God is the Sower

Saint Padre Pio appears in a beautiful light and says:

“In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 

Beloved of Christ, pray fervently for peace! Implore peace from Heaven. God is the Sower who sows the seed of love and grace upon all hearts, and in doing so, He does not look to see whether you have a worthy heart or not. He sows! He sows it upon hearts that open up and become good soil, and He also sows His seed upon hearts hardened by sin—hearts that are as hard as the ground along a path or have even become like rock. He even sows His seed upon hearts surrounded by thorns and thistles. God sows, and you decide whether to open your heart to this seed of God’s love and grace. But God sows! Will you accept His grace and love? 

The holiness and teaching of the Church, in which the Lord lives and works, stand above all earthly ideologies. These ideologies, made by human hands, do not endure into eternity: they all crumble to dust! Therefore, let the seed of God’s love and grace blossom in your hearts, and free your hearts from the mire of sin, which only hardens them. The greatest love that Jesus has given you is the Sacrament of Reconciliation with Him! It takes place in the confessional. There you will also find me, because I, too, love you dearly and pray for you! No matter what lies ahead: Pray, implore peace, open your hearts, and look to Jesus—not to any ideologues who will crumble to dust and only lead people astray. Trust in Jesus and His Word!”

Saint Padre Pio takes his leave, and we catch a lovely scent of roses and incense. He will bless us later, together with the priest.
