As part of Unity week here is a
second meditation for new and old readers of True Life in God. Vassula
delivered this speech in the Holy Land in 1998. It was for the
international TLIG pilgrimage. On this pilgrimage we had clergy from
many denominations and participants from over thirty countries.
This powerful speech gets to the very heart of the meaning and import
of Unity. At the same time it reminds all of us exactly where we are
going and brings immense refreshment and hope!!! A friend of mine once
said if something is worth reading once it is worth reading many times.
This definitely holds true for the talk below!

these two keys, unity will triumph over our division which is a sin.
Unity will come when we truly begin to love Jesus Christ. Unity will
come when we will die to ourselves. Unity will come when we lower our
voices to hear Christ’s voice and thus do His Will. Unity will come
when we lower our heads and allow Christ’s Head to be seen. Unity will
come when we will start looking after Christ’s Interests and not ours.
“Today there is a division in My Church as never
before; like Cain and Abel, brothers, yet unlike one from the other;
one blood, yet different; one was sincere, the other one not, one was
well disposed, the other one was ill-disposed and displeasing Me…” to read more click here
