Dear Family of Mary!
"...And I, as a mother, need your open hearts to spread the love of my Son with wisdom and simplicity. I need you to be open and sensitive to the good and mercy. I need you to be united with my Son, because I desire for you to be happy and to help me to bring happiness to all of my children. My apostles, I need you to show everyone the truth of God, so that my heart, which suffered and today suffers so much pain, can win in love..." (May 2, 2015)
Notice how many times Our Lady repeats "I need you" in this paragraph. Every sentence begins with some form of it. "I,
as a mother, need your open hearts..." I need you to be open..." I need
you to be united..." I need you to show everyone..."
This
is the plea of a mother who has a huge task before her, and needs her
children to pitch in and help! Our Lady has been given the task of
crushing the head of Satan in these last days, and of drawing all of
God's children into God's Kingdom. Through God's grace, Our Lady is
going to triumph in this sinful world. Her heart is going to win over
all of the opponents of God, and she is going to reign as the Queen of
Heaven and Earth. But not without a fight!
In
these later days, Our Lady is organizing an army of children, her
beloved children. This army is armed with the arsenal of God's graces
and virtues. Faith, Hope, and Love (the theological virtues) are first
on the list of our weapons. Then prudence, justice, fortitude, and
temperance (the cardinal virtues). Then wisdom, understanding, counsel,
fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord (the gifts of the Holy
Spirit). Plus humility, poverty, chastity, and obedience...and on and
on. These are the powerful gifts that Our Lady lavishes upon us through
her intercession, so that we can be lights of her Son.
Our
part in this battle is to be open to these gifts and virtues. We need
to have open hearts, hearts that are ready to receive grace, and then
give it away to others. We need to be open and sensitive to the good and
mercy, recognizing it wherever it is, and supporting and advancing it.
We need to be united to Jesus in such a way that we are like branches on
the vine, nourished and enlivened by His Body and Blood, and filled
with His joy, so we can share it with others. And we need to live the
truth of God, always pointing to the reality that God exists!! In this
way Our Lady's lost ones will find their way home.
Our Lady needs us. She really needs us. May we say "yes" to her call.
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
