“My dear child, come to me in my mercy at this moment.”

I am now having a vision of our Lord who is appearing before me. His hands are extended from his midsection with open arms to embrace me in his love.

‘O my Lord, how I need you so. Unite your heart to my heart and give me the strength and the hope this day to fulfill your will. Not my will be done, Lord, but your will for your glory, and that I may receive you within my heart each day.

Guide me, O Lord, in your mercy and send your holy angels to surround and lead me to go before me. Especially Saint Michael the Archangel, I call upon you now, Gabriel and Raphael to protect me from evil, to assist me in spreading the word and to restore my house each day.

Yes, guide me in the joy of the mercy of your love this day. Lead me with great hope to fulfill all I can in being who you created me to be for the love of others. I love you, my Lord. I love you. Take me as you desire.’

“My son, come to me and let me embrace you now.”

I do so within the arms of Jesus, as I can feel his heart press against my heart. The smell of his skin, the purity of his grace, is the scent of heaven, his hair and the softness of his robe.

‘O my Lord, keep me within your arms for all eternity. And may I go this day with joy and great hope, as being in your presence gives me.

Yes, may I walk in your footsteps of love.’

“I love you, my son.”

‘I love you, my Lord.’

He now takes my hand and we begin to walk together.
