The Eclipse   April 8, 2024 Dear Family of Mary! Today in America, there will be a total eclipse of the sun, which will occur over a swath of the USA from Texas to Maine! People from all over the country are traveling to these states to view the eclipse. It is a startling natural phenomenon. But many Christians have been feeling that it carries a deeper meaning, some kind of sign from the Lord. I ran across a very interesting article on the internet written by Karla Dial. She writes for The Stream. She makes the point that this eclipse may be a wake up call for Christians all over the world to repent and turn to the Lord. She draws from the Scriptures several compelling passages that lead us to hear God speaking to us. Here is the link to that article: https://ifapray.org/blog/the-incredible-opportunity-of-april-8-americas-moment-of-if/ Her final conclusion is that this eclipse is taking place 40 days before the Feast of Pentecost. And 40 days is often used as a time span for a fast, a time of turning to the Lord in supplication in the Scriptures. She calls on all Christians to consider fasting and doing penance before Pentecost, in response to this call from the Lord, for forgiveness for the evils of our people, and to ask for a revival of faith across the country and the world. Here is her conclusion: “What if, after 40 days of doing that, we experienced the greatest outpouring of His Spirit on our nation (and from there, the rest of the globe) that anyone has ever heard of? What if this is what kicks off the Billion-Soul Harvest that many have long said would take place before the Lord comes back for His spotless Bride? What if this is the beginning of the process that helps actually make us spotless?” I think she may be right. I felt immediately that Our Lady wants us to join in this time of prayer and fasting for a Holy Spirit Revival for the world. This may be the time for just such a revival. Our prayer and fasting, repentance and renewal may be just what is needed to begin a wave of faith in God to roll over the world. And we who follow Our Lady have a special grace. The Mother of Jesus is with us to lead us in this prayer of repentance and intercession! Just as she was with the Apostles in the upper room for 40 days of prayer and fasting before the first Pentecost, she is with us today. She will lead us in the Upper Room prayer and fasting for the Holy Spirit to cover the earth! This is what she has been teaching us for 42 years! She told us: September 25, 2020 “Dear children! I am with you for so long because God is great in His love and in my presence. I am calling you, little children: return to God and to prayer. May the measure of your [way of] living be love and do not forget, little children, that prayer and fasting work miracles in you and around you. May everything you do be for the glory of God, and then Heaven will fill your heart with joy and you will feel that God loves you and is sending me to save you and the earth on which you live. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Yes, Mother, we believe that God loves us and is sending you to save us and the earth on which we live. We will pray and fast these 40 days! Please stay with us and guide us as we intercede for the world, so much in need of salvation! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024

Divine Mercy Shrine in Medjugorje!   April 5, 2024 Friday of Easter Week! Dear Family of Mary! Jesus Christ is Risen from the Dead! Alleluia!!! This Sunday, April 7, is Divine Mercy Sunday! We have been praying the Divine Mercy Novena together since Good Friday. And on Sunday we will celebrate the gift of Divine Mercy, a day on which we are offered the complete forgiveness of sins. St. Faustina received these promises from Jesus, if the faithful prepare for Mercy Sunday properly: In her Diary, St. Faustina records a special promise given to her by Jesus. He told her to communicate it to the whole world: My daughter, tell the whole world about My inconceivable mercy. I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy. (699). In three places in her Diary, St. Faustina records our Lord’s promises of specific, extraordinary graces: I want to grant a complete pardon to the souls that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion on the Feast of My mercy (1109). Whoever approaches the Fountain of Life on this day will be granted complete forgiveness of sins and punishment (300). The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion will obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. (699). To receive these graces, the only condition is to receive Holy Communion worthily on Divine Mercy Sunday (or the Vigil celebration) by making a good confession beforehand and staying in the state of grace and trusting in His Divine Mercy. By these conditions, our Lord is emphasizing the value of confession and Holy Communion as miracles of mercy. The Eucharist is Jesus, Himself, the Living God, longing to pour Himself as Mercy into our hearts. In addition, our Lord says through St. Faustina that we are to perform acts of mercy: “Yes, the first Sunday after Easter is the Feast of Mercy, but there must also be acts of mercy” (742). “The graces of My mercy are drawn by means of one vessel only, and that is trust. The more a soul trusts, the more it will receive” (1578). The worthy reception of the Eucharist on Divine Mercy Sunday is sufficient to obtain the extraordinary graces promised by Jesus. A plenary indulgence[1], obtained by fulfilling the usual conditions, also is available. ( https://divinemercyforamerica.org/action-plan/utilize-the-promises/the-feast-of-mercy/ ) Our Lady also asks us to live the Mercy of her Son in her messages. Here is one message in which she instructs us on Mercy: March 2, 2019 “Dear children, I call you ‘apostles of my love’. I am showing you my Son who is the true peace and the true love. As a mother, through the mercy of God, I desire to lead you to Him. My children, this is why I am calling you to reflect on yourselves, starting out from my Son, that you look to Him with the heart and that you may see with the heart where you are and where your life is going. My children, I am calling you to comprehend that it is, thanks to my Son, that you live – through His love and sacrifice. You are asking of my Son to be merciful to you and I am calling you to mercy. You are asking of Him to be good to you and to forgive you, and for how long am I imploring you, my children, to forgive and to love all the people whom you meet? When you comprehend my words with the heart, you will comprehend and come to know the true love and you will be able to be apostles of that love, my apostles, my dear children. Thank you.” Our Lady is very practical. She sees clearly that the Mercy of her Son changes everything for us, that His Mercy has sent her to us for all these years, and that we need to reflect on how we live mercy ourselves if we are going to be ready for God’s judgment. If we want mercy we must give it first to others. To live mercy in imitation of Jesus is a tremendous goal. It will give us the best training in love and holiness we could ask for! Let’s prepare for Divine Mercy Sunday with great anticipation. Mother Mary is guiding us. Jesus has given the graces. We have only to desire them and go to Holy Mass, prepared by a good confession and with a desire to be holy through mercy! Blessed Easter!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

“Look at my hands and my feet…”   April 4, 2024 Thursday of Easter Week! Dear Family of Mary! Jesus Christ is Risen from the Dead! Alleluia!!! A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke 24:35-48 The disciples of Jesus recounted what had taken place along the way, and how they had come to recognize him in the breaking of bread.  While they were still speaking about this, he stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.” But they were startled and terrified and thought that they were seeing a ghost. Then he said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do questions arise in your hearts? Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have.” And as he said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. While they were still incredulous for joy and were amazed, he asked them, “Have you anything here to eat?” They gave him a piece of baked fish; he took it and ate it in front of them. He said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and in the prophets and psalms must be fulfilled.” Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures. And he said to them, “Thus it is written that the Christ would suffer and rise from the dead on the third day and that repentance, for the forgiveness of sins, would be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things.”  The Gospel of the Lord. I love this account of the disciples first up close encounter with the Risen Jesus! They had to test Him out! Hand, feet, touching Him, seeing Him eat! I is so human! And Jesus is so human!!! We need to be this simple with the Risen Jesus as well. Think and pray about how human His is! Human like us!! Our Lady said to us: November 2, 2019 “Dear children, my beloved Son always prayed and glorified the Heavenly Father. He always said everything to Him and trusted in His will. This is what you, my children, should also do, because the Heavenly Father always listens to His children. One heart in one heart – love, light and life. The Heavenly Father gave Himself through a human face, and this face is the face of my Son. You, apostles of my love, you should always carry the face of my Son in your hearts and your thoughts. You should always think of His love and His sacrifice. You should pray to always feel His presence, because, apostles of my love, that is the way for you to help all those who do not know my Son, who have not come to know His love. My children, read the book of the Gospel. It is always something new, it is what binds you to my Son who was born to bring the words of life to all of my children and to sacrifice Himself for all. Apostles of my love, carried by the love for my Son, bring love and peace to all of your brothers. Judge no one. Love everyone according to the love for my Son. In this way, you will also be caring for your soul, and it [your soul] is that what is most precious, which truly belongs to you. Thank you.” Our Lady wants us to love Jesus, who became one of us to save us. He is risen, and He is still one of us, in our humanity. What a mystery of love!! Blessed Easter!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024 PS. Today is Day 7 of the Divine Mercy Novena! Pray it with us on Mary TV, on the Hour of Mercy. https://marytv.tv/hour-of-mercy/

On the Road! April 3, 2024 Wednesday within the Octave of Easter Dear Family of Mary! Today Denis and I travel home from Medjugorje. It is a sad day for us, but we are so grateful for our time here! We will be unpacking the graces for many days. But I realized that the Gospel for today is quite appropriate because it tells the story of two of Jesus’ disciples who were going to a village seven miles from Jerusalem called Emmaus. And they were debating about all that had happened to Jesus. Here is the account of that trip for those two very blessed disciples: A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke 24:13-35 That very day, the first day of the week, two of Jesus’ disciples were going to a village seven miles from Jerusalem called Emmaus, and they were conversing about all the things that had occurred. And it happened that while they were conversing and debating, Jesus himself drew near and walked with them, but their eyes were prevented from recognizing him. He asked them, “What are you discussing as you walk along?” They stopped, looking downcast. One of them, named Cleopas, said to him in reply, “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know of the things that have taken place there in these days?” And he replied to them, “What sort of things?” They said to him, “The things that happened to Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, how our chief priests and rulers both handed him over to a sentence of death and crucified him. But we were hoping that he would be the one to redeem Israel; and besides all this, it is now the third day since this took place. Some women from our group, however, have astounded us: they were at the tomb early in the morning and did not find his Body; they came back and reported that they had indeed seen a vision of angels who announced that he was alive. Then some of those with us went to the tomb and found things just as the women had described, but him they did not see.” And he said to them, “Oh, how foolish you are! How slow of heart to believe all that the prophets spoke! Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?” Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them what referred to him in all the Scriptures. As they approached the village to which they were going, he gave the impression that he was going on farther. But they urged him, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.” So he went in to stay with them. And it happened that, while he was with them at table, he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them. With that their eyes were opened and they recognized him, but he vanished from their sight. Then they said to each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he spoke to us on the way and opened the Scriptures to us?” So they set out at once and returned to Jerusalem where they found gathered together the Eleven and those with them who were saying, “The Lord has truly been raised and has appeared to Simon!” Then the two recounted what had taken place on the way and how he was made known to them in the breaking of the bread.   The Gospel of the Lord. Denis and I expect to encounter Jesus on our trip as well! Because the Lord is always finding ways to break into our lives! Jesus is Risen!! He is with us!! We are so blessed!! Blessed Easter!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024 PS. Today is Day 6 of the Divine Mercy Novena! Pray it with us on Mary TV, on the Hour of Mercy. https://marytv.tv/hour-of-mercy/ (We may not be able to record today’s prayer.)        

He is Risen!  Alleluia!!!   April 2, 2024 Tuesday within the Octave of Easter Dear Family of Mary! Jesus Christ is Risen from the Dead! Alleluia!!! The Gospel for today says it all! John 20:11-18 Mary Magdalene stayed outside the tomb ­weeping. And as she wept, she bent over into the tomb and saw two angels in white sitting there, one at the head and one at the feet where the Body of Jesus had been. And they said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken my Lord, and I don’t know where they laid him.” When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus there, but did not know it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you looking for?” She thought it was the gardener and said to him, “Sir, if you carried him away, tell me where you laid him, and I will take him.” Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to him in Hebrew, “Rabbouni,” which means Teacher. Jesus said to her, “Stop holding on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am going to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” Mary went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and then reported what he had told her.  What can we say about this amazing encounter! Jesus was no longer in the tomb! Mary wept, longing to find His Body. She could not yet believe that He was risen. So when He spoke to her, she thought He was the gardener. We often put limits on God, by our preconceived ideas. Resurrection from the dead is one of those ideas. We just can’t imagine it! Mary is sent to us just as she was sent to the brothers, the disciples, to smash that preconceived idea. Jesus is Risen! He is no longer dead, but lives!!! We need to let it sink in!! Jesus died, but is risen from the dead!! This changes everything for us!! April 25, 2003 “Dear children! I call you also today to open yourselves to prayer. In the foregone time of Lent you have realized how small you are and how small your faith is. Little children, decide also today for God, that in you and through you He may change the hearts of people, and also your hearts. Be joyful carriers of the risen Jesus in this peaceless world, which yearns for God and for everything that is from God. I am with you, little children, and I love you with a special love. Thank you for having responded to my call.” May we, like Mary Magdalene, be joyful carriers of the risen Jesus in this peaceless world!! Mother is with us, we have nothing to fear! Blessed Easter!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024 PS. Today is Day 5 of the Divine Mercy Novena! Pray it with us on Mary TV, on the Hour of Mercy. https://marytv.tv/hour-of-mercy/  

Monday within the Octave of Easter   April 1, 2024 Monday within the Octave of Easter Dear Family of Mary! Jesus Christ is Risen from the Dead! Alleluia!!! “Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went away quickly from the tomb, fearful yet overjoyed, and ran to announce the news to his disciples. And behold, Jesus met them on their way and greeted them. They approached, embraced his feet, and did him homage. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.” (Matthew 28: 8- 11) Jesus, newly risen from the dead, appeared to Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, and told them, “Do not be afraid. Go tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.” Jesus knew that when the women saw Him, it would be a big shock. He wanted to calm that shock. “Do not be afraid…” The reality of His presence was all they needed! Our Lady has also spoken to her chosen ones with calming words: September 2, 2013  “Dear children, I love you all. All of you, all of my children, all of you are in my heart. All of you have my motherly love, and I desire to lead all of you to come to know God’s joy. This is why I am calling you. I need humble apostles who, with an open heart, will accept the Word of God and help others to comprehend the meaning of their life along side God’s word. To be able to do this my children, through prayer and fasting, you must learn to listen with the heart and to learn to keep submitting yourselves. You must learn to keep rejecting everything that distances you from God’s word and to yearn only for that which draws you closer to it. Do not be afraid. I am here. You are not alone. I am imploring the Holy Spirit to renew and strengthen you. I am imploring the Holy Spirit that, as you help others, you too may be healed. I am imploring Him that, through Him, you may be God’s children and my apostles…” Our Lady speaks such words of love and comfort to us. She has a job for us to do but she wants us to be at peace, responding to her request in freedom and peace. Like Jesus, she does not want us to operate out of fear, but out of love. And so she tells us “Do not be afraid. I am here. You are not alone.” In these days when there is such unrest in the world, we need to be her helpers who accept the Word of God and help others to comprehend the meaning of their lives along side God’s Word. This is so important right now. There is a battle for souls that must be fought. And our weapon is love. As we bask in Easter Joy, may we comprehend that Our Lady needs us to be her apostles of love who spread the Word of God which will draw many hearts to the Lord! And she is with us!!! Blessed Easter!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024 PS. Today is Day 4 of the Divine Mercy Novena! Pray it with us on Mary TV, on the Hour of Mercy. https://marytv.tv/hour-of-mercy/  

Jesus Christ is Risen from the Dead! Alleluia!!   March 31, 2024 Easter Sunday Dear Family of Mary! Jesus Christ is Risen from the Dead! Alleluia!!! Thanks be to God, Our Lord Jesus has risen!! We rejoice in His Victory! Our Lady gave us these words which will help us to live in the joy and light of the Resurrection of her Son: April 25, 2018  “Dear children! Today I am calling you to live your new life with Jesus. May the Risen One give you strength to always be strong in the trials of life and to be faithful and persevering in prayer; because Jesus saved you by His wounds and by His Resurrection gave you new life. Pray, little children, and do not lose hope. May joy and peace be in your hearts and witness the joy that you are mine. I am with you and love you all with my motherly love. Thank you for having responded to my call.” In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024 PS. We at Mary TV pray that you will be filled with the graces of the Resurrection of Jesus!! May you find new power for a new life in the graces of Jesus’ saving Death and Resurrection! May you be healed and raised up in Christ! Amen!  

Good Friday   March 29, 2024 Good Friday Dear Family of Mary! On this solemn day, Good Friday, we have ample time to pray. This day is set aside to contemplate the death of Jesus on the Cross. We adore you, O Christ, and we bless You, because by Your Holy Cross, You have redeemed the world…. I would like to present five messages from Our Lady, in which she calls us to contemplate the Cross of her Son. We could read one for each decade of the Sorrowful Mysteries in our Rosary, as a meditation. I feel Our Lady’s words to us carry a great grace, and are profitable for such mediation. Let’s ask Mother Mary to walk us through this sorrowful day, encouraging us and strengthening us. May we be faithful to her Son, Jesus, as He carries dies upon the Cross for our sins, and the sins of the whole world. Five messages for the Sorrowful Mysteries: February 25, 2016 “Dear children! In this time of grace, I am calling all of you to conversion. Little children, you love little and pray even less. You are lost and do not know what your goal is. Take the cross, look at Jesus and follow Him. He gives Himself to you to the death on the cross, because He loves you. Little children, I am calling you: return to prayer with the heart so as to find hope and the meaning of your existence, in prayer. I am with you and am praying for you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” May 2, 2012 “Dear children! With motherly love I implore you to give me your hands, permit me to lead you. I, as a mother, desire to save you from restlessness, despair and eternal exile. My Son, by His death on the Cross, showed how much He loves you; He sacrificed Himself for your sake and the sake of your sins. Do not keep rejecting His sacrifice and do not keep renewing His sufferings with your sins. Do not keep shutting the doors of Heaven to yourselves. My children, do not waste time. Nothing is more important than unity in my Son. I will help you because the Heavenly Father is sending me so that, together, we can show the way of grace and salvation to all those who do not know Him. Do not be hard hearted. Have confidence in me and adore my Son. My children, you cannot be without the shepherds. May they be in your prayers every day. Thank you.” March 25, 1997 “Dear children! Today, in a special way, I invite you to take the cross in the hands and to meditate on the wounds of Jesus. Ask of Jesus to heal your wounds, which you, dear children, during your life sustained because of your sins or the sins of your parents. Only in this way, dear children, you will understand that the world is in need of healing of faith in God the Creator. By Jesus’ passion and death on the cross, you will understand that only through prayer you, too, can become true apostles of faith; when, in simplicity and prayer, you live faith which is a gift. Thank you for having responded to my call.” March 25, 2013 “Dear children! In this time of grace I call you to take the cross of my beloved Son Jesus in your hands and to meditate on His passion and death. May your suffering be united in His suffering and love will win, because He who is love gave Himself out of love to save each of you. Pray, pray, pray until love and peace begin to reign in your hearts. Thank you for having responded to my call.” July 25, 2020 “Dear children! In this peaceless time in which the devil is harvesting souls to draw them to himself, I am calling you to persevering prayer, so that in prayer you discover the God of love and hope. Little children, take the Cross in your hands. May it be your encouragement for love to always win, in a special way now when the Cross and faith are rejected. You be a reflection and an example with your lives that faith and hope are still alive and a new world of peace is possible. I am with you and intercede for you before my Son, Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call.” We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You, for by Your Holy Cross, You have redeemed the world… In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

Holy Thursday   March 28, 2024 Holy Thursday Dear Family of Mary! Today we begin the Holy Triduum. We walk with Jesus through his Passion and Death, staying close to Him and compassionating with Him. We want to stay by His side. The Gospel today remembers the washing of the Apostles feet. Jesus wanted to prepare them for His Passion, washing them from all that would keep them from staying with Him as He offered Himself to the Father for our sins. But we see that one of the twelve, Judas, was not able to surrender His treachery and greed and accept being cleaned by Jesus. We are aghast at his choice. But we must not think we are above him. We must be vigilant in cleaning our hearts. Here is the Gospel: A reading from the holy Gospel according to John 13:1-15 Before the feast of Passover, Jesus knew that his hour had come to pass from this world to the Father. He loved his own in the world and he loved them to the end. The ­devil had already induced Judas, son of Simon the Iscariot, to hand him over. So, during supper, ­fully aware that the Father had put everything into his power and that he had come from God and was returning to God, he rose from supper and took off his outer garments. He took a towel and tied it around his waist. Then he poured ­water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and dry them with the towel around his waist. He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Master, are you going to wash my feet?” Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing, you do not understand now, but you will understand later.” Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet.” Jesus ­answered him, “Unless I wash you, you will have no ­inheritance with me.” Simon Peter said to him, “Master, then not only my feet, but my hands and head as well.” Jesus said to him, “Whoever has bathed has no need except to have his feet washed, for he is clean all over; so you are clean, but not all.” For he knew who would betray him; for this reason, he said, “Not all of you are clean.”  So when he had washed their feet and put his garments back on and reclined at table again, he said to them, “Do you realize what I have done for you? You call me ‘teacher’ and ‘master,’ and rightly so, for indeed I am. If I, therefore, the master and teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash one another’s feet. I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do.”(Jn 13:1-15) Jesus, we long for you to wash our feet. We long for you to cleanse us of our sins. We long to release all our sins to You and become clean… Our Lady also comes to us to help us to be cleaned. This early message shows her great desire to help us to be purified and to adhere to her Son, Jesus: April 2, 2008 “Dear children, Also today as I am with you in the great love of God I desire to ask you: Are you also with me? Are your hearts open for me? Do you permit me with my love to purify and prepare them for my Son? My children, you have been chosen because, in your time, the great grace of God has descended on earth. Do not hesitate to accept it. Thank you.” Mother we permit you with your love to purify and prepare our hearts for your Son! Yes, Mother, help us to make good confessions and be made clean! Help us to be clean and ready for Jesus! Help us to accept the great grace of God! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024 Here is the schedule of live prayer from Medjugorje for today: Thursday – 03/28/24 3:00-4:00PM Hour of Mercy 4:00-5:00PM Daily Rosary 5:00-9:00PM Holy Thursday Mass

In this time of grace…   March 26, 2024 Dear Family of Mary! Here again is the message of March 25, 2024! March 25, 2024 Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje Dear children! In this time of grace, pray with me for the good to win in you and around you. In a special way, little children, pray united with Jesus on His Way of the Cross. Into your prayers put this humanity which wanders without God and without His love. Be prayer, be light, and be witnesses to all those whom you meet, little children, so that the merciful God may have mercy toward you. Thank you for having responded to my call. There is much to say about this message! But since we are entering into the most solemn and powerful moment in the Church Year, I hesitate to talk too much. Let me just point out that Our Lady began her message with these words, “In this time of grace…” She signals to us that during this week of sorrows, there are many graces available to us. All the victories Jesus will win through his humility, obedience, courage, patience, long-suffering, and sacrifice will be our victories as well. He shares every bit of the grace He wins by His death with us, if only we follow Him, repent, and believe. May this time of grace be a time of salvation and victory for each one of us! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024
