Gospa: YOU ARE loved

"If you knew how much I love you, you would cry with joy." (EN)

" Kada biste znali koliko vas volim plakali biste od sreće. ” 

 (HR)

~~ Gospa, Our Lady Queen of Peace, the Blessed Mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, in Medjugorje.

Thank you, Gospa, Our Lady, for being with us and guiding us to God through your Son, Jesus Christ... all these years since the first time God allowed you to appear to the visionaries on Apparition Hill in 1981!
For every human being, every soul.

Our hearts, brightened by the Light of the world, Jesus Christ, can be our "happy place". :-) wherever we are.  

This statue was erected near where she first started appearing and where pilgrims from around the world have traveled there to learn to get closer to our Father, including our Mir-Peace spiritual pilgrimage group, based in the United States of America (btw, Happy 4th of July!).

 Being there is like heaven on earth... we can have that same heavenly feeling back home, wherever we are, whichever country we are in now, by remembering Our Lady's messages which are really sound good advice, by praying, reading the New Testament Gospels, keeping God and His Will in 1st place in our lives. 

                               Our hearts, 

brightened by the Light of the world, Jesus Christ, 

               can be our "happy place".    :-)

  A call to love, with prayer and trust and hope  "... God can move your life, and you will grow in love..." 

Throwback memory to 1988, when Mir-Peace pilgrimage group traveled to Medjugorje for the annual anniversary of Gospa's apparitions, (every year except this due to coronavirus covid-19 pandemic). So different compared to today; necessary progress.This road and surroundings are so different to accommodate the hundreds of thousands of pilgrims, crowds of people from around the world.  

I believe! :-) Thank God!

Gospa, the Blessed Virgin Mary's (EN) June 25, 1988, Medjugorje message, the 7th anniversary:

(HR) Gospina p oruka, 25. lipanj 1988. - za 7. obljetnicu  

(ENGLISH) 

"Dear children! I am calling you to that love which is loyal and pleasing to God. Little children, love bears everything bitter and difficult for the sake of Jesus who is love. Therefore, dear children, pray that God come to your aid, not however according to your desire, but according to His love. Surrender yourself to God so that He may hear you, console you and forgive everything inside you which is a hindrance on the way of love. In this way God can move your life, and you will grow in love. Dear children, glorify God with a hymn of love so that God's love may be able to grow in you day by day to its fullness. Thank you for having responded to my call."  

(HRVATSKI - Croatian) 

“Draga djeco! Danas vas pozivam na ljubav, koja je Bogu odana i ugodna. Dječice, ljubav sve prihvaća, sve što je tvrdo i gorko, radi Isusa koji je ljubav. Zato, draga djeco, molite Boga da vam dođe u pomoć, ali ne po vašim željama, nego po svojoj ljubavi. Bogu se predajte, da vas on može liječiti, tješiti i praštati vam sve ono što je u vama zapreka na putu ljubavi. Bog može oblikovati vašživot i vi ćete rasti u ljubavi. Slavite Boga, dječice, hvalospjevom ljubavi, da bi ljubav Božja mogla rasti iz dana u dan do svoje punine. Hvala vam što ste se odazvali mom pozivu! ”

early Mirjana Medjugorje messages

"... I beg you: pray, pray, pray. Only through prayer can we defeat evil and protect all that satan wants to destroy in your lives. I am your Mother and I love you all equally, and I intercede for you before God..." ~~Gospa Our Lady Queen of Peace's Medjugorje message, 2-25-1994

More messages from Gospa through Mirjana:

November 6, 1982
Frightened by the eighth secret, Mirjana prayed to the Blessed Virgin Mary to preserve humanity from this calamity:

Gospa answered: "I have prayed; the punishment has been softened. Repeated prayers and fasting reduce punishments from God, but it is not possible to avoid entirely the chastisement. Go out in the streets of the city, count those who glorify God and those who offend Him. God can no longer endure that."    

March 18, 1985
To Mirjana:
Gospa: "The rosary is not an ornament for the home, as people often limit the time to using it. Tell everyone to pray it."  

January 28, 1987 

To Mirjana in Sarajevo: 

GOSPA: "My dear children! I came to you in order to lead you to purity of soul, and then to God. How did you receive me? At the beginning you were fearful, suspicious of the children I had chosen. Later on, the majority received me in their heart. They began to put into practice, my maternal recommendation. Unfortunately, that did not last a long time. Whatever be the place where I appear, and with me also my Son, satan also comes. You permitted him to subdue you without realizing that you were being led by him."

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

Jesus Gospel quote with 39 anniverary Gospa message

Living by following the Way, the Truth and the Life has meaning. 

True happiness :-) Everlasting life. 

Go with God! May God's Will be done.

~ (EN) From today's Gospel according to Matthew 10-37-42

~ (HR) Evanđelje po Mateju 10:37-42 ((Croatian Gospel excerpt after Gospa's message))

(EN) Jesus said to his apostles:
“Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;
and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.
Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

Our Lady's Medjugorje message on the 39th anniversary of Our Lady, the Blessed Virgin Mary's apparitions in Medjugorje, thanks be to God! Gratitude also to the citizens of that area: families, visionaries, franciscan priests... who had faith, love Jesus Christ, and took up their crosses not only for themselves, but also for every one of us around the world, many of whom have traveled to #Medjugorje as pilgrims.

(EN) Gospa,Our Lady's Medjugorje Message, 

June 25, 2020

(HR)  Gospina poruka, 25. lipanj 2020

(ENGLISH)

“Dear children! I am listening to your cries and prayers, and am interceding for you before my Son Jesus, who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Return, little children, to prayer and open your hearts in this time of grace and set out on the way of conversion. Your life is passing and, without God, does not have meaning. This is why I am with you to lead you towards holiness of life, so that each of you may discover the joy of living. I love you all, little children, and am blessing you with my motherly blessing. Thank you for having responded to my call.

(HRVATSKI) 

Gospine poruke

Poruka, 25. lipanj 2020

„Draga djeco! Slušam vaše vapaje i molitve i zagovaram pred mojim sinom Isusom za vas koji je put istina i život. Vratite se, dječice, molitvi i otvorite vaša srca u ovom milosnom vremenu i pođite putem obraćenja. Život je vaš prolazan i bez Boga nema smisla. Zato sam s vama da vas vodim prema svetosti života da svaki od vas otkrije radost življenja. Sve vas, dječice, ljubim i blagoslivljem mojim majčinskim blagoslovom. Hvala vam što ste se odazvali mome pozivu."

~ (HR) Evanđelje po Mateju 10:37-42 

37 Tko voli svojega oca ili svoju majku više nego mene, nije me dostojan. Tko voli sina ili kćerku više nego mene, nije me dostojan.

38 Tko ne uzme svoj križ i ne pođe za mnom, nije me dostojan.

39 Tko za sebe čuva svoj život, izgubit će ga, a tko izgubi život zaradi mene, naći će ga.

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!

how to reach spirituality - Faith - Truth - Love & pathway to heaven

how to reach spiritual heights in  Faith - Truth - Love ... and the pathway to heaven.

"... I am a grace from the Heavenly Father, sent to help you to live the word of my Son. Love one another..."  (This is only one of the valuable pieces of insight & great advice by the Gospa, the Blessed Virgin Mary in this Medjugorje message.

 Hvaljen Isus i Marija! -- Praised be Jesus and Mary!)  

Our Lady, Queen of Peace, Gospa's message through visionary Mirjana 9-2-2015

 "Dear children, 

My dear apostles of love, my carriers of truth, again I’m calling you and gathering you around me to help me, to help all of my children who thirst for love and truth - who thirst for my Son. 

I am a grace from the Heavenly Father, sent to help you to live the word of my Son. Love one another. I lived your earthly life. I know that it is not always easy, but if you will love each other, you will pray with the heart, you will reach spiritual heights and the way to Heaven will be opened for you. I, your mother, am waiting for you there because I am there. 

Be faithful to my Son and teach others faithfulness. I am with you. I will help you. I will teach you faith that you may know how to transmit it to others in the right way. I will teach you truth that you may know how to discern. I will teach you love that you may come to know what real love is. My children, my Son will make it possible for Him to speak through your words and your actions. 

Thank you."

  -- Here's an excerpt from earlier the same year (Jan, 2015):

"... Many false truths are being offered to you. You will overcome them with a heart cleansed by #fasting, #prayer, #penance and the #Gospel. This is the only truth and it is the truth which my Son left you. You do not need to examine it much. What is asked of you, as I also have done, is to love and to give. My children, if you love, your heart will be a home for my Son and me, and the words of my Son will be the guiding light in your life..."

Unconditional love. A good thing. :-) The Blessed Mother still loves us unconditionally, as does her Son, Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Excellent role models through their lives that we can learn from in the New Testament! Thank God!
