and Healing Prayer on March 2, 2019

   Praise the Lord! Praise the Blessed Mother! 

Nice to meet you. How have you been doing practicing ‘the Five Spiritualities’ for a month? Amen! Yes, if we practice ‘the Five Spiritualities’, any devil will run away. There are 12,420 different diseases. Nowadays I pray for your healing of all those diseases. If I pray, “Cure somebody’s something, or someone’s heart disease…” it is too much to recite all the diseases. And I don’t know in detail also.

During the prayers for the pilgrims, although I don’t know what kind of illness you’re suffering, I pray to the Lord, ‘If they have any of the 12,420 diseases, please cure them’ I pray for them while taking a bath and also while I’ve been cutting my hair. I also pray when I lied down, saying, ‘Oh, Jesus, many hairs have fallen off when I cut my hair. Just like the number of my hair, please save souls!’ Not only that, it’s been upgraded. ‘Please cure all the diseases as many as the number of my hairs.’ If you have any disease, I hope you all get well!

Sometimes it’s hard for me to suffer. But it’s the suffering that carries hope (for the conversion of sinners). All right, Dear pilgrims! Let’s offer up our pains graciously. Today our ‘planning director’ enlightened you quoting ‘the Word of God’ from Bible and ‘the Message of Love’ from Jesus and the Blessed Mother. You must have understood it very well. Right? So, I’d like to say we should meditate on ‘the Five Spiritualities’ regardless how trifle things are in our lives, not thinking whether “This situation corresponds to ‘My Fault’.” “That circumstance corresponds to ‘Prayer of Life.’” “This corresponds to ‘Amen.’” “That corresponds to ‘Offering Up’”, but we should meditate on them in our lives and practice them. Then, all of ‘the Five Spiritualities’ will be acted on completely in our lives. If we really lay down ourselves, Jesus and the Blessed Mother will do all for us. Do entrust yourself to Jesus and the Blessed Mother.

I departed for USA on March 19, 1990 and stayed at an American host’s house on March 21. Why did I stay at the American host’s house, and not Korean’s? In the assembly, I delivered the message for 2 agendas, ‘Abortion is murder’ and ‘Turning everything in our lives into prayer’. It was already published in all the newspaper reports before my speech. So, abortion supporters tried to do something to stop me from delivering the message. Abortion supporters hunted for me at hotels and at all Korean houses. We were hidden in an American’s house even though I can’t converse at all with the house owner in English.

Julio, who stayed a month there, told me, “We’re here to starve in USA.” No one served us a meal, even though they set the food on the table. This is because we do not eat unless we are invited to. There was a banana on the table. I was so hungry. I couldn’t control my eyes from focusing on the banana. But I couldn’t eat it because nobody invited us to eat it. The next day I wish they could even gesture us to eat, but they didn’t. As we stayed at a foreigner’s house without an interpreter, we were kept starving. I was used to starving, but my husband Julio was not.

I went to the bathroom in the house. It had warm water when I open the tap. Now, whatever happens, we should think, ‘Ah! My Lord means something to me by doing this!’ You should always think like this. When I take a shower, I wash my hair first. Everyone has different routine method of showering. I shampoo my hair first and then follow by other cleansing. But on that day, I showered with water first, then I applied soap all over my body. When I turn on the water, I couldn’t even get lukewarm water. It was completely cold.

‘Ah, He must have willed this for me.’ I had to wash away all the soapy water. If I had washed only my hair first, I could have just done that. In Pittsburgh, it’s as cold as Gangwon-do in Korea. But I don’t take a shower roughly. How cold it must have been to wash away every corner of my body thoroughly. Oh, but when I went into the room, I saw only a thin sheet on the bed. I thought I’d have a blanket if I opened the closet, but I couldn’t find any. No heating in the room. No heating pad on the bed. I was shivering in cold. How could I ever go to sleep covered with just a thin sheet?

‘Oh, I guess the Lord wants me to pray.’ I squatted, put on clothes covered with a sheet, and prayed all night. But then I started coughing. Wow, I never had suffered so much coughs in my whole life. Though I have asthma, I don’t cough like that. It didn’t stop even for a minute, or even a second. I continued coughing. Next morning, I talked to the owner about going to the hospital, but he said we couldn’t go. I don’t speak English, but I can understand easily. In Korea, we go to the hospital and pharmacy to get medicine at any time. But in the U.S., we couldn’t even get medicine. So nobody gave me any medicine. I had been like that since the 21st, and I delivered the Messages of Love on the 25th.

At that time, I went to Pittsburgh with permission from Archbishop Yoon Gong-hee. At that time, many priests, the religious and many people already witnessed many times of Tears and Tears of Blood of the Blessed Mother’s statue, and Archbishop Yoon Gong-hee said, “I believe in Tears and Tears of Blood shed by the Blessed Mother. And the Messages are also error-free. So now I’m going to wait for the fruit from it.” He said this at that time. So, I went to Pittsburgh with the Archbishop’s permission. At that time, the conference was at the Auditorium of ‘Duquesne University’ in Pittsburgh. About 100 priests, 200 nuns, and more than 7,000 believers gathered there. It was the first Marian Conference held and I was there.

You know ‘Bishop Danylak’, right? (Yes~) We met each other there for the first time. Bishop Danylak celebrated Mass at that time. There were 8 speakers for the event. 6 of them spoke on the 24th. What day is March 25th? It’s ‘Solemnity of Annunciation of the Lord’, isn’t it? The speakers were told not to exceed an hour per person’s allocation. It’s only an hour including the ‘Rosary prayer’. I spoke on the 25th. And they told me to speak as much as I want to. I didn’t even realize the time went by so quickly while I was talking. Some of you now do like this, but, on that day, 7 thousand and hundreds of people including the priests and the bishops were looking at me even without any movement. So I even didn’t realize how many hours had passed by.

The interpreter was a lady named Lucia. She said, “Oh, my leg hurts, and I can’t do it anymore. Stop it. I’m going to fall down.” So, I stopped, and it turned out that I delivered my speech for three hours and 40minutes. When I finished my speech, they said, “The Miracle of Miracles.” People in the U.S. can’t persevere anymore after 30 minutes and they just start moving around uneasily. But they sat there for more than 3 hours, and I received more than 10 standing ovations.

It was the first time also for them to give more than 10 standing ovations there. As I’ve never seen a standing ovation before, I was surprised when I received ten. When they were all standing up suddenly, I thought, ‘Did I do something wrong?’ Everyone clapped their hands and it ended up that way. Another miracle happened when People gathered from all over the U.S. They said, “It’s a miracle that Americans could tolerate and listen for so long without moving around.” And it’s a miracle that I’ve had more than 10 standing ovations. But I told you before that I had a bad cold and kept coughing all the time.

I was delirious with fever and fatigue. But I offered it up joyfully. Everyone, no matter how we suffer, we should offer it up joyfully. You should think, ‘There must be a great blessing by doing this.’ And not, ‘What can I do? I can’t.’ Let’s all do that. So I was extremely happy. ‘Jesus, if I don’t well enough there, it’s your will. And if I do well, it’s also yours. I only entrust my lips to you. There’s nothing more I can do. What can this sinner do? Lord, I belong to you even if I die, even if I live. Lord, let me fulfill your will.’ I entrusted myself to the Lord.

I got there at 7:40 a.m. and left at 4:00 p.m. There was a speaker, named Joseph from the Soviet Union. Aside from listening to his lecture, I had never had any break, including meal time. I was interviewed by TV broadcasting and the press. I was interviewed here and there. Therefore I couldn’t come out until 4 pm. But I didn’t cough at all until then. He healed me. We have to offer up ourselves beautifully no matter what happens. ‘Oh, why am I so sick? Lord, if You called me on here, why you don’t allow me to take a warm shower.’ Instead, ‘Oh, He must have willed this for me. There must be a lot of graces from it.’

So, when we give ourselves up and do the work of the Lord and the Blessed Mother, the Lord and the Blessed Mother will take care of us. We just have to lend ourselves and lend our lips. We are deficient. But, as the Lord and the Blessed Mother called us, we just entrust ourselves to them. Bishop Danylak celebrated the closing Mass and, I offered up white flowers in contemplation on ‘Joyful Mysteries’. Bishop Danylak offered up the golden roses tribute to ‘Glorious Mysteries’, while Joseph offered up red roses tribute to ‘Sorrowful Mysteries’.

After the Mass, we had an audience with the pilgrims. Suddenly, Joseph came to me and hugged me. I felt as if I was stabbed with a needle. So, when I looked at his face, it was just a beard. ‘Oh, give this soul a healing grace as much as it hurts.’

Later, I came to know that he was a cancer patient. Bishops and over 100 priests, 200 nuns and over 7,000 believers. All were united, and the Mass was solemn and filled with love. After the Mass, we had an audience with the bishop Danylak and priests on stage.

Bishop Danylak said, “Julia! It was so great!” And, other priests praised me also. Moreover, Br. Joseph held onto me and said, “Oh, I had seen so many people speaking before, but I’ve never seen anyone with such a powerful charisma like you.” He kept holding my hands tightly. I said, “No, no. If I have done something good, it is God who has done it. If I have done something wrong, it’s due to my fault.” They said, “Oh, Julia! You are too so modest. I respect and love priests, and I am sure of the Blessed Mother in Naju too.” That’s not done by someone’s charisma. It was done by Jesus and the Blessed Mother.

I didn’t have any time to rest that day. I’ve been busy with the interviews by TV stations and newspapers. The next day, the event was featured in the newspaper for two days. And they said it was reported in the New York Times, too. On March 31, I was notified by the White House that President Bush would like to meet me at the White House on April 5. Brother Joseph wanted to go to the White House with me, but in the White House, they only called me except Joseph. President Bush asked me to deliver messages to his most trusted secretaries and aides at a seminar for about an hour.

I delivered the messages for one and a half hours. Everyone loved it and said, “If you translate it into English quickly, we’ll put it in the library and will spread it all over the United States.” And President Bush signed a bill against abortion. It was done by the Blessed Mother. I was only used as a temporary instrument. Bishop Danylak invited me to Canada the following year, and he visited Naju many times since. On September 22, 1995, Bishop Danylak, Fr. Finn, and Fr. Jang celebrated Mass at the place of the current Adoration Chapel of Precious Blood. The Bishop saw in my mouth where the Eucharist turned into visible Flesh and Blood in the shape of Sacred Heart, moving alive.

But in 1998, the proclamation came out. Bishop Danylak was so upset that he said, “There are so many miraculous signs. How come they do this without an appropriate investigation?” He also saw the Eucharistic miracle. And he said, “How come they proclaim this without even investigating it?” He was so frustrated that he asked me to come to Canada. He said he will approve it in Canada. But, dear pilgrims! I did not choose a comfortable path. Instead, I chose together with you the path of martyrdom and suffering.

The sublime love of the Lord and the Blessed Mother in Naju should spread throughout the world, but couldn’t. I was so frustrated that I thought I’d do that. So, I did a Confession. ‘Oh, should I have gone to Canada and come back to Naju with a Canadian initiated Recognition of the Blessed Mother?’ But I never regret it. I chose a path of hardship with you, so I’m in front of you now. I’m really unworthy and an insignificant person, but I’ll go to heaven together with you, holding hands with each other and practicing ‘the Five Spiritualities’. So, no matter what hardship we have to go through, if we entrust ourselves entirely (to the Lord), we can go to heaven.

I told you about Brother Joseph from the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was a communist state. It does not allow believing in God. People who believe in God hide themselves in the mountains and pray under the trees. We have this freedom of faith. There are hardships of persecution in each of our parish church, but we can still meet here freely. You can be with the Lord and the Blessed Mother. But if they are known as believers, they are caught and will be in trouble. Then one day, Brother Joseph prayed with some believers in the mountains. Then he was caught and taken to the authorities, and he was subsequently put into a cold-storage warehouse on suspicion that he was leading a prayer group.

Even though the refrigerator was not turned on, you still would not survive because of insufficient oxygen, right? But he was put right in there and locked from the outside. So, three days later, people had to bring a stretcher to take his body out. They put aside the stretcher and opened the refrigerator door, and found Brother Joseph sitting inside. How could he survive there! It was the Blessed Mother who came in and blew her breath and oxygen on him.

There’s nothing Jesus and the Blessed Mother can’t do. Everyone, think about it. Can’t Jesus open the refrigerator door? Don’t you understand it? He protected him while following human laws. That’s why the Blessed Mother kept blowing Her breath and embraced him warming him in Her cloak, and therefore he survived. Everyone, even if you are persecuted and living in hard times, please offer them up beautifully. Then, on the last day, you can go to heaven. You shouldn’t think it’s hard, ‘Why would I go on a pilgrimage like this?’ If you turn your back, then I can’t help you.

If you are suffering for the Lord and the Blessed Mother in the midst of all your persecutions, what can’t the Lord and the Blessed Mother give to you? Even though the pain we receive now is difficult and painful, if only we live by the word of the Lord and the Blessed Mother, on the last day, we will be guided by angels in the cheers of the Saints to heaven, and enjoy eternal happiness next to Jesus and the Blessed Mother. There is no more death, no more hunger, no more pain, and we can enjoy eternal happiness. Let us enjoy eternal happiness there together. Amen!

If we deny ourselves and offer up ourselves beautifully, we can enjoy eternal happiness there. And formerly someone said, “Oh, I don’t know why a woman is so tired from undergoing her menstruation.” Then someone replied, “Oh, it’s because Eve picked the forbidden fruit.” You know, Eve took the forbidden fruit and Adam listened to her. And, then he made an excuse. Well, on the last day, we can eat the fruit of tree of life in heaven. Everyone, let’s accumulate merits in heaven.

Sister Vega’s testimony was posted today. 12 years ago, Sr. Vega came to Naju and someone gave her a Naju Scapular. The Korean pilgrim, who gave the Scapular to her 12 years ago, must be here now. But, at that time, as she was already wearing a rosary on her neck, she said, “Oh, I’ll wear it the next time.” The brown Scapular is small. So, it might have appeared trivial to her. So, she just put it in a drawer. Later, after reading the article about the Scapular of Naju, she realized the value of the Scapular. So, she wore the Scapular of Naju from then on, and the brown scapular brought a lot of miracles to her. A priest was greatly blessed with that brown Scapular. Scapulars have caused a lot of miracles all over the world.

So, when you do something good to anyone… If she had not given the Scapular to Sister Vega from Indonesia, such amazing miracles would not have happened. Through things that happen without our recognition, the tree of life can be filled with fruit. I talked about the pyramid before. I don’t know who gave it to her, but she was well rewarded with abundant merit. If someone, like Vega, accepts Naju, and also accepts Naju’s Messages, acknowledges the Blessed Mother in Naju, and is armed and practices ‘the Five Spiritualities,’ it must be the person who helped her to go heaven.

Not only did she guide Sister Vega to heaven, but many others too. It’s not like the network business in the secular world. It’s the heavenly network. So, we must guide people around us to heaven. So, if I give one thing that could be trivial, but that was the fruit of great love. So, don’t think it is trivial. When we do everything with love, there are many miracles in return.

Dear pilgrims, if we practice ‘the Five Spiritualities,’ all devils will be defeated. In 1978, I was pregnant with my fourth child.

That summer was really hot and we went through a drought. The water in the well dried up, so I had to go far out to the public well to wash the laundry. At that time, the old lady, who was the owner of the house saw the situation said, “You shouldn’t have worked far away from the house. Let’s dig a well near our house.” There was a well using the bucket. As the well dried up, we had to fetch water from the distant well instead. I replied, “That’s all right. It’s my job to do.” She insisted, “Don’t say that. Let’s dig the dried bottom of the well.”

So, I said, “Yes?” I was appalled. Because when I gave birth to my third child, I had lost a lot of blood. I even fainted and I couldn't get any I.V. or other proper treatment. I just suffered struggling with pains at home. As I think of those days now, I was so foolish, right? It’s because even though the hospital told me to do induced-delivery, and seeing my dangerous body condition, my mother-in-law said, “Never in the hospital.”

My father-in-law graduated from ‘Waseda University’ in Japan and my mother-in-law had been hospitalized in Tokyo before for one month not because she was in pain but to prepare to give birth to my husband, Julio.

But, she insisted, “No way. For delivery, never give birth in a hospital. The time of birth of baby is destined.” Until then, I had just been suffering in severe labor pains for two and a half months at home. I just went back home from Gwangju (under my mother-in-law’s order) with labor pains. Julio suggested to me to go to a hospital but I refused. Having going through one and a half month more, the oriental clinic also told me that I would not be able to give birth. But my mother cried and begged the pharmacist doctor to prescribe whatever medicine to save me, and he did. At last, the baby was born covered with the liquid medicine. I was almost dead at that time. After delivery of the third baby, I thought I really had to be careful for this forth month baby in my womb. But now, this old landlady was telling me to dig the bottom of the well. It was a very deep well.

The raised structure from the ground was about 1 meter tall. And 7 meters deep under the ground. The lady told me to hold the rope so that she would go down to the bottom and scoop the mud underground and put it into a bucket. So, I said, “Yes, let’s do it.” But when she looked down the deep bottom of the well, she shouted, “Oh! It’s so scary! I can’t!” And I replied, “Then, ma’am, I’ll do it,” So, I went down there. It was so hard and wide like this. I climbed down stepping on here, then, stepping down to the other side, holding here, then, here again. The extruded part of the wall of the well was too low to step on. They were not built strong enough to climb up or down.

Holding this little stone and stepping on another, I climbed down from the top to the bottom, step by step, that measured 8M high. When I reached the bottom, I just plunged into the mud. The bottom of the well became a swamp. After plunging into the cold mud, I said, “Ah!!! I’m sorry, my baby! I’m sorry, my baby!” The baby shouldn’t be exposed to that cold temperature. It was with much difficulty, that I managed to get out of the mud holding whatever I could on the wall. And then I scooped the mud into the bucket with my legs like this. (Stretched at the end of both side of the well) I filled half of the bucket and shouted to the lady. “It’s done!” And she replied, “I can’t see it well,” So I shouted again “It’s done!”, but she still couldn’t pull up, saying “I can’t see well.” So I shouted again “It’s done!”. But she still couldn’t pull up, saying “I can’t.” Then I reduced the quantity of mud lesser and lesser. The old lady still couldn’t lift it up.

I said, “Leave it then.” And I, who was pregnant, climbed up the well and pulled the bucket up with me. And then I went in the well again. After 20 repetitions, clear water then started breaking open repeatedly. I exclaimed in my heart, “I shall become clear water to provide pure water to people, instead of muddy water.” I climbed up again reminding myself that. The old lady was counting whenever I went in and out of the well, “one time!” “two times!” “three times!” “twenty times!” “thirty times!” Digging the bottom and putting the mud into the bucket, I climbed up and down repeatedly. The old lady shouted, “33 -Thirty-three times!” At that time, I didn’t know that Jesus’ life was 33 years. She said, “Let’s do just 2 more times.” It’s hard even once.

Actually I am the type of person who can do anything only if I want to. Now, though my body does not permit me willingly. But if I want to do anything, I will. (Returning to the story of well), I had done it in the well. After 33 times, my hands and feet were shriveled up. I thought I would fall down to the bottom of the well if I tried more. While I was thinking of that, I just fainted at that moment. Then old lady shook me to wake me up and said, “Oh, I’m sorry. I have made too many requests to you. Go in and take a rest. Go in.”

I washed and managed to go in and breast-feed my baby, and then I fell asleep, as I was very tired. I was not sure if I had fallen asleep or lost consciousness. After a while, the lady said, “Hey, dear lady! Water is coming out! Water’s coming out! Clear water! Just come out to see it!” So, I got up and came out to see. A man in the village came over and looked at it and said, “Oh, did you dug the well?” “Yes, this young lady dug it all up!” And he said, “When did she do it like this?” There was a mound of mud in the yard. If it were just dried ground, it would not have been so heavy. How heavy it must be. The swamp soil was highly piled up on the yard.

The man said, “It’s whole day’s job even for a vigorous young man. How come a skinny lady like she has done it in half a day?” “Yes, she did it!” “She’s as strong as Hercules! Ah... It was the work that even a big man can’t perform!” He was so surprised to see it. When I took a look into the well, there was abundant water in it. Dear all pilgrims! Just think of the muddy water while I was scooping out. As I dug the whole part of the bottom, the water was completely muddy. They said it would take days until the mud sink down to be clear. But in a matter of hours, it was purified into clear water.

And my baby was all right. He was very well. Nothing was wrong with him. The miracle of love occurs when we offer totally ourselves for others. Indeed, this story contains ‘the Five Spiritualities.’ When the old lady suggested to me to dig the well, I was really frightened because I was pregnant. But, I thought, ‘Yeah, I shall do it to practice love!’ Dear pilgrims! It is through this act of love, that the miracle of love takes place. (Amen!)

The time when I was in the eighth month of my pregnancy with my fourth child, my mother-in-law often came to me asking for money. So I used woodfire for cooking to save money. We already had three kids. My mother worked in all kinds of work assisting me to support my fifth brother-in-law to pass the bar exam. So I took care of all of my children. I often gathered dead leaves for fuel together with the old lady. We used those dried leaves and sometimes bought pine trees to use for fire.

In winter, if we bought pine trees in town area, the amount was so small like this. It’s also expensive. So I asked the old lady, who was the house owner where could I get firewood at a reasonable price. She informed me of a place 8 km away. I went there pulling a rear-car in my eighth-month pregnancy. I bought 10 bundles of trees from there. They’re gigantic in size and double the quantity compared to the portion sold in my town stores. The seller, the woodcutter said, “Can you take it all, young lady?” I said I could. “The rear-car is already full with 5 bundles,” And I replied, “It’s all right. I can take all the 10 bundles.”

The seller said, “Oh, my Goodness, it’s so nice of you.” He gave me a discount. He wanted to give one more additional free bundle. But as it was too heavy already, he said,” Instead of the free bundle, I will give you a price discount.” So, I replied, “That’s OK. I can take all.” Then he said he would give me a discount, including the free bundle saying, “You have a good tongue.” Dear pilgrims! There’s nothing wrong with having a good tongue. Let’s use a fine word. The wood seller said in again, “Pretty person, pretty tongue!” I loaded 11 bundles on the rear-car. It was so much. The rear-car was swaying but the wood seller tied the bundles tightly. I brought it home humming with joy.

‘Wow, if I bought it in the town, it couldn’t be so cheap.’ I was happy. Julio, my husband now heard this episode for the first time. I am not used to telling Julio about I don’t tell anything to Julio of my difficulties. Even when my mother-in-law so often asked me for money, I’ve never told him about it. Even though I’ve been so deadly poor like that, I’ve never complained or talked to him about it. When I released the bundles of trees at home, the old lady looked at them and shouted, “What did you do? Even five bundles are already too heavy, how come you managed to bring back so much of it?” “Yeah, I’m OK,” I replied.

The fully loaded trailer was swaying unsteadily. You would not figure out how packed it was. The trailer was already full to its capacity with 5 bundles. But, with 11 bundles of firewood, how overloaded would it be? Even subjecting to a slight tilt, the overloaded trailer would sway like this. It could have overturned. How happy I was with the mountain high of bundles. Such bundles at half the price. How can I not be happy?

Now, we’re living in better times than before. There were many people who were still starving. In our days, generation gap is conspicuous even between a one-year gap difference. Older generation lived in poverty. Thus, how happy I was (at that time) when I got many bundles of firewood at a cheap price. I could keep the room warm. I just broke into a smile humming at the same time.

If we are angry at anything, countless things can also make us angry. What if I thought. ‘Oh, why should I pull this heavy overloaded trailer in order to finance my brothers-in-law’s university studies, with my heavy body in my 8th month pregnancy, with other children to bring up?’ Thinking like that could make me angry. But, if I say, ‘Wow, I bought good firewood with a such a good price!’ then, it would make me hum. There’s no reason to get angry.

And if the baby ate something wrong, it’s right to say, “Oh, it’s really my fault. I did something wrong.” But, if you say in your angry voice, “Why did you touch this? Why did you do that?” Then it’s your lost. That’s why ‘the Five Spiritualities’ are important. Hitting my chest, “I’m sorry, dear baby.” While climbing down into the well, “Oh dear my baby (in my womb)! We are practicing love. Let’s offer it up.” “I’m sorry. Please bear with it, be patient and offer it up.” I think I heard the baby’s response at that time. “Yes, Mommy.”

I had many dangerous moments during my pregnancy with my youngest child. But the youngest child was born easily in spite of it. I had suffered so much delivery pain when giving a birth to my third child, so I went to a university hospital this time. My mother and aunt came to see me while I was in labor. Unlike today, in those days, they could look inside of the delivery room through the window. While I was in labor, I said to them through the window, “Don’t worry!” And the nurses said, “I’ve never seen a person like you.”

No matter how painful it is and even if undergoing the pangs of childbirth, it depends on how well or graciously we try to offer it up, and we could practice more the “offering up”. If you think, ‘I can’t offer it up, because I am sick’, then there is no answer. We must enjoy heaven by graciously offering up all those pains. If we arm ourselves with ‘the Five Spiritualities,’ we can go to heaven. But if you turn coward over little obstacles saying, “How can I do that?”, heaven seems a thousand miles away.

Running on top of a treadmill, the first 10 minutes are hard. If you plan by saying, ‘I will do it for an hour today,’ then an hour seems quite long. If you say instead, ‘Oh, I shall do it for at least 10 minutes.’ After 10 minutes, ‘OK, let me do two more minutes.’ Again, ‘Three more minutes.’ ‘Five more minutes.’ Half an hour goes by easily. That’s how you can fulfill, finally, an hour.

When you walk up a high mountain track, if you look up the high path only, the track is steep and high. It’s hard to get the top. But, it’s easy if you walk up by looking down on the ground. Don’t walk by looking up to the destination. While you climb a mountain looking down to the ground, you will not be aware whether the road is steep or not. And if you stop and turn around, you will realize that you’re already on high ground. So, let’s not think that it is difficult to practice ‘the Five Spiritualities’. Let’s do it one by one.

If anything seems to be insignificant, let’s not overlook it and offer up everything beautifully by ‘Semchigo.’ As I’ve always said, I think we can go to heaven only by practicing ‘Semchigo’. The idea is always in my mind. Let’s do everything in the spirit of “Semchigo.” When I was severely assaulted, ‘I assumed it “Semchigo : I am being loved now.”’ When someone orders me to do too much work, I will not think, ‘Oh, I’m so tired. Why should I do only work?’ Instead, it’s better to think, ‘He might think that I am capable of accomplishing it.’ If you can do this with ‘the Five Spiritualities,’ Heaven is with you.

Let us dedicate the rest of our lives to the Lord and the Blessed Mother, which seems long if we think it is, short if we think so, too. and start anew at this moment. Even if you’ve been living the wrong way, you can start with new way now. Let’s all start anew. Amen! Thank you!

Let’s meditate on the Message of Love from Jesus and the Blessed Mother.

Let us meditate on what Jesus and the Blessed Mother say to us today. And let us meditate well on what Jesus and the Blessed Mother say to us today, not just pondering in our heads but also in our hearts, and practice it.

This is the Message of Love from Jesus on March 1, 2008.

“My beloved children! Those who obstruct the truths and spread errors will surely beat their breasts and wail on the last day, but, if you put into practice the Messages of Love that I and My Mother have given you, arm yourselves by turning everything in your life into a prayer, and gracefully offer it up, you will not only enjoy eternal happiness in the next world but receive everything in this world as well.” Amen!

This is the Message of Love from the Blessed Mother on March 10, 2011.

“All My beloved children! You who follow My Son Jesus and Me should not worry but display the power of love more vigorously and work heroically and most loyally. If you, who have been called as My true sons and daughters, only do not turn your backs, you will be protected and guarded in My Son Jesus and My mantle regardless of what calamities of nature may occur and, on the last day, will be escorted by the angels into Heaven, which is the Kingdom of the Lord filled only with joy, love, and peace, and will enjoy eternal happiness.”

Amen! May the Messages of Love from Jesus and the Blessed Mother be realized to all of you as proclaimed.

Close your eyes, and leave yourself entirely to the Lord and to the Blessed Mother. All of my affliction, distress, sorrow, disease. Even though we do not know which particular disease among those 12,420 is now with us, the Lord will heal us when we offer up all the sufferings beautifully and entrust them to the Lord.

Though we are unworthy and weak, the Lord has personally called and chose us. Thus, as children who are called, may our lives change and become instruments working toward the glory of the Lord.

Lord, we’ve been subjected to a lot of hurts in this secular world. Please heal all our wounds today. We’re going to start anew today. (Amen!) Even if anyone afflicts us, please implant in our mind with Semchigo, regarding as if we are loved by them and help us to offer it up graciously. And teach us how to remain silent.

Jesus, lead us to say only what we must say and not to say anything that is unnecessary. Bless our lips and tongues forever. Jesus, reach out to us with Your almighty hands that You alone have, Your hands of divine power, and lay them upon each of us. For every single cell of ours, from head to toe, please perform surgery on us with the power of Holy Spirit.

Jesus, what can you not do? Not only during the time while You were on earth, but also today, when the dead are raised, the dying survives, and the sick are cured (in Naju) During the time of Jesus, Jairus’ daughter was raised, the widow’s son was raised, and dead Lazarus was raised to life. Lazarus had been dead and smelled rotted for a few days already, but when Jesus said this, “Lazarus, come out!” Lazarus came out of the tomb, with tied hands and feet bound with burial bands. Jesus, please give us your one word, “My beloved sons and daughters, be healed!” (Amen!)

Jesus, work miracles on all these children, the miracle of love that cured me. Make us Your instruments to give even minimum help and consolation to You, thus perform Your miracle of love, using us as Your instruments. Thus, may the Lord be honored, and the Blessed Mother be comforted and all of us be thankful unceasingly.
