The more you come to know Him!!

St. John Chrysostom

Dear Family of Mary!

“…My Son is the life of the world. The more that you come to know Him-the more that you come close to Him-all the more you will love Him, because my Son is love.” (September 2, 2018)

Our Lady speaks so simply to us. She could probably spout off the deepest theology and philosophy, making our heads spin with her penetrating explanations of Jesus. She could. But she never would. She speaks to her little ones, her children. Her words are deep, very deep, but they are simple.

“My Son is the life of the world. The more that you come to know Him-the more that you come close to Him-all the more you will love Him, because my Son is love.”

The only response to Jesus is love. If we do not love Him, we have not come to know Him, we have not come close to Him.

The Baltimore Catechism said in Lesson First: on the End of Man, Question 6:

Q. Why did God make you?

A. God made me to know Him, to love, Him and to Serve Him in this world, and to be happy with Him forever in heaven.”

It always struck me that we first have to “know Him” and then we move on to “love Him.” Love is enkindled by knowing Jesus. Love comes to birth in our souls as we become acquainted with Jesus, learn about Him, understand His life and how He died for our sins. Love bursts into flames when we finally open our hearts to an encounter with Jesus, because He is present and waiting for us to meet Him in prayer. Through prayer we get closer and closer to Jesus. And getting closer only feeds our love, because we know Him better and better that way.

It gives me such peace to know that God made us to know Him. He wants us to know Him. He can’t wait to show us more and more of Himself, even in eternity. His heart is open to being known!

And that knowing will be the fuel of love! We will love Him to distraction, forever! Because He is love, He is love, He is love!

It also makes me so peaceful to know that God made us to serve Him. Serving the Lord is what completes our loving Him. Love is frustrated until the lover can express that love in action, through serving the beloved. So, we can see how much God wants us to love Him truly, because He allows us to serve Him, because He wants our love to be complete, to be expressed, to be given!

Well, Our Lady may speak simply, but it is certain, she speaks with truth and power. Her messages are designed to bring us to her Son, who is the life of the world!! Thank you dearest Mother, for helping us to come to know your Son!

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!
