Many years ago, a Jewish person that people recognized as Jesus, was praying in the desert, on top of a mountain.  A spirit talked to him and said to him, “ If you are truly with God, fly down from here...the angels will protect you.” 

            The man Jesus answered him, saying, “Go to the devil, you!”

            Then another offer came: “Love me, pray for me, adore me, and I will give you everything...tons of money, if you truly love me.” (Isn’t this like some people are saying today?)

            Don’t forget this part: “Go to hell, you devil!” was the reply.  “My Father is more important than anyone.  Respect your Father.  Go to the devil!”  And he disappeared.

            Now, what is more fascinating today is this:  There was a country at that time called Greece.  A lot of money was devoted to women; they were treated like angels but were half naked.  The Greeks were suckers.  They slept with women all they wanted and yet they called them angels.  It’s the same today.  A woman is important because she’s beautiful or has the greatest body.  Then the Greeks became angry with a man called Paul because he was tough on people about God.  People got angry because they couldn’t have fun anymore with women who were going to pray. Then Paul was asked to speak and pray for all of them.  The Greeks had said Paul was weak and they wanted to get rid of him.  They tried to make a deal with him.  He was to go to a high place to preach to the crowds to change their lives.  In their minds, the women were sure that they could tempt Paul.  Then they would really be able to laugh at him.  (Isn’t this like some women of today who are half naked and recognize they are so, because then you will tell her she is beautiful and then you can sleep with her?) It is like today, when the woman can feel so important in her nakedness.  Many years ago, the women were adored as the sun, the moon and nature, becoming goddesses even. 

            So Paul said, “Women, don’t you know who I am?  I learn from your heart, not by looks and nakedness.  If you truly knew how to be loved from the heart, you would cry because someone really loves you from the heart.  I believe in you.  But it is not like the devil who loves you because of your nakedness.  You will never be happy or respected this way.  I am here to love and respect you.”

            No one realized that Paul was the first saint who spoke the truth when he said, “Women, I am weak.  Please protect me.”  The Greek women began to change their lives to protect him because they realized that someone truly loved them.  The Spirit was leading them.

            Women...respect your children and your children can be with the Spirit by love.  You can share your love with everyone and make changes.  Men will too often lie to use you because of their weaknesses.  Men must learn to respect and protect the children and give love from their hearts because they truly know love from someone and give love to someone.  To be humble is very saintly.  Pride is to forget that we are in love.  We will never be happy with anyone like this.  Become a virgin with your heart because you are in love from the heart. 

Thank you my sons and daughters.  I love you,
