NIGHT REFLECTION
'A Sign of Contradiction,' is Message #91 to Fr. Gobbi.
Our Lady is telling Her priest-sons not to be troubled because they are not understood and openly criticized and persecuted! She allows this so they will rely on Her instead of any creatures. Lean on the Mother's Heart, She says. Let yourself be carried in My arms as the Baby Jesus was. Jesus Himself allowed this and even allowed Mother Mary to carry Him into the Temple for the Presentation, where He was offered to the Father on Our Lady's Heart!
I always say that little prayer "Grant me the grace to place myself in Your arms, dearest Mother, as a little infant." Then I know I am safe from the terrors of this world and whatever happens to me, Our Lady will protect and take care of me. And She always does!
But when the old man Simeon took Jesus in his arms, he exclaimed: "This Child is destined to be a sign of contradiction and a sword, O Mother, will pierce Your soul." (Luke 2:34-35) Our Lady says that we also, Her little children, consecrated to Her Immaculate Heart, will be called today to be this sign of contradiction.
By our lives, because we will live the Gospel to the letter. In these days, the Gospel of Jesus is disbelieved, and even in the Church there are some who interpret the Gospel in a human and symbolic way. I've heard it many times myself. And it makes my stomach sick when I hear them denying the reality of the Gospel.
By our word; it's up to us to proclaim the truth of the Gospel! Many betray this truth as they try to please the world with false illusions; they think they become better understood, or listened to or followed by the people. Deceived by Satan, they have lost their faith!
Our Lady says to always announce the Gospel with fidelity and clarity! Say "Yes, Yes-No, No." (Matt. 5:37) Everything else comes from the Evil One! Let the Pope and the Church united with him be your guide, He is proclaiming the truth but his voice is not listened to. My motherly Heart is again pierced by a sword, She says, as She sees the Holy Father abandoned even by his brother-priests; he is left more and more alone.
By our witness; Our Lady wants us to be the light and example for all the Church! But the witness, ordained by the Father, will be more and more painful! It's the road to the Cross. So we will be misunderstood, criticized, persecuted and rejected; but so was Jesus whose footsteps we will walk in!
Our Lady says that when they attack you or the Movement, answer with prayer, silence and forgiveness. Continue to live with simplicity and trust in Her Immaculate Heart. The day will come when we will be called to openly struggle against the forces of evil. It will be here before you know it!
