In this time of grace, I call you to prayer…

Dear Family of Mary!
Our Lady often speaks about being in a time of grace. She is so aware of the action of the Holy Spirit, that she can see what the Spirit is doing in the world in a precise way. She is the Spouse of the Holy Spirit! She is actually filled with the Holy Spirit! So she has eyes to see what the Holy Spirit is doing!
With this awareness, Our Lady comes to us to help us. We must look a bit like little blind newborn puppies!! We are not able to discern the Holy Spirit’s actions very well!
But Our Lady knows that we can grow in our awareness and understanding of the work of the Spirit. And so she speaks to us in so many ways to open us up and awaken us to the presence of Her Special Spouse!
Here is one such message in which Mother Mary calls us to prayer, so that we can actually begin to comprehend what the Spirit is doing in our lives. Listen to her motherly wisdom:

“Dear children!
At this time of grace,
I call you to prayer.
Little children,
you work much
but without God’s blessing.
Bless and seek
the wisdom of the Holy Spirit
to lead you at this time
so that you may comprehend
and live in the grace of this time.
Convert, little children,
and kneel in the silence of your hearts.
Put God in the center of your being
so that, in that way,
you can witness in joy the beauty
that God continually gives in your life.
Thank you for having responded to my call.”
We see how very much Our Lady operates in the power of the Holy Spirit. She sees that this is a time of grace, but that we obviously don’t see it! We work much but without God’s blessing! That is because we don’t seek to receive the Holy Spirit and understand the time of grace we are in.|
We need to pray, convert (which is turning towards God), and then we will be lead by the Holy Spirit into that time of grace we happen to be in!
Her words are a textbook for prayer:
Convert!
Kneel in the silence of your heart!
Put God in the center of your being!
In that way, you can witness in joy the beauty
that God continually gives in your life.
Every day, this needs to happen. The beauty we will witness is the healing power of the Holy Spirit! We need to be Spirit-filled Christians, so that we can cooperate with the grace of this time!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
