Teaching "Lent" 2-6-81
This Teaching says,
"Anything we do for the good of our Soul, no matter
how much trouble, effort or work it involves, pays
tremendous dividends. We must see these dividends as
Graces from God for the benefit of our Soul."
TEACHING DELIVERED THROUGH FRANCES M. KLUG
ON FEBRUARY 6,1981
"LENT"
"This time of remembering The Sacrifice of
God Himself for the good of mankind must always
remain in man's mind and man's actions. A time must
be set aside to review one's life, keeping in mind that
the purpose of life is to return one's Soul to God.
This Lent should be made special, based on the direct
Teaching of God and His Saints through The Miracle
Of Saint Joseph.
So many people are not using Lent for the full
purpose it should be used and that is to prepare the
Soul to be in a State of Grace and become pure through
reparation in acts of self-denial and penance. Self-denial
and penance are not that horrible to endure or
perform when the intention is for the benefit of the Soul.
Anything we do for the good of our Soul, no matter
how much trouble, effort or work it involves, pays
tremendous dividends. We must see these dividends as
Graces from God for the benefit of our Soul.
This Lent should not pass in an ordinary way. It
should not hold just the ceremonies prescribed by certain
men in Holy Mother Church. We should each make the
extra effort to go above and beyond what men say is a
form of passing through Lent, that will benefit the Soul.
If walking through life and making amends for our
impurities in such a general form is adequate for the
benefit of our Souls, how come some men and women
become great Saints, and others we never hear of? Did
not the ones who performed beyond the normal degrees
of sacrifice, penance, work, standards, truths, beliefs,
become recognized for what they did? We all like to
believe that our loved ones are Saints, but we must begin
to see ourselves as working to become a Saint, not just
to have the hopes of being a Saint, but working at this
in every thought, word, deed and action we make, we
have, we do, we are involved in and with.
It is so ridiculous for us to accept less when God
offers the Ultimate for us and to us. He does not
distinguish one man from the other and say, 'Now only
you, and you, and you, will become a Saint.' He would
be showing partiality. This is not His Way. He is a
Just God. He is a Merciful God. He is a Loving God.
He is a God of Great Wisdom.
There is not one of us here who cannot one day
become a Great Saint."
