Mary:
My dear little children, peace be with you all. Know that I come to you as a mother, as a counselor, and an advocate. Know that I intercede on your behalf constantly before our Father in Heaven, offering to Him each of you as beautiful roses, as gifts, for His children are great in His eyes and He loves you without end.
Dear little ones, I invite you to accept God’s love, His healing, and His forgiveness. Our Lord in Heaven loves you so dearly, He reaches out to you. At every turn, at every chance, every day, in every moment, He reaches out to you. Through the faith He has planted in your hearts, through the friends and family He has given to you to be your support, to be your friends, through the Church that is your strength and your life, and His sacraments that do give you life and help you to live each day with the Spirit of God, within you, around you, and pouring forth from you. Dear little ones, our Lord reaches out to you without ceasing. He pours forth all blessings and all graces, all things that are good, that you might embrace Him, that you might embrace His will, that you might do as He has asked you to do, that you might love Him, love your neighbor, and love yourself as He does love.
Dear little ones, our Lord will never tire of coming to you, to find you, to seek you out, to reach His hands out to you and offer to you the greatest of gifts, salvation, and life with Him. Dear little ones, He has poured many blessings upon you. He has given to you blessings of the spirit, of the mind, of the body, of the soul. Dear little ones, He provides all that you need. His providence is good. Oftentimes those things that are so good, that He has provided, do distract you. They become, for you, stumbling blocks in your faith, in your prayer, in your life with God. Oftentimes in life, when you find yourself disappointed, failed, hurt, and angry, you turn away from the God Who has provided to you such graces, such innumerable graces, and the ability to forgive, and to love, and to move, and grow with Him.
Dear ones, I invite you today, to place in God’s hands all things that keep you from His love. Know that it is never God Who turns His love from His people. He will never turn His face from you. He will never reject you. He will never offer to you anything less than His warmest embrace, the embrace of a father to a child. It is in your pain and in your sufferings, in the hardships of your life, that oftentimes, you become distracted and lost. You turn your faces away from God and you find yourself struggling, struggling desperately with those things in life that are trials and tribulations. I ask you, this day, rather than go and live and do as you can do, struggling alone, embrace God. Invite Him to walk for you when you cannot walk, to talk for you when you have no words, to love for you when you cannot feel, to be your very hands and your feet, your eyes, and your ears, to be all that you are, for truly, by placing yourself so completely in the trust of God, you will find healing and strength. You will find in yourself the ability to forgive, the ability to love, the ability to live a life of joy even amidst troubles and trials.
Dear ones, the Lord is a God of healing. He came to this earth to teach, to heal, and to bless. How many He healed! How many sick, how many blind, how many poor and orphaned did He aid! Our Lord is a God Who loves you as you are. He is a God Who desires to provide all things for you. He concerns Himself with all that concerns you, from the smallest of worries to the greatest of trials. There is nothing that you can take to God that He will not accept and embrace. There is nothing He will not assist you with. Come before Him with all of your faults, with all of your needs, with all of your trials. Place in His hands your anger, your fears, your frustrations, and hurts, for it is these things that keep you from fully participating in the life of joy that God has given to you, that He has offered to you. Allow Him to take upon Himself your hurts and your pains as He took upon Himself the sins of the world. God did not design you to live a life of sorrow, of worry, of anxiety. He did not desire that you would live in a way that causes pain, in a way that causes you to be far from Him. Rather, He desires that you live in hope, live in joy, in His innumerable blessings.
Place yourself entirely in His care. Have the trust in your hearts that He will provide for you as any father provides for his children. He will not abandon you. He will not forsake you. He will lift you up and make you holy. He will raise you up. Just as He raised up His beloved Son, our Lord and Redeemer, the Father in Heaven raises you up too, for Christ took upon himself all that is unholy, all that is dark, all that is death, that you might live in life, in holiness, in joy, and in light.
Dear little ones, I recommend to you that you do this through prayer. I urge you to pray. The more you pray, the stronger you will become, for God gives His strength to His people. Dear little ones, when you cannot find the words, pray in silence, pray with your heart, pray with all that you feel and all that you know. Give to God all of your trials, all of your joys. Never cease to pray. Your prayers are great. Your prayers are most precious to our Lord. When you pray, the Lord, He communes with you. He instructs you. He inspires you. He leads you. Listen for His voice in your life through those He has sent to be leaders, through those He has sent to be friends, through the Church and your priests, through the sacraments He has given you, and the gifts of love He has placed in your life. He speaks to you loudly. He speaks to you plainly. Hear His words. Follow them, for they are a comfort and a joy to His people, an encouragement, a lifting up of the spirit and a source of great joy. Dear ones, entrust yourselves completely to God. Place in His hands all things and begin to live the life of hope and the life of joy He has designed for you.
My dear little ones, pray! Pray always without ceasing. Thank you for responding to my request for prayer. Continue to pray for you brothers and sisters in Christ, for prayer is such a gift and makes so many graces possible. Know that I bless you as your mother. Know that I come to you to deliver the good news that God is love and that you are His most precious children! Follow His way. Live in His light and know that He is with you.Mary:
