We are in an awful state that empasses the culture, the family, and the individual. Corruption is rampant throughout the world. In the United States, the government just passed a health care law by unprecedented illicit force that will lead to blatant abortion, the overriding of one’s conscience, euthanasia, the practice of choosing who will receive care according to the value of dollars spent related to healthy age vs. old age, chronic sickness, being handicapped, etc.
Many Christians, Christian organizations, the U.S. Bishops Conference all opposed this heinous new law. But what are we to do? The dark road we are going down shows no prospect of a light at the end of the tunnel. Our Lady has taught us, we are the ones responsible, for it is we as Christians who have contributed to setting the stage of so much darkness that has accumulated in the world. Our Lady gives specific instructions on how to once again find joy in the midst of the accumulation of evil that is destroying the culture. Our Lady said:
February 25, 1987
“…I beseech you, surrender to the Lord your entire past, all the evil that has accumulated in your hearts…Therefore… pray, and in prayer you shall realize a new way of joy. Joy will manifest in your hearts and thus you shall be joyful witnesses…”
You are given the formula to attack and advance against darkness. It begins with you. Tonight kneel in a quiet place, settling your heart. Look at your past. Look how you’ve contributed to the growing darkness. Examine yourself without pretense, but with a real state of reality. Enter deep into prayer and pray.
“I surrender to you, Lord, my entire past and all the evil that has accumulated in my heart. Make me happy and to realize a new way of joy, and for this joy to manifest in my heart. Amen.”
Pray many Rosaries per day, 6, 8, even 10 mysteries, and repeat Our Lady’s formula at the end of the day for the change of yourself. Because it is you who make up the culture and, thereby, the world. This is Our Lady’s plan. This is the means and the power to change things.
With Hope,
