July 21, 2022 Reflection – In this time of grace…

In this time of grace…   July 21, 2022 Dear Family of Mary! “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.” (March 25, 2013) Our Lady has told us that this is a time of grace consistently and often throughout these 41 years of her presence in Medjugorje. She wants us to recognize that we are living in a time in which Heaven is open to us in an unusual way. God is looking upon us with great mercy, and He is pouring out that mercy upon us in a powerful way. This is a time of grace! Therefore, every time we reach out to the Lord in prayer, we can expect amazing things to happen. Just as when Moses was called to deliver the Israelites from the Egyptians, and miracles abounded, so now Our Lady has come to deliver us from the power of Satan, and miracles are abounding! This is a time of grace! (See Exodus 14) Just as when Elijah was sent to face down the 450 priests of Baal, and deliver the Jews from bondage to Satan, and God showed His great power on Mount Carmel, so are we being delivered from the false gods of our day through the presence of Mary, the Mother of Jesus, who has come to lead us to her Son. (See 1Kings 18) How can we enter into this deliverance? …I call you to take the cross of my beloved Son Jesus in your hands and to meditate on His passion and death. We must gaze upon our salvation, the Savior, Jesus Christ, who died for us that we might be delivered from Satan’s power. We must see the Red Sea opened up for us even as the Egyptians drown. We must see Elijah’s Sacrifice on Mt. Carmel consumed by the fire of the Lord even as the Prophets of Baal were defeated. We are made free by Jesus, “who is love, and gave Himself out of love to save each of [us]”! This is a time of grace!! We are being led to the Red Sea! We are being called to Mount Carmel to be freed of the Baals in our lives. We are being called to salvation! Now is the time of grace!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV 2022
