Would any of you give a stone to your son, when he asks for bread?
Or give him a snake, when he asks for a fish?
However bad you may be,
you know how to give good things to your children.
How much more, then, will your Father in heaven
give good things to those who ask him.
---- mine,
Every day and through the day, you plead with Me to have mercy on those you love who have strayed far from the Way of Truth. Your heart is heavy, you brood all day long, you wonder whether in your lifetime you will see and experience the joy of answered prayer, and they will come home to Me and return to the place in My Body to which they belong. Do not lose heart, ---- my own, continue to pray with confidence, to fast, and to give alms. You keep the commandments faithfully. You live your life in submission to My will every hour of every day, to discern My will for your life, moment by moment, and do it. Live in My Shadow and trust Me in all things. I who brought you out of darkness in My own marvellous light will I not do the same for those you pray for? I love them too with the same love with which I love you. Remember that God, who is Your Father and who is perfect, all knowing, all loving, all powerful, all goodness, all beauty, and all love, is the most perfect of fathers and in His sublime goodness, generosity, and love, He will save all those you pray for. He who is holy and perfect will withhold no good thing that is necessary for salvation from your loved ones. They will return to My fold, and I will be their Shepherd. This is the Father's will and desire that not one of His little ones be lost.
