April 24, 2025 Reflection – Easter Thursday – Divine Mercy Novena, Day 7

Easter Thursday – Divine Mercy Novena, Day 7 April 24, 2025 Thursday of Easter Week Dear Family of Mary! Before we pray our Divine Mercy Novena Prayers, I want to mention that tomorrow Our Lady will give us another message. We always await her message in quiet and peace, meditating on the previous message. Here is that message: March 25, 2025 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje Dear children, in this time of grace when you are called to conversion, I am encouraging you, little children: offer me your prayers, sufferings and tears for conversion of hearts that are far from the Heart of my Son Jesus. Pray with me, because, little children, without God you do not have a future or eternal life. I love you, but I cannot help you without you; therefore, say ‘yes’ to God. Thank you for having responded to my call. Thank you, dearest Mother, for this message. We await your new message with thanksgiving as well!! Here now is the Divine Mercy Novena prayer for April 24, 2025: Divine Mercy Novena, Day Seven: Today bring to Me the souls who especially venerate and glorify my mercy and immerse them in My mercy. These souls sorrowed most over my Passion and entered most deeply into My spirit. They are living images of My Compassionate Heart. These souls will shine with a special brightness in the next life. Not one of them will go into the fire of hell. I shall particularly defend each one of them at the hour of death. Most Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who particularly extol and venerate the greatness of Your mercy. These souls are mighty with the very power of God Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go forward, confident of Your mercy; and united to You, O Jesus, they carry all mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your mercy will embrace them as they depart from this life. Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and venerate Your greatest attribute, that of Your fathomless mercy, and who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living Gospel; their hands are full of deeds of mercy, and their hearts, overflowing with joy, sing a canticle of mercy to You, O Most High! I beg You O God: Show them Your mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed in You. Let there be accomplished in them the promise of Jesus, who said to them that during their life, but especially at the hour of death, the souls who will venerate this fathomless mercy of His, He, Himself, will defend as His glory. Amen. Our Lady has told us about God’s Mercy many times, calling us to receive it with great humility and joy. Here is one such message; March 2, 2019 “Dear children, I call you ‘apostles of my love’. I am showing you my Son who is the true peace and the true love. As a mother, through the mercy of God, I desire to lead you to Him. My children, this is why I am calling you to reflect on yourselves, starting out from my Son, that you look to Him with the heart and that you may see with the heart where you are and where your life is going. My children, I am calling you to comprehend that it is, thanks to my Son, that you live – through His love and sacrifice. You are asking of my Son to be merciful to you and I am calling you to mercy. You are asking of Him to be good to you and to forgive you, and for how long am I imploring you, my children, to forgive and to love all the people whom you meet? When you comprehend my words with the heart, you will comprehend and come to know the true love and you will be able to be apostles of that love, my apostles, my dear children. Thank you.” May we be those who receive Christ’s mercy and then give it to all we meet!! Let’s also pray for the repose of the soul of Pope Francis… Requiem Aeternam (“Eternal Rest”) V. Eternal rest grant unto Francis, O Lord. R. And let the perpetual light shine upon him. And may his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Finally: Let us pray our prayer in anticipation of the Cannonization of Carlo Acutis, even though it has been postponed!! Dear Mary our Mother and Queen of Peace, you tell us: “Invoke the help of all the Saints for them to be an example and a help to you.” With joy we invoke the help of Carlo Acutis, soon to be declared the Patron Saint of the INTERNET. May we now receive grace to follow his example, especially the young – who are looking at their phones.  Through his intercession may the devil be routed from the INTERNET and the beauty of Our Lady, through the INTERNET, cast out Satan as prince of the world! Thank you for praying with us! May this Easter Week be filled with light and joy for all of you! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan Mary TV    

April 23, 2025 Reflection – Easter Wednesday – Divine Mercy Novena, Day 6

Easter Wednesday – Divine Mercy Novena, Day 6 April 23, 2025 Wednesday of Easter Week Dear Family of Mary! Today our first reading at Holy Mass is the astounding account of the healing of the man crippled from birth! What a sign of the Power of God! The Holy Spirit was moving through the Apostles, and faith was bursting forth!! Here is the account: Acts 3:1-10 Peter and John were going up to the temple area for the three o’clock hour of prayer. And a man crippled from birth was carried and placed at the gate of the temple called “the Beautiful Gate” every day to beg for alms from the people who entered the temple. When he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked for alms. But Peter looked intently at him, as did John, and said, “Look at us.” He paid attention to them, ­expecting to receive something from them. Peter said, “I have neither silver nor gold, but what I do have I give you: in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazorean, rise and walk.” Then Peter took him by the right hand and raised him up, and immediately his feet and ankles grew strong. He leaped up, stood, and walked around, and went into the temple with them, walking and jumping and praising God. When all the people saw him walking and praising God, they recognized him as the one who used to sit begging at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with amazement and astonishment at what had happened to him. The word of the Lord. The man who was crippled from birth had never had a normal life. He was poor, only able to beg. He was living on the fringes of society. He was a humble soul. But in God’s eyes, he was His child. And His love poured out upon him through the Apostles. Today’s intention for the Divine Mercy Novena celebrates “Meek and Humble Souls and Souls of little children.” Like the man crippled from birth, these meek and humble souls carry in them something beautiful. It is their utter dependence upon the Lord. That dependence unites them with Jesus in such a beautiful way. Today we pray for these souls with great joy, asking God to heal them and bless them, just as He did the man crippled from birth. Come, Lord Jesus, and heal us all!! Divine Mercy Novena, Day Six: Today bring to Me THE MEEK AND HUMBLE SOULS AND THE SOULS OF LITTLE CHILDREN, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as earthly Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole torrents of grace. Only the humble soul is capable of receiving My grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence. Most Merciful Jesus, You yourself have said, “Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart.” Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father’s favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy. Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls, and upon little children who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these souls and by the delight You take in them: Bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen. Our Lady has told us: March 25, 2021 “Dear children! Also, today I am with you to tell you: Little children, who prays does not fear the future and does not lose hope. You are chosen to carry joy and peace, because you are mine. I have come here with the name ‘Queen of Peace’ because the devil wants peacelessness and war, he wants to fill your heart with fear of the future – but the future is God’s. That is why, be humble and pray, and surrender everything into the hands of the Most High Who created you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Let us pray our prayer in anticipation of the Cannonization of Carlo Acutis, even though it has been postponed!! Dear Mary our Mother and Queen of Peace, you tell us: “Invoke the help of all the Saints for them to be an example and a help to you.” With joy we invoke the help of Carlo Acutis, soon to be declared the Patron Saint of the INTERNET. May we now receive grace to follow his example, especially the young – who are looking at their phones.  Through his intercession may the devil be routed from the INTERNET and the beauty of Our Lady, through the INTERNET, cast out Satan as prince of the world!
