July 17, 2023 Reflection – I am coming to you as a mother…
I am coming to you as a mother… July 17, 2023 Dear Family of Mary! I chose this picture because of the beautiful young mother with her children all huddled beneath the statue of Our Lady on Podbrodo! Our Lady wants us to huddle close to her in just this same way. She wants to guide us, comfort us and teach us so that we will grow into mature sons and daughters of the Father. She is with us to do just that. Here is a beautiful message in which she invites us to be her children: March 2, 2014 “Dear children, I am coming to you as a mother and I desire that in me, as in a mother, you may find your abode, consolation and rest. Therefore, my children, apostles of my love, pray. Pray with humble devotion, obedience and complete trust in the Heavenly Father. Trust as I have trusted when it was said to me that I will bring the blessing of the promise. May out of your hearts, from your lips, always come forth ‘May your will be done!’ Therefore, trust and pray so that I can intercede for you before the Lord, for him to give you the Heavenly Blessing and fill you with the Holy Spirit. Then he will be able to help all those who do not know the Lord – you, apostles of my love, will help them to call him ‘Father’ with complete trust. Pray for your shepherds and place your trust in their blessed hands. Thank you.” Yes, Mother, we will pray as you are teaching us to pray… “May out of your hearts, from your lips, always come forth, ‘May your will be done!’” In Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!
