“Is your heart wandering in today’s darkness? Has the news of the day been too heavy to bear? Are you tired of carrying your crosses, when there seems to be no time soon when you will get to lay them down? Perhaps the problem isn’t so much within your difficulties, as it is in a lack of understanding of what Our Lady has asked you to do.

“…Dear children, God does not want you lukewarm and undecided, but that you totally surrender to Him…”

“…I am calling you, the parish, to pray more and to let your prayer be a sign of surrender to God. Dear children, I know you are all tired, but you don’t know how to surrender yourselves to me. During these days surrender yourselves completely to me!…”
Another time Our Lady said:
“Why do you not put your trust in me? I know that you have been praying for a long time but really surrender yourself. Abandon your concerns to Jesus. Listen to what He says in the Gospel: ‘And who among you, through his anxiety, is able to add a single cubit to the length of his life.’” (Mt. 6:27)
You are always going to be faced with troubles, and our future world promises to be filled with reasons to be anxious, fearful, and troubled. But Our Lady strongly encourages us to surrender everything to Her, and in this way we will find peace, even in the midst of terror and uncertainty. However, for us to achieve this, we must do as She has asked.

“…I am calling you to a complete surrender to God. Pray, little children, that satan does not sway you like branches in the wind. Be strong in God…Neither be anxious or worried. God will help you and show you the way…Little children, you are mine. I love you and I want you to surrender to me so I can lead you to God. Pray without ceasing so that satan cannot take advantage of you. Pray so that you realize that you are mine…”
These days are special days of peace in Medjugorje. You are being remembered in our prayers.
