"Dear children! I call you to, with complete trust and joy, bless the name of the Lord and, day by day, to give Him thanks from the heart for His great love. My Son, through that love which He showed by the Cross, gave you the possibility to be forgiven for everything; so that you do not have to be ashamed or to hide, and out of fear not to open the door of your heart to my Son. To the contrary, my children, reconcile with the Heavenly Father so that you may be able to come to love yourselves as my Son loves you. When you come to love yourselves, you will also love others; in them you will see my Son and recognize the greatness of His love. Live in faith! Through me, my Son is preparing you for the works which He desires to do through you – works through which He desires to be glorified. Give Him thanks. Especially thank Him for the shepherds - for your intercessors in the reconcilliation with the Heavenly Father. I am thanking you, my children. Thank you."
Do you think this sentence has any significance to our current Pope ? (since he has been attacked so much as a false pope ) Give Him thanks. Especially thank Him for the shepherds
Of course it has This is only second to saying "especially thank Him for your new Pope!" "Especially thank Him for the shepherds - for your intercessors in the reconciliation with the Heavenly Father."The whole message is an amazing echo, confirmation, and rewording of the message of Pope Francis during the Angelus, about God forgiving always, loving always, God is mercy. It's quite awesome !!!!! http://www.catholicnews.com/data/stories/cns/1301237.htm http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/17/pope-francis-angelus_n_2895597.html Thank you Blessed Mother!!!
Actually I think that our Blessed Mother is doing more than echoing Pope Francis message, she is specifying what he didn't say: Pope Francis: The Lord never tires of forgiving," "It is we who tire of asking for forgiveness." Our Blessed Mother: your intercessors in the reconciliation with the Heavenly Father. It seems to me that Mary is saying: don't make God's forgiveness cheap. It is always available THROUGH THE MINISTRY OF YOUR SHEPHERDS! So we have to go to confession. Don't take it light
It's possible. But I think if she had been indicating past tense as well as present she would have signified this in what she said. Its an outside chance but maybe she was referring to the Bishops on the Vatican Commision investigating the site? Or else all Bishops in General?
I just rechecked the message the line before says.. 'Through me, my Son is preparing you for the works which He desires to do through you – works through which He desires to be glorified.' This leads me to suspect more strongly she refers to the Papal Commision investigating.... In January, Commission chairman Cardinal Camillo Ruini said that a bit more work is needed, but that he hoped the Commission could finish before long.
I to I understood it to mean that she was going to work through us, those of us who live the Gospels, pray and do all that she asks. I can certainly see where she has moved so much in my life and got me up working for the Kingdom of God.
Yes, I thought she meant us, too. Our Mother invites us to reconciliation{confession} again as WCWTS said. Our lady has said that confession would be a cure for what ails the west{paraphrasing}.I did hit me though that she said to give thanks for our shepherds. She usually says to pray for your shepherds at the end of Mirjana's messages, which she has been saying for quite a while. Perhaps all our prayers have accomplished something, a wonderful new Pope named Francis. I LOVE HIM!!!
Yes, I thought she meant us too. And great point on noticing she thanked us at the end of the message, as opposed to asking us to pray for our shepherds. Perhaps something was accomplished! I don't think anything special/important happened today...so maybe this is not the year march 18th is an important date in the Medj world. although, something may come to light later, that we just can't see now.
There has been a lot of speculating about the 18'th of March going around and this is what Sean Bloomfield{he worked with Mirjana in filming "The Triumph"} said about it- Mirjana has said that March 18'th is a very significant day, and we will only know why in the future when the secrets are revealed.{my bold print}
