The new dawn is approaching, so please turn to My Son

MESSAGE #2984 from the Blessed Mother April 23, 2007
 
My daughter;  Please continue to write, for these messages are for the world.

All my children must come to know God’s love, mercy and forgiveness. Believe; believe in God’s unconditional love. Believe in God’s love for you so you turn to Him each new day. It is time now to respond to God’s love so you can be light to a world that is so filled with darkness.

The new dawn is approaching, so please turn to My Son and place all your trust in Him. Climb God’s holy mountain and through your efforts, peace and love will dwell in your hearts. Amen.
Psalm 56 1-6 & 13

Be merciful to me, O God, for men hotly pursue me; all day long they press their attack.  My slanderers pursue me all day long; many are attacking me in their pride.

When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid.  What can mortal man do to me?  All day long they twist my words; they are always plotting to harm me.  They conspire, they lurk, they watch my steps, eager to take my life. For you have delivered me from death and my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.
JOHN PAUL II  GENERAL AUDIENCE
Wednesday 19 September 2001

Dear Brothers and Sisters, It is a dark night; devouring wild beasts are perceived in the surroundings. The one who prays is waiting for the coming of dawn so that the light will dispel the darkness and fear. This is the background of Psalm 56 on which we reflect today. It is a night prayer made by the one who prays at the break of day, anxiously awaited, in order to be able to praise the Lord with joy. In fact, the psalm passes from dramatic lament addressed to God to serene hope and joyful thanksgiving.

In reality, one assists at the passage from fear to joy, from night to day, from nightmare to serenity, from supplication to praise.

Catechism of the Catholic Church

409 This dramatic situation of “the whole world [which] is in the power of the evil one” makes man’s life a battle:

The whole of man’s history has been the story of dour combat with the powers of evil, stretching, so our Lord tells us, from the very dawn of history until the last day. Finding himself in the midst of the battlefield man has to struggle to do what is right, and it is at great cost to himself, and aided by God’s grace, that he succeeds in achieving his own inner integrity.

Excerpts of a Homily by Fr. Robert Altier December 21, 2003

If we look around in our society today, [God] is allowing our society and the people within it to go their own way. As we have spoken of over the last number of weeks, quoting Saint Paul, “Where sin abounds, grace abounds all the more,” so we know that there is more grace available to people today than there ever has been before in history. It is not because of a lack of grace on God’s part that all of these things are happening. In fact, Saint Faustina told us about the time of mercy and how there would be an abundance of grace available for people

Our Lady has to be firmly established before her Son is going to come. She is going to give birth again but not in any kind of physical way. Rather, the fullness of the truth regarding Our Lady will be fully known and understood and accepted and lived.

And it is through that that Jesus Christ is truly going to be born in the hearts of all who believe, and that He will find a new sort of incarnation, if you will, in the world – through us, who are children of Our Lady and who believe in her Son. This is the pattern that God has established. He will give up the people; He will send Our Lady, the dawn that comes before the sunrise; and then He will send the Son of justice, Jesus Christ.

The time of mercy has not yet stopped. Things are going to get very ugly because the darkest part of the night comes right before the dawn, and the saints tell us that Mary is the dawn that precedes the sunrise. So as the world prepares to receiver her Savior, there was one who was prepared long before everyone else – and that was His mother. She is now preparing the hearts of those who will believe, of those who will be faithful to her Son.
