Mary TV: October 31, 2018 Reflection - For you and the future generations!

 
Future generations!!!

Dear Family of Mary!

Our Lady doesn't tell us the future. She doesn't predict things. She speaks to us in practical terms about how we are to live now. But there have been a few glimpses of hope that she has given us.
 
On June 25, 2006 she told us:
"Dear children! With great joy in my heart I thank you for all the prayers that, in these days, you offered for my intentions. Know, little children, that you will not regret it, neither you nor your children. God will reward you with great graces and you will merit eternal life..." She spoke of our children who are the future, and the gift we can give them if we pray as Our Lady asks.  
 
And on December 2, 2011 she told us: "Dear children; As a mother I am with you so that with my love, prayer and example I may help you to become a seed of the future, a seed that will grow into a firm tree and spread its branches throughout the world." Such a tree surely is like the family tree, the descendants that will flourish because we became seeds of life, seeds of faith in Jesus and Mary.
 
On March 25, 2017 she said: "You are not alone; I am with you through the grace which the Most High gives me for you and your descendants..." Clearly God has our descendants in mind, and is sending Our Lady for them as well as for us. 
 
And finally on October 25, 2018 Our Lady let us glimpse our future with her. She said: "...This, little children, is a time of grace, a time and a call to conversion for you and the future generations..." (October 25, 2018) She made it very clear that what she is doing is not only for our immediate good but for the good of generations to come. She is part of a plan to save the world.
We have a future with God and with Our Lady! Mirjana Soldo shared in her book, "My Heart Will Triumph" a similar glimpse into the future. Here is what she said:
 
When people ask me gloomy questions about Biblical catastrophes and the end of the world, I feel sorry for them. Some seem to think that all the secrets are negative. Maybe they have a guilty conscience; maybe they are afraid of how they've lived their life and so they fear God's punishment. Perhaps when we do not have enough good inside, we expect bad things. But nothing can be changed by worrying about the secrets. Instead, people should only worry about how to change themselves.
 
People have asked me how I cope with the burden of the secrets, but I often think that the secrets burden others more than they do me. The people who are concerned about the secrets have not seen Our Lady and do not know about God's complete project - why Our Lady comes here at all, or what she's preparing us for. But if your life is in her hands, and God is in your heart, what can harm you?
 
If everyone knew me and could see how much I laugh and joke, no one would be afraid of the secrets. Those who truly know God's love should be full of joy. It does not make sense to talk about the future when any of us might die tomorrow. Our Lady constantly reminds us about that in her messages, like when she said, "My children, your life is only a blink in contrast to eternal life."
 
I cannot divulge much more about the secrets, but I can say this-Our Lady is planning to change the world. She did not come to announce our destruction; she came to save us, and with her Son, she will triumph over evil.
 
If our Mother has promised to defeat evil, then what do we have to fear?
(Mirjana Soldo. "My Heart Will Triumph." p. 142)

So in this time and in this call to conversion, we have the possibility to help build a very bright future for ourselves and our children and their children. But we must convert and live the messages, in order to become the seeds of that future. Everything depends on this time, now. Will we be seeds for the future?
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
