The question of peace<\/strong><\/p>\n

If people were to seriously heed God\u2019s calling to prayer, all men and women would be saints already. If one accepted and practiced the Unity in diversity among the Churches, as the Lord is asking, already there would be a hope that the Prayer of Jesus to the Father will be accomplished. If every human being responded to God\u2019s Love which He deploys in His Message of True Life in God for each one of us, our lives would turn into a Hymn of Love. If people took seriously the warnings of Christ about Satan\u2019s fury in these last days, the latter would have been already conquered and banished from men\u2019s hearts and from the world. If all the religions of the world would answer God\u2019s calling to reconciliation, all men and women would already recognize each other as brothers and sisters, descending from one Source.
\nAnd if everyone realized that we are living in a time of ineffable Grace and Mercy and that God in full power is renewing His creation, we would never cease praising God night and day and our hearts will turn into a blazing furnace of zeal!<\/p>\n

Let us learn from the Prophets of old, how on their way they learned selfrenunciation, self-denial by putting God\u2019s Interests and God Himself first in their life. They learned to strip themselves from their ego, and their will.<\/p>\n

Let us today become warriors of righteousness asking God for an untamable courage, to let our zeal and love we have for God be directed towards the good and the glory of God. We may be weak, but God will sustain us in His strength. We may not have it easy, but in our struggle we can put our trust in God who will teach us how to persevere and to accomplish our mission by glorifying Him.<\/p>\n

We must allow God to strip us from all that is worldly so as to imprint in us His Own Holy Image. Hard as our oppressors may harry us, we shall not be broken or overpowered, but instead they will cringe at our presence. In our poverty of spirit, we will give God the possibility to invade us with His Light enlightening us with Wisdom; in our wretchedness and incapacity, God will give us nobility of spirit to carry out His Word fearlessly.<\/p>\n

In Christ,
\nVassula<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
