Pray for me O Holy Mother of God, that I, your Humble Servant, will carry out, Your requests, with True and Unfailing Faith in You, and Your Blesséd Son, Jesus Christ.
No. 1 First Revelation
My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
On the eve of December 3rd 2003, the day after the Memorial Mass for my very Dear Friend and “Adopted Mother”, I went for my usual “Bush Trek” exercise, predominantly for the benefit of my ailing heart, a routine that I have been carrying out for close to ten years now, since my first heart attack, and during which, since my enlightenment of the request of “Our Blesséd Mother” at “Fatima”, for all of us to pray the Rosary on a daily basis, I nearly always Pray my own Rosaries to “Our Blesséd Mother”.
As usual, during my exercise I Prayed my own Rosaries, but on this occasion the intentions weren’t being offered up for others, as was my usual practice, but this time it was for my own private intentions, namely that I was asking “Our Blesséd Mother” if She could give me the strength to both cope with and handle these dreadful feelings of Bitterness that I was feeling towards the Priest that so adamantly opposed me in carrying out the wishes of my Dear Friend, for her “Special” Mass.
As I walked along the “Bush Tracks” Praying my Rosaries, I was sincerely hoping that over the coming weeks and months my pain would be eased, and as these thoughts of Hope were running through my mind, the most extraordinary experience that I had ever experienced, enveloped my whole being as I felt this most wonderful feeling of “Joy” and “Peace” coming over me, and then through my Heart and simultaneously in my thoughts and in my mind, “Our Blesséd Mother”, totally “out of the blue”, and completely unexpectedly, “Spoke” to me. Not in an audible voice as one speaks to another in normal conversation, but through my thought processes and through my mind.
I could barely comprehend at that very moment, what in fact was happening and indeed what was taking place. What I most definitely can recall is wanting that wonderful feeling of Inner “Peace” and “Joy”, which was so overwhelming, to endure for an eternity.
This was the moment that “Our Blesséd Mother” first made “Personal” Contact with me, and the first time that She had “Revealed” Herself to me, by the way of a “Message” that She gave to me, which incredibly, was a “Direct” response to my Prayer intentions in Praying my Rosaries that night.
“Our Blesséd Mother” had for the first time offered me a “Direct” response to a Prayer intention, but not in a way that I had asked. In fact, “Our Blesséd Mother’s” response was immensely greater, than what I had requested.
In this first “Message” “Our Blesséd Mother” said;
“I will lift, from your Heart, the Bitterness that you are feeling for this Priest, totally and completely.”
And in that “instant”, a Total and Complete Calmness, came over me.
The Tension and feelings of Frustration, Anger and almost Hatred that had been weighing my heart down for all these weeks, had simply disappeared. The suddenness and most unexpected nature of this most Beautiful of experiences, completely threw my emotions into a wonderful spin of “Love” and “Contentment”, which although I could not understand, I did, nevertheless, want to continue for an eternity.
Then in what seemed to be only a short time after, “Our Blesséd Mother” continued, by saying;
“You (i.e.me) the ‘persecuted’, have to offer up, ‘every day’, from now on, a ‘Rosary’ for your Priest, the ‘persecutor’, and this, with Love in your heart for him.”
At first, I was almost stunned, but with this wonderful feeling of Peace and Contentment enveloping me, and not wishing to “Disobey” or let “Our Blesséd Mother” down, I quite happily accepted this request, and assured “Our Blesséd Mother”, that I would carry out Her wishes exactly as She had asked.
I can say, however, that this request, I feel, would be next to impossible for me to carry out, had “Our Blesséd Mother” not lifted the Deep Bitterness from my Heart.
Shortly after that “Our Blesséd Mother” then left me, although I still felt her presence around me.
I continued on with my exercises, immediately carrying out “Our Blesséd Mothers” request, by offering up my “First” Rosary, for this Priest, as She had asked of me, trying at the same time, to meditate on this most Beautiful experience.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, how many times have we read or heard read out in Church in the Gospels where Jesus Christ refers to, Loving our enemies, or those that hurt us, and yet here I was being confronted with that very situation and further more, being requested to do so, directly by “Our Blesséd Mother”, on this Her first “Revelation” to me, to carry out the very words of Jesus Christ, in the Gospels.
I can say in all honesty, those “Sacred” words from Jesus Christ, truly add a different Dimension, when called upon to exercise them in practice, as I have myself been called to do, and furthermore, called upon, by “Our Blesséd Mother” in Heaven.
However, I can truly say that, this was the most wonderful experience that I had ever felt in my life, to that day.
So wonderful an experience it was, that, even to this day, I cannot adequately describe to anyone the enormity of the transformation of emotions from Deep Bitterness to the most immense “Joy, Peace and Calmness” that took place within my Heart, except to perhaps describe it, as a “Divine Touch of Heavenly and Motherly Love”.
I pray, O Holy Mother of God, that those who choose to Read or Hear Your Messages, will receive them with Your Blessings, and that their Heart’s too, will be filled with Your Graces and Love.
