LITTLE APOSTLE:
O my Jesus… how fragile my soul stands before You.
This human wretchedness and weakness cannot, at times, even fight itself.
My soul is completely at Your mercy, submissive to Your divine will.
O do what You will, my Lord…
Without You, I am nothing.
I can do nothing unless I remain united to You,
for You alone give life to my soul.
Such days seem to fade into evening, and then into dark nights…
my heart cannot endure this for long.
Where have You been, my Lord?
Why have You seemed far from me once again?
I realise now that nothing we do—
not even our efforts to trust in You,
nor the peace that comes from knowing You are our God,
nor even the memory of the marvels of Your works within the soul—
has lasting value without Your grace.
All seems to vanish without it.
And this dark world at times appears to prevail,
presenting even its cemetery of evil as something beautiful,
as it daily distracts us away from You,
who are Love and Goodness itself.
If even for a moment Your grace is withdrawn, we fall.
O my Lord… this longing exhausts me,
yet I know how precious are these moments of union with You.
How many souls You have conquered and dwell within,
yet they take such grace for granted—
the gift of Baptism and all that flows from it.
Lord, speak even a little to my heart…
I promise to listen attentively to Your loving Heart.
Do not leave me long in this exile without Your love and grace…
JESUS:
My beloved…
Do not let your heart be overcome by the passing darkness.
Night may come, but it does not remain.
Even when you do not feel Me, I AM near.
I permit these moments
so that your love may be purified,
so that your trust may rest not in feeling,
but in truth.
Have I not told you that I AM with you always?
The world may appear to shine in its illusions,
yet it cannot give what it promises.
Its beauty fades,
its voice deceives,
and its path leads only to emptiness.
But My love remains.
Even when you feel surrounded by darkness,
even when your soul seems silent and weary,
My grace is still at work within you.
Do not measure My presence
by what you feel,
but by what I have spoken.
You are Mine.
And I do not abandon what is Mine.
LITTLE APOSTLE:
O Jesus…
let me not be deceived by the enemy of my soul,
who has greatly tormented me.
Restrain me from the passing things of this world,
whenever they draw me away from Your will for my life.
May I fix my gaze upon Your holy face,
not turning to the right or to the left, nor looking back,
but remaining steadfast in You,
O Eternal Truth.
JESUS:
Beloved of My Heart, here I AM. I ask you now:
Will you yet give ear to the cry of a lost soul?
You are not lost.
My child, though you are but dust,
yet you are clothed in the dignity I have bestowed upon you.
Forget not this.
Much have I ordained to accomplish through you.
Arise, therefore—
clothe yourself in the grace I bestow,
and walk steadfastly in the light I have entrusted to you.
Heaven is with you.
At this hour, let no self-pity remain within your soul.
Cast it from you.
Receive instead the strength I grant you,
for the work I am bringing forth through you
for the salvation of souls.
Soul of My choosing, forget not:
your life is held within My will.
Be attentive to Me.
Remember who you are before Me,
and your place before your God.
Remember always....
Any sense of loss is only momentary, my amber...
for I AM your Lord,
and I have claimed you for Myself.
Never doubt this, little one.
And the same I say to all My beloved children:
I do not abandon those who are Mine,
who strive to remain in My grace.
Even if they wander,
even if they endure darkness or feel My absence,
I will come for them.
I will bring them back,
for I AM the Good Shepherd.
Little apostle, you are now found in my tender embrace.
I hold you closely—you are dear to Me.
Let us begin again.
There is always a new beginning in Me.
Come—receive My embrace.
Let Me build my story iwth you, Oh soul...
so that souls may come to know the Heart of My Father
and My Sacred Heart more and more profoundly,
which loves without end
and desires all to be filled and satisfied in that love.
May all My children enter this refuge
and know how deeply they are loved—
by a God who desires to clothe them
in the fabric of divine love.
Beloved…
Will you carry My Sacred Heart to the ends of the earth?
LITTLE APOSTLE:
Yes, dear Lord…
Majesty indescribable and humility unfathomable.
I thank You for the strength You have given me.
O Jesus, my Lord and Savior…
teach me to remain.
Teach me to understand the higher trust You ask of me,
as You lead me along unknown paths,
And when I can not see You,
nor feel or hear Your loving Heart,
nor perceive You in my weakness— or
even when the way is hidden in darkness,
and I struggle to follow You in holiness so sublime.
Hold my soul, my Jesus,
for without You I cannot stand.
I desire to do Your will always,
for my purpose is found in You alone.
Where could I go?
You are life,
the river of living water flowing through my soul.
JESUS:
Come closer, little one.
Rest now in My Heart.
It is there that you will find peace—
not the peace the world gives,
but the peace that remains
even in the midst of trial.
I AM forming your soul
in these hidden hours.
Do not be afraid of what you do not understand!
What I allow is never without purpose.
Your weakness does not separate you from Me—
it draws you closer,
when it leads you to depend on My grace.
Remain in Me.
Return often to Me in prayer before My presence,
and receive Me in the Most Holy Eucharist,
for there I give Myself to you completely.
Let this be your strength.
LITTLE APOSTLE:
O Beloved Son of God,
You take away the sins of the world—receive our praise.
Thank You for rescuing me, Lord.
Receive from this weak soul
at least a small offering of love,
though it cannot match the praise You receive
from Your holy angels.
My soul stands transparent and vulnerable before You.
If You will that others see through this gift what we speak,
let them see only You.
Let this poor soul fade away,
like the morning dew that disappears,
so that You alone may be glorified.
May You be praised in all things,
my Lord and my Saviour.
JESUS:
I AM the Alpha and the Omega.
To all who believe in Me
and accept the Life and friendship I offer,
they shall be satisfied
and rejoice in the life to come.
Go in peace, dear one.
Return again,
for I have much to share with My children.
I love you!
