The fruit of prayer is joy and faith…

Dear Family of Mary!
Today’s Christmas message is December 25, 2021! It is another amazingly beautiful message!! Read it gently and carefully!! Her words are so full of grace:
December 25, 2021
“Dear children! Today I am carrying my Son Jesus to you, for Him to give you His peace. Little children, without peace you do not have a future or blessing; therefore return to prayer, because the fruit of prayer is joy and faith, without which you cannot live. Today’s blessing which we give you, carry to your families and enrich all those whom you meet, that they may feel the grace which you are receiving. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
“Today I am carrying my Son Jesus to you, for Him to give you His peace.”
On Christmas, Our Lady often carries her Son Jesus to us… She carries Him. That means He is a baby. We may not realize what this means. We do not understand the realities of eternity. But Our Lady can bring her Son Jesus, the Infant, to us on Christmas! It is wonderful!
What can be experienced in the presence of the Infant Jesus? Our Lady tells us He will give us His peace! Wow! Wow!!
I do realize that when I am in the presence of an infant I feel great peace. When I gaze at the child, and he or she gazes back at me, with those beautiful eyes of wonder and complete trust, I am transfixed with the miracle of that child’s life, and I could gaze at him for a very long time. It is the peace of innocense!
In the picture above, we see the bronze relieve of the Presentation in the Temple, when St. Simeon encountered the Infant Jesus and then declared, “Lord, now you let your servant go in peace; your word has been fulfilled: my own eyes have seen the salvation which you have prepared in the sight of every people: a light to reveal you to the nations and the glory of your people Israel.” Simeon gazed into Jesus’ eyes, the eyes of an infant, and he saw God! He realized that here was the One who would save his people. What Our Lady told us in this message is true, Jesus can give us His peace! Little baby Jesus can give us His peace!!
So imagine the exponential peace that can be received by gazing into the eyes of the Infant Jesus, Man and God! Our Lady brought her Son, Jesus on that Christmas Day, so that He could give us His peace!
“Little children, without peace you do not have a future or blessing; therefore return to prayer, because the fruit of prayer is joy and faith, without which you cannot live.”
Our Lady urges us to return to prayer in this message. It is only through prayer that we encounter Jesus, who can give us joy and faith. It is only through prayer that we experience Baby Jesus, who gives us peace. It is only through prayer that we can carry the blessings that Our Lady gives us to others. Prayer is our deep connection with Jesus and Mary.
“Today’s blessing which we give you, carry to your families and enrich all those whom you meet, that they may feel the grace which you are receiving.”
The blessing that Jesus and Mary gave to us on that Christmas Day was powerful. And it is available to us even today through prayer. And we can share it with others!! This is how the Kingdom of God is spread. One by one, through the incredible love of Jesus and Mary that is alive in our hearts.
I am getting excited about Christmas!!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

PS. The November 25, 2025 Message from Our Lady, the Queen of Peace!!
“Dear children! In this time of grace, I am calling you to follow me. Pray for those who do not pray and do not want peace and joy, which only the Most High can give. May your souls be united in the joy of expectancy and your heart will be filled with peace. You will be convinced, little children, that all will be good and that God will bless all; because the good that you give will return to you, and joy will enfold your heart because you are with God and in God. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (With ecclesiastical approval)
