Jesus
said to them, " Oh how
foolish you are and slow of
heart to believe all that
the prophets have declared!
Was it not necessary that
the Messiah should suffer
these things and then enter
his glory ?"
Luke24:25-6
Let none of My followers
, the Father's committed
children, ever let the glory
of My Resurrection obscure
the pain and cost and triumph
of My suffering. It is an
indelible mark of My Person,
of My experience in and
through time, and of My
achievement for humanity,
presented to the Father
for all times and places
and people. Let the reality
of it sink into the deepest
understanding of all My
followers for it is the
clue to the understanding
of all pain and vicarious
suffering in My world.
And My followers and My
Church and My witnesses
in My Church must also perpetually
bear the marks of the world's
suffering , redeemed and
sanctified in Me through
the power of Our Holy Spirit
so that all who seek the
Father's presence and His
will may find it and thus
be incorporated into His
Kingdom of love.
And from their place in
the Kingdom of the Father
I am able to reach out,
through them, to those who
seek the Kingdom but cannot
find the way. Through the
hearts and minds of My loving
children, committed to the
Father's Kingdom, I speak
and witness and minister.
And the greatest strength
is My suffering , the marks
of my passion the means
of bringing countless numbers
to the Father's Presence.
So grasp the significance
of the marks of My passion
and let them witness to
My suffering world.
