Dear Family of Mary!
"You, my children, my dear apostles, you are always gathering around me anew, because you are thirsty. You thirst for peace, love and happiness. Drink out of my hands. My hands are offering to you my Son who is the spring of clear water. He will bring your faith back to life and purify your hearts, because my Son loves pure hearts and pure hearts love my Son. Only pure hearts are humble and have firm faith. I ask for such hearts of you, my children." (October 2, 2014)
Our
Lady knows us through and through. She knows that we are thirsty. We
long for peace, for love and happiness. We are built to desire these
things because they are good. But in this day and age, many, many people
are looking for peace, love and happiness in the wrong places. They
think these beautiful gifts will come to them by their own efforts,
without God. They often are attracted to New Age philosophies and
practices, thinking they will find these good things through them. The
New Age promises them they will.
Recently,
Denis and I had the opportunity to meet with and interview Moira
Noonan, O.S.B. Oblate, a writer and speaker who explains the deeper
meaning and influence of the New Age Movement to Christians, to clear up
the deceptions being offered to them. Moira shows very clearly how the
New age offers muddy, dirty water to those who thirst. It offers a
counterfeit road to peace and love. (see info below on Moira's books)
Our
Lady in this message is trying to direct us to the true source of peace
and love and happiness. She is offering us the "Spring of Clear Water"
which gushes forth from the Heart of her Son. She wants to give us the
clear water of Jesus. And so she tells us: "Drink out of my hands. My hands are offering to you my Son who is the spring of clear water."

Through
Confession our hearts are purified. Muddy water cannot purify anything.
But the Water that comes from Jesus can clean even the most impure
heart and make it fresh and new. With a pure heart, a heart that is
undivided and totally open to Jesus, we can love! "...my Son loves pure hearts and pure hearts love my Son..." The lines of communication and love are restored through Jesus' cleansing love, and the soul can again receive life from God.
I
was very amazed that Our Lady used the image of the "Spring of Clear
Water" in this message. It coincided with our interviews with Moira,
which we will share soon on Mary TV. And it also echoes so clearly the
document on the dangers of the New Age from the Pontifical Council for
Culture and the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue called "Jesus Christ the Bearer of the Water of Life, A Christian Reflection on the "New Age".
This document introduces the reader to the main themes of the New Age
movement, shows the philosophies and belief systems the underpin them,
and explains why a Christian cannot follow these philosophies and
practices.
Jesus
Christ is the Bearer of the Water of Life! He is the only source for
the "Water of Life"! He is the Spring of Clear Water! He alone can
bring us all the good that we seek.
(Here is the link to the document:
So,
how do we drink from Our Lady's hands? I think we open our hearts and
listen to her direction. She shows us the way to the Spring of Clear
Water, through prayer, the Sacraments, Holy Mass, the Bible and penance
and fasting. This is what she offers us from her school, and it brings
us to the Spring which is Jesus.
We want the Clear Water!!! Come to the Spring!!
"Whoever
drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst; the water
that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to
eternal life." (John 4:14)
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
