February 10, 2022 Reflection – You should live by prayer…

Dear Family of Mary!

Our Lady gave this powerful advice through Jelena in 1983:

Sunday, December 4, 1983 (To Jelena)
“Pray, pray, pray only.
Prayer should be for you,
not only a habit,
but also a source of goodness.
You should live by prayer.”

I believe that we are learning in these days the truth of Our Lady’s words in 1983. We can no longer go through life on automatic. We must be in a serious, one on one relationship with Jesus, if we are to find our way to heaven. The battle has grown intense.

I heard these gentle words during prayer recently: “Don’t waste a prayer…” It seems like Our Lady was saying that very thing to Jelena in 1983. In her sweet way, Our Lady was advising her and all of us to double down on our prayer, make every word count, and to pray as if our lives depend upon it. Indeed, we know that they do!

Denis shared in Stories from Denis #1, how he was clinging so desperately to prayer in the early years of our marriage. He prayed with his entire being, asking for God to heal our marriage. You might want to watch that episode, to get an idea of how prayer can become life, and what God did for Denis! Here is the link to the video:

“Pray, pray, pray only.
Prayer should be for you,
not only a habit,
but also a source of goodness.
You should live by prayer.”

May we all in these days, live by prayer!

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
