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

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

"I have come to help you see that love and humility must abide together in the heart that seeks personal holiness. Neither one of these two virtues is genuine if the other is absent. Just as a tree always has roots, love and humility are joined in the soul that seeks perfection."

"Further, I tell you that the depth of holiness--that is, the depth of the soul's journey into the United Hearts--depends on the depth of Holy Love and Holy Humility in the heart."

"It is the souls who seek holiness, but bypass humility, that cause the greatest problems within a ministry. These are the ones who desire holiness on their own terms. These are the faultfinders who cause division by speaking against others. It is these souls who do not accept or respect the authority that is set in place. They desire to be known as holy, even as victim souls."

"The soul who tries diligently to progress to perfection does not want his virtue to be discovered by others. He desires hiddenness--always the last and least place. He seeks all of this with a loving heart."
