Let's console Mary's heart!!!

Today is the 1st Saturday of December, and the Catholic Church has the beautiful tradition of dedicating the 1st Saturday of each month for the purpose of consoling Mary's sorrowful heart.  Why is Mary's Immaculate Heart sorrowful, some would ask, when she should be happy in heaven rejoicing with God and all the saints...  Well, the way I look at it, she is sorrowful because once you're a mother you are always a mother, and when a mother sees her children sad or sinning, it breaks her heart.  Mary is the mother of us all, and so many of her children are turning away from God and might be choosing hell through their sinful actions.  So no wonder she is sad.  That's what this latest Medjugorje message made me think of...a very sad mother who is trying to do everything she possibly can---even miraculously appearing every day with messages of motherly wisdom---to try to bring her children to heaven to be with her and Jesus forever.  So let's start listening to her, let's start praying, let's start seeking God's will rather than our own, let's start trying to help other souls turn back to God...let's start consoling our sweet mother's heart!!!


December 2, 2016 Message to Mirjana

 "Dear children, my motherly heart is crying as I am looking at what my children are doing. Sins are multiplying, the purity of soul is all the less important; my Son is being forgotten - honored all the less; and my children are being persecuted. That is why, you my children, apostles of my love, with soul and heart invoke the name of my Son. He will have the words of light for you. He manifests Himself to you, He breaks the bread with you and gives you the words of love so that you may transform them into merciful acts and, thus, be witnesses of truth. That is why, my children, do not be afraid. Permit my Son to be in you. He will make use of you to care for the wounded and to convert lost souls. Therefore, my children, return to the prayer of the Rosary. Pray it with feelings of goodness, sacrifice and mercy. Pray, not only with words, but with merciful acts. Pray with love for all people. My Son, by His sacrifice, exalted love. Therefore, live with Him so that you may have strength and hope; that you may have the love which is life and which leads to eternal life. Through God's love, I am also with you, and will lead you with motherly love. Thank you."

(Mirjana said that Our Lady was very sad.)
