I have been an avid reader of the messages of our Lord through True Life in God (tlig.org. It has helped to form me in God's ways though I am not perfect, and only God is perfect.
Today is 24th anniversary of TLIG and I would like to share with you their newsletter:
God The Father Spoke to Vassula on the 13th Anniversary of the TLIG Messages, These words:
(The Father leaned from Heaven and approached me...)
"My Vassula, nothing pleases Me more than when you gather yourself in My Presence; extol My Word; I, God, am looking down from heaven, into your room, flower; you have seen My Glory, you have tasted My sweetness and you have obtained My favour; before the mountains were born, before anything on earth had sprout, I had chosen you, My loved one, to sing a melodious tune honouring My Name thrice Holy and giving life with My Word to the dead; I had, My child, since your birth put you in My Angel's charge to guard you and carry you to Me; see? can any one say: "God has not displayed His Divine Power; God has not been mindful of His Love and Faithfulness to His creation;"
ah, Vassula, it has been thirteen perfumed years, thirteen years of anointed Messages confided to you so that you pronounce, to nations, My Will; I spoke and you believed .... I gave this immense treasure to you and filled your generation with the odour of My fragrance, and every soul that opened the window of her heart to Me was perfumed from within and without, My sweetness penetrating even to the marrow of the bone, fragrancing soul, mind and spirit .... did you not know that when I promise I fulfil?
My child, lean now on the same Heart which My Son, Jesus Christ, is nearest to - and remember: I will cultivate this generation and I will make them understand that immortality is found in being kin to the Triune God; My intention is to draw every soul into a divine and intimate union of love, deifying them in Our one Substance, and in Our one Will ....
O glory be to our Triune God,
God of heaven and earth,
in whose power all creation will bend its knees;
glory be to Him from generation to generation
in the Church;
Let us all proclaim:
there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism
and one God who is Father of all,
through all and within all;
and that there is one true theology:
that of contemplating God
in His Triune Glory and in His Divine Mystery!
be blessed; in the sight of all heaven, I, your Eternal Father, bless you giving you the unction of My Divine Love on your forehead; (Nov. 28.1998)

Barbara in Germany writes this about the TLIG prayer groups:
You want to meet God?
TLIG Prayer Groups are a special place to meet God. It is not just friendship and togetherness it is more, much more. Each prayer meeting is like the gathering of the disciples together with Our Blessed Mother on Pentecost. To join a TLIG prayer meeting means to enter the Cenacle and pray for the Holy Spirit to come. And He comes!
There are only few ‘little’ things to consider: stay small, humble, patient, self-effaced, gentle, meek and UNITED. That is the key! Unity!
In these groups we learn how to be united in peace and love and out of this unity in love all virtues come. In a prayer meeting we draw from His Heart and fill our heart. Each meeting is so unique for God knows what each member needs right now. The meetings are ever so blessed and often you have the feeling of being out of time and space and filled with so much joy like a little child. And indeed we are children…God’s children. Look at the faces in the beginning and at the end of a prayer group meeting and you will see the difference! Yes, God as a Father provides us with all graces we need to grow towards Him. You want to meet God? Go and enter His school of love and joy – join a prayer group! location near you? ask prayergroups@tlig.org
8. If you believe the messages are from the Holy Trinity and they have led you to a more intimate relationship with God - get tied in with the TLIG family contact your association or other volunteer areas and ask how you can help out even 2 hours a month. See all the areas of TLIG where help is always needed . http://tlig.org/en/contact/dir/
9. Donate to Beth Myriam or contact your local Beth Miriam how you can volunteer. Consider starting a new one. Go to http://tlig.org/en/bethmyriam/
10. Make a commitment to join in the international pilgrimages, national retreats where we all pray and live Unity- these things Fr. Otfried stressed as so important. Call or email your local association to make sure you on on their mailing lists so you know when events take place.
Father Tony's Suggested Meditation for the 24th Anniversary Of True Life In God :
Fr. Tony says; "we all have the responsibility to be "Apostles of the end of times"
April 3rd 1996
"...it had been said that at the end of times, Our Two Hearts would raise apostles, and they would be called: apostles of the end of times; these would be instructed by the Queen of Heaven and by Myself, to go forward in every nation, to proclaim without fear the Word of God, even when they would be drenched with blood, by the Enemy's vicious attacks, they shall not be broken; their tongue would pierce the enemies of My Church, like a double-edged sword, by exposing their heresies;
they would never stagger, nor would they know fear, because I would provide them with a spirit of courage; the destructive whip would not catch them; they would not leave one stone unturned; they would pursue the sinners, the lofty speakers, the great and the proud, the hypocrites, the traitors of My Church, they would pursue them with My Cross in one hand, and the rosary in the other; and We would stand by their side; they would shatter the heresies and build faithfulness and truth in their place; they would be the antidote of the poison, because they would sprout, like buds, from the Royal Heart of Mary; 4
these apostles of the end of times would call on God, their Father, and God, their Father, would call on their spirit; they would call on Mary, their Blessed Mother, and their Blessed Mother would call on them to become witnesses of the Most High; and the Holy Spirit would give them a spirit of zeal to be ready for God, to be ready for this Battle, that day, the haughty crown of the powers of evil will be trampled underfoot by the Woman adorned with the sun, and by all Her children;
the second Eve, in whom I have given enough power to overthrow Satan and his empire, will crush his head with Her heel; this enmity is not only given between the Queen of heaven and Satan, but it is given as well between Her children whose empire is in Her Heart, and the children of the Devil, who have built their kingdoms in him and through him, and who are in your days your biggest persecutors; many of these are worshippers of the Beast, the scholars and the philosophers of your times ....
