Part IV – The Newness of Life

Stefania Caterina’s words in her book “Rewriting History – In the Mind of God”[1]:

The life we receive from God is therefore our true wealth, which enables us to overcome earthly obstacles as we live as children of God. I conclude this chapter with a message of the Holy Spirit of 16 January 1999, which highlights the importance and the dignity of our life.

“It is important that you understand what your life is. What is a life? What is its purpose, meaning and dignity? What is the truth of one’s life? Most people tend to view their existence egoistically, as something that belongs exclusively to them. They consider themselves as the absolute masters of their life and believe they can dispose of it as they please, according to their often impure desires and, certainly, according to their own will.

God would not have needed to create humanity. God is sufficient unto Himself and does not need the human being because HE IS. He possesses the fullness of life within Him and needs nothing. Nevertheless, He creates. In truth, life has the purpose of creating more life; otherwise, life is dead in itself. A form of life that does not generate life generates death; it dies within itself.

Let Me give you the example of a plant: observe how the wind carries its seeds so that from one plant another can come forth many kilometres away thanks to the wind that carries the plant’s seeds. The same happens with you. I am the wind of life; I transport your seed so that other lives may be generated. If you abandon yourselves to Me, I enable your life to generate other lives and awaken life in other souls who are in different places, including purgatory.

The purpose God assigns to all forms of life is to generate, to become an instrument that brings forth new life, which in turn brings forth new life, in an incessant cycle. I am not only referring to physical but also to spiritual life, which is equally important. It is up to God to give life, but you can collaborate with Him. You collaborate by helping others to find the path towards the Lord, and thus elevate themselves. In doing so, you help them live. This is because human beings are not only born when a woman gives birth to them; they are only truly born when they feel God, when they sense His mysterious presence above them. This is life! Jesus said that true life lies in knowing the Father. As long as the soul does not know the Father, it does not have life within itself, because the seed that the Father placed in you at the moment of conception cannot develop and flourish. It remains closed and cannot generate, nor can it be carried away by the wind like the seeds of the plants.

I urge you never to consider your life as useless and empty, nor to believe it belongs to you. You are very important in God’s plan! Every response you give to God means a step forward for many others. Your every ‘yes’ to God is a breath for your neighbour; it is the breath of life. Every step forward allows you to enter deeper into life. If you do not continue your spiritual path, if you stop, your soul dies in itself; the life it holds within suffocates. You must understand the fundamental importance of your life in the plan of salvation.

I call on you to understand these things and put them into practice because today, regrettably, the people of the Earth are profaning life. They are destroying it in themselves and in others; they are destroying the dignity of life, and this is very grave. In the eyes of God, this is the gravest of all sins. There is no sin more severe than taking a life, not just physically but also by preventing individuals from living according to God’s design. Hindering them and suffocating the divine impulses within them is equivalent to homicide, sadly a sin committed by many.

I invite you to be children of the Light, children of God! Allow God’s Life to grow within you and pass it on to others. This is your foremost task.

I bless you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.”
