Message from OUR LADY OF HOPE

To THE WORLD

March 24, 2005 through Chris Courtis, a visionary in Maryland, U.S.A.

Praised be Jesus!

My dear children,

I come under the title of Our Lady of Hope. Little children, there are many lessons you can learn from this apparition and my appearance when I appeared in Pontmain, France, in 1871. I did not appear for all to see me. I appeared for the little children to see me. This is a great sign and lesson. that you all must become child-like in order to seek the Kingdom of God and in order to see Him, or me. Remember what Jesus said, in the Beatitudes, “Blessed are those who are pure in heart for they shall see God.”

I am the Mother of God and I come to tell you that purity of heart is long forgotten in this world. Little children, be as little children, completely trusting in My Son and my intercession. Turn your doubts into faith by accepting the graces God gives you and growing in grace with the graces that I give you.

I desire your heart to be pure. You must seek frequent reconciliation with Jesus through the Sacrament of Confession. I desire all children to love Jesus with a pure heart by giving of yourself in child-like, small acts. If you love Him, do not hold any areas of your life back from Him. Tell Jesus that you love Him and that you are willing to sacrifice whatever He desires, for Him.

I also came to announce to the world, hope. The only hope for this world is what I held in my hands, which is the Crucifix. Little children, there is hope in the suffering of Jesus because He leads you to salvation. There is hope in carrying your cross and following after my Son. There is hope for those who, with child-like love accept me as their mother and embrace Jesus and the circumstances that He sends to you each day.

The Cross brings hope because it brings your salvation. Do not turn from the Cross. Do not run from the Cross. Embrace your cross and you shall embrace my Son’s Cross. I’m sad as I was then. Many people failed to understand that, if they do not embrace their cross, they do not embrace Jesus’ Cross. Accept your sufferings, and hope for a better tomorrow, which is promised through the resurrection of my Son Jesus and through my merciful heart.

Nothing is impossible for God, but sometimes God allows you to go through a period of darkness so that when you receive the light, you rejoice, and you are able to embrace it and accept it more than had you been able to see the light at first.

I came with hope to lead you to my Son, hope that you would embrace Him and love Him as I love Him. You can grow in love with Jesus only through prayer. Call to Him and He will answer you. Seek an honest relationship with Jesus by giving of yourself to Him and by accepting Him as He is. I came, not only to offer hope, but to give you a sign that your prayers are heard and answered. I wrote, “but pray, my children, for my Son is willing to be touched: Or the other translation can be, but pray, my children, for my Son is willing to hear you.”

Jesus is willing to hear you if you are willing to love and embrace Him, all His wounds, all His suffering, even His very death. Embrace all of Jesus, and my Son shall embrace you. I bless you with the hope that only Jesus, my Son, can give you, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

I desire everyone to be with me in Paradise. There is suffering in this world, but there is also hope for those who love my Son and me. Because, like in Pontmain, in the midst of a war that was surrounding them, I was there, and through me my Son answered their prayers, and I am here today in the midst of so many trials, tribulations and sufferings to tell you that because I am here, and because of my intercession, Jesus will hear and answer you. I love you. I am Our Lady of Hope, and I thank you for responding to my call. And remember, little children, “but pray and my Son will hear you.” Pray from your hearts.

Next month, the 24^th of April, I shall appear as Our Lady of Knock. Go in the peace of God. (Oh, wait a minute. She’s not leaving yet. I forgot to describe what she looks like. She’s wearing a gold crown, it’s glowing. It’s not made of light, it’s a real gold crown. She’s wearing a dark black veil and her hair is long and dark. She’s wearing a long blue dress, long sleeves, too. It’s a light blue. Oh, she’s pointing to the Mother of Mercy picture. She’s says it’s not that light. It’s a little darker. Her dress is a little darker blue. I can see her feet and they are above a cloud, but she’s not standing on the cloud. Her feet are above it like she’s floating. The cloud is on the altar and she has a red cross, crucifix. It’s a wooden cross with the body of Christ is on it and it’s red because there’s blood on it, that’s why. It’s real blood. And her eyes are deep blue, and there are stars on her dress, and I’m going to say what I said before. The stars are twinkling and they are real stars like the ones I saw when she appeared under the title of Our Lady of Guadalupe. They’re real twinkling stars, like the night, and there’s a crown of 12 twinkling blue stars around her head, and she is immersed in a golden, white light. She’s laughing. Now she says,) Go in the peace of God.
