You
are only an
instrument.
Not
yours to decide how
or when or where to act. I
plan all that.
Make
yourself very fit to do My work. All that hinders your activity
must be
cured.
Mine is the Cross
on which the burdens of the world are laid.
How
foolish is any one of My disciples who seek to bear his own burdens,
when there is only one place for
them - My Cross.
It is like a weary
man on a hot and dusty road, bearing a heavy load,
when all plans have been made
for its carriage. The road, the scenery,
flowers, beauty-around all are lost.
But, My children, you may think I did
say, "Take up your cross daily and follow Me."
Yes, but the cross
given to each one of you is only a cross provided on
which you can crucify the
self of yours. The self
that hinders progress and Joy,
and prevents the flow through
your being of My invigorating Life and
Spirit.
Listen to Me, love
Me, joy in Me,
Rejoice!

Portugal comments:
The
only "
Star of the Show" was,
is and
must
always be God.
The moment man wants to be
the protagonist of any work or deed,
it is
doomed to fail just as the Globalization effort will, first, and
then the falsification of the Second Coming of Christ.
As we have
said before - I cannot even claim the credit for my Fiat to God when He
said:
Leave all behind and follow me.
It was only through His Grace,
and through
no merit of my own,
that I said "Yes".
