JESUS: My dear child, it is through my love that you shall be consumed with hope to shine in hope for others at the foot of my Cross. I desire that you open your heart in prayer to receive me in love.

GREGORY: Jesus, may my heart be open.

Satan will do everything possible to discourage you. Seek to remain open in hope, the hope that I can only give. He will attempt everything possible to bring despair into your heart. I desire that you write about his because his tactics must not remain unnoticed by those of faith.

I am calling all souls to renounce the darkness in their lives. Satan is the source of all evil and my children are his prey as in the parable of the lost sheep, which is why I, the good and eternal shepherd, must guard my children and seek to call them back to the sheepfold.

Gregory, do you want to receive me in your garden?

GREGORY: Yes, I would like to sit still with you in the silence of the morning air.

JESUS: Then go, I will be waiting.

GREGORY: It is morning and the half-moon has not yet disappeared into the dawn. The scent of the air is sweet and peaceful. I can hear roosters crowing in the distant yards which remind me of the early mornings of my childhood.

I am thankful to our Lord for the memories of light that filled my life with joy. Those that are so vivid in my heart, unite me in the present day with the heart of Jesus. I desire and pray to live in truth, the truth that allows me to see more clearly each day that I am in some way blind and need the light of Jesus to guide me.

JESUS: I desire that you hold nothing back from my heart and the hearts of my children. Through your heart of faith, they will be given my heart.

GREGORY: May the Holy Spirit fill and guide me in truth that I may share my heart more openly with those in need for at this moment, I know not what to say. I feel unable to express what I feel and since Jesus once told me that we should not allow our faith to be founded on our emotions, I will begin to speak from my heart of love for love is everything.

I love you, my Lord. I love you and in the night I am carried within your arms to paradise in love.

Thank you for everything that you have given me. Praise you for the gift of your love and may its sweetness lead me to shine in paradise for others one day.

JESUS: Let go, Gregory, you are not yet speaking as you desire. You fear that you will be judged, but this is what Satan wants. He wants you to live in fear. Speak from your heart of all that you desire and all that you feel so that I may uplift you.

GREGORY: So often we live without truly living because we become dead in faith. We lose the hope that allows us to rise daily to become who we truly are- children of the light created in the image of God, our Father, to proclaim the light of truth to those around us.

I have been struggling these past weeks to speak from my heart in expressing what I really feel and what I really want from my faith which has been overshadowed by many thoughts: thoughts of life on this earth, the sadness that I feel because of this war, the destruction of nature. Our world is in an unbalance in need of love for we have forgotten how to love.

How do we continue without love? And, O my Love, how sad you must be. How sad for us who are your children. Those who are lost in despair without you to save them because they deny your heart of love.

What are we if we do not have you, if we do not exist in love? Why do we disgrace the temples of our souls? Where is the dignity and respect of love?
