Our Lady has given similar messages with these words. But, what does it mean for Our Lady to lead?
(Medjugorje photo taken on Thursday, September 2, 2010, 8:39 AM) – Study this picture of Medjugorje visionary Mirjana. What do you see? You see that Mirjana appears to be in awe of Our Lady. What must go through the minds of the Medjugorje visionaries when Our Lady is before them? On the day this picture was taken, Sept. 2, 2010, Our Lady said, “I am beside you because I desire to help you to overcome trials…” Yet, another message showing that Our Lady is leading and teaching us.
Sometimes, in the Medjugorje world, people have nonchalantly talked about the fact that Our Lady “leads” us. Yet, there is alot of meaning to those words. For Our Lady to lead, She has to have authority. But, where does Our Lady’s authority come from? A Friend of Medjugorje explains more, and it helps us to understand more about Her leadership:
Our Lady speaks with authority today, not so much by God’s elevation of Her*, but by the authority of Her own experiences and cognition — life on earth experiences that after 2,000 years, She has not lost memory of. Rather, She reflects and recalls them for us today…

from Authority of Experience – April 4, 2016
What we now understand by what a Friend of Medjugorje explains, is that one cannot ever complain that Our Lady does not understand us or our lives. When She leads, we can be sure of the road to follow because She has walked that path. But also, a Friend of Medjugorje’s words tell us something else about this authority of Our Lady. They tell us that while Our Lady is the Mother, She is also the Queen. Medjugorje visionary Marija once told a Friend of Medjugorje about how when Our Lady appears, Marija finds it very hard to speak, She is in such respect of Our Lady. We cannot see Our Lady. But, we can see an example of those who do see Our Lady. Yes, She is a Mother. But, we must not grow so familiar with Her as a Mother, that we forget that She is the Queen, Who leads, and commands our highest respect.

*A Friend of Medjugorje is stating, “not so much by God’s authority” in the context of the physical realm of Her experiences on earth. Of course, God has elevated Our Lady.

Wonderful and awesome signal grace Michael!! Thank you for sharing!
Dear Medjugorje Friends, Yesterday I was Led by Our Queen, in a most wonderful way. Thinking I was going to work, She had other plans for me. As I left, I was stopped and shown, it was time to send the Racism Response Letter, She had me prepare, over the 4th of July weekend. I followed Her Lead, starting a new project, here @ home. I continued praying and seeking, Her & God’s Sweet Guidance. Later in the day, while pondering if I’d understood everything correctly, I was given a most wonderful, sign as afirmation. This Sign by Our Lady, tells me when something wonderful is about to happen, “Stay Attentive, It Says”. To my delightful surprise, a Truck drove by me with an easily recognized sign, of a company, I’d worked for a number of years ago. Being Led, to follow the truck to its destination, I obeyed. My Old Boss, a Black Gentleman, Pastor and Paving Co. Owner, with an entirely Black Crew, were all, excited to see me. I was Led to a group, who know Truth, about My Character.
