From Medjugorje : It has been picture-perfect weather in Medjugorje these days, temperatures mild, clear skies and beautiful colors of nature all around. Weather reports say rain and cold weather are on their way in the next day or two.
As the sun sets in Medjugorje this evening, October 9, 2009, we remember the words of Our Lady:
August 25, 1999
“…Also today I call you to give glory to God the Creator in the colors of nature. He speaks to you also through the smallest flower about His beauty and the depth of love with which He has created you…”
Who can look at the colors of a sunset like this and not think of God’s glory? Even when carrying a heavy cross, the sunset reminds us that everything passes away except what is of God.

As the Community of Caritas’ fasting novena continues, we take encouragement from Our Lady’s words knowing that every sacrifice that is offered with love is helping Our Lady achieve the joy of the whole plan being fulfilled that God began in Medjugorje.
September 26, 1985
“Dear children, I thank you for all the prayers. Thank you for all the sacrifices. I wish to tell you, dear children, to renew the messages which I am giving you. Especially live the fast, because by fasting you will achieve and cause me the joy of the whole plan, which God is planning here in Medjugorje, being fulfilled…”

I was in Medjugorje 23 years but somehow our Lady’s call for daily rosary and fasting after a while was forgotten. In July 2008 at Caritas, I believe Our Lady wants to console me to remove my guilty feelings by Marija Lunetti’s wordsForget the past what is important is NOW, PRAY, FAST, LOVE, CONVERT. Maria said this as I was just raising my hand to pose the question to her.Fasting is part of my life now again. I do not have special intentions for it but since Our Lady said so, I do it.
