Messages of Saint Joseph

The Lenten journey, children, is a path of transformation, where the consciousness is invited to travel through the desert of its inner self, in which it will only find solitude from itself.

On the inner desert, you will be tested by your own aspects and by the aspects of the enemy, which with its cunning, will seek to confuse you so you lose your faith and the firm decision to surrender your lives.

The great keys to cross this inner desert are silence, humility, patience, and above all, children, the capacity to be transparent with yourselves, the capacity to look straight at your own inner abysses and still trust in the Hand that guides you and calls on you to go beyond the human condition.

The Lenten path is a challenging path, upon which souls are purified and faith is sometimes shaken, so that it can then be strengthened by a direct contact with the Creator. On the Lenten path, the adversary shows and presents the temptations of the world to you and its apparent conquests to cause you to feel that triumphs in the material world and being a "good" person are worth more than walking full of misery on a path of eternal battle and suffering.

Your human aspects and your miseries in purification will cause you to feel that you are not worthy of living the Divine Promise and that the Grace of God is not enough in your life so you can continue to walk. But today I tell you: go further! Continue to walk through this arid desert, letting each footstep along the way strip you of the world and fill you with God.

Continue to walk without wanting to see the results, rather just trusting that the Work of the Most High will be carried out in your lives beyond that which you can see, perceive or feel. Get to know the potential of faith that grows even in the darkness, because the Lenten path, children, is a path of transformation.

The Lenten path is a path of strength, but not seeing a consolidated strength, because it will only be revealed on the Cross. Lent is the time for building that fortitude within you, which paradoxically is built when you allow yourselves to be broken up into a thousand pieces and be rebuilt by God.

The Lenten fortitude is not a human fortitude, but rather a Divine Fortitude which is revealed through human fragility, because it is only when the human aspects give way to the Higher Aspects of God that you will be capable of perceiving the purpose of each trial and suffering.

The fortitude of the Lenten faith was revealed in the extreme and transcendent Love of the Cross, as well as in the power of the Resurrection of Christ, after He allowed Himself to die, with a death that caused Him to break into a thousand pieces, expressed in His scourged Flesh, in His spilled Blood and His shattered Soul; it was then, when the resurfacing of what seemed impossible to regain life, that the human fragility revealed Divine Fortitude. That is what is generated on the Lenten path.

Thus, walk and take each step with a humble and ready heart.

Allow the transformation to take place, that the vessel break and that the Divine Potter rebuild it so as to reveal His creative potential through His new vessel.

You have My blessing for this.

Your father and friend,

The Most Chaste Saint Joseph
