Mary:

My dear little ones, may God be ever present with you. Know that I come bearing His graces, His blessings, the fruit of His goodness. Know that I come in His name as His messenger to bring to you a message of peace, a message of hope, and a message of love.

Dear little ones, you are so in need of peace. Your world, it hungers for peace. Peace is essential. There must be peace! In your world, peace is defined very differently than it is in the eyes of God. In your world, you seek peace that you might all strive to do that which you will with the freedom to seek your own desires, your own needs, all that you desire, without fear of violence, without fear of suppression. Peace, in this world, is a fragile thing. It is fleeting. It is imperfect. Peace, in this world, is a means to self love, a means to envy, a means to seeking that which one desires above all else, even at the expense of all others. When the world speaks of peace, it speaks of a time of selfishness, of freedom to choose what is good only for oneself.

I tell you that the peace of God, it is a much greater thing, for unlike the peace that you know in this world, the peace of God is a joy. It is a perfect joy! The peace that God desires to extend to you, to pour forth upon you and bless you with, is a peace that is also a freedom, but a greater freedom. It is the freedom for you, with your own will, with your own heart, with your own mind, created individually by God Who loves you more than all of creation, it is the freedom for you to use these things to choose to serve. It is the freedom to choose to put the will of God, the needs of others, above your own, above your desires, above your wants and your cares. The peace of God is a joy, for when you live in His peace you live with great humility and awe for the wonderful blessings He has put into your life, and a love for your fellow man. The peace of God is perfect. It is unfailing. The peace of God is most beautiful. When you live in the peace of God, you live to serve. You seek to know God through prayer. It is to know God through prayer, through the Church, through the Sacraments, through one another. When you live in His peace, you seek to obey. You live in humility. You live with a simple life, a simple desire to be an instrument of God. The peace that the world offers, it is not lasting. It is empty and it is shallow, but the peace that God extends to you, the peace that He brings, the peace that He sends me with, is a peace that, truly, will fill you and free you in ways that you have not known before.

The world enslaves my little children. The world teaches my children that they are not free, that they must follow their own desires, that they are no greater than that of the nature of an animal. I tell you, this is not so, for God has raised you up above all else. He has created you in His Own image. Into you, He has breathed His Own life, that you might have an eternal soul, a soul that will live and reside in His glory and in His love for always.

Dear little ones, do not believe that which the world has told you. Do not allow the world to discourage you, to take away your hope, to give to you false peace. I tell you, all that you know here is passing. All that you see, it is temporal. In God, all things exist in perfection. His only desire is to love His children, to be with His children, to lead and to guide His children, that they might join Him in the home He has prepared.

Dear little ones, strive to have His peace in your life. It is the peace that is acquired through prayer, through much prayer. Dear little ones, as you pray you intimately come into the presence of God. He fills your own heart and your own soul. He heals the wounds that you have acquired in this world. He breathes into you new life and new strength. He gives to you the power of the Holy Spirit that you might have wisdom, grace, courage, a boldness in your faith, and a deep gratitude for the beautiful gifts God has given to you. When you live in His peace and accept the gift of His peace, you will know tremendous joy, you will know tremendous love, and you will not have a day pass in which you do not see the hand of God working in your life.

I come to you often, extending the peace of Christ. I speak these words to you that you might hear and understand that this peace that I speak of is not a peace that is temporal. It is not a peace that will fail. Rather, it is the perfect expression of God’s love for you, for it is enduring, it is eternal, and it will free you from all things that in your own individual hearts, in your own wills, in your own desires, with your own mind that God Himself shaped and molded, that you might have the freedom to choose to love.

To love is a choice. It is not something that comes easily. It is not something that comes without crosses to bear, but I tell you, if you should suffer your crosses with patience, if you desire to love in all things even when it is most difficult, God will be with you to strengthen you. He will not abandon you. He will not leave you. Rather, He will be glorified through your actions and He, in His perfect love, in His tremendous majesty, will glorify you.

Dear ones, know that God has lifted you up. He has raised you above all things. He has loved you to the point of dying and rising for your own salvation, that He might be eternally with you. The love that God has for you is without measure. The graces that He desires to pour upon you, they are unimaginable! Open your hearts to His peace, that you might receive this gift, that you might live a life of humility, obedience, and service, and that your eyes might be truly unveiled, you may not be blinded by the lies which the world has told you, but you might see that you are truly a most beautiful creation of God, destined to serve Him, to give Him glory, to know Him, to love Him, and to be loved by Him.

Dear little ones, I come to you extending my motherly blessing. I offer the peace of Christ to you. I bring to you the graces of God. Know that I continue to pray for you and intercede on your behalf. I thank you for the prayers that you have offered for my intentions. I ask you to continue to pray, for with prayer many graces are possible and the peace of God, not the peace of man, will fill this earth. God’s peace will triumph and all of creation shall call Him Lord. Continue to pray. Know that your prayers are most beautiful. They are a great, great gift and they are most necessary.

Dear children, I bless you in the name of God and I offer to you the peace of Christ. May you live in His mercy and in His graces always. Know that I am with you.Mary:
