9th February 2009 (Night Prayer)
My dear children,
You are living in difficult times. Do not become despondent and fall into a state of despair. Strengthen the gift of faith you have received. Nurture your faith by your quiet moments spent in stillness and prayer with your Lord and God. You must plant the seed of faith in deep, rich soil and water it well. Unless you nourish your faith it will not last. It is most important for you to take time to spend in quietness with the Lord. Look to the Scripture passage1 Kings 19:13 once more. Elijah discovered that God was found in the gentle breeze. Many look for the power of God in mighty events and overlook the simple ways of the Lord. God your loving Father is a God of gentleness and compassion. He patiently waits for His children to respond to His call to live a life of righteous love. Go back to a life of simplicity. Humbly serve your Lord and God with every fibre of your being. Open your ears my children and listen to the gentle prompting given to you by the Father through His Son Jesus by the Holy Spirit. Be still in the presence of the Lord. Open your eyes to the awesome presence of your Lord and God Emmanuel – God with us. Take time to contemplate the new Covenant of love given to you as a gift from your Heavenly Father through His Son Jesus. Just as the Apostles were told to go forth to the ends of the earth and spread the good news you too are called forth as a disciple of holy love. Listen to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Open your heart to the Lord and receive the love of God into your heart and then let this love flow out to many. I ask you to be an instrument of God’s love to all who are in desperate need. Read Ezekiel 36: 25-28.
