Translation from Spanish
I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Man asks for much but gives little. He makes demands but is unwilling to give. He is quick to receive, but he struggles to open his hand when he must give without anything in return.
He likes doing business; he likes to gain an advantage when the laws are in his favor. He is quick to pressure his neighbor when the rules are in his favor, but slow to fulfill his own obligations, unless he feels the force of justice bearing down on his shoulder.
He speaks harshly to his neighbor, and just as he speaks to his neighbor, so he speaks to Me, the almighty God. He comes full of airs and vanity, as if I owed him a favor. He struts like a proud rooster, as though it were an honor to hear his prayers.
Man has forgotten that he is dust and to dust he will return, as I have said.
Whoever clings to his tent will find it left desolate; and whoever gives up his tent out of love for My name, whoever offers a sacrifice of love worthy of My name—I will lift him from the dust into the light.
My name is great, and creation bows before My majesty, but man thinks he is important, even though all his days are numbered before My eternal mirror.
The carnal man refuses to give and therefore will not receive, because I do not reward carnality I reward the one who earnestly seeks Me, the only God, full of grace and generosity.
Sacrifice requires love, and love comes from the One who is made of love: the omnipotent and unfathomable God.
The one who does not give will not receive. The one who does not ask will not be answered. The one who does not seek will not find. The door will not be opened to the one who does not knock. From the one who has nothing and does not ask, even what he thinks he has—as though it were his own—will be taken away.
Little ones, you must understand whom you are dealing with. You must understand who I am.
Honor God. Honor the One to whom honor is due. Let all creation honor God!
Amen.
[Genesis 3:19] In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
[Exodus 3:6] Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.
[Luke 6:38] Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
