Chastity and Virginity

DH-10
My daughter, let us talk about chastity. You should know that virginity and celibacy for the love of the Kingdom of
Heaven has roots in the Love of the Father that has been manifested in Me. I want to be loved chastely; for the
celibate, this means for the love of the Kingdom of Heaven; for Christian spouses, this means that I should be truly
loved and that I am not only sought for personal interest. This is to say that love is chaste in the real sense of the
word, if it springs from My Heart. The charisma of celibacy can only shine where Christians have the strength to love
the unloved, the outcasts and the weakest wholesomely.
Just as evangelical poverty demands not only that you free your heart to make room for My Love, to put it completely at
My disposal, this charisma means above all that you feel so steeped in My Love, that you are capable of renouncing a
large part or all of your human nature in order to discover the greatest wealth of gratitude.
From this same charisma also flows the intelligence and the art of knowing how to offer your neighbor, not only objects
or services, but, primarily, that which is most precious: an ardent, sincere love, that values services and gifts,
because the fire of My Love burns within those souls who seek Me. That indefinable Love, which teaches and inspires
internally, comes to be the only love that speaks externally.
When you pray silently and contemplate My words of Love, your soul is suspended in the abyss of Love, there you immerse
yourself in My Mercy, in My Heart, in My wounds…
I teach them internally; I seek a pure place to rest My head and there I lie down to wait for them to look for Me with
fire in their hearts, to look for the truth of My Love. My teachings never cease, I am a God that teaches and My Love
will never perish.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Through the rest of 2002, Scoop will be publishing a series of daily reflections on spiritual matters from Bolivian
author Katya Rivas. Rivas, has received an official imprimatur from the Catholic Church for several books she says she
was instructed to write by Jesus Christ, Mary and various Angels. Scoop’s extract, above, comes from Rivas’s book “The
Door to Heaven”. In 1999 Katya Rivas was the subject of a top-rating documentary show hosted by Mike Willessee (see
Scoop TV review - Jesus Christ Tells FOXNews He Wants To Hug World and Scoop Images ). More recently Rivas says she was instructed by Jesus to have her books translated and published on the internet with
the intention of having the books distributed to as wide an audience as possible. Several of the books can now be read
online at http://www.greatcrusade.org/, and more are coming soon.
