Reflection on the Message of July 25, 2004 I DESIRE, LITTLE CHILDREN, TO DRAW YOU ALL CLOSER TO MY SON JESUS "Dear children! I call you anew: be open to my messages. I desire, little children, to draw you all closer to my Son Jesus; therefore, you pray and fast. Especially I call you to pray for my intentions, so that I can present you to my Son Jesus; for Him to transform and open your hearts to love. When you will have love in the heart, peace will rule in you. Thank you for having responded to my call." Message of July 25, 2004 Behind the simple words of this message, there is Mary, our Mother, who loves her children. The heart of Mary feels our suffering and suffers when we suffer. She has compassion with us and she regrets when we are locked up and when we do not make any case of what she wants to say to us. Mary suffers with her children as a mother suffers with hers. The purer the heart is, and the more the love is great, the greater is sorrow because of evil, sin and all that destroys life. Mary, our Mother, invites us to prepare the space in which Jesus will be able to come. Without our preparation, without our opening, Jesus remains powerless in his action. In the Gospels, we see that Jesus knew failures, that he could not help those who did not want to listen to him, to believe in him and to draw et the treasure of his life. Only the simple ones and the humble ones discover the force of the simplicity of Mary and of God. The words of the message of Our Lady are so simple. Seen from outside, they are ordinary, human words, just as Jesus, our God was wrapped in simplicity, smallness and humanity. We see Jesus each day on our altars, in Holy Masses, wrapped in ordinary simplicity of the bread, and it can happen that we do not recognize him and do not even meet him! It can happen to us to receive Holy Communion, the consecrated host, without meeting the living risen Christ, who - in the simplicity of the bread - gave to us the force of his resurrection and of his love. All that we need: love, peace, meaning of life, joy, Jesus gave to us in Holy Mass. In a certain manner, the presence of Mary, our Mother, is hidden in simple, ordinary, human words in which - through faith and abandonment - we discover the force which attracts us and which leads us to Jesus and the encounter with him. Just like Jesus, who became man in a simple way and who thus approached us, Mary speaks to us in a comprehensible and simple way. Let us recognize with faith and the heart that, behind this simplicity, is to be fund the Holy One and the Pure One, for whom our hearts are longing. We are children of Mary, and each child needs a Mother, cannot live without her. The desire of Mary is to bring us closer Jesus. She wishes that the desire to know and to meet Jesus might be born in our heart also. Without this desire, she cannot help us. It is necessary that our heart come into movement in order to encounter and to know Jesus. Mary knows her Son better than anyone else, but she knows also the way to reach him. We are in sure hands if we go to her to receive council and assistance. To pray for Mary’s intentions means to pray that her maternal desires are carried out, and not our own desires. She knows what is for our good; she knows it better than us, because she loves us more than we are able to love ourselves. Her desire is to present us, to offer us to Jesus. As she presented Jesus in the Temple to the Heavenly Father, she wants to present us to her Son Jesus. He is the source of love and of peace. We need him, so that peace reigns in our families and in our human relations - not the peace of this world, but the peace that comes from his Heart pierced on the cross.

Razmiljanje uz zadnju poruku, 25. srpnja 2004 ELIM VAS SVE PRIBLIITI MOM SINU ISUSU "Draga djeco! Pozivam vas iznova: budite otvoreni mojim porukama. elim vas, djecice, sve pribliiti mom Sinu Isusu, zato vi molite i postite. Posebno vas pozivam da molite na moje nakane, tako da vas mogu prikazati mom Sinu Isusu, te On preobrazi i otvori vaa srca ljubavi. Kad budete imali ljubav u srcu, u vama ce vladati mir. Hvala vam to ste se odazvali mome pozivu." Poruka, 25. srpnja 2004. Iza ovih jednostavnih rijeci poruke stoji majka Marija koja ljubi svoju djecu. Marijino srce osjeca i trpi kad mi trpimo. Ona suosjeca s nama i ao joj je kad smo zatvoreni i ne marimo za ono to nam eli reci. Kao to majka u obitelji trpi sa svojom djecom kad ona trpe, pati kad djeca pate, tako i Marija. to je srce cistije i ljubav veca to je i bol veca zbog zla, grijeha i svega to razara ivot. Majka Marija nas poziva da pripremimo prostor u koji Isus moe doci. Bez nae priprave i otvorenosti i sam Isus ostaje nemocan u svom djelovanju. Vidimo Isusa u evandeljima kako nije ima uspjeha, nije mogao pomoci ljudima koji nisu bili pripravni posluati, vjerovati mu i uzeti od blaga Njegova ivota. Samo jednostavni i ponizni otkrivaju snagu Marijine i Boje jednostavnosti. Rijeci Gospine poruke su tako jednostavne. Izvana gledano, rijeci su obicne, ljudske. Isto kao to se na Bog u Isusu obukao u obicnost, malenost i ljudskost. Isusa svaki dan gledamo na naim oltarima, u svetim misama obucena u obicnost i jednostavnost kruha, a moe se dogoditi da ga ne prepoznamo i ne susretnemo. Moe nam se dogoditi da se i pricestimo, uzmemo posvecenu hostiju ali ne susrecemo ivog, uskrslog Krista koji je snagu svog uskrsnuca i ljubavi ostavio nama u obicnost kruha. Sve ono to nam treba: ljubav, mir, smisao ivota, radost Isus nam je ostavio u svetoj misi. Na neki nacin prisutnost majke Marije sakrivena je u jednostavnim, obicnim, ljudskim rijecima u kojima vjerom i predanjem otkrivamo snagu koja nas privlaci i vodi do Isusa i susreta s Njim. Kao to je Isus na jednostavan nacin postao covjekom i pribliio se nama tako nam i Marija razumljivo i jednostavno govori. Iza te jednostavnosti pogledajmo vjerom i srcem Nju, Presvetu i Precistu za kojom ceznu naa srca. Mi smo Marijina djeca, a svako dijete treba majku, ne moe bez nje. Marijina elja je pribliiti nas Isusu. Ona eli da se i u naem srcu rodi elja upoznati i susresti Isusa. Bez te elje ona je nemocna da nam pomogne. Potrebno je da se nae srce pokrene za susretom i upoznavanjem Isusa. Marija svog Sina poznaje najbolje ali isto tako zna put kojim doci do njega. U sigurnim smo rukama ako se obratimo njoj za savjet i pomoc. Moliti na Marijine nakane znaci moliti da se ostvare njezine, majcinske elje za nas a ne nae elje. Ona zna to je za nae dobro bolje nego mi jer nas ljubi vie nego mi moemo i znamo ljubiti sami sebe. Njezina elja je prikazati nas, darovati nas Isusu. Onako kako je ona prikazala Isusa u hramu Ocu nebeskom eli i nas prikazati svom Sinu Isusu. On je izvor ljubavi i mira. Njega trebamo kako bi u naim obiteljima i meduljudskim odnosima vladao njegov mir koji nije mir ovoga svijeta nego mir koji dolazi iz njegova probodenog srca na kriu. Fra Ljubo Kurtovic
