Dear Family of Mary!
We continue our journey in time with the June 25th messages of Our Lady! The three we have today are very powerful.
In the 10th Anniversary message Our Lady asked us to witness her presence to all those around us. It is true that if we don’t share her presence with others, they will not know about it. She needs us:
June 25, 1991 “Dear children! Today on this great day which you have given to me, I desire to bless all of you and to say: these days while I am with you are days of grace. I desire to teach you and help you to walk the way of holiness. There are many people who do not desire to understand my messages and to accept with seriousness what I am saying. But you I therefore call and ask that by your lives and by your daily living you witness my presence. If you pray, God will help you to discover the true reason for my coming. Therefore, little children, pray and read the Sacred Scriptures so that through my coming you discover the message in Sacred Scripture for you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
The next year Our Lady was a little sad. Why? Many who had begun to follow her had left the path. She loves each one of us, and so this turning away from her caused her sorrow. I imagine she was also a little sad because of the war that was beginning in the Balkans. She stayed with the people and was their strength, showing them the way to peace:
June 25, 1992 “Dear children! Today I am happy, even if in my heart there is still a little sadness for all those who have started on this path and then have left it. My presence here is to take you on a new path, the path to salvation. This is why I call you, day after day to conversion. But if you do not pray, you cannot say that you are on the way to being converted. I pray for you and I intercede to God for peace; first peace in your hearts and also peace around you, so that God may be your peace. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
In 1993 Our Lady told us that “these are special times…” Indeed they were special. There was a war raging in the Balkans. And so she told us that she wanted to protect us:
June 25, 1993 “Dear children! Today I also rejoice at your presence here. I bless you with my motherly blessing and intercede for each one of you before God. I call you anew to live my messages and to put them into life and practice. I am with you and bless all of you day by day. Dear children, these are special times and, therefore, I am with you to love and protect you; to protect your hearts from satan and to bring you all closer to the heart of my Son, Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
The next year Our Lady was rejoicing again, because many pilgrims were coming back. She wanted them to be living her messages even more, now that peace was returning:
June 25, 1994 “Dear children! Today I rejoice in my heart in seeing you all present here. I bless you and I call you all to decide to live my messages which I give you here. I desire, little children, to guide you all to Jesus because He is your salvation. Therefore, little children, the more you pray the more you will be mine and of my Son, Jesus. I bless you all with my motherly blessing and I thank you for having responded to my call.”
Our Mother brought the parish and the pilgrims through a very tough time in the early 90’s. The war had really been a trial for the local people. Yet, somehow, Our Lady kept them safe, and gave them peace during those years. And many pilgrims became missionaries, bringing aid for the area. It was a time of great love, lived with faith. And we can look back and learn from the brave people that lived Our Lady’s messages, even in war.
Let us pray:
How to Give Oneself to Mary, Mother of Goodness, of Love and of Mercy
(Given by Our Lady to Jelena Vasilj, 4/19/1984)
Oh my Mother!
Mother of goodness, love and mercy!
I love you immensely, and I offer myself to you.
Through your goodness, your love,
And your mercy, save me!
I wish to be yours.
I love you immensely
And I wish that you protect me.
In my heart, oh mother of goodness,
Give me your goodness,
So that I go to Heaven.
I ask you for your immense love
That you may give me the grace
That I will be able to love each one
Just like you loved Jesus Christ.
I ask you in grace
That I be able to be merciful* to you.
I offer myself completely to you
And I wish that you will be with me at each step,
Because you are full of grace.
I wish never to forget your grace,
And if I should lose it,
I will ask, make me find it again. Amen.
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
