September 21, 2020 Reflection – Just the way you are!

St. Matthew, Apostle and Evangelist

Dear Family of Mary!

In Fr. Leon’s reflection for the 18th Day of the 33 Day Consecration to Jesus through Mary, he shared something amazing and encouraging.  I will quote him:

The Reflection for today:  If we wait until we are perfect to serve God, we will never serve Him because we will never be perfect.  There was a man who felt he was always saying the wrong thing when speaking to people, so he decided to stop speaking.  This went on for a whole week.  A friend of his asked him why he was silent all the time.  He explained his reason for it.  The friend told him how foolish this was.  “God has made you an outgoing, chatty person.  He is using you in that way to touch many hearts.” We should not be afraid of making mistakes.  We should be more afraid of not serving God in the freedom of our personality.  As Saint Irenaeus said, “The glory of God is a man fully alive.”

Fr. Leon brings to the fore something very important.  God has made each one of us completely unique!  We have a collection of gifts that make us one of a kind!!  And He loves to see us grow into the person we are created to be, with joy and gratitude, sharing who we are for the sake of others.  The only thing that can spoil this creation is sin, as we all know.  So that is why we must offer ourselves to the Lord constantly, trusting that He will help us to become freer and freer of sin, and more ready to love!

Our Lady has told us many times that she has chosen us, with our unique and singular gifts, just the way we are!  She understands the infinite variety of God’s creation, and she knows that each one of us is made, like snowflakes, as one of a kind!  She has said to us:

October 25, 2015 “…Little children, decide also today for holiness and take the example of the saints of this time and you will see that holiness is a reality for all of you. Rejoice in the love, little children, that in the eyes of God you are unrepeatable and irreplaceable, because you are God’s joy in this world. Witness peace, prayer and love…”

May 24, 1984 “Dear children! I have told you already that I have chosen you in a special way, just the way you are…”

April 02, 2015 “Dear children, I have chosen you, my apostles, because all of you carry something beautiful within you. You can help me to have the love, for the sake of which my Son died and then resurrected, win anew…”

Maybe we can take some time today to thank the Lord for how He created us, and ask Him to show us how we can make a return for His creative love for us, by loving Him back, just the way we are!!

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

Pope St. John Paul II – February 24, 1990

“Dear children, my real, living presence among you should make you happy because this is the great love of my Son. He is sending me among you so that, with a motherly love, I may grant you safety!”

Our Lady of Medjugorje – July 2, 2016

“Rejoice, little children, because God is merciful and loves you all with His immeasurable love and leads you to the way of salvation through my coming here!”

Our Lady of Medjugorje – June 25, 2018

Our Lady Speaks

Vicka's Note MaryTV

Vicka, one of the visionaries in Medjugorje, wrote the note (above) after Our Lady spoke with her during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about Mary TV’s  plan to build a television facility in Medjugorje.

Vicka wrote to Denis: “Our Lady says that the plan is good – but you need to wait a little.  Now you can get prepared little by little, until Our Lady tells when the right moment is.  You don’t need to hurry, make haste, but to be patient.”

When Our Lady said this to Vicka, the technical genius in Medjugorje that she had her eyes upon, who would begin Mary TV’s live streaming from Medjugorje, was seven years old.

Totus Tuus (Totally Yours)

Immaculate Conception, Mary my Mother, Live in me, Act in me, Speak in me and through me, Think your thoughts in my mind, Love through my heart, Give me your dispositions and feelings, Teach, lead me and guide me to Jesus, Correct, enlighten and expand my thoughts and behavior, Possess my soul, Take over my entire personality and life, replace it with Yourself, Incline me to constant adoration, Pray in me and through me, Let me live in you and keep me in this union always.

Our Lady gave this prayer 25 years before She started appearing in Medjugorje. This prayer is being answered through Our Lady’s presence in Medjugorje and through Her messages. Mother Immaculata writes: “This is Mary’s hour and She is about to crush Satan’s head. Her very being is like incandescent heat in the center of the Trinity and the manifestation of Her power is growing daily. The Immaculate Conception prayer (which is what Our Lady called the prayer she gave me for union with Her) has been used by exorcists who have told me that the devil reacts violently to it and is subdued by it. We are praying daily for the success of Mary TV!“

Our Lady Gives A Sign…

Mary_with_Sun

MARY TV was LIVE STREAMING Ivan’s May 24, 2013 apparition on Mt. Podbrdo (Apparition Hill) in Medjugorje. My wife, Cathy, was praying in front of her computer in the US, connected through the Internet, welcoming Our Lady along with everyone gathered on the mountain. She couldn’t see anything on her computer screen because it was late at night and Ivan had said, “No lights.” She found herself asking Our Lady for a sign – a little light – as a sign that MARY TV was on the right track and really serving her. Just after the apparition, when she went to give an account on Mary TV’s Facebook page, the page opened with this picture that she had never seen before, captioned: “MARY APPEARS OVER BUILDING IN MEDJUGORJE, PHOTO TAKEN BY PILGRIM.” Our Lady is standing directly over MARY TV’s studios, her feet right where we have two POV cameras STREAMING 24/7 LIVE TO THE WORLD Apparition Hill & Cross Mountain!

ASK JESUS IF HE’D LIKE YOU TO START SENDING A MONTHLY DONATION TO MARY TV.
TO CONTINUE SAILING WITH OUR LADY UPON THE DIGITAL SEA THIS BOAT NEEDS FINANCIAL HELP.

Our Lady spoke to Vicka during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about the importance of Mary TV’s mission. At that time she told Vicka that she herself (Our Lady) would begin Mary TV! She did! But she didn’t do it alone. The generosity of her children made Mary TV a reality for her. Your generosity is needed now for it to continue!

On Saturday, Nov. 23 Mary TV will LIVE Stream Ivan’s apparition and an Evening of Prayer for Peace, beginning at 5:00pm (EST) in St. Leonard’s Church in Boston.
There will be a special guest speaker!
Our Lady is telling us: “I need you!  Together with you I am able to fulfill my plans.”
