28th November 2008 (Stations of the Cross – Jesus falls the first time)
My children,
You too may fall under the strain of the cross you carry. I ask you to never stay down on the ground. Pray and ask for the endurance you need to persevere through your most difficult moments. Do not try and do your spiritual journey alone. Unite your trials and sufferings to my suffering as I climbed the hill of Calvary. You will be given the grace to endure the pain if you ask for My help. Grace is a precious gift given by God to help you climb the holy mountain of the Lord. Many of God’s children remain self sufficient and have neglected to recognize or thank God for this gift they have received through their baptism. Do not try and walk the path of holiness when you are spiritually empty. Receive the sanctifying grace you need through reception of the Sacraments and through your loving actions to those in need. Do not be arrogant and try and God’s work by your own means. Look to my Mother and her journey of trust. She was the purest of all – full of grace. She humbly submitted her life to God’s plan. Her journey was difficult but her trust in God was given through her total abandonment to His Will. I ask you my children to commit totally your body, mind and soul to God’s Will. Do not want earthly rewards and consolations but instead wait and you will receive spiritual consolations to sustain you for the long distance. Trust more fully, love more selflessly and learn to walk moment by moment with Me your Lord and Saviour so that you can receive the fullness of God’s love through the precious gift of sanctifying grace by the Holy Spirit. You must be strong in your faith, constant in hope and be full of love as you strive towards your Heavenly goal – life eternal.
