On the first of every month, Our Lord gives Anne a new message about His call to service. February 1, 2008 Jesus 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.
What a beautiful message, how consoling!! I take it from this that Ann must have had inner dbts about the path she was walking and this was heaven's response!!! I would really like to meet or see this lady sometime. :shock:
When I read this month's message I found it was exactly what I needed to hear as doubts had started to knit their way into my mind. I was needing and asking for something to hold on to and was so blessed when I read this. Hope it's the same for all. Lee
What beautiful encouragement! Lee, These words hold a special place in my heart as our family has accomplished the mission the Lord moved us up to the snowbelt to accomplish. Geralyn's Dad and Mom were so much a blessing for us, but I'm sure living next door to them provided both of them with a certain sense of security in their last years. Onward and upward! In the Hearts of Jesus and Mary!
Terry, this message must have been especially weighty for you then. I can see your experienced woven through the entire message. What a blessing you must have received doing what you were asked to do and being who you were supposed to be. Obedience, while being an honor and a privilege, is so very difficult at times. But the joy that comes from it can't be measured. Lee
