Praise Jesus! Praise the Blessed Mother!

I’m happy to meet you. I’m a shameful sinner who really doesn’t deserve to be standing here, but following the Will of the Lord, I am standing here now. Even though I am unworthy and trivial, dear pilgrims, let us share love together.

In Matthew 25:14-30, when the master was going on a journey, he gave one of his servant five talents, to the other with two, and another with one, so they would upkeep on his behalf. As a result, the servant who had received five talents went out and made another five. And the one who had received two talents made another two. But the one who had received one decided to bury his in the ground.

Finally the master came back to settle his accounts with them. The one who had received five talents said “See, when you were not here, I made five more talents.” Then what did the master say? He said, “Well done, my good and faithful servant”, didn’t he? He continued, “Since you were faithful in small matters, I will give you greater responsibilities. Come, share your master’s joy.”

The one who had received two said the same words. “See, master, you gave me two talents. I have made two more.” But the one who had received one gave it back to his master saying, “Master, I knew you were a demanding person, harvesting where you did not sow. So out of fear I went off and buried your talent in the ground. See, here it is.” and he put out one as it is.

Then what did the master say? “You wicked, lazy servant. Take the talent from him and give it to the one with ten. And throw this servant outside into the darkness.” Then he will be wailing there with regret, isn’t it? So, we must meditate on this everyday. Whatever talents the Lord and the Blessed Mother gave us, even if we received five talents, it is useless if we bury them in the ground. And if They gave us only one, we can still multiply it to 10 million.

How can we do that? By delivering the love of Jesus and the Blessed Mother to others. If we help many people, who are heading to hell, making them realize the love of Jesus and the Blessed Mother, and help them to inherit Heaven, we can multiply 1 talent into 10,000 talents. Then what would Our Lord, the Master, say? “You are my good servant! Since you were faithful in small matters, you will experience joy, love, and peace with me in Heaven on the last day.”

Dear pilgrims, this also applies to you. If you are being persecuted and come to Naju in secret, without anyone knowing, even if you are healed of cancers or receive abundant graces and keep it to yourself, without giving testimony, thinking ‘Nobody should know me, even my name.’ Then will Our Lord, the Master, be happy with this? (No!) No, He won’t, right? (Right!) Then, testify the Lord bravely.

Even though you received one talent, you too can give 10 million talents in this way back to the Lord. In order to bear many fruits with diligence, let us offer up completely to the Lord, Our Master. Before the declaration (issued by Gwangju diocese), and ‘PD Notebook’, many people came to Naju and received abundant graces.

There are so many people who recovered from fatal situations. And even a person was truly raised from the dead. Nevertheless, being afraid and frightened, (of persecution) they denied Naju and ended up slandering Naju even until today. Will those people who are in darkness be able to gain Heaven on the last day? (No.) Then you must not go that way, right? (Right!) Nobody here will beat their chests and wail on the last day. That’s the reason you are here.

We have to practice love. To practice love, what must we do? To defeat the devil of division, we must arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities. But there are too many people who are not arming themselves with the Five Spiritualities. Until you are heard before the throne in Heaven, try saying again, “I’ll make a new start!” (I’ll make a new start!) I’ll make a new start! I’ll become a flower of consolation!(I’ll become a flower of consolation!) Amen! (Amen!) Yes, it was resounded to the throne of Heaven and God heard this today.

Therefore, we must fulfill what we promised as it is. We must fulfill our promises to God. So whether it is small or big, we fully entrust everything to the Lord, through the Blessed Mother we have to go to Heaven on the last day. The condition of this world is decayed even to the point of extremity beyond pitch darkness that we can’t see with our open eyes. It is so devastating beyond description verbally.

On last previous Good Friday, I suffered from pains of the crown of thorn and fell down entering into ecstasy, and I saw the world filled with darkness. It was really pitched-dark. However, a ray of light was radiating brightly to the very Blessed Mother’s Mountain in Naju and flowed outward to all of you. Dear pilgrims, may you receive that light today also!

However, Jesus said to me, “I will not waste even one drop of your sweat.” In the past I prayed for that many times. ‘Please don’t let even one drop of this flowing sweat of mine be in vain and let it overflow into the pilgrims as graces. Please change it into Our Lord’s Precious Blood from His Five Wounds, His Wounds made by the Crown of Thorns, and His burning Sacred Heart, the Tears and Tears of Blood of the Blessed Mother, and the Milk that She fed Baby Jesus with, and have mercy on all the pilgrims.’

Maybe I have sweated like that for the past 20 years. One day, I came and stood here but broke into sweat and said ‘Jesus, because I’m sweating too much, I’m embarrassed to be seen by people. Wouldn’t you make me sweat a lot whenever I’m alone but not openly in front of the people? But do as Your will. So Jesus, please use every drop of this sweat and let it not be in vain.’ Then, (on Good Friday), Jesus said, “Yes, I will not waste even one drop of your sweat.” He promised that to me.

On that day, I gave the cotton soaked with Golden Fragrant Oil to the priests. I also gave it to Anna from Indonesia. She came here with a walking stick, due to pain in her legs. Her back became bent, and for 7 months, she couldn’t even lift up her arms. Even before placing the cotton on her injuries, as soon as she received that special cotton, those who were here on Holy Triduum saw her, she even jumped up! Her arm which had not been lifted up was completely healed.

Peter Kim had something like shingles on his groin. He applied the sign. He was healed after he applied it just once. It is not easy to be cured of the shingles. His toe hurt so whenever he got hurt just a little, he felt painful and it’s been 20 years. He applied the sign twice on the area, and was completely healed. David (her grandson) had suffered from 39.8˚C fever and was brought to the hospital.

The doctor said, “He caught influenza. Go quickly to Gwangju to hospitalize him there.” He was completely healed in the evening after applying the sign.

Our volunteer, please stand up.

Volunteer (Mrs. Kang) : One day when I was sleeping, my heart was beating irregularly. It is called palpitations. ‘Oh my, will I die?’ It was beating severely. However, at that moment, I was reminded of the towel, which was soaked with her (Julia’s) body fluid. As soon as I put it over my chest, it became calm and fine. Since then I haven’t had irregular heartbeats anymore. I was completely healed.

Julia Kim : She said she felt like dying and couldn’t even move to get the towel. But as she felt that she was dying, she desperately grabbed the towel and put it on her heart. It was for sure a heart disease. Yet she was completely healed. It means that the Lord grants all our earnest requests.

Dear pilgrims, how should we pray the rosary? How many decades we offer is not important. We should pray the rosary with our utmost sincerity.

When praying the rosary, most people, as soon as they finish reciting the mystery, begin with “Our Father...” right away, don’t they? That’s not the way. For example, we meditate on the 5th decade of the joyful mystery, “Let us meditate the finding Jesus in the Temple.”

If your health has become worse, we can pray, ‘Jesus, my health has turned for the worst now, let my health recover again.’ Or, ‘Let my mother’s health recover, my son’s, my husband’s, my wife’s, our priest’s...’ There are many to pray! How good this kind of meditation is!

After meditation, then we can begin reciting the rosary. “The 3rd glorious mystery, let us meditate on the descent of the Holy Spirit.” Not beginning with “Our Father” right away, but meditate like this first, ‘Jesus, let me, unworthy one, be filled with the wisdom, the discernment and the knowledge of the Holy Spirit, so that I may offer up my whole life for Jesus, and not for myself.’ This is an example for us to practice.

With “Let us meditate on the descent of the Holy Spirit”, we can pray ‘Jesus, let the Holy Spirit descend upon us fully so that we can be cured by the Holy Spirit, from head to toe without any single exception. By doing so, let us give the glory to the Lord, comfort to the Blessed Mother, and never cease in giving thanks to You.’

Also, on the 5th glorious mystery, we can pray ‘Jesus, You put a Heavenly Crown on the Blessed Mother. Please also put a Heavenly Crown on the Blessed Mother of Naju (recognition by Church) quickly so that all the children in this world may be saved, through the official recognition of the Blessed Mother of Naju as soon as possible. By doing so, let us give the glory to the Lord, comfort the Blessed Mother, and never cease in giving thanks to You.’  We can meditate on many things.

“The 3rd sorrowful mystery, let us meditate on the crowning with thorns.” Then we can pray like this, ‘Jesus, for my sake, You shed the Precious Blood from the Crown of Thorns. Please transfuse It onto my head. With Your Precious Blood transfused, clean my body and soul, which are sick and worn out, wash them and unclog the parts that are blocked so that I may work, with a healthy body and soul, for the Glory of the Lord and the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Mother.’ How many prayers we can offer up!

The fifth sorrowful Mystery is about… Jesus, for our sake, was nailed on the cross, died on it, and was buried, right? Then we can meditate: ‘Jesus, for my sake, You were nailed on the cross, died on it, and were buried, but You rose again from the dead after three days.

Jesus, for my sake, You poured out to the last drop of Your Water and Blood on the Cross. Please transfuse It to me, without leaving any drop of Your Water and Blood and let the Holy Spirit heal me, without exception of any single cell from the top of my head to toe.

So let me do your work, with a healthy soul and body, for the Glory of the Lord and the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Mother. By doing so, let us give the glory to the Lord, comfort the Blessed Mother, and never cease in giving thanks to You.’ Not for ourselves,

But for our Lord and the Blessed Mother! When we practice Love in our family, it should be for the Lord and the Blessed Mother. Therefore, we should not be upset and hate others because of petty matters. If we continue to arm ourselves with love, the devils of division who fill the sky and earth will run away.

To divide and lead us to fall into the bottomless pit, the devils of division would resort to all kinds of methods. But they just leave those lukewarm people as they are. For the eagerly faithful ones, or those who are very much loved by the Lord and the Blessed Mother, in order to make them feel upset continuously, the devils of division play one side against the other.

Whatever makes us upset is the work of the devils of division We should be fully aware of this. So we should repel the devils of division. What do we need to repel them? (Love!) Any devil flees from love. Any devil runs away from love. Do you understand that? (Yes!) Then let us always practice love.

I will bring you an example story. On the 100th day after Andrew’s death, the parish priest offered up Mass for him After that, we shared some food together. when I went outside to send the pastor off, I saw Rufino bringing disabled man with him. He knows I love poor people. So he brought in the old man called Francis, “Julia, Julia! I’ve brought this man as you are always glad to receive him. Is it okay for you?” “Oh, thank you for bringing him to me.” Later, he turned out to be Jesus. The pitiable people I met were all Jesus and the Blessed Mother.

On March 13, 1990, it was Lenten season at the time. While I was in extreme pain, meditating on the passion of Jesus Christ on the cross, I was crying, and struggling in pain At the moment, Martha who lived at Su-gang apt rushed to me urgently and said, “Sister, sister! There is a person who is covered with blood at the front gate of Su-gang apartment. I bring this news to you as you are always happy to help.”

But I couldn’t raise myself up, so I said, “Please help me to get up.” I barely got up with other’s assistance. As I think of him who collapsed, covered with blood, there was no time for me to hesitate. Dear pilgrims, when I practice love, I forget my own pains. As if I wasn’t sick at all, I ran over there desperately.

When I reached him, the apartment front gate was already covered in blood. His head was burst open, and broken. Indeed he looked dead, so I was in shock and prayed. He suddenly opened his eyes, saying “Oh my! Ma’am, you are like an angel!” and he fell into a state of coma again. There was no 911 at that time.

Not only was he covered in blood, but with his own excrement as well and in total drunken stupor. The odor of his excrement really stank, so I couldn’t carry him in a taxi. So I called Julio who was at work, because I couldn’t do it by myself. I seldom called him when he was at work though. It was not enough with just Julio. Since Andrew also had a car, I also called him and Rufino.

After covering the inside of the car with vinyl, four people carried him into the car and drove him to the hospital nearby. Can you imagine how much blood he bled if the front gate was covered with his blood? So he went into a coma. Do you think he could ever survive? In human thoughts, he can’t survive. But I believed that the Lord would do it. With complete trust!

His head had 37 stitches. The doctor said, “We gave him first aid. But he’s in critical danger. Bring him to a bigger hospital quickly.” So we brought him to Naju General Hospital. Then the people there held their noses and avoided going near him. Someone there even moved to another hospital because his odor was so repulsive. After taking off his clothes, I washed him including the private part.

Someone asked me, “How could you wash that part?” I was young at that time, in my 30s. I answered, “Does it matter? It’s the same as a finger. If we live with hiding our finger inside, then we will feel ashamed of taking it out. It’s the same with a finger.” I wiped his bloodstained body together with Julio.

The doctors didn’t even want to treat him, saying “As he’s already bleeding too much and since there is no possibility for him to survive, get him out quickly.” They asked us to take him back home, not to a bigger hospital. (They said it would be better to treat someone who can survive rather than one who will surely die)

So I prayed for him there and wiped his blood and washed him. Then the people around us complained, saying “Get him out quickly” because he stinks!” The nurses and doctors also echoed this. But when I finished washing him and put new clothes on him, he woke up from his coma.

And he called me again, “Angelic lady”. At first, I thought he called me unintentionally. But I remembered I frequently used to visit an old blind man called Mr. Bong and bring him food. I would visit at night to avoid others’ eyes and judgment. And the other man, who had no place to stay, would sleep at the old blind man’s house sometimes. He was the same man in a coma.

During those times, he would see me (visiting Mr. Bong). So he called me, “Angelic lady”. Without taking any lunch and dinner, I ran around place to place and took care of him. Because of my desire to save him, I would even forget to eat. As I practiced love for others, even after skipping 3 days of meals, I wouldn’t feel hungry. This was because of the joy that filled me fully, and so, I didn’t feel hungry at all.

It happened at around 10am. By the time we were out of the hospital, it was already 11pm. There were no 24-hour restaurants in those days unlike now. But I said, “Let’s go and eat!” My husband, Rufino and Andrew were all astounded, saying, “How can we feed this dying person?” When I prayed, ‘Jesus, please save this poor old man.’ He answered me, “How can secular people even dare to understand your love? I am always with you.” So I believed Jesus would surely save him.

So believing he can eat food, we wandered from place to place looking for restaurants, but still failed. We went even as far as Hampyeong county. Finally, we found a place still serving meals. People around us said, “Like a proverb, ‘the ghost looks brighter as he died after a good meal.’ It’s good if he can eat.”

He devoured stir-fried pork made for four people and also ate two additional bowls of rice. How much he ate the meat cooked for 4 people!!!

I felt so joyful seeing him eat bite after bite continuously, ‘Jesus, change this food into the Precious Blood from Your Five Stigmata and your Wounds made by the Crown of Thorns, and Your burning Sacred Heart, and turn it into the Tears, Tears of Blood, Fragrant Oil, from the Blessed Mother and the very Mother’s Milk that She nourished You, to make the food into a wondrous medicine to heal the body and soul of this poor man.’  I believed it would be done.

He could have met his death at any moment because of the profuse bleeding. The doctor said “I cannot guarantee his life.” He had yet to receive a blood transfusion. I just fed him. I had to take care of him in any case, so I stayed at the next room that night. I didn’t sleep at all and I got up continuously opening the door to see if his situation was worsening. I listened to his breathing and checked his pulse. He was sleeping very well.

On the next morning, I knocked on the door and entered. He looked very well sitting on the bed. So I asked, “Are you okay?” He looked amazed, “Am I in Heaven now after dying? I’ve never been clothed so well like this, or have ever stayed in a pleasant room as this one. Am I not in Heaven now?” And he said he was pinching himself to check if it’s for real. So I told him what happened to him.

On the next day, Martha visited us and she was surprised to see this old man alive, saying “Oh, he is still alive! This is God’s work!” Indeed, his condition was totally hopeless with no chance of survival. Then she continued. When she saw him covered with blood, she wiped it away, and went to the store to buy some tissue paper.

But the store clerk said, “Even the policemen disregarded him and given him up for dead when they saw him covered in blood. So what on earth are you buying tissues for?” He said this sarcastically. So Martha never expected that he would survive. She said “I knew well how much you(Julia) love poor people, So I referred him to you.” When she saw him alive at my house, she exclaimed amazingly, “Again I witnessed the Power of God.”

I asked him, “No pain on your head? He replied, “Never!” Actually, his head was sewn with 37 stitches. To stitch his head, his hair was shaved and gauzes were attached with adhesive plasters. But all these disappeared! As I looked at the stitched area, there were no visible marks. Even the adhesive plaster and gauze were all gone! I was so amazed. He was restored to health perfectly. An impossible phenomenon had just happened! He stayed with us for a few more days.

And in order to rent a room to accommodate him and to buy him some equipment for plastering, I consulted with Julio and went to source a room for him. We found a room and made a contract with the owner. But when we took him to the owner, the owner asked, “Ah, is this for him?” and returned the deposit to us right away, saying that a drunkard would not be accepted. It was the same in several places. ‘Ah, maybe we can’t, since he’s well-known as a drunkard. Then we thought to try the countryside instead. We went to a more rural place instead of Sin-gwang-ri.

Although I received a lease with the owners, when I brought him, they returned the deposit, saying “Oh, that drunkard man cannot stay here.” I thought, ‘This might be impossible…’ Now, there are 2 guest rooms, Grace Room and Blessing Room, in the Chapel. We made those rooms at that time. Since he was not accepted anywhere, we made the rooms afterwards at the Chapel, and he began to stay there. It was in March of that year. And later, in September, while I was praying and holding his hands in front of the statue of the Blessed Mother, received a message to come home quickly.

When I went home, my husband was talking with some very neat gentlemen. He said, “Julia! These are the brothers of the old man (plasterer).” I was astonished! They looked so nice. When he (the old man) had nowhere to go, he lived in a storeroom of an apartment and he even almost died of bleeding.

As I listened to their talk, I learned that because of the man’s addiction to alcohol, even his family abandoned him. He had a wife and children, and they lived not too far away from our Blessed Mother’s House in Gyo-dong. It was right next to Gyo-dong! But here, he (the old man) changed like a gentle lamb!

They had witnessed his change for some time. As his children and wife dared not to take him back, his brothers came to us instead. The good-looking gentlemen made a deep bow saying to us, “Thank you so much. He was such a drunkard that even our family couldn’t take care of him. But you changed him into a mild lamb.

We really appreciate it.” They didn’t say, “We will take him,” but instead, “As you transformed him into such a good person, may we now bring him back to us?” “Of course, you can!” What good news it was! They may be living a life of happy and holy family even now.

Throughout my life, did I think ‘If I do good things, God will bring me to Heaven?’ I’ve never thought this way. I do as much as I can do. I reach as far as I can, go forward as much as I can, offer up sacrifices as much as I can, and do reparations as much as I can. I offer up completely.

Now, ‘If I do these good deeds, will Our Lord be glad?’  I don’t even think this way; I just do. Then, what is the result? Although we feel a bit troubled and hardened, if we deliver love, everything can be recovered to normal.

I told you about ‘the Parable of the Talents’ today, right? Our Lord gives us His Words. But, depending on how much we live them out, just one Word can multiply ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand and millions folds. We can continue to multiply more.

As long as we open our hearts and are willing to do it, then we can do it. Because people won’t open their hearts, complain on trivial things, or live for their own comfort, compromising themselves to the secular world, these people will not enter Heaven.

But by following the Lord and the Blessed Mother and participating in Their sufferings, even a little, you offered up the Stations of the Cross today. Jesus invites you, but if you don’t respond, it’s no use. While other people enjoy their comfortable vacation and rest, you responded to the invitation of the Lord and the Blessed Mother, and walked the Way of the Cross. Our Lord forgives even the most wicked sinners.

Therefore, as you walk along the way of suffering with Jesus, participating in His Passion, what would He not lay down for all of you in return? Receive the abundant grace today! Our Lord and the Blessed Mother love you so much!

Love, love, Love in the morning, Love in the noontime, Love, love, Love when the sun goes down

Alleluia! Alleluia! I also won the victory! Alleluia! Alleluia! We all won the victory! Amen! Let us all win the victory! Thank you !

Now, today also, Jesus and the Blessed Mother have given to us these Messages. Meditate on them by putting your hands on your chests.

Jesus gave us the Message of Love on May 6, 2005.

“My little souls whom I love extremely! Even most of the clergy who have been specially called, that claim to make me known, are being shaken like a boat that is tossed in all directions by the winds, and they turn their faces away from the truth.

But, please remember that the Heavenly Kingdom does not belong to them, who turn their faces away from me, but it belongs to you who work for me. Even if Satan appears to have successfully brought about ruin, I will always be with you through my invisible presence. Do not hesitate or have any fear but go forward courageously and make known the most sublime and purest love of my Mother and me.” Amen!

This is the Message of Love from the Blessed Mother on May 6, 2006.

“My beloved children who have been specially called and have responded with ‘Amen’! Do not worry about anything or even hesitate, but do your best in practicing and spreading the Messages of Love which this Mommy, who loves you so much, has given you through the little soul who was chosen by me.

Then, the light of love from my Son Jesus and I will shine brightly upon you, and you will inherit the tree of eternal life on the last day.” Amen!

May the Messages of Love from the Lord and the Blessed Mother be realized in all of you.

Close your eyes, and convey your heart to Jesus. If we rush to Jesus through the Blessed Mother, it is the very shortcut to Jesus. How hardened our hearts have been so far. Whether we opened the door of our hearts widely to accept the Lord.

Such as in the parable of Talent, when we received the Five talents, whether we gave Five more talents to Jesus, our Master, or whether we buried it in the ground, let’s meditate on these parables. And let us ask the Lord and the Blessed Mother to forgive our wrongdoings.

While you were following and making the Lord and the Blessed Mother known, you were persecuted, and where you’ve been hurt, today, at this moment, lay it all down before Jesus.

Jesus will heal your wounds. For all our wounds, either inflicted by the Church or by our family, when we follow the Blessed Mother of Naju, we ask You to heal all these wounds, today!

No matter how much we suffer and get weary, when we lay ourselves down completely to the Lord and the Blessed Mother, and follow Them with the spirit of martyrdom, Our Lord and the Blessed Mother will guide you even through the dark maze.

Our Lord will certainly rebuild the places destroyed by Satan for you to win the victory.

Our wounded heart, saddened heart, exhausted heart, and our pleased heart, even joyful heart, let us lay them all down to the Lord and the Blessed Mother. How much Our Lord was troubled, in order to transform us, the rough rocks, into beautiful rounded jades! Now, in order to become not only jades but also flowers of consolation, which is Jesus’ most favorite, we must entrust ourselves to You.

Now, we completely entrust all our pains, to the Lord and the Blessed Mother. This decaying world, more severe than at the time of Sodom and Gomorrah, the time of Noah’s Deluge, and the time of the tower of Babel, has become even more wicked and deserves chastisement.

But unto this world, Jesus, You, as a light, came to the Blessed Mother’s Mountain in Naju. Your children, who are gathered here, without exception, including the families of Your beloved children here, I ardently wish You to heal them completely. Stretch Your almighty powerful Hands which are Yours’ alone, and bless all these children from their heads to toes, and heal them. Also, pull out all the dirty things, and the bad habits cleanly from them.

So that, for the rest of our lives, with a healthy soul and body, we can work for the glory of the Lord and the Triumph of the Heart of the Blessed Mother through Your infinite blessing. We pray for this earnestly. Many souls have turned away after receiving so many graces here. But please bless them also so that they may return to the arms of the Lord and the Blessed Mother and be saved. Grant this amazing grace! Thus, Glory to the Lord and consolation to the Blessed Mother, in our unending gratitude.

Lord, who knows all this sinner’s sorrows Please wash away my wounded past with Your Precious Blood Embrace me, this wandering sinner You are the only One on whom I rely

Father of this sinner, who was wandering in agony, Jesus and the Blessed Mother have called me I approach Jesus with the Love of the Blessed Mother, shedding tears of repentance, I wish to be healed

I’m a sinner, but I didn’t realize myself a sinner but now, in the Spiritualty of accepting everything as my fault, I will console the aching Hearts of the Lord and the Blessed Mother I will lead a life of resurrection by practicing heroic love. Amen.
