You build peace in the world!
September 16, 2022
Dear Family of Mary!
Our Lady spoke to us about the future and about peace in her most recent message. In fact she asked us to help her to build a future full of peace, through our own personal peace which will encourage peace in others. Here is that message again:
“Dear children! God permits me to be with you and to lead you on the way of peace, so that through personal peace, you build peace in the world. I am with you and intercede for you before my Son Jesus, that He may give you a strong faith and hope in a better future, which I desire to build up with you. You be courageous and do not be afraid, because God is with you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (August 25, 2022)
Our Lady has used the word “build” only a few times in her messages. I like the word “build” because it implies a very careful and premeditated plan of action. Building requires careful thought, plans, tools, measurement and detail. There are a lot of houses being built in my neighborhood these days, and I am fascinated at the precision and thought that goes into building.
So when Our Lady calls us to “build peace in the world,” she is calling us to be careful and thoughtful in our approach to that building process. I think her 5 stones are wonderful tools that are precisely what we need to build peace. Our personal holiness is the platform for building peace in our families, neighborhoods, cities and countries. We can be sure that we will be opposed, but even in that, our holiness can help to build peace, even in our enemies.
Well, I am giving you some homework for the weekend. I have included four messages below, in which Our Lady speaks of building peace. She wants us to be careful construction crews in our own homes, making it possible for peace to grow. Take these messages to prayer, over the course of the weekend, and see what the Lord says to you about building peace. Especially ask Him how you can achieve personal peace!!
December 25, 1992 “Dear children! I desire to place all of you under my mantle and protect you from all satanic attacks. Today is a day of peace, but in the whole world there is a great lack of peace. That is why I call you all to build a new world of peace with me through prayer. This I cannot do without you, and this is why I call all of you with my motherly love and God will do the rest. So, open yourselves to God’s plan and to His designs to be able to cooperate with Him for peace and for everything that is good. Do not forget that your life does not belong to you, but is a gift with which you must bring joy to others and lead them to eternal life. May the tenderness of the little Jesus always accompany you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
August 2, 2010 “Dear children! Today I call you, together with me, to begin to build the Kingdom of Heaven in your hearts; that you may forget what is personal and, led by the example of my Son, think of what is of God. What does He desire of you? Do not permit satan to open the paths of earthly happiness, the paths without my Son. My children, they are false and last a short while. My Son exists. I offer you eternal happiness and peace and unity with my Son, with God; I offer you the Kingdom of God. Thank you.”
November 25, 2020 “Dear children! This is a time of love, warmth, prayer and joy. Pray, little children, for little Jesus to be born in your hearts. Open your hearts to Jesus who gives Himself to each of you. God sent me to be joy and hope in this time, and I am saying to you: Without little Jesus you do not have the tenderness or the feeling of Heaven which is hidden in the Newborn. Therefore, little children, work on yourselves. By reading the Sacred Scripture you will discover Jesus’ birth and joy, as in the first days which Medjugorje gave to humanity. History will be truth which, also today, is being repeated in you and around you. Work on and build peace through the Sacrament of Confession. Reconcile with God, little children, and you will see miracles around you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
May 25, 2022 “Dear children! I am looking at you and thanking God for each of you, because He permits me to still be with you, to encourage you to holiness. Little children, peace is disturbed and Satan wants peacelessness. That is why, may your prayer be even stronger so that every unclean spirit of division and war may be stilled. Be builders of peace and carriers of the joy of the Risen One in you and around you, for the good to win in every man. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
