Do not be anxious nor worried!
October 8, 2024
Dear Family of Mary!
Our Gospel today speaks to us about our priorities. What is it that should occupy us the most? Is it our job? Is it politics? Is it the future? Jesus speaks to this question in the Gospel. Maybe we should read this Gospel every day!!
Luke 10: 38 - 42:
Jesus entered a village where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him. She had a sister named Mary who sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak. Martha, burdened with much serving, came to him and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me by myself to do the serving? Tell her to help me." The Lord said to her in reply, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her." (Luke 10: 41-42)
Our Lady, in her own words, echoes Jesus' advice to Martha! Maybe we should read this message every day too:

"Dear children!
I am inviting you to a complete surrender to God. Pray, little children,
that satan may not carry you about like the branches in the wind.
Be strong in God.
I desire that through you the whole world may get to know the God of joy. By your life bear witness for God's joy.
Do not be anxious nor worried. God himself will help you and show you the way.
I desire that you love all men with my love. Only in that way can love reign over the world.
Little children, you are mine. I love you and want you to surrender to me
so that I can lead you to God.
Never cease praying so that satan cannot take advantage of you. Pray for the knowledge that you are mine. I bless you with blessings of joy.
Thank you for having responded to my call."
Amen! We long to completely surrender to God! Show us the way, Mother Mary! Help us to choose the better part, Jesus Christ, your Son!
In Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!
