This month's message is a breath of fresh air (although, all the Monthly Messages are!). But this one in particular couldn't have come at a better time for me. Lay apostles, any effort you make to become holier is not going unnoticed by heaven:
On the first of every month, our Lord gives
Anne a new message about His call to service.

Jesus
"Dear apostles, it is with all hope that I speak to
you today. I have hope in the vision held by heaven of the future of My Church
on earth. I am pleased when I see holiness increasing in My friends and this
increase in holiness is what gives Me hope for the Church. Yes, I am urging My
followers toward sacrifice and service and many of you are answering with your
whole hearts. You, listening to My words and allowing them to change you, are
giving Me great hope. With this hope I push on into the world, confident, that
while some resist change, others embrace it. Yes, change is happening, most
especially in the heart of every committed apostle. You are becoming holier. As
you are becoming holier, My Church is becoming holier. Apostles, hear this call
with all seriousness. I, Jesus, have everything needed to advance the Church
into greater unity. And I, Jesus, can do this as quickly as you will allow Me.
Find Me in your soul in each moment you are questioning your role in the
Kingdom. I will direct you. I hear many of you saying, 'Jesus, tell Me what to
do'. I am answering, 'Serve Me'. I am answering, 'Be committed to your
vocation'. And I am answering, 'Love each person you encounter and My kingdom
will come'. Do you see? The details of your life can be discerned with me over
time by examining your circumstances with the Spirit I have sent to you. There
is no need to be anxious about My will. You will know it in each day and in
each day My will can be noted in the duties and opportunities for service. Are
you sitting with Me quietly? Are you asking Me to help you become holier? Are
you offering Me your will? Or are you serving in the way you desire without
willingness to change and adapt when I need you to adapt? My friends, your life
will always be changing. This should not alarm you because I do not change and
My love for you does not change. Be at peace. Accept that if you are not open
to change then you are not open to becoming holier. All is well and I am
holding you very close to Me."
Be open, lay apostles, to Christ's call. He needs each and every one of us to do our part in the Renewal. How blessed are we as lay apostles to be receiving direction and encouragement from Jesus? Very blessed.
God bless,
Bonnie
