MY EVENING REFLECTION
A very short Message from Our Lady to Fr. Gobbi, titled 'I Have No Need of Human Means.'
Mary says to Fr. Gobbi that Her work continues when he offers Her his prayer and suffering! Suffering is redemptive and powerful when it is united with the sufferings of Jesus and Mary. Our Lady says that She has no need of human means to accomplish Her plans for the world, but She does need our prayer. Why? Because then we are doing the will of God and are united in the Communion of Saints; the souls who have made it to Heaven already; the souls in Purgatory, awaiting their release and entrance to the Father's Kingdom; and all of us here on earth who are in the Mystical Body of Christ. What a great prayer group we are!
Speaking about the Blue Book, (pictured above) which contains Our Lady's Messages, She says: 'Even the little book is only a means for the spread of My Movement.' It is an important means because it serves to make known Our Lady's love for her priest-sons. But it is all a special grace to believe and meditate on and live Her words. And this grace only comes from prayer, love, suffering, and even the humility to not being able to act!
Are you offering Our Lady your prayers and sufferings, so that She can present them to Our Lord? Are you making the Consecration to Mary's Heart everyday? Her last words today are, "Remain with Me always."
