"Mary, why is it that thee comfort me so, when mine twelve and the multitudes of Judea, plead for me to grant them aid and succor in this world, when I can only promise them peace in the next? Do ye not also wish from me things I have not the power to give?" "Ieshua, I have loved you all the long years of our lives, since the moment we played with sticks and sand upon the shores of Galilee. We were children and even then I knew that my love would be filled with sorrow and longing for you. Your Father, even in those gentle times held sway over you. We were very young and I sought to kiss you when your earthly father and mother were away at the market. Our lips touched and our hearts turned to fire, and you lept away, banishing me from your sacred heart." Years passed and Jesus the carpenters' son, Prophet and Savior yet to be never forgot Mary of the Magdalene, she who held sway over his heart while his Father in Heaven guided His Son upon a path unforseen. The moment that Jesus of Nazareth, and Mary of Magdalene may have indeed lay down together as man and wife, matters not at all, in spite of what those angry priests say. She and He, their Love, guides me.
