"I am the Mother of Sorrows, I suffer greatly because of the souls being lost. I am tortured in pain as I grieve for the suffering of my Divine Son. Never despise any tiredness, be my eternal companion helping me bear my sufferings. This is what I ask of you.” Full Spiritual Diary pg 107

From the Spiritual Diary of Elizabeth Kindelmann on March 6, 1964
Elizabeth:
"Prostrating myself before Him, my soul breathed words of profound humility that He aroused in me. “Blessed be God! Blessed be His Holy Name! Blessed be Jesus Christ, true God and true Man.”
He did not let me continue."
Jesus:
“Your homage pleases Me, My little one, but I will explain the words, ‘True God and true Man.’ If this were not true, how could you come closer to Me? I let Myself be known to you as true God and true Man. Not only you, but all those who eat My Body and drink My Blood. As true God, I penetrate your heart and as true Man, I speak to you because My human Heart beats at the same rhythm as My Divinity. Your heart beats to the same rhythm as My Heart. Do you know what this means? It means that you participate in My Divinity.
All who feel with Me and whose thoughts are My thoughts will receive this participation. Whoever lives this way can only bless. This blessing increases the effect of My work of Redemption. This effect makes you saints. You see, this blessing is an eternal circular movement between Heaven and earth. Your sacrifices unceasingly rise up to Me and I shower My abundant graces upon you and upon all who dedicate themselves for the glory of My Holy Name. Patient, persevering love never blunders.”

In the Divine Providence of Holy Mother Church, She places this Memorial on the heels of the Exaltation on The Holy Cross. Positioned as a foretaste of the Lenten Season, we are able to experience throughout this entire month, the Sword of Sorrow which even today pierces Our Mother's Heart, as She is still watching Her Children fall into damnation.
Mary:
“Just live in hidden humility and be consumed in suffering. I, the Mother of Sorrows, feel as if, with each of your sufferings, you pour medicinal balm upon the wounds of my Divine Son.
Be a soul which cannot live without sufferings. By their union with the sufferings of my Divine Son, these souls increasingly feel His closeness. Desire with all your heart that my
Flame of Love be lit quickly and blind Satan.”
Pg. 40 of the Full Diary
As Children of the Flame, let us never waste the grace to suffer well for souls. We have the promises of Our Lady, that we are able to be a part of reparation for sin, while consoling Our Lord, Jesus Christ. Your sacrifices matter in the Oneness of Their Beating Hearts. In fact, suffering in which we offer up, helps us to destroy and align our will with the Perfect Will. This brings life and the purifying Fire of grace to the whole world!
Tomorrow, on the memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows, pray and ask the Holy Spirit what YOU need to sacrifice or "offer up" in order to save souls. Then, give it to Our Lady who will help you, and distribute to all as a saving balm.
"Everything passes away, only your work for souls remains.”

Reparation Through Spreading The Flame of Love
|
|
During the onset of Covid-19 I almost lost my wife. Several years earlier I had watched helplessly as my mother suffered and died of a terminal illness. On both occasions, if I could have taken their place I would have. But God knows better than we do. And it is out of His love for us that God allows suffering to happen. Jesus suffered on the cross to make reparation for the sins of humanity, to heal the broken covenant between God and Man. The “Eucharistic sacrifice” of the Mass is a continuation of making reparation with our Heavenly Father, offering the sacrifice of Jesus along with our human offering in ‘thanksgiving’ (the meaning of the word ‘eucharist’), for the mercy of God – the fall of Adam from the grace of God being repaired by the suffering and death of Jesus Christ. However, unlike my willingness to suffer and die for the ones I loved, Jesus did this for all humanity, particularly for those who hated him – this is the generosity of God’s love. READ MORE
