68 God’s Blue Book<br />

November 10, 1993 Funeral at St. Lawrence<br />

I Come First, Child<br />

Before Mass<br />

R.I was at church to play the organ at a family funeral. It was a<br />

new organ for me and I had not yet practiced two songs. He told<br />

me to come to Him and forget the music. I was ashamed that I<br />

wanted to put the music before Him. He said, “When I call, you<br />

come.”<br />

Come to Me! Stop it, I tell you. Don’t run amok. I want to be<br />

alone with you and you are to come and be with Me. I love you with<br />

such intensity. Sit awhile with Me and let Me fill your soul. In this<br />

silence your heart is at unrest. You are busy in silence. What a sad<br />

heart! I am here and you are busy. I want you to put Me first, to put<br />

aside your music. This is your time with Me. “Well,” you say, “Who<br />

cares? The Lord calls me now. For You, Lord, I would drop everything<br />

and come and run.” That is the love I bid you to share with<br />

Me! My calling you, your responding without the slightest hesitation.<br />

Do you know now what I want? I want your love committed to<br />

Me first, last and always. When I call you, come, not in a little while,<br />

but right away and bid My call! I can make the heavens fall from the<br />

sky if I choose. Would you make Him Who has all the power wait<br />

on you when He calls? I am calling you now to life with Me. I fill<br />

your troubled soul and you see things from My perspective and not<br />

your own. I have all the power. What do you have to worry for? I<br />

can make it work or not work. I must be first. You must harken to<br />

My call and surrender everything to Me. Surrender this work to Me<br />

and let Me do it. Do you trust, child, or do you think you are in control?<br />

I want your time now. You are telling Me that I am first. Do not<br />

hold on to anything when I call. I come and you must come when I<br />

beckon you. You have brought Me much joy because you came. I<br />

love you so. I want so much to have time alone in front <strong>of</strong> the tabernacle<br />

with you. You crave this time now but you tell yourself you<br />

must be focused on something else.<br />

I come first, child—first, last and always. Drop your cares and<br />

run to Me when I call thee. Oh little one, make My heart happy with<br />

you. Surrender totally to Me. Trust and let Me play the Mass. You<br />

needn’t fret and fume. I am God and I dwell in you. You move about<br />

but I operate you when you surrender. I want this surrender. Let go<br />

<strong>of</strong> the last songs and see if I do them. Be with Me now, little one, in<br />

My house, the house <strong>of</strong> your youth. Many memories are here for<br />

you. Feel your past and come to Me and share your heart.<br />

I love you. Oh, I love you. We are alone here. Come in<br />

Communion with Me. Let all go and be with Me!
