The Will of Saint Virginia

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

My beloved children, with holy love I share with you words from the Holy Spirit and teachings to serve to your souls' salvation, as thanksgiving to your love you have showed to me and wrapped into remembrance of my birthday – the Sunday of Saints. In the name of the Lord, I urge you to make use of your entire will and power, to do your best to fulfil them, for in this way I will be stronger among you and the Lord will pour a greater blessing for His people.

My children entrusted to me by the Lord, here is what the Holy Spirit is giving to me to share with you: live in peace with the Lord Jesus Christ, live in peace with one another, be united in everything in the name of the Lord, be brothers in the name of the Lord and with the Lord. Do not look for your own benefit and each one of you must serve his neighbour, since it is only in this way you will come to accomplish the Lord’s law. Do not stop doing good things, because you will reap what you seed. But be careful how you work with the good, so that it will remain your work. Whatever you do, do as for the Lord, not as for people, because the Lord pays back. Urge one another with humbleness for good works, support each other with brotherly love in times of trouble, be patient and do not pay back evil for evil, but forgive each other the mistakes tirelessly, so that the Father in the heavens will forgive everything too.

My children, watch yourselves with much care, so that you will not upset the spirit of your brother, because the Lord is living inside you. You must honour the Lord's Spirit, who lives in you, and do not despise what the Lord has chosen and loved, so that you will not be in opposition to the work of the Lord. Only in this way your heart will be full of peace, only in this way you will live together in peace. Do good works, because they will be the payment for your sins and so you will be free of punishment. Do not say you can not do the good work. A good work is even when you tell your brother a good word, give him a pure smile, an encouragement, a brother-like warm look. A good work is also if you are a peacemaker. If you, as a brother, when another brother comes to you to talk ill of someone among you, if you unite with him by bowing your head and being ashamed of stopping his hate and his disgraceful action, then what kind of peacemaker are you? That is how the wickedness strengthens among you. Do not be indulgent with the wickedness. Then how would you fulfil the law of the Lord, what kind of brothers you both would be? Because real brothers are ready to go into fire one for the other. Do not upset one another, because this is what these acts mean. And you, who are wiser, help the people who suffer undeservedly and do not let the wickedness conquer, and so you will kill the bad habits in you. Send away your evil habits and thoughts, so that you would not kill each other with the wickedness, so that that you would not kill each other’s spirit. This is the way you need to work always, with faith and hope, without judging by yourselves, but by letting God’s judgment be in all the needs, so that tiredness would not be in vain.

My children, watch over yourselves, so that you will not commit sins, watch with fear, my dear child, because the sin becomes a wall between you and God and so sometime, you might get to a point when you may not be able to receive the light from God, and that is how you get darker, colder, and you get empty of your soul, you estrange from the law deeds and from holiness and then you will have no more light, and you are not going well anymore, and you are getting cold and you do not want God anymore. Because where the Lord's Spirit is lessened because of the sins, there the knowledge and the longing for God are slipping away. But He is stays and waits for your penitence, your humbleness, your shout in the dark, so that He would come and save you, absolve you from the linkage of sin and pour again over you the rain of the Holy Spirit. But do not dare to hope that by committing sins all the time, the Lord will always forgive you. He will be merciful indeed, but do not forget that He gave you much and He will ask much from you.

The Lord has loved you very much as a love similar to His love for those who are smaller than Him has never existed. How do you love Him, how much do you love Him? Perhaps some of you say that you love Him, and maybe you hate your brother. But do not forget that you can show your love for the Lord only by loving the brothers in the same way you love yourselves. This, and not any other, is the love for the Lord. Oh! You will not do so. You are doing to the Lord whatever you do to your brother, either good or bad. Be devoted to this teaching.

My children, now more than ever it is time to be ready for the Lord's coming. And He has said that the end would have arrived when we see that love is getting colder. You see that the love for God got colder everywhere, but this meaning is broad and I am shaking when I see and know that your love has gotten colder too, although you had it all from the Lord through the words of this prophecy that feeds you from the Holy Spirit. Weeks are passing by and you do not sing anymore to the Lord songs of glory, with your heart and with your mouth, you do not meet in two or three in the name of the Lord for advice, you do not wish heavenly joy, you have got colder in your spirit and this is a deeper pain, because you are not praying with your whole heart, with yearning and thirst as it is when you are hungry or thirsty. And if you do this as God taught you, you do this to fulfil the Lord's law and word, but not as a result of the love or longing to talk with God in prayer with fear and trembling. During the prayer, the angels are ready to bear all your words high up, the Lord is ready to listen to you, but you are using your mouth and not your heart, you are with God only with the reading of the prayer and not with your mind. I urge you, in the name of God, to come back to the prayer with diligence, with care and with love. When you stay and pray, analyse yourselves, forgive everything so that you will not tell the prayer “Our Father” making it to be your punishment, when you are saying: and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. When you stay and pray, make the prayer to be your own, try to feel it, to live in it, to give it truly to the Lord, because then He stays in front of you and sees if your heart is at Him or not. Pray with absolute humbleness, talk with God with the language of your heart, with pure and clear thought. Get rid of the whole lay care, because the Lord is a jealous God. When you stay and pray in the spirit of truth, then the entire heaven stays in front of you, without being visible. Become one with the heaven and with its saints as if, during the prayer you pass beyond the boundaries of this world. This is the mystery of the real prayer, with which you meet in heaven. This is the way you should be at the time of the prayer. But you are cold – so that the heaven is grieving – because you do not feel the prayer, it does not pass through your heart.

Oh, Lord, how many things You allow us to do!

My dears, the Lord God does not allow you any more to honour Him only with your lips and He wishes you to do this with your heart, He is asking for your heart. He has pretensions to you, because He has never given to anyone what He gave to you, and in the time that is coming you will see what he has given to you. Lord does not allow you anymore to sleep during the night prayer, He wants all of you to be awake, from youngest to oldest, the entire people of this prophecy, such as you would wait for the Lord's coming, watching with hope and fear. You will not be allowed to pass beyond this bridge without prayer and fast. The prayers will be the best mediators, the greatest salvation for you. Oh, if you had made the prayer be your own, if you would have felt it, you would not have been bad at all and you would have been full of the Lord's Spirit, and you must know that the Lord was kind, without doubt. The prayer that is made with faith and humbleness would be considered our purity, such as you would say: God, have mercy on me, the sinful, since I have no deeds and no life from which to wait for my salvation; this is why I fall before you with fear, shouting with pain for the prayers of Your Mother, forgive me, You merciful, and save me… when we say so, our prayer must bore the heaven, feeling it with our whole heart. This is how we must pray.

I urge you in the name of God. And I urge you again to watch yourselves, watch over each other’s behaviour, so that you would not make each other insane, you would not destroy the love that each of you feels for God. This is a serious sin, which can not be unpunished; this sin sorrows the entire holy heaven, because The Lord has suffered so much just to bring a soul to His work, during these foggy times. Do not stop the Lord's plan by doing this, for you do not know what the Lord has to work with each of you, depending on the graft and each person’s working in this work of the Holy Spirit. Do not judge one another anymore without justified reasons. This is up to the Lord, because, if you would forgive each other, then the Lord in heavens would send forgiveness and blessing over you.

Watch the way you dress, so that you are be liked by the Lord and not by people, because if you do not fulfil what God has always taught you, if you do not watch over yourselves, over your behaviour, over your costumes, I tell you that you will cry and say: Oh, Lord, why we did not fulfil what You have taught us, so that we would have the joy with which You will arrive. My children, this is not a joke, the Lord was poor, bare-foot, humble and you are wearing parade clothes, as the people are. How will you stand by the Lord wearing such clothes, when He is only wearing a shirt? How many things God has given to you, so that you would not be in need of anything and you would be happy? Have you, in your turn, made somebody happy, for the purpose of working to your happiness? If you have two coats from the Lord, have you given one of them to the poor people, as the Lord says? I am speaking with you clerically. God has given everything in abundance to you, He has suffered poverty and persecution just to give everything in abundance to those who love Him, but you, as a Christian, are keeping them for the fire, instead of working with them for the purpose of saving your soul. Only what you give to the one who is in need is yours for good, the rest is for fire. Give all you have to the Lord, so that you will have an unbreakable treasury, thinking that the entire earth, together with all that is on it, will burn and you will still be nude and poor, loosing the eternal happiness, because of some years you did not want to give to Lord, for the purpose of being with Him both on the earth and in the holy heavens. Life on earth is short, so do not lose the other, the eternal one, for this.

Only you can prepare your place in heaven, as beautiful as you wish. What do you want to have in heaven? The Lord has given you everything into your keeping, to prepare it as you wish, but do not forget, my child, that you must prepare everything from here. Beyond, there is only the rest or the condemnation of hell. What do you want the Lord to give you? How do you want Him to meet you? So be you too for your brother, as you want the Lord to be. If you were with love, with love He will be too. If you were welcoming with all your heart, so will the Lord be too. If you gave a loving smile, so will He receive you too. But if you judged your brother and did not help him, if you hated him or were his enemy in secret, if you confronted your neighbour with envy and drove away the child of the Lord, the neighbour of the Lord, if you were discontented and slandered unjustly, if you were proud, if you tempted the Lord and were not with a pure and bowed heart, oh, my child, so will the Lord receive you too. You toil a whole life for the body and you struggle to build your happiness, but you forget, my child, that all that is for the body is not for you. All that you toil for the body is not yours, you have no share in this toil. What you give as a gift for your soul, only that is truly your share. And behold, the word of the holy Scripture is being fulfilled: «He who sows sparingly will reap sparingly; and he who sows bountifully will reap bountifully», for the Lord loves the one who gives willingly. Let none of you seek his own benefit, but serve one another with love, so that you may have a share in your toil.

My child, if you want to have a house, make yourself a house in heaven and adorn it as you please, so that you may have a house truly. Give the Lord all that you have, so that He may work with you and with all that is yours, for the benefit of your soul, but do not work without the Lord or as you wish, for your thoughts are not like the thoughts of the Lord, and then it would no longer be done according to His will, but you would bend Him to do your will; and when you go to Him, He will say to you thus: “Let your will be done, son. You worked for the earth, let it be as you wished. You worked for heaven, let it be as you wished”.

My child, if the Lord asks a hand of you, He asks what is His, but you no longer want to give it to Him. You have made yourself master over the Lord’s thing and you have passed over the Lord, and as Lucifer fell from heaven for this reason, do you too want to fall the same way? This pain is too heavy, it is to be wept over. Oh, do not defy the Lord any more, for His rebuke would be eternal, whoever you may be, and why weep forever when you can be happy with those who have always said: “Lord, I am Yours with all that You have given me; do with me what You will, let Your will be done, and not mine. Amen”. Say you too as the Lord Jesus said when He was in the face of death, and you have life before you; say thus: “Lord, let Your will be done, and not mine”. Say so, as those who have heaven for inheritance.

My beloved children, do not be wicked, do not be opposers, do not spoil the work of the Lord, do not bring forth bad fruit, so that you may not be put to the left on that day. You know well that the wheat grows together with the tares until the harvest. Watch over yourselves with all care, so that you may not be bad fruit and be thrown out of the granary. Always ask yourselves the question in all that you do, in all that you live: “Lord, Lord, is my speech, my thought, my word, my behaviour, my dress, my step, my love, is the course of my life according to Your will?” .

I urge you, children, in the name of the Lord, so that you may always make this examination, I urge you to read every day at least one page of the teachings of the holy Scripture, and you will feel the straightening of your steps. See how beautifully the Holy Spirit teaches us, Who passed from John to us through his first epistle. So I urge you: love one another with a pure heart, for only so can you be called sons of the Lord. Take example from the humblest, from the meekest, from the most patient, wisest and most temperate among you. Cherish such ones with all zeal, for through such ones the Lord teaches you how you must all be, one dough. Love one another. Love your shepherds, as ones whom the Lord has placed and anointed over you and for you. Do not do what Lucifer did, and be humble, so that you may not fall from heaven. Be submissive to those who are greater, and humble yourselves as before the Lord, so that you may not lose the Lord. Let those who are great in spirit be your guides.

Make prayers for one another. Pray to all the saints, with prostrations down to the ground, showing by this that you are partakers of the passions of the Lord and of the resurrection from the dead. Long for the Lord, for He longs much for you. Taste Him, and you will see how sweet and wonderful He is. At every moment seek to have His face before you, His love; seek to clothe yourselves with His shirt, with His life, and always say: “Glory to You, Lord!”.

The life of the Lord in you is paradise. Fight for this paradise, for I tell you with great pain that you do not live your life according to the rule of the Lord, and know that the crooked road strays from the straight path and no longer leads to the good haven. You know that nothing defiled will enter paradise. Oh, if only you had at least a pure heart, but in your heart you have one thing, and in your mouth, again, another. Behold, you do not have a pure heart. The Lord knows each one of you as you are, and He weeps, because He will come. What will He do with you then? Do you ask yourself that?

Oh, my children, you know that the Lord cannot have fellowship with the cunning heart, with the heart that is proud. He seeks humbleness and self-denial. Keep your heads bowed, so that the Lord may not leave you, your life, your house. The Lord leaves you, and you do not realise that you no longer have Him, because He does not stay in the cunning or lying or proud soul. Watch that you are not so, for that is why divisions arise among you. Watch with trembling. The Lord sees everything, He knows all that you have in your heart, for the Spirit of the Lord is not like your spirit. Before you think, He knows your thought. Then, how can you not have fear? Pray and say: “Help me, Lord, to feel Your absence when my behaviour and the impurity of my heart drive You out of me, and help me to call You again, to open to You again, and You to come again into my life, to lead it according to Your will”. Examine where you are going and always say: “How will the Lord find me and what will He tell me? What will I answer Him?”. Work peace and repentance and a pure heart, for I tell you that however many sins you may have, if you are with a pure and bowed heart, many of them will be forgiven you. Work mercy on earth, for mercy overcomes judgment.

Oh, my child, perhaps you think that you receive your brother into your house. No. It is the Lord you receive. Or when you say: “Stay there, brother, in a corner”, you say it to the Lord. When you sadden your brother, you sadden the Lord. When you judge the neighbour of the Lord, when you speak ill of him, when you slander him and hate him, you do all these to the Lord. You say it is not so. It is so, my child. Remember the parable of the woman who dreamed that the Lord would come to her the next day, and she waited for Him all day, driving away the hungry, the poor and the sick, who had come to her gate that day, saying that she was busy, that she was waiting for the Lord, and, going to bed late, upset, she dreamed again of the Lord, that He was weeping with sobs because she had not wanted to receive Him. And when the woman said to Him: “Lord, I waited for You all day and You did not come”, the Lord told her that three times He had come, and she had not received Him, and then He left her the weeping, and He went to other houses, where they received Him with love. Nor do you receive the Lord, my child, for when He calls to you and teaches you to be attentive at the service, at the homily, at His voice of teaching, you fidget, you talk, you go out of the church and you do not listen to the Lord and you dishonour Him and you do not give Him all your attention. Oh, if only you knew Who God is and how He is! He is a fire that consumes all the dry things in His path. He has eyes like a flame of fire, and He is surrounded by light and by saints and by cherubim and by seraphim. If you saw, child, what is before the altar during the holy services, you would be struck still and you would stand terrified, but you stand indifferent before Him, before Whose face everything melts from His great glory. And you, good child, who stand with attention and with fear before the Lord, why do you not help your brother who sits indifferent? Why do you not tell him: “Brother, take heed with fear and with trembling, for the Lord is before us and He is sacrificing Himself now for us”? Oh, I know that you cannot tell him, for your disobedient brother gets angry with you, and then becomes your enemy, and says: “Who are you to teach me?”.

My dears, the Lord has begged you and has cried out to you from heaven to take care of the children. Keep the child near you, awaken his attention. But you do not want to do what the Lord teaches you and you do not receive the Lord, just as Herod did not receive Him either. And just as Herod told the magi with a cunning thought to send him word too, so that he might serve Christ, so too the Christians of today; they say so, but they do not truly serve the Lord, to listen to Him and to follow Him as He says. When the Lord asks you about the children, what will you answer Him? What kind of ears of wheat will you bring to the Lord? When you quarrel in front of them, when the children hear words that are not weighed, not seasoned with salt, when the children see your unseemly behaviour in the house, what are the children to learn from you? When you let them play as they please, without watching over them, how are these children to grow as the fruit of the Lord? At this thought, be terrified and do not stay indifferent. Take care of your children with much gentleness, with much wisdom, so that you may win them for the Lord. When you have a free moment, do not let it pass empty, for that moment will bear witness against you. Sing songs of glory. Urge the children towards spiritual works and raise them as Isaac was, David, as the Mother of God was, as the Lord was, for He too was a child, and He grew as your children of today ought to grow, as the martyr Philothea grew. Show them the way to heaven and teach them how to love the Lord, how to understand Him, how to know Him, for it is not enough for the child to kneel beside you at the reading of the prayer and think of play, or for you to talk with the Lord in prayer while he stays outside. You will be asked by the Lord about your children. Take care of them. Unite them with the Lord.

Christian, do not let evil go forward. Do not leave even the one weaker than you. Take him with gentleness. And if you cannot correct him, call on the Lord to correct him, and take care of yourself, so that he does not kill your spirit too. And what you cannot do, leave in the care of the Lord, and He will not delay with His help.

Be humble, so that the Lord may give you grace. Cleave to the Lord, and He will cleave to you. Have the same thought, the same love, the same mind, all of you. Do not be proud, but with much humbleness count your brother more worthy of honour than yourselves, and so you will be in love, for when you scold your brother, then you think yourself better and more righteous than he, and the Lord will not delay to humble you. The Lord took the form of a servant before us. So you too, be humble, but not with an appearance that deceives, but with the heart, for the Lord stands and works among you. Look at me, how I stay and suffer for you, for I have put my whole life in your service, with all love, but you all seek your own things, and not the things of God.

Turn towards the will of the Lord and towards holiness, so that He may clothe you with power from on high and the Lord may fulfil His plan with you. Rejoice unceasingly in the name of the Lord and keep His commandments, for only in the one who keeps His law is His love, in truth.

Love one another, for love is from God, and everyone who loves with a pure and holy love is born from heaven, is born of God. He who does not love does not have God, for God is love. He loved us first, and now we too are bound to love one another.

He who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

Love is above all virtues, above all heights. It is the holy mountain.

May the Lord bring down peace and grace upon you, and may He not leave you in any way. You are my fruit, and I will not leave you orphans, and again I will be with you, and we will be with the Lord and with the new work which is coming on earth. Amen.
