“Lord, please let me see…”

Dear Family of Mary!
The October 25, 2025 Message:
“Dear children! The Most High in His goodness gave me to you to lead you on the way of peace. Many have responded and are praying, but there are many creatures who do not have peace and have not come to know the God of love. Therefore, little children, pray and love, create prayer groups to encourage each other to the good. I am with you and am praying for your conversion. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (With Ecclesiastical approval)
In today’s Gospel reading, Jesus encounters a blind mand sitting by the roadside. When the man is told it is Jesus of Nazareth passing by, he calls out repeatedly. After all his life, spent in darkness, he is given hope! “Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!”
Luke 18:35-43
As Jesus approached Jericho a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging, and hearing a crowd going by, he inquired what was happening. They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.” He shouted, “Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!” The people walking in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent, but he kept calling out all the more, “Son of David, have pity on me!” Then Jesus stopped and ordered that he be brought to him; and when he came near, Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” He replied, “Lord, please let me see.” Jesus told him, “Have sight; your faith has saved you.” He immediately received his sight and followed him, giving glory to God. When they saw this, all the people gave praise to God.
The Gospel of the Lord.
I am so edified by the way Jesus interacted with the blind man. Jesus did not assume anything, but asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” This question gave the blind man his dignity. It showed how much Jesus respected him, his free will, and his soul. Jesus wanted to have a conversation with this man. He loves each of us in the same way. He wants us to relate to him, personally, and from our hearts. He doesn’t just barge in and start changing us. He offers his help and his companionship.
Our Lady gave a beautiful message to Mirjana in which she tells us that she wants us to have a relationship with her Son, Jesus. She doesn’t want us to only yell out from the roadside, asking for pity. She wants us to come close to Jesus and live in a relationship with Him that will last for eternity! She wants us to become His friends, bearing witness to Him and His truth with our lives. She told us:
March 18, 2023 (to Mirjana)
“Dear children, I am calling you, through prayer and mercy, to come to know my Son all the better; to learn to listen with a pure and open heart; to listen to what my Son is saying to you in order to come to see spiritually. That, as one people of God in communion with my Son, you may bear witness to the truth with your life. Pray, my children, that, together with my Son, you can bring only peace, joy and love to all your brothers and sisters. I am with you and am blessing you with a motherly blessing.”
May we all grow in a personal relationship with Jesus, day by day, through our personal prayer. We need to come to see spiritually, just like the blind man came to see physically, through the love of Jesus.
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
