This is nectar to my soul February 1, 2012 Monthly Message On the first of every month, our Lord gives Anne a new message about His call to service. February 1, 2012 Jesus Dear apostles, your faith makes you beautiful. I am watching you as you receive graces from heaven. Your heart is transformed, little by little, and your service to Me is purified and becoming more unblemished by self interest. Your life is changing in many ways. Perhaps you are leaving one type of service for another or completing a task that has held your attention for a long time. Perhaps you are laying down a heavy cross of suffering and being released from it so that you can serve more freely in another way. Perhaps, dear apostle, you are awaiting your next heavenly assignment and you are eager to move on to it. Or you are simply serving faithfully as best you can in the work that is yours each day. Regardless, you believe, and you are trying to live that belief. This makes you beautiful to Me. Yes, faithfulness to Me consoles the world. The little pocket of faithfulness you contribute is like a sign that directs the eyes of others to the next life. Others look at you and understand that not everyone lives for this life. They understand that even if you are wrong about eternity, hope in eternity exists. My friends, you do not realize the value of that hope for someone in a moment when all hope seems lost. Poor humanity. We must bring hope to the world through our committed service to the Father. And if you find your hope challenged, then you must explain to Me the source of your pain. Come to Me in the silence of your heart and I will listen to your grief. I will console you. I will show you that the power of heaven can heal the gravest hurts and the cruelest sufferings. I will restore you. Please believe Me. It is in the interest of all of humanity that you possess the hope needed for others. Yes, you are beautiful to Me, dear apostles. You are beautiful. Direction for Our Times
His messages through Ann are always so powerful and uplifting. This one I found helped me focus on my daily tasks. Thanks for sharing, Kath
I hope Ann is well, I hear she suffers a lot. I hope to meet her one day, but I understand she is very private...but you never know!! :wink:
Quite a different tone from the message given a day later in Medjugorje. Different audience, perhaps? Better apostles? Which group am I in, I wonder? Or are all of us in? Finally I decided to tackle catching up with the forum. I have over 40 threads to go through! A huge undertaking. So I put it off several days. Whew.
