Be like the rays of the sun…
Like the rays of the sun! (c)Anthony Zubac October 18, 2018 St. Luke, Evangelist Dear Family of Mary! “…Apostles of my love, my children, be like the rays of the sun which with the warmth of my Son’s love warm everyone around them…” (October 2, 2018) “Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 9:12) Our Lady asks us to be like the light rays that pour out of the sun, warming all they come in contact with. Of course we understand the warmth that comes from the rays of the sun, because we live in that warm every day. It is a constant, life-giving light that makes plants grow, and heats the atmosphere so that we can live in it. Without the sun’s rays, there would be no life. Our Lady wants us to be the extended life-giving rays of the love of her Son, Jesus, who is our real source of life. Jesus’ love is our life source. He keeps us alive by His love. And we can become little warm extensions of that love, if we choose to follow Him, love Him and share His love with others. It isn’t as hard as it sounds. We don’t have to invent the love, any more than we can invent the heat of the sun. We just have to receive it. We have to “Son Bathe” As we receive Jesus’ love through faith, prayer, trust, and surrender, it will just ooze out of us to those around us. We will become that love by receiving it. Jesus wants to love all those we meet, and we can let Him love through us, by receiving His love and sharing it. We can help others feel the warm love of Jesus. Here are 5 messages in which Our Lady speaks about this process of sharing the warmth of the love of Jesus. Let’s try it! The world is so cold these days; it needs the warm love of God. November 25, 2009 “Dear children! In this time of grace, I call you all to renew prayer in your families. Prepare yourselves with joy for the coming of Jesus. Little children, may your hearts be pure and pleasing, so that love and warmth may flow through you into every heart that is far from His love. Little children, be my extended hands, hands of love for all those who have become lost, who have no more faith and hope. Thank you for having responded to my call.” April 25, 2008 “Dear children! Also today, I call all of you to grow in God’s love as a flower which feels the warm rays of spring. In this way, also you, little children, grow in God’s love and carry it to all those who are far from God. Seek God’s will and do good to those whom God has put on your way, and be light and joy. Thank you for having responded to my call.” April 25, 2014 “Dear children! Open your hearts to the grace which God is giving you through me, as a flower that opens to the warm rays of the sun. Be prayer and love for all those who are far from God and His love. I am with you and I intercede for all of you before my Son Jesus, and I love you with immeasurable love. Thank you for having responded to my call.” October 02, 2016 “…Apostles of my love – you who pray, sacrifice yourselves, love and do not judge – you go and spread the truth, the words of my Son, the Gospel, because you are the living Gospel; you are the rays of the light of my Son. My Son and I will be with you to encourage you and to test you. My children, always implore the blessing of those, and only of those whose hands have been blessed by my Son, of your shepherds. Thank you.” February 02, 2017 “Dear children, you who are striving to offer every day of your life to my Son, you who are trying to live with Him, you who are praying and sacrificing – you are hope in this peaceless world. You are rays of the light of my Son, a living gospel, and you are my beloved apostles of love. My Son is with you. He is with those who think of Him – those who pray. But in the same way, He is patiently waiting for those who do not know Him. Therefore, you, apostles of my love, pray with the heart and with your works show the love of my Son. This is the only hope for you, and this is also the only way to eternal life. I, as a mother, I am here with you. Your prayers directed to me are the most beautiful roses of love for me. I cannot but be where I sense the scent of roses. There is hope. Thank you.” In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan ©Mary TV 2018
