Message from JESUS, LORD AND LOVER OF THE DIVINE WILL

For the World

May 13, 2003 through Chris Courtis, a visionary in Maryland, U.S.A.

My dear and beloved children of My Father’s earth,

Today I come to be with you on this anniversary of My mother’s apparitions at Fatima. I come today to invite you to embrace your sufferings and your cross.

Your sufferings and your crosses are gifts from Me. Be united to Me, My little ones, through your sufferings, through your pains, through your sorrows, through your difficulties. The more you suffer, the more I love you. You cannot live in this life and not suffer. You’re experiencing the effects of sin in the world. Even if you were created without sin, as My mother and I were, you would not be immune from the effects of sin and temptation in this world. How can you expect not to suffer when I have suffered, and My mother has suffered for you?

Little ones, embrace your cross. Kiss My Cross. Though the cross is bitter, it is yet sweet. Though the cross is heavy, it is My gift to you. Do not be so blind as to run from the cross, because in the cross, you are embracing My humanity and My love. When you embrace My humanity and My love, you embrace redemption.

Participate with Me in My redemption by giving Me all your sacrifices and sufferings, and you will be united to Me on the Cross, and together, we will redeem the world. There is only one redeemer. I am your redeemer and your Lord and God. But you are called to be active participants with Me. Your suffering has merit, My little ones. Never lose sight of that. Think about how many souls are receiving graces through one act of suffering. Think about that, My children, and embrace it.

I am calling you today to another aspect of suffering, suffering for love of Me and humanity. You cannot say you love Me, or each other, without suffering for love of each other and Me. Draw closer to each other through your suffering and love. Hear Me, little ones. You can suffer and yet still not love. I am not calling you to that. That is selfish love. I am calling you to love unconditionally and to unite your sufferings out of love for Me and humanity. I give you graces through My sufferings. Why would I not give you graces through your sufferings? No suffering in this life lasts forever. There will be a time of peace and happiness. Yes, even in this world. Walk with Me. Share My walk. Love each other. Suffer for love of each other.

I also know how hard it is to suffer emotionally. You must be aware that some emotional suffering is also due to your part, and also on Satan’s part; your part for not cooperating with Me in the graces that I give you and Satan’s part in trying to deceive you that you suffer because you are bad or because you deserve it, and that is not so.

I want you to love and embrace My Cross by suffering for love of Me and each other. Therefore, I call you to go to Confession, renounce any suffering you may have done that was out of hatred or anger, and I will forgive you. And open your heart up to love, loving each other and Me. Love Me first and then others, and then suffer with whatever I give you. There is

also peace in your suffering if, and only if, you are willing to embrace Me

I bless you this evening with a special blessing. However, this blessing that I will give you is a special grace and blessing for each one of you. I will not say one particular blessing or grace like peace or love, because it will be different for each person here.

Now, as I make the Sign of the Cross, join Me as I bless you, in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. As I make the Sign of the Cross again, I will depart, but I leave you with My peace. Amen
