Message from Our Lady
My beloved children, today I come to call you again to holiness and to think more about the eternity that awaits you.
The true saint is the one who loves the Lord with all his heart, that I have told you here many times, but few have understood this truth.
To love God with all your heart is not to love Him only for His goodness, for His glory, for His graces, not even for the fear of being punished by Him. To love Him is to love the Lord more than life itself, it is to put the love of God before every other kind of love, it is to put the will of the Lord before every other will, it is to put the honor of the Lord before every other honor, it is to put the name of the Lord before every other name.
To love Him is to do what pleases Him and to deplore what is known to displease Him. To love Him is to try not to offend Him so as not to hurt Him. To love Him is to return His favors with unlimited and unreserved love. To love Him is to fight for Him, to serve Him, to work for His glory without ever counting how much one has worked, how much one has served and how much one has given to Him. To love Him is to be completely and completely His without reserving anything for oneself, nor for the creatures. To love Him is to be entirely as He is, Pure Love, Love in pure transformation.
You can only arrive at this great and perfect love through the ways I have given you Here: union with God, meditation, prayer, reading, self-denial, escape from occasions of falling into sin. Only by cultivating a deep and intense love in you will you be able to unite with God until you are one with Him. I have been here for so long, to help you with my messages to reach this perfect union. Think of Heaven! Think of the eternity that awaits you! Begin this life of perfect union with God, which exists in Heaven already on Earth living in deep union with Him.
Renew your love, renew your faith, renew your prayer, trying every day to grow in love, grow in intimacy, grow in your complete surrender to Him. Open your hearts more and more so that the Lord in you may accomplish great things. The measure of the works that God will do in you will be proportional to the measure of the opening of your hearts to Him. My AMBROSSIUM said very well: "Man is that which he loves. If he loves God with a pure heart, then man will be pure love in God, man will be one in love with God, and God will come to him and live in him as my son Jesus said. If man loves sin, if man loves darkness, if man loves that which is of the father of darkness, the devil, that very thing he will be: darkness, sin, devil.
May your hearts choose to be pure love as God is. May your hearts choose to be like My Son Is, may your hearts choose to be like My Immaculate Heart Is: without sin, most pure, pure and unlimited source of divine love for all who thirst for God.
I am with you My children, and every step you take in your lives is closely followed by Me, no pain, suffering, or sadness in your hearts goes unnoticed in My sight, I am always by your side and will never leave you.
Continue to make all the PRAYERS that I have given you here. Follow in the footsteps of the Saints, they are luminous, firm and sure signs that show you the path you must follow to safely reach Paradise.
In this month when you will celebrate the Anniversary of My Medal of Peace, as well as the Day I gave you My Mother Face Here, I promise to pour upon you an abundant shower of many graces, and above all, I promise to renew the flame of divine love in your hearts if you also renew your love for my Medal of Peace, for my Mother's Face and also for the Medal I gave to my little daughter Catherine Labouré, and then I promise also to convert sinners by pouring on them effective graces from my Immaculate Heart. To all at this moment, I generously bless PARIS, PELLEVOISIN and JACAREÍ.
Peace to you all".
