Perfect Love
Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone-
To have a deep soul relationship with another-
Be loved thoroughly, and exclusively.
But God, to a Christian, says:
I want you to be satisfied, fulfilled, and content
With being loved by Me alone-
With giving yourself totally and unreservedly to Me-
With having an intensely personal and unique relationship
With Me alone.
Discovering that only in Me is your satisfaction to be found,
Will you be capable of the best human relationship
That I have planned for you.
I want you to be united with another after you are united with Me-
Exclusive of anyone or anything else,
Exclusive of any other desires or longings.
I want you to stop planning, stop wishing,
And allow Me to give you the most thrilling plan existing-
One that you cannot imagine.
I want you to have the best-
Please allow Me to bring it to you.
You just keep watching Me, trusting Me-
Keep experiencing the satisfaction that I am.
Keep listening and learning the things I tell you.
You just wait.
That’s all.
Don’t be anxious.
Don’t worry.
Don’t look around at the things
Others have gotten or that I’ve given them.
Don’t look at the things you think you want.
You just keep looking off and up to Me,
Or you’ll miss what I want to show you.
And then, when you’re ready, I’ll surprise you with a love
Far more wonderful than any you would dream of.
You see, until you are ready and until the one I have for you is ready,
(I am working even at this moment to have both of you ready at the same time),
Until you are both satisfied exclusively with Me and the life I prepared for you,
You won’t be able to experience the love that exemplifies your relationship with me.
And this is the perfect love.
And dear one, I want you to have the most wonderful love.
I want you to see in the flesh a picture of your relationship with Me,
And to enjoy materially and concretely the everlasting union of beauty, perfection, and love
That I offer you with Myself.
Know that I love you utterly.
I am God.
Believe and be satisfied.

Pundasyon
Kalbaryo. Dini-demolish na ang pinagpagurang bahay. Sa mismong lupang kinatitirikan ay may itatayong bago. Bahay na nakokontrol na nila. Bahay na ang loob at labas ay nababantayan na ng mga nanlilisik na mga mata.
Umalis na ang ilaw ng tahanan. Masyado ng madilim. Naroon pa rin sa loob ang mga anak. Mga anak na may pinaninindigang prinsipyo. Mga natirang anak na nananatiling lumalaban. Nakahawak sa mga poste. Nakita ko ang isa kong kapatid na babae na nagbabalak bumitaw. Sinigawan ko siya pero di niya ko naririnig —— o wala na kong lakas para lakasan pa ang pagsigaw. Inulit ko. Sumigaw ako pero sadyang wala ng boses na lumalabas. Sumuko na ang boses ko.
Bumitaw siya. Gumigewang na ang sinisirang bahay. Kulang na sa pundasyon. May pumapatak na’ng dugo at luha sa naghihinagalong sahig. Napapikit ako.
Lupon ng mga Bulag, Pipi at Tanga
Tinulak nila kami sa malalim na hukay na sila mismo ang gumawa. Sugatan kaming napasalampak. Pilit kaming bumabangon. Gusto naming makawala pero nagbigay sila ng “rule” na kailangang nakaposas ang mga kamay at paa. Masyado na raw kasi kaming naging “sutil”. Hindi na raw nila kami kailangan. Pilit nila kaming inililibing. Tinatapunan ng lupa na pumupuwing sa aming mga paningin. Sumisigaw kami pero binusalan nila ang aming mga bibig. Ang tangi na lamang naming nagagawa ay ang umilag sa mga pala-palang lupa na itinatapon sa amin. Wala kaming ginawang masama. Naramdaman lang namin na hindi tama ang dati na naming ginagawa. Ginagawa ang kanilang mga ipinapagawa. Sa paghahanap sa tuwirang tama ay hindi namin naalintana na nakalabas na pala kami sa mala-kulungan ng baboy na tirahang ibinigay sa amin. Tirahang kulungan. Dapat daw ay natuto kaming lumugar. Oo. Natuto kami. Kaya nga isinusuka na namin ang mala-kaning baboy na sistema kasi nga, natuto kaming harapin ang tama. Talikuran ang sistemang panis at mabaho. Sistemang hindi na namin kayang masikmura pa. Sistemang “tama” para sa kanila pero mali para sa lahat. Sistemang punit at maraming butas. Sistemang maraming bura kasi nga, hindi maganda.
“I held her close to me with my eyes closed, wondering if anything in my life had ever been this perfect and knowing at the same time that it hadn’t. I was in love, and the feeling was even more wonderful than I ever imagined it could be.”
