Pope Saint John Paul II is now appearing before me. He is standing in the court of St. Peter’s. He is standing in the joy of God’s loving mercy for God’s children and the Holy Church. He is dressed in white in his papal gown and pointing to a Holy Cross nearly midway in height to that of St. Peter’s Basilica. The Cross is made of gold.

He is pointing diligently that we may recognize the power of our Lord’s Passion on the Cross. For the Cross is love and love is the Cross that we accept the eternal and transforming power of God’s mercy through his death on the Holy Cross that shall save our souls, that will save the unity of the body of the Holy Church.

Because God unites, God who is love unites. And the power of his mercy is hope that we are more than conquerors in Christ. What he fulfills and desires according to the light, no darkness can destroy, because nothing could ever separate us from the love of God.

He will have his final victory through the power of the Holy Cross that shall rise through the darkness to bring the joy of only the light.

May God’s mercy sustain us, purify us and forgive us our sins and the sins of the whole world.

Pope Saint John Paul II now says, “Peace, peace, peace and joy shall be fulfilled through the power and victory of prayer for those who choose he who is the resurrection and the life over all darkness and sin, he who is our Lord and our Savior, our Good Shepherd and Jesus of love. May it be done to us according to God’s will.”
