Silence
Date: July 22, 2011
Silence is the realm of God. Silence is a state of being in union with God. Silence is as if ascending a ladder. You must begin on the lower steps to reach the highest. A human soul must begin to enter silence through the mortification of the tongue, thoughts, and internal noise. Daily periods of silent prayer help the soul come to know silence. The beginning steps of entering and living in silence are the most difficult and tedious. If a soul perseveres in mortifying her senses, the Father will bless her with experiences of coming in contact with the Divine. The human heart and flesh will experience Me. These divine visitations will serve to awaken the human heart to a greater desire for Me. These visitations will encourage her weak human nature to continue climbing the steps of silence, mainly through perseverance in prayer.
The journey can be very hard depending on the strength of will of the soul, and at times she might find herself descending the steps, but her thirst for My love and visits will be the fuel that keeps her ascending. My Spirit is the One that is her companion at each step. My Spirit is her help, guide, and inner strength, but as of yet, she does not know Him. His life and light are growing in her being, and with her ascent, through the abandonment of her will, the life of the Spirit is strengthening in her. But it is in the fire of My Sacred Heart that you come to know personally the Holy Spirit. It is now that you have ascended into the silence of the Trinity. In the Holy Spirit, you possess Me and the Father as One. The Spirit now lives in you, and you in Him. You are ONE. This Divine dimension is SILENCE.
When you enter this Divine union in silence, the soul must be careful to nurture it; careless speech and careless activity can bring the soul out of this Divine dimension of silence. My little one, you have ascended the ladder, and you possess the life of the Trinity in you, but protect and nurture this life in the interior silence of continuous prayer of love, praise, and thanksgiving. Teach many what I am teaching you, for the time is short.
