2010.09.21. and of the saints, for the heaven joined the earth in your time with the Lord on earth and my Son is invisible and clothed with the angelic hosts into your midst speaking over the earth and the Lord has made you His messenger to the people and the people come to you to take from your table with the Lord, and like the Bridegroom coming out of his chamber, the Lord comes out from your midst to the people and He calls out from the door of your tent so that the people may hear Him, so that they may come, take, understand and then become God’s sons by the heard word and by faith and love, for love heals the man from sin and brings mercy to him and then forgiveness and resurrection. Oh, Son, Emmanuel, the child put by the Father as seed of the Holy Spirit in my virgin womb to grow in it as a child to be born, a body made up of my flesh and blood by the power of the Father Sabaoth! Oh, how much grace embraces a forgiven sinner and how much love rules upon him after he tastes of Your grace, of Your truth, Lord! Oh, how much gratitude shows You the one seized with Your mercy and forgiveness from You, from Your sanctifying grace! How much patience, how much humility rules then upon the one who unites with You by for- giveness and by love with the help of the spirit of repentance, such a sweet spirit in the one who bears it! He who grieves or gets cruel in times of trial or in time of rebuke, that one does not know what love and its beneficial and sanctifying work are, and the lack of love among brothers has to be healed, Lord, because the mystery of Your Gospel about the love among brothers is great. Oh, where was the love between the two brothers, who separated when the father opened up his fatherly arms to meet the prodigal son, a time that destroyed his body and soul? On the day of his repentance, the heart of the son who remained near his father hardened and his love of brother was put to test, because he thought that his father did injustice to him and thus he hardened his heart and his face fell, and here it is how the heart of the man works, when he sees how it is given the reward that he thinks he has the right to it. Oh, love is not like that; it does not do such things! It is not that which receives, but it is that which gives and it is given, and how the father with the two of his sons was supposed to be when the love, the mercy and the forgiveness of his heart were put to test on the day when the son who remained home re- belled because of the forgiveness of his brother? Oh, how badly Israel treated You, oh, my Son, when You came to it bearing the burden of all the sinners and lost people, child born of my virgin body and then put on the cross by those who did not receive You to forgive the burden of their sins! Oh, they were afraid of You that you would take their right of inheritance and they showed their wickedness and their heart burdened with greed and sins, and then they have been afraid all the time, from then and up to this time, so that another people, which You have elected from among the nations of the world to show Your mercy on it, may take their place, and thus they have been struggling all the time for precedence among nations and even today Israel is ruthless and hard in its heart and work; however, You have a mysterious word and You perfect Yourself by it over the earth and You give birth and grow a new people, a new Israel, an invincible kingdom, the kingdom of the heavens with the people, the Christian people full of the spirit and body of holiness, Lord, a nation newly-born of Your new word and to whom You put Your new name on its head: the Word of God, Your word of today, which gives birth to a new people (See the selection topic: „Romania – The New Jerusalem – The New Canaan”, r.n.) and which You will be to feed with the food of the angels, and not anyone is supposed to preach Your great work of Your word, because not anyone speaks this word to be given to the people, but only by those whom You call and teach and then You send them to become an example of Your kingdom among people, for You cannot be born otherwise in people. Oh, let the bad man not set down to take Your word to 3
