Ask the Lord for the Gift of faith!
January 22, 2024
Dear Family of Mary!
It has been put on my heart that what I should be praying for these days is the Gift of Faith to fall on as many people as possible. The Gift of Faith! It is fundamental to our conversion. It really is conversion, that moment when the Truth smacks us in the face, and we realize there is a God, and that He has been revealed to us by Jesus Christ! Faith is such a precious gift, such a pearl of great price!
Our Lady has been calling to us to pray for the Gift of Faith, throughout her time with us in Medjugorje. Here is one such message from December 25, 2017 through Jakov:
"Dear children,
Today, on this day of grace,
I am calling you to ask the Lord
for the gift of faith.
My children,
decide for God
and begin to live and to believe
in what God is calling you to.
To believe, my children, means
to surrender your lives into God's hands -
the hands of the Lord who created you
and who loves you immeasurably.
Do not be believers only in words
but live and witness your faith
through works and through your personal example.
Speak with God as with your Father.
Open and surrender your hearts to Him
and you will see how your hearts are changing
and how you will marvel at God's works in your life.
My children,
there is no life without God
and that is why, as your mother,
I intercede before,
and pray to,
my Son to renew your hearts
and to fill your life with immeasurable love.
Thank you for having responded to my call."
(December 25, 2017- Jakov)
May we be awakened to the gift of Faith! May we begin to believe in God's call to our lives! May we surrender our lives into God's hands because we believe! May our faith, our belief manifest itself in works of love! And may our faith open our hearts to a deep personal relationship with the Father, who longs to bless us and lead us to life!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
