Waiting to receive Message given to Marija

09/25/2010

Today is a rainy day in Medjugorje. Some of our group did get the opportunity to climb Mt. Kriezvac yesterday afternoon. The weather here has been absolutely beautiful. I had the opportunity the other day to climb Apparition Hill barefoot praying the Joyful Mysteries and offering the act of Penance for a friend who is waiting for surgery on an anuerysm that is affecting her eyesight. It certainly took me much longer to go up and when I did put my shoes back on I truly appreciated them even more.

I am sure that we are all waiting to receive the message of the 25th of the month today. What I believe is so important that we truly look to pay attention to the messages and seek to put them into practice rather than just wait for the 25th and the 2nd of the month. We all know that one day the messages will stop and then what will happen? As soon as I receive it and I am able to get internet access then I will post it. I believe this evening there will be all night adoration in the church to better understand the message.

Consecrate Yourself to Mary
Using the Consecration Prayer
of St. Louis-Marie de Montfort

I, (Name), a faithless sinner, renew and ratify today in your hands the vows of my Baptism; I renounce forever Satan, his pomps and works; and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to Him than I have ever been before.

In the presence of all the heavenly court I choose you this day for my Mother and Queen. I deliver and consecrate to you, as your slave, my body and soul, my goods, both interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present and future; leaving to you the entire and full right of disposing of me, and all that belongs to me, without exception, according to your good pleasure, for the greater glory of God, in time and in eternity.

Pray, Pray, Pray by Paddy Kelly (Br. John Paul Mary)

This song was written after his first trip to Medjugorje in 2004

The world is like a river of which we drink
but our sins pollute the water
And now the river is flooded so we must build
and ark of faith and trust in divine providence
I was in a room of darkness it wasn't
enough to open the window for air
I had to unlock the door so I searched for
the key and what I found was
Our Lady of Medugorje saying to:

Chorus:

Pray, pray pray pray, pray pray pray,
for a happier day, oh come on and
pray, pray pray pray, pray pray pray,
and the Lord will show you the way.

Me and my brothers and sisters we were struggling
between heaven and hell
We found it hard to understand how we got
sunk into a spiral of negative and demonic spells
So we went on a pilgrimage searching for healing
at the heavenly wells
We came across a wise man telling us children it's very
simple, conversion, mass the sacraments and

Chorus

Oh we've got to pray, pray pray pray,
pray pray pray for a happier day

Need a childlike faith to enter into heaven
'til the harvesters come don't be afraid

We all have our crosses to carry if we carry
them humbly there's no need to worry
If we forgive we'll be forgiven then our
purified hearts will feel the
presence of God's eternal love burn inside
I ain't no religious expert but I don't have to
be to know that God ain't illusion
I'm testifying what I witness 'cause a faith
without acts is a dead faith that's why
I wrote this song so we can

Chorus

Oh we've got to pray, pray pray pray,
pray pray pray for a happier day

Pray pray pray for a happier day
Got to pray for a better day
Pray pray pray for a happier day
Got to pray for a better day
Pray pray pray for a happier day
Got to pray for a better day
Pray pray pray for a happier day
Got to pray for a better day
Pray pray pray for a happier day

The Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help or sought your intercession,
was left unaided.

Inspired with this confidence,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother;
to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful.

O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in your mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.

We seek to do as best we can in everything that is expected of us in order to become holy. The most important thing is to draw near to God by living for him; everything else is secondary.

- Blessed Josaphat Chichkov (1919 - 1952), Priest
