God the Father – “The inner recesses of My Heart hold the promise of Heaven upon earth”

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“The inner recesses of My Heart hold the promise of Heaven upon earth. Man can attain this if he chooses. To do so, he must love Me above all else. Everything else in his life must be viewed and accepted in relation to his love of Me. Every desire, every victory and every defeat must be accepted as My Loving Will. I choose for you only what you need for your salvation. I assist you in accepting the most bitter crosses and I celebrate with you every joy and every grace. The soul that can relate to My Paternal friendship is the one who is at peace.”

“Peace begins first in the heart and from the heart, spreads to the world around the soul. It is in this way, Heaven is yours upon earth. For this reason, you must stay close to My Paternal Heart, so that the peace I desire for you can flourish and spread for all to witness.”

“Beyond this, I desire your unity and oneness of purpose. My Remnant will be recognizable as those who pray, sacrifice, cling to Tradition and are at peace.”

Read 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17+

But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth. To this he called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter. Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.

A Beautiful Testimony about Holy Love Ministries and the New York Healing Conference (2019) – MaryRefugeOfHolyLove

COMMENT (By a soul):
I have a gift to share with you all. A devoted blog follower of MaryRefugeOfHolyLove has provided me with her testimonies of her experience at the New York Healing Conference held in late June 2019 with Anna Marie of the Apostolate of the Green Scapular (https://www.greenscapular.org); as well as her pilgrimage to Holy Love Ministries (http://www.holylove.org) on August 4, 2019–the Feast of God the Father in which He imparted His Patriarchal Blessing to those present in the holy field.

It is a joy for me to share this with you all, especially, for those who still may be on the fence about the authenticity of the heavenly messages at Holy Love Ministries; as well as for those who are considering attending Anna Marie’s last healing conference in California, which will take place Spring 2020.

Currently, there will be a special apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary taking place on Monday, October 7, 2019, at Holy Love Ministries, which is open to the public.  The Blessed Mother will be imparting Her Special Blessing on attendees.

Dear a soul:

Testimony: New York Healing Conference (2019)

After attending the New York Healing conference on June 28-30, 2019 by Anna Marie of the Apostolate of Green Scapular; I was reluctant to share that God has truly blessed me with a lot of spiritual graces. Before attending the conference, I was going through and still dealing with very difficult spiritual battles. I was constantly exhausted to the point that I could not get enough sleep at night and I would always wake up around 3am, the unholy hour. Instead of getting up and attending Holy Mass, I was just too worn out, I would always stay in bed sleeping and not doing my prayers. It seems that there was not enough time in the day for me to sleep. I always felt this heavy burden on my shoulders and in the back of my head. During the retreat, Anna Marie talked about exactly what I was going through, it was like God told her about me. Now don’t get me wrong, I have tried my best to keep a close relationship with God but somehow I lost my intimate relationship with him with everything I am going through with my kids. This happened after my husband walked out of our lives leaving me in charge of everything. It has been too much for me to handle but God has been there with me always. Anna Marie prayed for everyone there to be healed and to have discernment. I can say that I felt so much peace when the conference was over because I felt the huge weight was lifted off from me. Ever since, I have been trying to be closer to God again. My relationship with him is so unique because I trust in His Holy Will. My one experience that has touched me so deeply is during my recent trip to Holy Love Ministries – I hope that anyone that loves God keeps searching to be always close to him. Never give up praying, I know I am not perfect and I do have my struggles, but God gives me the strength to keep carrying my cross. He has never abandoned me. I thank God for letting me meet Anna Marie because she is God’s blessed instrument and without her Healing Conference I would probably not be as close to my Lord. Although I am not worthy.

Testimony: Holy Love Ministries, August 4, 2019

(My Holy Love Experience)

It has taken me this long to have the courage to write because I am not worthy. Although, God’s infinite grace is wanting me to share my experience during the August 4th, God the Father’s blessing.

On that day, my children and I met my parents and sisters’ family at the parking lot and we sat not too far from the little house to hear the prayers through the speaker facing the Holy hill. It happened during the 4th Glorious mystery; I was looking at the blessed hearts of Mary and Jesus, when I saw this cloud that also looked like a fog appearing in between the middle of Mary and Jesus. At first I thought that it was not real but then I heard a voice telling me “God is here”. At that same moment the lady doing the rosary said “everyone kneel”. I started crying because I knew that I had just witnessed and heard something extraordinary. I did not go to Holy Love Ministries looking for proof because I truly believe that God is there. I was there to get the blessings for my kids and myself for the coming events God is announcing to the world and how we need to be prepared spiritually. Unfortunately, I am a single mother of 4 that has been trying to keep myself and my kids in God’s path and I was discouraged by the lies of satan telling me that it did not happen that it was not real. When I read the message from God the Father from August 13th, I knew that he wanted me to share my amazing experience so others can realize that Holy Love is a place of healing, praying, special graces, gifts and to have an individual relationship with Him. We all are in his hands and I thank Him for everything he does for my kids and myself.

Papa God loves us so much and waits for everyone to return to him. He gave me a gift that I do not deserve because I believe in Him even without seeing. In these scenarios, it is not necessary to see and believe, Christ has said “Blessed are those who believe without seeing”. I hope anyone that comes to Holy Love Ministries, comes without looking for signs because if you really believe in him, you do not need proof of his existence. Only He can choose to make us see or hear him. God bless you!

Mary, my mother, my fortress, protect us under your holy mantle and keep us always in front of the Blessed Trinity so the provision, providence, and Holy Will is always done in our lives. Amen.

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“My child, I wish to explain that there is a difference between interior graces and exterior graces. You know this as a result of all the rosaries you have said, but many do not understand this. An exterior grace happens outside of the individual soul, such as the sun spinning or physical healings. An interior grace takes place deep within the soul, such as the experience of feeling My Presence when at prayer or during an apparition.”

“Many in the field on August 4th* experienced one or the other type of grace – interior or exterior. I lovingly ask for testimonies** to be reported to the Ministry*** as signs of faith. Do not let the evil one discourage you or cause you to doubt. He is the enemy of Truth. Do not discount the resolution of difficult situations days after the Patriarchal Blessing.****

Trailer – Love and Mercy: Faustina (2:01 minutes)

(Source: https://www.thedivinemercy.org/articles/faustina-film-hits-movie-theaters-nationwide-oct-28/)

In the 1930s, our Lord revealed to an unknown religious sister a message for our times. To an age marked by conflict, despair, lack of respect for human life and dignity, and in need of His forgiveness and merciful love, He said, “Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy” (Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, 300).

Now this incredible true story of St. Faustina and the message of Divine Mercy will be told one night only in more than 700 movie theaters across the United States on Oct. 28, in the new film “Love and Mercy: Faustina.” The docudrama follows the incredible call of St. Faustina to religious life and the healing effects of this message on countless people around the world.

The Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception served as consultants for this 120-minute docudrama that was written and directed by Michal Kondrat.

For a complete list of theater locations and to order tickets, visit: https://www.fathomevents.com/events/faustina-love-and-mercy

If you cannot attend a theatrical screening on Oct. 28, we invite you to sign up to receive a DVD of the film once we make it available. Sign up: https://www.thedivinemercy.org/loveandmercy

“The idea to create ‘Love and Mercy’ first came to me two years ago after reading the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska,” said Mr. Kondrat, who filmed in his native Poland as well as at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, and locations in Lithuania, and Italy.

“Divine Mercy is changing millions of lives, but most Christians are still unaware of the power of the message that Jesus gave to humanity through Sr. Faustina, a simple Polish nun who is now a saint,” said Mr. Kondrat, whose previous films include “Two Crowns,” dedicated to the life of St. Maximilian Kolbe.

Filmed in English, “Love and Mercy: Faustina” dramatizes key moments in St. Faustina’s life and the difficulties and triumphs that accompanied the spread of the message following her death in 1938.

One day this poor, faithful Polish farm girl with little formal education has her life irreversibly upturned when Jesus appears to her in a vision. Jesus commissions her to proclaim the truth of His mercy in order to prepare the world for His final coming.

Featured scenes include her call from Jesus to enter the convent; her relationship with Fr. Michael Sopocko, the priest sent by Christ to help her carry out her mission; the often frustrating process of creating the Divine Mercy Image, as Jesus requested; her and Fr. Sopocko’s trust in Christ amidst the many spiritual trials; and the handing off of key Divine Mercy documents to a Marian priest, Fr. Joseph Jarzebowski, MIC, who escaped to America to fulfill his promise to promote Divine Mercy.

Interviews with present-day scholars and promoters of her message are interspersed among the dramatic portrayals.

The film breaks new ground with discoveries of original writings from now-Blessed Sopocko.

The film also delves into the scientific research that shows the identical features of Christ in the Divine Mercy Image to the facial features and figure immortalized on the Shroud of Turin.

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“Children, do not regard any situation as hopeless. That is a fear Satan wants to place in your hearts. Any discouragement – big or little – is from evil forces that want to discount the actions of grace in your lives. Be aware of the source of your discouragement and do not succumb to any measure of it.”

“Knowing this, be encouraged to know that any soul can be converted. Any situation can be reversed and overcome. The power of grace is incomprehensible in human terms. By merit of My Divine Will, I can alter circumstances – even work the miraculous. I am God.”

“Therefore, do not place human limitations on My Power. Neither should you refuse to accept My decisions in your life. Every sacrifice – offered with love – is worthy of changing hearts, protecting those in danger, revealing evil, and bringing victory out of defeat. The most important thing to remember, is My Will balances all things out to bring souls to their salvation.”

Read Psalm 4:5+

Offer right sacrifices, and put your trust in the LORD.

Monthly Message to All People and Every Nation

Jesus and Blessed Mother are here with Their Hearts exposed. They nod Their Heads, greeting everyone here in the room. Blessed Mother says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

Jesus says:

“I am your Jesus, born Incarnate.”

Jesus:

“Today, as always, I come to speak to My Remnant Faithful. The heart of the world is in turmoil, spurned and fed by aggressive self-love. I need My army of victim souls–those who choose Divine Victimhood with loving hearts–to appease My Most Wounded Heart in this hour of distress, which weighs the world down in sin and error.”

“So, today, the Father wills I come to you with this important revelation. While it is true that once past, the present moment is gone forever; it is also true that all humanity lives in the Eternal Now, for there is no time or space in eternity. Therefore, living in the present in the Eternal Now, you can give to Me all that you suffered in the past as redemptive grace for souls who travel the road to perdition. There are just two conditions. You must have been in a state of grace when you suffered the particular cross you now desire to give Me, and you must have suffered it with love.”

“This means every insult, every illness–even as an infant, if you were baptized at the time–every inconvenience, every embarrassment can now be given to Me as a gift! This increases and strengthens the arsenal of weapons I will use against evil in the world. All you need do is say, ‘Jesus, I give to You with love, all my past crosses.’ Then I will take even the smallest crosses, even the ones you do not remember, and use them to save souls. It is a great victory in the war against evil that I am able to tell you this today.”

“There are certain conditions which weaken your offering to Me of past crosses. One would be if the soul is not in a state of grace at the moment he offers to Me all past suffering. Another would be if he is assailed with doubts about the Message itself. But even these conditions which weaken the offering will not negate completely the total act of consecrating past crosses to Me. Instead, I will inspire the soul to be properly disposed, and to offer these past crosses to Me again.”

“You must understand what a great grace this is that I give to the world today.”

(He has a quiver of arrows over His Shoulder, and it seems the tips are flames.)

“With this arsenal I can reach the hearts of errant leaders and weaken their aggressive nature. You who offer Me these past crosses are helping Me to close the abyss between Heaven and earth, and to restore harmony between the Eternal Divine Will of My Father and man’s free will.”

“The only thing you lose forever in the present moment is that which is not loving. The only thing which you save in the Eternal Now is all that you think, say and do in Holy Love. Holy and Divine Love are eternal.”

“As more and more souls relinquish to Me all their past crosses–great and small–I am opening wide the First Chamber of Our United Hearts, the Heart of My Mother, which is Holy Love.”

“As more and more souls turn to Me by merit of the powerful force of this offering of past crosses, Satan’s attacks upon this Mission of Our United Hearts will be more easily discerned and readily thwarted. Therefore, understand that the more who offer to Me their past crosses in this way, the weaker Satan becomes. It is necessary that you comprehend this and with dispatch, propagate this Message. Many souls, many vocations, many marriages will be saved in this way.”

“The power of these sacrifices of past crosses from souls around the world will allow Me to stop wars, reveal evil that is nurtured under the cover of darkness, strengthen the Remnant and the Tradition of Faith, and calm erratic forces of nature. Perhaps, then, you see the significance of My words to you today.”

“My brothers and sisters, please understand that when you atone to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, you also appease the Heart of the Divine Father. Thus, by offering Me the crosses in your past life, the circle is complete; the Hour of Mercy extends, and My Justice is delayed by the Will of God.”

Jesus extends His Hands out over the people and says:

“Today We’re extending to you the Blessing of Our United Hearts.”

“My children, come to Me with filial confidence, as a child runs to the secure arms of his father. I desire only your welfare. I do not judge you, if you seek first My Mercy. Mankind has only to fear his lack of trust in My Mercy and My Love.”

“The repentant heart is like a flower opening in the warm spring sun. Every petal is perfect in the beauty I intend for it to be. Its fragrance is the delight of all those who draw near to it. Pay Me the homage of not regretting the past once it has been surrendered to My Mercy.”

“In the world I have sent you My Son as a reminder of My Divine Mercy. Have recourse to this devotion and trust in its efficacy. Please do not regard Me so much as the stern judge, but as the loving Father who calls each soul to repentance. This is My call to every soul and to the heart of the world – repent for the sake of your love of Me. Then trust in My Merciful Love. My Mercy is greater than any sin.”

Read Psalm 13:5-6+

But I have trusted in your merciful love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.

I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me.

“Entire nations are led astray by the spiritually blind. These are the leaders handicapped by the errors inspired by evil. These are the ones who are politically ambitious in your nation* and choose only according to self-will – not My Divine Will. There is much selfishness in politics today.”

“Peace in the world begins and ends with each individual heart. Do not sit back and criticize others if you do not first look into your own heart making certain it is grounded in Holy Love. I charge each soul with the responsibility of making peace within his heart by forgiving all people in his past. Think good thoughts about each other. Recognize any negative attitude and try to resolve it before it destroys your peace of heart.”

St. Thomas Aquinas says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“I have come at your behest to explain further the inner workings of the Divine Will. God’s Permitting Will allows man his free will choices. God’s Providing Will interweaves these choices and the consequences of the free will choices with His Divine Will. Only God the Father sees how every event–every choice, be it good or evil–plays together with His Permitting Will for the welfare of all mankind.”

“The heart that strives to embrace Holy Love in every present moment will make good choices in thought, word and deed–choices that most resemble God’s Divine Will. In this light, I wish to help you to see that what you hold in your heart concerning another can affect the relationship of that soul with God. If you are unforgiving, then you are surrounding that person with thoughts of anger. This makes it more difficult for him to turn to Divine Mercy. The same feelings of anger born of unforgiveness present an obstacle between your soul and the Heart of God.”

“Make these things known.”

Hello, Jesus ever present in the Most Blessed Sacrament. It is good to be here with You, Lord. Thank You for Mass and Holy Communion, Jesus. Thank You for our pastor and for all in our parish family. Jesus, please reunite all who have left the Faith and all who are separated from the true Faith. Jesus, please bring all of those who are in my family back to the Church. Thank You for loving me, Lord. Thank You for the gift of faith and for everything in my life, Lord. All good things come from You and Your Holy, Divine Will. Jesus, please heal (name withheld). Help him to be able to remain independent. Please heal (names withheld) and all who are ill. Thank You for my husband’s good health, Lord. Praise You and thank You for the many blessings You give us, Your children. Jesus, please help the priest who is being accused. Help him, Jesus in his hour of need. Jesus, heal the one who is victim. Heal all emotional and spiritual wounds, Lord. Walk beside the person who is in need and bring Your deep healing love to the heart that is wounded. Jesus, please protect our holy priests. Keep them safe from all spiritual, emotional and physical harm. Please do this also for my children and grandchildren, Lord. I love You, Jesus. Help me to love You more. I trust You, Lord. Help me to trust You more.

“My child, I love you. I love you no matter what is going on in your life; no matter how much stress you are experiencing, or how distant you may feel from Me. I am with you and I will never leave you. I pursue My children, so much love have I for them. Do not be concerned about your feelings for they will come and go. I am at work in spite of them. Yes, at times I work so deeply that one feels it in their emotions and at other times I work so deeply that it isn’t felt. What I am saying is that you cannot gauge the level of work I am doing in your soul on your feelings. Therefore, do not be concerned when you feel distant from Me. I am not referring to those who feel distant from God because of sin. That is another matter and one that requires repentance. I am referring to the ebbs and flows one feels in their emotions due to various external circumstances. Always refocus your thoughts and prayers on Me. Think about My life, My birth, My coming into the world. Think about My life growing up in Nazareth with My Most Holy Mother Mary and St. Joseph. Think of the years of My teaching and preaching, healing and forgiving. Think of My betrayal, of the times I stood before My accusers and Herod and Pilate. Think of My passion, My death and My resurrection. Meditate on My life and you will begin to feel closer to Me once again.”

Thank You, Lord! Jesus, help me to know what to do about this evening. Please help me to get everything done or if You want me to go to the parish function to fulfill Your Will, let me know that also. Wherever You prefer I go is fine with me, Lord as long as it is Your Will.

Jesus, please heal (names withheld). Help (name withheld) to get well. Lord, please protect (names withheld) until You bring them back and into the Church. Protect them from all spiritual harm, Lord. Prepare us for our pilgrimage, Jesus.

“My little one, entrust everything to Me. All that is going on in the Church and everything that is going on in the world. Entrust all to Me. I am the answer to every problem in life. Focus on My Kingdom and keeping this alive in your heart. Do not be concerned about anything else. Focus on Me. Bring the love of God to others. The world is in so much need of My love. My Mother is with you. You have noticed the presence of My Mother and your earthly Mother lately. Your family in Heaven prays for you. They are nearer than you can imagine. All is going according to My Will. I am guiding you even when you are unaware. The trust you have in Me, the trust of a child, makes you open to My Will and enables you to be led by Me. In the next week, focus on this, My child; on trusting your Jesus.”

Yes, Lord. Thank You, Lord.

“Do not worry or wonder what this means, My child. Only trust.”

Alright, Jesus, my Lord and my God. I am not capable of the things You ask of me but I know You always provide, Lord and I trust in You. There is nothing else for me, Jesus. You are my all and my everything. My loved ones are from You. My material things come from You. My health, my work, my family—everything is from You. Thank You, Jesus. I am grateful.

“And, My little lamb, I am grateful to you. This is difficult for you to accept, but you are learning to accept it more and more.”

Lord, only because You are so good, kind and loving. You are the perfect gentleman, if I may say so. Your love knows no end and so out of Your benevolence, You even thank us for loving You which is in itself a gift from You!

“Yes, My child and yet it is a choice that you are free to make and so I say, thank you for choosing to love Me, the one who is so unloved.”

My Jesus, it is wrong that You are unloved. You are the essence of love!

“Yes, My child. I am the love. Yet there are so few who love Me. I am longing for My people to love Me. I want all souls to be with Me one day in Heaven. In order for this to occur, people must choose to love Me. It is that simple. It comes down to a choice to love. That is always what it comes down to, My little one. In every decision, think of love. This will help you to decide the correct and best path. Ask Me for clarity and I will help you. Pray about each decision and I will guide you. All will be well. Trust in Me. Trust in My love for you.”

Lord, please give me the grace to love heroically. Help me to love as You love. You loved those who betrayed and rejected You. You are still loving those who do not love You in return. Help me to love You so much that I only see the good in others, no matter what, Lord.

“My child, My child I want all of My children to love their enemies. There are people in the world and in your nation who are difficult to love. They do not see the world the way you do. They do not know the true meaning of love. Love them. Pray for them. Be merciful and kind to them. Especially when they push you away. Especially when they do not understand you. I want My children to show the love of God in everything you do and with everyone you meet, no matter how difficult it seems. My Holy Spirit, the lover of your soul will help you. My Mother will help you. She is the innocent and the pure one. Her heart is Immaculate and all She knows is love. One who loves deeply feels more deeply. She is more sensitive for She is love. Go to Her and ask Her to teach you in Her school of love. She will teach and guide you even closer to Me. And so, My child I know that you must leave soon. These words must be meditated on. They do not seem to be very profound or deep to some people, but to those who have fertile soil in their hearts, these words have life. They come from the living water of life. If these were the only words I had given you, they would be enough because with love, trust and mercy, you have the Gospel. It all comes down to love of God and neighbor, trust in Me and in My Divine Will and to trust in My mercy and show mercy to others. This is the essence of the Gospel, My little lamb. It is simple enough for small children to understand and difficult enough for the hard hearted to believe. For those who are considered wise in the world, My words are a contradiction. To those who have wisdom of Spirit, My words are truth and light. Go and take this light, the light that is Me, to the world. You, My Children of Light, you are My little apostles. You must be carriers of Christ. You must take Me in your hearts to others and then give Me away. There is enough of Me for everyone, My children so do not fear. There is so little time for some souls and you must have a sense of urgency. Be at peace, but also realize I am counting on you to bring Me to others who do not know Me and do not know the love of God. If you do not do this; who will? I love you and I am with you, so you have nothing to fear.”

“Go in peace, My child. Thank you for your sacrifice last week. I noticed and I gave you and (names withheld) graces for your sacrifice of love. The crosses involved seemed great especially for (name withheld). This causes every more merit, so do not be concerned that you were unable to visit Me here, for you visited Me there and truly gave a gift of love. I bless you in My Father’s name, in My name and in the name of My Holy Spirit. Go in peace. Go in My love.”

Amen, Jesus! Alleluia!

Adoration Chapel

Hello, dearest Jesus ever present in the Blessed Sacrament. I love You, praise and adore You, my Lord and my God. Thank You for Holy Mass this morning and for Holy Communion. Jesus, the woman in front of me was crying. Please comfort and console her. I’m glad to see that her husband was attentive and caring. Thank You, Lord. Please bring healing to her heart, Jesus. Lord, I was surprised to hear about (name withheld) husband. I don’t know (nor do I need to know) why he left her or what is going on. Please bring healing to their marriage. Help the confusion and doubt that he is going through to be cleared away so he can see that he should be faithful to his marriage vows. Help (name withheld) to forgive and to be courageous. Protect and care for her, Lord. Jesus, I miss (name withheld) and wish he could return to our church. Help him, Jesus. Heal him. Restore his health so that he is able to fully serve You in his priestly ministry. Lord, bless his suffering and use it for the good of Your Church and Your Kingdom. Help all who are ill, Lord especially those who are spiritually ill and those who do not know Your love. Bring all souls to You, Lord so that one day all will be in Your heavenly kingdom. Jesus, I trust in You. Jesus, I trust in You. Jesus, I trust in You! Lord, pour out Your mercy on the whole world during this 3:00 pm hour of mercy. Bring healing to our nation and the whole world. Reunite our country to You, Jesus so that we are once again One Nation Under God. Help us, Jesus. Heal us, Jesus. Give us graces for conversion, repentance, mercy and love.

“My child, My child, I have oceans of mercy for all, but souls do not avail themselves of My mercy. It is there for everyone who asks. Come to My Merciful Heart, My children. Do not be afraid to approach the throne of mercy. My mercy is for you. It is for each soul. It is for the hardest of sinners. No sin is too evil for Me to forgive; I can do all things. I can do everything. I have the power to forgive sins because I am the Sinless One. I triumphed over sin. Bring all to Me, My children and do not fear. You have nothing to fear. I have the power to forgive and to restore your soul to grace. You may be thinking, ‘Yes, You have the power, Lord but I am too unworthy.’ Nay, I tell you. My mercy is for you. My mercy is for the very worst of all sinners. You, who are the worst have the front seat at My banquet and we will especially celebrate your return to the Family of God. There is enough mercy for all, so do not hold back but come to Me. Come quickly, My child. It is enough for you to say, ‘What must we do, Jesus? What must I do to be restored to grace?’ To which I will reply, go to the priest. You need to hear his fatherly words, confess your sins with a contrite heart, and listen to the words of absolution. This is My Mercy. This is the Sacrament of Mercy. Allow yourselves to be immersed in My Mercy and then receive the Sacrament of Holy Communion, the sacrifice of My love for you. My children, you receive mercy from your Jesus and I ask that you go out into the world and give My mercy to all you meet. Be merciful. Be love. Share My love with others. There is much darkness in the world. There is much evil. Love will prevail. Love triumphs over evil. So, you must bring My love to all you meet. Does this sound repetitious, Children of the Light? If so, ask yourselves why parents must repeat themselves to their children. I have much more to say, more to teach you, but you must have a firm foundation rooted in the Church and the Sacred Scripture. You must have prayer. From these, you are to take My love to the world. This is the essence of all I taught. It is essential. Begin to live the Gospel, My children. Be glad that the Father loves you so, for truly, truly He loves you. Yes! He loves you! This is a personal and an intimate love at the individual level. Reflect on this and rejoice. Return God’s love to Him. Receive His love for you. It is in this receiving and giving of God’s love that you will dwell in the Kingdom. He will bring about His Kingdom on earth as in Heaven when His children receive and give God’s love to others. Be magnanimous, just as God is magnanimous. Freely give His love, as He freely gives His love to each of you. Be forgiving. Forgive quickly and often, My children. Do not hold grudges but forgive instantly. I know many of you have been deeply wounded. Many of you have every reason to be wounded. Many of you have every reason to be angry. Be angry with the sin committed against you, as I am, but have mercy on the one who sinned. Pray for your enemies and pray for loved ones who have hurt you. Often these wounds are the deepest. Give all wounds to Me. Ask for My healing. Ask My Holy Mother Mary to pray for you. Ask Her to pray for the ones who have hurt you. Love heroically, My children. It will be possible with My assistance. Do not be afraid to love and forgive. Fear only unforgiveness and pride. Go far from these, My children, for these things poison the soul. Free yourselves of the poison of unforgiveness and pride. Bring all to My Sacrament of Reconciliation and be reconciled with God and one another. Be holy as I am holy. I have given you the means to do so through the sacramental life of the Church. Draw close to My heart, My beloved children. It is time. Draw close to your Savior. I love you.”

Thank You, sweet Jesus. I love You. So many of Your children love You. Jesus, please purify Your Church quickly. Bring us through these dark days soon, Lord. Help us to heal so we can live in the light of Your love rather than the dark clouds that hover over us like a shroud. Lord, protect all children and young adults from abuse. Renew our strength, console us, heal us and bring about the outpouring of Your Holy Spirit. Renew the face of the earth, Lord.

“My little lamb, you have sensed the somber tone in Heaven for some time. You do not understand this, I know, My child.”

Jesus, I do not understand when all I’ve ever heard and read in Scripture speaks of the joy in Heaven. There are no tears there.

“Yes, My child, it is true. There is fulness of joy in Heaven. The souls in Heaven are filled with joy at being in the presence of God, the angels, their family members and friends. Their joy is complete. Still, they are able to love those on earth. They look joyfully ahead to the time when loved ones will complete their earthly journey and come to Heaven. They are also aware of the perils souls face and they pray earnestly for those on earth. This does not diminish their joy. They have an increased capacity for joy, and also their love has been perfected. One who loves does not rejoice in another’s demise and so they, fully understanding the serious times you are in, pray fervently for souls who stand at the brink of despair and darkness. They pray fervently for their brothers and sisters of Light to fortify you with My grace and the virtues that you will be courageous disciples. This fervor is very serious, My child and this is what you sense. One who is serious and fervent, can also be filled with the joy of the Lord. It does not seem possible to you, for this is not so on earth. In Heaven all is complete. It is different than what you experience on earth, in many ways. It is fullness, completion, and love overflowing. It is beauty, joy and wonder. It is the fullness of understanding one another and the Will of God. Those in Heaven see with spiritual eyes and in this way, they see much more than is possible on earth. At times, I allow souls on earth to have a glimpse of these spiritual senses, but this is only a glimpse at what souls’ gaze upon in Heaven. What is veiled on earth is constantly before the souls in Heaven. Do you understand, My child?”

I understand what You mean, Lord but not in the way I want to because I have not experienced this. It is like reading about a foreign country that I have never visited. There is a limited understanding from what was read, but one who visits the country, stays for years, gets to know the people, the language and customs really and fully understands. Until then, it is simply words on a page and we are left of our own imagination within the boundaries of what Scripture tells us, ‘Eye has not seen, ear has not heard, what God has ready for those who love Him. Spirit of God come give us the mind of Jesus. Teach us the wisdom of love.’

“Yes, My little lamb. This bring us back to the beginning of My message. Love. So, you see, that is the essence. Love, mercy and forgiveness flow out from this love that is the love of God. When you have My love and you give it away to others (all others including those who injure you) you are living out the Gospel and working to bring about God’s Kingdom of Love. One day, My love will fill the earth. All will know and will walk in My love. That will be the Time of the Renewal, My child. Until then, pray for souls, do penance and make sacrifices for them out of love, be mercy, peace, joy and love. Pray more, My children. Lent is a very good time to draw near to My suffering heart as I prepared for My passion. Enter into this time of pray deeply. I am very near.”

Jesus, please heal marriages, heal all who are wounded due to lack of love. Help the children of this generation to know, love and serve You. Jesus, help us in the quest to end abortion and euthanasia. Bring us out of this culture of death and into the culture of life, Your Kingdom. Bless and protect holy priests, Lord and fill them with heroic graces to be shepherds to Your lost sheep. Thank You for Your love and Your guidance, Jesus. Praise You and thank You for our blessings. I love You, Jesus.

“And I love you! I love all of My children and long to be loved in return. My little lamb, I bless you in the name of My Father, in My name and in the name of My Holy Spirit. Go in peace and be love and mercy. Thank you for speaking out for life, for marriage and for teaching others about prayer. I love you and My son (name withheld) and your family very dearly. Do not fear, but have confidence and trust in My love. All will be well.”

Thank You, Jesus. Amen! Alleluia!

Annual Message to Mirjana
March 18, 2019

“My children, As a mother, as the Queen of Peace, I am calling you to accept my Son so that He can grant you peace of soul—that He can grant you that which is just, which is good for you. My children, my Son knows you. He lived the life of man, and at the same time of God: a wondrous life—human flesh, divine Spirit. Therefore, my children, while my Son is looking at you with His eyes of God, He penetrates into your hearts. His tender, warm eyes are looking for Himself in your heart. My children, can He find Himself ? Accept Him, and then the moments of pain and suffering will become moments of tenderness. Accept Him, and you will have peace in your soul—you will spread it to all those around you—and this is what you now need the most. Heed me, my children. Pray for the shepherds, for those whose hands my Son has blessed. Thank you.”

When the idea of making a movie about Garabandal first came up, it was truly crazy. But that craziness has already gathered more than 185,000 movie goers and has already premiered in the United States, Spain, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Ecuador, Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Curacao and the Dominican Republic. In Spain, the manager of one of the movie theaters told us: “What is it about this movie? We have never had so many advance sales in our lives, not even for Star Wars.”

In Colombia it was the most viewed Catholic film ever. In Puerto Rico, the average viewer per one million inhabitants was close to 3,000 persons. We thank God for all of this. But we know that the merit has not been ours. The lure, the magnet is Her, Our Blessed Mother. The attraction involves the events that occurred in San Sebastián de Garabandal 50 years ago and its two public messages, and to a lesser degree the manifestation of extraordinary signs witnessed at Garabandal by thousands of witnesses.

The messages pointed to the heart of the great crisis that the Church is presently undergoing: “Many cardinals, many bishops and many priests are on the road to perdition and taking many souls with them.” But at we start Lent this week, Garabandal Only God Knows brings very precise advice to lead us to conversion and salvation.

May Our Blessed Mother bless you.

God the Father – “Each life faces a series of challenges – a series of crosses – Trust that I will never allow any cross in your life which is too great for you”

Holy Love Ministry
http://www.holylove.org

March 11, 2019

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“Children, as you prepare your hearts for My coming to you on Easter,* understand that My Victory was in My Son’s Cross. Do not disdain the crosses in your own lives. See them as a steppingstone to victory.”

“Each life faces a series of challenges – a series of crosses. You are never far from victory when you humbly accept your crosses. Trust is the key to accepting any cross. Trust that I will never allow any cross in your life which is too great for you. In your acceptance of the cross is your surrender. Every cross is designed by Me to bring you closer to Me. When the soul refuses to accept his cross, he ties My Hands and I cannot help him to carry it. When he accepts his cross out of love for Me, I am assisting him in small ways and in big ways.”

“All through your lives, I am calling you to trust in Me. Together, we can walk the path of your destiny – your salvation. Look for the grace in every situation. Grace is always attendant to every cross.”

* He’ll come to every heart that’s open.

Read Hebrews 2:10+

For it was fitting that he, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through suffering.

God the Father – “My children, allow Me to be your Father, to protect you, to guide you and to provide for you”

Holy Love Ministry

February 19, 2019

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“My children, allow Me to be your Father, to protect you, to guide you and to provide for you. If you do not accept Me and love Me as your Father, you are vulnerable to every sort of spirit in the world. Satan can easily lie to you and pull you from the path of salvation. Your heart, if it is not with Me, it is against Me. Your heart is where your love is. If you love money, power, the goods of the world or anything above Me, Satan has his hold on you.”

“Use every gift I have given you in Holy Love. Use all your talents to strengthen My Kingdom on earth. Build up the Kingdom of My Divine Will in the world by your ‘yes’ to Holy Love. One person’s ‘yes’ may sway entire communities and influence whole nations. I store up your ‘yes’ to Holy Love and use all of them combined as ammunition against the wiles of Satan in the world.”

“Be united. Draw apart from those dedicated to the allurements of the world. Be part of My arsenal which I can depend upon. Stand together as a sign of My Divine Will.”

Read Galatians 5:13-15+

For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another. For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another.

Read Ephesians 2:19-22+

So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure is joined together and grows into a holy temple in the Lord; in whom you also are built into it for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

The Best Free Catholic Bible Studies Available Online

Dearly Beloved Followers,

In this post, I am going to present to you the three best Catholic Bible Studies available online–and they are ALL free to use. My hope is that they will appeal to those who are seeking God in the Catholic faith, as well as lukewarm Catholics and Catholics who are hungry to know more about Sacred Scripture. So, if you have ever wanted to learn authentic Bible Studies from a Catholic perspective, these are the ones that you should delve into. And trust me, if you do them all, you will become a Bible expert!

The first one is:

Agape Catholic Bible Study
http://www.agapebiblestudy.com/Bible_Studies_Menu.php

The Agape Catholic Bible Study can be completed on your own or as a group study. Many of the books of the Bible have their own lessons so Agape Bible Study is extensive and will take quite awhile to complete if you desire to do them all. However, the best part of the Agape Catholic Bible Study is that using Google Translate, it is available in over 90 languages(!). So, if you want to learn more about the Catholic Bible in Arabic, Chinese, or Spanish, here it is for you! All FREE!

The second Bible study that I want to recommend is:

St. Paul Center – Online Studies
https://stpaulcenter.com/category/online-studies-overviews/

St. Paul Center is founded by Catholic theologian, Dr. Scott Hahn, so if you are familiar with Dr. Hahn’s work, you will know that these Bible studies are of excellent quality. Online Studies at St. Paul Center can be completed on your own or as a group study. You only need the Bible to complete the studies, although they do recommend Dr. Hahn’s book for a few of them for further research. I love that there is a Bible Study on the Blessed Virgin Mary and a Bible study for the Holy Mass. Unfortunately, though, these studies are only available in English.  I also recommend signing up for Dr. Hahn’s weekly Sunday Mass commentary by email (it is free).

And the last Bible study that I recommend is:

The Understanding the Scriptures Podcast
https://catholicboard.com/utspodcast/introduction

This Bible study consists of 30 podcasts between 72 to 80 minutes each (English only) and are based on Dr. Scott Hahn’s textbook, “Understanding the Scriptures”–although you do not need to purchase the book. The audio study follows the Bible from Genesis to Revelation and is great for those who learn best from listening and not simply from reading. I recommend it especially for those who have long commutes to work and home and are looking for something better than the radio. Enjoy!

God bless!

Is there a God? For those seeking God, atheists, and lukewarm Catholics

COMMENT (By a soul):
Since I began this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove, in April 2015, I have built up quite a few resources and hyperlinks to help people who are searching for answers in their life journey. Primarily, for those who are seeking God and wondering if He really exists.

For a few years of my life, I used to be an atheist. I became an atheist in junior high school when I was exposed to the theory of evolution and due to lack of education in Catholicism–the faith that I was baptized into as an infant–I fell away very easily. However, being an atheist made me very depressed. Why? Because at the end of the existential road is nihilism and accepting that life is meaningless and pointless made me harbor suicidal thoughts. Really, it got quite hard to get out of the bed each morning and to desire to do anything productive, like attend college, have a career, marry, raise a family, etc.

So, one day, when I was 17 years old, I literally said to myself, either I believe there is a God, or I kill myself because there is no purpose for my existence. I had no joy in my life and always being a deep thinker my whole life, thinking that there was no purpose for my existence was that troubling for me.

So, then I told myself that I am going to start believing in God, because I have to believe that there is some purpose in my life, otherwise, I cannot exist anymore. I told myself that if there is a God, then I have to believe that He would not hide Himself from us, because I cannot accept that He would create us and then simply disappear without telling us about Himself. So, I said to myself, one of the religions in the world must be real, but if I do not find out which one, I will become Catholic by the age of 25 for lack of anything better. Because my parents are Catholic and they are happy together and I just want to be happy in life again.

And so, that began the great searching period in my life for God. I dappled in Eastern religions and New Age for awhile, but I was never quite satisfied with the logical foundations of these various religions. Then, as people who have read my conversion story know, in 2001, I broke my leg and during surgery, I encountered God in what was very similar to a near-death experience, etc.

My Conversion Story
https://myconversionstory.org/

Now, that supernatural experience should have brought me home immediately to the Catholic Church, but due to various circumstances, it was not until late December 2002, that I discovered the Catholic faith of my infant baptism. I was 3 months shy of my 25th birthday, because–surprise, surprise–God remembers promises like the one I made to myself at age 17. And yes, like so many Catholic conversion stories, it was the Blessed Mother who ultimately brought me back to the Catholic Church and I found Jesus. I am so eternally grateful.

And so, I know what it is like to be an atheist, an agnostic, and to be searching for God. So, in this blog post, I want to provide help for those who are struggling with those questions in their life, as well as help lukewarm Catholics. For me, I literally “read” myself back into Christianity. So, I want to share the books that helped me to understand Christianity, and in particular, Catholicism. These are good, hearty, well-researched, easy to read books–not some “fluffy” stuff that people make up a lot on the internet to support their arguments.

Firstly, I recommend these three books:

This is the Faith: A Complete Explanation of the Catholic Faith by Canon Francis Ripley

Theology and Sanity by Frank Sheed

A Father Who Keeps His Promises: God’s Covenant Love in Scripture by Scott Hahn

The reason that I recommend these three books is because even if you want to remain an atheist, it is important that you know about what Christianity really teaches and not by reading all the “fluff” that can exist on the internet. At least be informed about what you are truly rejecting. “This is the Faith” is the finest book that I know that teaches about the beliefs of Catholicism. “Theology and Sanity” is the finest book that I know to teach a layman the beauty, the logic and rationale behind Christianity. The Christian God is one of logic, order, and reason. And “A Father Who Keeps His Promises” is the finest book I know on how to read the Holy Bible. It was not until I read that book that I finally figured out how the Old and New Testaments are reconciled together.

Now, after reading those books, if you want to get serious about understanding Catholicism and science, then I recommend the three books on this blog page.  The first book is about evolution and the Great Flood; the second book is about how rare life is in the universe by two agnostic scientists; and the third is the Catholic theology for the existence of extraterrestrials (aliens).

I also recommend watching this scientific documentary about the universe:

Now, I will say that I wish priests at the pulpit in Holy Mass spoke more about the supernatural. Many Catholics are starving for this information, because talking about God and how He is literally speaking to us today and that miracles really happen, would wake up people in the pews and bring people back to the Catholic Church. But, many homilies preached are boring and sterile. I have a blog post that I did in 2016 that I want to re-share with everyone:

Do You Believe in Miracles? A Book List
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/2016/04/23/do-you-believe-in-miracles-a-book-list/

Reading about miracles excites people in their faith. Knowing that God continues to help people even today, is exciting to know. Seriously, if priests were to read these books and just for one year, preach about one miracle at every Sunday Mass, how many people would become animated each week. People would joyfully wonder to themselves, hmm, I wonder what miracle story dear Father is going to share with us today! Such stories stick in the minds of people and demonstrate God’s Great Love for us and the power of prayer.

Today, people feel no need to pray because they think that God does not listen to them and nothing will happen. But, if people knew that God really cares about them and He is simply waiting for them to ask Him and share their needs in prayer, this would make a noticeable change in the life of many parishes. I want to offer a challenge to my Catholic readers. Firstly, read all the miracle books on the list that I provided, then give the books to your parish priest and ask him to preach on a miracle at every Holy Mass for a year. That way, people can learn of God’s Love and care for them and the necessity of prayer to God.

For example, many people know that St. Patrick was a great saint of Ireland, but not many know why. It was because St. Patrick performed a resurrection miracle by the power of God. St. Patrick resurrected the drowned daughter and son of the pagan king, which then led to the entire pagan island converting to Catholicism. One of the books that I recommend recounts 400 resurrection miracles performed by the Saints. Priests could simply preach on the power of the Resurrection for a year and that would animate many people in the pews.

Now, let’s say that you are an atheist and you do not believe in miracles. Well, I am going to present to you in the remainder of this blog post, several miracles that are hard for an atheist to refute if he really delves into researching the history of them. Here are the miracles for you to consider.

Firstly, there are over 200 bodies of different Saints in the Catholic Church that are incorruptible. Incorruptible means that they have not decayed from natural causes.

On this blog page, are the “Top Ten” of such miracles of the Saints in the Catholic Church, which includes pretty good photos. One Saint is Blessed Imelda Lambertini, who died in 1333, and I would say that her body is remarkably preserved for being almost 700 years old! Another is Saint Silvan who died circa 350 and he looks great for being over 1600 years old!

Also, here is the blog post that I made for Pope John Paul II. He died on April 2, 2005 and when his body was exhumed in late April 2011 for his canonization, he was found incorruptible!

Finally, here is an outside link that has extensive information on the miracle of incorruptibility uniquely found only in the Catholic Church along with photos.

The Incorruptibles
https://saintscatholic.blogspot.com/p/incorrupt.html

Alright, perhaps, the incorruptible bodies are not enough to sway you on the Catholic faith. Well, how about the tilma of Our Lady of Guadalupe? The miraculous Image of the Blessed Virgin Mary was imprinted on a poor-quality cactus-cloth that should have deteriorated after 20 years. But, the cloth is almost 500 years old!

Now, maybe you are still not convinced. Well, how about the many miraculous events contributed to Our Lady of Fatima?

Firstly, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to three shepherd children in Fatima, Portugal, in 1917, and gave several important prophecies. She accurately predicted that Russia would be in the ascendancy and would spread its errors around the world. This was 6 months BEFORE the Bolshevik revolution. At the time, Russia was under the reign of the czar and many of its people–peasants were starving, etc. Russia was technologically-backwards and no threat to the world. Also, Our Lady of Fatima accurately predicted the name of the pope who would reign during World War II if God’s conditions for peace were not met.  In addition, the Blessed Mother prophesied a strange and unknown light would appear in the sky signaling the next world war. This truly happened during the night of January 25, 1938 when a crimson (blood-red) light was seen all over Europe and documented in the media.

Secondly, on the last day of the apparitions, October 13, 1917, a spectacular Miracle of the Sun was performed before 70,000 people. It was written up in all the secular newspapers at the time in Portugal, and was even mentioned abroad in the New York Post, etc. It even converted all the atheists that day who witnessed it.

Thirdly, there is the miracle of the Catholic Jesuits who miraculously survived the nuclear bomb of Hiroshima, along with their monastery intact, at the end of World War II. They were examined over 200 times by the U.S., German, and Japanese governments, and lived long, healthy lives with no evidence of any radiation in their bodies. They contributed their survival to their living the messages of Our Lady of Fatima.  Here is a blog post with videos and more information:

Alright, maybe you need more convincing… How about Our Lady of Zeitoun, Egypt? Over 40 million people–including Jews, Christians, and Muslims, saw luminous apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary over the course of three years above a Coptic church at night during the 1960s. There are many videos of this event taking place in the Muslim world.

Alright, perhaps, you desire a more “current” miracle to be convinced that God exists and especially, that we are in the End Times. Well, how about a live video clip of the Fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse? It was first shown on EuroNews, then picked up by MSN News and CNN. Millions of people saw a green spirit (ghost) on live video, although the news reporters did not realize what they were broadcasting when it happened. Here is a blog post along with the video and some related messages from Heaven.

A Warning Of Things To Come – Fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse (Radical Islam) – Book of Revelation, Chapter 6, Verses 7-8

I know that as an atheist, it is hard to believe that God is real, because there is so much such “intellectualism” in the world that tries to prove otherwise. So, I will end with this video clip that is also challenging to refute. It is about the odds of the universe coming together by chance. God bless!

New Webpage: List Of All PDF Document Downloads On MaryRefugeOfHolyLove

Dear Beloved Followers,

Thanks to a suggestion by blog follower “J”, I created a new webpage with all the PDF document downloads found on this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove. So, if there is a particular writing of mine that you want to save for the future, or collection of heavenly messages that you are interested in, they can be found on this new webpage.

List Of All PDF Document Downloads On MaryRefugeOfHolyLove
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/list-of-all-pdf-document-downloads-on-maryrefugeofholylove/

I am actually very happy that I completed this task, as it will enable me to “clean up” some of my other current webpages in preparation for the Great Warning (Illumination of Conscience) with more text information and less links. Also, it became even more clear to me my own mission before God, as I realized more profoundly a few things.

Firstly, I realized even more how vast and comprehensive Our Lady’s Plans are for this End Times and saving the entire world. There are so many people involved. The planning and organizing by Heaven for all these various helpers and chosen messengers on earth have been such a massive undertaking–perhaps, spanning the centuries, to bring about the circumstances and all the various people who would contribute a crucial part in Our Lady’s Plans.

As I have written before, it is important not to compare different prophecies between different chosen messengers, because each one has a different role and mission given to them by Heaven. This is because as the Holy Bible counsels, prophecy is imperfect. Instead, it is critical to use one’s discernment of spirits to test the messages primarily by looking at teachings and lessons that are given and whether they are compatible with the Catholic faith, etc. And yet, I have realized over time that my own role–my own mission–has involved reconciling the many heavenly messages given today to various chosen souls. This I have done in my various writings and commentaries which many of you have read.

I think that this has been because there has to be a coming together of all the various parts to make a complete whole in Our Lady’s Plans in this End Times. Otherwise, there would be all these fragmented parts all over the place and no one would understand what needs to take place to bring about peace in the world at the time of the Great Warning. So someone or something has to tie everything together, which has been my mission as I have discerned it.

I do not consider myself to be any particularly special person to have this mission. To be honest, although I write about my understanding of various heavenly messages from different chosen souls, I do not consider myself to be an expert in any particular body of messages. It is actually my understanding that every person is vital to the Plans of Our Lady–no one person is more important than another as all are needed for the success of Our Lady’s Plans.

For example, many people are experts in a particular area of the Catholic faith. We have people that are experts in Fatima only, or Garabandal only, or Medjugorje only, etc. We also have many people that are experts in teaching the Catholic faith–such as the many apologists (many of them converted Protestants acting as a “bridge” to our separated Christian brothers and sisters), many catechists, and lay apostolates, etc. We also have the experts in the ways of the Holy Spirit such as the Catholic charismatics and those who are familiar with the workings of the demonic and deliverance ministries, etc. All of these people are vitally important to Our Lady’s Plans for their knowledge in their area of expertise.

Shockingly, I, “a soul,” do not know everything. Okay, I am smiling here, but I am also being quite serious. I just think that when the Great Warning happens, everyone who knows anything about the Catholic faith will be mobilized and suddenly, Our Lady’s Army will appear. Everyone in all their own areas of expertise will be needed to educate and instruct the masses of people who will be needing help in the aftermath. Everyone will want to know about Fatima, Garabandal, and Medjugorje, as well as generally, about Marian apparitions, such as Holy Love Ministries, etc. Everyone will be hungering about the Catholic faith as many people will be baptized then, and will want to know how they can become a true child of God and grow in personal holiness.

And certainly, as many people will possibly have a very bad, even “hellish,” experience during the Great Warning, these people will want to know about spiritual warfare and how they can save their souls from satan.

So, everyone is important and every person is needed with the knowledge and talents that God has given them. You, my beloved followers, are very important to Our Lady’s Plans. Not only are you the exceptional prayer warriors so needed by Our Lady–helping the holy angels in their supernatural battles, but your roles are critical to the conversions of others in your own “sphere of influence.” Truly, there are some people in your lives who will only be converted and saved by you and your work and no one else. You are the “critical link” between them and God.

So, please know, even though I write and I have this blog for Our Lady, you are just as important as me, in spreading God’s Love to others and saving souls. Our Lord loves you and everything that you do for Him, especially, to help others. So, I hope that this writing helps you to recognize how special and dear you are to God and Our Lady and to appreciate your own talents and gifts and what you can offer to others, especially, when the Great Warning happens.

Now, that being said, the new webpage containing all the PDF downloads on this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove, is a resource for you to convert others, which I will regularly maintain. It has all my commentaries about understanding the Divine Plan, as well as all the heavenly messages that people will want to read in the aftermath of the Great Warning, etc. Of special note, I also have downloads available for the Baltimore Catechism–which is the simplest catechism available for teaching the Catholic faith to youths and adults, as well as the official Catholic Catechism under Pope John Paul II, and a copy of the Holy Bible (Doauy-Rheims version), which are nice to have.

Also, there are some outside links with PDF downloads that people might want to consider having, especially, to help teach others the Catholic faith. For example, I have links to all the PDF materials available at Holy Love Ministries, etc. All of these downloads are important to have because there will be coming a time–I feel–when the internet will no longer be available. We also know that at the time of the reign of the antichrist that we should no longer look at anything online, because it will be demonically controlled.

So, if there is anything that you would like to save for the future that is available online, I suggest that you start collecting it now to avoid the rush that will happen once the Great Warning happens. God is guaranteeing 40 days of peace in the aftermath, but after that, it all depends on free will whether good or evil will prevail. In the Book of Truth (Maria Divine Mercy), God has promised the salvation of at least 5 billion people, but that leaves 2 billion left unaccounted for who could potentially cause problems for the whole of mankind. So, if you value anything online, now is the time to collect it.

God bless,
I love you.

God the Father – “Allow Me to make your hearts into a thing of beauty which brightens the world around you”

Holy Love Ministry
http://www.holylove.org

February 2, 2019

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“Children, another season is about to open upon earth. As you stand on the threshold of spring, you anticipate the awakening of new life in the natural world. In the spiritual world I continue to send new life into souls through these Messages.* So many souls reject what I give. Much growth is occurring underground in nature. I wish I could say much spiritual growth is occurring in hearts. In the matter of a few months, the beauty of nature will burgeon forth as even now it is being prepared by My Hand. I attempt through these Messages to prepare hearts for My Son’s Second Coming.”

“I wish to dress all of My children in the beauty of a fervent faith – a faith eager to be shown to the world. A faith which gives light where there has been darkness – life where there has been no life. I am able to prepare beauty in nature for the coming spring season as nature is not controlled by free will. In man’s heart, however, free will determines life through the Holy Spirit or death by man’s free-will choices.”

“All your temptations are weeds which block your spiritual growth. One by one they must be eradicated. Allow Me to make your hearts into a thing of beauty which brightens the world around you. Then, those whom you come in contact with will appreciate your spiritual growth and admire the beauty of your heart.”

* The Messages of Holy and Divine Love at Maranatha Spring and Shrine.

Read Galatians 6:7-10+

Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.
