[ANNOUNCER]
Good evening everyone and thank you for joining us on tonight’s broadcast of Radio Wave. Our host is a Friend of Medjugorje and throughout the course of the next hour, a Friend of Medjugorje will be discussing with us the message we received earlier today through Marija. And the 25th of the month is a day that Our Lady gives a message for the world and that is given through one of the six visionaries of Medjugorje, Marija. And this has been taking place since 1987, when Our Lady changed from the weekly messages to the monthly messages given for the world. And so as we begin this broadcast, we ask that you open your hearts in prayer as we turn Radio Wave over to our host, a Friend of Medjugorje.
[A FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Mary we come before you and asking for Your intentions for us tonight, this night, this day of the 25th when You speak to the whole world.
But not only today, but for all future ages until the end of the earth.
We pray that fruit come from this tree of this message today. We take it to heart and give us insight into this, both what we hear, what we say, and what we will read from it in the future. Amen.
Well, we want to welcome everybody to our show tonight. As usual we have the great gift and the joy of being in knowledge that the Virgin Mary came to the earth today and gave a message. We know that at the end of Revelation, the very last book of the, or verses of the Bible that with these monthly messages, Marija, Our Lady, Marija received today and Our Lady’s given at this moment that those last verses in the latter times says that we will receive
“Crystal clear, issuing from the throne of God, medicine to heal the nations, once each month, twelve times a year.”
We have to pinch ourselves to the reality that we live in Biblical times and indeed, in the last biblical times. It doesn’t mean the world is going to end tomorrow, although sometimes when we look at what Our Lady says, we may wonder if we would wish that. But for those who change now, those who follow Her messages now, those who look for Her, look into Her eyes, and become what She is, imitating Her as the first Christian, we have a real joy waiting for us on this earth, not just in Heaven.
So, Our Lady is coming to transform the whole earth through the transformation of my soul and your soul. And these messages are what those last verses in the bible says, and you should look that up, go read your bible. Our Lady says read the bible everyday, know that we’ve been getting this for years, that these words are medicine for the nations. And so it is today’s message, Joan we’ll let you read this to us and contemplate the great gift we have to be alive in this time, recognizing the signs of the times.

Our Lady Queen of Peace of Medjugorje’s January 25, 2011, Monthly Message to the World
“Dear children! Also today I am with you and I am looking at you and blessing you, and I am not losing hope that this world will change for the good and that peace will reign in the hearts of men. Joy will begin to reign in the world because you have opened yourselves to my call and to God’s love. The Holy Spirit is changing a multitude of those who have said ‘yes’. Therefore I desire to say to you: thank you for having responded to my call.”
[A FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
Well, of course this is a beautiful message and its good to here this. I say “good to hear this” because the messages of recent months have not been so good, not in the sense that Our Lady didn’t say good things. She was giving more of a measurement of us where we stood in our souls, making us analyze the state of grace we’re in and the prognosis was not very good. So, this was a beautiful message to see this.
I was talking to Marija earlier today and actually right after the message, and her husband Paolo, also. And so these messages that we’ve been getting for the last, especially through Mirjana’s messages have not been very, making us satisfied with ourself, our condition.
And Paolo said today, it was very good, we got a good message today. I said yes, we did, didn’t we. He said, yeah, Our Lady thinks we’re horses. She is either giving us a stick or a carrot.
So, we’ve been getting a lot of sticks in the last few months and today was a carrot.
So, he thinks a little bit different in the way he has view of Our Lady’s words, but I think that kind of sums up the whole message in the last year or so in what we’ve been getting with these sticks and that She comes and gives us this carrot.
Of course, Our Lady, Marija has actually said that here when she was here, I think it was in 2008, that Our Lady gave several little favors when She was here. Not little, I’d guess you’d say “major” things out of the characteristic, the normal characteristic of the message, or the character of the messages. And Marija described it as Our Lady is giving us little chocolates.
So, these graces are available to everyone on earth. Our Lady gave a blessing today to everyone on earth.
But to receive the benefit of that, you need to be in the state of grace. To receive grace, you must be in a state of grace. If you are not in a state of grace, you want to recognize that. If you are in a state of grace and you are really not praying, you won’t be sensitive to that grace that you receive, even though you received it. And so it is, this is Our Lady’s plans.
“…You, you must pray more dear children. I seek that you pray unceasingly. I ask that you fast. I ask for renunciation, if you can’t fast, or both if you can fast, still do renunciation. I ask for nine days of renunciation…”
And so there are many times Our Lady has given us the impulse to strive for the spiritual life because the future and what She said today:
“I’m looking at you and blessing you. I’m not losing hope that this world will change for the good.”
Strange, although we know the conditions of society and the culture is not very good at this moment. In fact, we’ve never seen the world in this view. It’s interesting when you look at our solar system and you realize that we are the first people in history, the history of the world, all the way back down to Adam, that has been able to look back on the earth. On the Apollo 8 mission 1968. The first time we saw it from a distance. It was amazing, you know, as a live person who saw this.
And so, we have this view through our eyes now that we can see, and what God must see when He looks at that. You know there was a song that was played years ago, “From a Distance.” You know, there is peace, from a distance, everything is beautiful. Why are we fighting for? So, Our Lady’s eyes and what She says and what She asks for us and the beauty that She shows us and things that She can connect into our souls, no one has the eyes She has. The visionaries have said, if you saw one tear flow from Our Lady’s eyes, you’d never want to sin anymore. One tear. Pope Benedict said all we need is just the shedding of one tear for remorse. Our Lady has told us “be open to God’s mercy,” to receive it. Because many aren’t open to God’s mercy and they don’t receive mercy.
So you must be opened to this. Sin is not the problem, God paid for that price through Jesus Christ His Son. Everything is available for redemption for us repeatedly, a thousand, thousand times no matter what we do. If we’re sincere, contrite and we repent and confess. But if we don’t and we ask for God’s mercy, and not in a state of grace, we’re not open to it. We must be open to that. And what does Our Lady’s eyes hold for us? Where will they take you? Can you shout hallelujah when you see Her as the visionaries do. Will they have that for you? There is nothing like what the visionaries say when they see Her, and eye to eye look at Her.
[SONG]
Sometimes they look brown
Sometimes they look blue
Always they offer a beautiful view
Into the soul I’m connected to
No one has eyes like you
They dance in the light
They sing in the dark
They pull me together
They tear me apart
I’m jealous of paper when you read the news
Oh no one has eyes like you
They hold me, they know me
Like no one will ever know me
They fly me
They land me
Most of all they understand me
They shout hallelujah when you whisper my name
Patiently listen to whatever I say
They’re playful and funny
And passionate too
No one has eyes like you
They hold me, and they know me
Like no one will ever know me
And they fly me
And they land me
Most of all they understand me
They smile when I’m happy
They cry when I’m sad
They make me out to be more than I am
Oh nobody loves me the way that you do
And no one has eyes like you
Like you, like you
Like you

It kind of struck me today when I read this message of what, what satan would think, or what do you think that satan thinks hearing these words of Our Lady. You can see him in hearing Our Lady say, “I’m looking at your hearts and I shudder,” as She has said in the past, and that be something that he would rejoice in, but what do you think he thinks in hearing these words of Our Lady today?
[A FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
Well, he hates like acid, hatred like acid eats through anything and everything to do what he has to do to stop the messages. The last thing he wants is these messages that Our Lady has said if for the salvation of the whole world. I desire your conversion, or rather, June 25, 2007, where Our Lady said, “God desires the conversion of the whole world.” And yet, satan knows we suffer, or rather God knows we suffer as a consequence of our sins. And Our Lady doesn’t want this. We think suffering is part of the saint’s lives. No, suffering is the result of attacks from the devil and they use this for atonement.
We’ve been given suffering something because and we should take joy from that, but suffering comes not from God. Ivanka was told God desires a suffer, or rather God desires the discomfort of none of his children. He doesn’t want us to be suffering this way. We often have a middle-age mentality that we’re all supposed to suffer. And God doesn’t desire this, but when it comes your way, we’re to carry those crosses with joy. It doesn’t mean it makes it pleasant, but it does make it mean sweeter because its of value.
You know, Our Lady is talking about the three admonitions, when they come, there are certainly going to be some kind of suffering whether its mentally or our souls are in anguish, of physically. We don’t know. But it is going to have some purification and purification is usually something of very much discomfort. And we can’t avoid it because look at the world. The consequences of our actions, nothing defiled enters into the presence of God. That’s what purgatory is about. God doesn’t want us to be there. He’d be delighted for us to go from this life til the next, straight into Heaven. But nothing defiled enters into the presence of God, so it needs purification.
Coming to God here on earth would be the same way. And so we’re in for some, some kind of discomfort by really our own making. Once we understand these things, we don’t have to be down on ourselves, but take joy. Scripture says take joy when you’ve been given suffering because you’ve been given a measure of mine.
Some people suffer without it being on their own part, or something they’ve done wrong and atonement, they’ve become victim souls. And if you’re not, offer it up for the salvation of souls. Our Lady wants these things.
But one thing is clear, Our Lady wants us to do this with joy. Not that you’d be happy with it, that’s a different thing, but joyful that you can really pay this price, or you can become purified. And the closer you get to Our Lady, the more you can take this.
I once had a lady that was, a girl that was in a car wreck and it was in Medjugorje. And she was restricted for the rest of her life to a wheelchair, and she asked me about it. I said, “Fall in love with it. Fall in love with your suffering. Embrace it. Give it to Our Lady for Her use. And then give to God, give to Our Lady, give to Her Son, what you love the most.” It changed her whole perspective about that. And I know there have been people healed in Medjugorje that accepted their suffering instead of always “oh heal me, heal me, heal me.” And its really the path to be healed. If not that, the strength to cope with it where it is not unbearable.
But I often used to say years ago about what is the purpose of the admonitions. You know, for a nonbeliever, its nothing but punishment. Its nothing but suffering. Can you imagine a nonbeliever laying there and for your suffering or in their bed, the deathbed, they’re suffering with no purpose. Simply because of their belief. But Padre Pio may have suffered, or someone in a car wreck and they don’t believe, they’re suffering with no redemptive value as far as what their knowledge is about as far as their soul.
Padre Pio, he suffered, his stigmata, he hurt from that. But for him, he didn’t run around saying, “oh, oh this pain.” He used this for a redemptive purpose, not only for himself by for salvation of other people.
And so there is purpose to this. It’s not always to our liking, but if you’ve got it, make the best out of it. When one of my children get hurt, I always say don’t let that go to waste. Offer it to Jesus. Well, I don’t want to. This hurt, when they’re little sometimes, they might say that. But if you learn that, that you, why hurt with waste? Some thing going to Las Vegas and blowing money at the casino. Don’t throw that away. Make it valuable. And so, Our Lady has got these things that She’s trying to show us, and what is satan think of it? He hates it. He hates it when we take something that he wants to use to wear you down, to turn against God and not go His way.
And so, December 2, 2007, Our Lady said:
“…Today, while I’m looking at your hearts, my heart is filled with pain and shudder…”
Pretty scary things, real scary messages. And in regards to her there, and this was with thousands of people there. I’m glad I wasn’t there (laughs) but think about that. But also I’m sure She’s looked at me and done the same thing. Actually, the message was so strong, She goes on to say:
“…my children, stop for a moment and look into your hearts. Is my Son, your God truly in the first place, are His commandments truly the measure of your life. I am warning you again, without faith there is no God’s nearness. God’s Word, which is the light of salvation and the light common sense…”
So, in other words, God’s Word is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ, She is saying, is the light of common sense. We’ve lost common sense. We’ve gone to so much intellectualism and theology and things like that, that we don’t see the common good of just the parables and what those meanings were and the simplicity of Our Lady’s messages. And so, we have Our Lady coming, in fact Marija, Mirjana, was so distraught over this message, that Our Lady didn’t, She interrupted Our Lady.
And Our Lady said, or rather Mirjana adds this, I asked Our Lady painfully not to leave us and not to give up on us. Our Lady painfully smiled to my request and left. This time She did not finish Her message with the words “Thank you.” And so, Our Lady came and She gave these words and interrupted it by leaving. Mirjana is saying “Don’t leave us. Don’t give up on us because it sounds like, this message, and this was one of the first ones like that, that Our Lady was giving up.
Our Lady comes back the next month and in an incredible statement, says:
“Dear children, in this holy time, full of graces and his love which sends me, I implore you not to be with the heart of stone. May fasting and prayer be your weapon for drawing closer to coming to Jesus my Son. Follow me, my luminous example. I will help you. I am with you…”
And so that response was Mirjana asking, don’t leave us, don’t give up on us. And She says basically I am not going to give up on you. I am with you. And so we have this beautiful connection from month to month when Our Lady is interrupted and She comes back and saying, “I won’t leave you. I am with you.”

In ages past, God destroyed the sinful world in the waters of the flood.
He chose Noah alone and his family to be saved upon the Ark.
Today, mankind is sinking in a whirlpool of sin and it does not even know in what sin it is sinking.
Who will save us from this whirlpool.
Where is our Ark to be found.
Who is our navigator upon the stormy waves.
The Ark today is not of wood made by man, but rather the opening of a motherly mantle, the Star of the Sea, Mary of Nazareth, Mother of Jesus, the Queen of Peace, God’s Ark for us today, leading us to security, to peace, to a future.
Will you allow yourself to be saved upon this Ark?

The December 2, 2007, message, where Our Lady said, “I’m looking at your hearts and my heart is filled with pain…” and then Mirjana says to Our Lady, painfully, she says, “Do not give up on us.”
The message I read was the following month was actually 2007 and I didn’t read the correct message, but I want to correct that and read what She said after Mirjana says, “Don’t give up on us.” Our Lady comes right back the next month, says:
“Dear children, with all the strength of my heart, I love you and give myself to you. As a mother fights for Her children, I pray for you and fight for you…”
We knew instantly when that was said and read that that was referencing the month before, “Don’t give up on us.” And Our Lady actually in that message says
“…I am warning you again, without faith there is no God…”
That’s the first message in December. “I am warning you again without faith there is no God nearness.”
So, it was incredible that Our Lady answered in this way and She’s coming to the earth for that, She’s fighting for us. You know, there are many judgements should be against us. We see this. We sense it. Nonbelievers know something is up in society and, and the culture, they are uncomfortable. They may not know the reasons that we do, following biblical history or having that knowledge, but we can see these things. We see it in the Bible. We see it in society. We see it in Our Lady saying,
“Look at the signs of the times.”
When we look at what Jesus said, He said,
“Watch for the signs of the times.”
Our Lady is coming on the earth and saying this,
“…now look at the signs of the times…”
You know, we’re in the day of the Lord. And the last chapters of Malachi, says,
“For behold, the day comes burning like an oven when all the arrogant and all evil=doers will be stubble. The day that comes shall burn them up, says the Lord of Hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. But for you who fear my name, the Son of Righteousness shall rise with his healing wings.”
This is what Our Lady is trying to get us to see. That much of what the earth is walking in darkness is going to go to waste. It can’t coexist with Her presence and blessings each day. She’s coming to removed that. And She wants to turn all the wicked to righteousness. It’s not that She wants the arrogant to be burning to stubble. She wants them to be brought to holiness, to be saved. And that’s the beauty and the love Our Lady says:
“I’m fighting for you.”
Leave evil, being evil-doers. Leave the evil in your heart, even as children of God, as Christians.
It goes on and says,
“You shall go forth leaping like calves from the stall.”
What does that mean? Because when you find the love of Our Lady, you’re able to walk with Her, you feel this joy, you feel the joy you’ve never felt before, or had before, because of the things you left that is dragging the culture down. There is the elevation of the light and the decreasing, or rather the increasing of the darkness, decreasing down lower of the heart of man.
And so, we see our calves here, when they are young, it’s fun to watch them. I mean when they run around the pastures, they play, their just like kids. You see a grown cow; it looks so stupid. The bull or the cow. They just look like they exist and breathe and eat, nothing more. But you really feel that you’re looking at children when you see a baby calves, they have so much energy and so this Bible verse has life, the reality of living an agrarian or close to the soil, you see these things. It’s really humorous to watch these calves run and chase each other. Especially on cool mornings when they wake up.
“You shall go forth leaping like calves from the stall and you shall tread down the wicked and they’ll be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day when I act, says the Lord. Remember the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and ordinances that I commanded from him and the ?? of all of it is Israel.”
Tread, what? The wicked down underneath their feet. Our Lady is saying to do that but not the way we’d interpret this. Because you’ve got to apply the Scriptures according to what She says in the messages.
“We want to crush the wicked,” crush wickedness with love. We want them to convert. Change their heart. Join us in this love of Our Lady. Following Her, leading to Her Son, Jesus Christ. This Bible verse goes on and says:
“Behold I will send you Elijah the prophet.”
Our Lady is coming to us as Elijah, to lead us for a great plan for the salvation of the world.
“I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers.”
Beautiful. This is what we need in the culture today to save it. The hearts of the fathers back to their children, the children’s hearts back to their fathers. And it ends with this:
“Least I come and strike the land with the curse.”
Well, there is separation time for those who go back to the children and the children’s hearts to the fathers. This is what is going to happen through the whole world. The whole world would have this. They have this because it is God’s desire, according to Our Lady’s words, that God desires for the fruits, or rather She says,
“…I want the fruits of the family to be seen one day…”
What comes from the family? Religious life, holy lives, spiritual lives. We have in the family one in four children who would receive a vocation. One in four. And yet this is not alive because of the spiritual and the prayer and the open to grace and its being in a state of grace is not here.
So what is your world? Are you turning your heart to the children, if you have children. There are children out there. Do you look at your neighbors as a child. Our Lady does, She calls them little children. She calls them dear children. So, it could be your neighbor. But we’ve got to turn our hearts, just as a father would who loves his children, both to our neighbor, both to those in our family, and both to even our enemies.
So, what kind of world have you made? What kind of world did you make that you live in. It said the bed you make, you lay in. What are your choices. We have a whole world that we can look at and see the beauty of it, just like the first astronauts when they looked back in ’68, and saw the world and couldn’t help think but God. And which one was it that had a spiritual conversion standing on the moon, looking back at the earth? The presence of God. Can you imagine the isolation this man felt, or any of them. How could you not believe? First Romans talks about this.
There is no excuse not to believe because of known realities out in Creation. When you look at Creation, you can’t help but think of God. So, you’re not excused, if you have doubt, if you have nonbelief in you, you’re not excused. Because if you just open your heart and look, and in fact Our Lady said something incredible, She said, for what we, when asked about people that don’t believe in God or are atheists, She says have them meditate five minutes a day on the God they don’t believe exists.
That’s all Our Lady needs. This is incredible. So, we need to change our view of the world and look at the beauty of it and look at what God wants to lead it to. It’s just not we’re in the world and we’re going to be suffering all the time and it’s going to be hell.
Our Lady just said in this message:
“…I bring you hope. I’m not losing hope that this world would change for the good and that peace will reign in the hearts of men…”
This means, its going to happen. The question is, are you going to be in that reign, are you going to be in that peace. She says,
“…Joy will begin to reign in the world because you have opened yourselves to my call and to God’s love…”
That’s all you have to do. And this is beautiful:
“…The Holy Spirit is changing a multitude of those who have said yes…”
So, what is your view of the world? What kind of world are you making? The world is a beautiful place. satan has soiled it. And all that soil, and all that, that will not change, that is going to resist, just like a demonic resists Jesus, even with the power so much when he ordered them out of the men who he end up driving them out of the pigs, they started bargaining with him, he was so powerful, he balked. He was able to balk at Jesus Christ words. Send us in the pigs, not back to hell, and he did so. Not that Jesus couldn’t do it without sending them out to the pigs, but it shows you the resistance of darkness.
Are we going to stay darkened in our souls. And Our Lady, remember, is talking to the Church. The “churched.” This is what has got to change first before we can change everything else. So, the world is our friend, or our friend darkness and not in a state of grace, makes us cold as steel. Are you going to break that? Are you going to be able to look at it and see it and the beauty of what Our Lady is offering to us?
Many can’t because they’re not praying, they’re not fasting or they don’t want to. All you have to do in this time, Our Lady says, conversion is easy for those who desire it, just open your heart to the world to be a better place, by making your world a better place.

Traffic crawls
Cell phone calls
Talk radio screams at me
Through my tinted window I see
A little girl
A rust red minivan
She’s got chocolate on her face
Got little hands
And she waves at me
Yeah, she smiles at me
Well, hello world, how ya been?
Good to see you my old friend
Sometimes I feel, cold as steel
Broken like I’m never gonna heal
I see a light, a little hope, in a little girl
Well, hello world
Every day I drive by
A little white church
It’s got these little white crosses
Like angels in the yard
Maybe I should stop on in
Say a prayer
Maybe talk to God
Like He is there
Ooh, I know he’s there
Yeah, I know he’s there
Well, hello world, how ya been?
Good to see you my old friend
Sometimes I feel, as cold as steel
And broken like I’m never gonna heal
I see a light, a little grace, a little faith unfurl
Well, hello world
Sometimes I forget what living’s for
And I hear my life through my front door
And I’ll be there, oh, I’m home again
I see my wife, my little boy, little girl
Hello world
Hello world
All the empty disappears
I remember why I’m here
Just surrender and believe
I fall down on my knees
Oh, hello world
Hello world
Hello world
[A FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
Now, the empty disappears, I remember why I’m here, just surrender and believe. Our Lady’s key word is surrender, surrender to Her everything.

In 1981, the Virgin Mary began appearing in a village in the former-Yugoslavia called Medjugorje.
The Virgin came because She said the world was in need of healing of faith in God.
She called Herself the Queen of Peace. Every day since 1981, the Virgin Mary of Medjugorje has appeared to give a blessing for the world.

And can you imagine the solar system, the universe and everything, the magnitude of that and it’s dwarfed by the presence of the Holy Virgin Mary and Her presence. And you can be there. What? I remember Marija came one time on a surprise visit. We called some 200 people that we knew who were real strong with our mission at that time and they were friends of the mission. And we said Marija came here for a surprise visit. She is going to leave the day after tomorrow. We wanted to invite you to an apparition. They flew in from California. They flew in from Texas. They flew in from way up north, maybe New York, just on one moment’s notice.
You’ve got a month plus preparation to come. To be in Our Lady’s presence. Our Lady says there are particular graces available during the apparition. These times will never come back again. But because it is Our Lady who says these are the last apparitions on earth. Why would you not want that? She said today, “I look, I’m looking at you, and blessing you.” Marija says one of the most endearing things during the apparition, and She has done here several times, is She looked at each face.
Now if there are thousands of people here, She is looking at each face, we know you’re probably going to be one that is going to be skipped. That’s the way I would think. But Marija says no, She looked at each face. The apparitions, sometimes seem like two hours for Marija and four or five minutes for us. And when Marija says that, that happens. She can’t explain it. But it does. I said, why is it endearing when She looks at us like this. She says, because it is so beautiful that She’s checking each, She’s actually moving Her head back and forth to signify to Marija that She’s looking at each heart. She did something beautiful, I think it was 2009, right? Most incredible.
Our Lady, She came in and She said, we had thousands of people in the Field, she said Our Lady looked at each face. And she said Our Lady stood there, Her feet firmly planted in the cloud that She appears on, and She twisted around, raising Her arms up, praying over, looking at each face, twisting back around so She could see behind Her, went all the way around, almost three-sixty, the other way to Her right, and looked at everybody behind Her.
And she said this was very beautiful. And so Our Lady wants, well, I asked Her, I said why does Our Lady do that. She wants us to know that She knows you’re there as an individual, She is looking after each one of Her children. So,
“…also today I’m with you and I’m looking at you and blessing you. I’m not losing hope that this world will change for good and that peaceful reign in the hearts of men. Joy will begin to reign in the world because you have opened yourselves to my call and God’s love…”
We’ve been giving shows for two or three years now and we’ve been talking about things that are going to happen and how difficult its going to be. But Our Lady says, make your decisions now that it might go well for you. the people that have been listening to us, talking about the culture will fall, our system is now is not going to last, seems to contradict this thing when Our Lady says “joy will reign” or
“…joy will begin to reign in the world because you have opened yourselves to my call and to God’s love…”
That’s the key is to open yourselves to Her call. Those who are not won’t be in joy. And so Our Lady says,
“I see a multitude, the Holy Spirit is changing a multitude of those who have said yes.”
We’ve been pushing the message, guiding it, showing you to change your direction and people are doing it. It’s like the guy who called a few weeks ago.
“I’ve got my tractor and 29 acres. He was overjoyed.”
Everybody is downsizing or changing their situations in how they live and coming in union with the message and we’re hearing from people that are very, very happy about what they are doing. From acting on the book It Ain’t Gonna Happen, Look What Happened, the booklets or the Ark or whatever, hundreds of little booklets.
They are acting on these things, and they are going to a more joyful life. The joy of the life Our Lady calls us to in the future. And it is so beautiful to hear Her say, “I’m not losing hope” because Her messages are making people change their direction giving them hope. Change the world for the good. And so, what kind of world are you creating? You want happiness? Start acting on that. You say I’m too old, or I can’t or I’m this. There are things you can do.
I can’t tell you. But the messages are given to you loosely that you can. You can change things. And so it is that the changing world is the power today is in the woman. She changes her heart, or whether she changes the world one heartbeat at a time. And there is so much power in that. When, and this applies to the fathers turning their hearts to children. That means the mothers are turning their hearts to children. That they are looking at this role. That it is not in the corporate board room, it’s not in your career, it’s in changing the culture through your children because they will grow up, transcend into adulthood, and their mentalities will be what the culture will be.
And so it is, we need to realize we can change the world and whose got the power today is the woman because that’s God, rather that’s who God sends, a Woman. And you’ll see Her messages often addresses the women, the mother. The world is in need of Motherhood. Fatherhood cannot reign without the queenship of the mother. And when that motherhood reigns, you’ll see a beautiful thing, a touch of grace, because women have that grace. Men don’t have it. We’re beasts. We’re beasts. Only a woman can change those beasts to gentlemen and she’s the one that reaches out to them. She’s the one that touches them. She’s the one that changes history. We’re history makers.
Those who follow Our Lady are making history for eternity because we’ll talk about this in Heaven and all the battles we’ve fought. And every [inaudible] mother can do that, she’s got that much power, that much influence. Your one {inaudible-kiss?] away from that, especially as a mother.
[SONG]
You’re up all night with a screaming baby
You run all day at the speed of light
Everyday you feel a little bit less
Like the beautiful woman you are
So you fall into bed when you run out of hours
And you wonder if anything worth doing got done
Well maybe you just don’t know
Maybe you’ve forgotten that you
You, are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell how you
You are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
With every I know you can do it
With every tear that you kiss away
So many little things seem to go unnoticed
But just like the drops of rain down the line
Baby come a river
You, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell how you
You are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
You, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell how you
You are changing the world
Oh girl you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time

This is such a queenly message in the sense that Our Lady has used the word “reign” twice in this message, saying that there is a time coming where peace is going to reign and joy is going to reign, and She’s there standing there, She says She is with us, She is looking at us and She is blessing us, all in the same sentence.
And She’s speaking about this multitude who have said “yes”, that the Holy Spirit has gathered together. My question is that you’ve been on these series of talks in recent months, having the opportunity to be on both sides of the nation and just your travels back and forth to Medjugorje, many people on the plane, you know all of these kinds of encounters, how do you see this, yourself, in these gatherings that you’ve been with.
Do you see this happening where that the world is changing through these groups of people that have said yes to Our Lady.
[A FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
Well, we’re dealing with different, a different mentality that we were ten years ago with the message. I know in ’96, ’97 and even in that area, as late as that, that people would think you’re fatalistic and yet if they read what we we’re saying then, we wasn’t fatalistic, we were talking about hope. Our Lady is our hope. But see the world was going pretty good at that point, per say. Yeah, there was a lot of bad things, but the general culture didn’t feel what it feels now. I mean any nonbeliever you talk to feels like there is something dying, they feel.

Some people misinterpret that and they need to go exercise and they need to diet. Or they need to eat more vitamins and they start thinking I’ve gotta, you know, what they’re mistranslation in their inner being is their soul’s dying. And there is nothing wrong with taking vitamins, nothing like that, but we have general people out there, there are people out there that they are doing everything they can to stay youthful, plastic surgery, everything. They are searching for all the wrong things. When what it is is their soul is seeking to be above the flesh and be revived. On November 25th, Our Lady said, 2010, “Dear children, I look at you and I see in your hearts, death, without hope, restlessness and hunger. This is just two months ago, Our Lady is saying this.
“…There is no prayer or trust in God, that is why the Most High permits me to bring you hope and joy. Open yourselves, open your hearts to God’s mercy and He will give you everything you need to fill your hearts with peace because He is peace and your hope…”
This message is just the opposite. What happened? I called Marija that day. I said, Marija, what did you think about this message when Our Lady said,
“…I see in your heart death, without hope, restlessness and hunger…”
She said,
“…I was shocked. Never before has Our Lady spoken to me this way…”
Now, Mirjana has had these messages, Mirjana’s messages, March 2, 2009, Our Lady says:
“…I am here among you. I’m looking into your wounded and restless hearts…”
October 2, 2009
“…I look at you and my heart seizes with pain. Where are you going my children, have you sunk so deep in sin that you do not know how to stop yourself. You justify yourselves with sin and live according to it. Kneel down beneath the cross and look at my Son. He conquered sin and died so that you, my children, may live…”
August 2, 2007
“…Today I look at your hearts and looking at them, my heart seizes with pain…”
Again, She sais this.
“…My children, I ask of you unconditionally, pure love for God…”
And so we see this and then we see this November message just two months ago saying about your heart seizes, Marija is shocked by this. The next day I talked to her again. I said Marija what do you think? She said, I’m telling you, I’m shocked. And again she repeated a second time, “never has Our Lady said this to me.” And so today’s message is incredible. Incredible in the sense that She says,
“…I am with you, I’m looking at you and blessing you. I’m not losing hope that this will, this world will change for good…”
This is what we just heard. To change the world. She’s rising up us to change the world. And if we don’t have hope. If we don’t follow, how can anybody else hope to have it because we are walking with the joy of God, the Holy Virgin Mary.
“…and joy will begin to reign in the world because you have opened yourselves to my call and God’s love…”
I haven’t addressed this yet, but the way Our Lady ended this is really different and really incredible. She says,
“…Therefore, I desire to say to you, thank you for having responded to my call.”
She doesn’t always, She doesn’t say that. Every message says, period. And then
“…Thank you for responding to my call.”
She is so pleased with us yes, and the multitudes that are changing, and for this joy that is going to reign in the world, that She says
“…Therefore, I desire to say to you, thank you for responding to my call.”
In other words, you’ve heard me. You’ve heard my admonitions about ‘I’m looking at your heart,’ and you’re changing. You may not be perfect, but you’re coming to be saints and angels.
Where can that best be? Between husband and wife because they raise the angels, if they’re saints. If they’re demons, they are raising little Beelzebubs. We see this everywhere. Children have become tyrants, selfish, neglectful, no care for their parents.
But Our Lady wants us to open the grace, first get in the state of grace, ask for the grace, open your heart to it and open yourself to God’s mercy. To get God’s mercy, you have to be open to that. Many people aren’t. These are Our Lady’s words about open your heart to mercy. So, to receive mercy, you have to be open to it.
And so as we are looking at these things, the visionaries have said, you teach your children how to love God by loving each other. So, husbands and wives, if to the neighbors, whoever you are, they affect. We’ve seen this just on our trip. People are affected by my wife and I on this last trip. We didn’t know they were observing us. We were out by ourselves and brought a couple towards Medjugorje who sought us out, by the Holy Spirit. So, you don’t know how God will use you. But if you give yourself to Our Lady, She will use you.
And so this love between the husband and wife, in each other’s arms, make you saints and you raise up angels. And we’ve lost this concept. We’ve lost the power of the family. We’ve lost the understanding of how powerful the family can be and it is your world, your family, your community, the community Our Lady asked for here to be established is the world. It’s our daily world. It’s what we do. It’s how we grow. It’s how we become perfect with our imperfections.
[SONG]
We’re only human, baby
We walk on broken ground
We lose our way
We come unwound
We’ll turn in circles, baby
We’re never satisfied
We’ll fall from grace
Forget we can fly
But through all the tears that we cried
We’ll survive
Cause when we’re torn apart
Shattered and scarred
Love has the grace to save us
We’re just two tarnished hearts
When in each other’s arms
We become saints and angels.
I love your imperfections
I love your everything
Your broken heart, your broken wings
I love you when you hold me
And when you turn away
I love you still and I’m not afraid
Cause I know you feel the same way
And you’ll stay
Cause when we’re torn apart
Shattered and scarred
Love has the grace to save us
We’re just two tarnished hearts
But in each other’s arms
We become saints and angels.
These feet of clay (these feet of clay)
They will not stray
Cause when we’re torn apart
Shattered and scarred
Love has the grace to save us
We’re just two tarnished hearts
But in each other’s arms
We become saints and angels.
Saints and angels
Saints and angels
Saints and angels…
[A FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
Sometimes I get up in the middle of the night and I see the washing machine is running. And I don’t hear that running. I hear love. Love because there are so many hours in the day that you can’t get to everything, especially a wife and mother. And so it is, we’re preparing for Marija coming, March 19th to the 23rd and for you. And when the community is so busy, a community that the Holy Virgin Mary asked for to be established in 1988, for the purpose of February 25, 1988,
“…sacrifice your life for the salvation of the world…”
We’re working for you. Without stop of rest, with very little sleep, we’ll go right up to that moment, so even if there’s not enough time to wash clothes during the day.
You can’t even conceive the sacrifices being offered for you to make your stay here open to grace and to love. And so it is, you should be thoughtful in thanking God, what if you died tonight. Every grace is available to you. Ask Our Lady to bring you to Her Son. Ask Her to hold you at your death. Be it tonight or decades, every grace is available to you if you put yourself in a state of grace. We wish you Our Lady, we love you, goodnight.
