can you say to the Bridegroom,
“I have not been invited
to this mystic union with You?”
He brought back the exiles,
so why would He forget you?
come and receive Him so that you may say:
“Look, I am at the service of God ...”
I mean to sing to you, Paraskevi, and tell
you that your innocence delights Me ...
as for your time of service, it is not
over yet; there is much left to atone for,
and much to work on; enough work in
dressing the wounds on My Mystical
Body; there is much ground to cover yet
in front of you and set alight by My Fire,
in order to plant the seeds of peace, love
and reconciliation; there is much left
unattended ... so do not weary yourself;
fix your gaze on Me and sparkle when I
am present!
be of good cheer because ecclesia will
revive; this is My solemn promise;
clouds may be covering Her now, but My
powerful Hand is on Her, constantly
blessing Her; the whole purpose of these
Odes is to revive My Church and draw
My people in Her; I am He who often
said: “let Her be inhabited by My Spirit;”
I promise you, Paraskevi, that even
remote exiles from distant lands, I will
bring to fill My Church; even those with
no identity, in some hidden corner, I will
find them and draw them all in where
the Holy Spirit dwells, for they too are
My children; no one will remain behind;
these prodigies weigh out gold and
silver, for these are the signs of My
presence among you;
But look at the world of today.
I have put in your mouth Odes coming
from the highest heaven and have sung
to you all My Hymn; I am proving to you
all that I am your Saviour; I have called
for penance, for acts of reparation, for
prayers; have I not been instructing you
all to lead a virtuous life? have I not been
showing you all My Mercy and My
boundless Goodness all these years? it is
written:
“think of God's marvels,
the
astounding things He has done in the
world; all over the world He puts an end
to wars ...”

see? I do not need your
works, brothers, I need your love, and
you My sisters as well, I need your love
as an act of reparation; I have brought
you a message of peace and I have
shown My Kindness, even to those who
did not deserve it, but the world is deaf;
the soil, Vassula, this soil that the world
has cultivated will soon give its
impudent harvest ... ic;

Eternal Joy of our hearts,
Revealer of the Truth,
Essence of Faithfulness,
Indescribable Meekness,
Kin to mankind,
Divine Illumination of our heart,
Sweetness of our soul,
Unutterable Joy of our being,
Divine Being for our being,
Enlightenment of our eyes,
Allow our wretched soul
to derive nourishment
from all Your Divine Sayings
to strengthen us
in compunction and meekness;
pupil, yes, ask for the grace of
compunction, through the act of
compunction the soul is led into a real
metanoia;

bone of My Bone, flesh of My
Flesh, allow Me to increase My rights in
you to decrease everything that can
interfere with My rights; in other words,
allow Me to augment in you to fill where
you lack; I want you to be found worthy
of My Kingdom;

Ps. 46:8-9.

Repentance.
