2nd January 2012 (Morning Prayer)
My dear little one,
Stay close to Me in all you do to further the Kingdom of God. Do not be tempted to take your own path but learn to pray and discern the holy Will of God. Choose the narrow, more difficult path of selflessness not the wide, easy path of self that the world encourages you to take. Die to self and you will receive graces to sustain you in these difficult moments. Let Me turn your weaknesses into strengths, your mourning into dancing, your fear into everlasting joy. Look to Scripture to help you in the choices you make. Read again Matthew 25: 1-13. Do not waste a moment of this time of preparation you have been given. Fill your lamp with the oil of salvation – the oil of faithfulness – the oil of selflessness – the oil of humility – the oil of obedience – the oil of holy love – for this is the oil you need to enter the banquet hall of the Lord your God. The wise bridesmaids had flasks of oil as well as their lamps – they had made adequate preparation. Do not be like the unwise bridesmaids who were not prepared and were relying on others to give them the help they needed. You must take responsibility for your own actions. Do not want others to prepare the way for you. It is time for you to clean the interior of your own cup. Make the changes now – do not wait a moment longer. The harvest is plentiful but the labourers are few. Make the preparations needed in readiness for the time of harvest will come like a thief in the night. The wheat must be sorted from the chaff. Read also Matthew 3: 11-12. Prepare a worthy dwelling place for your Lord and God.
31st December 2011 (Morning Prayer)
My dear little one,
Do not let the daily trials you face overwhelm you. Walk with your Lord and God moment by moment. Do not run ahead of Me but walk in the shadow of your Good Shepherd. Receive the love of the Father through Me His Son by the grace of the Holy Spirit. Love is My way. Be humble and gentle of heart. Do not hold unto grudges when you feel hurt and disappointed with how you are treated. Look within and find My peace and joy to sustain you in your times of adversity. I have not abandoned you in your hour of need. I patiently wait for you to call out to your Lord and God. The Lord your God hears the cries of the poor. Be still and know that I am your Lord and God. Do not become distracted by the disruptions and disharmony that satan uses to cause you to be confused. Keep your eyes fixed on Me and I will show you the way to life eternal. Sing joyful songs in praise and worship when you experience these moments of difficulty, for joyful songs will lift your spirits. Trust in Me and the love I have for you. Trust in God’s plan of hope for you and for all. The old must die away first and then My new purified Bride will rise up to live a new life of holy love. Do not be afraid to remove the clutter both internally and externally. Make preparations now. Use the time you have been given wisely. Do not waste a moment. Prepare a worthy dwelling place for your Lord and King.
