Message of September 25, 2010
Dear children! Today I am with you and bless you all with my motherly blessing of peace, and I urge you to live your life of faith even more, because you are still weak and are not humble. I urge you, little children, to speak less and to work more on your personal conversion so that your witness may be fruitful. And may your life be unceasing prayer. Thank you for having responded to my call.

A Little Reflection ( by Sr. Isabel )
As we move into another season of the year when, around here, the leaves begin to change color and the grass turns brown, Our Lady blesses us with her motherly blessing of peace. The changing of the season reminds us that we, too, must change so that new life can come forth from us in order that we become true and authentic witnesses of God's action in our lives. Our Lady urges us to grow in our faith and to live it with even greater effort than in the past. She knows that the obstacles to growing in faith are our own weaknesses and lack of humility. It takes humility for us to admit our weaknesses and to accept God's grace for change. Words that are not met with actions which bear testimony to the truth of our words do not bear fruit. Rather, they turn others away from us and from God. Hence, Our Lady reminds us to speak less and to work on personal conversion. It takes ongoing and consistent prayer, daily prayer, to respond to the graces that God wants to give us so that we can change and bear fruit to His honor and glory.

Thanks Ed...the message and the reflection just reminds me that exchanging dialog with the opponents of Medjugorje is fruitless.
Beautiful reflection!
