She must not refuse His visit, because, though she may save her soul, her life 9 Introduction neither here nor hereafter will be so sweet as if she allows Jesus to take full possession of her and this He will surely do if she will only open the door to Him at His loving call. b JESUS, MY FRIEND JESUS AND THE SOUL PART I JESUS, MY FRIEND I. P U S My child, I have something to say to thee. I am so glad thou hast admitted Me into thy little soul, where I can tell thee all My secrets, and where I can teach thee how to love and serve Me more fervently. I wish thee to give Me thy confidence, and then I will help thee in all thy necessities indeed, in the smallest things thou askest of Me. I3 Jesus and the Soul The Soul Jesus, I am glad Thou hast come to me, and I welcome Thee most lovingly. How I wish Thou couldst always be with me Yet, though Thou art ever present, my thoughts stray far from Thee temptations trouble me duties distract and sorrows weary me. But I know now that I can place these all before Thee, and whilst Thou art listening, Thou wilt give me Thy Gmpathy, Thy grace, and Thy tenderest love. How glad I am to have found such a Friend Oh, feed my soul with Thy spiritual Presence, that I may ever love Thee, sweet Lord, and have light and grace to do Thy blessed Will. Mary, keep Him ever with me I4 Jesus, my Friend My Jesus, mercy. 100 days indulgence. Jesus Yes, I understand thee quite well, My child. I know how difficult it is to separate thyself from the world and to hearken to Me but this thou wilt be able to do with perfect ease if thou wilt but let Me act and think for thee. I know that thou hast many duties to perform, and that thy mind cannot always be centred on Me. But If thou wilt offer Me thy daily actions, thou wilt then, indeed, be thinking of Me, and, what is better still, proving thy love for Me. Wilt thou, therefore, offer to Me thy whole life, all that I5 Jesus and the Soul thou sayest and doest, and all that thou wouldst like to do in order to please Me In a word, wilt thou give M thy whole self Then I shall have complete command over thee, and thou wilt have nothing to fear. The Soul Jesus, I will do this willingly. From this hour I give Thee my heart to keep for ever, and I am so anxious that it shall be entirely Thine that I beg Thee to lock it up in the Tabernacle with Thee, so that Thou canst watch over it morning and night, and let the Angels whisper to Thee its tender pleading for mercy, pardon, and grace. Mary, give now my heart to 16.
