Open yourselves to God by means of prayer…


 
Come, Holy Spirit!

Dear Family of Mary!

During this time before Pentecost, I feel it is very important to give time in prayer to our relationship to the Holy Spirit. We have 19 days left before the Feast of Pentecost. Nine of those days will be dedicated to the Novena to the Holy Spirit! The other ten days we can use to prepare us for the Novena! I will dedicate my reflections to this preparation by taking a message from Our Lady and giving it some time, some attention!

Here is the message for today:

May 25, 1993 “Dear children! Today I invite you to open yourselves to God by means of prayer, so the Holy Spirit may begin to work miracles in you and through you. I am with you and I intercede before God for each one of you because, dear children, each one of you is important in my plan of salvation. I invite you to be carriers of good and peace. God can give you peace only if you convert and pray. Therefore, my dear little children, pray, pray, pray and do that which the Holy Spirit inspires you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Opening ourselves to God is a life-long process. It is like conversion. It is a daily task. Our hearts do not just stay open to God. They easily close up. There are lots of reasons for the closing. For me it can be anxiety. I see the list of things I have to do, and I get nervous, even afraid. I have to “make” myself perform, no matter what. And my eyes get focused entirely on myself and God is forgotten. The only thing for me at that moment is the work and my anxiety about it.

This is only one way that we can become closed. There are many inner states of mind that can close us up. Fear, unforgiveness, envy, woundedness, inordinate desires, and on and on. But the closed heart cannot receive from God. In that state the Holy Spirit cannot enter and begin to work through us. Closed hearts reject the Holy Spirit.

Our Lady says that the Spirit wants to work miracles in us and through us! She says that she wants us to be important parts of her plans of salvation for the world. How sad it is that we are invited to such a wonderful work and yet we can close ourselves off and say “no” to these gifts of grace due to our self-absorption.

God needs us! Our Lady needs us! They need us to be carriers of good and peace. This can only happen if we get our eyes off of ourselves and open our hearts to the God who loves us and sends His Spirit to us, to heal us, work miracles through us and help Our Lady in her plans of peace.

How have I closed my heart to You, Lord, today. Please show me so that I can convert and open myself to you now!!

In Jesus Mary and Joseph!

Our Lady Speaks

Vicka's Note MaryTV

Vicka, one of the visionaries in Medjugorje, wrote the note (above) after Our Lady spoke with her during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about Mary TV’s  plan to build a television facility in Medjugorje.

Vicka wrote to Denis: “Our Lady says that the plan is good – but you need to wait a little.  Now you can get prepared little by little, until Our Lady tells when the right moment is.  You don’t need to hurry, make haste, but to be patient.”

When Our Lady said this to Vicka, the technical genius in Medjugorje that she had her eyes upon, who would begin Mary TV’s live streaming from Medjugorje, was seven years old.

Totus Tuus (Totally Yours)

Immaculate Conception, Mary my Mother, Live in me, Act in me, Speak in me and through me, Think your thoughts in my mind, Love through my heart, Give me your dispositions and feelings, Teach, lead me and guide me to Jesus, Correct, enlighten and expand my thoughts and behavior, Possess my soul, Take over my entire personality and life, replace it with Yourself, Incline me to constant adoration, Pray in me and through me, Let me live in you and keep me in this union always.

Our Lady gave this prayer 25 years before She started appearing in Medjugorje. This prayer is being answered through Our Lady’s presence in Medjugorje and through Her messages. Mother Immaculata writes: “This is Mary’s hour and She is about to crush Satan’s head. Her very being is like incandescent heat in the center of the Trinity and the manifestation of Her power is growing daily. The Immaculate Conception prayer (which is what Our Lady called the prayer she gave me for union with Her) has been used by exorcists who have told me that the devil reacts violently to it and is subdued by it. We are praying daily for the success of Mary TV!“

Our Lady Gives A Sign…

Mary_with_Sun

MARY TV was LIVE STREAMING Ivan’s May 24, 2013 apparition on Mt. Podbrdo (Apparition Hill) in Medjugorje. My wife, Cathy, was praying in front of her computer in the US, connected through the Internet, welcoming Our Lady along with everyone gathered on the mountain. She couldn’t see anything on her computer screen because it was late at night and Ivan had said, “No lights.” She found herself asking Our Lady for a sign – a little light – as a sign that MARY TV was on the right track and really serving her. Just after the apparition, when she went to give an account on Mary TV’s Facebook page, the page opened with this picture that she had never seen before, captioned: “MARY APPEARS OVER BUILDING IN MEDJUGORJE, PHOTO TAKEN BY PILGRIM.” Our Lady is standing directly over MARY TV’s studios, her feet right where we have two POV cameras STREAMING 24/7 LIVE TO THE WORLD Apparition Hill & Cross Mountain!

ASK JESUS IF HE’D LIKE YOU TO START SENDING A MONTHLY DONATION TO MARY TV.
TO CONTINUE SAILING WITH OUR LADY UPON THE DIGITAL SEA THIS BOAT NEEDS FINANCIAL HELP.

Our Lady spoke to Vicka during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about the importance of Mary TV’s mission. At that time she told Vicka that she herself (Our Lady) would begin Mary TV! She did! But she didn’t do it alone. The generosity of her children made Mary TV a reality for her. Your generosity is needed now for it to continue!
