Message from Our Blessed Mother to Carlos Lopez December 18, 1996 Church of the Resurrection, El Salvador Dear Children, Praised be Jesus! My little ones, I desire this day that you pray for your inner peace. Many live saddened with themselves, for they do not know God. Without God your lives are empty. Many say they love Him, but the love they have for Him is an empty love, a false love, for they do not know Him. My Son desires that you love Him. How can you say that Jesus is your friend if you do not know Him? When you do not know Him, you cannot love Him, you cannot feel Him close to you. Pray, pray so that in these days of peace and of love, Jesus, who is Love, may be the one who gives you the grace of love, of inner peace and the grace of faith. In that way, my Son will reign in your hearts and in your lives, for He is Happiness and Joy. My little ones, may your love towards Him be sincere. My little ones, I desire that you know my Son and that your love and your friendship with Him may grow. I desire that you glorify Him for those who do not glorify Him, that you love Him for those that do not love Him, that you adore Him for those that do not adore Him. Thank you, my little ones, for having accepted my message of this night. I give you my motherly blessing. I leave you under my motherly mantle. Pray, pray, pray. I bless my beloved priests and may the Light of the Savior shine upon them. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
