Message from St. Thomas Aquinas given to Visionary Maureen Sweeney-Kyle in North Ridgeville, USA

St. Thomas Aquinas comes and says: "Praise be to Jesus."

"I am going to put this spirituality into terms you will understand. Say a chef is making a cake. The chef represents the free will since he decides what goes into the cake. The ingredients of the cake are the various virtues that the soul accepts or rejects. The flavor of the cake would be the spirit of the person, because it is the sum total of all the ingredients the chef chooses to use."

"Now, when the soul decides with his free will to become a martyr of love, he is surrendering everything--all the 'ingredients' to Holy Love--to the Immaculate Heart. In other words, he empties the bowl of all that goes together to make the delicious cake, and asks the Lord to make it into a cake of 'love' in whatever way he chooses. So, you see, even the spirit must be surrendered in order to be a true martyr of love."

"Do you understand this now?"

Maureen: "Maybe."

St. Thomas: "Ponder it. You don't have to understand for it to be so."
