Enriched by prayer

The one who received the seed in rich soil is the man who hears the word and understands it; he is the one who yields a harvest and produces now a hundredfold, now sixty, now thirty.  
Matthew 13 : 23

Dear children! May this time be a time of personal prayer for you, so that the seed of faith may grow in your hearts; and may it grow into a joyful witness to others. I am with you and I desire to inspire you all: grow and rejoice in the Lord who has created you. Thank you for having responded to my call. Medjugorje message,

Dear children! Today I pray for you and with you that the Holy Spirit may help you and increase your faith, so that you may accept even more the messages that I am giving you here in this holy place. Little children, comprehend that this is a time of grace for each of you; and with me, little children, you are secure. I desire to lead you all on the way of holiness. Live my messages and put into life every word that I am giving you. May they be precious to you because they come from heaven. Thank you for having responded to my call.  Medjugorje message, June 25, 2002

Apparition Hill is just a mound of rocks and thorn bushes that occasionally allows a small tree or shrub to blossom and bear fruit. And yet it is covered in rich soil, represented by the hearts of the pilgrims that daily ascend the rough ground to visit the site where Our Lady first appeared at Medjugorje – hearts that are changed through prayer and reconciliation; hearts that have become open to receive the Word.
