June 16, 2022 Reflection – Anniversary Novena, Day 2
Anniversary Novena, Day 2 June 16, 2022 Dear Family of Mary! On the second day of our novena, we have two messages from 2021 in which Our Lady gave us very good direction on how to offer the joy and love of God to all those we meet. She tells us that we need to be generous and be love for others: “Dear children! I am calling you to be prayer for all those who do not pray. Little children, witness with your lives the joy that you are mine and God will heed your prayers and give you peace in this peaceless world where pride and selfishness reign. Little children, you be generous and be the love of my love, so that pagans can feel that you are mine and convert to my Immaculate Heart. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (July 25, 2021) Our Lady is so positive!! She wants all her children to convert to her Immaculate Heart. And it is our job to help them, as her children! She tells us that people will feel that we are hers! Isn’t that amazing? What will they feel? I think they will feel her pure and immaculate love for them coming through us. And that will draw them to her. Our world is tired out by the sinfulness all around us. We long for the pure love of Jesus and Mary! She has the same optimism in the August 25, 2021 message: “Dear children! With joy I am calling all of you, little children, who have responded to my call: be joy and peace. Witness with your lives Heaven, which I am bringing to you. It is time, little children, that you be a reflection of my love for all those who do not love and whose hearts hatred has conquered. Do not forget: I am with you and intercede for all of you before my Son Jesus, that He may give you His peace. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (August 25, 2021) Our Lady continues her call to us to “be prayer” and to “be love” for all those who do not know Jesus. She wants us to “be joy and peace” for those whose hearts have been conquered by hatred! We can help them all to experience Our Lady’s love! This is the antidote. This is Our Lady’s great genius! She has perfected love in her heart and she gives it to us, as the cure for all the ills of our time. Let us pray: Mother, you call us to: Be prayer for all those who do not pray. Be generous and be the love of your love, so that pagans can feel that we are yours and convert to your Immaculate Heart. Be joy and peace and witness with our lives Heaven, which you are bringing to us. Be a reflection of your love for all those who do not love and whose hearts hatred has conquered. And to never forget: You are with us and intercede for all of us before your Son Jesus, that He may give us His peace. Mother we want to listen to your words, and live them. Please pray that we will have the grace to respond to your call. Thank you for coming to us for all these years! We love you! Amen. In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV 2022 P.S.
