April 9th.

On Friday night of retreat with the Franciscans, during Adoration we each had a chance to kneel right in front of the Alter and pray. We were told before Adoration that after we were done praying we should take a rose from a vase under the alter and that that was our rose from Jesus. Most of the flowers were big rose blooms but there were a few that were tiny, just barely pink rose buds. I took one of the pink ones. As I was praying in Adoration God said to me "This flower is your vocation right now. I promise that some day you will be a big beautiful red rose bloom but right now you are still beautiful and you can still spread your fragrance in the world."

My Love,
Will you let me love you, serve you, defend you and protect you? Receive this rose as a sign of my love for you now and for all eternity.

My Love,
You are so beautiful to me right now. I love you more then human words can say. I love you! Look on me and see how much I love you. You are beautiful and I have given you clarity, don't doubt it. You are my bride already and I promise you I will give you the grace to withstand the world for a little while. I have chosen you and I will not let anything happen to you.

Don't you see how much strength, courage and trust you have already? I have given you everything you will need!
My Daughter,
I want you to want me. How will you ever understand how amazing it is and how blessed you are if you don't long and ache for it? In the mean time I'm asking you to be satisfied with being unsatisfied. I know it will be hard and I know it doesn't make any sense but will you do it? Will you wait? I'm offering you the choice, really I am but will you wait for them?

Betsy,
Struggle doesn't equal sin. Everyone struggles, even I, who am perfect, struggled in the garden. It's how you deal with the struggle that matters! What are you going to do with it?

I'm going to surrender it to you (and leave it with you!) Jesus I love you, save souls!

I love you too my daughter! Your beauty delights me and brings me joy.

A Conversation

This is a conversation I had with God one day as I was sitting in the bus stop at school.

What difference am I even making here? How can I help them? What good am I doing here?

My daughter,
You prayed for her, are you doubting the power of your prayers?

Yes. It doesn't seem like enough. It's just words. Why can't I do more? I want to do more! Jesus I trust in you.

Claim my Divine Mercy for them.

Jesus, I trust in you! I believe, help my unbelief!


My dear,
I've been trying to tell you this all day, I love you so much and not only am I your Lord and God, I'm also Daddy and Love. What happened to your child like confidence and faith and your deep love for me as your spouse? Why did it all disappear under the acts of devotion? I'm not telling you to stop covering your head, but remember that reasons behind it all.
~Daddy.
Betsy,
You don't have to be made of iron. You need to go easy on yourself. It's okay to cry about it. Let yourself be showered in my love and peace. Let the water from my side wash over you and cleanse you from the inside out. It's okay that you don't have it all together all the time, it's okay that you are scared and don't know how to react. That's all okay because you said yes anyway and that's all that matters!
~Daddy
Betsy,
You said yes when I invited you to great suffering for souls, of course I am proud of you my daughter! I love you so much. Let my love wash over you and strengthen you. My love is powerful! If you carry my love in your heart then you also will be powerful, powerful to do great good in the world. I have made you for this purpose. If this is what I made you for, will I leave you hanging? Of course not! I will give you everything you need to do this.
~Daddy

My love,
Who are you not do be mine? Who are you not to do this? Someone has to do it, so why not you? I knew that if I asked you, you would say yes because I have already given you all you will need and more. Of course it will be hard because you will snatch many souls from the hands of Satan and he hates that more then anything but Me so he will hate you as he hates Me. But you have Me crucified in you at all times so you have great power over him through the Eucharist. Do not be afraid.
~Daddy.
