May 17, 2023 Reflection – The Spirit of Truth
The Spirit of Truth May 17, 2023 Dear Family of Mary! Jesus said to his disciples: ” I have much to tell you, but you cannot bear it now. But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth.” (John 1612-13) Before the disciples had received the Holy Spirit, they did not have the fullness of Truth. It was the Holy Spirit who would infuse them with His Truth, the Truth about God and His love for us! We see the incredible change that took place in the Twelve after Pentecost! They were fearless and they had the truth within! Their witness was filled with power and truth. Our Lady has come in our day to help us to become witnesses in Truth as well. She has led us forward into the life of faith, the life of the Spirit. But we must cooperate, we must decide to live under her direction and care. Here is a message to ponder today: March 18, 2015 (Mirjana) “Dear children! With a full heart I am asking you, I am imploring you children: cleanse your hearts of sin and lift them up to God and to eternal life. I am imploring you: be vigilant and open for truth. Do not permit for all that is of this earth to distance you from the true cognition [understanding] of the contentment in the communion with my Son. I am leading you on the way of true wisdom, because only with true wisdom can you come to know true peace and the true good. Do not waste time asking for signs of the Heavenly Father, because He has already given you the greatest sign, which is my Son. Therefore, my children, pray so that the Holy Spirit can lead you into truth, can help you to come to know it, and through that knowledge of the truth that you may be one with the Heavenly Father and with my Son. That is the cognition [understanding] which gives happiness on earth and opens the door of eternal life and infinite love. Thank you.” We need the Truth. It is the bedrock upon which we can build our lives. Our societies need the Truth which comes from God. Let us pray for the Holy Spirit to fill us with deep understanding of the Truth which is God Himself! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan Mary TV
