My joys are always surrounded by sorrows. In this world, the two are mixed together and seemingly cannot be separated. Those who follow me will not fear. I will be with them.

My greatest sorrow is the darkness which is coming upon the world, entangling so many in violence, disrupting lives and tearing apart whole cultures. Will nothing remain standing? Who dares to claim that any nation will remain in the light? Who can claim that they are safe, above the fray and able to continue without fear?

All is imperiled by different forces of evil, some from within and others from without. Evil knows which doors are left open and what weaknesses are vulnerable. No nation stands as a light upon the mountain, able to guide the world and keep it safe. All are corrupted and weakened. The torch of faith has been left behind, at the very moment when darkness comes and all the other lights are being extinguished.

This is my sorrow. Where is the light? Who carries the torch? No one. All follow other lights and these lights will soon be extinguished.

One light will not be put out or even dimmed. That light is still hidden. I have never allowed it to be exposed. This light is totally unknown, both to the world and even to the Church. The hiddenness has kept it safe so no wind can blow out its flame. Only as the world falls into darkness will I slowly, ever so slowly, bring this light forth. Suddenly, the light will be set upon the lampstand and the darkness will have an enemy capable of dispelling it. The great battle will begin. Seemingly, the darkness will put out the light (just as Satan killed Jesus), but God will restore the light to the whole world. This is what is taking place in these world events. In this hour of darkness, the light will remain hidden until it is time to come forth.
