Then Jesus pointed to his disciples and said,
“Look! Here are my mother and my brothers.
Whoever does the will of my Father in heaven
is my brother and sister and mother.”
---- mine,
Nothing in heaven or on earth is greater than doing the will of My Father in heaven; all else pales before this. In heaven, all the angels are in perfect accord with His will, and every saint has known that there is no easier way to perfect union with God than to seek above all else to discern My Father's will and do it. If you wish to live ---- my own, seek to die to yourself, to your desires, all that clamors within you for fulfilment, and instead lift up your eyes to My Father in heaven and ask the Holy Spirit dwelling within you to reveal the Father's will for you. And what is My Father's will? It is to know Me, whom He has sent into the world to make Him and His love visible and tangible to you. How did I do this? by embracing His will and in obedience to it, coming into the world as one like you, taking on human flesh from the Woman chosen by God to give Me a Body. In My Body, I received every sin ever committed by the human race from the first to the last into My own flesh, My soul, My spirit, and I made perfect atonement for every one of them so you could approach My Father without condemnation from Him. Because the Father has done this for you in giving up His only Son to make atonement for your sins, there is nothing more important or more imperative for you at all times, everywhere, and in all circumstances, to humbly seek the will of My Father in heaven and do it. Anyone who wishes to be My brother, sister, or mother must first embrace My Father's will as comprehensively as My Mother did. She is the Woman now clothed with the Sun, for whom doing the will of God was food and drink just as it was for Me. Seek His will, ---- my own, in all things and do it. Nothing is more pleasing to Me when you do.
