8 True Life in God Notebooks 1-6
What is it exactly to be holy?
to be holy is to be pure and completely
devoted to Me; holy is to work with love
for Me; holy is to love Me and stay near
Me; holy is to obey the Law; holy is to be
like I am;
Can one be holy in heart only?
yes!
Is the heart what counts more than the holy
clothes?
yes, the heart is what is important;
remain near Me, remain near Me;1 you
are not near Me like I wish! I feel you are
evading Me;
(Jesus was not happy ...)
I am Holy, so I want you to be holy;
I really want to be nearer to You!
do you really mean it? are you really

garments to be holy; what worth are holy
garments when the heart is unholy? it is
like salt having lost its taste; I am going
to you to be nearer to Me; I will bring
you closer to Me; feel loved by Me, do
not fear Me, I am Peace; I, Jesus, guide
you, I lead you; pray more and work
with Me in this way; augment your faith
in Me; need Me; be watchful for the time
is near;

daughter, do you feel I have trapped
you? I love you, beloved, do not fear Me;
you seem to fear that I am trapping you!
(True, I mentioned to my friends this and
used the word ‘trap’.)
I know, I wished that you love Me;
Are You angry?
no, I am not;
Shall I be frank?
be;
You wanted me to love You?
I did;
