Dear children; You are gathering around me, you are seeking your way, you are seeking, you are seeking the truth but are forgeting what is the most important, you are forgeting to pray properly. Your lips pronounce countless words, but your spirit does not feel anything. Wandering in darkness, you even imagine God Himself according to yourselves, and not such as He really is in His love. Dear children, proper prayer comes from the depth of your heart, from your suffering, from your joy, from your seeking the forgiveness of sins. This is the way to come to know the right God and by that also yourselves, because you are created according to Him. Prayer will bring you to the fulfillment of my desire, of my mission here with you, to the unity in God's family. Thank you. ”
(Our Lady of Medjugorje, Feb. 2, 2011)
