“The soul cannot surrender to My Divine Will unless he first lives in Holy Love. The more perfect his surrender to Holy Love, the deeper his response to My Call to surrender to My Divine Will. My Will for each soul is always what is best for him. Every cross becomes a spiritual strength when it is accepted in Holy Love.”

“My Divine Will and Holy Love are one. Acceptance of the cross in whatever form it takes is the path to sanctification. Satan’s tools which he uses to keep the soul from accepting his crosses are discouragement, fear and distaste for any suffering. The soul can only love Me as deeply as he knows Me.”

“Use the present moment wisely in ways you can know Me better. Pray your rosary,* read Scripture, remove from your life all distractions. I will draw you deeper into My Heart through your efforts.”
