Lukewarm souls
Today bring to Me souls who have become lukewarm, and immerse
them in the abyss of My mercy. These souls wound My Heart most
painfully. My soul suffered the most dreadful loathing in the
Garden of Olives because of lukewarm souls. They were the reason
I cried out: "Father, take this cup away from Me, if it
be Your will." For them, the last hope of salvation is
to flee to My mercy.
Most compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I bring
lukewarm souls into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart.
In this fire of Your pure love let these tepid souls, who, like
corpses, filled You with such deep loathing, be once again set
aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence
of Your mercy and draw them into the very ardor of Your love;
and bestow upon them the gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond
Your power.
Fire and ice cannot be joined;
Either the fire dies, or the ice melts.
But by Your mercy, O God,
You can make up for all that is lacking.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls,
who are nonetheless enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart
of Jesus. Father of Mercy, I beg You by the bitter Passion of
Your son and by His three-hour agony on the Cross: Let them,
too, glorify the abyss of Your mercy...Amen.
