May hope begin to flow through your hearts
December 16, 2024
Dear Family of Mary!
The word I am hearing this week is "hope"!! Sunday
was the 3rd Sunday of Advent, and it was all about hope. But I think
this week is filled with more and more hope!
Here is another November 25 Message, and it is all about hope:
November 25, 2008
"Dear children!
Also today I call you, in this time of grace,
to pray for little Jesus to be born in your heart.
May He, who is peace itself,
give peace to the entire world through you.
Therefore, little children,
pray without ceasing
for this turbulent world without hope,
so that you may become witnesses of peace for all.
May hope begin to flow through your hearts
as a river of grace.
Thank you for having responded to my call."
Our Lady wants hope
to flow through our hearts as a river of grace!! This is a wonderful
thing!! May it be so!!! May Little Jesus be born in our hearts so that
He will give us His Peace and we will have Hope!!
St. Paul, in his letter to the Ephesians put it this way:
"For this reason,
because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love
toward all the saints, I do not cease to give thanks for you,
remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation
in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened,
that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are
the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the
immeasurable greatness of his power in us who believe, according to the
working of his great might which he accomplished in Christ when he
raised him from the dead and made him sit at his right hand in the
heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and
dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but
also in that which is to come; and he has put all things under his feet
and has made him the head over all things for the church, which is his
body, the fulness of him who fills all in all." (Ephesians 1:15-23, RSV-CE)
Wow!! That is a mouthful!! Did you notice that is one sentence?? St. Paul, you rock!!
But what he says is absolutely incredible. May we
read St. Paul's words over a few times until the full breadth of his
desire for us is understood! He wants hope to flow through our hearts
like a river of grace!!
God bless you,
