My Heart a Rose of Fire

Week 19 of the Calendar Year

3rd July 2024

Praying to the Magdalene Rose, I heard Christ saying to me, ‘Give me your heart.’ I said, ‘Christ, beloved, how can you ask for my heart when I have already given you my heart? When my heart already belongs to you, lives in your sacred heart?’ With a fire burning in my body, then I heard Christ ask me, ‘What do you see?” I said, ‘I see a rose on fire in my heart, and with every dancing flame, the scent of love is released in me.’ I asked Christ, what do you see? He said, ‘I see the fire of my love and the blossoming of my rose in you. I see myself in you. I see all that I am in you…. There is a rose blossoming in my heart and her name is love.’ Fire.

Then I saw Christ's fire of love burning and blossoming in me. I said, ‘I see myself in the mirror of your love, burning and blossoming as a rose of fire. I see your love burning in me…. I see that I have become one with you.’ I asked, ‘What do you see?’ and Christ said, ‘I see myself in the mirror of your love as my own self. Love on fire, the rose blossoming with love. I see myself in you. We are one.’
