Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father.  He says: “These days, life in the womb is no longer respected as it should be.  Consequently, motherhood is not respected as it should be.  Devotion to the Most Holy Mother* has diminished and not regarded with the love and respect as it was in days gone by.”

“So many favors and graces are lost due to this disregard for the Holy Mother and for the importance of the rosary.**  If souls do not understand the true depth of the graces which are attendant to the Holy Rosary, they lose direction on the path of personal holiness.  Like any mother, your Heavenly Mother longs to direct each one of Her children in the Way of Salvation.”

“When you invoke the intercession of the Blessed Mother, She bends towards earth with all the affection of an earthly mother and even more because Her love is perfect and pure.  She listens with heartfelt grace and consoles the afflicted while strengthening the discouraged heart.”

“I speak to you today concerning motherhood as the Holy Mother is too modest to ever focus on Herself.  She prays in every present moment for each of Her children, but saves extra special graces for those devoted to Her rosary.  Vacate worldly concerns and surrender them to the Holy Mother.”

Read Luke 2:6-7+

And while they were there, the time came for her to be delivered. And she gave birth to her first-born* son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

*2:7 first-born: A legal term linked with a son's social standing and rights of inheritance (Deut 21:15-17). It does not imply that Mary had other children after Jesus, only that she had none before him (CCC 500). As the only begotten One, Jesus is also the first-born Son of the Father (Jn 1:18; Col 1:15). See note on Mt 12:46.

** The purpose of the Rosary is to help keep in memory certain principal events in the history of our salvation. There are four sets of Mysteries that center on the events of Christ's life: Joyful, Sorrowful, Glorious and – added by Saint John Paul II in 2002 – the Luminous.  The Rosary is a Scripture-based prayer that begins with the Apostles' Creed; the Our Father, which introduces each mystery, is from the Gospels; and the first part of the Hail Mary prayer is the Archangel Gabriel’s words announcing Christ's birth and Elizabeth's greeting to Mary. St. Pius V officially added the second part of the Hail Mary.  The repetition in the Rosary is meant to lead one into restful and contemplative prayer related to each Mystery. The gentle repetition of the words helps us to enter into the silence of our hearts, where Christ's spirit dwells. The Rosary can be said privately or with a group.
