Jesus I adore You with the Queen of Peace – Part 2

(c)Anthony Zubac November 23, 2018 St. Clement I, St. Columban, St. Miguel Austin Pro Dear Family of Mary! Tomorrow is the anniversary of the death of Fr. Slavko Barbaric (November 24). We have one last chance here to reflect on his words of guidance. I will finish the beautiful meditation for Adoration on the Queen of Peace. Jesus I adore you together with the Queen of Peace (Part 2) 6) Jesus, I adore You and I thank You together with the Queen of Peace, who makes it possible to contribute to peace in the world with my prayer and sacrifice, my love and peace. Jesus, you wish to make me an apostle and a witness of peace in the world. How many people today have no peace? How many young people are agitated to the point of destructiveness? How many families are disunited? How much heartbreak there is? How many nations are in conflict with others? Thank you that I can be a helper of Mary in her battle against evil and against the deception of Satan: September 25, 1986 “Dear children! By your own peace I am calling you to help others to see and begin to seek peace. You, dear children, are at peace and not able to comprehend lack of peace. Therefore, I am calling you, so that by your prayer and your life you help to destroy everything that is evil in people and uncover the deception that satan makes use of. You pray that the truth prevails in all hearts. Thank you for having responded to my call.” – Jesus, together with You and Mary I wish to bring peace and love, to expose and conquer Satan and his plans in the world! (Repeat this prayer quietly within yourself.) 7) Jesus, I adore You and glorify You together with Mary, the Queen of Peace and all those who, upon her invitation, have opened their hearts to her messages, putting into practice all her maternal advice, experiencing Your mercy at confession as well as Your forgiveness. May you be blessed Jesus for Your mercy, because You have pulled many hearts out of the grip of sin and entered into many destructive lifestyles, opening the way to peace. Be blessed in all those, who by the intercession of Mary, have understood that they have to love their lives without condition as well as the lives of others, thereby opening a new way to peace. Be blessed, Jesus, for every Priest who patiently and responsibly hears confessions and with great love opens hearts to your peace and forgiveness. Be blessed because You will, by Mary’s intercession, rescue and open many other hearts which are now closed. (Call to mind and pray for those who you know are in need of confession that they may be able to recognize their own sinfulness and be granted the strength to come forward to be delivered.) 8) Jesus, I adore You and I acknowledge that I did not heed Your words which came through Your Mother Mary. The seed of divine peace, which she was sowing, fell on the untilled land of many hearts, therefore war came and all that war brings with it. That is why nations could neither understand nor agree. And now, before You, I want to repent for the sin of war and for all the destruction and killing. I want to repent for the extent to which I ignored Your messages thereby contributing to the lack of peace. We did not recognize the time of our ‘visitation’. Many lives were taken, the spirit of violence and hatred became stronger than the blessed Spirit of Peace in most hearts. Many joined forces against Your Mother’s messages, doing all in their power to stop or silence them. I am sorry Jesus that hearts became so hardened and cold. Jesus, evil continues to threaten, but I believe that it is possible for You to turn all to good, and that there where sin did most abound, Your grace will abound even more so. -Jesus, I adore You together with Mary, the Queen of Peace, and I beseech You, forgive us our sins of war and all destruction of human life.! (Repeat this prayer quietly within yourself.) 9) Jesus, I adore You and I thank You for the hope that You give to me through Mary, the Queen of Peace, during these troubled times. I know that conversion is the path that must be followed before peace comes, but often neither I nor those around me have the strength to walk it. That is where I need to call upon Your grace. I thank You Jesus that today You will give me the strength to convert and to understand the ways and the laws of peace. May no-0ne tire on their road of conversion that will bring them to peace. Saint James contemplates and invites us: What causes wars, and what causes fighting among you? Is it not your passions that are at war in your members? You desire and do not have; so you kill. And you covet and cannot obtain; so you fight and wage war. You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. (James 4: 1-3) Purify me and this whole world Jesus, with the grace of conversion, so that my deepest yearning may find its fulfillment in You, and so that I should be delivered from disordinate passions which in turn, are a threat to peace. Enable Your Church to be an instrument of blessing with peace! I know, Jesus, that for my part I need to be open and willing in order for Your Spirit to possess and deliver me. Thank you Jesus for granting inner freedom and peace to those who invoke Your help. (Think about and pray for those who neither cooperate with the Lord nor accept His Mother’s messages nor the gift of her presence.) 10) Blessing Jesus, King of peace, by the intercession of Mary grant us Your peace. May it rule every heart and soul, every family and community and finally, the Church and the whole world. Heal all aggression and division, heal every wound received from a “peaceless” family or community. Heal also the wounds inflicted by the restless of the Church or from the world. Touch every restless heart by the intercession of the Queen of Peace. Renew the Church and the world and grant that by the intercession of the Queen of Peace, justice and peace may be embraced through You, who live and reign, world without end. Amen. In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan ©Mary TV 2018 PS. Tomorrow let’s remember Fr. Slavko and give thanks for his life and his priesthood. Mary, Queen of Peace, thank him for us!!

Jesus I adore You with the Queen of Peace – Part 1

  (c)Mary TV November 22, 2018 St. Cecilia, Martyr Dear Family of Mary! Fr. Slavko wrote a set of meditations for Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in his book, “Adore My Son with your Heart”. Here is one of those meditations, dedicated to the Queen of Peace. In our Gospel for today, Jesus laments as He looks over the city of Jerusalem, “If this day you only knew what makes for peace…” Fr. Slavko desired this vision of peace for the whole world. Jesus I adore You together with the Queen of Peace 1) Jesus, I adore You because You are the King of Peace! Jesus, I adore You because You are the source of peace! Jesus, I believe in You because You are our peace! 2) Jesus, I adore You today together with the Queen of Peace whom You sent to be with us during these restless times. May that moment be forever blessed when she said to the visionaries: “I am the Queen of Peace. My Son sends me to help you.” May You be blessed through her, because in Your name she continually invites us to open ourselves up to peace. June 25, 1987 “Dear children! Today I thank you and I want to invite you all to God’s peace. I want each one of you to experience in your heart that peace which God gives. I want to bless you all today. I am blessing you with God’s blessing and I beseech you, dear children, to follow and to live my way. I love you, dear children, and so not even counting the number of times, I go on calling you and I thank you for all that you are doing for my intentions. I beg you, help me to present you to God and to save you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” – Jesus, I adore you together with the Queen of Peace and I open my heart to peace! (Repeat this prayer quietly within yourself.) 3) Jesus, King of Peace, I adore You together with the Queen of Peace. Blessed be that moment when she appeared at the big cross, crying, saying: “Peace, peace, peace! Only peace! Peace between God and man, and peace between all people! Fast and pray, because with fasting and prayer, even wars can be stopped!” Thank You for sending the ‘Queen of Prophets’, to show us that peace comes from You and to make clear to us under what conditions peace will come. These conditions are conversion and reconciliation through prayer and fasting. Thank You, Jesus, for letting her sow the seeds of peace in these turbulent times. I thank You and bless You together with all those who have opened their hearts to her motherly call and who have received the gift of peace, because they prayed and fasted, and because they confessed and participated in the Holy Mass. – Jesus, I adore You, together with the Queen of Peace and all those who opened their hearts to the invitation to peace. (Repeat this prayer quietly within yourself.) 4) Jesus, I adore You together with the Queen of Peace who, in Your name, invites me and teaches me peace in my heart. She gives me the strength to be a witness to that peace in my family and in my everyday life situations. In her message she said: December 25, 1988 “Dear children! I call you to peace. Live it in your heart and all around you, so that all will know peace, peace that does not come from you but from God. Little children, today is a great day. Rejoice with me. Glorify the Nativity of Jesus through the peace that I give you. It is for this peace that I have come as your Mother, Queen of Peace. Today I give you my special blessing. Bring it to all creation, so that all creation will know peace. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (Think about yourself, your family and neighbors and pray for peace and serenity in your relationships.) 5) I adore You Jesus together with the Queen of Peace who teaches me that hatred is dangerous and that it gives birth to division and discord. It leads the soul to restlessness and a lack of peace. The Queen of Peace warns us that Satan is very strong and very active. July 31, 1986 “Dear children! Hatred gives birth to dissensions and does not regard anyone or anything. I call you always to bring harmony and peace. Especially, dear children, in the place where you live, act with love. Let your only instrument always be love. By love turn everything into good which satan desires to destroy and possess. Only that way shall you be completely mine and I shall be able to help you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” My Jesus today I wish with all my heart to obey what she in Your name says. I renounce hatred and all that creates disorder and lack of peace in me and around me. I renounce Satan and all his wicked works. I renounce all types of cooperation with Satan. In Your mercy and through her intercession I will resist every temptation. (Think about who it is who threatens peace within me, within my family, in my circle of friends and acquaintances and decide for peace, renouncing all cooperation with dissension, division and evil.) … I will pause here, and share the second half of this Meditation tomorrow. Truly, Fr. Slavko was a champion of Our Lady and her mission in Medjugorje. Let’s give God thanks for such a priest, who still today leads us in Our Lady’s school. In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

You have to close out of the app and then open it again, and all should be well. Thanks for your patience and thank you, Matt, for your hard work done out of love for us all!

The Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary

  (c)Mary TV November 21, 2018 The Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Dear Family of Mary! September 02, 2015 “Dear children, My dear apostles of love, my carriers of truth, again I am calling you and gathering you around me to help me, to help all of my children who thirst for love and truth – who thirst for my Son. I am a grace from the Heavenly Father, sent to help you to live the word of my Son. Love one another. I lived your earthly life. I know that it is not always easy, but if you will love each other, you will pray with the heart, you will reach spiritual heights and the way to heaven will be opened for you. I, your mother, am waiting for you there because I am there. Be faithful to my Son and teach others faithfulness. I am with you. I will help you. I will teach you faith that you may know how to transmit it to others in the right way. I will teach you truth that you may know how to discern. I will teach you love that you may come to know what real love is. My children, my Son will make it so as to speak through your words and your actions. Thank you.” On this beautiful feast day of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we remember the total gift of self that Mary made as a young girl. She gave herself entirely to God. This gift was never revoked. Mary, our Mother lived her entire life as a gift to God, always following His inspirations and will. Now she has come to us in these difficult days, to help us find our way to the Lord as she did. She will help us. She is with us to bring us safely to the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. May we never revoke our gift of self to Jesus through Mary. We want to always be faithful to them, living only for the Glory of God. Here is a beautiful hymn to Mary in honor of this day: Our Lady’s Presentation. How Acceptable to God was Mary’s Heart on the Day of her Presentation. “Hearken, O daughter, and see, and incline thy ear, and forget thy people and thy father’s house.” (Ps. xliv. II) Day breaks on temple-roofs and towers; The city sleeps, the palms are still; The fairest far of earth’s fair flowers Mount Sion’s sacred hill. O Maiden most Immaculate! Make me to choose thy better part; And give my Lord, with love as great, An undivided heart. O wondrous Babe! O child of grace! The Holy Trinity’s delight! Sweetly renewing man’s lost race, How fair thou art, how bright! O Maiden most Immaculate! Make me to choose thy better part; And give my Lord, with love as great, An undivided heart. Not all the vast angelic choirs That worship round the eternal throne, With all their love can match the fires Of thy one heart alone. O Maiden most Immaculate! Make me to choose thy better part; And give my Lord, with love as great, An undivided heart. Not only was thy heart above All heaven and earth could e’er attain, Thou gavest it with so much love, ‘Twas worth as much again. O Maiden most Immaculate! Make me to choose thy better part; And give my Lord, with love as great, An undivided heart. Would that my heart, dear Lord, were true, Royal and undefiled and whole, Like hers from whom Thy sweet love took The Blood to save my soul. O Maiden most Immaculate! Make me to choose thy better part; And give my Lord, with love as great, An undivided heart. If here our hearts grudge aught to Thee, In that bright land beyond the grave. We’ll worship Thee with souls set free, And give as Mary gave. O Maiden most Immaculate! Make me to choose thy better part; And give my Lord, with love as great, An undivided heart. http://catholicharboroffaithandmorals.com/Presentation%20of%20Mary.html In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
