. Ask Me to bring these
things to you and I will do so."
February 1, 2005
"I wish to tell the world of My love. Dearest
children of God, you will be welcomed in heaven. You have a family
here who prepares for your arrival. Each soul on earth is steadily
making progress in their earthly journey in that you are steadily
approaching the end of your life, even if you will live to a very
old age. If we begin with that thought, My next thought will make
even more sense to you: I wish you to consider what it is you will
bring to Me when I come for you. Will you bring Me kindness to
others? Will you bring Me service to your family? Will you bring Me
a duty fulfilled in obedience and dignity? You see, little souls, I
will not ask you for your material possessions because they will
have no value here, unless you use these possessions to help others.
Only then can material possessions acquire heavenly value. I have
placed you in the world to serve. I am with you in each day but you
must also be with Me. Dearest children, ask Me for guidance and I
will tell you how I wish you to serve."
January 1, 2005 - Jesus
"Dear Children of the world, I will never leave
you. Please consider Me the very best of Fathers. Does a loving
father know when his child's heart is grieving? Of course he does.
If your heart is grieving, you must come to Me. I will heal your
hurts and restore your heart to you. I will give you courage and
strength so that you can proceed with your earthly journey. I am
asking you today, though, to proceed differently. Ask Me to be
united to you. Ask Me to remain with you through every moment. I
want to do that for you. In this way, you will come to walk on the
path that I, Jesus Christ, have marked out for you. Dearest children
of the world, please walk with Me. I need your help. I, the Almighty
God, ask you now to walk with Me. There are many souls crying out to
Me in pain. You must bring Me to them. Please, My dear ones, bring
Me to them."
December 1, 2004 - Jesus
"I send graces down upon your world. Indeed, at
this time, I begin to flood the world with heavenly graces that will
heal souls and convert hearts. Dear children of the one true God,
your Saviour prepares to return. I want each one of you to welcome
My return to the world. In order to do that, you must quiet your
heart and accept the gift of My divine grace. I hold the greatest
acceptance and forgiveness for you all. My heart bursts with the
love I have for you all. And I am returning to reclaim you all.
Children of heaven, feel My joy. The time of desolation for souls is
at end. I am returning."
