Dear Family of Mary!

"Dear children, this is a time of gratitude.  Today I ask love from you. Don't look for faults in others and don't judge others.  I expect you to love and to spread the truth because the truth is eternal, constant and always up to date.  Bring the light of my Son.  Drive out the darkness that wants to seize you more and take you far away from my Son, Jesus. Don't worry, I am with you.  Thank you for responding to my call. (May 4, 2020)

"Don't worry, I am with you..."
There is so much to worry about right now in our world. We all sense it. Fear is growing like an atomic mushroom cloud, growing so fast it might engulf us all. But Our Lady tells us not to worry. Set all fear aside as a temptation. Instead focus on one thing, that she is with us. She is with each one of us. Don't worry.

I discovered that in her messages from Medjugorje, Our Lady has told us at least 215 times that she is with us. "I am with you..." she says over and over in her messages. And she always couples the words "I am with you" with a beautiful aspect of her presence! As I read these words in each message, I realized that those sentences would make a very good litany for us to pray. So, I have compiled just a few of the times Our Lady told us she is with us, so we could pray them. Here is my first little litany.

Litany to Our Lady of Medjugorje: I am with you!
(the response is: Mother, I believe that you are with me)
I am with you and I want you to believe me, that I love you. (11/25/87)
I am with you and I am rejoicing because of your conversion and I am protecting you with my motherly mantle. (04/25/88)
I am with you even if you think there is no way out and that satan is in control. I am bringing peace to you I am your mother, the Queen of Peace. (07/25/88)
I am with you and I intercede for you in front of God, (11/25/88)
I am with you and unceasingly keep watch over every heart which is given to me. (02/25/89)
I am with you and I want to introduce you continuously to the joy of life. (05/25/89)
I am with you and I wish to teach you to pray with the heart. (10/25/89)
I am with you even if you are not conscious of it. I want to protect you from everything that satan offers you and through which he wants to destroy you. (03/25/90)
I am with you and I desire, dear children, that each one of you be ever closer to my heart. (04/25/90)
I am with you and I desire to help you to grow in renunciation and mortification, that you may be able to understand the beauty of the life of people who go on giving themselves to me in special way. (05/25/90)

I am with you and I desire to lead you along the same path to heaven, which is beautiful for those who discover it in prayer.   (08/25/90)
I am with you and day after day I offer your sacrifices and prayers to God for the salvation of the world. (11/25/90)
I am with you and I accompany you with my blessing and my prayers. (03/25/91)
I am with you and I am grateful to God for every moment spent with you. (04/25/91)
I am with you and I desire to help each of you to live and by living, to witness the good news. I am here, dear children, to help you and to lead you to heaven. (05/25/91)
I am with you and I love you with the immeasurable love of Jesus. (11/25/91)
I am with you and your suffering is also mine. (04/25/92)
I am with you and each day I bless you with my maternal blessing so that Our Lord may fill you abundantly with His grace for your daily life. (07/25/92)

Dearest Mother, we believe that you are with us, and we thank you that you have come.  We long to live our lives under your mantle, in the safety of your Immaculate Heart.  We want to listen to your messages and live them with love, so that many souls will be saved.  Thank you, dearest Mother, for being with us!

We can conclude with this marvelous prayer, Totus Tuus, to Our Lady. We can give ourselves to Mary, who is with us:

Totus Tuus (Totally Yours)
Immaculate Conception,
Mary my Mother,
Live in me,
Act in me,
Speak in me and through me,
Think your thoughts in my mind,
Love through my heart,
Give me your dispositions and feelings,
Teach, lead me and guide me to Jesus,
Correct, enlighten and expand my thoughts and behavior,
Possess my soul,
Take over my entire personality and life, replace it with Yourself,
Incline me to constant adoration,
Pray in me and through me,
Let me live in you and keep me in this union always.

Let's not give in to fear and worry, but turn to Our Mother who is with us - with complete trust - so that she can lead us to Jesus!

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

PS. Don't forget to pray this short but powerful prayer to the Holy Spirit:

Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Thy faithful
and enkindle in them the fire of Thy love.
V. Send forth Thy Spirit and we shall be created.
R. And Thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray. O God, Who by the light of the Holy Spirit didst instruct the hearts of thy faithful, grant by the same Spirit that we will be truly wise, and ever to rejoice in His consolation. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
