On November 18, 1983, Our Lady said, “In Medjugorje, many have begun well, but they have turned toward material goods, and forget the only good.” It is satan’s plan to enslave us through materialism and consumerism. Even those who follow Our Lady often find themselves trapped by their desires that divide their hearts. Through listening and living Her messages we can, step-by-step, learn how to let go of our “miserable interests” and choose freedom rather than slavery, life rather than death of our souls.
