‘My First Sorrow and Joy’
Children of my Most Chaste Heart:
I desire that we meditate together on the ‘First Sorrow of my Chaste and Loving Heart’, when the Heavenly Queen told me that she had in her womb the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
But, what disturbed me was not the Divine Work of the Incarnation, but that I thought, as a human, that the Mother had failed in her vow of virginity. That disturbed my heart. I thought of leaving her in secret. But the Holy Spirit let me know, giving me an “eternal joy” in my Heart, that the Mother had not failed in her virginity and that she would perpetually remain a virgin.
And so – being the Mother of the Son of God – it was a great joy for me to see my Betrothed to be the Mother of God, Queen of Heaven; and I felt so little, so helpless, so ignorant.
When I was entrusted to take care of Mary, I did not understand, I did not know how to do it; but I believed, I obeyed. And the answers I was waiting for, were not given to me with words but with concrete deeds, with prodigious actions carried out by the Love of God.
Learn, little ones, with this “sorrow and joy” that it is not necessary that you understand everything, that you comprehend everything. The important thing is to believe, to obey and the Holy Spirit of God will guide you as He did in Me, will show you the Truth as He showed it to Me, and will lead you to the full knowledge of God as He led Me to know the Sacred Mysteries of God and of His Mother. Walk, trust, and wait.
I give you my patriarchal blessing.
In the Name of the Father of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Hail Mary most pure, conceived without sin.
