No 68 The Last Night ( Mamafs Boy)
This is my story by the Holy Spirit.
Evening in that day.
Jesus left the house of Simon in Bethany and went to the house where Mother Mary stayed in Jerusalem.
When He entered the room, she welcomed Him and asked, "You smell lovely. Whom did You meet?"
Jesus answered, "Martha's sister Mary anointed My body a little while ago."
Mary said, "Oh, dear! I think that she knows You are the Messiah."
But Jesus said to her," The Messiah that you say is an image that was made of the people.
And all things will disappear that were made of the men.
By contrast, the children who were born of God's love will remain forever.
And today the Pharisees understood I am not the Son of David. That means I am not your husband's son.
So, I am a sinner against their law. Your honor is the last thing I wanted to hurt until now.
Therefore, I do not want to make you a disgrace in public anymore."
Then Mary said," Since Simeon, who when you were born said that shall happen to me, I have already prepared for that.
But I am afraid that Martha told me some of them will kill You soon. So, I am very anxious about Your security.
Therefore, I am knitting this to drown my uneasiness. it is all I can do now. "
Then Jesus answered her, "Now in the being faithless and perversity, many want to kill Me.
Also, Satan is moving on preparing for the day."
She clasped His hands and said that when she was knitting a tunic for Him, she remembered His happy childhood.
And she wove that into it one by one.
So, Jesus considered her feelings and said, "Since I will stay here till morning, I will put on it tomorrow."
Mary said with delight to Him, "I am glad at Your word. I might have a happy feeling only tonight."
And Mary hugged Him and said, "Let me measure You once more, please.
Oh, boy! You have become slimmer. Do You eat much lately?"
Jesus said to her, "Yes, I have just eaten supper. And tomorrow is the day before the feast of the Passover.
I am going to eat supper with My disciples.
Wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this supper will be told as a memorial to them."
When Jesus knew that His hour had come and that He should depart from this world to the Father,
having loved His mother, Mary who is in the world, He showed His own love to the end.
Therefore He slept on His mother's bed that night.
And Mary kept talking about His happy recollections, knitting beside the bed till dawn.
Then the next morning, Jesus woke up and found her sleeping on a couch, tired.
The knitting was finished and was on the table.
He saw that and groaned in the Spirit, and holding the tunic, He said to Mary's soul.
"I am full of feelings that more than a thousand times desire to call you Mother in the world. "
However, when this is taken from My body,
I will no longer call you Mother. But I will not leave you alone.
I will give you another son you know well; so, he will become your son from then.
And you will teach him as I taught you. But you should teach him with endurance.
because he is too young to learn My words.
Do not worry, because the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name,
will teach you, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
To My sorrow, My garments as Church will make four parts, but this tunic will not tear.
Because nobody can break a mother's love.
That is true forever. Against this, there is no law.
Thank you so much for giving birth to Me. My life came by your water and blood on the earth.
For I, Jesus, not only by water but by your own water and blood.
And the Spirit bears witness that He sent Me to you. Because the Spirit is truth."
