In order to give you real happiness in this life and in the next, I want you to do what I am suggesting to you in this light. The time is propitious, do not lose this love which is being offered to your hearts so tangibly. I ask everyone to take part in the Holy Mass according to the liturgy; this pleases Me greatly! Later on I will suggest some short prayers to you, but I do not want to overburden you! The most important thing will be to honour Me as I told you, by establishing a feast in My honour and serving Me with the simplicity of true children of your God, Father, Creator and Saviour of the human race.
Here is another proof of My fatherly love for men. My children, I will not speak to you about the whole greatness of My infinite love, because you have only to open the holy books, to look at the crucifix, the tabernacle and the Blessed Sacrament, to realize the extent to which I have loved you!
Nevertheless, in order to show you that you need to satisfy My will for you and to make Me better known and loved, I wish, before ending these words, which only set out the basis of My work of love among men, to point out to you some of the innumerable proofs of My love for you!
As long as man does not live in the truth, he cannot taste real freedom. You, My children, think you have joy and peace, you who are outside the true law, for obedience to which I created you. But deep in your hearts you feel that you have neither true peace not true joy and that you do not enjoy the true freedom of the One Who created you and is your God and Father!
But you, who abide in the true law, or rather, who have promised to follow the law that I gave you to ensure your salvation, have let vice lead you into evil. You have strayed from the law by behaving badly. Do you think you are happy? No. you feel that your hearts are not at ease. Do you suppose that, looking for pleasure and other human joys, your hearts will finally be satisfied? No. Let Me tell you, you will never feel truly free nor truly happy until you recognize Me as your Father and submit to My yoke, to be true children of God, your Father.
Why? Because I created you for a single purpose, to know Me, love Me and serve Me, as a simple and trusting child serves its father!
Reflection

Father tells us that unless we live in the truth we will not taste real freedom. A packed statement. We were made for freedom. Not freedom as in, “I can do whatever I want and without limitations”, but as in, “I am free do do what I was created for and no one or no thing has the right to infringe on that freedom. “
As in the canticle of Zaccariah, “…free to worship God without fear. “ And yet we can not taste this freedom without truth. Acceptance of truth is acceptance of the Father as His child, since truth is the person of Jesus Christ, His Son, who the Father sent to make us His children.
Jesus said the law was made for man and not man for law. And He said that love of God and then love of neighbor were the greatest commandments. If these laws were given for man, then they are for our good, not for the purpose of restraint. There is a natural order to life, called the natural law; in essence; the way God created things to be. Therefore, to love Him is in itself to our good, and to our benefit.
So when Father says that He created man for a single purpose, to know, love and serve Him as a simple trusting child serves his father, then this is for our good as He made us this way, and to live in His truth, His law gives us peace, and joy and fulfillment, since it is simply fulfilling the natural law for which we were created.
And to that end He has asked for a Feast Day in His honor as the Father of All Mankind
