“Children, today, as the New Year is beginning, empty your hearts of all unforgiveness, all self-ambition and all that is untrue. Begin anew to structure your spirituality in Holy Love. Do not seek man’s approval over and above My approval. Let your every priority be to please Me first and foremost. Change anything in your life which opposes this goal. See everything as it relates to pleasing Me. Center your hearts on this goal.”

“This is the way to die to self and all materialism and to work only towards your own salvation by pleasing Me. As you try to accomplish this goal, your prayers will be more powerful, your hearts will be more at peace. The earthly priorities you held precious in your hearts will gradually take on less importance. You will more clearly see the direction your soul is following in Truth.”
