Dear Forum Members... I have noticed an increase on this forum of prayer requests for our personal intentions... physical sufferings...mental or emotional suffering… familial problems of various kinds...financial worries etc. As I write this post from a rehabilitation facility after fracturing my hip from a fall and going through some very painful hours...I thought how powerful it would be if we all ....as a group united our sufferings and offered them up toHeaven for the purpose of hastening the Triumph of Our Lady’s Immaculate Heart and all that that would accomplish. So .... if you are so inclined.. please join me in this effort!!
Love this idea! I also took a Fall Thanksgiving evening….I’ve wound up with a concussion and a pretty sore back and right side of my body. Thankfully no brain bleed - I can joke now that it may knock some sense into me But I’m grateful as it could have been worse. And yes, am offering up this little bit for all the intentions that have been brought to my attention. thank you, Ellen, for a beautiful idea…. Hope you heal well and quickly. Peace.
I'm in too. I don't know if I can take too much more suffering but not my will but Thine, O Lord, be done. We need to be careful too what we ask for. Alvaro asked to be able to feel the pain of Purgatory ...
And... I want to acknowledge all of you who view this forum who do not wish to post but will participate in this effort to hasten Our Lady’s Triumph! THANK YOU!!!
. Well I had surgery on Nov8 and will get a report on my progress tomorrow and hopefully some idea when I can go home! Thanks for asking.
I see in my minds eye (not a vision or a mystical event... just my imagination) one person trying again and again to push this huge.... heavy....dense ... dark boulder over a tabll brick wall. It’s almost to the top but not quite. Then.... a whole lot of people come up to this struggling person and put all their weight under the boulder and with a burst of incredible strength the boulder rolls up and over the wall!! Meaning... that there are still some heavy duty praying ... fasting and crosses to be carried by her faithful servants in order to get our Blessed Mothers Triumphant Renewal of the World accomplished! Let’s see if WE can.... all together...push that stubborn rock out of the way! Go Team Go!!
He literally left His seat next to the Father in Heaven, to come here for us! The first months were spent safely tucked away in the Blessed Mother's womb. Then, being born in the lowliest of places, His light was already attracting the best of men ~ the shepherds and the wise. He gave up Heaven, for a time, for us, to show us the way there.....imagine the Love it would take to give up Heaven, and endure what He endured, for naught but love of us....May we prove ourselves worthy in following His way, that we someday may find ourselves and our loved ones in Heaven, with Our Lady and Her Son.
A broken hip is so painful! May it quickly heal in God's Mercy. Offering our sufferings together is a powerful prayer I think. The image of the huge Boulder is very apt.
