May 2, 2023 Reflection – “He firmly holds you by the hand…”
He firmly holds you by the hand! May 2, 2023 “My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can take them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out of the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one.” (John 10: 28-30) These words of Jesus give us such deep peace. How can we fear anything? We are in the hands of Jesus and His Father. We are loved, so deeply loved by God that our hearts should rest in total trust in the presence of the Lord. Jakov Colo received a beautiful message from Our Lady, in which she speaks about being in the hands of Jesus: December 25, 2020 (Jakov) “Dear children, also today Jesus is here beside you, even when you think that you are alone and that light does not exist in your life. He is here and has never left you or distanced Himself from you. The light of His birth illuminates this world and your life. His Heart is always open towards you, to receive your every pain, every trial, fear and need. His arms are extended towards you, that as a father, He may embrace you and tell you how important you are for Him, how much He loves you and cares for His children. Children, is your heart open towards Jesus? Have you completely surrendered your life into His hands? Have you accepted Jesus as your father, to whom you can always turn and in Him find consolation and everything you need to live true faith? That is why, my children, surrender your hearts to Jesus and permit Him to begin to rule your lives, because only in this way, will you accept the present and be able to face the world in which you live today. With Jesus, every fear, suffering and pain disappear, because your heart accepts His will and everything that comes into your life. Jesus will give you the faith to accept everything and nothing will distance you from Him — because He firmly holds you by the hand and does not permit for you to distance and lose yourselves in difficult moments — because He has become the Lord of your life. I bless you with my motherly blessing.” Let’s take Our Lord’s words and Our Mother’s words deeply to heart today. We are so loved!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan Mary TV
