Entering the Dark Night of the Soul, Meeting the Dead

When entering into a position of language and body composite of ADORATION and CONTEMPLATION of a Mystery and Resurrection of the Dead; there is a DIALOGUE that occurs between the SOUL and GOD when in the Divine Presence of the Sacrament. This Sacrament is the Holy Eucharist in exposition for ADORATION!
Fire AFLAMED the wood is at a stage of care for the purification of the wood to take its burning sensation of warmth and depth of penetration and this is the HEART burning for HIM TO STAY after DEATH is at the course of a bereavement of leaving this world and entering another.
I discovered myself turning to the EUCHARIST and at the SECURITY of THIS FAITH found this was the cause of me turning to Perpetual Adoration as the reflection of which Divine Intervention of providence delivered a message of readiness to receive the CONTINUED deliverance of a father and mother who deeply wounded my heart in the conduct of legal matter done through civil and state legislation of a restraining order of no contact and a threat against my person for contacting my own mother.
In this cause, I turned to the Mother who died and left me with no other mother to turn to and this was my Grandmother who passed away in 2014. And she was the CAUSE of my VOCATION and the SANCTIFICATION of DESIRE to enter CARMEL!
When delivering a strong OFFERING at the ALTAR there is an examination on the FAITHFUL DEPARTED who have known the CAUSE of a VOCATION in their sight and this is the elderly who encouraged the YOUNG to FINALIZE the DESIRE towards a direction. This direction was the END BEGINNING of the CALL!
Like Samuel, I turned to Eli and sought his direction on what to do when hearing a VOICE in the NIGHT calling while all were asleep. And the elderly directed him that when the VOICE calls again respond, "Here I am, Lord, I come to do your will." And thus, the young are sustaining the CALL as a succession from the Old to the New.
It has been delivered strongly that the path I walk is a path well taken by the LOVE WHO CALLS from a LOVER'S HEART and this is the drawing of the SPIRIT to a GIFT of KNOWLEDGE on the stable and habitual GRACE that has been lived and has always witnessed through this soul. FOR A CHARISM is sparked for where GRACE ABOUNDS sin was apparent.
I have learned that the SOULS I found worthy of my path towards direction are souls WHO CAME TO A KNOWLEDGE about life after death. And with this CONFIRMED REALITY of LIFE came the delivery that the decision was SECURE THROUGH FAITH composite to the LIFE that was lived here on EARTH! And I sought Him, whom my HEART LOVED and found HE was in a DEEP SLEEP!
Have you ever found yourself so in love that the moment you know this person's last breath is at the taking, you remain to be PRESENT at every breath until this last is taken? A VIGIL comprised this dimension of my life path and this VIGIL was to awaken to the sound of a BRIDEGROOM!
Who is the Bridegroom?
In discovering a HEART well with ONE WHO ONLY LOVES, I found the Character is ONE who is PRIEST FOREVER!
He is a Priest.
His Character is Priest.
I will tell you when this SEAL of PRIEST was a dead trying to rise again. All he did was offend me throughout the adoration like a failed husband who never knew how to greet the person of his wife.
There is a ROMANTICISM about being a BRIDE to a BRIDEGROOM!
Carmelite Spirituality delivers this strongly in the DARKEST NIGHT of a SOUL who waits. Uprising is the CHARACTER who knows the NIGHT is far darker when FAITH IS AWAKENED BY LOVE!
And so it is, the GOOD COME and I am awakened by LOVE and here is my RISING CALL!
