We really know very little — we get up
and may think we know what we are doing
but know little
On Saturday morning, early I wrote about how
a dark storm can go on inside of us when satan
attacks — it was in Saturday's message.
On the 4th, a storm
came in Kansas and it was a tornado and
tore out a town.
I wrote about windows of the two Hearts —
like used to be in churches and that afternoon
a man was wondering what to put on his
windows in church and I showed him the
writing.
Next was Sunday in Florida and Sunday
night a huge storm came up and
eroded the beaches — all this before
I left Florida.
One minute things are okay, the
next after a storm — things are not okay.
Satan is like a storm — he can come to
a calm house, whether a person, a school,
a church and try to case havoc.
Satan comes to storm the house.
He can try to blow up old emotions — just
like the storm blowing up old sand on the
beach. You can clean your windows and if
a big storm comes up they are soon a mess —
no matter how hard you cleaned and polished
them.
I remember it was September 28, 2004 and my
daughter and I went to a Key in Florida for a
little two day trip — while we were there a
hurricane came, the hotel got full of water — there
was no electricity and the food was rationed —
my daughter and I got 1/2 cup of coffee. Later we
had to flee in the hurricane to another hotel —
my credit cards blew out of my wallet and the
cars in the parking lot were covered like
snow men with tons of sand — they were
covered deep.
The next day her child was playing on a calm
beach — with little sand scoopers and
a sand pail, September 29, 2004.
Satan comes and he presses down on
an individual tempting them to give in —
like a storm coming and then everything
is blown — covered — what was orderly
becomes a mess —
Satan works in one person's thoughts —
and another person's - that can be far
away — timing is important to satan — to
have a series of events and a bang at the
same time — He is a great trickster —
calls can come in at the same time and because
of impatience, anger, disobedience we just
give into this mess —
A person can disobey and give into satan's
confusion.
Satan works in lies
Satan works in 1/2 truths.
Satan wants you to hide things you
should bring out in the open —
or tell someone as a good steward
Satan works in trying to usurp power
from a delegated structure
People seek dominance for dominance
sake and sacrifice obedience,
love, stewardship
Satan tries to press on a person to act
in desolation — which is a real
mess to undue, but satan moves
ahead when one does this —
Satan is a fooler — he tries to grip someone's
emotions and the person gives in causing
discord and disharmony
and the person in charge is standing
there saying, why didn't you just help
me like a good steward —
like Mary says
"Be good"
Why weren't you just good
Satan can work more easily with person
causing discord, disobedience,
they make a big mess —
then try to cover it up and look
perfect — rather than honestly
say "they are sorry" and
take responsibility to rectify the wrong
they did so it can be corrected —
they keep it a secret and then make
matters unable to be corrected —
Satan, wants a person to act in discord,
secrets —
weaving a web to catch the just
man —
Like a big spider — satan is ready to
weave a big web to catch his
prey and he presses on people
appealing to their wounded human
nature
jealousy, pride, envy, etc. —
A person who is genuinely working to be
holy takes responsibility for their actions because
although they made a mistake, they love
their company, church, school, family
etc. and want the best
Another person can be selfish and
cover up — to make themselves look
perfect — hurting the church, school
family more —
This is an advanced stage of lying
to oneself rather than telling the truth —
this masks the truth and teaches
someone to lie to protect their own
selfish perfection — lying keeps the
truth buried — lying and lying — how can
a person be happy when living in such untruth —
First to thine own self be true
Lying blocks growth in
the spiritual life
The devil's work is
hidden —
He works in darkness
Cling to Me
May 13, 1993
Jesus speaks: My dear child, if you stay close to Me, then I live in you and you live in Me. I am He Who created you and I love you with such an intensity that you will never know. My words are your truth. You must abide in My heart in all things. There is no room for doubt. My ways are steadfast, direct, and without error.
You must stay rooted in Me to ward off the power of the evil one. His grip is paralyzing and crippling. His power is stronger every day.
When you live in Me, I am in your heart and he has no power over Me. I am your God. I am your true lover. I want to protect you. I want to guard you from this force. Stay rooted firmly in Me and he will have no power.
I am He Who comforts you. My hand is upon you. Hold tight to Me, My child. My eyes are fixed right on you. You are My most precious child. I love you as no other can. My arms are about you. My tenderness surrounds you. My love is in your heart. You go not alone. I walk with you.
I share every aspect of your life with you. Cling to Me, feel My presence. It is warm and secure within your chest. There is no room for fear, for I cast out fear and bring you comfort and joy.

John 14: 6
Jesus said:
I am the Way; I am Truth and Life.
1 Corinthians 13: 1-13
Though I command languages both human and angelic—if I speak without love, I am no more than a gong booming or a cymbal clashing. And though I have the power of prophecy, to penetrate all mysteries and knowledge, and though I have all the faith necessary to move mountains—if I am without love, I am nothing. Though I should give away to the poor all that I possess, and even give up my body to be burned—if I am without love, it will do me no good whatever.
Love is always patient and kind; love is never jealous; love is not boastful or conceited, it is never rude and never seeks its own advantage, it does not take offence or store up grievances. Love does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but finds its joy in the truth. It is always ready to make allowances, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes.
Love never comes to an end. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if tongues, they will fall silent; and if knowledge, it will be done away with. For we know only imperfectly, and we prophesy imperfectly; but once perfection comes, all imperfect things will be done away with. When I was a child, I used to talk like a child, and see things as a child does, and think like a child; but now that I have become an adult, I have finished with all childish ways. Now we see only reflections in a mirror, mere riddles, but then we shall be seeing face to face. Now I can know only imperfectly; but then I shall know just as fully as I am myself known.
As it is, these remain: faith, hope and love, the three of them; and the greatest of them is love.
Revelation 21: 1-8
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; the first heaven and the first earth had disappeared now, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride dressed for her husband. Then I heard a loud voice call from the throne, 'Look, here God lives among human beings. He will make his home among them; they will be his people, and he will be their God, God-with-them. He will wipe away all tears from their eyes; there will be no more death, and no more mourning or sadness or pain. The world of the past has gone.'
Then the One sitting on the throne spoke. 'Look, I am making the whole of creation new. Write this, "What I am saying is trustworthy and will come true."' Then he said to me, 'It has already happened. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give water from the well of life free to anybody who is thirsty; anyone who proves victorious will inherit these things; and I will be his God and he will be my son. But the legacy for cowards, for those who break their word, or worship obscenities, for murderers and the sexually immoral, and for sorcerers, worshippers of false gods or any other sort of liars, is the second death in the burning lake of sulphur.'
From Blue Book III
Turn Your Thoughts to Love
April 30, 1994 After Mass
R. I felt His presence, saw Him plainly in my heart, wearing a white tunic, standing by the tabernacle. He was truly present. I saw His beautiful, brown hair and gentle face. He waits for you, little ones. He is waiting for you to come and share yourself with Him, to just sit and be with Him Who loves you dearly and Whom you love. Feel the warmth in your chest, for He, the Son of God, truly stands here waiting for you. He is present. See Him waiting for you.
Jesus: Do you love Me as I have loved you? Are you willing to lay down your life for Me? Would you give your life rather than deny Me or put anything before Me? I call you to holiness. I call you to follow Me, the Master. I loved you to My death. Do you love Me first, that you would die for love of Me? Do you love your brothers as I have loved you? Would you die for your brothers because I ask you to love them this way?
You do not know how to love. I tell you, but you do not listen because you do not want to love as I have loved you. Loving as I have loved is not easy. It is simple but difficult. I love you this way this day. Love, My children. Love is the answer. Love is nothing as the world preaches. Look at Me dying on the cross. I teach you how to love. I held not back one thing for love of you.
Do you want to love? Study Me and My Passion. Carry the crucifix by your side. Look at Me. I teach you how to love.
You preach My love in your very being. Are you preaching My giving love to all your brothers? I am Love. Follow My way. Love as I showed you how to love.
I am Jesus. Love, love, love. Do not have unloving thoughts. Take your thoughts and turn them to love, love of God, love of one another. I love you, My dear ones. I love you. I remain in the tabernacle. Come and be with Me, My ardently loved ones.
I never ever leave your side. Let go, little one. You are on a pilgrimage in My world and I am the leader. I care for you with such love. You have no fears. I never leave you unattended. I guard you. I watch you. I live in you and you carry My love to this world. Say the Prayer for Union with Me.
Surrender to Me. The devil will really work on you in your tiredness and in your efforts now to spread your experiences there. I go with you. My Lady is by your side. You are being led and watched by God-Father, Son, Holy Spirit-and the Blessed Mother, angels and saints. Fear not, child, this is a fact. You must trust and have faith in the God Who loves you. I am your God. I love you, My little baby. Let Me care for you with such love.

God calls us to holiness
Being loving
Being pure
Being likened to Him
A man kept sticking rags in
a bag that was ripped a
little — soon it split and
help nothing
We cannot lie to ourselves —
and those we are under to hide
our sins
