Daily Reflections by Cathy
June 19, 2021 Reflection – 40th Anniversary Novena, Day 5
Be strong in faith!
Day 5 of our Novena before the 40th Anniversary:
January 25, 2021 “Dear children! I am calling you at this time to prayer, fasting and renunciation, that you may be stronger in faith. This is a time of awakening and of giving birth. As nature, which gives itself, you also, little children, ponder how much you have received. Be joyful bearers of peace and love that it may be good for you on earth. Yearn for Heaven; and in Heaven there is no sorrow or hatred. That is why, little children, decide anew for conversion and let holiness begin to reign in your life. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
Our Lady started us off in 2021 with some strong directives:
A call to prayer, fasting and renunciation…
A call to be stronger in faith…
A call to awaken and give birth…
A call to ponder how much you have received…
A call to be joyful bearers of peace and love…
A call to yearn for Heaven…
A call to have no sorrow or hatred…
A call to decide anew for conversion…
A call to let holiness begin to reign in your life….
We see that Our Lady doesn’t coddle us! She has big plans for us that require holiness, strength and discipline. Mary has big plans for new awakenings and new births into holiness!!
Let us pray:
How to Give Oneself to Mary, Mother of Goodness, of Love and of Mercy
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
