Jesus said: “My people, you can have arid land next to a waterfalls, but if the water is not brought to the land, it is hard for anything to grow. Even in your own yards, until the rains come, it is hard for things to green up for spring. Bringing water to the ground, is similar to bringing My grace into a soul. If a soul is living in mortal sin, that soul is dead spiritually. But if that soul comes to Me in Confession, then I can forgive that person, and bring life back to the soul with My grace. Grace for the soul is like rain is for the soil. Grace gives life to the soul, and rain gives life to the vegetation. I am the Resurrection and the life, and I bring life to My faithful, and I restore life in the ground for nature. I bring abundant life to this world, as I offer salvation to everyone, including the Gentiles.”
Jesus said: “My people, every time you take My Eucharist at the Mass, you are sharing My ‘Living water’ that will bring you eternal life. Man cannot live on bread alone from the earth, but you can live forever if you eat the Manna of My consecrated Host. You could even survive on only Holy Communion because some of the saints have done this. You are still celebrating My Resurrection when I conquered sin and death. Death could not contain the Son of Man, and all of My faithful are promised to be resurrected at the last judgment. This hope of eternal life with Me in heaven is what drives every Christian to be faithful to My Commandments, and love Me and his or her neighbor. You are rejoicing in My gift of Myself, and the promise of eternal life to those who eat My Body and drink My Blood.”
