Gentle Reflections from Maureen's Note Book (2)

To care with you,
to share with you ;
to live and laugh
and love with you....
always.

Lighter Moments.

At times when I was feeling overburdened by the whole experience Jesus and Mary would be light-hearted, almost to the point of frivolous. I welcomed these occassions for the relief they brought. I discovered that Mary's favourite bird is the thrush, that she loves yellow lilies, whilst Jesus loves roses. In Nazareth Jesus brought wild flowers to her and Joseph. She did weaving and painting, they gave concerts for friends. It was a delightfully happy home, full of Light, Love and Laughter.

A Poem from Mary- 1990

"I as A Mother"

I as a Mother wish to save my children, wish them to come to Me in Love

and I know that I can show them Peace. I am the Queen of Peace.

This is my whole loving way, and I must show My lovely ones My way of Peace

This is where I know I will offer every moment of loving to this beautiful

Peace.

Please let us see this Peace as a beautiful flower of Love

which grows so surely into every way of Light and Love and Truth.

This is the whole Loving way of Being, and here My Love will reign

in supreme effortless glory, to show the world My Loving way of Peace

in God's own Light and Love. This is my whole way of Peace, My love,

and I will let it be the final way of Life on Earth for everyone.

This is My promise to you all who Love Me and My Son.

The Power of Prayer.

Inner stillness too is vital -taking time each day to disentangle oneself for a while from the speed, the stresses and strains of routine living, to focus as clearly as possible on Them, because God Himself is stillness and only through first finding stillness in ourselves will we come to know Him.

Then there is the enormous power of prayer. As Mary says:- "Pray, pray, pray for everyone in the world,that way your day will not be wasted - try never to waste a moment, put it to constructive use through prayer. Offer every single thing you do - exercise, work, rest, even sleep - a life of Love and Preyer"

They have explained that prayers become " a storehouse of energy which can be put to positive use in the World ". Individual prayer, group prayer,prayer as an instinctive part of life; most of all deep and simple prayer from the heart - this can transform the World. It is only through prayer that God's Spirit will move freely in us and through the World, drawing us with a new momentum towards Love, and Peace and a final fulfillment of God's Plan.

Don't be Negative - Mary 1988

We need to have the humility to look at people and all that is positive in them and to appreciate the otherness of them. We should not try to be like them, or to be better than them, but should accept them and draw them into the corporate whole, realizing that their uniqueness forms part of the whole, and is necessary for it. In no way do they therefore diminish you, but they help to complete you; you must worrk with them towards total unity in God. Whenever we see only the negative side to someone then it does diminish us because our own negative qualities are foremost- disintegration and separation are the operative words. It is not a question of good, better, best - it is a question of thisness and thatness and the most positive qualities of each without comparison. It is this that will create the individual perfection that unite to create the ultimate best in God.

An Uplifting Experience.

Jesus and Mary's messages are all about life and a living that life to the full.Their own life was a complete expression of this fullness, and they desperately wish us all to realize that this fullness, this wholeness, cannot be achieved without a fundamental commitment to love. This scheme of  'Loving and living' will be a steady preparaion, leading us step by step into 'a New Era of Peace', at which point we really will have reached a real understanding of Love. We will realize that as God's children He wishes us to convey our own sense of perfection in terms of a real understanding of His love. We will appreciate His wholeness- and realize how we are integrally bound up with this, as is every part of His creation - - we are all an expression of Himself. Jesus and Mary insist that time is pressing and we must begin to make a move. We must begin to move towards  this wholeness, involve ourselves in life, living, loving, moving outwards into 'a sphere of externals'. This movement towards wholeness and Peace is for Jesus and Mary ' A loving effort of unificaton', We must become united in 'a whole concept of Peace' which urges us - in Mary's words - "to begin to unite with each other, to find in this union a basic means of understanding the wholeness of ourselves. Within this being together in loving union we will draw from each other the positive effort of loving which is part of our own union with God". Life will begin to be 'a whole uplifting experience which leads us towards complete happiness with each other and God.

A poem from Mary to Maureen.

Happiness - Mary

Here in a moment of loving

Here in the depth of the love.

Here in a moment of true life

Is the moment of True Love.

We know that this is to be

The whole loving moment of Truth

In a new loving moment of Life

In a new loving way of belief.

In a sure loving Scheme of the World

To become for Mankind our true selves

In a whole loving way of delight

In a new loving wholeness of Peace.
