Locutions to The World 13
(June 8, 2012 to July 11, 2012)
361. The Stumbling Blocks
June 8, 2012
Mary
The way that I lead people is not difficult. I remove all the rocks and stones, making sure that they do not stumble. My path is not dark or obscure. People can easily see their way. All that they need is a firm will to walk in truth and goodness. These, I cannot compromise. I cannot contravene the will of God.
God has a plan for every person, to bring that person to a holiness of life so they are capable of living in his presence forever. God has revealed his laws so man knows what goodness of life is.
These laws are man’s stumbling blocks. His selfish nature rebels against them. This rebellion leads him to reject God himself and to walk on his own road. But all of this is foolishness and leads to man’s destruction, in this life and in the next.
Clearing Away the Stumbling Blocks
So, I make this promise to clear away the obstacles and to make the road smooth. I cannot change the road’s direction. It must lead to God by truth and goodness. I will, however, make the road easier to walk. Virtue will not be difficult to practice and vice will exert no power. This is my secret and why I invite the whole world to come into my heart.
O reader, you do not need to reject God. I can overcome your selfish nature that so quickly rebels and holds you back from coming into his presence.
Comment: Most people want to be with God. They are turned back by moral demands which can easily be kept with Mary’s help.
362. A Woman in Travail
June 9, 2012
Mary
How many miles the human race must still walk before time ends and all history is completed. My Son, Jesus, will determine that moment because the Father has given him all authority. Jesus must wait until all the places in heaven are filled according to the Father’s plan.
In the meantime, I am a Woman who is in labor, bringing forth my children into the eternal day of life everlasting. My birth pangs are not over. I am still in travail until all is accomplished. Even if this is for centuries and centuries, I will be here, bringing all my children to new life.
Now, the hour is dark and many do not possess eternal life. For them, my sufferings are in vain. They will be stillborn and I will suffer the greatest sorrow of a mother, to dream about new life and then to see it slip from my fingers.
This is my sorrow. How many tears I shed. Earthly mothers gave them earthly life. But, I am a heavenly mother and I cannot force heavenly life upon them. I speak. I explain. I urge. But, the person must embrace me.
This is the great difference between earthly and heavenly life. No one chooses to come to earth, but everyone must choose to come to heaven. The decision is made only by you.
O reader, heavenly life is yours, paid for by the death of my Son on the cross. To receive this life, you must choose Jesus Christ as your Lord. You must come to know him and to love him. You must receive his Holy Spirit and live according to his word. Then, you will possess new life, heavenly life.
You will be a new person, a new creation. You will cast aside the things of darkness and live, even on earth, in great light. You will experience Jesus’ presence in your heart and live in a new world called “the kingdom”.
I suffer for you. I am in travail for you. However, all is worth it if only you are born again to eternal life.
Comment: Mary weeps, not from the pain of childbirth but because so many are stillborn. She will do everything to bring us heavenly life.
363. The Divine Illumination
June 10, 2012
Mary
I do not want the Church to spend its energy going around in circles or constantly getting off the path of true devotion. Coming to God, arriving in his presence and living in his face is meant to be clear and straightforward, available to all and easy to understand and accomplish.
I, the Woman Clothed With the Sun, am God’s divine secret. My light is powerful and can be seen even in the greatest darkness. I do not want any soul to be lost. For this purpose, I shine this great light of my teachings.
The soul must be right with God, honest and upright in the depth of its being. Catholic practice must not be on the surface. My light must pierce to the heart and people must accept the full light, even if it reveals their sins and failures.
A Piercing Light
Often, when I speak of light, people think of it as a guiding light. That is too superficial. My light is a piercing light, going right to the heart, exposing all the darkness that claims every human heart. This is the problem of mankind. People walk in great, inner darkness and they do not seek the only light that can free them.
In heaven, everyone is filled with light. All are purified. They see the great beauty of their souls. However, this glorious state only comes about by an infusion of divine light. This is my revelation. I am ready to pour out that divine light upon the whole world. I have already begun, in isolated cases. I will multiply this gift, especially among those who call on me and are somewhat acquainted with this experience.
By this inner light, I will bring about great saints in great numbers. I must do this now. This is my plan to overcome the future darkness.
Comment: Mary is speaking of a special divine illumination. Some have already experienced this. She promises to make it more widespread.
364. Mary’s Road
June 14, 2012
Mary
Do not turn back from the road of trust and full confidence in me. No other path to life exists and great are the forces that would lead you off this road.
First, there is the forbidden fruit of the world. To pick this, you must leave my road because nothing forbidden can be found on it.
Second, there are your personal sins. When you walk this road your sins become evident to you. This clarity is given to you so you can seek forgiveness. Then, you will rejoice in the goodness of this road.
Third, there are the fears concerning the future. What will this road demand of you? Really, it is the easiest road, devoid of problems caused by your selfishness. And, I am there to help you.
No Compromise
I cannot compromise this road. It is the narrow road that Jesus spoke about and invited his disciples to walk. I cannot change his road to accommodate your sins but I can remove your sins so you can walk this road.
This is where people turn back because they want their sins. They cling to their sins even though they cause so many problems.
To Sinners
I do not speak now to the saints and to the devout. I speak to those who are mired in sin, to those who do not see themselves as devout or practicing their religion. I speak to all who have abandoned the faith of your childhood. I even speak to those deeply mired in the most serious of sins. Yes, I speak to all of you.
You can walk my road. I want you on my road. Mine will be the joy of a mother who sees her child return home.
You might not yet feel at home in a Church but you can feel at home in my heart. I want you there. That is where we will begin!
Comment: Mary speaks to a definite group of people, those who know they have wandered off. She wants them back and will do everything to get them back to herself.
365. Receiving Jesus’ Heart
June 15, 2012
Mary
Before true change comes about, man must put aside many concerns. Too many useless goals preoccupy his mind and capture his heart. As a result, he has no time and interest in the only goal that really matters, the salvation of his immortal soul.
Forgetting the Purpose
He pushes this goal further and further away. What should be first, he makes last and eventually, finds no interest at all in eternal life. Man has forgotten the very purpose of his creation. He is called to live forever with God, but he forgets God. He can live forever in heaven, but he gives his heart totally to the goods of earth.
How easily the human heart is trapped, pursuing goals of little worth – some pleasure here or some entertainment there. Soon, this becomes life’s purpose. The human heart filled with passing goals is an empty heart. It has nothing to show for all its great efforts. It has been diverted and detoured, far, far away from its true love. What can be done for the human heart?
The Great Gift
O reader, to gain your heart for himself, my Son, Jesus, allowed his heart to be pierced. This was his final gift to man. Now, I reveal a great secret.
Knowing the frailty of the human heart, Jesus offered his own heart. You can have Jesus’ heart. He wants to place his heart in every human person. This is eternal life. This is the Father’s plan. This is why I was asked to be the Mother of God. Jesus wanted a human heart, so he could love the Father with that heart and, then, give you that heart so you could love the Father.
Just ask Jesus. Say, “Jesus, through Mary, give me your heart”. Slowly, his heart will fill your heart and his desires will replace your desires. This is eternal life.
Comment: Mary explains the problem. The human heart gets filled with useless goals. She describes the unbelievable gift. Jesus will give us his heart.
366. The Middle East Chaos
June 16, 2012
Mary
I repeat my words because many do not grasp the gravity of the situation. The Middle East is in chaos and this chaos will spill out. At this point, it seems like the problems are only in Syria. However, other countries can easily be drawn into this conflict which will spread rapidly because of the tribal and religious divisions among the people.
No Stability
Nothing is stable. No country has a firewall of protection. Every country will be affected. Safeguards against the terrorist groups will be greatly weakened. They will grow bolder and act more aggressively. What will happen when governments topple and atomic weapons fall into the hands of terrorist groups? I have already spoken of this before.
No Repentance
Still, the world goes on, as if nothing will change. There has been no turning to God and repentance, no beating of the breasts or seeking pardon.
Repentance was common in the Ages of Faith and God was pleased. Even though man had strayed, his repentance always found an open door in God’s heart. That door remains open but no one says, “Let us return. Let us enter God’s heart”. The world and world leaders go their merry way, seeking only to be re-elected and serve another term. The grave crisis is at their door and they do not even see it.
The Next Few Months
Well, I see it and I alert everyone. In the next few months, the world will shake. Events will spill out, one after another. Each event will carry its bad news. The world will hear the bad news. Will the world repent and turn to God?
This is why I speak and, even repeat my words. So listen clearly: “These events do not come from God. The come from Satan who controls the hearts of many. He uses them to spread his violence and death. I am the Woman Clothed With the Sun. I am Satan’s enemy and I know how to thwart his plans and to save my people. These months are urgent. It is not the time for eating and drinking, buying and selling. It is the time to set aside earthly distractions and to come before God. I will lead you and go with you. Return to mass, even every day. Pick up your Rosary. Return to family prayer. These are the appropriate actions in this crisis.”
Comment: Our Lady is very clear. The Middle East will spill over. Every believer must change and come before God.
367. When Hope Is Shattered
June 17, 2012
Mary
In difficult times, many turn back. They abandon their hopes and allow their dreams to be destroyed. This rips apart the fragments of their lives, leaving all in shreds. They have lost the dream that brought together all their forces for the single goal.
This also destroys relationships. People gather because they share a goal. When hope is lost, all fragments. The person has no inner oneness and society possesses no hope that brings its people together. Once hope is shattered, who can piece it together, who can restore its power? Shattered hope is like a mirror broken into many pieces. Who can restore its beauty?
Hope is my gift. I hold this in my heart for anyone who wishes to take it. I pour hope upon all who come to me. Hope is my secret. My children can go through many sufferings and disappointments without losing hope. Even if their hope gets shattered (usually when they forget me and walk away), I can restore hope if they return.
When people have many material goods they set hope aside and place their security in their possessions. But what happens when their possessions are taken away? They have forgotten how to hope. They never needed God’s help. They never needed to hope. They are isolated because material goods took the place of people. When people have little, they stay together in hope. When they have much, they separate in independence and self-security. Then, they are not ready for hard times.
I am trying to prepare you for the hard times that you will face. Set your material goods aside and pick up once more your religious hope. Be drawn into the gift that I offer you by these messages. It is an inner gift, the spiritual stirrings in your soul. Do not be surprised by your new desires for a life with God. I am placing them there because you read my messages.
Read them often. Read them slowly. Many sentences will touch your heart. I provide everything and I ask from you only the effort which you can easily give.
Comment: A person and a group (such as a family) can survive anything with hope. Without hope, everything comes apart.
368. Pitfalls and Darkness
June 18, 2012
Mary
How many and how great are the pitfalls that can entrap anyone, holding them captive even for a lifetime. Yet, man wants to walk around blindfolded, not desiring the divine light which could easily fill his soul and help him to avoid these pitfalls. O reader, do you want God’s light? Just ask me. I am the Woman Clothed With the Sun and I share God’s light with everyone who seeks it.
The Commandments
However, man deliberately closes his eyes. He has no interest in God’s light. He sets aside the bible and the clear teachings of the Church. He allows his heart to be filled with the world’s darkness. He falls into some pit. This is inevitable. In modern life, pitfalls dot the landscape and the person must navigate them, watching closely not to be entrapped. This protecting light comes from God’s commandments.
Even if a person does not see what lies ahead, if they always obey God’s commands, they will not even approach these pitfalls. Their obedience safeguards them from numerous trials. Compare this with the person who compromises, who knows God’s law but is not firmly committed to keeping the law. Yes, this is what is needed, a firm commitment. So, I say, “Never compromise. Do not even take the first step down the road of darkness. You endanger everything – your eternal place in heaven and your years here on earth. So many have fallen in an unsuspecting moment.”
Sources of Light
Here is my plan. First, search out the sources of light. Read God’s word. Find people who love God and be with them. In this way, you will live in a culture of light and will quickly spot the darkness. Second, you must be aware of the sources of darkness in your life and get them out of your life. Get rid of them as completely as possible. Do not count the cost. No sacrifice is too high a price.
O child of God, in the world you will only find pitfalls and darkness. To find light, you must turn to me. That is why I speak.
Comment: Mary’s warning describes modern life. She wants so much to pull us away from the pitfalls.
369. A Point of No Return
June 19, 2012
Mary
No one knows what lies in the future. These secrets are held in the Father’s heart. He sees these future events but he does not determine them. He allows human history to flow from human hearts and human decisions. This is the way it has been since the beginning, even though the original choices of man were sinful and led the human race away from God. At times, God was tempted to wipe man off the face of the earth and to begin again, but, time and again, he has accepted my pleas for divine mercy.
Now, we arrive again at that stage when sinfulness has brought the human race to a turning point. Will it be a point of no return, from which the human race will never free itself, or, will it be a last minute victory, a surprising victory over the forces of evil. What will this year hold? This is a vital question. The decisions made this year will affect mankind for decades.
Watershed Moments
There are watershed moments, when contending forces reach their peak. One wins and the other loses. One dominates and the other loses all his power. One claims victory and the other must surrender in defeat. Sometimes, the difference between victory and defeat is very small and, with a little more effort, the victory could have been won. These are all the variables in what is taking place and going to take place.
What will happen? The question is still to be answered, but day by day, the options to victory narrow. The human race is losing time and is running out of opportunities. These must be a massive reversal, a world-wide return to God. This is beyond the power of man. A worldwide return is totally a gift from heaven, a new moment and a new opportunity. I promise to give the human race this moment when the light of God fills every heart and each person has the chance to again choose the light. Do not just wait for that moment. Prepare for it. Set aside the things of darkness in your life. Right now I call you into new light.
Comment: Mary speaks of a moment of divine illumination. But do not wait. Mary will give divine light to all who seek it.
370. Sharing in Mary’s Task
June 20, 2012
Mary
When an opportunity opens up, you must be prepared and ready to take it. This was the secret of the saints. They were always ready and eager to do God’s will. They did not lay back. They were in the forefront, always seeking to do more. I gained every possible grace for them, and they accepted every grace, even when it demanded great sacrifice.
The Call to Sacrifice
Come, let me reveal to you the road that very few travel, the road of sacrifices. This is a special road which blesses every life. It is a hidden road, known by few and loved by even fewer.
I walked this road of sacrifices because God called me to be the Woman Clothed With the Sun. There are others whom I call to share in this task of casting light on the world. This will be my great gift. I will light up the whole world, not just with special signs (these, too, will be included) but with an inner light. Each person will receive this light within their own soul. Everything will be revealed to them, their sins, their choices, their graces, their special moments in the past. Who will help me cast this light? I need souls who will sacrifice themselves for my plans.
Time of Special Graces
This is the time of the greatest graces that God has ever offered the world through His Son, Jesus. The greatest graces are given more abundantly than in any era of the Church.
I want to open your eyes. What was reserved for the few is now available to the many. Graces that were hardly known or mentioned are now commonplace. I cannot say this too clearly. This time is very special but I need special souls who are willing to sacrifice for my cause so I can fill the whole world with light and many will respond.
There are many types of souls. Some receive grace but also win grace, even the grace of eternal salvation for others. This is the great task – to save souls. How many helpers I need! Will you, reader, be one? Offer yourself. Pray, “Mary, I want to help you to save souls”. That is enough. Say it often. Renew your offering. I will teach you what to do next.
Comment: We are in a time of very special graces. Mary is trying to save souls and she needs helpers.
371. Who Can Divert the Flood?
June 21, 2012
Mary
The human race moves ahead, always confident that it can solve its problems and resolve its crises. Structures of governments and agencies are put in place to assure that human life flows harmoniously. Structures are everywhere, not just national governments but United Nations and regional groupings of countries.
Releasing the Floods
But, when the floods come, what structures will be adequate and, in some cases, what structures will remain standing. All will be changed and a crisis of despair will pour across the nations.
I have said this clearly. The floods have not yet been released. The waters are still contained within their boundaries. But will this remain? Who is shoring up the walls? Who is sacrificing for the common good? What leader is on the scene, or even on the horizon, who can divert this flood?
The First World
I speak in very clear images. What do they mean? There is a flow of human events and areas of the world where life seems secure. The people live without daily turmoil or in fear of their lives. They plan their futures and believe that their future will be stable. They do not foresee any shaking of their economic and political structures, nor do they see any enemy on their borders menacing their safety. This describes a significant part of the world, usually called “The First World”. Upon this solid structure is based the Second World, which seeks to gain the same political and economic security so its people, too, can have a safe and foreseeable future.
This is what I am talking about. When the floods come, whole nations that seemed secure will find that they have built their houses on sand and these houses will not stand. Whole nations will plunge into chaos.
The poor people. They will be hopelessly trapped in conditions that they did not create. This is why I speak. Reforms are needed but they are not enough and they are constantly put off. What is needed is reform of the human heart, especially the hearts of world leaders. My people, you must choose the right leaders. They must be reformed in their heart and dedicated to the truth. Anything else is too superficial.
Comment: Mary again speaks of future dangers that no one is preparing for. People must choose leaders whose hearts have been changed by God.
372. A Call to Arms
June 22, 2012
Mary
Let no one say that I have not warned the world. I have spoken time and again, at Fatima, Kibeho, Medjugorje, Akita and so many other places. I have spoken to so many and in so many ways. To the children at Fatima by visions and to Fr. Gobbi by locutions. A whole body of literature, filled with my teachings, has sprung up in the Church. Why this rapid spread of my word? Cannot the Church piece things together? How many signs are given so clearly! I will not abandon my Church. I will not abandon my children. I will not abandon the world that tries to call upon me. Abandon them to what? To the trials that are ahead, which lie right around the corner?
Cosmic Powers
As the fires of destruction burn more brightly, I will increase my words. I will always help you, but you must turn to me. Yes, run to the Woman Clothed With the Sun, the Woman to whom the Father has given cosmic powers. Do not say that I work only within hearts. I can stop wars, prevent disasters, and remove the very weapons that can destroy the earth. My help will come to those who ask. First, I must place faith in hearts, so people say “Mary can help us”. Second, I must place fidelity. They must cry out night and day. Third, I must place universality. All must call on me. I want no one sitting on the sidelines with their arms folded say “I’ll wait and see”.
When will the churches be filled – day and night? What needs to happen so the Church gets the message? I speak to the Church because, at least, you give me a hearing.
Pastors, come before me with your people. Forsake your other tasks. They bear little fruit which is quickly swept away. Call an assembly. Come before me with hearts lifted up. I want a praying Church, an adoring Church. I want a Church on its knees and filled with repentance for all the sins of the world. If I get that kind of Church, I will work miracles in your sight.
Comment: Mary gives a definite call to arms and the Church, with its pastors, must listen.
373. The Promises of the Woman
June 23, 2012
Mary
The options narrow. What could have been accomplished, even a decade ago, is no longer available. The longer the wait, the more Satan has the field to himself. The more he can claim and the more he controls. Less and less is left to be rescued. Cities are burned and people go into captivity. Hope is lost for the people who would have responded. Now, they see no reason to resist, or to gather, or to enter the battle.
When will my Church awaken? When will they begin to call upon the Woman Clothed With the Sun? I will gather your spiritual armies. I will collect your holy people. I will instruct them in the depths of their hearts. I would release a Flame of Love that will blind Satan and set the captives free.
A Dedicated Army
I am ready to take extraordinary steps and pour out unheard of graces. I will raise up my children to prophesy in my name. This is what I am trying to reveal. The world and the Church need extraordinary help, however, I am ready to pour this out. But the people must be told that I am the Woman whom the Father has clothed with cosmic powers. I demand an army, not people who come and go. I demand total dedication and complete sacrifice of self.
This is not the time for part-time disciples, or for timid believers. I will be with them totally but they must be with me totally. There are no vacations. This is an all out war and it has already begun but my Church has not sounded the trumpet or called to arms.
I am ready to lead. When is the Church ready to follow? I will set out shortly even if my army is small. If my Pope does not blow the trumpet, I will blow it for him.
Comment: Mary does not speak in a vacuum. World events are spiraling out of control.
374. The Secrets of Medjugorje
June 24, 2012
Mary
I turn to you, little ones, who believe in my word. I do not speak now to the world, nor do I even speak to my Church. I speak, rather, to those in the Church who have a special devotion to me, to those who are aware of the Marian Age and who have prayed and sacrificed for this Age of Mary.
Thirty-one years ago, I began my special visions to the children at Medjugorje and I have appeared there ever since. I have always been faithful to my promise that I would appear every day until each visionary has received my ten secrets. Then, the secrets will begin to happen, announced ahead of time according to my plan. These visitations and these secrets show that I am the Woman Clothed With the Sun. I know what will happen and I can prepare my children for what will happen.
In the great fervor of this little village of Medjugorje much has already happened. Millions have gone there and had their faith renewed. Many have changed their lives. All have come away with new hope.
A New Stage
Today, I want to speak about a new stage, a quicker and more extensive way of spreading the graces of Medjugorje. Even with the widespread popularity, the little village is still unknown to many. Also, the extraordinary graces are held too tightly. They are not fully released in my Church. I will cut the strings and unloose the bonds. I have never wanted these strings and these bonds that have limited the flow of graces.
I must do this, especially because the time of fulfillment is so much closer. In the beginning, the secrets were decades away. Now, that is no longer true. Their fulfillment is at hand and they cannot just happen. There must be a spiritual fervor so all the blessings of Medjugorje can be received. I say this so often. When heaven pours out its blessings, the Church must be ready to receive. Receiving requires preparing. Preparing requires fervor. Fervor requires a firm determination to set aside everything else. Study Medjugorje. Read my messages and prepare your hearts. The time of fulfillment is not far away.
Comment: Many have been spiritually and personally blessed by Medjugorje. Mary now wants a new stage of fervor.
375. Mary’s Emergency Lights
June 25, 2012
Mary
Do not wait. The time is so short. The events will spill out, one after another, with increasing swiftness. Many will be swept away, especially those who have not built their lives on the solid rock of my word.
In these events, you will know what to do. You will say, “My mother has prepared me by her words. I am to take refuge in her heart, which is Noah’s Ark”. Then, I will enlighten you. You will see the steps you need to take to protect yourself and your family. Do not think that this cannot happen. I am not speaking about the events. These will certainly happen. I am speaking about my saving action upon all who listen and act upon my word.
Instructed Ahead of Time
Do not grow fearful. Are not buildings equipped with emergency lights, so in the midst of a power failure, all is not dark? So, when the lights that you now have are darkened, my light within you will begin to shine. That is why I must instruct you ahead of time and you must learn now how to walk in my light within you. When the events begin, it will be the only light that you have. My light will be enough, but you must learn now how to receive this light and how to follow this light. Do not put this off. It is like a person learning to swim before the floods come.
Comment: This time, before the events, is very important. Reader, let Mary develop your spiritual powers so you become sensitive to her inner light in your soul.
376. The Tabernacle of the Holy Spirit
June 26, 2012
Mary
I open doors of graces that have been closed up to now. Has not the world stumbled upon greater powers of destruction? Does not man have greater powers than before? How can my Church be effective in the modern world unless I, too, unleash greater gifts, a greater intimacy with God and greater powers of service? However, few will discover these unless I speak. So, I announce to the world a new era of the Holy Spirit which will be inaugurated through my Immaculate Heart.
When I speak of my Immaculate Heart, I am really speaking of the Holy Spirit who dwells there, as a host in a tabernacle. Is not the host be adored? And where is the host? In the tabernacle. No one adores the tabernacle, even though it is beautiful and artistically formed.
The Value of the Tabernacle
The true value of the tabernacle is to help the people know where the host is. So, please, do not adore my Immaculate Heart. It is only a tabernacle, beautiful and artistically formed by grace. Its value is to help people to know where the Holy Spirit abides.
At times, the host goes forth to sanctify the people in the mystery of Holy Communion. So, the Spirit goes forth to pour out all his gifts, but then he returns to my heart to take up his continual abiding. All can know the secret. If you want to worship and adore the Holy Spirit, come to my Immaculate Heart.
Comment: This is a very deep teaching, explaining so clearly why devotion to the Immaculate Heart is a certain door to the Holy Spirit.
377. Do Not Forget the Unborn
June 28, 2012
Mary
Everything continues to unravel, all that my hand had tightly brought together as I formed America. I rooted her in the religious traditions of her ancestors. I gave her the clearest of Constitutions. I spread before her this land, from sea to shining sea.
I appeared to General Washington and told him of my care for the Republic. Now, the Republic unravels at an amazing pace. Interest groups rise up. Politicians swerve off the mark. My people are scattered. Everything is coming apart.
Ills will come upon an America whom I love and whom I hold deep in my heart. She will be buffeted from every side, but it will be the internal strife that will most quickly rip her apart. Her unity will be in jeopardy. The Constitution itself, will be greatly tested by all the forces pulling in so many different directions. I have spoken before and I will speak again. A Constitution that does not protect the unborn is no Constitution at all.
A Disintegrating Constitution
Repair your Constitution, America, before it is too late and the forces of disintegration take firm hold. You do not see this. It is hidden from your eyes. You think all is well when the hidden foundation of your society is rotting away.
How many aborted babies do I need to count? Their number mounts higher every day. They weigh heavily on the scales of justice and you are found wanting on the other side. I knew their names. They are written on the walls of my heart, like you inscribe your deceased war heroes on your walls.
Who speaks about them? Are they a serious issue in your political campaign? They have been knocked down the ladder of political priorities. But they still stand at the top of my list. Those politicians who seriously take up the cause of the unborn, I will place in my heart and I will guide them through the Halls of Congress, placing them in important positions. To the voters and to the candidates, I say “Do not forget the Unborn”.
Comment: Mary correctly brings the abortion issue to the center of the agenda.
378. The Heart of the Church
June 29, 2012
Mary
“Upon this rock I will build my Church”. How I have guided the Church all through these centuries, always keeping alive the light of faith. There were so many tortuous moments, so many times when the Church could have failed. Now, it stretches throughout the world and is present in many cultures. This is its security, to be planted in diverse soils. Therefore, when the Church is threatened in one culture, it can thrive in another. This always happens. The Church decays in one place and flourishes in another.
Yet, is this enough? Does not the Father give life? Why should the Church not experience a full life in all of its members? What is flourishing will flourish even more and what is decaying will return to full life?
A Weak Flow of Blood
The secret lies in the heart and in the flow of blood. When the heart is weak, the blood flows too slowly and the body grows weak. From that, comes the lessening of the Church’s vitality and an inability to make new members or even to sustain the life of existing members. I must renew the Church at its heart. Then God’s life will reach to the ends of the earth.
So many waste their time trying to strengthen an arm or a leg and they waste their time. I will teach you how to renew the Church’s heart.
First, the heart is hidden, at the very center of the body. Only hidden acts can renew the heart. The heart beats loudly in the silence of the body. So, the Church must enter into a profound silence. The Church’s heart must beat as one with my heart. This makes the hiddenness and the silence to be effective.
The Church must listen to my heart so that its heart beats with the same rhythm, with the same love. I will quickly heal and strengthen the Church’s heart only if our two hearts are placed together. This is the deep mystical gift I offer today. Place your heart next to my heart. New life will flow and all will be made young again.
Comment: The Church is 2000 years old but can always become new by Mary’s heart.
379. A Worldwide Experience
June 30, 2012
Mary
No one knows where to turn. There are no answers on any side. The human race has taken its own path, fueled by the selfishness of nations and people. What else can be expected? Man without God has only illusory lights and false goals. Without God, man chooses only earthly goals. Passion and selfishness guide his choices and man always believes that he can figure out the right answer.
Everything goes astray when the human heart strays. A brilliant intellect only complicates the problems even more.
Can Mankind Be Saved?
As mankind hurtles to the inevitable where forces beyond his control and beyond his intellect have foolishly led him, the question is always the same. Can mankind be saved? Can the human family avoid an atomic conflagration? Can the forces of greed be turned around so that economies do not collapse?
These are not superficial questions, answered by legislation or treaties or conferences or the coming together of nations. These are profound questions. They began from the disorders of the human heart and they can only be solved by a conversion of the human heart.
A Worldwide Preacher
Yet, who can bring this about? What preacher can bring mankind to its knees? Who can bring about a massive repentance and a turning back to God? Who can renew mankind and reestablish the whole human race in a new innocence?
There must be a divine intrusion, a special saving moment, a worldwide, interior experience that touches every human heart. This is my goal as the Woman Clothed With the Sun. It will not be easy. It will not be the work of one moment or of one day, but this is the only solution. Come, let us begin. Let us prepare. To all who ask, I will pour out my great light of repentance.
I will begin with the little ones who already look for me. I will increase their light so they are totally absorbed in me. This will be the first step.
Comment: Mary speaks of gigantic problems and gigantic solutions that begin now.
380. Preparing For the Coming Tragedies
July 1, 2012
Mary
I lead you by a small and gentle path. Do not think of the enormous problems which will soon crash upon the world. Does not a mother look ahead to provide for her children in times of adversity? So, I can provide for all my children, wherever they are on the face of the earth. The coming tragedies will touch all of them differently and the means I will provide will also be different. However, some parts will be common to all. These I must explain.
First, you cannot survive by yourself. You need others. All must be gathered in my Immaculate Heart and all must share in a true devotion to me. Salvation will come as the group accepts me as their Mother, calls upon me for help, and listens to my words.
Leaders For The Group
In each group, I will raise up leaders for my people. These leaders must have hearts united with my heart. Otherwise, they will lead the group in the wrong direction.
Also, individualism and personal goals must be set aside. Many will be in need and I will provide by the service and generosity among the members. There will be no other way. This is a simple plan but all must begin now. These groups and these relationships in faith do not spring up overnight. They are formed daily in my heart.
Family Prayer
Where can you begin? Start with family prayer. How can I unite many families in prayer if the individual family is not united in prayer? Gather the family every night. Teach them the Rosary. That is your first step. Do not omit this. Take this first step and I will show you your next step. Don’t forget. The goal is for many to group together in faith relationships.
Comment: Mary offers a solution that can be used everywhere. First, each family must be united in prayer. Second, families must join together in her heart. Third, leaders must rise up – but only leaders who truly love her.
381. Finding the Road of Life
July 2, 2012
Mary
You do not know the road that leads to life. It is hidden from your sight. This is not as it was meant to be. Mankind was supposed to see this road so all could walk it easily. But human history has been darkened by sin and the human heart has been blinded. Man cannot find the only important road leading to eternal life. It is covered over and hidden, kept out of sight by Satan who places other roads before your eyes saying, “Walk this road or that road”, so you forget about the road of life.
He says, “This road will give you power. This road will gain you pleasure. This road will gain you all that you desire”. The road you choose does not matter to him, as long as you show no interest in the road to eternal life.
Mary’s Road
So, I come and say to you, “All these other roads do not fulfill your purpose on earth. You cannot stumble upon the road to eternal life. You do not suddenly find yourself walking on it. It does not appear out of the blue”. Yet, it can easily be found and walked. This begins with your inner desires. Oh, your inner desires! They are so scattered. They often make no sense. Even worse, they are sometimes sinful. This only increases the darkness.
Right now, I ask your permission to sweep away these desires. Yes, I need your permission to act. “Mary, sweep away my desires that lead me into darkness”. Say that often and I will sweep them away. You will find yourself in the pasture of peace. Stay there. I will come quickly for you and show you your road to eternal life.
Comment: Mary describes so many whose desires lead them along a dark road.
382. Bringing Jesus to the World
July 3, 2012
Mary
Do not parents look for their children? Do not those who are in love look for each other? The human heart goes forth. It searches, sometimes not even knowing what it searches for. This is mankind – always searching and looking, but so often looking for the wrong thing or not even knowing what to look for.
The restlessness of the human heart. This is the great mystery. This restlessness has led to everything – great discoveries and great wars, great blessings and great destruction. God made the human heart restless so it would seek and find him. He sent his only Son, Jesus, so we could find him more easily. Now, he sends me, the Woman Clothed With the Sun, so all can see.
Giving Birth to Jesus
My task is to bring God closer to man. I have already done this as a Jewish woman giving birth to Jesus, the Savior. Now, I will do it a second time in my role as the Woman. Yes, I will again bring Jesus to the world. This will not be in the form of a new-born baby, but Jesus as the Son of Man, the Jesus of glory, the Jesus of Revelation.
This is a great mystery which I have tried to explain and will continue to explain.
Divine Visitations
There are many divine visitations, moments when God comes upon earth with very special manifestations. There are histories of these events, which are accompanied by unique manifestations and repentant hearts. These moments leave behind great spiritual effects and people try to describe what has happened to them.
This is what I will begin to bring about as the Woman Clothed with the Sun and this is what I mean when I say that the Father has given me the task of again bringing Jesus to the world. This will be through special moments and seasons of refreshment, special signs and wonders, and a special presence of Jesus.
These will happen more often and will be more sustained and fruitful if those who receive them honor me as the Woman Clothed With the Sun.
Comment: Religious history records times and places of God’s visitations. Mary says that this will be her gift to man’s restless heart.
383. America’s Future New Life
July 4, 2012
Mary
On this day, could I speak about anything except America? I hold her in my heart and I hold her in my dreams. In my heart, for all that she has done. In my dreams, for all she can still do.
But it is a withered and a frail America, shrunken from all the attacks, not upon her body but upon her soul. These attacks have come from everywhere. Her legal system allows a mother to kill the child of her womb and the growing selfishness of spending buys what it cannot afford.
America’s Problems
Yet, to whom else can I turn? Who else is ready to step forward and to lead? What a shame that America has fallen from her lofty ideals. Its body is sick from its drugs and its mind is numbed by its ceaseless entertainments. Its young are confused when so few opportunities are available. The young do not marry as they used to, and those who marry do not have the number of children which their parents and grandparents had. What can be the future of such a country? The body and the soul will weaken and will become subject to even greater ills.
Yet, I repeat. America is in my heart. There is only one America. I will not choose another. I will not put another in her place. I will not say, “Step down, America, your time of greatness has come and gone. What happened to the Greeks and the Romans has happened to you. This is the usual course of civilization”.
Mary’s Promise
Is there some way that America will survive and keep its place? Do I have a surprise in store for America? Do I hold a special gift in my heart? Am I not the Woman Clothed With the Sun? Can I not and will I not clothe you, America, in my Sun? I reveal this to you. See and heed, sons and daughters of the Republic. In you I have placed a seed of greatness that still waits to be opened. Every American who comes to my heart, can be nourished in this seed and a new harvest will be planted.
Comment: This is surprising. A whole new life lies in the future for America if people go to Mary.
384. Removing Destructive Leaders
July 5, 2012
Mary
When a mother sees a storm coming, does she not draw her children close to herself. This is her protective, maternal instinct. She wants to preserve them from harm. She even senses danger when no one else is yet aware.
My heart is alert. I see what lies ahead, the dangers that are still hidden. It is not my task to reveal them but merely to say that the future is filled with dangers which cannot be removed overnight.
Missing the Iceberg
Can mankind move away from these destructive forces? Is it possible that the ship will miss the iceberg? Can difficulties loom on the horizon and yet never happen? There is always hope, but hope must not be placed in the power of man.
I speak today of placing hope in heaven’s hands. Heaven can do anything and heaven wants to help earth, but earth does not believe. It has built its own world and created its own powers, so quickly and completely setting aside the powers of heaven. Yet, heaven refuses to be set aside. Even if man forgets, heaven intervenes. The God who created earth has no desire that it be destroyed and he has every hope that men will turn to him and be saved. So, I will reveal what will take place.
Man’s Freedom
Because earth does not call on heaven, it will continue to go its own way and bring about its own destruction. Man is free and God has give him the earth to cultivate and care for. This basic decision of God will never be reversed until my Son comes in glory. Yet, without reversing this decision, without removing totally the reins from men’s hands, the Father can intervene.
God’s Action
Some people on this earth hold enormous power that they intend to use to destroy. These people can be removed and the power taken from their hands. This is what you will see. You will witness surprising events when destructive leaders will topple.
When this happens, give thanks to the heavenly Father. Mankind still remains free but some who would hasten the destruction of the earth will be removed.
Comment: Mary explains that God has given mankind freedom and will not change that decision. However, God can topple leaders.
385. A Surprising Gift For Lost Souls
July 6, 2012
Mary
I open up my heart and anyone can enter. It will close only when filled to capacity. It remains open while I go in search of the lost souls. I find them everywhere. Some are lonely, while others are in the midst of many friends. But, all are lost souls, having no faith or hope or any friendship with God.
Can I not gather them up and draw them in? Are they to be lost forever, having no life with God? No. I will do the surprising. You will see it before your very eyes. Believe now even when you have not seen.
God’s Actions
I will touch the lost. My Son came to save the sinners. He wants those who are far away to come close. He wants those who do not know him to invoke him and call upon his name. Do not say that it is impossible to have an enormous stirring in the hearts of the unchurched. Light will be given directly to the heart and will call forth a massive response. People will put aside what is superficial and will call on the name of the Lord.
At first, others will wonder if this is true. But, the evidence will convince all that I am bringing about a worldwide conversion and am beginning in the strangest places – in the hearts of the lost. If those who profess to have faith continue to abandon this gift, then I must fill their places with those who have never called on me before.
Comment: Many have no faith. Mary promises a direct touching of their hearts.
386. Paths Freed From Turmoil
July 7, 2012
Mary
I lead you along a very simple path which I want all the world to learn. My path demands a leaving behind, a detachment from unneeded possessions. Even more, a leaving behind of selfish desires. Even more, a leaving behind of your own thoughts and plans.
When I say to you, “Follow me”, you can come only if you give up your path and your decisions. You must see me as the Woman Clothed with the Sun, who sees all that is ahead and who knows the safe paths.
Mary’s Path
It is not enough to have devotion to me. You must follow me. Walk with me. Choose my paths. Some are very obedient. They have no interest in any other path. These I protect all the time, with a marvelous and miraculous protection. Let me teach you this truth. My paths are as free from suffering as is possible in this life. There are two types of suffering. The normal hardships that accompany living in this place of exile and satanic hardships which are useless. He multiplies fears, anxieties, envy and hatred. He makes fires burn within you, that need never be lit. He leads you into his situations. These are traps which he sets through people whom he dominates.
My paths are free of all of this. Satan does not know my paths. Even if he did, he would not enter because they are all in my heart. So, I say, “Come follow me. I will show you my paths which you can easily walk.
Comment: Our paths are so often filled with conflict, inner battles and problems that should not be there. Mary always teaches that life is not meant to be as difficult s it is. Her paths are different.
387. Casting New Fire on the Earth
July 8, 2012
Mary
I will pour out graces directly into the hearts of my children and they will know that I am with them. O reader, seek this inner enlightenment which I will make so abundant. All eyes must be opened. This is why I speak. I announce a new moment, a new creation, a new heaven and a new earth. All of this will begin, O reader, in your heart and in the outpouring of my fire of divine love, a new gift, formerly unheard of, yet now available to all, right now, in your own heart.
Mary, The New Preacher
I cannot wait for the preachers to announce this or for those in authority to proclaim it. I am proclaiming a new moment, when divine fire is poured out from my Immaculate Heart.
It had to come to this. The darkness is moving too swiftly and too powerfully, destroying and covering over the usual means of divine light. So, I have decided to begin early in casting new fire upon the world, not the damaging fire of destruction but God’s fire of a new creation.
In this fire, all will be made new, beginning with the heart of the one who receives. But soon after that, his family and his friends will also receive this fire. Come, let us begin. Do not delay. I am casting new fire on the earth.
Comment: The darkness has encaptured so many and has destroyed the usual sources of divine light. So, Mary must bring the new fire directly to every heart. As many experience this, people will know a new gift is present (like cell phones instead of land phones).
388. Children Playing with Nuclear Weapons
July 9, 2012
Mary
To what shall I liken this generation? They are like children playing in the square but holding weapons of mass destruction. They spend money that they do not have on weapons which they cannot control. They foolishly think that they are adults, when really they are children.
Children With Weapons
I say they are children. They are foolish children and the weapons must be destroyed, once and for all. They cannot be allowed to remain. They offer too great an attraction. They are a coveted prize for those who seek to destroy. They are a power, held now by few but soon to be held by many. They will proliferate, especially in the volatile Middle East, beginning with Iran but soon spreading to other nations. Soon, the world will be a powder keg, with foolish children controlling the most destructive possible weapons.
Is this not where it is all headed, if mankind is left on its own? What happens to children, when no adult is on the scene to act as peacemaker? Where is the adult peacemaker as the children build their nuclear weapons? Who has the power to check this growth which comes from the hearts of those seeking status in the nuclear club?
No Peacemakers
No one is on the scene. No one can tell the children to put their weapons away. O earth, how far must you go down the nuclear road until you turn to heaven for help? I will not wait. I will act before it happens. I will bring peace in my own way. I have a plan and I will bring it about through my Holy Father. He will consecrate Russia to me and then will give himself up to the fullness of my will. By his death, peace will come.
Comment: Our Lady returns to the Fatima vision of the death of the Holy Father, a vision given to Lucy on July 13, 1917.
389. The Final Locution
July 11, 2012
Mary
I take you slowly, step by step, down this road. I go slowly so you can see where you are walking. When we arrive at the end, you are fully certain. There have been so many little steps over a long period of time, all leading in the same direction. So, where have these messages led you since they began? Many parts are very clear and to these, you can cling in faith.
The Five Themes
First, this is the Age of the Woman Clothed in With the Sun, a special age when the world will need the protection and guidance that I will provide.
Second, this is an age of great upheaval, never before seen on earth because, beneath the surface, evil is boiling over and is bound to pour out in many places in many different ways.
Third, mankind has lost its faith in heaven and has taken to itself all power. It does not call on heaven’s help and does not want to hear heaven’s voice.
Fourth, the time is very near when shocking, inconceivable events might occur.
Fifth, it is not too late. Prayer is always answered and, sometimes, heaven acts without being invited, when the results would be too catastrophic.
This is the picture. The road I have slowly led you down by all of these messages. Anyone who has read them will agree that these have been the themes, explained over and over again. I began to speak over 18 months ago. Now is the time to bring these messages to a conclusion.
Let them stand as a permanent guiding light to all the world. I conclude them because they have a lasting value and should not be the subject of speculation.
In the future, I will find another, more powerful way of communicating with my children. Let them see these messages for what they are – a gift of my special love for them.
While I say “goodbye”, I also say that I am with you always in the depth of your hearts.
Listen in silence and I will speak clearly.
Comment: Suddenly, Mary brings these locutions to an end. They are completed. Read them often. You will understand them better than ever.
300. Traveling to See Elizabeth
March 26, 2012
Mary
After Gabriel left, I was alone and able to ponder what had just happened. The miracle had taken place. The Word had become flesh. I was pregnant with the heavenly Father’s Son. I had become the bride of the eternal Holy Spirit. Now, I had to live out this mystery. Where should I go from here? What would be my first steps?
A New Light
I found a new light within me. Formerly, this inner light had guided me to perfection and showed me the way to be pleasing to God. Now, this new light would show me how to be God’s mother. All was clear. The angel had revealed God’s miracle to Elizabeth. I would go there and we would rejoice together, each of us sharing what God had done within our wombs, for in both of us there was miraculous life.
It was not easy to say “goodbye”. How could I explain this decision? All I could say to others was that my heart was set on it. When would I return? I had to say that I did not know. Of course, Joseph was the most difficult of all. He was puzzled. So recently, we had come to our decision. Now, I was leaving Nazareth for far away Judea (90 miles). I knew I had to go, so I set out in haste for the hill country of Judea.
With Elizabeth
I was alone on the journey and better able to ponder the events that had overtaken me. Within my womb I carried the Savior of the world. Within my heart, I carried this secret known only to me. As I arrived at Zechariah’s house, Elizabeth broke out into prophetic words, “Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb”. The Spirit had placed these words on her lips. She went on “Who am I that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” She knew that I was pregnant with God’s Son. The Lord had given me a companion in my mystery. I was no longer alone in the universe because our hearts were joined by divine revelation. Then, she said those final words, “Blessed are you who believed that the Lord’s words to you would be fulfilled”.
Special Memories
Suddenly, I was back in spirit in Nazareth, at that moment when Gabriel revealed the mystery and when everything had been placed before me. I understood clearly what the angel was saying. However, would I believe that it was true? God flooded my heart with this extraordinary divine light and my mind believed that God wanted to take flesh within me. All that Gabriel had proclaimed in just a few words was God’s invitation. Within I was saying, “I believe. I believe”. My mind did not move to the right or to the left. I did not ponder the consequences. My eyes focused only on the mystery and I repeated those words, “I believe. I believe”. As I said those words, my heart rushed to the center of the mystery, drawn by the almighty hand of God. Suddenly, I was there, on the edge of eternity, at the brink of the mystery, ready to fall forever into the arms of the Father. Elizabeth was right, “Blessed are you who believed that the Lord’s words to you would be fulfilled.”
In her presence, I relived those moments. How many times, God would always lead me back to that scene of divine intimacy. It was so good to be with Zechariah and Elizabeth. They had their own divine mystery, a child leaping in her womb and filling her with the Holy Spirit.
