The Vigil of the Feast of the Presentation of Jesus

 

My dear little children, praised be Jesus!

 

Little ones, there are many hardships in life.  It is not often easy.  Oftentimes many people suffer.  Oftentimes many people do not understand why they have to suffer.  So there is sorrow in the lives of many people.

 

I can tell you that the world continues, day to day.  If someone is suffering hardship, it will amaze you how people will walk by them and be thinking of something else, not paying attention to their pain—as if the world had just stopped and they were watching a movie.  How is it that people can be so inconsiderate and not show support and compassion, lending a hand of assistance to those in need when they suffer?  The world is so busy, with people moment to moment distracted by so many things.  A catastrophic event could happen, and the next day people would be thinking of something else.  Those, who are immune to the effects of sorrow in other people’s lives or even take joy in them, are grasped by evil and their own selfish ways. 

 

That is why faith must be at the center of your life and your prayer; because only then will God give you peace in your heart and in your families, and you will be able to not only understand, but to know how to help others.  It is with prayer and in your own way that you will see that God is close to you and how special you are, and that you have been put on this world for a great mission—a mission for your life, for your happiness, for your freedom, and for the love and unity of all peoples. 

 

You are truly blessed because you listen and you try, even though sorrow or pain may afflict you.  That is inevitable; but never give up prayer, because the closer you are in prayer to God, the more joy you will carry, and the more endurance and strength you will have to help others. 

 

Every person has a different way of praying, but I can tell you that every person is loved equally by God.  There is no favoritism or special treatment.  Everyone is loved by God!  Those who receive more are those who desire it and those who pray with all their heart.  So many things in the world could be stopped, and life could be lived to its fullest, if people would simply pray. 

 

Faith is the key, and you have it.  Your way of life and your love for others will help others to rekindle their faith too; for every person is graced with the gift of faith.  You have the choice, as every person has the choice, to choose to use your faith, to cultivate it and to develop it so as to have a close union with God.

 

I love you, and I bless you with God’s most powerful blessing—that of the Child!  Thank you, little ones, for listening.  Peace (fading whisper).
