Notebook 53 True Life in God 549 ah, My child, I shall teach you all by My Purifying Fire; wait and you shall see; Hear Me now and write, My child: not long ago most of the nations of the world never believed that the enemy, the Red Dragon, would lose its power in Russia so suddenly; Vassula, if your sister Russia rebelled against Me, it came through the sins of the world and its crimes; tyranny comes from below; But how did her children feel, those martyrs who belonged to You? how can I describe what her children suffered, to what can I compare them, daughter? all Heaven mourned for her children; her sons laid helpless, but who was there around them to mourn for them? was there anyone strong enough among them to pierce the Dragon through? not when their skins were shrunken against their bones; her children went begging for Bread, oppressed by the enemy, they collapsed under their burden; if they left in secrecy to take refuge in My Arms, they would be punished severely; they were not allowed to show their zeal for Me; their pursuers were swifter than vipers eyeing each step they took, and had they any suspicions that The Book of Life would be hidden under their mattress, My children would be harassed, tracked, then captured; ah daughter, My Eyes wept ceaselessly to see this nation reduced to silence by the sword; priests and prophets were made prisoners and were forced to dwell in darkness; many of them were slaughtered pitilessly before My very Eyes; – this nation who at one time honoured Me and praised Me openly, radiant as a sapphire, a Citadel of delights, was reduced into a waterless country of drought, by the sins and crimes of the world; I tell you, daughter, Russia, your sister, has not yet shown you what she will accomplish in My Name; the Day of Festival has yet to come and how I wish it were here already! pray, pray for this Glorious Day; September 9, 1991 My Jesus? I Am; love Me, Vassula, it appeases the Father’s wrath on this generation; I have prayed for you, My little one, to the Father to liberate you of “the thorn” you took from Me; 1 ... Lord confirm please what I have come to hear from You by giving me a passage from Scriptures. (I open the Holy Bible at random and my finger goes on to Lk. 22:42. It reads:) “Father, he said, if you are willing, take this cup away from me. Nevertheless, let Your will be done, not mine.” be blessed, I shall guide you; September 11, 1991 Lord, I look up at the heavens and search for heavenly things; I search Your Holy Face to feel Peace and be able to rejoice; 1 I had offered Jesus to take upon me this “thorn” from Him (June 18, 1991). It meant one thorn less on Jesus. “The thorn” that Jesus talks about is referred in a message dated June 18, 1991. This thorn was given to Jesus by a loved one who actively persecutes the Message. Satan confused him and now uses him.
