Out of love God created the heavens and the earth,
The sun to shine by day,
And the moon and the stars to guide by night.
He created the waters and the dry lands,
He brought forth vegetation of every kind,
And the most succulent fruit trees.
He filled the waters with living creatures,
And birds graced the sky.
He blessed the lands with wild creatures of every kind.
God looked at all He made and He saw how good it was.
Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them. Genesis 1 26:27
Our Father, who has loved us from the beginning of time, only wants to share His goodness with us. Why do we turn from Him so quickly? Why do we harden our hearts toward Him?
"Dear children! I look at you and I see in your heart death without hope, restlessness and hunger. 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 and will fill your hearts with peace, because He is peace and your hope. Thank you for having responded to my call." BVM November 25, 2010
Thank you loving Father for allowing the Blessed Virgin Mary to remain with us so long.

Thanks, DG. This is a beautiful reminder of God's mercy!
Always a Mother, isn't she? Always wanting to unite the family. And, always leading us to Jesus. The invitation is there...how do we respond?
Andie
She always is a Mother to us isn't she Andie!!
I can only hope we respond with a yes!
Peace
Thank You Daily Grace. This is beautiful.
I loved the preface to our Heavenly Mother's message ... I have been praying and talking to the Blessed Mother a LOT lately ... I have been in such need ... with confidence, I await God's reply to my prayers.
Blessings,

This is a great post Daily Grace; especially the quotation at the end from Medjugorje.
I have been praying ... and waiting.
God bless you.
"Our father, who has loved us from the beginning, only wants to share his goodness with us."
This is so difficult for us to believe. We have so little faith and trust. We think we know more than God.
A heartening post, Daily Grace. And I loved reading this especially, "Thank you loving Father for allowing the Blessed Virgin Mary to remain with us so long."
Thank you all, your comments mean so much.
