Mary TV: April 20, 2021 Reflection- "Yearn for Eternity"

 




"Yearn for Eternity..."

April 20, 2021

Dear Family of Mary!

I have been pondering eternity a lot these days. Our earthly lives are not eternal. They are temporal. They have a beginning and an end. The dictionary says: Temporal comes from the Latin word temporalis which means "of time". The earth began billions of years ago, and will probably end billions of years from now. But it has a beginning and an end. Beginnings and endings surround. We cannot escape them. We do not know what eternity feels like. But we can imagine it.

God is eternal. No beginning and no end. He is the author of our beginnings. But He is not subject to time. Yet He loves us and wants to introduce us into His endless life. He wants to embrace us and give us a life without end with Him in joy. Do we realize what a gift this is? Do we ponder it?

Our Lady has spoken to us about eternity in her messages. She wants us to believe in our eternal life with God, to desire it, and to work towards it as best we can. She is with us to lead us to eternity, with God.

I have gathered some of her words about our eternal destiny, so that we can ponder them. We need to be open to God's gift of life with Him and that takes faith! Faith in His forever love for us. Our Lady understands our blindness to eternity, and wants to help us to see the truth of it. Let's pray this litany of eternity and let her words bring us light:

Our Lady speaks about eternity:

I desire that each one of you discover the way of holiness and grow in it until eternity. I will pray for you and intercede for you before God that you understand the greatness of this gift which God is giving me that I can be with you. (04/25/90)

Little children, I am your Mother and I desire to reveal to you the God of love and the God of peace. I do not desire for your life to be in sadness but that it be realized in joy for eternity, according to the Gospel. Only in this way will your life have meaning.(12/25/96)

"Dear children! Do not forget that you are here on earth on the way to eternity and that your home is in Heaven. (07/25/2000)

Little children, at this time, in a special way, I pray before God to give you the gift of faith. Only in faith will you discover the joy of the gift of life that God has given you. Your heart will be joyful thinking of eternity. (11/25/05)

Little children, when you pray you are close to God and He gives you the desire for eternity. (11/25/06)

I desire, little children, for each of you to fall in love with eternal life which is your future, and for all worldly things to be a help for you to draw you closer to God the Creator. (01/25/09)

Little children, draw even closer to my Immaculate Heart so that I can lead all of you toward eternity. (06/25/11)

When in nature you look at the richness of the colors which the Most High gives to you, open your heart and pray with gratitude for all the good that you have and say: 'I am here created for eternity' - and yearn for heavenly things because God loves you with immeasurable love. (09/25/12)

Little children, be aware that your life is short and passing. Therefore, yearn for eternity and keep preparing your hearts in prayer. (10/25/14)

I bless you with my Son Jesus and call you not to lose hope; and for your gaze and heart to always be directed towards Heaven and eternity. In this way, you will be open to God and to His plans. (12/25/16)

Open your hearts to the gifts which He desires to give you and, in the silence of your heart, adore my Son Jesus who has given His life so that you may live in eternity - where He desires to lead you. (05/25/18)

I desire for all of you to be with me in eternity, because you are a part of me. I will help you on your way. My love will envelop you like a mantle and make of you apostles of my light - of God's light. (07/2/14)

My children, ceaselessly think of my Son and love Him immeasurably and you will have true life, and that will be for eternity. (07/02/18)

The life of each of you is important and precious, because it is a gift from the Heavenly Father for eternity. Therefore, do not ever forget to keep on thanking Him: speak to Him. (08/2/18)

My children, the earthly life is the way to eternity, to truth, and to life - to my Son. I desire to lead you on that way. (10/2/19)

I am asking that you love, that you convey the truth; because truth is old, it is not new, it is eternal, it is truth. It testifies to God's eternity. Bring the light of my Son and keep breaking the darkness which all the more wants to seize you. Do not be afraid. Through the grace and the love of my Son, I am with you. (06/2/2020)

Amen and Amen! Do not be afraid for she is with us!!

In Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!

P.S. Thank you to all who have donated towards our "Fiber Optic Internet Project" that we announced on last Wednesday! We are in awe at how quickly and generously you shipmates have responded!! As we said on Wednesday during the Rosary, we need to provide a Fiber Optic internet connection to our main channel server in Texas. It will cost about $45,000!!! But we have faith that Our Lady wants this connection, so that Mary TV will have a strong link to the world for the days ahead. You can donate on our website using the "Donate" link at the top right hand side of the page. Thank you so much!!!!
