Return to prayer!
October 27, 2021
Dear Family of Mary!
Here again is the message from Our Lady, Queen of Peace for October 25, 2021:
“Dear
children! Return to prayer because [he] who prays is not afraid of the
future; [he] who prays is open to life and respects the life of others;
[he] who prays, little children, feels the freedom of the children of
God and in joy of heart serves for the good for his brother-man. Because
God is love and freedom, therefore, little children, when they want to
put you in bonds and to use you, it is not from God. Because God loves
and gives His peace to every creature; and that is why He sent me to you
to help you to grow in holiness. Thank you for having responded to my
call.” (October 25, 2021)
Our
Lady began this message with strong advice: Return to prayer! She
knows that we wander away from prayer many times during the day. We may
start off well, praying morning prayer or the Rosary to begin the day.
But as we begin our work or study, prayer often gets shoved into the
background.
That
can be dangerous, because when we are thinking and acting, if we are
not steeped in prayer, we may take in the ideas and dispositions of the
world around us, some of which are very dangerous for our spiritual
life. Ideas like being afraid of the future, or despairing at the state
of our countries or our families, and not having hope for the good.
God is our future and He is our hope for the good. We won't survive
this worldwide attack on the good if we are not steeped in prayer.
So,
how to return to prayer? For me it means to carry my Rosary
constantly, to have a conversation with Jesus as much as possible, to
keep holy pictures and Crucifixes near me wherever I am. I find it
helps me to have Mary TV playing on my TV all day long. It helps me to
return to prayer.
We
are in the midst of a Jericho novena in which we are trying to "Be
Prayer" all day long, supporting Our Lady and St. John Paul II as they
circle the city of man, the Jericho of our day, preparing to bring it
down. They need us to return to prayer throughout the day, supporting
them with our prayers. Thank you to all who have joined this effort. I
believe there is going to be a turning of the tide of evil. Let's keep
up our prayer!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
