My dear children,
I call you my children as indeed you are the precious gifts placed into my loving hands by My Divine Son. Come to me, little ones ---- speak to me ---- I am here and desire that intimate relationship a mother has with her children. Tell me of your joys that I may smile with you as together we will share in the beauty of God's goodness. Come to me with your problems and heartaches and together we will find solutions to problems and my gentle spirit will soothe your heartache.
Learn my children, to let go of that over which you have no control. Listen closely to the whisper of love and hope which we instill in your soul as it cries out in times of despair. We are not worlds apart, little ones, but only a touch away . Trust and believe, my children, as graces are being poured out as never before ---- open your hearts and receive your allotted share. No one is turned away in this time of great mercy.
I urge you to realize the greatness of this time of mercy. Pray, pray, pray. The great time of darkness is eminent, but the light of faith and hope will not be diminished from the hearts of my faithful remnant.
Peace and love, my children.
