DAILY MESSAGE OF THE GLORIFIED CHRIST JESUS, TRANSMITTED IN THE CITY OF FATIMA, PORTUGAL, TO THE VISIONARY FRIAR ELÍAS DEL SAGRADO CORAZÓN DE JESÚS
Second Series of Poems
First poem of a soul to the Sacred and Blessed Heart of Jesus
Oh, Jesus!
sometimes it is difficult to remain
here, in this world,
amidst so many trials and temptations.
Sometimes, Lord,
I feel that I will not be able to reach You
because my own miseries
make me suddenly sink.
From all of that, save me, Lord,
I do not want to offend Your Heart
with all of that which sometimes
seems to have its own life inside of me.
Submerge me, Lord,
in the Ocean of your Mercy
because I know that You will purify me
of all of my martyrdoms and condemnations
as many times as necessary.
Make disappear, dear Jesus,
that executioner that dwells in me,
that judges me, that frightens me,
and puts me in a place with no way out.
Help me, Jesus,
to be what you so much hope for.
May I always be able to feel
thirst for You and for Your Presence,
so that, someday, my whole being
may learn to unite with You.
Dear Jesus,
empty me of my human condition,
clean my lower consciousness of so many defects
and, finally, Lord, place Your Peace
where I am still not be able to have it.
Because after all this inner struggle
I know that You will triumph and make me worthy
of being able to be close to You, forever,
serving You for all eternity.
Amen.
I thank you for keeping the words of this soul in your hearts!
Who blesses you,
Your Master, Christ Jesus
