My people, I call you each by name. You are my beloved. I give you My Spirit and I call you to be one in Me. I surround you with my love. You are a flower in My garden. Your petals are falling one by one but your seed remains. I call you to go forth and bear great fruit. "Unless the grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies it remains just a grain of wheat but if it dies it will provide much fruit. The man who loves his life loses it, while the man who hates his life in this world preserves it to life eternal" (Jn 12:24-25).
