I am the Queen of Peace


Notes of meeting on 5 July 2016

A picture of Jesus filling up Mary's cloak with the gift of Peace which she brings to us and showers upon us. Then she spreads her cloak on the floor and gathers up all the prayers and returns them embellished by her tears to Jesus.
She says:
"I am the Queen of Peace let your hearts be still and open, let the Peace of my Son Jesus enter your hearts.
All around you is turmoil and flux, Satan roars loudly but with the gift of my Son's Peace you can stand firm and dismiss his wiles. Pray, fast, make sacrifice for others who don't know or even refute Him, for they will be without peace and so are open to attacks and with no armour.
My dearest Children your Mother loves all, but you must especially work hard now in prayer for your prayers will be magnified by my Son when I present them to Him and so many souls that would be lost will be saved.
Even in these critical times I am with you and continually intercede for you.
I bless you with my Motherly blessing in the Peace of Jesus my Son."

The gift of Peace which is received in our hearts is like a pebble thrown into the water  - its ripples extend outward from ourselves to our family, friends, colleagues and out into the wider world.

Mark 4 v 26-34
26 He also said, 'This is what the kingdom of God is like. A man scatters seed on the land.
27 Night and day, while he sleeps, when he is awake, the seed is sprouting and growing; how, he does not know.
28 Of its own accord the land produces first the shoot, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
29 And when the crop is ready, at once he starts to reap because the harvest has come.'
30 He also said, 'What can we say that the kingdom is like? What parable can we find for it?
31 It is like a mustard seed which, at the time of its sowing, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth.
32 Yet once it is sown it grows into the biggest shrub of them all and puts out big branches so that the birds of the air can shelter in its shade.'
33 Using many parables like these, he spoke the word to them, so far as they were capable of understanding it.
34 He would not speak to them except in parables, but he explained everything to his disciples when they were by themselves.

Pray pray my Children

Notes of meeting on 19 July 2016

Picture of Our Blessed Mother standing on top of the world her blue mantle over it. The fringe of her mantle covered England. Her hand was outstretched above her head in entreaty to the Father, her other hand was palm out toward the earth.
A shaft of brilliant light from beyond the heavens came down upon her and the earth, her lips were moving continuously in prayer.
She says:
"Pray pray my Children in these tumultuous times, aid your Mother with your prayers, let the light of heaven penetrate your hearts and then you will be at peace when all around you is in travail.
Your Mother cares for you, look to Jesus, do as He commands. All will be well if you pray with your heart and soul for love to overcome hate.
The victory is won, but Satan knows this and so is spreading hatred and confusion. Exchange this for love and prayer. Satan cannot conquer love, and love is my Son Jesus, arm yourselves with my Holy Rosary, go to my Son in the Eucharist as often as you are able.
My Children be at Peace.
I bless you with my motherly blessing."

Ephesians 6 v 10 - 20
10 Finally, grow strong in the Lord, with the strength of his power.
11 Put on the full armour of God so as to be able to resist the devil's tactics.
12 For it is not against human enemies that we have to struggle, but against the principalities and the ruling forces who are masters of the darkness in this world, the spirits of evil in the heavens.
13 That is why you must take up all God's armour, or you will not be able to put up any resistance on the evil day, or stand your ground even though you exert yourselves to the full.
14 So stand your ground, with truth a belt round your waist, and uprightness a breastplate,
15 wearing for shoes on your feet the eagerness to spread the gospel of peace
16 and always carrying the shield of faith so that you can use it to quench the burning arrows of the Evil One.
17 And then you must take salvation as your helmet and the sword of the Spirit, that is, the word of God.
18 In all your prayer and entreaty keep praying in the Spirit on every possible occasion. Never get tired of staying awake to pray for all God's holy people,
19 and pray for me to be given an opportunity to open my mouth and fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel
20 of which I am an ambassador in chains; pray that in proclaiming it I may speak as fearlessly as I ought to.
