Q1-Dad, I want to live according to your divine will. I want my will to be merged into yours; to have my will vanish before my eyes. I want to make the decision to always do your will and to not think of me and my will at all. This is a decision I am making today, but I need your grace to see it through. I can’t do this on my own. Can you help me form this new way of living so that your will is what I want to do? Help me know your will and then help me to act on it.
*** Keep reading the book on St. Lucia that I showed you and you will gain strength to make this decision in a more informed manner. You will see how good it would be for you if you decide to really and truly give your will over to me. You will get there in time, but it will take much determination and grace. You will have all you need to make the right decisions when the opportunities show up in your daily life. When you hear the still small voice, when you don’t want to follow it- that is your learning opportunity. You will see that my will for you is always with many surprises and good blessings to follow. I always give back more than I take. If you give me an hour, I will return 4 back to you. I am a generous Father. Have faith that I will work this transfer of wills. It will happen in due time. Keep trying. Don’t be too hard on yourself when you fall… when you choose your will over mine. I love you no matter what happens, and I will pick you up when you fall.
Q2- Jesus, your blessed and sacred heart is before me. I want to do something for you to thank you and to be with you closer than before. What can I do that would make any difference for you, no matter how insignificant it may be. What can I do for you?
*** What you can do for me is never give up hope. Keep your faith strong. Faith can move mountains. I know it looks like this is all crazy talk. I know you have your doubts and I know you wonder if all this is for nothing. I know how deeply that saddens you. That only means that you must continue to fight the good fight. Keep trying each day to follow the will of God and you will get to where you need to be. So, never give up hope. We have plans more amazing in store for you, than you could ever imagine. Remind yourself of all that we have told you. Read some past board meetings and you will soon see that all this is not just a fantasy never to occur. This is reality and it will all come to pass… all this and even more. You are in the family business; you will help us save souls. That made you smile. Yes, you will fulfill your life purpose. You were made for a time such as this.
Q3– Love, when you want me to hear God speaking to me, I know you have your ways. I know you will make sure I hear if it is very important. Sometimes I hear so clearly. But it’s when you are soft and maybe only an inspiration without words… I want to hear in those times, too. Help me slow down so I can hear you. And help me to form my will to yours. How do I best do this?
*** Prayer and fasting will help instill this new way of living. Take the upcoming week and focus on slowing down, praying without ceasing, and only eat a little and do this only when your stomach growls. When you approach the upcoming week in this prayerful manner, you will be able to grow in learning to hear our will for you in the moment. It is good to ask for the grace to form your will to ours. To put to death your own will for a better way… God’s way. Don’t be alarmed when you fail. Only pick yourself back up.
Q4- Mom, please help me this week to learn this slower and more intentional way of life. I will fast/wait on God’s lead which in eating would be a growl -before eating and I pray you will help me change into a more focused and pliable soul for doing the will of God as I can best determine. Help me know what to do and please help me to slow down.
*** Giving you will even in small ways over to the Father, such as waiting on God’s lead when to eat, will train you to look to see what the Father is asking you to do. Looking to God for all things is what the goal is. Do only what the Father is asking you to do. You have come a long way so far. The rest of this journey will not be as painful and it will be a treasure in heaven. Keep reading the book on Saint Lucia. Divine Will is truly the best way to live… living in divine will- it will take you places you never dreamt of. It will be a glorious life in His will. You will love it! It will be difficult, for sure, but in the end, you will not regret one minute of it. Godspeed, Mar.
