A REFLECTION

'The Power of the Spirit' is Message #65 to Fr. Gobbi.

This Message was given on the Feast of St. Stephen, First Martyr and Deacon. Our Lady says that he was truly a little child, with a power of truthfulness; unshakable faith and strength of person! He was victorious over everyone by his powerful glance, his pure faith, and his love of God!

Mother Mary says that She knew he was to be the first martyr for Christ, and so She clasped him and encouraged him to be stronger and stronger. And when he was killed by stoning, the faithful followers brought his body to Our Lady and She once again clasped him to Her Heart, and the scene of Calvary was repeated . . .

Here Our Lady tells Fr. Gobbi that he too is called to be a crown of Her Immaculate and Sorrowful Heart. As a matter of fact, all of Her priest-sons will be this crown of love for Her. These little children of Mother Mary will be roses, lilies, and cyclamens surrounding Her Heart! And it will by the power of the Spirit that this will be done!

Yes, many of Our Lady's priests are called to this ultimate testimony, martyrdom, and their blood will wash and purify this world, so that a new world will be born, consecrated to the triumph of God!

The other day there was a discussion in Rome about the priest that was killed in Turkey a few weeks ago, and the nun murdered in Indonesia too. The question arose as to whether they were martyrs. The Cardinal who celebrated the memorial Mass for the deceased priest said that because they were killed by someone who hated Christ and Christianity, that was a cause for martyrdom! "But their blood will wash and purify the world", Our Lady said. It's been going on for 2000 years! May the Triumph come soon and end the bloodshed!
Deacon John
