- Then I went to the Upper Room to be with the Lord there. And it turned out that I sat down at the Station of the Cross: the image depicted Simon helping Christ to carry the cross.

 You brought me here, Lord?

+So that you will remember your promise. Don't be afraid, it won't be beyond your strength.

 Man instinctively fears suffering. Don't mind it.

 - I want to fulfill Your will and be with You at the price of every suffering...

+You said important words. Remember them when the time of trial comes.

| Immediately after receiving Holy Communion

 - Transform me into Yourself...

+Do you want to bear my suffering?

 - Yes. Please let me...

+I will be with you. Listen to My voice and do as I command.

 - How do you see, Father, such meetings with You, full of ceremony - all these celebrations?

+I prefer simplicity and intimacy than what it was today.

 However, there are people who meet Me in this way.

 These are those who cannot afford depth or who have not been taught a true relationship with Me.

 - And this instruction on behavior and attitudes during prayer?

+The form should flow from the content and experience of the encounter with Me.

 When the encounter is genuine, the Holy Spirit guides the person's words, gestures and posture.

 Then there is authenticity.  Otherwise, it's just symbolism and custom - replacing the real experience with the whole thing.

 Psalm 7:2

 Lord my God, I have recourse to you;  save me and set me free...

- How good it is, Father, that you want to be with us...

+This is a consequence of creating you.

 I have created you for perfection, for love and reunion with Me. I want you all to be perfect, and I do what I can to help you, each according to the opportunities I have given them.

 You have free will and the right to accept or reject.

 In order for me to be able to fully act in your life, I need your choice, your consent to it. Constant consent, constant desire and expectation of My action. Willing acceptance, without analysis and evaluation.

 How much better I know how to guide you than you do.

 Therefore, total trust is needed.

 Then there are no obstacles and My action can be effective.

 Indeed, I have done everything to help you, and I have shown this to you by My coming in the form of a Man.

 I am constantly showing you through events and various everyday facts in the life of each of you.

 I am in everything and I create everything in order to bring you to Me.

 Open the eyes of your souls to see it. Strive to see the Truth. I will give the light needed to illuminate it. Wish! Desire is the key that unlocks My action. Desire and trust.

 Do not hide from Me like Adam in Paradise to hide your sinfulness . I know everything and nothing can be hidden from Me.

 Do not count on being able to repair it yourself and come to Me clean.

 You will not do anything yourself, and procrastination will increase the evil that has stuck to you.

Evil breeds evil. It must be brought to Me immediately to be removed before it grows. You must overcome shame and humbly desire My help.

 Any ambition, self-reliance is a hindrance, and therefore also an evil.

 True holiness begins with giving up all ambition and any independence towards Me.

 Everything that is good in you is from Me.

 The good in you is Me.

 +* Desire Me to transform you into Myself. You came from Me and your meaning of existence is to return. Everything you do with your heart, mind and body should lead to Me.

 I facilitate this return - desire and trust.

 Don't let your incompetence embarrass you and don't let it make you sad.

 I know you, I sympathize and I want to help.

 - Yesterday, after leaving the church, I showed impatience to someone again...

+I know. You already regretted it - and I have already forgiven.

 - Why did you give me this experience?

+ For if you are talking to Me and a man comes to you, stop the conversation and rejoice that you can show him My presence in you.

 I am also in this man and in fact your conversation with Me should not be interrupted, but also enriched by this external relationship between you.

 Eccles 1:14.13 

I have seen all that is done under the sun.

 And behold, all is vanity and a striving after the wind.

 God has given this painful occupation to the sons of men to do it.

 - Why such Words from Scripture, Father?

+Because you have to overcome the temptations of the vanity of this world: do not chase after them, or - in your case - for independence in leaving the world.
