Only in spiritual humility will you see the true state of your soul and so understand the work necessary for you to become holy. Holiness is your target. If a soul is holy, Jesus can flow great graces through that soul into the world. Do not think about your own goals, little apostle, without checking them against Jesus’ goals. In this time Jesus requires many apostles who strive to be humble. This is the opposite of what the world encourages. Do you see? Study this concept and you will see that great smallness is necessary in the Kingdom of God. Souls in heaven do not tear each other down, but build each other up.
Strive for smallness in your service to the Kingdom. Be content to allow Jesus to have the glory. He will gaze into your soul and see the longing for holiness and He will make you holy, but He can only do this if you allow Him. You will see in Jesus’ life an example of constant patience with others. He was gentle on earth and He is still gentle. Because He is gentle, He is patient with you. You must be patient with others. You must be gentle with others. You must be forgiving of others, trusting His ability to work in the soul who allows Him freedom.
If a soul is willing, Jesus will help them. He has told you this. Trust His words and pray for each other, particularly those with whom you are called to walk during this time of transition. Believe Jesus when He tells you that all will be well. Your concern at this time should be to advance in holiness and you will only advance if you remain small. Be at peace in everything because His grace is more powerful than any bitter plans of the enemy. He is asking you to concentrate on your own movement to Him. For each apostle who gives Him their pride, He gives the world His majesty, the majesty of Jesus Christ, your King.
