Peacelessness and perdition...
April 30, 2025
St. Pius V
Dear Family of Mary!
Our Lady has been repeatedly impressing upon us that
it is possible to have hearts that are so stony and cold that they
cannot see what God is doing, and that they can only choose the paths of
peacelessness and perdition. Read again her message to us on April 25,
2025:
April
25, 2025 "Dear children, winds of peacelessness, selfishness and sin
are catching hold of many hearts and leading them into peacelessness and
perdition. That is why I am calling you, little children: return to God
and to prayer, so that it may be good for you in the hearts and on the
earth on which you live. I love you, little children, and that is why I
am not tiring of calling you to conversion. Thank you for having
responded to my call." (With Ecclesiastical approval)
Now read the first reading for Mass today:
Acts 5:17-26
The
high priest rose up and all his companions, that is, the party of the
Sadducees, and, filled with jealousy, laid hands upon the Apostles and
put them in the public jail. But during the night, the angel of the Lord
opened the doors of the prison, led them out, and said, “Go and take
your place in the temple area, and tell the people everything about this
life.” When they heard this, they went to the temple early in the
morning and taught. When the high priest and his companions arrived,
they convened the Sanhedrin, the full senate of the children of Israel,
and sent to the jail to have them brought in. But the court officers who
went did not find them in the prison, so they came back and reported,
“We found the jail securely locked and the guards stationed outside the
doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside.” When the
captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard this report,
they were at a loss about them, as to what this would come to. Then
someone came in and reported to them, “The men whom you put in prison
are in the temple area and are teaching the people.” Then the captain
and the court officers went and brought them, but without force, because
they were afraid of being stoned by the people.
The word of the Lord.
The Sadducees were clearly unable to see the mighty
work of God in freeing the Apostles from their jail, even though the
doors remained locked and the guards stationed outside the doors!!!
This miracle made no impression on them!! Were they blind and unable to
hear? Yes, they were. They were on their way to perdition, because of
years of peacelessness, selfishness and sin. They could not perceive
the works of God. It was beyond their comprehension.
We see the same condition in many hearts today.
They have lost true values, and wandered far from the light of God. But
Our Lady does not want to give up on them. She told us many years ago:
January
23, 1986 "Dear children! Again I call you to prayer with the heart. If
you pray with the heart, dear children, the ice of your brothers will
melt and every barrier shall disappear. Conversion will be easy for all
who desire to accept it. That is the gift which by prayer you must
obtain for your neighbor. Thank you for having responded to my call."
We are called to pray, pray, pray for our neighbors,
so that they can be freed from the blindness of unbelief. It is not
too late. Our job is to pray, pray, pray, for their conversion and for
our own as well!! Conversion is a mighty gift from God! It is a gift
we must obtain for ourselves and for our neighbors!! It is vital!!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
