(Visual): I can see everything. It's early morning ... the sun is just beginning tocome up above the hills in the background. It's quiet........... I can hear the birdssinging in the trees......... it appears just to be an ordinary morning.It's a town now............. I think it's a town with very high walls of stone..... stone
paved streets and pathways. I can hear the carts as they are being pushed along the stones. It looks like vendors are setting up for their sales for the day. Thereare stands of fruits and vegetables. One little store has leather sandals...... just various leather goods. The vision begins to fade.............................................................................................................. it darkens ......... it
would appear to indicate a lapse of time.The sun is up a little higher ......... I’m guessing it's about two hours later in the day.There are lots of people now ........... their voices resemble a humming sound likeswarms of bees. I can't make out what they are saying ................ just a lot of
excitement. They are on both sides of the street just waiting for something. There

are people up above on the roofs the roofs are flat and the people are looking
down. They , too, are waiting. The people have strange looks in their faces can't describe the look. Not a look of excitement exactly . .. it's just not a pleasant look. The Lord says to be at peace. "Their look is not important............................ concentrate."

All eyes turn down the street. Way in the distance there are men on horseback in uniform .. .. I think . ..men walk beside them and behind them. I can see a light.Things are no longer in three dimension ........ nothing but a series of lightsnow.......... mostly grays as has been before. The light that comes closer is asoft, pleasing light ............... oh, my ....... oh, my......... I'm so grateful I cannotsee .......... It is Jesus. He has no shoes, but I can see His feet even His feet areall wounds......... I can see the bones in His feet. He's walking and he 's forced tostep in all of this filth which presses into the wounds in His feet .......... He's going tofall........... He 's falling into this filth .. but ........... He looks this way...... and........ Hiseyes............ say............ everything. His eyes say I love you and I love them. And, I
will forgive them if they but ask Me.He says to look beyond the exterior........... to look at those who persecute Him with
pity for they do not know what they do. No disdain must come from us who love our Lord. Look with love and pity.

"My dear children,

(Mary) You have been allowed but a shadowy glancea glimmer of the perverseness of evilhardened hearts .....senses dulled by hatred and injusticebut you little ones are God's chosen children. The mission before you is so great for you have been given this opportunity to look back and see ... not to make these same mistakes. Unfortunately, little ones, these lessons are not well learned and only through

time ........... much patience and perseverance....... will you come to understand the
depth of the Love of Jesus.

Yes, My Son did walk these paths strewn with filth, but the filth you saw was not the filth that brought Him so much pain. It was the hatred, the oppression................................................................................................................... the

Anger ............ all of those things He trod upon because they are the poisons into
which the arrows have been dipped to pierce the hearts of His children.

I tell you now to go as did My Jesus .......... meek and humble of heart ...... into thearena of life.......... filled with peace...... that peace of abiding in the Father's Will."
