‘My dear Lord, hold me within your arms of mercy as I only desire to be with you and need the wisdom of your understanding at this moment to guide me, to strengthen me and to grant me the courage of hope each day to walk this path.’

“My dear child,” as Jesus begins to speak, a star of golden light appears in the sky. It is large, like the sun, but it is not the sun. It is a star of great hope for humanity.

‘Oh, my dear Lord, guide me in rejoicing in you in all things. Fill me with your Spirit, of this star of hope and faith.’

Jesus says, “Yes, my dear child, it burns brilliantly for all souls who desire to return to my arms of love each day seeking me as their Lord and Savior of the Holy Cross. It is good that you have come to me, that I may raise you up this morning and give you the strength to trust in me in all things, releasing all to my heart and to walk your path with hope.

My dear child, do all things in the beauty of my love. Do all things with joy and trust in me. You must be like Mary at my feet so that I may fulfill the work for you by offering all things to my heart.”

‘Yes, my dear Lord, I offer to you all of my heart, my thoughts, my needs, the resolutions to my work this day, all to the Holy Cross of your love. And I now pray for my country in front of the flags that fly before me on the seashore that we may be united, that we may stand in faith, that you may guide our leaders and that we may know that you are God above all things, and in God we trust.’
