Dear Family of Mary!
“Dear children! My heart is joyful because through these years I see your love and openness to my call. Today I am calling all of you: pray with me for peace and freedom, because Satan is strong and by his deception, wants to lead away all the more hearts from my motherly heart. That is why decide for God so that it may be good for you on the earth which God gave you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (June 25, 2021)
These are the words Our Lady gave to us on the 40th Anniversary of her coming to us in Medjugorje. She began by giving thanks to all of us who have loved her and have received her call with open hearts. She told us that her heart is joyful because of our response to her call!!
“Dear children! My heart is joyful because through these years I see your love and openness to my call.”
Our Lady is such a humble and loving Mother. She speaks of her heart to us. She is sharing her deepest feelings, feelings that come from the heart. This means that she feels very comfortable with us. We are her dear ones, her family. Why? Because you don’t go up to strangers and speak about your heart and the joy it feels at their presence. This language is reserved for those who are loved intimately and tenderly!
Our Lady is truly our Mother. She loves us with a mother’s heart. And her mother’s heart is alive with love for us.
If you watch a mother who has young children you will get a glimpse of what Our Lady must have felt like on the 40th, seeing her children present for the celebration. When little ones come running, even if it is just from another room, and they approach their mother, often at full speed to greet her, the mother’s face lights up, her eyes gleam, her cheeks flush, and she smiles from ear to ear. Nothing could make her happier than the approach of her little ones. Nothing!!
It is the same for our Mother, Mary. She says that her heart is joyful! That is her understatement. If we could see her, we would see that same mother’s joy at the approach of her little ones. We would see her face light up with love, her eyes sparkle with anticipation, her cheeks flush. She loves us in just that sort of way. Her heart is joyful because through these years she has seen our love and openness to her call!!!
Are we not the most blessed of children!! We have a Mother who loves us with her whole heart. We have a Mother who is with us in these most difficult times, and who has not left us. We have a Mother from Heaven!!
Thank you, dearest Mother for having come to us for 40 years with love, peace, hope, truth, grace, wisdom, understanding, patience, and protection. We want to respond to your call with trust and love!
In Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!
