Marathon of Divine Mercy
APPARITION OF THE GLORIFIED CHRIST JESUS IN FATIMA, PORTUGAL, TO THE VISIONARY FRIAR ELÍAS DEL SAGRADO CORAZÓN DE JESÚS, AT THE 128TH MARATHON OF DIVINE MERCY

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Today, August 6, My task with you comes to an end, after having walked 11 years at your side, learning from the events, learning from the life experiences, from the errors and successful moments.

Despite any circumstance, companions, I was by your side and will always be, when you simply seek Me in the simplicity of the heart, free from any opulence, free from any personal or material ostentation.

You already know that the Lord is not present in wealth, but rather in poverty, that My Heart is thirsty through those who suffer and those who have to endure in all parts of the world. This is what I revealed to Mother Therese of Calcutta; see in her example the carrying out of the work of My Mercy and My Charity.

This is what I always expect from you, as from many works in the world, which I attentively accompany, because it is the souls that I accompany, the souls of all My companions, servers in the world. It is there, in the pain, the agony, the suffering and endurance of the most discarded and vulnerable, the poorest among the poor, where you will always find Me.

The Lord of the Universe, your Lord Jesus Christ, did not come to govern palaces or any other human power, because, as I told you a little while ago, My Government has always been the Crown of Thorns, to assume what does not correspond to Me in silence, in selflessness and in anonymity, just as I demonstrated to you through My Sorrowful Passion.

As I told you yesterday, this is the path, the only path that I offer to My friends, those who decide to be with Me. For this reason, do not delay, divest quickly from all that you believe you have achieved or conquered. Because I assure you, companions, that if it were not through My intervention and Grace, you could not be here, because by yourselves you would not manage to achieve it.

Great are the contrary forces that strike the planet, but greater are the contrary forces that you yourselves must face in your own hearts. However, I have also already told you that the one who is truly with Me will not perish.

The wind will try to knock you down, the shipwreck will try to submerge you and even the darkness will try to absorb you, but the one who surrenders every day at My Feet shall not perish. For it is important that you may remember that what is foreseen for your lives is already written, and this, which was written by God Himself, will be fulfilled through your own decisions.

Many have been the treasures delivered, they have been incalculable and imperceptible.

I want you to meditate today with Me on those steps that you have managed to take, small and short steps, yet secure and decided steps. Because today, I want you to look, not to your imperfection or your miseries.

I want you, for the first time in each one of your lives, contemplating these eleven years of the journey with the Master and Lord of the Universe, to contemplate the Work of My Mercy timidly carried out in your lives and in the lives of your brothers and sisters.

In this end of time, while the Lord withdraws in the Kingdom of God, also living His own synthesis just as you do, is it possible for My companions to be capable of internally contemplating the fruits of redemption, the fruits of conversion, the fruits of perseverance and faith?

I want you to enter, before August 8, in this spiritual and inner state of consciousness.

Remember that for Me there are only victims of My Love, and to be victims of My Love means surrender, obedience and truth, transparency in your acts, humility in your actions, obedience before the call of My Heart.

Each one knows what burdens them, but it is time and the moment for each one to know what I have managed to do, through each heart and each soul.

Do not forget that you are travelers of the spirit. Therefore, meditate and reflect without shame, without guilt, without playing the role of victim. Meditate and reflect with spiritual adulthood so that, for yourselves, you may realize how much you have given to the Lord.

The self-giving of life has no limits, it cannot be measured by thought or by actions. The self-giving of life is a work of love and wisdom; of knowing every day that, despite how you are and how you find yourselves, there will be someone, there will be a soul and a heart incarnated that will always need more, that will always need to be listened to, that will expect relief and consolation from their fellow beings.

Therefore, I invite you, definitively, to remove the mask of arrogance, pride and pettiness. I want you free from yourselves. Although you may try it every day and, although you may fall every day and may have to stand up again, remember this that I tell you today; because true freedom from the prisons of life, the prisons of the heart and of the soul, or of all spiritual ego, is achieved with the surrender of oneself, absolutely devoid of any intention.

Imagine, companions, that if your Christ Himself, the Master Jesus, had not emptied Himself absolutely in the Garden of Gethsemane, how could He have carried His own Cross upon His Back?

Divestment is not something transitory, divestment is practiced daily. Is it, by any chance, wrong?

Is it a form of chastisement to divest of oneself, as the trees and even the flowers that lose their most sacred beauty during the winter to be reborn in springtime renewed and to give the best of themselves again?

If the flowers lose their petals during the winter, does it mean that they have been abandoned by the Creator?

Everything is reborn and dies. This is a Law in Creation.

If you could see, with eyes of joy, what this means, to be able to die to yourselves to be born again, evil would not exist in the world, and not even the power that many believe they have would exist. Because the Work of My Mercy is impersonal, but it is an infinite Work for souls, it is an inexplicable magnetism brought about by the Source of Creation itself, where all souls are called upon to become liberated from sin. Because the Ocean of My Mercy, which once opened on the Cross through My Heart pierced by the spear of the soldier, is an ocean that exists only for souls.

My task has been fulfilled with you and I expect that in you My Will may be fulfilled.

The path is now open for you to walk it. It is time to walk with your own feet, just as We have indicated. It is at this moment, of walking for yourselves, that you will understand all that I have told you throughout the times.

Nothing has been by chance, this does not exist for God. For God there is a Cause and a Purpose, which all are called to live in order to fulfill and accomplish, according to what was determined in the Heart of the Father.

Today, I bring in My Hands two scrolls; one represents the Legacy written in the souls, in all those who will be capable, in the end of times, despite My recollection and the end of My task, to fulfill the Purpose that was entrusted for your lives, souls and essences.

From the Heavens, and from all of the universe, I will be attentive to the development of this Purpose for each one, and I will ardently continue to pray for this cause, so that all can be consistent with Me, just as I have been consistent with you throughout these eleven years, in an uninterrupted way.

The second scroll that I bring in My Hands is the new cycle of this Work founded by Me, through determination of God the Father, and through the consciousness of José Trigueirinho. This scroll represents the starting again, as it was in the origin of Figueira, where the life of the spirit beat in the sacred ether of this Community.

And the Law, which at the beginning was respected, revered and loved, will attract again, as a magnet does, all the servers that have stayed in limbo and who, although incarnated at this moment, internally wait to start again and be able to resume the trajectory that was interrupted for different reasons, which, one by one, I Am repairing through My supplication.

For this reason, I ask you, companions, to give continuity to My Work, despite the fact that I Am no longer among you in the coming times, because God will be attentive so that you may be consistent and responsible regarding this Work of Love, which exists for one cause: the awakening of consciousness and loyalty, of simplicity and humility in life, without lacking anything.

Because, in spite of everything, thirty-seven years of the spiritual path and foundations made by many faithful souls of this Work will not be in vain. I come to acknowledge the value of self-giving that was faithfully delivered by My servers.

The Boat of the Lord is again guided by the Hands of the Shepherd Himself, the rudder is in My Hands and the souls are with Me.

Do not perish, renew yourselves through My Spiritual Presence, because I assure you that those who each one of the tears of those who have been somehow affected unjustly, has been counted by Me.

God is reborn in simple hearts, in those who faithfully respond to His Call.

Behold this scroll, companions, the time of the hope and spiritual resurrection of the pillars that founded Figueira.

May those who have always become silent rejoice.

May those who have been oppressed feel bliss.

May those who have been separated be reborn, because the Work belongs to your Lord, and to no one else.

Happy and blissful are those who understand through My Words, because they will be sitting with Me at the last table of the Eucharist and Redemption, when your Master and Lord returns in Glory as a Humble Pilgrim, to distribute the bread and share His Body with His own, with each one of His companions.

May the Infinite Creator bless you; and on this coming August 8, may the history that God determined be written again, without interferences, with an honest heart, free from superstitions, greed, or expectations. Because the Hand of God writes the way He determines.

Who is capable to deter the Pencil of God?

Who has done so, let them repent and amend themselves before it is too late. My spiritual petition is for a true and deep repentance.

See the Lord in the ocean of His Mercy, guiding the Boat toward the new direction, toward the Land of rebirth and hope that many will recover.

This is My promise for all the efforts that you have made throughout these eleven years, for each agony experienced, for each bead prayed, for each service offered, for each cry that I Myself heard in your loneliness. Everything is counted in this universe.

Now come to My Promised Land, be part of My Celestial Kingdom.

A good commencement for the brave!

My Peace for the suffering world.

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
