Intensify your personal prayer…
March 13, 2023
Dear Family of Mary!
Today I want to return to Our Lady’s call to us:
February 25, 2023 “Dear children! Keep converting and clothe yourselves in penitential garments and in personal, deep prayer…”
Our Lady gave some very direct advice about personal prayer in the 80’s. I think her simple words will help us to decide for personal, deep prayer in these decisive days:
Thursday, November 17, 1983 (To Jelena):“Pray! If I always ask you to pray, do not think that your prayers are not good. But I invite you to prolong your personal prayer, to pray more intensely for the others.”
Holy Thursday, April 19, 1984 (to Jelena):“I’m going to reveal a spiritual secret to you: if you want to be stronger than evil, make yourself a plan of personal prayer. Take a certain time in the morning, read a text from Holy Scripture, anchor the Divine word in your heart, and strive to live it during the day, particularly during the moment of trials. In this way, you will be stronger than evil.”
Saturday, November 17, 1984 (To Jelena):”Pray. Do not ask yourself about the reason why I constantly invite you to prayer. Intensify your personal prayer so that it will become a channel for the others.”
February 25, 1991 “Dear children! Today, I invite you to decide for God, because distance from god is the fruit of the lack of peace in your hearts. God is only peace. Therefore, approach Him through your personal prayer and then live peace in your hearts and in this way peace will flow from your hearts like a river into the whole world. Do not talk about peace, but make peace. I am blessing each of you and each good decision of yours. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
In this time of spiritual warfare, we cannot afford to let our personal prayer slacken. We will only be part of the victory of Heaven, if we are connected to Heaven now, through prayer. God needs us. Our Lady needs us. Our families need us. Let us renew our efforts at personal, deep prayer. Amen!!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
