St. Thomas Aquinas

St. Thomas Aquinas says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“Once again I have come to help you understand the spirit of a person as opposed to his physical properties. Whatever a person accepts in his heart becomes part of his spirit. If he accepts untruths, then he has a lying spirit; that is to say, truth is compromised as part of his being. Let me return once again to the analogy of fine wine. Many ingredients combine to make up its bouquet. In a person, many factors combine to comprise the spirit, such as moral decisions, personality traits and events in the person's life.”

“This is different from the soul which is the reflection of the person's stance before God in judgment. The soul is good or evil depending on the person's execution of Holy Love. Even the good soul may have faults, but is still trying to be purified in Holy Love.”

“In this same sense, there is good wine and bad wine. But the bouquet distinguishes each wine apart from the other. The spirit of a person reflects not the state of his soul, but what the person accepts in his heart as worthy.”

“Our Mother thanks you for last night, and looks with eagerness to your birthday and Her next midnight visit.”
