March 7, 2020 – Selfishness stands in the way of grace

"The self-centered soul has more trouble abandoning himself to Me than does the soul who first abandons his own needs and desires for the sake of others. Always make the effort to place others needs ahead of your own"

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

Holy Love - Heart of God the Father“The self-centered soul has more trouble abandoning himself to Me than does the soul who first abandons his own needs and desires for the sake of others. Always make the effort to place others needs ahead of your own. This is especially true in regards to sharing your time. Sometimes this is all you can give to another but if given with love, it is the most I ask of you.”

“Selfishness stands in the way of grace. Very often the grace that eludes a selfish soul is the choice to pray for others. Sometimes the merit the soul would receive for charitable prayer is mitigated if he tells others about it. Let all your charitable actions – thought, word or deed – be between you and Me whenever possible.”

“I love and honor the self-giving soul. I return his love in many ways.”

Read James 2:8+

If you really fulfil the royal law, according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself”, you do well.

Read 1 Corinthians 13:4-7+

Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
