Gospa Medjugorje, Bible, & Pope good advice


today, 9/20/20, during these scary times of worldwide pandemic coronavirus and our responses to or for each other, 

don't worry. 

***  We can have peace. *** 

1) Moses' advice in Exodus 20:20 in the Bible, 

 2) Gospa's encouragement in Medjugorje... 

 3) a quote from Pope Francis. 

Let's approach others, all God's children, with love, forgiveness, mercy, respect.

 (EN) #Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning."  (HR) Ne bojte se, reče Mojsije narodu. "Bog je došao da vas samo iskuša; da strah pred njim ostane s vama te da ne griješite."   



 photograph: Mir-Peace pilgrimage group, as every year, was on Apparition Hill in 2017, praying the rosary near where Gospa the Queen of Peace came in apparitions to the visionaries starting in 1981.

(ENGLISH) #Medjugorje message by #Gospa Our Lady, the Blessed Virgin Mary, Medjugorje, August 22, 1985 
"... God wants to send you trials which you can overcome by prayer. God is testing you.through daily chores/burdens. Now pray to peacefully withstand every trial. From everything through which God tests you come out more open to God and approach Him with love." 

(HRVATSKI) Gospina poruka, 22. kolovoz 1985. 
"... Bog vam želi poslati kušnje koje molitvom možete pobijediti. Bog vas kuša kroz svakodnevne radove. Sada molite da nadi|ete mirno svaku kušnju. Iz svega kroz što vas Bog kuša izlazite otvoreniji Bogu i pristupajte Bogu s ljubavlju. " 

According to #Pope Francis, “The fear of the Lord, the gift of the Holy Spirit, doesn’t mean being afraid of God, since we know that God is our Father that always loves and forgives us,...[It] is no servile fear, but rather a joyful awareness of God’s grandeur and a grateful realization that only in Him do our hearts find true peace.”

read the New Testament Scriptures - Gospa: PRAY

"Pray as much as you can; pray however you can, 

but pray more always. ...

...I know that many do not understand 

because they think only of living for their work." 

~ Gospa, Our Lady, 1984, Medjugorje.  

Why does the Blessed Virgin Mary keep repeating herself? "PRAY, pray, pray!" She often asks us to fast, pray the rosary. to read the Bible. to think of Jesus Christ's love and sacrifice, how He lived his life on earth in the New Testament, the Gospel... ever since she started appearing to the visionaries in 1981... in #Medjugorje.

(EN) “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.”

~ New Testament, 2 Timothy 3:16  
(HR) Druga poslanica Timoteju 3:16 
16 Jer cijelo je Sveto pismo od Boga nadahnuto i korisno za poučavanje, za popravljanje i odgajanje u pravednosti.

  Here are a few of Gospa's quotes during her apparitions:  
(EN) Gospa's Medjugorje message, April 25, 2013 (HR) Gospina poruka, 25. travanj 2013.
(ENGLISH) "Dear children! Pray, pray, keep praying until your heart opens in faith as a flower opens to the warm rays of the sun. This is a time of grace which God gives you through my presence but you are far from my heart, therefore, I call you to personal conversion and to family prayer. May Sacred Scripture always be an incentive for you. I bless you all with my motherly blessing. Thank you for having responded to my call."
(HRVATSKI)
 “Draga djeco! Molite, molite, samo molite dok se vaše srce otvori u vjeru kao cvijet koji se otvara toplim zrakama sunca. Ovo je vrijeme milosti koje vam Bog daje po mojoj prisutnosti a vi ste daleko od mog srca, zato vas pozivam na osobno obraćenje i obiteljsku molitvu. Neka vam Sveto pismo uvijek bude poticaj. Sve vas blagoslivljem mojim majčinskim blagoslovom. Hvala vam što ste se odazvali mome pozivu. ”

"Faith will not know how to be alive without prayer. Pray more." 1981
"Pray as much as you can; pray however you can, but pray more always. ...I know that many do not understand because they think only of living for their work." 1984
"Dear children! Today I call you to pray in a special way that you offer up sacrifices & good deeds for peace in the world. " "Let prayer be life for you."
"God is great, and His love for every creature is great. Therefore, pray to be able to understand the love and goodness of God." 1990's

pray and open heart like flowers to the warmth of sun

May our hearts open in faith today, and more & more everyday!  Pray, read & learn from the Gospel. Our Lady, the Blessed Virgin Mary has been asking this of us for 39 years in Medjugorje. She loves each of us and perseveres in teaching us how to get closer to our Father, through His mercy and graces.  Then we can convert to faith and trust in Him better and better. 

Hvala Bogu! Thank God!

Prepare the way of the Lord!

ADVENT CHRISTMAS --  Open your heart

He will give Himself to you in the Child who is joy and peace this Christmas ... Let's prepare our hearts for the Light & love & true happiness from the Son God, so we can shine that light throughout the entire world. May God's Will be done! and may we help every soul to see!

Apparition Hill, where the Blessed Virgin Mary, known in #Medjugorje as #Gospa, Our Lady Queen of Peace first started appearing to the visionaries in 1981... After all these decades, the rough path and rugged rocks have become more level by the many thousands of pilgrims worldwide, some of whom have traveled there with our Mir-PEACE pilgrimages.This Advent, let's remember what she keeps reminding us, and in the Bible reading below, "prepare the way for the Lord":

(EN) "...The world is at war because hearts are full of hatred and jealousy. In the eyes, little children, peacelessness is seen because you have not permitted Jesus to be born in your lives. Seek Him, pray, and He will give Himself to you in the Child who is joy and peace..."
~part of Medjugorje message November 25, 2019. (HR) "...

Bible: Isaiah 40:3-5 A voice of one calling: “In the wilderness prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain.And the glory of the Lord will be revealed, and all people will see it together.For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”

BE A LIGHT (Mir-Peace spiritual pilgrimage group motto)

Happy Father's Day! Love is patient...

  Love is patient, love is kind... 
May your life, by humble love, show the truth, with patience and boundless love. 

All of it is the world's best advice! :-) 
and Heaven-sent.


 Medjugorje message: ".. I call you to a humble devotion. Your hearts need to be just. May your crosses be your means in the battle against the sins of the present time. May your tools be patience and boundless love, a love that knows to wait and which will make you capable of recognizing God's signs, that your life, by humble love, may show the truth to all those who seek it in the darkness of lies. My children, my apostles, help me to open the paths to my Son (Jesus Christ)... 
~Gospa, the Blessed Virgin Mary in Medjugorje,  October 2, 2010. 

  New Testament verse: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 
8 Love never fails...
~Corinthians

4 BASIC ELEMENTS TO SURVIVE - SCIENCE & BIBLE


Science says we need four basic elements to survive: 
1) Water, 2) Air, 3) Food and 4) Light. 

Look at what the Bible shows us 
about 
Jesus in the New Testament:

1) I am the living water,
2) I am the breath of life,
3) I am the bread of life,
4) I am the light of the world.

photograph: Mir-Peace pilgrimage group that travels a few times every year to Medjugorje, Bosnia Hercegovina, Europe usually via coastal Croatian cities Split or Dubrovnik, Croatia, as we climbed up Krizevac in prayer. We reached the worldwide well-known cross at the summit of that Cross Mountain.  

Glorious view! Spiritual experience! Thank God for sending us His Son, and for allowing Our Lady the Blessed Virgin Mary stay with us so long is this way on earth to help guide our souls closer to our Father through getting to understand better the love and sacrifices of Jesus Christ.

(EN) On the evening of that first day of the week,
when the doors were locked, where the disciples were,

for fear of the Jews,
Jesus came and stood in their midst
and said to them, "Peace be with you."
When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side.
The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you.
As the Father has sent me, so I send you."
And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them,
"Receive the Holy Spirit.
Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them,
and whose sins you retain are retained."

(HR) 19 Te su se večeri prvoga dana u tjednu učenici sastali iza zaključanih vrata zbog straha od židovskih vođa kad odjednom među njih stane Isus. Pozdravi ih: 'Mir vama!'
20 Kad im je to rekao, pokaže im svoje ruke i bok. Učenici se razvesele kad ugledaju svojega Gospodina.
21 Isus im opet reče: 'Mir vama! Kao što je mene poslao Otac, tako i ja šaljem vas.'
22 Zatim dahne u njih i reče: 'Primite Svetoga Duha!
23 Kojima oprostite grijehe, oprošteni su im. Kojima ne oprostite grijehe, nisu im oprošteni.'
