Message from Our Blessed Mother to Carlos Lopez March 17, 1999 St. Bruno's Church, San Bruno, CA Dear Children, Praised be Jesus! Thank you for having accepted my invitation of this night. I come to beg you and to invite you, once again, to open your hearts to conversion and to the call which Jesus makes to you in your hearts. Why do many continue closing their hearts to my call and invitation to inherit Paradise and to the salvation of your souls? Why do many continue rejecting the Word of God, your True Peace, and rejecting His mercy? Jesus calls you and many act deaf. I desire that you belong to Jesus and to your Blessed Mother. Children, the day will come in which those called to inherit Paradise will recognize the voice of the Good Shepherd; however, others will not recognize the voice of their Master and they will be rejected. Jesus invites you, if you want to know Him, to come close to Him and to have a very close relationship with Him. In that way, you will learn to love Him, you will know Him better and you will give yourselves completely to His Will. But, there are many who because of the attractions of the world do not listen to Him; they reject Him. The distractions of the world have them very busy. My little ones, be like a bride and groom who in order to learn to love one another build a close relationship, day to day, to know one another and love one another with the heart. In that way, they will form a very strong and pure companionship with one another until it leads them to declare their love and respect for one another in Matrimony, before God, until death separates them. It is likewise with you. If you do not build a close and sincere relationship, daily, with Jesus, you will not learn to truly love Him nor to ever know Him. Listen to my motherly advise. I desire that you live close to Jesus and that you know Him also. His love for you is beyond all understanding. Allow me to help you and to guide you to Him always. Thank you for having accepted my message of this night. I give you my motherly blessing. I also lovingly bless all of my beloved priests who helped me this night. I leave you in the peace of the Lord. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
