July 14, 2020 Reflection – The Grace of Conversion

Dear Family of Mary!

“…Return, little children, to prayer and open your hearts in this time of grace and set out on the way of conversion….”(June 25, 2020)

As Denis and I drove home from early morning Mass yesterday (July 13) I was overwhelmed with a thought that I believe was from God. I felt strongly that the Lord wanted me to know this one thing: He wanted me to know that now, in these days ahead, He wants to pour out upon our tired world a powerful grace of conversion. He wants to flood the entire world with an extraordinary grace for conversion for all souls, believers and unbelievers alike. But He needs our prayers to draw those graces down. He needs intercessors to pray for the souls to open to this grace.

I told Denis about this interior word that I received. And we began to pray for it to happen. We felt, in fact, that we should devote our prayers for this intention.

I am sharing this with all of you, for your discernment. If you feel in your hearts to pray for souls to open to the grace of conversion, that would be great!! I am sure that even if my word is just my own thought, it is still a great prayer petition! To pray for souls to open to the grace of conversion is an act of mercy, I think!! How many souls have no one to pray for them! We can be those prayer warriors. And so, it really is a win/win! Think of what a change the world would have if souls began to convert in big numbers!!!

Our Lady recently said to us:

August 25, 2019 “Dear children! Pray, work and witness with love for the Kingdom of Heaven that it may be good for you here on earth. Little children, God will bless your effort a hundredfold; you will be witnesses among peoples, souls of unbelievers will feel the grace of conversion and Heaven will be grateful for your efforts and sacrifices. Little children, witness with the Rosary in hand that you are mine and decide for holiness. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Our Lady tells us that God will bless our efforts a hundredfold, if we work for the Kingdom. Souls of unbelievers will feel the grace of conversion!! That is exactly what I was feeling. We now have the opportunity to save and bless many souls, hundreds of souls, maybe thousands of souls, through God’s blessing of our prayer. He wants to bring His children into his embrace. We can help by praying for the conversion of all souls in these most difficult days.

St. Faustina was given a short prayer to pray for the conversion of souls. Here is what Jesus taught her:

Today Jesus said to me, “I desire that you know more profoundly the love that burns in My Heart for souls, and you will understand this when you meditate upon My Passion. Call upon My mercy on behalf of sinners; I desire their salvation. When you say this prayer, with a contrite heart and with faith on behalf of some sinner, I will give him the grace of conversion.

This is the prayer:  O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You.” (Diary 186-187)

Let’s start praying this prayer for the conversion of souls. Of course, all our prayers will work, the Rosary, Holy Mass, the Divine Office, etc. Let’s pray up a storm for conversions!

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
