Yearn for Heaven!

Dear Family of Mary!

The Gospel for today (Luke 12:13-21) tells the familiar parable of the rich man whose harvest was so big that he decided to tear down his barns and build bigger ones so he could keep all his produce and live a care-free life. But God says to him, “You fool, this night your life will be demanded of you; and the things you have prepared, to whom will they belong?” The message is clear. We are only passing through this life. It is not our end point. Those of us who try to hide from that reality are fools. We are meant for eternity. Our home is with God.

Our Lady once told us:

September 25, 2012 “Dear children! When in nature you look at the richness of the colors which the Most High gives to you, open your heart and pray with gratitude for all the good that you have and say: ‘I am here created for eternity’ – and yearn for heavenly things because God loves you with immeasurable love. This is why He also gave me to you to tell you: ‘Only in God is your peace and hope, dear children’. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Her message is the antidote to the attitude of the rich man in the parable. Yes, we must rejoice at the bounty of our world. Especially now at harvest time, we can only marvel at the provision of God for us. But Our Lady tells us that all we see in nature is from the Most High!! He is the giver of all good things.

She calls us to respond to this bounty with gratitude. And in that gratitude let go of it all. We are not created just to consume the earth’s goods. She tells us to say, “I am here created for eternity!” The riches of the earth are only meaningful as a help in reaching eternity with God.

“Yearn for heavenly things because God loves you with immeasurable love.”There is great healing for our souls if we begin to yearn for heaven and God. When we live only for this world, we silence our souls. We deny the true desire of our souls, and try to silence the yearning for God that is built into us. We distract ourselves with all kinds of things, to run from that inner voice that says, “I need God”. But we can release that truth in ourselves by choosing the truth. We need God.

The Lord has sent Our Lady to help us to do just that. “This is why He also gave me to you to tell you: ‘Only in God is your peace and hope, dear children.'” Jesus wants us to recognize our deep need for God. There is so much hope in owning it. We need God. We want God. We are made for God. God is our only hope and future. He is our peace and hope.

May we break free from the delusion of the rich man, and find our true hope and joy in God!

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

Our Lady Speaks

Vicka's Note MaryTV

Vicka, one of the visionaries in Medjugorje, wrote the note (above) after Our Lady spoke with her during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about Mary TV’s  plan to build a television facility in Medjugorje.

Vicka wrote to Denis: “Our Lady says that the plan is good – but you need to wait a little.  Now you can get prepared little by little, until Our Lady tells when the right moment is.  You don’t need to hurry, make haste, but to be patient.”

When Our Lady said this to Vicka, the technical genius in Medjugorje that she had her eyes upon, who would begin Mary TV’s live streaming from Medjugorje, was seven years old.

Totus Tuus (Totally Yours)

Immaculate Conception, Mary my Mother, Live in me, Act in me, Speak in me and through me, Think your thoughts in my mind, Love through my heart, Give me your dispositions and feelings, Teach, lead me and guide me to Jesus, Correct, enlighten and expand my thoughts and behavior, Possess my soul, Take over my entire personality and life, replace it with Yourself, Incline me to constant adoration, Pray in me and through me, Let me live in you and keep me in this union always.

Our Lady gave this prayer 25 years before She started appearing in Medjugorje. This prayer is being answered through Our Lady’s presence in Medjugorje and through Her messages. Mother Immaculata writes: “This is Mary’s hour and She is about to crush Satan’s head. Her very being is like incandescent heat in the center of the Trinity and the manifestation of Her power is growing daily. The Immaculate Conception prayer (which is what Our Lady called the prayer she gave me for union with Her) has been used by exorcists who have told me that the devil reacts violently to it and is subdued by it. We are praying daily for the success of Mary TV!“

Our Lady Gives A Sign…

Mary_with_Sun

MARY TV was LIVE STREAMING Ivan’s May 24, 2013 apparition on Mt. Podbrdo (Apparition Hill) in Medjugorje. My wife, Cathy, was praying in front of her computer in the US, connected through the Internet, welcoming Our Lady along with everyone gathered on the mountain. She couldn’t see anything on her computer screen because it was late at night and Ivan had said, “No lights.” She found herself asking Our Lady for a sign – a little light – as a sign that MARY TV was on the right track and really serving her. Just after the apparition, when she went to give an account on Mary TV’s Facebook page, the page opened with this picture that she had never seen before, captioned: “MARY APPEARS OVER BUILDING IN MEDJUGORJE, PHOTO TAKEN BY PILGRIM.” Our Lady is standing directly over MARY TV’s studios, her feet right where we have two POV cameras STREAMING 24/7 LIVE TO THE WORLD Apparition Hill & Cross Mountain!

ASK JESUS IF HE’D LIKE YOU TO START SENDING A MONTHLY DONATION TO MARY TV.
TO CONTINUE SAILING WITH OUR LADY UPON THE DIGITAL SEA THIS BOAT NEEDS FINANCIAL HELP.

Our Lady spoke to Vicka during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about the importance of Mary TV’s mission. At that time she told Vicka that she herself (Our Lady) would begin Mary TV! She did! But she didn’t do it alone. The generosity of her children made Mary TV a reality for her. Your generosity is needed now for it to continue!
