Dear Family of Mary!
Here is the second half of the Creation account, found in Genesis 1:20 – 2:3! It is really good to read these anointed words with quiet hearts and minds, so that we can again realize our deep dependence upon God, for our entire being. This dependence is actually Heaven!
Genesis 1: 20 – 31
And God said, “Let the waters bring forth swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the firmament of the heavens.”
So God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.”And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so. And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and the cattle according to their kinds, and everything that creeps upon the ground according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
And God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.”
And God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food. And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food.” And it was so.
And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done. So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all his work which he had done in creation. (Genesis 1: 20 – 31)
God did everything He could to bless and care for us. He set up a world of plenty and peace. But we know the rest of the story. It is very sad, so sad. But no matter how much we have strayed from God, He always tries to draw us back to Himself.
And in these days, the Father has sent our Heavenly Mother, Mary most Holy, to draw us back to Himself again. And she has stayed with us for over 43 years, constantly encouraging us and correcting us so that we will grow ever closer to God and not fall away. Her messages are incredibly helpful to us. Here is one:

“Dear children! Today, I desire to thank you for your perseverance and call you to open yourselves to profound prayer. Prayer, little children, is the heart of faith and is hope in eternal life. Therefore, pray with the heart until your heart sings with thanksgiving to God the Creator who gave you life. I am with you, little children, and carry to you my motherly blessing of peace. Thank you for having responded to my call…”
May we respond to her call to profound prayer until our hearts sing with thanksgiving to God the Creator who gave us life!!!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
